How Am I Suppose To Fight For My Home Here? by Nobody: 6:32pm On May 16, 2023 |
Is like I'm in a sound prof house shouting on top of my voice and no one is hearing me. It seems they don't even understand what I'm going through. I explained everything to my family and everyone including my mother, and they keep advicing me to stand on my feet and fight for my home, so long as they's no violence. That I shouldn't divorce my husband. We always have heated argument, raising voice at each other. My mother inlaw on the other hand, was crying on the phone. Telling me not to mention that name (divorce) ever again. All the family members are not in support of divorce, but the main person I'm married to seems not to care at all. He obviously refused to stop gambling away with any money that comes to his hand. He presently have no job and he's owning a lot. He's addicted and he's not making effort to stop. This is the root problem in my home. Because he exhibit all the wrong behavior as a result of this addiction. Once he have any little money, his attitude, everything changed. He becomes scary. Until he finishes everything in betting, I wouldn't be able to talk to him and he will listen. What should I do? Where do I go that I wouldn't look like a disobedient person, dispite everyone's pleade? I'm using all my time to cry, qurrel and grieve here. Can't find myself. I am not financially stable to make a move without my family's support. 55 Likes 3 Shares |

Dearlove2me: Sorry for ur present predicament, well I was once a strong victim of gambling, my wife and I always have strong misunderstanding in that regard, but my wife on the other hand instead of arguing always she puts everything in prayers and find ways to talk to me in the most polite way. I didn't quit all of a sudden it was a gradual process. Though to be sincere I play game once in a while but not an addict anymore, just for fun. Adopt same and stop fighting him. All the best. 278 Likes 11 Shares |

destiny4luv: Take this advice madam. It might work for you. Everything is not about quarreling and raising voices. Even though he is a broken guy presently, but the pride that's inbuilt in a man is in him. He might feel insulted by your attitudes 149 Likes 9 Shares |

Oloki:He really does annoying things. How can a grown man gamble away with all he has and return home empty expecting food to eat from his wife and little baby whom he left without anything? My attitude has nothing to do here. What I tolerant, even you can not withstanding it. Yesterday was the very first time I really insulted him. It was very annoying but I later regretted it though. 75 Likes 3 Shares |

Dearlove2me:1. Why come on here to ask us what we think if at the end of the day, you don't get to decide what to do next with your own life — you leave it to others to decide for you? Since that is what you wish to do, then wholeheartedly embrace the shit that you are in jor! 2. Since even as a grown-up you own others an explanation as far as how you do your own life, what can you do? Keep crying and waiting for something magical to happen. 3. Commonsense in that would be to go find a job or any way to begin bringing in the income you need. 12 Likes 3 Shares |

Dearlove2me: I know it can be tiring dealing with a hubby that's out of control, but two wrong don't make it right. People encouraging you to stay might see what you are not seeing maybe like village people at work. Like the man l quoted said, if you love him, you pray for him. Is not every time we should be looking for easy way out. There is a price to every achievement. 16 Likes |

destiny4luv:Praying to whom exactly? Are you kidding? You see, Scripture states that God does not answer the prayers of the unrighteous; the pleas and requests and every petition, praise, offering, work, plea, sacrifice, etc., of the unrighteous are tainted by their sins(disobedience/unholiness) and are hence an abomination to God. So, what is definite is that even your many pleas for the forgiveness of sins are not answered by God given that God made no special exemptions for that kind of plea. No amount of praying can cause God to change His mind regarding that which concerns the unrighteous by the way. So if you are thinking of prescribing more prayers that only means you really don't understand or know God at all. God, however, openly bragged about how He only answers the prayers of the righteous; He delights in granting them the desires of their heart meaning that they are those who are loved by Him. For this very reason, Jesus Christ urged His followers to seek first the Kingdom of God and God's Righteousness in order that all things— the blessings and rewards of the Kingdom of God(holiness), answers to prayers included—shall be added on to them. And as Jesus Christ explained in His Gospel, the only way to become Holy, and then also Righteous, is by way of continuous submission and obedience to the teachings and commandments of Jesus Christ, god's Truth and Law in the Kingdom of god - John 8 vs 31 - 36 & John 14 vs 15 - 23. Jesus Christ is the only way. Obedience to the Truth of God is the one and only path to righteousness. No amount of praying and other religious rituals can accomplish that. God deals indirectly with the unrighteous, the same way He deals with the unbelievers including the wicked and the ungrateful and that is by pouring out His mercy and kindness on them daily. So every time as an unrighteous you feel that God has answered your prayer know that at that same moment, or moments before that, God also provided the same mercy or similar to someone else across the world — or maybe just across from you— who does not even believe in God, nor asked God for anything. So, if answers from God are what you seek, then do what Jesus Christ said you should, which is to seek first the Kingdom of God(holiness), and then God's righteousness, in order that all these things —the blessings and rewards of the Kingdom of God(including answers to prayers) can be added to you. Magic has a better chance of happening to her than God hearing her prayer. She needs to get off her arse and move for the sake of her own life and future. 7 Likes 3 Shares |

Dearlove2me: This is how domestic violence starts o. At this rate, you better move out to your family home or to a friend’s place or better still get your own place to avoid stories that touches. Gambling as an addiction requires psychiatric treatment / therapy. It is not something you or the person can just wish away. The person has to be willing to seek care. 24 Likes 2 Shares |

My only advise to you right now is do everything within your power to put hold on child bearing so that if he doesn't change and you want to leave there will be less baggage. How people don't get you can't beat this bet companies is what I don't get. Every new season, there is always a new bet company sponsoring premier league on dstv, that is to show how much money those guys get. 44 Likes |

A serious, harmful addiction. The gambler's fallacy, also called the Monte Carlo fallacy, is when someone thinks that the outcome of a prior event or series of events will determine how probable an upcoming random event is to occur. Now that he's a sucker... Without blaming, tell him how his gambling is impacting others. Urge your husband to get professional help. Do not make threats. I was once a gambler. Gambling addictions can, and most often do, negatively impact marriage. 1 Like
