When he is reluctant to propose

Your age mates are getting married but your man seems not just interested in marriage. The funny thing is that he says he loves you and he would want to spend the rest of his life with you but he claims he is just not yet ready to tie the knot. So every weekend, as your friends are walking down the aisle, you have to pretend that everything is okay in your relationship. Sometimes it gets to a point where you ask yourself whether he is worth waiting for. You have even contemplated leaving him and looking for another man who is serious and ready to settle down.

When he cheats

This is probably the most hurting thing in a relationship. When he cheats, you feel like dying. You feel like he has betrayed you. You feel like he does not love you anymore. There are several instances when cheating has led to suicide or murder. No matter how many times he apologizes, you just can’t find the grace to forgive him. Many people have also called it quits when one partner cheats. 

When he marries another wife

Not all women in a polygamous family are happy. Some are forced by unavoidable circumstances to stay. When he marries another wife and makes it official, he leaves you in between a rock and a hard place. You are either forced to resign to fate or pack up and leave, a decision which is tricky when kids are involved. Sometimes it gets to a level of divorce. The relationship, which was sweet, turns sour and partners start suing each other in a court of law.
