A Young Woman’s Regret: A Glimpse into Her Ex-Husband’s Prosperous Life

A young woman, who has been divorced for 3 years, accidentally walked past her ex-husband’s house. I saw it and was sad. “If you knew it was going to be like this I probably won’t get a divorce.”

A woman from Fujian Province, China, three years after her divorce, recorded a video while walking past her ex-husband’s house. She was shocked to see that he had a better life than her, which made her feel very angry.

The young woman initially decided to marry a poor man, despite her mother’s objections, because she loved him. However, life after marriage was not smooth, and they faced many difficulties, including complaints from her mother-in-law.

She saw stories of happiness in their second married life on the internet, which made her decide to divorce. However, life after divorce was not what she had hoped for. She had to work to earn her own money and struggled to be accepted by men of good status due to her marital history.

Three years later, she attended a party and accidentally walked past her ex-husband’s house. The sight in front of her astonished her greatly. Her ex-husband had built a five-story house that was elegantly decorated and attractive to the eye.

Not only that, but she also heard that her ex-husband had bought a house in the city, remarried, and quickly had twins. His family was very happy.

Seeing her ex-husband happy like this, compared to her own struggles, made her feel dissatisfied. She went home, locked herself in her room, and cried a lot. “If you knew it was going to be like this I probably won’t get a divorce.”

She couldn’t avoid thinking that if she had stood by her ex-husband and not listened to her mother’s words, maybe she could have lived a happy life like him. Instead, she was single and working to support herself.

Many netizens commented on her story, with some saying:

“This is not a matter of regret. But it is jealousy. People tend to be like this. When other people are doing well, they are jealous, but if they are not doing well, they laugh and laugh.”

“Two people with different views can’t really get married.”

One netizen said bluntly: “This is human. When I saw the terrible life of my ex-husband, I felt happy. But when I saw him living a good life, I felt angry and sad.”
