The answer

Men in marriage to vulnerable women are of two types: one who intends to mend her brokenness and console her, so he honors her and fulfills her rights. His marriage has a great reward, and he is emulating the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, for his saying: "The best of you is the best to his family, and I am the best of you to my family," and his saying: "The one who strives for the widow and the poor is like the one who strives in the way of Allah." The other is one who marries her to fulfill his desires, then he demeans her and neglects her rights. His action is an ugly, forbidden exploitation and injustice, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "O Allah, I declare inviolable the rights of the two vulnerable ones: the orphan and the woman."
