“I had a small fight with my Husband, my Father was political influential guy and my brother works in MNC. Both compelled me to file dowry and Domestic violence case on my husband. Case ran for 4 years. Then got settlement,” reads the first few lines.

The woman continues that she received a settlement and has two kids. However, now she regrets her decision, as she feels like a failure at the age of 37. She claims she is being mistreated by her parents, brother, and sister-in-law.

How did social media react?

An individual posted, “What goes around comes around. PERIOD.” Another added, “Temporary anger, manipulative relatives, and just being plain greedy and gullible.”

A third joined, “No one has to stay in a bad marriage, men or women. But the decision to split should be made by man and wife only. No one else should intervene or suggest anything. In an ideal world, all splits should be amicable as when you have decided to part ways, why do it on a bad note. But the world is not an ideal place.” A fourth wrote, “Tough truth: parents are toxic too, the only thing permanent is just us, so gotta be careful before taking any advice.”
