The comment, “If you were treating her well or giving her enough money for food, she wouldn’t have done that,” is both insensitive and presumptive. It unfairly blames the husband for his wife’s questionable actions without considering the full context of the situation. Nowhere in the man’s post did he mention neglecting his wife financially or emotionally, yet the commenter immediately assumes he is at fault.
This kind of thinking not only shifts the blame unfairly but also normalizes poor behavior, suggesting that a lack of material provision justifies dishonesty or infidelity. Such comments can cause emotional harm, especially when someone is already vulnerable, by turning complex relationship issues into simplistic, one-sided judgments. Relationships thrive on communication, trust, and mutual respect, not assumptions that one partner’s actions are solely due to a lack of financial support.
