After my husband signed his entire 1.15 million bonus over to his parents, my bank card had three dollars left on it. He even leaned in and said it to my face. "You're my wife, so you should cut me some slack. My family comes before anything else." I didn't cry, and I didn't make a scene. I nodded and told him he was right. The next day, I packed a suitcase and flew to New York for an eight-month assignment. A week later, he finally noticed the house was empty and started blowing up my phone. "Where the hell are you? Send me money right now. My mother's sick!" I blocked him.
