A groom in Saudi Arabia filed for divorce minutes after his wedding when his bride refused to put down her cell phone and pay attention to him, local media reported Tuesday.

The couple retired to a hotel room following the ceremony, where a relative said the unnamed woman rebuffed the man’s intimate advances. The bride said she wanted to respond to her friends’ texts and other messages congratulating them on their wedding, according to Gulf News.

“The groom asked her to delay the messages, but she refused and became angry,” the relative added. “When he asked her if her friends were more important than he was, the bride answered that they were.”

Likely one of the best decisions she has ever made...seeing as it seems like she is a rather independent Saudi woman.

He made a good decision, probably the best of his life.

Like the current commercial in which a guy is down on one knee trying to propose to his girlfriend, but she keeps interrupting him by answering her cell phone.

I usually don’t get involved in family problems, but I think I’ll forward this to my nice, but slow, nephew.

I will not show support for any young Muslim male for anything that he feels he deserves. Sorry.

I’ll take “Arranged Marriage” for $2000, Alex.

I’d put off the advances of a too-demanding jerk as well, and the groom IS muslim, so....

He should have known this before the wedding, which makes me think its an arranged affair.

Bear in mind that in Saudi Arabia most marriages are still arranged. It is likely she had little say in the choice of spouse.

There sure seem to be a lot of stories about people getting very quick divorces in Saudi Arabia. ??

You’re right, she should text through the honeymoon and tell the groom her friends come first. You are showing your ignorance.

Wait, are you a chick?
