>>9891742I have a story to make you feel a little better about your own.
I've been with my wife since the late 90s. I joined the army in the early 2000s, as an officer, and the money was pretty good. I deployed a few times and developed significant PTSD from from the constant car bombs, mortars, and rocket attacks targeting my FOB (a shitty ad hoc "base"). Anyway, one night a couple years ago, I go into a tail spin and put myself into the master bedroom closet with a shotgun. I was contemplating suicide, and my wife didn't know how to help me, so she called the police. They show up, and shoot me 3 times out of the 14 rounds fired at me with an AR-15 and 40cal. Afterwards, I was in debilitating pain because of the nerve damage, and I still am, at times. Anyway, she started viewing me as a burden. I wasn't working and bringing in the six figures that I was pulling beforehand. She started leaving me at home, while she drank with people in the neighborhood until very late at night. I became socially isolated, except for our children, whom I cared for while she was out. We argued about this, then she started staying out all night. Not coming home until the next day, sometimes well into the afternoon. Now she's divorcing me, trying to take my home, cars, and the children. She says I'm a danger to her and the children, which is fucking horseshit, but I have to get that sorted out in the divorce courts. I provided for this woman all of my adult life, and it counts for nothing, because now I'm injured and "complain too much." I also disapprove of her friends, who are fucking faggots. Bitterness doesn't begin to describe what I feel. I find myself fantasizing about the sun going supernova.
