My husband disappeared on our wedding day, He made me borrow a lot of money leaving me in debts
A woman named Maitri Mangala shared her story about how her husband ran away on their wedding day and what led to it.
She explained that after her husband left, she was left with a lot of debt and had to raise their children on her own without any support.

Maitri also revealed that her husband had always encouraged her to borrow money, promising that he would take care of the bills. Sadly, she later discovered that he was a scammer.
She said: “I Had a challenging upbringing since i lost my parents at an early age I met a man whom i thought would provide the parental care that I never received but i was wrong, after giving birth to two children it became clear that the marriage was very abusive and difficult this left me in tears and i decided to part ways with him and move to nairobi church was never a significant part of my life I started selling beer for someone and eventually met a young lady
Talking about her difficulties, she said: “I started experiencing difficulties in buying food and I was unable to pay the rent, it dawned on me that I was Jeopardizing my own life I have made a commitment to myself to not return to the father of my children as a result i made a decision to quite working at a bar instead took up casual jobs washing other people’s clothes… My daughter has just started primary school so i left our house and rented a different one with the increases and expenses, life became even more challenging however i have made a promise to myself to keep pushing forward.”

How she met her husband who dumped her on their wedding day, she said: “I met a man on facebook, he used to text me frequently even when i did not reply i would find messages from him telling me that he was a soldier with high rank he would also show me photos of the beautiful villa he had bought which seemed like a dream compared to the life i had experienced however he didnt just want to date me, he wants to get married, he was charming and polite, he spoke with such conviction and kindness he even asked me to take him to church and when i did everyone there trusted him because of his sweet tongue and generous donations to the pastor, this made him seem reliable and generous and i thought i had found a perfect partner.
“He was always so convincing, whenever he asked for money, he would say it was for our wedding preparations he also explained to me that he had taken out a loan from a bank to build our future home which we would share once we get married he assured me that all his payments were going directly towards paying off the loan which made perfect sense to me I never questioned him because i truly believed in our future together to further solidify his credibility I introduced him to our pastor who also admired his personality i thought to myself that there is no way someone who deceives the pastor could be dishonest he even showed me pictures of our home and painted a picture of the happy luxurious life we would have together as i had no parents to seek guidance from I brought him to meet my aunt who also approved of him hwoever when he arrived at my aunt’s house, he claimed that he had forgotten his waller at home and asked us for some money to cover the cost of the bike he had bought desperate, we had to sell some of our crops to come up with the money i tried to explain to my aunt why it wasn’t a big deal and she seemed convinced little did i know i should have paid much closer attention to this red flag”
She also revealed that he did not only promise her good life but also promised to make her children attend good schools and live better life.
she continued: “he promised my pastor that he would never abandon me explaining that he wanted a simple wedding due to financial constraints however during the preparations, he frequently asked me to borrow money from friends he assured me that he would return the money within a few hours but he never did as a result, i was left struggling and suffering trying to repay the debts on my own or even changing my routine to avoid the people i owed money to, he always had a way of convincing me.. A few days before the wedding he told me to borrow money purchase supplies and invite the entire village to what i believed would be the happiest day of my life, i was filled with excitement, i went to the shops, bought foods and drinks and even rented a tent, my friends and family were there and even assisting me with everything i ended up borrowing alot of money because i wanted everything to be perfect i was so focused on creating a beautiful day that i failed to see the warning signs.”
