Husband reveals that he wants to divorce his wife because she was not understanding when he was sick

A husband has admitted he is considering divorcing his wife because she did not take him seriously when he had a sinus infection.

The anonymous 29-year-old man took to Reddit to describe the situation in a thread titled: Am I exaggerating??

He explained that his illness made him realize that his wife, 28, “doesn’t really care” about him.

The man said he was hospitalized for eight days with a severe sinus infection.

He stated that his wife’s behavior during her illness made him wonder if she was the one he wanted to spend the rest of his life with.

The man asked people on the web for advice while wondering whether or not he was exaggerating the situation.

He titled the post: “Am I overreacting for wanting to divorce my wife because of her behavior while I was sick?”

At the beginning of the post, it said: ‘In November, I was hospitalized for eight days due to a severe sinus infection. During this time, I realized that my wife doesn’t really care about me.

‘It all started in October while we were in a restaurant. I felt dizzy, nauseous and like I was about to collapse, with my heart rate rising to 150 (I’m a fit, athletic man).

‘We went to the hospital, where they did the usual tests and told me it was just a panic attack, something I had never experienced before.

‘Over the next two weeks, I ended up in hospital two more times. Each time, my wife seemed upset, like I was overreacting, and the doctors insisted that they were still panic attacks.

Then I got a fever. I hesitated to mention it because I was afraid I would be dismissed as dramatic.

‘But when the fever got worse, I finally went to the hospital, and this time they started to take me seriously.

“They admitted me, but they couldn’t figure out what was wrong. After two days on antibiotics and still no answers, they sent me home.

‘When the fever came back, I felt terrible. My wife still didn’t take me seriously and insisted it was just panic attacks.

“It wasn’t until the fever persisted for almost a week that they finally did a full body scan and discovered I had a serious sinus infection.”

The man noted that as his condition worsened, his wife continued to fire him.

He added: “The infection was so serious because the doctors initially wasted time diagnosing me with panic attacks instead of looking for the real problem.”

‘I’m paying a fortune for private healthcare and I was hoping to be taken seriously. It took him weeks to recover from the neglect.

‘I thought my wife would be more worried, but her behavior made me realize I needed to get away from her.

‘Every time I needed to go to the hospital, she would get irritated and act like I was a burden to carry.

‘Even after she was diagnosed with the infection, she continued to insist it was just panic attacks. Asking him to take me by car seemed like a huge ordeal.’

The man explained that after being cured he decided to have surgery to ‘prevent future infections’.

But when he later began to feel “pain” and had to return to the hospital, his wife became outraged again.

People online flooded the comments section with their thoughts, with many urging him to divorce his wife.

‘They advised me to have surgery to prevent future infections, which I had on the 21st. They told me to monitor my symptoms and go to the hospital if I felt unwell,’ he continued.

‘For the last two days I have had pain in my face and last night the symptoms worsened.

‘I asked her to take me to the hospital, but she was walking furious. When I asked him, he had no answer.

“She seems to be convinced that I’m just a drama queen who still suffers from panic attacks.”

At the end of the post, he revealed that his wife’s action had made him feel like she didn’t care about him.

‘He finally drove me over and the doctor confirmed that I had a small infection that started in the area of ​​my surgery. I was right again,’ he wrote.

‘To be honest, I want to divorce her. If I thought she was in danger I would do anything for her, but her cold and indifferent behavior while I was sick made me question everything. Am I exaggerating? I’m 29 and she’s 28.’

People online flooded the comments section with their thoughts, with many urging him to divorce his wife.

One person said: “Yes, she should be there for you and not make you feel like a burden.”

Another user added: ‘I’m not reacting too much. If I am in your place I will start the process. Life is too short.

Someone else commented: ‘In my 10 years of marriage, I have faced many health battles.

‘My husband has never made me feel like an inconvenience. And he had to clean my ass and heal several wounds. You’re with the wrong one, friend.
