Love is blind but when you feel only pain, emotional or physical with that person, you should know when to walk out. However, many people think that their love can fix their person. Just like
Mrunal Thakur’s character Adhira in “Made in Heaven 2”, who thought that she could fix her abusive fiance or adjust with him. There are several women out there who can relate to that situation and here are some anonymous confessions of married women who thought their "love can fix him".
Can you relate to them?
The wait seems never-ending
I married a man-child but this was something I realised after we got married. I was totally in love with my husband so I kept telling myself that my love could fix him, just like Mrunal Thakur’s character feels in Made in Heaven 2 but it never happened. He was abusive, manipulative, a narcissist and it was all so much to take for me. It was a painful marriage until last year when I set myself free with the help of my cousin lawyers. To all the women out there, I suggest that never live with this hope that you can fix a man especially when he has abusive tendencies.
My love made him go to a therapist
My husband did have some weird issues but after marriage, I soon realised that they all stemmed from his bad childhood where his father abused his mom. Initially, I felt lost on how to deal with this situation but because he loved me, he was ready to see a therapist. I thank my stars because not all men take to that suggestion in a good way but my husband did. He diligently went for the sessions and I can see the difference. He is still on it because these things of course take time but we can see a positive light.
My mother could not fix her husband but I thought I could
After marriage, I faced a lot of abuse. Not physical but emotional. He would yell a lot, so much so that I would get palpitations. I started having anxiety issues and became jumpy at any sound. I know my father was the same to my mother so when I spoke to her, she told me that my love can fix my husband. I tried but soon realised that my mother’s advice did not work for her so how could it work for me? No man can be fixed! It is not our job to fix them! I can make him a little more responsible but how can I take away his abusive tendencies? I am still in this marriage but now I see no other way out other than a divorce. I am done!
