“My Husband Told Me He Plans to Marry Another Woman” — A Ugandan Woman Shares Her Heartbreak

I never imagined my marriage would reach a point where my husband openly told me he intended to marry another woman. Living in Kampala, Uganda, I had always believed our love was strong and that nothing could come between us. But one evening, everything changed. During a quiet dinner, my husband, John, looked at me seriously and revealed he had been thinking about taking another wife. My heart shattered. I felt betrayed, hopeless, and afraid. I couldn’t comprehend how the man I loved could even consider leaving me for someone else. That night, I cried myself to sleep, wondering if there was any hope left to save our marriage.

I tried everything I could think of. I begged him to reconsider, gave him more attention, and tried to show him love in ways I believed he would notice. Yet, every effort seemed in vain. Friends advised me to be patient and wait for him to change his mind. Others suggested counseling, but I felt it couldn’t address the deeper issues in our marriage. I began searching for alternative ways to protect my marriage and bring my husband’s focus back to me.TO READ MORE, TAP HERE
