Wife initiates divorce after husband requests children on their marriage anniversary
A wife has initiated divorce proceedings against her husband after he requested that they have children on their marriage anniversary.
This was revealed in a post shared on X (formerly Twitter) by a social media user.
The user explained that a friend of hers is currently in the process of divorcing her husband after he expressed his desire to have a child.
Before their marriage, the woman had made it clear to her husband that she did not want children at all.
On their anniversary, the wife asked her husband what gift he would like, to which he responded that he wanted her to change her mind about having children.
This request has led the wife to begin the divorce process, as she could not alter her decision.
The post stated: “A girl I know is getting divorced because she made it very clear that she doesn’t want to have kids—to the extent that it’s in their marriage contract. It was their anniversary, and she asked him what he’d like (gift), and he said for her to change her mind about having kids.”
As the post circulated online, many concerned individuals flooded the comment section to share their thoughts on the situation.
See some reactions below:
@_Kimathi_brenda: “Men always believe they can wear a woman down on any decision she makes. Whether it’s about sex, or a job, or kids, they believe if they press enough you’ll change your mind. They can never respect your decision as long as it goes against what they want. Very selfish.”
@UberMimz_15: “Men 🙄. It’s a thing where they feel they can wear you down into doing what they want. This is basically emotional blackmail. When you signed a contract that says no children.”
@lillynyoni: “Instead of marrying a trad wife who’ll give him his heart’s desires, he goes for the opposite. I bet he’s busy playing victim now.”
@bruzado23: “Why marry her at the first place?? Sometimes we can be selfish as men because her intentions were clear from the beginning why waste your time.”
@sherylneptune: “Valid. It’s selfish to marry someone who says that and have the expectation that they’ll change their mind.”
@MissOpinionSA: “Men often go for women who have solid standards just to change/ destroy those boundaries. Women who want what they want are not im short supply. They view women’s boundaries as challenges or something they need to overcome.”
@Nelly4Sho: “My biggest fear is finding a man that doesn’t respect my wish of not having children 😭 do men like John Cena exist?”
