‘You’re selfish’: Man Orchestrates His Divorce to Be at the Right Moment For Him, Her Family Comes After Him in Response

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Manipulation can look like many things. It can be under the covers of the obvious, not necessarily very noticeable. That's how it works so well when it does, because it comes when someone least expects it. It sneaks up on you, adding to the frustration and anger when you notice. 

Divorce can be ugly, and it usually is. It's not always mutual, and there could be issues with court cases, splitting custody, and finances. At some point, it will all be over, but until then it's a pain. 

In this Reddit thread, the man has been wanting a divorce for a long time. His wife refuses to go to counseling, and he feels like he's fighting for them alone. He's picked up a lot of the chores and other responsibilities between them, and he reaches the point where he can't do it anymore. Although he didn't favor the timing of his decision, he waited until it felt perfect for him.
