"It is sacrifice. She clearly has a medical condition. Because love wouldn't let him stand for 6 hours if there was no need."

"He did too much, the wife could have slept while seated and leaned her head on his shoulder, thats not love, it's just attention seeking."

@thadon_njonjo said:

"I don't see love here, I see two individuals stuck with each other nje. If it was love, this is the moment you cuddle your wife on your lap if she's sick, reassure her and talk her to sleep not stand up & just give her the whole 3 seats!"
