After My Husband Wished He Met Her First

By the time I stumbled upon the video, it already had tens of thousands of likes, with comments flooding in beneath it.

"Wow! This couple looks incredible! I'm hooked!"

"Oh my gosh, they're so genuine! This is beautiful, gives us all hope!"

"So adorable! You two have to stay happy! Sending love your way!"

I stared at the video, lost in thought.

Had Corbin really fallen for Arianna this deeply?

Had he forgotten?

Five years ago, at the start of our marriage.

That was when we were truly happy.

Even though we were financially struggling, we felt unbelievably content.

And now, in the video, he expressed a wish.

That he’d met Arianna instead of me five years ago.

I expected my usual reaction—furious, blood boiling.

Ready to grab my phone and bombard Corbin with calls, demanding explanations.

If I couldn’t reach him, I'd likely smash everything in our house and scream to vent my anger.

But oddly enough, this time, I just sat there, unmoving.

The comments, which should have provoked emotions in me, scrolled past like lines of code on a screen.

Then, it felt as if something in my mind had loosened and unraveled.

To my surprise, Corbin’s behavior no longer affected me.

Holding on is fleeting, and understanding hits in a moment.

That's why I made that call earlier.
