6 years ago in 2010, the TV and newspapers were filled with news about an accident involving a great fire and burnt celebrities, and one of them was Selina Jen from S.H.E. Among the heart-aching news of Selina’s disfigurement, is a touching love story involving her boyfriend, who stood by her side supporting her throughout her long and painful recovery. He proposed to her when she still looked like ah boy instead of the princess we’re familiar with. We gave them our blessings and thought that their love would last forever.

Apparently not.

On 4 March, last Friday, the couple announced their decision to divorce. In a lengthy Facebook post, Selina wrote in Chinese that a marriage requires the effort of two and admitted that the couple, who married on Oct 31, 2011, “have not done enough”. She said she has not played her role as a wife well because she still focused on her work after getting married.

She admitted that there has been “a big change” in her life perspective before and after marriage. She no longer wholeheartedly lives for love, which is why their love has gradually disappeared, and added that they were unhappy as husband and wife- “problems that existed still plagued” them and “there is no way to change ourselves or each other”.

The husband, Chang Cheng-chung, also has much to say about the divorce. In his own Facebook post, Chang said he is to blame for the fact that their relationship has come to an end. “I should bear the lion’s share of the responsibility for a failed marriage,” he said, describing himself as “neither romantic nor considerate.”

The two started dating nine years ago. They became lovers because they understood each other but then he “became too busy running around and took my marriage for granted,”

However, it is at least comforting to see that the marriage ended peacefully. Both sides admitted to be responsible for the divorce and neither were resentful of the other.

In the turn of events, it seems like their relationship would become that of “siblings” instead. Wow!

Mr Chang, sharing his thoughts on his Facebook, said they are “happier being siblings”.

“In this broken marriage, I lost a wife but gained a sister who is closer to me than my own sister.

“Please don’t feel sorry for us. We are happier being siblings.”

Their divorce came as a huge shock to the Chinese community, because they were so loving and was seen by some as the “ideal relationship goals”. However, we urge our readers to never lose faith in love, and instead of focusing on the failed marriages, focus on the majority of couples to stayed together for life.
