A TikTok video featuring a Cuban woman known as Nelita Tiki (@nelita.tiki) has gone viral after she decisively answered a question from her followers about whether she would allow her husband to travel to Cuba alone.
The response not only clarified their rules but also sparked debate on social media. In the video, Nelita answers directly:
"Don't pretend you don't know that it's not possible, because in Cuba, you only have one brother and two nephews, and you'll only see them on camera if you don't go with me. I'm giving you the option to go with me, as I have a lot of family in Cuba, so you can see your family too. If you don't take that option, you cannot go to Cuba or anywhere else on your own. We are a couple, and when you decided to join your life with mine, I became a part of you," he commented.
The firm statement sparked thousands of comments on TikTok, with users debating trust in romantic relationships and the boundaries that should be established in a marriage. Some praised the woman's sincerity, while others criticized what they saw as an excessively controlling stance.
"Such an insecure woman," "God, what a level of immaturity," or "That's right, couples should go everywhere together" are some of the reactions that can be seen in the post.
The husband, for his part, has not appeared in the comments nor reacted publicly, but the video has sparked an intense exchange of opinions on how to handle individual trips within a couple, especially in contexts like Cuba, where nostalgia and family ties play a significant role.
The post, which has garnered thousands of views, highlights a common reality among Cuban couples living abroad, dealing with dilemmas related to family travel, distrust, and cultural traditions.
