This isn't an acutal scenario is it? If so, that's horrible. What would my reaction be? I would tell the guy that what he did was deceptive, selfish, and cowardly. Lying to someone about your intentions for getting married is deceptive behavior. The woman was probably looking forward to a real marriage with love, romance, and kids...and this guy has ruined her life by telling her this. Even if she gets divorced.....divorce is such a stigma in desi culture and the consequenes are more severe for a woman, sometimes even so if she's innocent. The idiot didn't think about that did he?
He's also a coward. He was too afraid to tell a woman about his intentions. He could have done that when they were engaged.......and the whole wedding/rishta could be cancelled. He had plenty of time to inform her of the truth.....but instead he waits to tell her on the wedding night?????? That is sick and pathetic! And i wouldn't be surprised if he married the girl to make his control-freak parents happy. And giving into their emotional blackmail and pressure is cowardice as well. A real man stands up to his parents....and stands his ground......and both of these things can be done respectfully.
All the money that was spent on the wedding, the hopes and dreams the girl might have had, the dreams her parents might have had for her.......all ruined because of this deception.......and it could have been prevented if the guy just told her earlier. This guy has BIGGER and MORE SERIOUS UNDERLYING ISSUES than his delayed honesty. He needs to develop a backbone and not be so self-centered. It's selfish to ruin a girl's life just so you can appease mommy and daddy and get them to stop nagging you. If he liked the other girl so much, then he should be persistent in his efforts to marry her. And if the girl that he loves is already married herself......then that is evern MORE wrong and complicates things further! YIKES!
Did the girl have any knowledge of this guy's feelings for another girl before the wedding took place. If so....then she should have cancelled the rishta. If she felt any shadiness in him or detected a weird/cold vibe from him....the she could have ended the rishta. This is really messed up. How can you tell someone that on their wedding day?
The other option this girl has is to stick it out and develop a friendship with him....and he might even develop love for her. But it would take COURAGE to develop a relationship with someone who has decieved you like this.
Sue him for everything he is worth...he had no right to lie to me and trick me into marrying him just because his spine has turned into jelly.
I would plunge a dagger through his heart.
What a difficult situation!
Any individual who does such a thing is unbelievably selfish. All that money spent on the wedding has been wasted, so many people will get hurt and the wife’s future could get ruined by this short-marriage.
If he had been that seriously in love with his previous lover, then he would never have married another woman. His chances of marrying his lover were impossible anyway – or else he would have married her.
If the wife has the strength to do so, she could help him get over his lover and convince him to give their marriage a chance. But understandably it takes a lot of courage and strength to do this. If he is not willing to accept her as a wife or if she can’t accept what he has told her, then she should talk to her elders. She has been tricked and used into a false marriage. Why should she live in agony, worry & stress everyday wondering when he will love her.
He should tell her parents himself, so that her parent’s can give him a few slaps with a Bata Chappal and their marriage can get quickly annulled.
^ Yes, she should. She should appreciate his honesty, feed him artery clogging food for the next 15 years and watch him die of a heart attack. Good advice.
Well-worded! Ditto!
