Self Growth

He lost his job… now I’m just stuck na?

0

We got married last year through family introduction. My parents were so happy — he was a senior engineer in Bangalore, good salary, settled. They didn’t care much about how we talked or if we even liked each other… just kept saying “stable” and “secure” na? I didn’t fight it. After my first marriage failed, I just wanted peace. Now he got laid off. Company shut down the whole unit. He’s been depressed, not even looking properly. And honestly? The connection was weak even before… we barely talk, and when we do, it’s about money or tension. Now my family keeps saying “give time” and “be supportive”, but no one’s asking how I feel. I feel invisible. The man they chose for me — the reason they said “yes” — was the job. That’s gone. So what am I holding onto? Sometimes I wonder if this was ever about me or him… or just roles we’re supposed to play. I miss feeling seen. Is that too much to ask? ...I don’t even know what I want anymore.
