I've heard of issues where people complain that they are not comfortable with their partner. Some complain about their friends while to some, it's their family they are having issues with. I grew up in an environment where different characters converge. I've seen many toxic relationships but in this article, I will discuss the one that really taught me a good lesson.

Husband and wife saga

I knew this couple a long time ago. They live in a three storey building mot far from our house. The husband have a good job but the wife is jobless. Since I’ve known them, I’ve never seen the woman go to work, or engage in any trade. She’s always at home 24/7. Where their problems started was that the husband is a good humanizer. He goes out with different ladies in our area which the wife knows about. To get back at the m,an, the woman also started going out with young guys around. It became a competition between them. I remembered the day her husband was telling my dad about how he caught his wife with one guy living in the same area with us. Their lifestyle isn't something anyone should pray for. Whenever they are fighting, the whole street will hear their voice and sometimes, they chase themselves around the street. There was a day they almost threw themselves from the three storey building. Their union wasn’t a god ne so to speak

Did any of them get out of the toxic relationship

As chaotic as their marriage was, they didn’t go for a divorce. They remained under the same roof living like cats and rats. But something happened that made one of them get out of it. The wife fell sick and died after many months of treatment. The husband disclosed that before his wife's death , he didn’t have sex with her for more than a year. I just imagine how they lived under the same roof passing through heat in silence

Their way of life affected their children

They are blessed with three grown up beautiful girls that every guy would love to relate with. Because of their parents' influence on them, they became wayward. Their mother sometimes aborts them when they get pregnant. Their dad didn’t have time for them and their mother, who is always at home doing nothing, would rather encourage them to go out with guys and collect money from them. She always covers for them when their dad complains of them not staying at home.

What did I learn from their experience

I learned a lot from this family. As a man, it’s a bad thing to be promiscuous. When you are married, you should learn to respect your wife and be faithful to her. Having extra marital affair can ruin a home. It can quench the fire of love that is burning in the relationship. This is not only applicable to men. A woman should also be faithful to her husband. The mistake the woman made was joining her husband in the race of adultery which at the end led to her death after a severe illness from a sexually transmitted disease. They also used their lifestyle to affect their children. Those girls had to leave the state to another place maybe they can get a man to marry them as they are getting old and no man is willing to marry them. They only eat and dump them because of the kind of life they’ve lived. So sad
