That night, I quietly took some of my things and moved to the guest room, expecting she'd feel bad and come to call me back 💔💔💔
I had a misunderstanding with my wife recently and to be honest, I'm still struggling with how she reacted.
One morning, while she was getting ready for work, she sprayed her antiperspirant the kind with a strong fragrance. I was still in bed, asleep, and the smell made me choke and start sneezing. I woke up angry and lashed out at her, asking if she didn't know I react badly to strong scents like that.
She immediately apologized and said she was sorry, but I was too upset to calm down and kept going on about it.
Then she snapped. She said, "All the times you're in bed while I'm getting ready, don't you also spray your antiperspirant without caring how it affects me? I also react to strong fragrances, and sometimes I wake up coughing because of it, have you ever apologized? And what about how you play football highlights or social media videos at full volume at 4 a.m. while I'm asleep?
I've never complained. Just this one time, you lash out at me. Don't I have feelings too? Am I not human?"
Then she got dressed and left the room without another word. I was stunned. Her words hurt, and I didn't expect her to speak to me that way, especially after waking me up like that.
Later that day, I got back from work, expecting that she would say something or apologize again, but nothing.
That night, I quietly took some of my things and moved to the guest room, expecting she'd feel bad and come to call me back. But instead, she locked the bedroom door and went to sleep.
It's been three months now. We still live in the same house and she goes about her duties, she cooks, cleans, takes care of the kids but there's no communication between us. She doesn't look at me, doesn't speak, and doesn't seem to care.
Meanwhile, I've been in the guest room all this time, expecting some form of apology or effort to reconcile. In the past, she would have come crying, pleading for forgiveness. Now, she seems cold and unmoved, it's like her heart has turned to stone.
I'm too ashamed to tell family or friends what started the silence, it feels too petty to explain. But at the same time, I can't bring myself to be the one to apologize.
My pride won't let me move back to the bedroom because I fear she'll mock me or feel like she's won.
I don't understand how things got to this point, how she changed from someone who would beg me to forgive her to someone who now acts like nothing happened.
I'm hurt, but I don't know how to make her realize that I'm still waiting for her to acknowledge my pain and apologize.
What can I do???🥲💔
Please help I need your advice 🙏🙏
