IF MY WIFE CHEATS, THE MARRIAGE IS OVER, BUT IF I CHEAT, I'LL BEG FOR FORGIVENESS - BUSINESSMAN

A businessman has sparked debate after sharing his views on infidelity in marriage, saying he would immediately end his marriage if his wife che@ted on him but would seek forgiveness if he were the one to be unfaithful.

Speaking at an event, he said, “If my wife che@ts on me, that is the end. That is the deal breaker. That is the end. I cannot negotiate it.”

He admitted that he would take a different approach if he were the one who cheated, saying, “But if I che@t, I’ll beg for forgiveness. I’ll beg for forgiveness. I believe strongly that she is kind-hearted and that she will forgive me.”

Explaining why he holds that view, the businessman said, “Traditionally in Africa, men are ascribed to be polygamous. Therefore, we can be in a marriage or in a relationship and feel it’s fine, very easy for us to have extramarital affairs or che@t on our partner and then get away with it.”

He added that, “For we men, we do not want the women we see as our shrine to che@t.”

Despite his personal stance, he acknowledged that some couples may choose a different path, saying, “For those that feel they can walk through the process of amending it, they can go through the process of counseling, psychologically erasing some of these things.”
