A woman has captured attention online after sharing her inspiring journey of overcoming her husband’s infidelity.
Her husband became involved with a younger woman who later became pregnant, with the girl’s parents insisting she live with them until childbirth.
Initially stunned and unsure how to react, the woman remained quiet, surprising those around her who knew her as strong-willed. Encouraged by her best friend, she took time for self-reflection, stepping away from her husband and focusing on personal growth through therapy, prayer, exercise, and learning.
After two years of healing, she made the decisive move to leave her marriage, prioritizing her well-being despite pressure from her husband to reconcile.
Her ex-husband attempted to marry the young woman quickly, but she refused, only wanting to raise the child. Today, the woman is fully healed, embracing independence and moving forward with her life.
Below is her post:
“My husband got for himself a young concubine. Eventually the girl got pregnant and her parents insisted she come live with us till she delivers. Everything came in the spur of the moment and I couldn’t find time to adjust or react.
From her parents bringing her to a family meeting, the whole process was rushed. Everybody knows me to be a no nonsense person but for the first time, l went quiet. Everyone kept telling me to hang on and be accommodating. I didn’t respond to their messages and I never gave a final verdict of what I wanted to do.
My best friend told me to take all the time in the world to reflect on the incident and make a profound decision. So first thing I did was move out from my husbands room and cut every access to him. I began spending time reading, attending seminars, went through therapy, started hitting the gym and praying more. My prayers shifted from God helping me reclaim my home to God taking away every affection I had for my husband so walking away will be easier.
It took me two full years until one day I finally made my decision and left the marriage. It came unexpected. Everyone thought I wasn’t going to live so it shocked everyone. My husband out of vengeance wanted to quickly marry the girl but I was told the girl refused saying she had no plans getting married to him. She just wanted to be a baby mama to him because he’s responsible. She has also left and my ex husband was forced to rent an apartment for her and his child.
This is me fully healed and moving on and family is trying to cajole me to go back. Why? Because he’s lonely.”
