“Our Child Belongs to Our Family, You Cannot Take Him Away”
Phoenix Man Assertively Protects Mother, Ruining His Own Marriage
Tagore once said: “If you love her, let your love surround her like sunlight, and give her freedom.”
In real life, when you truly love someone, that’s when you wholeheartedly give to them. Every woman hopes to meet a man who loves and cherishes her. Wang Gang, now 30, worked hard in his youth due to his family’s poverty.
After graduating from high school, he successfully entered a university in the city, making his parents proud. Wang Gang, being sensible from a young age due to poverty at home, obeyed everything his parents said.
After college, he met his girlfriend Jennifer at work. They got married after two years of dating. Jennifer thought Wang Gang was ambitious and filial to his parents, ensuring a happy life after marriage. However, their marriage was not as blissful as Jennifer had imagined.
Jennifer and Wang Gang had been married for six years and had a son. The birth of their child brought joy to the family. The mother-in-law adored the child and protected him at all costs. Although the mother-in-law loved the child dearly, she did not like Jennifer.
Since Jennifer moved in, the mother-in-law never treated her well, burdening her with all the household chores. Despite Jennifer’s efforts, the in-laws still did not change their opinion of her. Jennifer hoped for a better treatment from her mother-in-law in the future.
One day, when Jennifer was sick and unable to move, the mother-in-law piled all the housework on her. Feeling aggrieved, Jennifer called her husband, who defended his mother’s actions. Jennifer felt unappreciated despite years of dedication to the family.
Unable to bear the situation, Jennifer stopped doing any housework. This led to a confrontation with the mother-in-law. Eventually, Jennifer decided to divorce and fight for custody of their child.
Her husband coldly refused, claiming the child belonged to their family. He gave her an ultimatum to leave alone if she wanted a divorce. Feeling hopeless, Jennifer signed the divorce agreement, seeking liberation from the marriage.
In real life, many women face similar challenges in marriage. When a man is overly devoted to his parents, it’s often the wife who suffers. A woman marries a man hoping for respect and love, but if he fails to provide that, it becomes a tragic marriage for her.
This kind of marriage is like hell on earth for a woman. It’s said that a woman won’t turn back until she hits a wall. But sometimes, stopping at the right time is the best relief for a woman.
As Pele said: “Love is the sweetest joy and the bitterest pain.” Only after experiencing the ups and downs of marriage can one understand the true essence of love. Choosing a man to marry is choosing a type of love. If happiness is absent in a relationship, cutting losses is the best outcome.
