it seems you're more concerned about the butt pads that the real issues you have seeing as you dedicate much of your write-ups to that aspect. Maybe if she decides not to wear butt pads again you will take her back....

Are you the type that like your wife to work and deposit her salary in your personal account so that you will allocate to her how much she can spend on her bra and pant. cheesy

If she gets money you guys will build the house in your name alone so that one day when you're tired you will marry a new sisi and chase her out as the house is "your house" alone.

Most of you have slave master mentality. Tell me why you won't have rebellious wives?

One thing you have to know is that a man is the head of the house whether you like it it not..any woman that thinks she can control her husband should be ready to become single again...and any single lady that want to be the man in her marriage will be chanced by another lady...FACT!

Check ur bible in Isaiah 4:1

In that day seven women will take hold of one man and say, "We will eat our own food and provide our own clothes; only let us be called by your name. Take away our disgrace!"

So if you like continue to do shakara, very soon 7 other women will be struggling to marry 1 man for no gain other than bearing his name...we are getting there gradually. cheesy

I do not support such backward way of reasoning.
If you have money and can't help with bills around the house because you're a lady,why are you a partner then? Abi na decoration you be for the house ?

Things owned by married ppl belong to both of them and not one person.
That's why I cringe when I hear a man in this day and age referring to their matrimonial home as his house alone.

Or when a woman getting married is said to be going to a man's house.such statements are the reason why some ladies don't wanna put their money into tthe marriage since the man won't consider them an equal owner and partner too.

Happy new year too.
Most women will help in the event the man is faced with a couple challenges, the crux however is the consequence of that help. cheesy grin

OP, I must be frank here. You are the cause of the problem. I do not see anything wrong in wearing a butt-pad. Women use most of these artificial beauty-aids to augment their self-confidence and 'look good', it doesnt suggest she is cheating.

I will like to be blunt here; Your wife has done a lot to put up with a man who didnt plan well before engaging in a traditional marriage. You didnt couldnt even afford your rent after traditional marriage and you went ahead to impregnate your wife. Are you silly ? Now the poor woman helps to buy foodstuff, pay rent, and in fact buy herself cloths and butt-pads which is actually your responsibility as a man 100%.

You are NOT financially and psychologically stable enough to get married. I am sorry, this is just the plain truth.

I see nothing wrong in her actions, except ofcourse the curses and abuse, which are actually caused by your actions and inactions.

What about the woman threatening to kill the Op? Don't u see anything wring there?

@Op, it's not good for us to start condemning your wife without listening to her own side of the story, but going by what you have said, it's obvious to me that you have a clear knowledge of your wife's character before marrying her. so complaining of her at this stage is too early. I will advise you sort out things with her family members also advise your wife to stop involving third parties whenever you too have issue. Go to church and seek advice, sometimes it might be beyond physical, with time your wife will get back to her senses. marriage is for better for worse. wish you the best.

My dear, there's a lot of confusion in the marriage union in Nigeria today. I think people are torn between holding back to the archaic understanding of marriage and accepting what's in vogue in this modern time. Anyways, I believe that's part of our evolution process. I am sure we will soon get there. Have a good night rest.

My marriage is just 1 year and few days old,but within the last 365 days,I have seen torment and hell on daily basis. We dated for 2 years before tying the knot,she's a nice person,but her mouth is destructive,she has this overbearing attitude,always trying to control me or dictate the pace,and can keep malice,anger and record of evil done to her for a long time. She's the type of person that talks very well,I mean convincely well,but unfortunately,she speaks more negative words. She can talk for hours non-stop,especially when provoked,saying all sorts of bad words.

She has threatened to kill me & send assassins after me on different occasions in the past,though I just ignored such threats.

My wife has been abusing me verbally and always say nasty things at every slightest provocation and at the same ready to engage me in fisticuffs.

She can really say unprintable words such as "it will not be well with you","as you go out,people will deal with you", "you will work like an elephant and eat like an ant", "this your certificate will never yield you any good thing", etc, name callings,abuses,curses etc.

