It's Funny but It's Real Part Two

Here's the other five bizarre divorce stories from my previous blog.

Obsessive cleaning leads to divorce
A woman from Germany left her husband after 15 years of marriage because he was cleaning obsessively everything in the house all of the time. She’d been patient for that long, having empathy for her man’s disorder, but her patience ran out when the guy had rebuilt a wall in their house because it’d gone dirty.

He gave her his heart and his kidney, but…
Dr Richard Batista could do nothing but to watch his wife slowly dying from kidneys failure. Her organism rejected the donated organs from her father and her brother, before it became clear that her husband’s kidney matches perfect. Batista never hesitated and saved his wife’s life. Given the most valuable present and building a romantic fairytale of happy marriage, full of love, commitment and sacrifice, she returned to their home healthy and… jumped into another man’s embrace. Angered husband couldn’t believe the lack of gratitude he was faced with, so despite divorce he wanted his kidney back. As the donated organ was not a marital asset he couldn’t get it back, so he wanted 1.5 million dollars. The Supreme Court has denied his claim because it was not legal to put a monetary value on a human organ.

When religion takes part
A woman from Saudi Arabia has requested a divorce because her husband broke the strict Islamic codes. He asked for a sneak of her face. It wouldn’t be strange if they were not married, but 30 years of living together talk that, at least for the Western world, this is a bizarre reason for getting divorced. It happened while she was sleeping as the husband lifted her veil off her face to finally see how she looks. Unfortunately she woke up, and although he was apologizing and promising that he won’t repeat it again, she left him forever.

“Divorce! Divorce! Be Patient! Be Patient! I Love You! I Love You!”
In a hilarious Chinese case a woman requested divorce using the testimony of the family’s parrot. As it’s well known, the speaking birds use to repeat the words that they hear more often. For this betrayed Chinese wife it was clear that her man is having an affair when their parrot repeated words and phrases like “divorce”, “be patient” and “I love you” in recent times, supposedly that the bird was hearing to husband’s conversation with his mistress. The wife tried to use the parrot as a witness on the trial, but although she gained a divorce, the bird’s testimony, of course, wasn’t accepted by the court.

Splitting assets equal before the divorce

Being suspicious that his wife is having an affair with a local cop, a man from a village near Phnom Penh, Cambodia, has decided to end their 18 years lasting marriage. Although they have had a conversation about the issue for some time, one day Moeun (the husband) and his relatives and friends showed up “armed” with a lot of chainsaws and, we guess, with some alcohol in blood (or some blood in alcohol), and divided the house in two equal parts, probably supposing that the court would make the same decision later. What’s more interesting, they moved his share to his parents’ place, although it’s useless without the other part. Fortunately they hadn’t kids.

Hope you had fun reading!
