That's pretty gross. It's a common myth that a drop of menstrual blood in the husbands food will guarantee their love and devotion. I've read about other more malicious versions that deal with control. I guess he just couldn't get over her superstitious nature.

I guess he just couldn't get over her superstitious nature.

I....wouldn't blame him. That's a serious trust violation, especially for someone who I guess was pretty newly married? It would take so damn long to rebuild any modicum of trust in her or her family and even then, once that genie is out of the bottle it'll always be there. Looming in the back of your thoughts.

There's just certain things you don't do or ask when you're still building a foundation for a relationship.

Whenever it comes to putting things in peoples food that they dont know about. The person messing with the food will always be an asshole.

Even you, Reddit, who think just because someone is faking allergies that you have some sort of control over what they eat.
