Wife constantly wants to divorce me

For the other dads out there, do you guys face your wife constantly asking to divorce, especially in the 3rd trimester? It feels hard knowing that you try your best to give it your all only for her to say things like “its not enough”, “why am I not your priority?”, “you are not the same person I knew”. I know that they are going through some hormonal changes but it still hurts when your wife says things like these. Its not like anything major happened (to me at least). How do you guys cope with this feeling? #advicepls #pleasehelp #firstbaby #dad

Coming from a 5 month pp FTM myself, I have the same thought too. Don’t get me wrong, my husband is hardworking and loves us, for sure. But he’s so caught up with his work! All tired when he’s home, always on his phone for his “me time”, easily tired when bonding with baby, less involved in household chores and etc. All these make me wanna divorce him cause with or without him, there’s no difference! I don’t feel that he’s prioritising his family, especially now that we have a little baby. This is not what I sign up for when he said that he wants to start a family, he dedicates most of his time and energy to work. It hurts our relationship very badly. I hope you talk to your wife when the time is right, get things out and be heard. Take care and all the best!

Perhaps sometimes it is the guy’s role of feeling like he needs to be the provider. Especially in a place like Singapore where everything is so expensive from maids, infant care, childcare, baby things, etc. Also considering how the financial burden is on him to bring home money for the family, I can also see why he may be stressed and is doing what he can. No doubt there is always room for improvement and I am sure you also go through a lot of stress being a FTM but I hope that you guys can put yourselves in each other’s shoes
