（单词翻译）

 Couples divorce for all sorts of reasons: disagreements about money, cheating, abuse, different ideas on how to raise kids, but a woman in Kuwait has a most unusual reason. It appears she cannot take her new husband’s poor table manners.

 
The unidentified lady claims that instead of using a fork to eat peas, her husband scoops1 them up with a slice of bread. As she put it, “the shocking sight” of him eating peas directly off of the bread was too much for her. That is when she decided2 she could not spend the rest of her life with him.
 
Even stranger is that the couple had been married only a week.
 
What do you think? Should she have more patience or is it better to end it quickly?
