Some also shared that the South Asian males could not digest that their wives had not only left them but could survive and be happy and do well without them.
Other South Asian women also expressed that they have experienced the same stigmas and isolation when trying to leave abusive partners.
Just last month, Sania shared about how going through a divorce as a South Asian woman sometimes feels like you failed at life. And that’s not all; the way the community labels you, the lack of support, and the pressure to stay with someone make you feel like you are a failure and wrong sometimes.
She even wrote that her family pressured her to maintain an intact relationship with her husband. And if she refused, sometimes they even retorted and threatened her with suicide.
In her TikTok video, we could see her happy and glow-up face after she split from her husband and led a single life. In one of her posts, she wrote that she has never been happier after living with his ex.
