Every night I am glued on tv watching the Legal Wife. Once in a while Edmund watches with me. Just like thousands of female viewers, naiinip ako sa dialog ni Angel Locsin. For me, a wife should not engage in dialogue with her husband’s mistress (Maja Salvador). Sayang ang energy.

If you find yourself in the presence of the mistress, stay away from her. Do not waste your time. To be around her is dangerous because nothing good will come out of that meeting. Baka masaksak mo lang sa galit mo. So lumayo ka na. Pero pag pino provoke ka naman, at sya pa ang salita ng salita at matapang, ibang usapan na yan. Dapat ilagay sya sa dapat nyang paglagyan. Saan? Sa kangkungan.
A friend of mine (V) told me that when she was in high school, a few times her father’s mistress came to their house looking for her father. Inaway silang lahat. Her mother was just quietly suffering but her elder daughter stood up against the mistress and literally engaged her in a fight na umabot sa kalye. Sabi nya parang sine, their neighbors were cheering for the daughter while she fought it out physically with their father’s mistress. Umabot pa daw sa barangay ang away. Her mom suffered tremendously and died from sickness. A week after her mother was buried, their father came home with his young girlfriend. Obviously, matagal na nyang kabit yun. Alangan naman sa punerarya o sa sementeryo sila nagkilala.
Last night in between tv commercials, Edmund told me that our minds must always rule over our emotions. Una sabi nya kasalanan ng mga babae dahil nanukso talaga, tapos, sabi nya kasalanan daw ng mga lalake. So, parehong may kasalanan.
In the teleserye The Legal Wife, clearly the husband (Jericho Rosales) is weak. When he told her he’s bringing Nicole to the hospital because she’s bleeding, Monica should leave him for good, with no turning back. It’s useless fighting for him because he’s weak. You don’t want to have a husband like that. You will be miserable for the rest of your life.
Edmund said kung aawayin daw yung mistress parang pinapababa ang sarili. Or baka mapahiya pa. I told him sorry tart, wala sa akin yung mga ganung rason, na pinapababa ang sarili or mapapahiya. Kung ako aawayin at sisigaw-sigawan pa ako ng mistress mo, I cannot allow that. Tatamaan talaga sya.
E——- “Oh see, you’re not using your mind”.
A—— “Hindi talaga ako nag-iisip, sisipain ko talaga sya. Lumayo sya sa akin, wag akong makarinig na mga comment nya, hahantingin ko sya”.
If a mistress screams at me like that, I will make sure magkabasag-basag ang Ipad ko sa mukha nya. Wisdom tooth lang nya ang hindi mabubungi. Even if my bones are brittle, I could still manage to kick her face.
I do not have permission yet to publish her love story but the current tv smash hit The Legal Wife reminds me of my acquaintance’s own love story.
Friend B came to the house of couple A & C
Wife (A) heard (B) asking her husband (C) “When are you going to kiss me?” Wife A didn’t do anything. She just kept quiet.
Naku po anak ng kalawang, huwag naman mangyari sa akin yan at babasagin ko lahat ng pinggan ko sa mukha nya, kakaladkarin ko sya sa labas at ihihilamos ko sa mukha nya lahat ng tae ng mga aso namin. Ikakayod ko sa mukha nya tae ni Lucy at para numipis ang balat nya. Ang kapal ng mukha.
Women, marami sa atin malandi, pero respetuhin ang tahanan ng mga mag-asawa. Kung gustong makipaglampungan, pwede ba, huwag naman sa loob ng bahay nila. Ayain mo na lang sa motel o sa ilalim ng fly-over sa EDSA.
I hope this doesn’t happen to me because I do not have the energy to cry every waking moment dealing with the pain. I did not get married to be crucified. I will not spend the rest of my life in misery. I do not deserve that.
We all get married for a promise of a blissful love that would last till all wrinkles have invaded our faces and all our teeth have parted ways. Your spouse must be your best friend, your defender, your kakampi, and one that would stick by you thru thick and thin. Would be the last face who’ll smile at you at night and the first to greet you hi sweetheart good morning. But if your spouse is your cause of misery, doesn’t treat you nicely, doesn’t care for your feelings, then clearly he/she doesn’t love and appreciate you. It beats the purpose of having a wife or a husband. Your house is your domain and oasis. Your family is your solace and security. Every person must find happiness and peace in the loving arms of his/her family.
