My marriage to my husband was once envied by everyone. We met on campus, fell in love with each other in youth, and entered the palace of marriage hand in hand. However, as time goes on, the beauty of marriage is gradually shattered by reality.
The husband is a game fan, and from the occasional entertainment at first, to the later addiction to it, his life is gradually occupied by games. When night falls, he sits in front of the computer and begins his "game life". The sound of keyboard tapping and mouse clicking has become the main theme of the night in our home. I tried to understand him, thinking that it was just a way for him to relax, but gradually, I found that it had become an excuse for him to escape reality and ignore me and our marriage.
I have communicated with him many times, hoping that he can reduce the time of playtime and more *** married life. But every time the communication ended in an argument, he said in a heartfelt way that he had the right to choose his own way of life and that I should not interfere. I felt extremely disappointed and helpless, this marriage seemed to have become a one-man show, I struggled alone on the stage, and he was immersed in the virtual world and could not extricate himself.
Eventually, I filed for divorce. At that moment, his eyes revealed shock and incomprehension, as if I was the one who betrayed the marriage. Our marriage came to an end like this, there was no third party, no quarrels, just his obsession with the game and my disappointment with the marriage.
After the divorce, I started a new life. Although I still have regrets and reluctance in my heart, I know that this is the right choice I have made for my own happiness. I rediscovered myself and started to focus on my growth and development. And he continued his "game life", and the connection between us gradually diminished until it disappeared completely.
However, three years later, a piece of news made me cross paths with him again. He died suddenly, collapsed in the middle of a continuous all-night game, and never woke up. The news came as a bolt from the blue, and I was shocked. I can't believe that the person who used to be with me has left this world like this.
I began to reflect on our marriage and his passing. If he had realized the impact of the game on him earlier, if he had been able to make changes for the sake of our marriage, maybe none of this would have happened. However, there are no ifs in life, only results. I deeply regret his passing, and it also makes me cherish my current life even more.
This experience made me deeply realize that marriage needs to be managed by both parties. When one partner becomes obsessed with the virtual world and neglects the love and companionship of the other partner, the balance of marriage can be unbalanced. And when this imbalance reaches a certain level, the marriage is in danger of breaking down.
At the same time, I also understood the fragility and preciousness of life. We can't ** the future, but we can cherish the present. We should cherish every moment with the people around us and pay attention to their needs and feelings to make our lives more fulfilling and meaningful.
Now, I have come out of the shadows of the past and started a new life. I hope that through my experience, I can remind more people to cherish marriage, cherish life, and create a better future together. And the death of my husband has also become an eternal pain in my heart, reminding me to cherish the present more and live my own life.
