DEAR MIKE CARES: My husband asked me to go into his email inbox and settle an issue with an airline. An email popped up: "Your memories from eight years ago" from a popular photo website. We have been together eight years, and I thought I would see photos of us. They weren't. It was photos of him with his ex-fiancee, including his elaborate proposal. The proposal was something out of a dream. (He proposed to me on our family room couch.) I also realized her ring is exactly like mine. I'm so hurt. He has never been that romantic with me or put much thought into my gifts. Actually, one year he gave me bed sheets for Christmas, which I never requested. Meanwhile, I'm the one who puts effort into his family's cards and gifts and helps them with celebrations. My birthday was this month -- I'm eight months pregnant and I had to pick out and buy my own birthday gift because he said he didn't know what to get me. When I let him know how hurt I feel about everything, he just said, "Let me just go back in time," and walked away. I feel hurt, stuck and unloved. Am I overreacting? -- CRUSHED IN NEW JERSEY


DEAR CRUSHED IN NEW JERSEY: Sounds like your husband used up all of his romance on the first girl, his first-round pick, you were what, 2nd, 3rd 4th round?  This chucklehead was probably walking around with that ring in his pocket looking for anyone with a pulse and a decent “family room couch.” So here you are eight years in and seemingly your only contribution to your marriage is “family cards, gifts and celebrations,” and a belly full of mutated DNA?  Here is some advice, I say stick it out for a few more years feeling hurt stuck and unloved, and when your husband returns from “going back in time” be sure to ask him if the baby is yours. Good Luck and Keep in Touch! Dear Mike Cares is also on X, Instagram and Facebook (whatever they are.) For more honest advice, email me your stupid questions at DearMikeCares@gmail.com
