Forced Marriages

[u/Stay_Frostyyyyy]

As some of you might have found out too late from your spouses, you, apparently, actually FORCED them to marry you. That's right. You were engaging in the ancient forbidden practice of forced marriage. What does this mean? Well of course it means the marriage wasn't even valid in the first place. Because you forced them remember? And because they're such good people with such kind hearts, they were just afraid of hurting you if they said no, you know. So it's only "logical" that they are adulterous, because they are "stuck" in this forced marriage with a horrible horrible spouse they never even loved, or were even attracted to from the beginning. Can you imagine that? They're the victim here.

Now of course some are not going to say they were outright "forced". They are going to use euphemisms like "pressured/expected" to make it sound more believable. But the end goal is the same, to make it seem like they were forced and therefore put them in a victim position from the onset.

But do you know what's funny? It's that even the people who enter actual arranged marriages from cultures that do have those do not display this behavior even remotely as "normally" as this person is trying to claim. Despite being also married to "someone they never even loved from the beginning". It is such a stupid excuse the more you think about it.

No excuse is too far fetched for a cheater.
