You have to stop o before she turns it to something else. The woman is a parasite. Don't let her ruin your friendship with her husband. Antenatal ko! Brodanatal ni! Shey na you impregnate her?

I have a very close friend who has been like a brother to me right from our days in the university, we also worship in the same church, he was my best man when I wedded a few years ago. He got married this year and after the wedding things were not rosy for them the following month and I gave my little assistance as a friend. Around July this year his sister had a life threatening ailment and when he reached out to me I quickly responded with something meaningful. After some weeks his wife told me she was sick when we met in church, I quickly went to an ATM, made withdrawal and gave her money to buy drugs since her husband who happens to be my friend was not in town.

The irony of the whole thing now is
that my friend's wife now thinks that I am Father Christmas and now calls and sends texts requesting for money to take care of her antenatal drugs but I have refused to help because I believe it is wrong and she keeps pestering me.

Please what is your advice?

She's a nonsense woman. she is tarnishing your friend as an incapable man not fit for marriage. Report her to her husband and give all your financial supports through him. That kind of woman is dangerous. later she will start seducing you to sleep with her in exchange for money. As time goes on,she will pin a pregnancy on you. it's painful especially since they just got married. this is not a healthy foundation.

Always assist with the consent of your friend. Don't be surprised that her husband provides her with those things she equally asked from you.
Best response so far.
It's not all about helping someone, there are some help that may put you into trouble.

Tell her you'll send the money to her husband and study her response...Her response should be 'a word is enough for the wise' to you

In the name of Almighty God, do not send any money to your friend's wife directly. Send anything you have for them to your friend.

How they utilise it is between husband and wife.
Your friend still needs self respect. If you are not careful this woman will lure you to bed.

To be fore warned is to be fore armed

I don't think it's right that she gets money from you without informing her husband

That's akin to adultery. If he knows and doesn't think he should thank you for it, then you may review the gesture

Its more likey he isn't aware which makes the entire act risky and morally suspect. The bible says to flee from all appearances of evil. It doesn't have to be evil as long as it looks like ones you should flee


Receiving money is adultery and morally suspect? I hear !
Re: Should I Continue Giving Money To My Friend's Wife? by Nobody: 12:37am On Dec 08, 2018
Op engage ur friend before giving her more money.. I see nothing wrong in helping out but everything is wrong with ur friend in the dark.

Give help to your friend's family through your friend, anything help you are giving to his wife without his involvement would be wrong and can backfire!!!! Call your friend and tell him the whole story!!!

No sane person will love to beg another person for help perpetually, and people always go back to where they have received help before.
I would have preferred if it's your friend that is doing the asking but he might have become tired and frustrated that he is now a charity case. Borrowing without end and not knowing even if he can ever pay back.
Please continue doing your bit, God sees your heart, like I always say life is like a pendulum, you don't know which direction it might swing tomorrow.
this is funny.

There are people who love begging perpetually because they know they have an available mugu.


OP for all you know, your friend and his wife are in cahoots to keep taking from you since you're such a giver. Is your friend no longer responsible for his wife? Are you buying shares in their family with your money?

Call your friend and ask him why he doesn't pay his wife's antenatal. Do not foolishly waste money you should be saving for the future on someone who is saving theirs and collecting from you. There are people who are very much fine with begging from others as long as they are saving their own money. I know a man who trained all his kids with money he got from begging his friends and acquaintances.


You also have a marriage to protect, so, make sure you don't put yourself in a terrible place in a bid to do a good deed

Husband out of work and getting his wife pregnant? How does he intend to look after baby? Don't worry they would name the child after you and make you a Godfather.....

Just stop giving her any money. I had the same experience, and my friend started telling his wife that I was her second husband. She even asked me to never let her husband know, so I took to my heels. Just stop it before it becomes too late

Don't start what you can't finish....even though you want to help your friend is OK, you don't extend it to his wife to complete yourself as good man.

Except your money flowing heavily to exhaust or don't you have responsibilities?

Please don't stop giving her, Just tell the husband before you do. They might really need the money or she might be scamming you. Either way, let the husband know first.

Based on what you shared, it is ok to describe your friend as bossom. Things may be rough today for him & tomorrow better,likewise you have today & may need his help tomorrow,life is dynamic!
As for the wife,she ought not to turn you to atm,however,tell her you are not comfortable helping her directly without your friend's consent,so whenever she has need,she should channel it through her husband and you'll oblige!

Be very careful. You may actually start developing feelings for her and I suspect you already are and that's why you're here. Unselfish acts of kindness can lead to develooment of strong feelings towards the opposite sex.

Best step you can take is go meet her husband and inform him that if he needs any help especialky cash, you'll be there for him.

Or tell him,you'll be contributing a certain amount towards antenatal care monthly.
