Traveling to Mexico had been a dream come true for me. My husband, my two children, and I were about to embark on an unforgettable adventure. But what started as an exciting family vacation soon became a heartbreaking reality for me.
From the very beginning, I noticed something off about my husband’s behavior. Whenever I asked him to take a picture of me, he would always decline, saying, “Not now, Hannah” or “I’m not in the mood, maybe later.” I was confused. Taking a picture only took a couple of seconds—time he was unwilling to spare for me. His refusal went on for days, and I started to question why he was acting this way.
I had planned to tell him about a recent inheritance from my late uncle, but his behavior made me hesitate. Then, one day, he left his phone on the bed, unlocked, while he took a shower. I knew it was wrong, but I couldn’t ignore the suspicion that had been building inside me.
Curiosity got the best of me, and I checked his phone. That’s when I found the message in a group chat with his friends that shattered my world. It read: “Imagine, guys, at her weight, she still wants me to take pictures of her. In what part of the picture would she possibly fit? Since giving birth, she has changed completely.”
His cruel words were a slap in the face. I had no idea that he thought so lowly of me, especially when it came to my appearance.
Without hesitation, I posted a picture of myself online with the caption: “Is my appearance so unattractive that even my spouse is reluctant to have me photographed?” The response I received was overwhelming, with so many comments and messages of support flooding in.
When Luke returned from the shower and saw my post, he pretended to be clueless about why I did it. I reminded him of the message he had sent to his friends. Then, I dropped a bombshell: “By the way, I inherited my uncle’s property and assets, so I’m moving to his house, and I’m separating from you.”
His apology came, but it wasn’t for the right reasons. He was apologizing because of the money, not because he genuinely regretted his hurtful words.
I packed my bags, took my children, and left. I couldn’t stay with someone who made me feel so worthless. The future is uncertain, but one thing I know for sure is that I deserve better than a man who doesn’t value me.
