Many would-be spouses have gone their separate ways due to weird cultural practices dictated by their partners. Tales are told of urbane couples who rarely or never set foot in each other’s rural homes due to strange cultural norms enforced there. Take, for instance, a woman named Stacy Natasha* who confesses having been to her husband’s rural home only six times for the entire eight years they have been married.
