A woman has shared how her husband admitted that she was not his first choice, explaining that he actually wanted her best friend.
The heartbroken wife, known as Amber, took to Reddit and explained that she had met her husband when she was 18 along with her best friend Sarah.
The three became best friends but when Sarah got a boyfriend, Amber told her now-husband that she had always had a crush on him and he also confessed to having romantic feelings.
Amber and her husband tied the knot when they were 22, and Sarah also got married to someone else.
Ten years later, Sarah and her husband came over for dinner and that’s when Amber’s husband made a revelation in front of all of them.
“We had invited my best friend and her husband around for dinner and we were joking about the things we got up to and my husband brought up how he always had a crush on my best friend and then she got a boyfriend so he settled for me instead,” Amber wrote.
“When I tell you my whole world just came crashing down,” the wife continued.
“I realized my marriage of 10 years was him settling for second best. That I was never his first option. After that everything he did just started to annoy me and he just stopped being attractive to me anymore.”
Amber revealed that they have not slept together in six months. “I just want out. I feel like I’ve wasted my life.”
In another post, Amber said that she received a text message form Sarah’s husband asking if she knew where his wife was.
“Can you guess where she is? HE IS AT MY F***ING HOUSE WITH MY F***ING HUSBAND! What weird f***ing universe am I living in? Anyway, I’m leaving and taking all my stuff with me. My mum will have to put up with me for a while. Divorce is definitely happening.”
Reddit users were also shocked by the story, with one person replying: “She should leave and find a new friend as well.”
Another commented: “10 years of her life gone, what a sad story.”
