I Thought My Husband Was Proud to Show Me Off—Until His Best Friend Let the Secret Slip

87

The laughter, the splashing, the music—all of it faded as the truth hit me like a punch to the chest. Mark didn’t love me. He used me.

When Mark returned, smiling as if nothing was wrong, I looked at him differently. And for the first time, I didn’t shrink. I stood up, grabbed a towel, wrapped myself in it, and said, “We’re done here.”

His smile dropped instantly.

But I didn’t care. Because that was the moment I decided: I would never be someone’s trophy again. I’m staying at my sister’s now and talking to a lawyer.

Am I wrong for wanting to divorce him over this?