Please Nairalanders, I will like to know if it is wrong or out of place for a working class married lady to assist her husband in paying some bills or buying some foodstuffs at home. Because,anytime she assists in doing anything,she will record it and consequently use that to abuse and insult me whenever we have misunderstanding and or exchange of words.

After our traditional marriage on December 2013,I had some financial challenges,and then my rent was due for renewable,she offered to assist,at first I was skeptical about it ,because I know her kind of person,knowing full well that she will use that to ridicule and abuse me in no distant time. But,then,I didn't have any alternative,so I allowed her pay d rent. Now,she's claiming ownership,saying ..."which house,the one that I have been paying the rent or another one"...

She has done a lot of character assassination & damages to my personality before some of her relatives & family members(Her father and two sisters),thus they all support her & no longer regard me as anybody.

Few months into our marriage,she started wearing butt pads, I told her to stop ,because I don't like the stuff,but she flared up and we had exchange of words. She told me that she has to look good to outsiders.

Throughout her pregnancy period,she wore the butt pads on daily basis even at home,I allowed her because of her condition,even though it looked disgusting on her. After she put to bed,and few days later, I told her to quit wearing that stuff, but she refused,then I seized it,she started ranting to the hearing of everyone at home & neighbors that I have taken her padded pants(aka butt pad) to native doctor. I just ignored her. Few days later, she bought another set.

On Xmas day(2014),she dressed up & wore the butt pads again,I told her to remove it ,but she refused,then i tried forcing her to do so,and that resulted to a serious fight. She tore my already ironed clothes to pieces(an expensive Indian attire I bought when I travelled to India),I tore hers too and forced the butt pads out from her body.

Hell was let loose that day,because she called her sisters,they came to my house and created a very nasty scene in my neighborhood,they insulted,ridiculed me and made a mockery of me,her elder sister who is a police officer threatened to deal with me,she was talking and hitting her hands on the ground saying that,they are going to teach me some bitter lessons in this town. I tried to respond but my Mum,who's on child's visit(Omugwo) asked me to hold my peace. It wasn't easy though,they also insulted her too.

Since that day till date,my wife doesn't talk to me. The only thing that connects us now is the new born baby.

Her words have actually killed me psychologically, emotionally etc, to the extent that sometimes, I loose consciousness of my surrounding while driving to and fro from work , I will be lost in thought, and on a particular occasion nearly rammed another moving vehicle,if not for the speed bumps on the road that awaken my consciousness.


Her words:"if you are still regarding me as your wife,then you wasting your time". Its obvious she wants a divorce because to her,she's still very young(28 years),and can easily move on. She doesn't give a damn.

She has also repeated that same threat of killing me,these days ,the number of calls entering her phone is amazing,most times,she goes far from the house to answer those calls.

Please,kindly advice me.
Thank you.

u r a weak man! i can't understand what happened to male gender nowadays. btw its your own fault. why did marry if u knew how she is?! stop complaining and deal with a problem! fuccking be a man

Without a sweeping generalization, you can force a horse to the river but cannot force it to drink water, this woman does not intend change neither does her family which intensifies the severity of his problems. Like someone rightly said here, "a bad wife with good parents is better than a good wife with bad parents". This man's disposition is gentlemanly and there is a limit to which your threshold for tolerance plays out. His wife is not remorse, has an inclination for promiscuity and clearly has zero love for him.
You only heard the op's version of what transpired and I can bet you that if you hear the wife's side of the story you'd be calling for the op's head.

No matter who is at fault here both of them should find a way to make it work and it is a man's duty to take the mantle of leadership when faced with such a difficult situation.Being the leader isn't about being right all the time even if you are right but to use any available space and time to swing changes that would conquer whatever that was the problem.

If you're talking about the phones calls she makes out of the op's earshot, let me also remind you that women does that a lot just to wake up that jealous monster in you and watch you die with jealousy ,she is just unleashing one of her weapons after all you guys are still at war and in war everything that would stun the enemy is a fair game.How many guys are out there that would welcome a fresh divorcee with an open arm including her baby with her breast flowing with milk and all that stuff that follows the after birth?

I have seen two couple that wouldn't look at each other eyeballs to eyeballs after one year of their marriage with each of them threatening to divorce all day long but now they have 3 kids and happily married.Sometimes we need to go through fire to remain in one piece unless you probably think that living with another human being in one's life for years to come is a child's play.

