I understand what you’re saying but in 90% of cases, women don’t just react like this for no reason. A woman can never kick out a man just because she feels like it. Is he a chronic cheat? Is he physically/ emotionally abusive? Is he a drug addict? Is he lazy and financially incompetent? A lot of women cannot stand the trauma that come with these things. Peace and sanity is underrated. There’s a pattern with a lot of divorcee men, check them well and you will see where the problem lies.


He probably cheated and got caught.
But there is a story of a married couple who live happily for say, 20 years.
One day wife just filed for divorce and left.

I think 2 years later, it was discovered she won the lottery and since she initiated divorce, the court took all her winnings and gave to husband.

Moral: Human beings are unpredictable. I used human beings because same applies to both genders. Thus, it could be the woman saw a better man, or won the lottery or caught the man cheating.

you hit the nail on the head, there are always two sides to a story. Let us hear the wife story before we conclude.

So it is okay to destroy the life of the father of your children, make him completely finished and useless because he must have pissed you off.
May your sons, brothers marry this type of callous woman
No, but it is okay to hear the woman side of the story first before coming to a conclusion.

If only half the allegations is true, he must be a difficult person to live with.

Unfortunately, in Europe, it's a woman's world. It is either you treat your wife well OR she unleashes Government assisted and Legal VIOLENCE on you.

You friend is experiencing this right now.

He has no case o!
It is a loosing battle. The best he can do now is to cooperate
10nk you for your contribution.

People need to quit marrying these poverty of the mind ravaged women and bringing them across the pond. Also, avoid some of the ones you meet inland, they're only hustling. You'll become the hustle.

You cannot make someone who do not love you change the way they see you because you benefited them. She will use you, then transfer the benefit to the ruffian she's still in love with at okokomaiko.

Tell your friend to man up. Too many of us don see dis very shege before, but we bravely beat the challenge.

He need to lick his wounds, then go hustle like his last breath was about to leave him. He'll come back a Hakim.

I somehow pity him.

MrCuteking:


He is the owner of the shop. He used to sell Wallpapers before he travelled, so he closed the shop. Getting back to Nigeria, he had to reopen the business but by then, those wallpapers were already obsolete. He does not have much at hand, I'm sure he will get back on his feet one day.

Actually from experience the men are usually the victims and am sure you know that.
One is not talking about what the woman or couple may have passed thru while being together but once it comes to the scenery painted by the OP. The man is clearly the victim

Exactly. One man was moaning his friend's wife was given full custody of the kids. I was lkke, becajse he is your friend does not mean you should be blind to the truth. Men use to get custody if they can prove irresponsibility and endangerment. Some African men will travel abroad, beat their wives and kids and start crying when arrested.
The question is, is your friend guilty of domestic violence, drug and alcohol use? These are no small offences. But instead, come to social media and make him a victim
Re: My Friend Is Currently Going Through A Divorce In UK &having A Hell Of A Time by Ebeano49(m): 4:00pm On Apr 18, 2023
He should be calm and composed. He has a good chance provided he has not committed any of the things he's accused of. It is not by gra gra, he has to be methodical and logical. No emotions!

Here are things to remember:
If he is broke as claimed and living in shared accommodation, he CANNOT win residency rights over the children. The best he can get is visitation and NO overnight visits.
The wife can claim anything but if she has no proof, then the courts will not take the claims into account at the end of it all.

I battled child custody with my oyibo GIRLFIREND in the UK for almost two years. I represented myself all through while she had a lawyer. In the end, I won 50/50 custody. Now my son spends most of his time with me now (he is 15yrs). I have a steady job, stable home, no violence of any form (despite girlfriend's crazy allegations), no criminal record, etc. All I said in court was 'my son has the right to a reasonable relationship with his father and mother to grow into a valuable member of society and that's why I'm applying to the court to ensure he is not denied of this rights'. Whatever my ex's lawyer said, even when they try to provoke me, I just calmly repeated the same thing to the judge. You are not there to argue who is right or wrong in the relationship!

In the end, the judge agreed with me and ordered 50/50 custody.

My point is: your friend shouldn't be scared of courts. He shouldn't overreact. He should be composed even in court. He shouldn't give the court the opportunity to rule against him. He should focus his comments and demands on what's in his children's best interest.

You women has no iota of sympathy in you.

You are wicked down to every fiber of your being, reason I don't loose guard when dealing with women. I always prepare for the worst and stay one step ahead in the game.

Hakimi remains a hero.

Go and look for a man to be with then. You sound just as disrespectful, misognistic and abusive as your friend. Men like you do not deserve to have a woman in your life.

No. It can’t mean the same thing. Having a terrific time denotes enjoyment.

Perhaps you were looking for the word, “terrible “ and not “terrific”

You're right, but it can also mean having an awful or difficult time.

Now you're mixing up his statement, he didn't say anything about "terrific time" in his statement.
According to Merriam Webster dictionary, "having a hell of..." Means and have the following usage:
1
:used to make a statement more forceful
e.g It was one hell of a good fight.
He is one hell of a nice guy.
2
: very good
e.g She's a hell of a player.
3
: very bad or difficult
e.g We've been "having a hell of a time" trying to finish on schedule.
This is a hell of a mess we're in.

The word HELL can be used to express both positive or negative depending on the idioms used, it refers to both extremities of badness and goodness. It all depends on usage. 😂😂

I pray that you understand this though, you can do a quick check of what I wrote it, having a hell of a time can also be interpreted as having a "bad or difficult" time bro. Confirm this before arguing.
