After her husband criticized her for smelling like fish, the woman poured an entire basin of fish over herself and then declared something that left her husband speechless: “Let’s get a divorce…”
I met my husband when he was still in school. Back then, he was very poor and didn’t have the money to continue his studies. In his third year, he wanted to drop out, but I absolutely refused. I even said I would earn money to support him.
Perhaps after six years of marriage, this is the first time my husband has felt afraid of me, and also the first time I’ve felt afraid of myself. My husband is a businessman, earning hundreds of millions of dong every month. Unlike other wives, I don’t stay home spending my husband’s money; I still work outside the home.
My family has a tradition of selling seafood. After graduating, I got into university, but at that time, my parents went bankrupt, so I had to give the opportunity to my younger siblings. I went out to sell seafood with my mother. I’ve always been proud of my work. Because I don’t cheat in business, and the goods I sell are always of high quality.
I met my husband when he was still in school. Back then, he was very poor and didn’t have money to continue his studies. In his third year, he wanted to drop out, but I absolutely refused. I said I would earn money to support him. From then until he finished his studies, I single-handedly managed the finances, from tuition fees to living expenses.
After graduating and establishing a stable career, my husband and I decided to get married. I thought my marriage would have a happy ending, but it wasn’t. My husband became increasingly unreasonable and demanding. He thought that because he earned money, he wanted me to stay home, be a housewife, and take care of the children. When I disagreed, he would hurl insults at me.
This is our sixth year of marriage. But the respect my husband shows me is dwindling. Yesterday, my car broke down, and it was dark, so I asked my husband to pick me up. When he arrived, he was visibly annoyed. He said, “I told you to close down this restaurant. Every time I come home, I reek of fish; it’s clinging to me!”
I tried to reason with him, but it didn’t work. So, all the pent-up frustration accumulated, and I poured a whole basin of fishy water over myself and said bluntly, “This is how I am. If you can’t stand it or are ashamed, then let’s separate. It’s not that difficult.” After that, I proactively called a taxi to go home, and my husband didn’t even apologize. That’s it, everyone, I’m truly disappointed by my husband’s behavior. Honestly, at this moment, I’m willing to accept a divorce to free myself from this. At most, I’ll take my children and leave; it’s better to raise them with a little financial hardship than to live with a father like that.