Marriage will never be a bed of roses my friend and those bad days and things come in different ways.

An old uncle once said that what made him to divorce his wife in the 60s was just enough to divorce her, but right now in this new milennium that women no longer get divorced for doing those things. grin Funny though, but the lesson there is that if you end up divorcing now you might just wake up after ten years of running up and down to understand that all you did back then was not necessary anymore as events that are unfolding will now open your eyes to your mistakes.
Re: Separation Is Imminent In My Marriage. by Lerumo: 11:03pm On Jan 04, 2015
You knew her kind of person yet you went ahead and married her.

My advice to you.
1.Take your wife out to a serene and neutral environment and have a heart to heart talk with her. Bear your mind and let her bear her mind. Try to see if you can work things out.

2. If 1 does not work involve your religious leader or some elderly people you know can intervene.

3. If that still doesn't work then you guys can decide the next step yourselves. Whatever you decide try to do it amicably and move on with your lives.

The world would not end with whatever decision you take. Life goes on.

Robust and rich. Except for the curses, threats , no-love state and very compelling statements to prove her lackluster attitude towards rebuilding the shreds, I'd suggest the OP takes a cue from your impressive suggestions.

You need to sit up and work on your marriage.

Work on your wife destructive mouth by blessing her even if she said negative words. It takes time, effort and prayer but she will get over it. Praying together first thing in the morning with each partner blessing the family is a good step in the right direction. Get her materials and books to work on her mind.

Also work on yourself, you need patience and prayer, tearing your wife's cloth in anger and fighting will only detrioriate the situation on ground. You don't give up just because your wife speaks some negative words or have some strange behaviour. You are expected to lift her up when you noticed her weaknessess.

Every marriage have its own challenges, this is your own challenge and deal with this decisively.

Now you have seen it because am very sure if d lady had nothing before you guys married, u would have ignored her side because you will say she's not working, so she can't help you take care of some bills when you get married. No matter how a busk up a lady is, don't expect her to pay bills for u because she will definitely use that against you in the court of law! And to the rest of you guys out there, when u do d spending in marriage u will have say and strong mouth to talk, if d reverse is d case, then she will be expecting to say 'ma'am' anytime your wife calls you.

It is good to see your response because I was thinking your story was fabricated. If your story is anything but true, it is very painful especially with her choice of words and emasculating you in front of our family. She has failed as a wife even though you have your short-comings. I will still advise against divorce, give her the silent treatment and in this period do some contemplation. Approach her for reconciliation and if she is still adamant, call for a family reconciliation meeting but I don't know if this would help if she doesn't realised her issues or want reconciliation. However, you must exercise all peaceful medium before any separation.

We probably do not know how you feel but it must be hard for you. Pray, contemplate and hold strong.

PS - don't fight or struggle with your wife again in the future, it reduces you.
Re: Separation Is Imminent In My Marriage. by raymondinc(m): 11:29pm On Jan 04, 2015
My friend my advise is that you leave that house for her, don't even think about eating her food again that's if you've still been eating from her pot. Rent an apartment else where and make sure she doesn't get to know where you are staying. As for divorce don't attempt it cos that's exactly what she is looking for else your property and money would be divided since she's got a child for you. Just leave, as time goes on you can strategise on how to be going about seeing your baby from time to time, and shouldn't go when the fire is still on. Because if you don't, she will end up killing you for that person she is madly in love with. Just be a man.

OP you don enter ONE CHANCE!

My advice for you will never be a divorce. As a Christian its not scriptural, except you caught her cheating.

But I'll advice you to leave the home for her, prepare for a month or more break till she comes to her senses. Pray for her while away and get closer to God yourself - she can still change.

Never go back until she's ready to change and sign an agreement in the presence if both family members. Her family must sign not to interfere in the marriage again. And if she does not want to change, don't go back except for your child - let me see the kind if man who will marry her.

You have already made a mistake, it can be salvaged with God's help. But it's time for you to man up and stand your ground - not about fighting, but showing you can do without her and the family.
