He has cheated (not on me but on ex-girlfriends) and explained that he feels bad that he doesn't feel bad.
And the comments from his friends were more innocuous than he made them out to be, but they were really asking about his happiness.
I think marriage is killing him as much as it's killing me. He's just the kind of person who can't be tied down and so he is being mean to be so he can survive.
No sympathy or empathy ever = sociopath, look it up.
