Elesta: Hello family, I have a long post about my terrible marriage. Please bear with me, I just have to pour everything out because it's killing me slowly. I am in my mid 30's ,got married to this man in his mid 40's who has never been married before.We attend the same church although different branches, so the pastor of his branch and the pastor of my branch brought us together. We started dating and he seemed head over heels and started talking about marriage immediately. At first, the way he was talking and his reaction to things I wasn't interested and I even told him, but he begged me and the pastor begged me so I overlooked and continued especially considering my age. If I wasn't in my mid 30's and if I hadn't done fibroid operation and so, eager to take in, I won't have made this terrible mistake. We also work in the same place so everything seemed perfect.
Now we started making wedding plans just after one month of dating and we got married 4months after because of church process. It seemed blissful but I stumbled on his messages with a lady he was saying before me and eventually at the same time with me. I discovered he kept begging n begging her even while me n him were dating .he kept telling her to agree to attend his church or dey can be going to their separate churches but the girl kept insisting that they should attend the same church. I. e. he should leave his church and she will leave hers. Don't get me wrong, if this had happened before we started dating, I wouldn't have gotten angry. but all these happened while we were serious and even after he came to see my father, I discovered he was still pleading with her as per church matter. Who does that?? So what if she had agreed for the church matter, he would have dumped me n embarrassed my dad??
I brought it to his notice and he kept saying he never meant it, he was just using it as an excuse not to marry her.
Now in the marriage, emotional abuse never ends. Just fewonths into the marriage, he started behaving somehow bcoz I hadn't taken in. all kinds of insults oh. one day, he said if he knew I couldn't have children he won't have married me. this was just 4months into d marriage. any little thing he complains. on weekends, he expects me to get up by 7am m start preparing his breakfast oh. weekend which is supposed to b for resting since we work Monday to Friday. Every little thing, he keeps saying if he knew he won't have married me. I still remember how he slapped me several times, he insulted me n i insulted him back, that was what caused d slap. even when he saw me crying he wasn't moved. I have complained to family members and friends ,they have spoken to him, he will change for a while and later go back to his terrible ways. I have never seen this kind of acrimony between couple. I am not a bad looking person, I have dated people in d past, they didn't treat me half as badly as this one. I was just too unserious. I want to leave this torture. but we work in the same place and I am trying to avoid wagging tongues. I just tired. I have seen and experienced mutual love and it's not like this. I long to share love with someone that loves me just the way I am. I don't deserve to be with this animal. When it comes to food, he eats so angry if his food isn't ready on time.
Please I need advice. he went for test n it was discovered he has low sperm count. that made him humble for some fine but recently he started saying again that if he had married a younger lady, d lady would have been pregnant by now. just imagine this kind of torture. God knows I have absorbed so much from this man Although what you're going through might be difficult, I'd advise you to be patient, try to understand yourselves, work things out and come to a compromise . Since you rushed into the union and didn't get to know each other very well, things like these are bound to happen . Again, be patient with him and respect him, I believe he'll change for the better . ( your case is not that bad believe me ) 7:00am is not too early to ask for his breakfast...it's just that you're not used to it, that's why you felt like you're being ordered around . 2 Likes |

How were you able to do it without cringing ![](/faces/huh.png) ? Because of one quack pastor? Hmn!!! Anyways, the writing is on the wall. The foundation you both laid was a very weak one...all done out of desperation. He was even deceitful with his double dating. The situation is even more complex now that your 'horseband' has low sperm count and is still deluded.

Elesta:
Thank you so much. Each time I threaten to pack out of the house, you need to see the way he will start begging and even call people to beg me. I think he has a serious psychological problem. Chronic inferiority complex has affected him so much, it's now psychological. He doesn't have parents anymore but his elder brother is very reasonable and always scolds him when I report him. I need to talk to him. but I am scared of raising children in such an environment .my parents don't want me to leave bcoz of what people will say. I wish I can just travel out. that might b d best option. but getting visa isn't easy. We work in the same place,thats why I haven't left him since bops of plenty talk abeg ppl will always talk jor...... provided u wouldn't loose ur job. |

Re: My Husband Is Torturing Me Emotionally by princeFAD: 11:55pm On Jun 10, 2019 |
My sister, they are different angles to look at this issue. First, referring to the low sperm count, you are not bound to remain in a marriage done on deception. But I dont that he deceived you here because he himself was not aware, until he went for a test, unless you are sure he was aware of his issue before the wedding and he hid it from you. Secondly, If your husband is physically abusing and he has serious issue with anger, my sister, do not wait till he kills you. Run for your life |

Sister Rose, i blame you for accepting to marry a man that you knew next to nothing about just within one month of you meeting him just because your pastor and his pastor brought the two of you together. That was the first mistake you made, the second mistake was dancing to the tune of the pastors to marry the unknown man, who does that? except some of you so called born again Christians that sees pastors as being next to God and always willing and ready to accept whatever they tell you without using your own mind. I'm very sure brother Sylvanus knew he was having low sperm count before going through his pastor to look for wife and unfortunately you fell for him, that is one of the problems i have with some of these so called pastors, pairing their members together for marriage not minding if they are compatible or not. It is obvious that you are married to a man that does not deserve you right from day one and so i am going to tell you what you wont like to hear and what many people will not tell you here, leave that man alone and move on with your life, forget about religion and all the bullshiiiiiit about for better for worse, mind you, marriage is a life long relationship, so the question is for how long how are you to live you life in sadness, mystery, with a man that does not appreciate nor truly love you. There are lots of men and women{Christians} hanging on to marriage that is not working and they are not happy in it, but they are holding on to it because of their pastors, religion, families and the fokn society. Sister Rose i have said my own and it is not every time that i am always this serious on nairaland but you are lucky to hear this from me today because there is full network in my brain today, so take time to ponder over my piece of advice. cc: enemyofprogress enemyofpeace iyangbali notoriousbaby dominique fatymore lankybaby vickyrotex folake4u funjosh |
