My sister-in-law got divorced, I gave 8,000, she thanked me, and after hearing her out I resolved to divorce

The Bible says "Love is patient" and "Love always hopes, always trusts." I thought I could do that, thought I already had. Because I loved my husband so much, I could put up with his awful relatives, put up with my sister-in-law who targeted me. But one thing my husband did wiped out all my patience.

My husband is very generous, and when I first met him I thought he was a good man. Only after marrying him did I discover how hard it is to stay this generous in his family's atmosphere. His parents and several uncles and aunts all love scheming and love grabbing petty advantages. They are always plotting against me and my husband. What can I do, since he and I are the most generous couple in the family. Just because I am generous does not mean I am stupid; I put up with them taking advantage all along purely because of my love for my husband.

My husband also has a biological younger sister, ten years younger than him. Because of the big age gap, he basically spoiled his sister like a child. My sister-in-law has always had a spoiled and willful temper, and she always liked to target me and mock me for no reason. She never changed this temper even before she married, and I privately reminded her to rein in her little temper. A husband's family is not the same as your own home, but she would not listen at all. After marrying she kept being willful and reckless, often quarreling with her husband. Less than a year after marrying, she divorced.

After divorcing, my sister-in-law seemed like a different person, no longer as high-spirited as before. On her pretty face only a haggard look remained. She spoke much less too, and looked gloomy all over. Seeing her like this, I felt awful inside, and when I went to my mother-in-law's house to see her I specially gave her 8,000 yuan.

Unexpectedly, a few days later she came to see me specially about this matter. She also apologized to me, saying she should not have targeted me before. She thanked me for visiting her after her divorce, for giving her 8,000 yuan, and also for buying her an apartment so she would have something to rely on after divorcing. Hearing my sister-in-law's words, I felt my head buzzing. When had I bought her an apartment? How did I not know? But looking at my sister-in-law's expression, I knew she was not lying. The only explanation was that my husband had bought his sister an apartment behind my back.

At that moment I finally understood my husband's deception of me. All along I had endured so many relatives who loved grabbing petty advantages for my husband's sake. But had he ever cared about my feelings? An apartment, bought just like that, without even asking my opinion. I felt I was truly ridiculous. I decided on the spot that I wanted to divorce my husband. Everyone, is there still any hope for my marriage?
