Does the husband's statement to his wife: "I have to put up with you because you are my wife whom I love" constitute a contingent divorce if he doesn't put up with her? And is the man's statement to his friend: "I will not ride in the car with him again" considered a contingent divorce that takes effect if he rides with him? And can a contingent divorce take effect without explicit mention of divorce or its كناية (euphemism/allusion) in the sentence? Do the phrases mentioned in the question lead to divorce? And is the questioner considered to be suffering from Waswas (obsessive doubts), and what is your advice to him?

What has been mentioned bears no relation to an explicit or implicit divorce, but rather consists merely of whispers (waswasa) by which divorce does not occur. It is advisable to turn away from these whispers and to beware of persisting in them. Seeking Allah's help and supplicating frequently can assist in this.
