Why My Friend Stayed Faithful Even After Her Husband Abandoned Her

Why My Friend Stayed Faithful Even After Her Husband Abandoned Her

A Nigerian woman shared how her friend was left alone with her kids after her husband abandoned them. Despite his absence, the friend boasted that “no other man has seen my pant” because her husband’s bride price was still owed. She felt she had to remain faithful until it was paid. I told her she could move on, even sleep around if she wanted. She just smiled and said I wasn’t giving her the answer she wanted to hear.

It seems she ties her fidelity strictly to cultural obligations rather than personal feelings or practical support.

Maybe her loyalty isn't only cultural. Personal values and hope for renewal could have mattered too.

Surely faithfulness shouldn't depend on unpaid bride price, it's more about trust and self-worth than rites or payments.

Most women in her situation might seek community support or legal advice to secure wellbeing for themselves and their children.
