59 Husbands Who Did Something So Unforgivable That Divorce Was The Only Option Left

My ex had his daughter over for the weekend, on Saturday night we woke up to all our fire alarms screaming. He grabbed his phone, put his trainers and jacket on and grabbed his motorbike keys and ran outside. I grabbed his not even 2 year old daughter, her winter sleep suit a blanket and his dog. I was still in my shorts and Tshirt. No shoes, nothing. It was minus 7 Celsius (19 Fahrenheit) thankfully our home want on fire but it filled with smoke. It was the neighbour downstairs. He fell asleep drunk and burnt his kitchen down. I had to phone for the fire brigade too, while consoling his daughter. It took hours to air the house out of smoke, it stank for weeks afterwards. I never looked at him the same after that.

One time we were walking downtown and a random man walked up to us and was talking. The man mentioned cutting someone with a CD. My then husband walked away and left me there with that man.

Doctor told me I had pneumonia and had to immediately go to hospital. Husband at the time refused to take me to hospital because he was cooking a chicken and couldn’t leave it.

I had my tubes tied, my ex husband picked up a shift the same day when he was supposed to be helping me with recovery because i couldn’t walk more than a few feet without being in excruciating pain. My mom had to take care of me instead, it was humiliating.

We were white water rafting and trained that if someone across the boat from you falls off to reach over and grab them by the vest to pull them back on. I was sitting across from my bf. We hit a rock, I go overboard into the cold water, and I look up to see my now ex staring at me, frozen. The teenage kid sitting behind me reached in and grabbed me. The whole boat was like after that.

My Exs sister was pregnant. Her and her husband had watched a scary movie in theater and came home, they went into their apartment and he saw himself in the mirror. He freaked out thinking it was an intruder and pushed his pregnant wife into the apartment and ran out. They are still together.

I bled too much after my son was born and I was in the OR longer than anticipated....he left with his family to get something to eat. When I was brought to my room I was completely alone.

One time it was my birthday, and I got pneumonia, I was bedridden, and my ex suddenly decided to fly several states away to visit his parents randomly. The next morning I had to take our three kids to school and I had to pull over several times during that 4 mile drive to breathe and cry. I had to drive myself to urgent care two times while he was gone because of the pneumonia.

We took a trip to a national park and I thought “please universe, if he isn’t for me give me a sign…” a couple of hours later he is driving my car and goes into a HUGE pothole and we got a flat tyre. We stopped in the middle of nowhere and he goes “I have no idea what to do” while standing there, so I changed the tyre pretty much by myself and when we get in the car again he said “I’m so glad you are my GF, any other woman would have broken up with me over this” and that’s when I realised, he was giving me NOTHING and he knew I would accept it…

I was 9 months pregnant and started to go into labor at midnight. He said he was gonna go back to sleep because he was gonna be tired, so he wanted to make sure HE was rested up, as my contractions were getting stronger. he told me to wake him up when the baby was coming.

I choked on food at dinner, managed to clear it but was still having trouble swallowing and was coughing and started to have a panic attack and managed to say "I'm so scared"... and he got up from the table where he had been looking at me like went and sat on the couch and turned the TV on... while I was still struggling to clear my airway.
I didn't leave for another year.

My ex husband claimed he was a “bad boy” and all that jazz and then one night something came crashing down in our house and instead of grabbing his bad boy pewpew to go see what was happening; I thought we were being robbed, he grabbed the covers and slid under them shaking.

I grabbed a baseball bat and went and investigated myself. A picture fell off the wall and crashed the stuff on the table under it. I cleaned it up. He was still in bed. Didn’t come out once to ask what it was. I left him shortly after this. This was just the straw moment. Many things like this had happened.

My car smashed into the side of a mountain at 55mph. After 911 was auto-dialed, I called him to let him know the ambulance was coming to take me to the ER. 8.5 hours later, he hadn’t called to check on me once, hadn’t come to be with me, didn’t handle any of the car or insurance stuff, and wouldn’t answer my calls when I was being discharged. The hospital called in a social worker and tried ordering an uber for me home (45 mins away).

A bear was running down the sidewalk (it was trying to get away from a ranger after it came into town because some nerd put out their trash far too early with no proper lid) Anyway, he took off down the sidewalk yelling "run" (I know you're not supposed to run from bears now, we were buzzed and weren't aware til after) I caught up to him in the store he went into and I said "hah! you left me!" and he said "well you have more meat on you" and gestured to my body.

Even after divorce I text him that our teenage daughter is having emergency appendectomy surgery. He texts back four hours later “thx for letting me know”. Never asked about any details or outcome.

My very first date after leaving my ex husband was at a restaurant/bar to see a live band. The man and I were standing at the bar to get a drink when a small fight broke out. He jumped BEHIND me and shrieked. You know what? I’m gonna go. Thanks.

We got swarmed by yellow jackets while cleaning the yard. As I was running away I felt his hand try to grab my arm to run past me and he slipped and fell and that is the only reason he didn't push past me.

I will never be able to unsee "men marry because it looks good to other men. Not because of sentiment."

Yeah, why do people think ‘Women and children first’ became a saying.
