What was supposed to be a day of joy and celebration turned chaotic after a groom discovered on his wedding day that his bride already had four children with another man.
In a now-trending TikTok video, the bride can be seen looking disturbed and crying profusely as she follows her groom, who had stormed out of their wedding venue angrily after the shocking discovery.
Although the social media user who shared the story online omitted the specifics of how the groom learned that his bride was a mother of four, the visibly enraged man was heard telling guests who tried to pacify him, “She didn’t tell me, she already has four kids.”
The panic-stricken bride, not sure what her husband’s final decision would be, was on her knees the entire time, pleading with her husband-to-be for forgiveness.
“I’m finished, oh, forgive me,” she said, her voice breaking.
How do people go into relationships without being honest with their partners? How come honesty and transparency is so hard to find among men and women in relationships these days?
Why didn’t this lady tell her husband to be that she had four children? Is it because of the fear of losing him or did she think she was smart in hiding her children so well that he won’t find out?
I believe that without honesty, trust and transparency, a relationship won’t thrive. You can’t keep lying to your partner and expect things to always work in your favour.
You might be afraid of showing too many emotions to your partner, but that will just show what an honest person you are. Vulnerability is difficult right at the beginning of a new relationship, but you have to trust the process. You might have gotten hurt before. However, you have taken the leap of faith and come into this relationship. So trust the person and take one little step at a time.
