Why do so many men in Japan have that "If can't have you, nobody can" attitude? Slashing her in throat in front of witnesses is sure to make things all better

We don't know what the argument was about. Maybe it was about money.

This silly action will SURELY ensure and expedite any divorce proceedings now! I hope she pulls through.

Looks like a divorce is definitely what's needed.

Strange! All the arguing stopped when my ex and I agreed to a divorce.
