"Watching our relationship crumble, I realise it's impossible to invest wholeheartedly in something that clearly isn't part of my future plans."
Ntshangase further mentioned that she thought all of this was a phase that her husband was going through, and it would soon pass, but only to realise that it was the beginning of her nightmare.
She said:
"The struggle has been immense. I've found myself wide awake in the dead of night, desperately calling a friend, asking in disbelief, Thandi, how did we end up here?"
Polygamist shares thoughts on Nozipho's situation
Thobani Buthelezi, a practising polygamist residing in Msinga, KZN, explained to Briefly News that polygamy requires the blessing of the first wife. He explained that this is usually not a difficult task if the wife understands the motivation behind the choice to take another. Buthelezi also said:
"If I treat my wife well and lacks nothing, then she should not be against me taking another, especially if she understands that the way I treat her will not change. Women want to feel protected and provided for; once you have that covered, you have won half of the battle."
