A man has ignited an internet debate after revealing the unexpected reason he chose to marry his wife over another lady he stated he loved profoundly while they were dating.

The man revealed that in the beginning phases of their relationship, he was involved with three other women at the same time.

According to him, the woman who later became his wife was not his first choice.

His account has subsequently received feedback from social media users, with many addressing the importance of support, loyalty, and chemistry in partnerships.

While recounting his story, the man stated that his wife was the lowest-ranked of the three women he was dating.

“When I was dating this my wife, there were two other girls I was also dating at the same time. Amongst three of them, my wife was the least. I didn’t even care about my wife at all, it was one of the other two girls that I loved so much. So one day i had a very serious problem and asked this girl for 5k. This girl para for me say na taboo for a woman to give a man money.”

The man went on to describe how the other women responded when he asked for aid.

“The second girl as I call her she no even allow me talk before she cut the phone. So I con call this smally here, she con give me 10k. My mindset change.”

Reflecting on the experience, he shared his views on what many men value in long-term relationships.

“All these girls, if the only thing you can offer a man is your body, they’ll sleep with you until you reach 40 years and they no go marry you.”

The man’s account has elicited different comments online. While some social media users acknowledged that support during difficult times can impact relationship decisions, others contended that marriage decisions should be based on a broader set of variables than a particular event.
