After watching the movie Acrimony, I have seen a lot of people post various things about it based on their opinions and I must say, they have a lot of valid points
So I would not lay any blame on either the man or the woman but I will just list a couple of lessons that can be taken from it. So please feel free to critique my review and drop your comments.
The first lesson that can be learnt is not to take advantage of someone who is vulnerable. No matter how much you like a person, you must at least give them time to heal before you let them know about your feelings else you will be taking advantage of them in their weak state.
The second lesson from the movie is that, we must endeavor to understand our temperament and not allow anger to control us. And if we find one of our loved ones with anger issues, we must ensure that they get proper treatment of how to control their selves in such situations because most people have done things that are irreversible when they were in such state.
Thirdly, do not take advantage of the love someone has for you. There is a popular saying that goes, the strength of a relationship lies on the one who loves less. If you happen to have someone who is madly in love with you and willing to make sacrifices for you, be wise to ensure their sacrifices do not go in vain. Especially in a case where they are willing to offer monetary help, ensure that you are moderate in what you ask and treat what they give you with utmost respect as most people would ride on the fact that they are able to get something from someone they love and in the process be manipulative about it.
I do not think I need to point out the fact that one should not cheat in a relationship, as this is simply basic. If you know you cannot stay faithful, then do no stay in a relationship and destroy someone who is being faithful to you.
Also, when married to a person, I do believe that the confidentiality of your marriage should be between you and your spouse. Allowing family members opinion to be held higher than that of your spouse even to the point where you cannot say anything is terrible. Once you have decided to give yourself in marriage to someone, your joint interest together becomes paramount. Every decision you make must be based on input from the both of you and a comfortable solution. Everything, nothing should be left unturned.
Lastly, for whatever reason that you choose to divorce your partner, be mindful that you are entitled to NOTHING after the divorce is finalized. Regardless of your sacrifice for them, you have nothing you can claim to be your right because you basically severed your ties to them. Unless there was a formal agreement made somewhere.
Thanks for reading through, please note I did not fault anyone but I rather just pointed out lessons that could be learnt from it.
