Anticipated Serendipity II

Wat the Hell is Sanctity of Marriage???

See, I've got this friend who found out that her now ex-husband (whom I also know) was cheating on her almost from the day they got registered. They've been together for 6-7 yrs before this.

She got a job outstation and he was in KL. Her plan was to get transferred to KL after a certain period. After a few months of working, he proposed and they got registered. One year down the road, after doing some investigation, she found out that he'd been cheating on her with numerous women. When she came back to KL for visits, he'd be off somewhere, leaving her at home alone, on the pretext of having to go back to work.

Needless to say, she divorced him, but not after he'd caused her tremendous heartache and mental strain.

See, wat I dun understand is, why did he even bother to propose in the first place?? If he wants to have multiple women, then just be a player lar. Just be single and go have his one-nite stands and all that shit. Why even have a girlfriend or wife in the first place??

Some men are just scum. And women too. Why even be attached if u wanna cheat? Is there no such thing as self-restraint? Even if u found someone else u think u like better, at least just break it off with ur current partner before hooking up with the other person. At least it's all out in the open. It doesn't matter if u have the worst relationship in the world (if it were THAT bad, why didn't u call it off sooner?). No one deserves to be cheated on.

And then there is the other type of women. If they got duped by the guy into thinking he's single and unattached, then maybe it's not as bad, as long as they come to their senses. The worst ones are those women who already know the man is attached but yet, choose to cling to the man like he's the only male available in the whole wide world. Do they feel good about breaking up other ppl's relationships? Wat if it were to happen to them? How would they feel?

Wat's more devastating is when it happens to someone u know, both the recipient and the giver. U feel hurt for the recipient and total disgust towards the giver, coz u can't imagine that someone u know could actually do something so despicable.

Is it any wonder that the sanctity of marriage will soon become extinct and divorces would be as common as having flies at a mamak stall? Oh wait, I think this is already a fact.

  • yah... that was a real shocker, man. i just sent her an email one day and she replied with the whole story! i was like, WTF!!! But she's way better off without him lar. I heard that he wasn't remorseful and tried to give her trouble when she tried to claim compensation from him. The bastard!
