cowgurl: One attitude I can't stand is - outright disrespect. My body automatically reacts to this unfriendly and trust me, if I were a dude - it won't be taken likely.

As the manner of my church is, we went to evangelize God's word as instructed in the Holy Scriptures - and on getting to this flat, we saw a man doing his laundry outside his home so we went to him and pleaded audience which he obliged.

During our interaction, his wife (who just got back from church) walked past us without any form of pleasantries, then after some minutes, she came back out and spoke to her hubby rudely not minding our presence, for the life of me, I was taken aback - as the husband just stood there and watched her did her thing without a word or an action but instead went ahead and apologized on her behalf when she was through and in.

He then informed us how his wife's attitude towards him changed after he lost his job and tears almost dropped from his eyes, I felt sad for him really but also got thinking if the wife's action were right given the man's plight.

greatgod2012: Nothing, he has been with me thru thick and thin, i should also be with him thru thick and thin as well, life is not only what i can get from it, it also involve what we can offer it, infact, when my hubby is financially down, is when i seems to take care of him more than when hes financially bouyant, so that his self-esteem will not be affected as a result of his present financial position, that remind me of when they werent paid for some months, that was when i increased his meats to four, so that, he wont start thinking im reducing his food because he wasnt able to drop much for us. A good husband deserve to be treated well, whether money flows or not, since he hasnt been the stingy type when hes financially bouyant.
Meanwhile, those things i think can make me disrespect him are....
- If he becomes abusive.(God forbid)
- If he turn to a cheat.(God forbid)
But, for now, i just cant, he deserve the best treatment from me.
May God help us all.

Abujafood: Poverty will make most women to disrespect their husbands!

nmagirl: i witnessed a similar thing at a salon one day. A lady just finished making hair when the husband came to meet her; with smiles on his face he told the wife that her hair-do is fine and wanted to touch it, to my utmost surprise, she slapped the husband's hand away telling him that he's not ashamed to touch a hair that a man like him paid for. It was so embarrassing, in fact shame leave the man catch me. Some women can be so mean; just because her husband lost his job.

Did he remind her that he was a Spartan?!

freecocoa: If he stops respecting himself then I have no option but to help him out with that

vanstanzy: I bet for most of the ladys, the answer will go like this; he has no money to take care of me n (my kids) and he cant f--k me hard. FALSE?

PAGAN 9JA:
OP WHY ARE YOU SPREADING MAN-WORSHIP AND CORRUPTING NIGERIANS!!!
CHRISTIANITY SURVIVES ON PLAYING WITH PEOPLES EMOTIONS!

nwando:
There are two sides to every story
Do you know what the woman had suffered in his hands till she reached her breaking point?
Do you know what transpired before you came in and what she had endured in the years prior?
You should have asked the woman her own side of the story maybe you would have started crying for her sef
A one sided story is a dangerous story

coogar:

nwando, go and sit down somewhere with your tunnel vision.
if it was a man mistreating a woman, no one remembers to ask or check what the man has suffered in the woman's hands. it's only when a man is mistreated that people look back on what must have happened. even if the man had suffered her in the past, does that justify disrespecting him in the presence of a third party?

nwando:
Remember that the OP has not told us exactly what happened
I am still waiting to hear what this woman did
