Some women are toxic. That’s not a fashionable statement to make, especially within the last ten years, but just because it’s not fashionable, doesn’t mean it isn’t true. In fact, if it isn’t fashionable to say, that probably means it is more likely to be true. Over the last two decades, we have moved into fully existing under a matriarchy that is destroying what is traditional and what actually makes women happy, such as getting married and building a family. Today, women who aspire to a traditional way of life are looked down upon: “Don’t you just want to be a free woman? You don’t need a man. All the single ladies!” We all know the song — after all, it’s empowering and catchy. And some women who do marry get mixed up with the wrong messaging and start to think their life would be better alone.
When people get divorced, they are essentially saying they don’t think they made the right decision when they got married. A breakup can end in heartbreak, but a divorce ends in the severing of a covenant relationship. Divorce is final. Yet it is a decision made after what should have already been considered forever and final: marriage. But every once in a while, someone ties the knot, regrets getting married, gets divorced, and then regrets untying the knot. Rather than think the marriage was the wrong choice, they realize it was the divorce that was wrong — like Samantha Lee, who has spoken out about how outsiders influenced her decision to divorce her husband. Lee was formerly married to R&B singer Tyrese Gibson, who I used to listen to quite a bit when I was growing up. The couple married in 2017, happily welcomed a daughter in 2018, and promptly announced their divorce in December 2020. Lee and Gibson were married three years, called it quits, and then spent the next two years going through a divorce. According to both of them, it was an ugly situation. Now, after some time has passed, she has some regret about the divorce.
