megnath's wife silochna was so "pativrata" wife, she has never think at once about another person except megnath, but in other hand side megnath was not that much "patnivrata" .
laxman's wife urmila she was also same as megnath's wife but in this case laxman too was that much "patnivrata" he never thinks in whole 14 years about his wife also.his full concetration was on lord rama's seva nothing else, he never thinks also about his owned wife.
laxman gets merried with urmila only for his family shake.
that's why laxman kills megnath.
yes, am aware of this story...but am not sure of meghnath not being patnivrata...
coz i have read meghanad and solchana were perfect husband and wife .Solochana was a daughter of vasuki, the king of serpent she was a pious woman and indrajeet loved her back it was that indrajeet had a boon that one who who follows celibacy for 14 years didnt looked at any woman nor eat and and sleep will be able to kill indrajeet lakshmana never looked at any woman not even sitaji who was along with him all the time besides he didnt slept or ate.
in some versions it is said lakshmana always remembered his wife
in telgu literature its said wen nidra devi came with boon he asked to give sleep to urmila
and she slept where as in north india its said nidra devi (in some version narad ) came to lakshmana and he send to urmila there urmila asked for the boon that lakshmana should forget her as she didnot wanted a distraction in his penance...
it is said that wen lakshmana returned to ayodhya he was serving lord rama completely forgetting urmila...urmila also didnt came near then nidra devi came in the palace and asked lord rama to help her out and help urmila ...lord rama smiled and reminded lakshmana about urmila he took his permission and went in her chamber urmila was sleeping so he was leaving quitely while urmila sensed someone since she was under veil (at that times they use to do ghunghat ) and lakshmana had turned his back she barely recognised him and yelled at him and warned to curse him and then wen he disclose his identity urmila fell in his feet and the first thing she asked was the permission to cry on his arms
in other versions it is said lakshmana use to remember her every single night and her moonlike face didnt let him sleep he use to remain awake guarding ram and sita
