So recently my wife (26F) confessed something to me (30M) which broke my heart big time. A year ago we were living with my nephew because the school which he was going was near to my place. He came in and we stayed for about three months and at that time my wife was pregnant. He was a good boy, well behaved and minding his own business. Surprisingly my wife did not like his company, she did not like seeing him around.
There was an incident which happened, normally I put some stash of cash at home maybe when I come with the money from my business. I placed it around because I was sure everything was safe, so one day something happened and I lost a certain amount of money. When I asked about it, my wife pinned it on my nephew which was abnormal because I have never heard anything that he has done like that. My wife convinced me that it was my nephew who took the money. She said he was in campus and he might need some cash to do his own things because he was pretty young.
I asked him if he took anything but he said he did not take anything. According to the trust issues which were there, I had to get my nephew out of the house and take him back at home so that we can figure some way of solving the issue. Finally I decided to move on and I just gave my nephew the benefit of doubt, I paid the hostel for him to live on his own and my wife was happy.
So recently after a year my wife finally confesses to me that she took the money and she hid the money and it was not my nephew. She just wanted him out of our house. I was so surprised, but she blamed it on the pregnancy. She said it was just messing around, it wasn’t a big deal to that’s why she did whatever she did. It really hit me hard, because I stopped trusting my nephew, which was wrong of me.
At this point, I don’t know who to blame. I don’t know whether I should blame myself or blame my wife because she said it was the pregnancy. She said that because she was pregnant she made such that decision out of her moods at the moment. It makes me feel a lot of pain for whatever I did at that time and pushed my nephew out. I thought that the best way to release this pain is to just say it out so that I can have peace before I take any step.
