I always thought my movie star husband treated our marriage more as a responsibility than a romance. He was steady, quiet, and never whispered sweet nothings to me. Until one late night, I was scrolling through Reddit and saw a "whiny husband" post getting roasted for hundreds of comments. I clicked on the profile— Wait, isn't that profile picture our cat? 1 [I feel like my cat is manipulative. What do I do?] [My wife is a software engineer, and I'm somewhat of a freelancer. We have a cat. Because my wife is a programmer, her salary is very high, and she's busy and works overtime a lot. As soon as she gets home, the cat clings to her, and my wife only pets the cat and ignores me. During the day, the cat just sleeps all day, but the moment my wife gets off work, it perks up. My wife is a programmer; she's incredibly smart and kind, so she can't see through the cat's schemes.] When I stumbled upon this hot post in the Relationship Advice subreddit, I felt my brain cells expanding. This guy is crazy. Getting jealous of a cat? I glanced across the living room at Liam Thorne, who was currently holding our cat and brushing its fur. I thought to myself, My Liam is still the best. Although he's usually cool and distant, for day-to-day life, this is actually quite nice. I continued scrolling down the post. Sure enough, the OP (Original Poster) was being roasted in hundreds of comments. And his replies were even funnier than the original post. 2 [Why emphasize that she's a programmer?] [OP's Reply: I didn't mean to emphasize it, I'm just sensitive. I studied abroad when I was young and later went to art school, but my wife is a programmer at a Big Tech company, and she was the top scorer in her state for the SATs that year. Even though my education isn't as good as my wife's, she definitely still loves me more than the cat. This psychological gap just makes it inevitable that the cat feels a bit hostile towards me.] The OP's wife really sounds like me, but our husbands' personalities are worlds apart. I couldn't help but feel a bit of schadenfreude. [Big Tech... programmer...? Unless you say your wife is a C-suite executive at Google, I can maybe slightly understand your overflowing superiority complex.] [OP's Reply: My wife is an Algorithm Engineer.] What's wrong with being an Algorithm Engineer? I am one. Doesn't change the fact that I code overtime every day. But hey, us code monkeys are moving up in the world if whiny husbands are clinging to us now. I laughed out loud reading this. [It is well known that intelligence is not sexually transmitted.] [OP's Reply: But we're married. I knew before posting that people on Reddit would be jealous of me, but reality is reality. This is human nature.] This OP is truly invincible. I laughed until I was dizzy, preparing to turn off my phone and sleep. Before closing it, I habitually clicked on the OP's profile picture for a look. But with just this one look, I completely froze. —Why does this cat look exactly like my cat, C++? 3 Liam and I met through a mutual friend. I'm a programmer; he's an A-list movie star. Logically, our paths should never have crossed. But rumor had it his family was forcing him to marry at the time, so I lucked out. You know how it is when there's an inheritance involved. After getting the marriage certificate, I very consciously told Liam that we absolutely didn't need to go public. His career came first. Because of this, his agent, Claire, has always been very warm towards me. Although my movie star husband is usually cool and distant, I'm no longer a little girl chasing sweet romance. For a corporate slave exhausted in body and mind every day, Liam is simply the perfect husband. He has a face so handsome it angers the gods, and a body with pecs and abs that are top-tier. I can eat an extra bowl of rice just looking at his face when I get home from overtime. Not to mention he's a neat freak and dislikes outsiders, so he handles almost all the housework alone. Before marriage, I often ate irregularly due to work pressure. After marriage, all that was fixed, and I even lost less hair. Liam is perfect, except for sometimes being a bit too much for me to handle in bed. As for being cold and quiet towards me, that's barely an issue. But I absolutely, one hundred percent do not believe he would go on Reddit and post those "whiny husband" comments. Did I recognize the wrong cat? 4 I wanted to find more clues from that account's profile, but Liam, fresh from the shower, got into bed. "Honey, slow down... my waist from sitting all day can't compare to your daily workouts... mmm..." When I'm enjoying it, I often call out "Honey" and "Baby" randomly, but Liam is different. He never says anything in bed, only occasional low pants. I used to suspect if, in Liam's eyes, this was just a marital duty he had to fulfill? Later, I stopped thinking about it. After all, it's not like I wasn't enjoying myself. Worthy of being the man consistently ranked number one on the "Must-Sleep Male Actors" list. After it was over, I was basically delirious. In a daze, I heard Liam say that Lucas wanted to visit tomorrow and asked if I was okay with it. Lucas is the friend who introduced us. Without thinking, I said, "Sure, come over. I probably won't be working overtime tomorrow." Liam paused noticeably, then nodded expressionlessly. For some reason, I thought of that Reddit post again. Although I completely didn't think the OP was Liam, I still subconsciously hugged his waist and buried my head in his chest. "I saw videos online of influencers filming skits about getting jealous of their pets... luckily you're not like that." "But even though I really like our C++, it's different from how I like you." "I like you the most." Liam stroked my hair rhythmically but didn't say a word. I sighed in relief, but my heart didn't feel as light as I expected. But that's how it is. Liam isn't the type to care about these things. Love or whatever, Liam has seen so much in the entertainment industry. Didn't he marry me just for stability?
