Einstein was not a good husband. Obviously, great philosophers and scientists cannot find a spouse compatible to their talent. Apparently, Abul Kalam, Ex President did well by remaining unmarried.

This world is full of weird persons in some way or other, but that is what we think, they all have some reasons behind that.
Even I heard about Einstein, who harasses his wife a lot. His wife bared him for 15 years and then divorced him


Why she barred him for 15 years?

Some days before I heard about a lady who divorced her husband after their daughter's marriage. When he asked the money kept for girl's marriage, she couldn't bear him more. Actually, why did she waited so long :silly: :blink: :whistle: :whistle: :whistle:


May be she did not want to spoil her daughter's marriage so she did it after the marriage. :blink:


But she got her kid married without the help of her husband
Even I too heard about einstin and not only einstin there are many people who are good for out side but not for their family
this is not a easy task but man will be concentrate on one wife or work
Well we cannt expect a family man to ignore his family and concentrate only on his work..
Invention is not a simple task and they may sometimes even dont sleep, eat for days...Its fluctuation that causes these people to have bad ralation with their family.. :huh:

But most of the scientist are like this as they have very less time to spend with people they devote most of their time in the laboratory.Had Einstein devote much time with her wife there are possibilities that he would not have given us more inventions like he did. :blink:

But when the people of the son in law comes they will ask about mother's husband thats why she has waited till her daughter get married. so after marriage she left him

others matter may have.This is totally their personal matter.
Scientist and other intellectual people are genius.To understand them others should be like that.
Scientists cannot be a good husbands as they will share thier life for discoveries than personal life.

Scientist cannot be good husband. Hence Kalam did well by not marrying.

If they care about personal life they they would not be scientist.

If one has natural interest and inclination in Science, he will be scientist. He may remain unmarried or desert and neglect wife but he will never quit science. Interest in science is personal and part of one's personality.

Not even the scientist there are many people who are work alcoholic and they are so devoted to their work and care for nothing except their work.In that case if they are married their family members suffer for not getting time from him/her. :evil:
Yes Gulshan ji if he married means he could not be a good scientist.

Yes, that's true, we must have missed his inventions if he was selfish about family and their well-being..But one who marries a scientist should also understand him/her.. I think this happens to doctors also, that's why same profession couples can stay happy in such situation..
I feel he should manage both his family life and scientist life too then only we can say he is a good human being

This is not feasible for a great scientist. If he tries to divert his attention from pursuit of Science, he will not succeed and fail as a scientist. Most people are good husbands and wives but they are normal and not achievers. The achievers in any branch of knowledge or profession hardly lead good family life. Just see how Archimedes was so obsessed with his science problem that on getting answer, he was so overjoyed that he left bathroom totally nude and went to street crying 'Eureka, Eureka'. See how Madame Curie spend day and night tirelessly in her scientific pursuit and even ignored health and sleep. The great sea men like Columbus, Captain Cook and Vasco DA Gama spent decades on high sea. How could they achieve anything by enjoying good family life like most.

I totally agree with @Gulshan ji
What he said is quiet a good examples.
Sarala,
After all they are human beings and good human doesn't always need to have good marital life.
But it is not correct juice right. then such person should sacrifice their martial life without getting married

There might be some other reasons for him getting married. May for his parents\s sake he did it like. :laugh:
