Okay, so OP's husband went to all this effort to be "sweet" to her, propose after a year a half of trying to woo her, plan a wedding a full year after that, and was unhappy the entire time?  He doesn't have to do those things so he's getting something out of it.

I wonder if there is something about OP that embarrassed OPs husband that he liked her -- maybe she is handicapped or a divorcee or comes from a broken home or very poor.  He is obviously immature and was embarrassed by her so he just told his friends that she was a "side" -- might have told them that she pressured him to propose and then when she got pregnant, his friends could fill in the rest.  Or maybe in LA, all his friends dated supermodels and she was just normal and he had weird insecurity issues.  Or maybe he does feel trapped because he doesn't know how to be in a good relationship.

The stereotype is that he had an overly controlling and manipulative mother who always "needed" him and couldn't be on her own.  Maybe his dad left or his parents divorced.  It doesn't sound like he has any experience with a healthy relationship but yet isn't secure enough to be alone. OP doesn't mention the family -- where are they?[/quote]
