A Nigerian man has counseled married women against leaving their marriages on grounds of infidelity by their husbands.
The young man identified as John Doe, in a series of Twitter threads, urged married women to never be too quick to divorce their husbands because they cheated.
According to him, divorce is not an option except that the woman is no longer interested in being married.
He maintained that while it’s easier for the cheating husband to move on after a divorce and even get a better spouse, it would be difficult, and most times impossible, for the woman to move on.
His words,
“For married women and especially in Africa, never be too quick to leave your marriage because your husband cheated on you. Except you’re done with marriage for good & don’t wish to be married again. I say this because you don’t even have a better option like the men you plan to leave.
“That man you leave can even find a virgin lady to remarry, you can’t. Except you want to stay celibate for the rest of your life, you’re likely going to be sleeping with another man that is cheating on his own woman with you. It’s like from frying pan to fire.
“Imagine once being a revered wife to a side woman that another man will be cheating with? I said revered wife because in truth, you know that your cheating husband will never wish for you to leave him because he cheated. Cheating is bad but you need to weigh your options.”
“Do all that for you & love your children regardless? Your husband can find another woman who will be faithful to him, but can you? You’re better off cheating back in the marriage rather than divorcing him. But if you get caught, I’m sorry for you.”
