His Wife Found His Old Diary, Where He Wrote About Still Being Deeply In Love With His Ex-Girlfriend Just Months Before They Met, So Now She Feels Like A Rebound
This 30-year-old man and his wife, who’s also 30, have been together for nine years and married for four years. They also have two children, and up until recently, things in their relationship were great.
However, after he and his wife visited his parents’ home last month, everything changed.
For some context, his parent’s house has a large attic with a closet, where he used to spend a lot of time during his childhood. So, during the visit, his wife was in the attic when she came across one of his old diaries from about 10 years ago.
“I had no issues with it and nothing to hide, and my wife was very excited to read the diary,” he recalled.
Yet, he completely forgot that he’d written a ton about his ex-girlfriend, who he was dating just a few months before he met his wife.
Back then, he and his ex had dated for nearly seven years, and he was deeply in love with her. But she wound up moving back to Serbia, her home country, and they ended things.
At the time, he and his ex agreed not to reach out to each other ever again since his ex had no intention of returning to the U.S. anyway.
“The breakup really hurt, and I wrote a lot of my thoughts in the diary. It had all sorts of love letters, my deep feelings for my ex, and how I would do anything to be with her again,” he explained.
Although just a few months after he and his ex broke up, he ultimately met his current wife.

He made it clear that he didn’t view his current wife as a rebound when they first started dating. Even so, he also didn’t take their relationship super seriously in the beginning since he wasn’t completely over his ex.
Still, after he went out with his now-wife for about a year, he fell head over heels in love with her – practically forgetting all about his ex-girlfriend.
“The issue is that my wife read all those thoughts in my diary, including the timeline, as every entry had a date on top of it,” he revealed.
That’s why she has been incredibly sad and believes that she was just a rebound.
He’s tried telling her that he loved her and never saw her that way. Plus, he claimed that they shouldn’t take what went on in college so seriously.
Despite his reassurances, he feels like his wife has been “a complete shell of herself” ever since she read his diary.
“I am very worried now because we have a stable life. I love my wife and our children,” he vented.
He has attempted to show her how much he cares, too, by writing her love letters and taking her out on dates.
Nonetheless, she simply cannot get over it, and now, he’s worried that his old diary may actually ruin their marriage.
Is there anything else he can do to prove to his wife that he truly loves her? Might she just need more time? What would you do in his shoes?
