People like this tend to this of the women in their life (wives, daughters etc.) as objects they own. When an object is broken and cannot be fixed, you throw it away — especially if you have spares.
It’s only speculation, but it fits the pattern. I have had the misfortune of knowing multiple disgusting assholes like this guy

History is always being revised. This isn’t a bad thing, but rather inherent to the process of history. History isn’t about assembling facts together; it’s about the continual process of interpretation and reinterpretation. That means there’s no such thing as settled history, because there’s always more insight we can gain by looking backwards, even if we haven’t unearthed new evidence from a particular period.
Even if you had some undeniable facts about your life, those start to get wibbly wobbly the instant you try to communicate them to someone, because words are imprecise.
