Subscribe in a reader | Subscribe by Email Yesterday’s edition of Kannadi Thundukal talked about adultery and marital problems. The story started with a lady, Mrs A, telling how her husband, Mr B, was fooling around with the Indonesian maid. The couple was doing catering business, and employed few Indonesians. The incident was witnessed by the lady’s teenage daughter who complained to her. One day, Mrs A caught them both red-handed. The husband left the house. It did not end there. The husband then hooked up with the lady’s brother’s wife!!! The lady’s brother (C) was ill and wheel-chair bound. The brother had 5 kids with wife (D), and yet the wife hooked up with Mr B who is relationship-wise is of brother status to her.
The lady mentioned how heartbroken her brother was until he even try commit suicide. The episode then aired interview with a guy (not sure from where) who talked about couples needing to understand each other. He said the blame could also be on the wife side for failing to understand psychical needs of the husband or maybe the husband is oversexed. He advised couples to seek counseling or medical attention in cases like this.
Imagine now, the impact on the children. What the teenage girl saw will forever scar her life – father in bed with another woman. Imagine the social stigma the family will carry. How in future, will the lady get her kids married off easily?
The story yesterday reminded me of someone I’ve known for the past one year or so. He is actually involved in one of the initiatives that I’m involved as well. I found out last week that the person has left his wife and kids, and now going around with another lady. Due to work reasons, the person was always on the move, while the family was located in another state. Thus he did not have much quality time with family for last few years. And now, he seems to have dumped the family for a foreign lady. It is sad to hear that while we are fighting for our community’s well being, we have such “educated” people creating bad name for us. Another broken family. Another single parent in the making. More headache for NGOs and community.
For me, if the marriage is not working out, seek help/advise and if really cannot work together, opt for legal separation. Ensure welfare of spouse and children is settled, and then you can romp around with whoever or whatever you want. Don’t leave things in limbo and create problem for others.
Then said : this kind of people should be shot to death.
very nice progrem
