loneliness

We’ve been married 8 months, and I still find little things — her scarf tucked in a drawer, photos on his phone he hasn’t deleted. When I ask, he says 'It’s just memories, habibi, nothing more.' But i...

So we’ve been seeing each other for five months, right? Things got serious fast — dinners at my mom’s, weekend trips, the whole deal. Then last night, after wine, she goes, 'I love you, but I think we...

My husband, Misha, hasn’t touched me in over a year. Not angry, not fighting — just… gone. Like I’m furniture. He says I work too much, that I’m not the ‘soft woman’ he married. But I had to work. His...

We've been together 3 years, on and off. She’s always been a bit reserved, but now it’s like… we’re flatmates who catch up for beers. Talks to me like I’m her work mate or something, not someone she’s...

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 li...

We’ve been married 7 years, & honestly it feels like I’ve been holding this whole thing together. Every night it’s the same thing — he comes home stressed from work, pours out every little problem, an...

We’ve been together for 6 years, almost getting married next year. Out of nowhere, she said she needs a break kasi she’s ‘confused’. I respected it, didn’t message her much, just a simple check-in onc...

We’ve been together for four years and I still haven’t met his family. Not once. Not even by accident. His cousins know about me but act surprised when I mention his name like… what am I supposed to t...

This life sha... I never thought I'd feel more alone with someone than without. We've been married just over a year, and at first it was sweet — he’d call me every evening, we'd eat together, talk abo...

We've been together 5 years, married 2. Met through friends, he's not Teochew but family said okay after some convincing. Ma said his zodiac and mine — Tiger and Dog — not ideal, but we trying so supp...

We've been together 4 years, and every time I bring up marriage, she says she wants to get married… just after this promotion. Then later, after the next one. First it was Senior Exec, now it's Assist...

We’ve been together 6 years, married 2. He’s good man — works hard, respects my family, never raises voice. But when he comes home I feel nothing. Not anger, not sadness. Just… empty. Like I’m watchin...

i was with my girlfriend for 4 years and we lived together most of that time. we both said we were saving ourselves for marriage but then we kept making exceptions and it just felt wrong every time. i...

my wife starts crying the second I say anything about needing space. like last night, I asked if I could go to my brother’s place for a few days, just to clear my head, and she broke down. sobbing, sa...

I’ve been thinking about moving to Canada for a while now. Got a job offer in Vancouver last month and it’s everything I wanted — quiet, space, nature nearby. But my wife… her whole family is here. Pa...

we’ve been married 8 years, two kids, house in Atlanta… on paper? perfect. people always say how y’all got it together. my wife works hard, she’s a good mom, we laugh, we talk, we don’t fight over dum...

I've been with my partner for 5 years, we met in uni & everything was perfect, but then he got a job in London and I stayed back in Wales. The distance has been killing me, feels like I'm just going t...

From a logical standpoint — if someone claims communication is their strength, they’d ask how you’re doing once in a while. Right? Objectively speaking, Marco has never — not once — asked me how I fee...

So we’ve been together 3 years, engaged for the last 6 months. Used to party a lot back in college—me and my fiancée both, but now she’s all about early dinners with her parents, church on Sunday, the...

We’ve been married for 8 months, set up by our families. First few weeks were rough but then she told me out of nowhere, "I think I’m starting to love you." Made me so happy... we even planned video c...
