Wouldn't this eat any women (wife) alive?
A man keeps telling his wife his ex is bad, but that same man felt comfort in going to that women, surely the women wasn't that bad, she did give him the comfort and support.
Edit: I repeat I do understand rudra has a traumatic past, and it's understandable, I do sympathise with him, but he needs to understand, how something like this is not easy for a wife to grasp.
