I would have ended my 10-year relationship earlier if…-Ayo Adensanya

Actress, Ayo Adesanya, has said there is nothing worth committing suicide over. She was speaking on the backdrop of growing suicide rates in the country. She told Sunday Scoop, “Nothing in life is worth committing suicide over. It is said that when there is life, there is hope.

For most people who reached that bridge of almost taking their lives, they eventually thank God that they did not take that plunge.

The only thing that is constant is change. You may not have today, but you would have tomorrow.

When it comes to people in unhappy marriages saying they want to commit suicide, I don’t subscribe to it. If you are not happy in your marriage, the best thing to do is get out of it. However, it is a bit unfortunate that these days, we are no longer as tolerant as our parents before us. Maybe because of the advent of social media, things travel so fast, and we no longer tolerate each other. There are a lot of things that can be overlooked but these days, it doesn’t happen like that. Nobody wants to take the pain to be in a marriage or relationship and stick with their partner’s shortcomings.

Talking about domestic violence in marriage, it always starts with a tap. If I was experienced, I probably wouldn’t have got into that relationship. I tried to make it work and for 10 years, I stayed. When I realised that it would not end well if I didn’t sever ties with the said person, I had to leave the relationship. I think it’s always better to be with someone we can tolerate their shortcomings.

However, even with the alarming rate of divorce, there are still people who are salvaging their marriages and making it work. As long as it is not life-threatening, I believe you should still try and make it work because at the end of the day, love is all that matters.”
