The article presents testimonials from married men sharing their regrets about their marriages, sourced from the BuzzFeed Community and Reddit. Many stories depict experiences ranging from emotional and physical abuse to feelings of neglect and being used for citizenship. One man discusses a rapid marriage due to visa concerns, leading to severe abuse, while another recounts a long marriage marked by emotional loneliness and lack of intimacy. These stories highlight the complex emotional struggles in relationships and the consequences of unresolved issues, reflecting on how love can sometimes turn into regret.
I was from the UK, and she was American. Basically, she was the woman of my dreams; I moved to the USA so we could live together. We married WAY too quickly, but it was easier visa-wise to stay together. The abuse started small, but got more severe over time. Physically, mentally, and emotionally abusive. I think there was some mental illness there, but she never bothered to find out. She finally cheated on me for a few months, and she gaslit me so much and was so cruel that I moved back to the UK and had a mental breakdown. From that to now, I'm remarried to a wonderful woman, who makes me happy every day.
I have been married for over 23 years. We have two grown children together and shared some great times and adventures. Unfortunately, lately she has had zero drive to do anything. She sits in bed anytime she is at home, watching TV and being on her phone on social media. There is no sex. I stay active and healthy playing sports and building projects. My focus is the kids, so I spend my time with them doing activities and listening to what they say and how they are navigating life. The negative comments and constant nagging have left me lonely and emotionally unavailable. I haven't cheated, but I know there has to be more to life than this. If you are a woman reading this, don't think that because you love your husband, you can just keep dumping on him, and he will accept it. If he stopped arguing, doesn't ask for intimacy, and is generally quiet, he is moving on.
She used me for citizenship. She continued to steal money from my bank account without my knowledge.
