For many years she lived happily with her husband, but she got to know his real face only when he retired.

24 years ago I married a military man. And it all started so sweetly.

We met at a friend’s wedding. Although the military town turned out to be gloomy, but the people there are good – everyone is friends. So I stayed in the garrison. Immediately after the wedding we received housing. And years later we moved to a large apartment near the garrison.

Two children, a frantic pace of life, picnics, constant absence of my husband on duty, guests: all this was to my liking. I almost did not have to work, because there was no need.

My husband was in such a position that everything was free. Even numerous repairs were not done at our expense. But over the years, friends moved away, children went to study, and my husband, as soon as he turned 50, retired. It was extremely unexpected. This is where the excitement began – it was unusual to be in the house all the time side by side with a man who was always on duty.

And then there was an epidemic, it was impossible to go out. The man started picking on me, and even the dog. One rescue was the summer, he left the house for a long time. But in autumn everything happened again. He walks, whines, dissatisfied with everything. My only wish was for him to go to work somewhere, not to stay at home.

He did not want to return to the service, and he was not going to work anywhere. And his pension was good. I tried to find him a job myself, but no one was going to hire former warrant officers.

In places where they agreed to hire him, the man flatly refused to work. The situation is hopeless: it became cramped at home for both of them and they have no common interests. My husband clings to everything I do, and I – to everything he does. We have already talked about divorce, but will the children suffer from it?! It’s just unbearable.
