A Caucasian man shared on the microblogging platform X why he decided to cut ties with a close friend.
He revealed that his friend is divorcing his wife, who is battling stage 3 breast cancer, claiming they had grown apart. However, the user suggested that the real reason was his friend’s inability to cope with her cancer treatment.
Feeling disturbed by his friend’s decision, the man decided to end their friendship and vowed to support the wife, who had always been kind to him.
His tweet read:
“Just found out a friend of mine is divorcing his wife, who has stage 3 breast cancer. She didn’t do anything awful. He said he had just grown apart from her. He is no longer my friend, and I clearly misjudged him as a man. She has always been kind to me. I’m going to see if she needs anything because he can’t be a man. Shameful. Am I being harsh? Did I break the bro code? No, you simply don’t divorce your wife while she is in cancer treatment because you can’t handle it.”
While some internet users agreed that his reasons were valid, others suggested he create a GoFundMe for her to receive donations.
