Love or stupidity? ———Part2

Good day...

If you’re just seeing this post,please check my previous post to better understand this story.

So yesterday I stopped at the part where the husband blatantly refused to take treatment or go back to the hospital to actually confirm that he was okay...

So this back and forth went on for months.All attempts to get family or friends to talk to her husband failed because he was a rich man and no one wanted to get on his bad side by telling him the truth.

7months after,one evening according to her,her husband returned from work with a keg of concoction Again for her to take(lol). When she asked him what she needed the herbal concoction for,he told her that she has infection that is why she has not being able to conceive that as for himself he know that God has healed him so the ball is now in her court(I was dumbfounded).This was surprising to her because she could not recall undergoing any test that gave that sort of result.when she refused that she was not going to take them,her husband threatened yet again that she would leave the marriage(one way ticket that she did not take). So she started to take those herbs yet again just to make sure her husband was happy and she keeps her marriage.This time the herbs were more horrid than the last.

When she resolved to leave the marriage was when the herbs almost killed her,she would bleed continuously for days and this made her loose weight.She went to the hospital eventually and the doctors advised that she stopped taking them but her husband wasn’t having it,he told her that if she stopped taking them she should kiss her marriage goodbye...she was reluctant at first but after much advise from close relatives she decided that she’d better leave..

So she relocated to Asaba,Nigeria.After a while she got word that her husband had remarried so she decided it was best she moved on too so she started a relationship with a guy there in Asaba...

Guess what,it wasn’t even up to 2 months in the relationship that she conceived and had twins..2 boys!...the same body her husband said was infected(lol).Meanwhile,her husband and his new wife still hadn’t conceived.

Well,a year went by and her baby daddy went along with the year,leaving her alone to take care of the two baby boys..he was dead beat according to her...

One evening she got a call from her husband profusely apologizing and claiming he wants her back that no one understands him better than her.Apparently his new wife had left after this one year because she couldn’t cope..even after she told him that she now has kids for another man,the husband said he doesn’t care that by tradition those kids are his because her people did not return her bride price...(hmm)

The next week,madam packed her bags and kids,left Asaba for her husband’s house thinking all would be well again.Oh well,nothing changed asides the fact that the man truly took care and still is taking care of the boys like they are his children...the whole herbal concoction palava resurfaced again...

He told her that she had to take this new concoction o because she had been with another man and he doesn’t know what the man had given her so before they can become man and wife again she has to take herbal concoction to cleanse her system and bear him his own child...so she asked if he went back to confirm his status he said he doesn’t need to that infact the doctors made a mistake initially...okay she asked again if he’s second wife ever conceived,he said no because his second wife too had infection and because she couldn’t take the herbal treatments he was giving her she had to leave the marriage(ment!)

So she started to take concoctions agin o my people...as at the time of her narrating this story,she was still taking them I just had to ask her why...she said because she loved her husband too much and would not want to loose him again so if taking those concoction would keep her married to him,then she had no choice...(wow,just wow)

so I ask,is this love or stupidity?

P.S Her husband was transferred to Akure and there he met a lady and got married to her and for the past 1 year they haven’t conceived either..yet,this man told his new wife that he has two sons already that thier mom left them for another man.So this young lady has just been living in anguish thinking that she is the barren one since her husband already has kids....just sad!

Meanwhile...the lady who narrated her story to me is still In This marriage and still taking those concoctions even though she knows her husband is the one with the issue and is now married for the third time.

Please drop your opinions...
