My (38f) best friend J (38f7) called me today to tell me she is getting divorced from her husband of almost 16 years. The have multiple kids together. I knew something was wrong, because she hasn’t call in months, and when I call she is quick to get off the phone. We also live about 3 hours away from each other so we don’t see each other much.

He has been cheating on her with an 18 year old girl. He’s 40. There is talk of her maybe being pregnant. This might be false (I hope) because he might have just said that to be a jerk.

J said she was done a few months ago, but just needed to save some money to get away. I’m so grossed out by him. I’ll never be able to look at him the same ever again. Why is this such a common story? I don’t blame anyone when they say they never want to get married.
