Marriage can be tough to deal with sometimes. There are rainy days and sunny days, but what makes it better is knowing that no matter what one is going through, they are not going through it alone.
Unfortunately, in marriage it is still possible to feel all alone. A true partner sticks by you in tough times, but when one abandons his partner regularly to do things like party and hang out with friends, they are basically asking for trouble.
Getting married is signing up for a partnership, and everyone should know that.
Yes, this is another classic tale of a man leaving his wife for the party. Here’s the full gist.
OP is a 30-year-old. She had an emergency C-section six weeks ago to give birth to their daughter who ended up in the NICU for two weeks. NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) is a ward for babies born prematurely or babies that are dangerously ill.
Giving birth itself is a tough and painful process, but having your baby wind up in the NICU is even more intense.
Being there for a wife who has been through this is only the bare minimum. But, I guess life gets in the way of good intentions.
OP’s baby almost died in the process, but she doesn’t feel the need to get into all that. Still, she said it took a toll on her mental health. An experience like that would clearly be a nightmare to any woman.
OP’s husband told her he was planning to go on a weekend bachelor party trip, which was a nine hour drive away from where they lived, within the next week. Aside from the newborn baby, they have a two-year-old.
