EMOTIONALLY UNAVAILABLE||Just found out a friend of mine is divorcing his wife who has stage 3 breast cancer. She didn't do anything awful. He said he had just grown apart from her.
He is no longer my friend and I clearly misjudged him as a man. She has always been kind to me. I'm going to see if she needs anything because he can't be a man. shameful. Am I being harsh? Did I break the bro code?
No, you simply don't divorce your wife while she is in cancer treatment because you can't handle it. This shows his character. And although he's showing that he is disappointing as a husband, she may be better off without him. The last thing someone fighting cancer needs is stress.
