He said that she had passed away three weeks ago and that his wife had only met her once prior to her passing.

OP simply packed up, told his wife he was going to see his sister, and flew down to attend the funeral.

Soon after he got back, his wife got a call from his brother. His brother was concerned about OP's well-being and urged her to take care of him. Needless to say, she was shocked to find out that her sister-in-law was no longer alive.

She told him that she wanted him to share his feelings with her but OP brushed it off saying that he didn't want to worry her or talk about how he felt.

He said that he didn't like talking about his feelings and that his wife didn't understand that.

The two were barely speaking since then and his wife felt betrayed.

Commenters sympathized with OP's situation but also called him out for hiding such a big thing from his own wife.

They also said that sharing in each other's joy and sorrow was all part of being in a marriage.

For others, this was a crime worthy of reconsidering the relationship.
