When My Wife Said to Leave, I Never Expected This Reason

I’m Jake, 32, dad to Allie, who’s three and full of wonder. Most mornings start with her shout of “Daddy!” and days unfold in pancakes shaped like giraffes and pillow-fort kingdoms where she’s queen.

One night, my wife Sarah asked me to move out “for a few weeks.” She said Allie needed space to bond with her. I agreed to one week, telling Allie I was helping a friend. Every night she asked, “Daddy, when are you coming back?”

On day five, I showed up with her favorite Happy Meal—only to see Sarah laughing on the couch with Dan, a coworker. “It’s not what it looks like,” she said, but it was. “You didn’t just betray me,” I told her. “You sent me away from our daughter.” I moved into a small apartment nearby. Co-parenting became our new reality—keeping Allie’s routines steady, shielding her from storms.
