A heartbroken Lady has recounted how her life changed after realising that her legally married husband was a sc+mmer.
On 2nd August 2019, I walked into a marriage registry and exchanged marital vows with a man who legally became my husband after that exercise. Everything was fine. Everyone was happy for us.
On 27th August, exactly this day 5 years ago. Just 3 weeks after our marriage, he went on a trip to Lagos. His trip was supposed to be just one week but guess what, he hasn’t returned till date. What happened? So much.
2 weeks after he left I found out I was 2 weeks pregnant. The excitement, ohhhhhh. But he didn’t seem excited, why? I guess pregnancy wasn’t part of his plans.
One month later, the biggest sc im in history was discovered. You’ll get to know that the only real people at my wedding were people from my side (people who came on my account). Everyone that came for and on behalf of my husband were either hired, manipulated or tricked to attend or play roles at the wedding including his uncle and the wife, the food vendor, photographer etc.
More shocks coming. All his family members I’ve spoken with while the relationship and marriage lasted nko? They were all part of his mission. Their numbers haven’t gone through till date. My husband made away with everything he could lay hands on. Obviously his reason for the marriage was to get access to them. Virtuous woman don’t hide her money and assets from her husband right?
Days turned to weeks, then to months. I accepted my reality, took responsibility for the mistakes that I made myself and determined to make things right for me and my then unborn child. Sounds like a movie scene right?
Well, that’s someone’s reality but this is not the main point of this post. Here’s the point.
My marriage lasted just 3 weeks but it’s been 5 years of trying to fix the damages caused by that mistake. It’s been 5 years of trying so hard to rebuild everything that was broken down by reason of that marriage error; m£ntal, spiritual, career, financial, emotional etc.
That one error affected practically everything, every other area of my life. Every now and then I ask myself “how did I let this happen under my watch?
