My Husband Secretly Read My Diary for 3 Years?! 😱📖

Yesterday, I came home early to our Brooklyn apartment, hoping for a nap, and found Jake, my husband of five years, awkwardly shoving my diary back into its hiding spot. My heart dropped. He fumbled through excuses, but finally admitted he’s been reading it for three years—photocopying pages, even making notes and question marks around my entries about friends and family. He claims it’s out of concern, but all I feel is violated and small. My diary was my last safe space after giving up so much for this marriage—my job, my friends, my hobbies. Now, even my thoughts aren’t mine. Jake says I’m overreacting, but am I? Is this love or control? I feel lost, angry, and so alone. Would you forgive this? Or is this a dealbreaker? Please, I need your advice. 😩📝 #TrustIssues #MarriageProblems #PrivacyMatters #RelationshipAdvice #RomanticRelationships
