Now, she has shared things she claims she is enjoying as a divorcee that she did not enjoy when married.
She wrote: “Men swear divorced women are bitter and frustrated.
“I’m sorry to break it to you that life after divorce is actually marvellous, especially if you have money.
“Imagine living life without your abuser, whom you were obligated to serve and worship.
“The house becomes peaceful and quiet.
“For someone like me who hates cooking, no more cooking.
“Cooking with garlic because his side chick can no longer dictate the spices I use.
“No more being constantly criticised and yelled at.
“REST. I wasn’t allowed to rest. I was cleaning, ironing, and cooking round the clock.
“No more nagging and hitting me.
“Enjoying my children.
“Sleeping peacefully. Nobody waking me up in the middle of the night to accuse me of cheating, while he’s the one cheating.
“Watching TV shows I like or watching TV in general.
“Nobody coming home to beat me because they fought with their side chick.
“Not constantly fearing I’ll contract STI’s because, as his wife, I’m expected to have unprotected sex with a cheating husband.
“No more living in constant fear or walking on eggshells.
“No more feeling drained and aging.”
She added, “No more being surrounded by his friends who knew about all his cheating and escapades but kept quiet.
“Sleeping peacefully without anyone snoring beside you. (I can’t relate to this one because I shared a room with my kids.)
“No longer living in constant fear of losing your life.
“Please, don’t threaten me with a good time.
“Men will tell themselves anything to be happy.
“If divorced women are so miserable and desperate to get their exes back, why do divorced men rush into marriages?
She wrote, “Food is ready koromoto men.
