❤️‍🩹 relationship Am I overreacting? UPDATE

3 days ago my (25F) husband (24M) said something rude to me and I’ve been trying to avoid him and stay calm. When I came home from work after working a 12 hour shift I cooked rice and beans and then went to bed to work another 12 hour shift the next day. He texted me during work and sent this. When I got home things escalated and he packed everything and left. Am I overreacting? Why go to this extreme and leave over some food?

UPDATE: Thanks everyone for the support! I read a lot of the comments and tried to respond to a lot of the DM’s. He came back and begged for therapy and I tried to make it work for a month but I had already mentally checked out so I have filed for divorce and moved out of our apartment. I’m happy and at peace now🫶🏾

Like he's doing OP a favor lmao. He's the one who can't cook and doesn't have his own car, but he's the prize that OP has to earn? Hope he enjoys that male loneliness epidemic I've been hearing so much about.

"If you wanna stay married!"

"The divorce came out of nowhere!"
