u/imtrying__mybest I’m pretty sure you’re a troll tbh but cheaters often act the way you do so I’m going to talk to you seriously as though you are a real person.

I want you to answer genuinely, do you love your wife? Do you care about her? You’re so apathetic about her possibly having a mental disorder that could cause her serious harm that I genuinely don’t think so. Your wife has been showing serious signs of PPD for years now and you haven’t really taken any action. She told you she was struggling to bond with her child, so you decided that her attempts to rectify that weren’t good enough and took her baby away from her? And you’re shocked that she had trouble bonding. You took her child after she went back to work, you purposely blocked her attempts to bond.

You are having an affair, whether you want to admit it or not. You are seriously mistreating your wife and you are attempting to justify it to yourself by weaponising her mental illness against her. Honestly you disgust me. As I right this my heart hurts for your wife. Her explosion is because she noticed. She noticed you took her child from her, that you don’t care about her health. That you share a bed and cuddle with your friend. That you okay house with her own child instead of checking up on her. You admit to fantasising about him, you respond to sexual comments about him in the thread. You’re so committed to the martyr role, framing yourself in a good light because you know you’re in the wrong, you know that your relationship with Matt is innnapropriate and you know that you’re mistreating your wife.

Honestly the responses to this post are abhorrent, repossessed like these are what discourage women with PPD from getting help.

I pray that after your inevitable separation your wife gets a partner who actually cares about her.
