I went to ask for advice on my husband because I didn't know how to bring it up with him. I even made a different account so he wouldn't find it on my usual one.<br><br>The advice I got was mostly positive and really helpful, but the one comment that stuck with me was the one calling me insecure and in need of therapy.<br><br>It made me feel so bad but it also made me realize I need help. His hilarious jokes and observations started to hurt my feelings whenever he made them. I realized I'm insecure because of his sense of humor, but I have been working on it.<br><br>It was my birthday in July and for my birthday, he got me a beautiful necklace, and then he went to his ex wife for dinner. It hurt me a lot, but he was very apologetic about it and promised it would never happen again. It was a surprise to both of us and he didn't know how to say no since it was a celebration of their divorce, but they didn't tell me.<br><br>I forgave him, and he's been perfect since then.<br><br>However, they've been getting together a couple of times a week, "as friends" and I'm really scared history will repeat itself and he will hurt me again.<br><br>I didn't know how to bring it up and I felt like I was being insecure again, so I posted on chambers for advice.<br><br>I feel like I need to talk to him about it but every time I even mention her, he just gets defensive and tells me not to worry about it. He says they're not a threat to my marriage, they're just "friends" now and that he loves me, but seeing them together so much makes me so uncomfortable, and the fact that he didn't tell me for weeks hurts even worse.<br><br>I didn't know what to do so I asked for advice, and the only comment that actually made me realize what's going on is the one calling me insecure.<br><br>I'm done being a fool and I'm going to talk to my husband about it. I deserve better.<br><br>Thank you for your time.<br><br>Edit: I appreciate all the comments, but he wasn't celebrating their divorce, just the end of their divorce litigation. I don't know how they made up after a divorce like that, but they did and are close "friends" now.<br><br>He was right, the post about my birthday was too long and I didn't want to make him look bad.
