Hey Keyser, maybe I was actually married to Pattnee's husband (lol)!

I heard this one too. ("You should have known.")

Speaking only for myself, if I noticed some behavior in my spouse that I could see threatening the marriage down the road, I'd say, "Let's get some time away from the kids, sit down, and have a talk. We need to nip this in the bud NOW."

But the ones that leave don't do that. They suffer in silence, then claim they did everything they could.
