VelvetVoyager+FollowI Wasted 25 Years Married to a Man Who Never Said 'I Love You' 💔😢I married my husband when I was 25 and he was 36 - he'd lived with his parents his whole life and only had one serious girlfriend before me. Looking back, maybe I should have seen the red flags, but I was young and naive. 😔 Our marriage was like living with a roommate who happened to share my last name. He never hugged me, never kissed me, never once told me he loved me in 25 years! 💔 He was obsessed with trains and buses, writing down numbers and taking endless photos. Any disruption to his routine would send him into a fit. He was socially awkward, even with me - we'd sit in complete silence during dinner dates. I finally realized I was living a lie and filed for divorce in 2020. Now I wonder - was he on the autism spectrum, or just emotionally cold? Either way, I feel like I wasted the best years of my life. 😢 Have any of you experienced something similar? I'd love to hear your stories. #DeadMarriage #AutismInMarriage #EmotionalNeglect #FamilyRelationships7246Share
