This is NOT INFREQUENT amongst couples where the woman gets seriously ill/develops a degenerative/chronic illness. I’ve seen it amongst my circle of acquaintances. It’s everything to do with upbringing. Women are still seen as caregivers so anything that inverts that dynamic is emasculating. 🤮

Mrs K's friend's husband left them after they were diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer. He shared his thoughts about the journey but then disappeared after decades of marriage. What is it with these people who have no substance? I'm often told how good I am to Mrs K. Like it's even a choice.
