A man living in Baltimore, Maryland apologised to his wife in a Facebook post for mistaking her emotions for weakness has gone viral.

The social media post has had nearly 100,000 reactions and has been shared more than 70,000 times.

Sean, who is married to Ashley with two children, publicly apologised to his wife for his wrong judgements.

He had often deliberately mistaken Ashley’s high emotional intensity for weakness but he now realised that she is far stronger than he had thought according to Independent.

“So many times I called her weak for her intense emotional reactions towards different things,” he wrote in the post.

He mentioned how he“told her to grow up, ‘be a woman’, ‘stop being so insecure’... I’m so hard on my wife and oftentimes disconnected, because the strength I thought she needed, I couldn’t see that she already had it”.

“I confused her love and weakness for me, for lack of strength as a woman.”

The sight of Ashley sleeping with both of their children in her arms made him realise how mistaken he had been to describe his wife as weak.

“Today, when I walked into the living room and saw this I realised just how much of a fool I am… We miss what’s there in plain sight because we become fixated on the fantasy, not realising that our reality is the fantasy…” he wrote.

“I thank God for my wife, for the ups and downs, and everyday lessons and the strength she has that I was blind to see. I am grateful for the revelation that today has brought.”

He also mentioned how Ashley had undergone long days at work followed by tiring nights taking care of their eldest child before their second was born.

“I watch her come home every day to a three-year-old with absolutely no chill whatsoever, after a 12-hour shift, and have to stay up with him despite being tired,” he wrote “How could I be so damn stupid, to see ‘weakness’ within all of this??”

Many people admired Sean commenting on his uprightness and rawness of emotion including his wife Ashley.

“We are a great team,” Ashley wrote. “We naturally differ in a lot of ways because we aren’t ‘yes people’ by nature, so it’s hard to submit at times or open up our minds and receive what each other is trying to share.”

“I appreciate the acknowledgement and time you took to express yourself about us so thank you."
