“A Waste Of A Pretty Face”: Woman Divorces Husband Of 6 Years Over A Puzzle

There’s nothing wrong with having different interests from your significant other. For one, having separate hobbies from your partner allows you to grow as a person and try new things. Therapists even claim that couples who share too much in common often become bored in the relationship.

But Redditor MotherNegotiation42’s husband wasn’t exactly supportive of her separate activities. He would often make snarky comments about her staying at home and working on her prized puzzles. Recently, they had an intense fight about it, making her realize she hated the person she’s been married to for six years.

Scroll down to find the full story and a conversation with the original author, Mother_Negotiation42, and relationship expert, founder, and CEO of Couples Experience, Tamika Carlton, who kindly agreed to tell us more about couples and hobbies.
