Faithful Husbands, Trusting Wives, Sign In Here. by zayhal(f): 8:55pm On Dec 17, 2010 |
The rate of infidelity in the society has indeed reached an alarming rate, so much so that it's now seen as a open secret. While I don't have the figures to state who does it more between men and women, I believe, from what goes on around, that men who go into extra marital affairs are more than women who do same. So it makes me wonder, do we still have men who can boldly say in all truthfulness, that they have been 100% faithful to their marriages? Married women, if you're 100% certain about your husband's fidelity, you completely trust him, please, let's know. Please this is just a show of worry and concern about our society. Only mature comments are welcome. No insults and/or gender attacks. Thank you. |

I beleive that there are still quite a number of men of integrity around. We usually tend to hear the bad stories more than the good ones. |

Not a prerequisite of African marriages. But we are now. . . having done it all. You have to do it all to be able to satisfy all righteousness. It takes two to tango. The laws of demand and supply too. |

Infidelity and trust is now relative.In some quarters,so long as he/she remain married to the spouse,pay bills and fulfill all matrimonial duties . . .who cares abt what goes on outside while to some trust means for as long as i have not caught him/her . . .all is well. Im signing in 100% faithful and trusting. |

chaircover:Good to hear. The way it's going is as if no man is spared, especially when you see those you hold in high esteem doing it. Blazay:You speak in parables. I don't quite understand you. ifyalways: Do you think this is good enough? Will couples in this kinds of situation be truly happy with themselves? Can such wife say then that her hubby is faithful? Godalone:Good for you. |

How wld u classify faithfulness and unfaithfulness? Do you consider flirting with another person as being unfaithful even though it is just what it is, flirting? what about admiring someone other than ur partner? is that also considered as unfaithful? I'm married (8+ years) and i have admired other men, being the recipient of flirts from other men but that's as far as it went. No touching, hugging or anything of that sort. My husband is the same way. He finds it seriously amusing when other women flirt with him. Does this make me a faithful wife? In my book and in the eyes of my husband, yes! to others i might not be. |

zayhal:ZayhaL,Im not in a position to say or decide if its right or wrong.I wud say whatever works for any couple. Personally though,i dont think that is good enough,atleast for me. Psalm23 explained in detail what im trying to say,faithfulness and trust is soooo very relative,at the end of the day,each couple knows the standards they have set for themselves and understands the benchmark for what they define as trust or fidelty.The good old rules applies but probably not as rigid and static as before . . .for everyone. I know what I and mine have defined as fidelity and trust,we are both 100% true to that. |

Is it ignorance, or a simple inability to accept the truth that make people automatically connect infidelity with men? Research after research has consistently found out that the variances between male and female infidelity rates are so close as to be negligible - between 3 -5% In fact, looking at Nigeria in isolation, the variances would probably be closer. Just doing a limited sample this year, ALL the married women i asked, confirmed that at least 95-97% of their married friends have indulged in extra marital affairs at some point or the other. To make matter worse, they all affirmed that extra-marital affairs was the only way they they could survive in their messed up marriages. The issue is that the habit of infidelity starts much earlier before marriage. A women who cheats on her boyfriend will almost certainly cheat on her husband - given the right conditions; and vice versa. My simple research (though not scientific) has concluded that infidelity has become a habit in Nigeria and it is now seen as the norm amongst those who practice it. |

chaircover:@Bolded so true. Spouses pausing to think when they get to the next of kin line especially when it comes to money matter.People staying glued in marriage and enduring it just cos of the damned pre-nup(either they cant afford to lose out everything or they are actually saving to pay-up and be free ).Wheres the trust gone to Timmi:wow wow wow Congrats. |

zayhal: My first line says it all. I don't know any. Not an important factor in my marriage. Most men are not faithful boyfriends, so why expect them to be faithful husbands? Women and their issues I tellya. |

zayhal: Just wondering why start a topic if you cannot give us 'your' own side of the story huh? Only 8 replies and 270 views. . . (not counting the other 'echos') I guess it means trust can only be defined within the boundaries of 'fidelity' if one chooses to eh? I already know what she can do. . . that does not constitute a 'breach' of trust. . . . and vice versa. The marriage is solid. |
