Thai woman slashes husband with a big knife

Some couples can develop a love-hate relationship after they’ve spent many years with each other. In some partnerships, this type of companionship is considered healthy and ideal.

However, sometimes, the “hate” can also overtake the “love” part of the relationship.

For example, when an unhealthy argument occurs and some parties find it hard to control their anger, they may decide to physically hurt each other – regardless of the consequences.

Here’s the story of a Thai woman in Bangkok who slashed her husband’s head with the knife after finding her beloved mango tree had been damaged by her partner.

On 7th November 2021, a Thai woman named Pinthong, 41, asked her drunk husband to graft a broken branch back onto her beloved mango tree.

Although her husband wasn’t yet sober and did not know how to fix a broken mango plant, he still tried to graft the branch by turning the plant upside down

The man unintentionally damaged the tree’s branch, but still thought he had successfully finished his job.

Little did he know that what he had done would later bring him a serious injury.

Translation: I think she has suppressed her anger for quite some time…Perhaps her drunk husband provokes her some time.

Another Facebook user thought that the wife’s rage in this situation has nothing to do with the tree’s branch, but rather was an expression of long-repressed anger.

While the story may sound amusing, some netizens found it too violent and thought that the woman’s actions were too much.

Learning to control our emotions

We really hope that the man will recover soon and the couple is able to reconcile.

One thing we can learn from this story is that we should not allow ourselves to be controlled by strong emotions. Though it can be difficult, it’s important that we get in touch with our feelings – thereby learning how to navigate them.

Once we get our emotions under control, life will be much easier and calmer.
