Good morning Jorussia
Same thing happen to our co-tenant in benin - city, the lady waited for good whole 17yrs before her husband finally relocated to Nigeria. But the lady was tempted along the line and the whole issues was resolve base on Benin Traditions. So they are happily living together for good since the lady husband relocated.... My advice for Her is to keep praying and trusting God for Miracle.
That's a true situation of things here,my brother.prinwa has no reason to complain,because, there are many ladies whose husbands are oversea and they fasting and praying day and night to see their husbands once in a year,with no breakthrough at all.

You probably did not do your homework well b4 saying 'I do' to him. Nevertheless, there's nothing impossible with God. While u pray to God, humbly n wisely let your husband know that u're not ok with the form of marriage u both are practicing. It is opening doors for the enemy to creep in. U both need to be together. Lastly, pls DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT consider divorce. Trust God. That's the best option. Grace 2u

stop harrasing him.do as much as you can to legitimately get yourself financially secured,like setting up a shop/business or getting a good job.When you have up to 5/10m.Give him ultimatum to either come home or take u guys with him or serve him with divorce papers,the way you are going,you will sooner than later allow another man to start handling with your boobs and the rest will be history.It is a mistake you made marrying him,having the first kid for him and then going ahead to have the 2nd kid in an unsettled marriage.Accept youve made a mistake and the issue is do you want these mistakes to ruin your entire life.you marry to have regular sex and companionship and you are not getting it and very soon you will become less and less mentally and emotionally unstable.

I'll strongly suggest you should stay married for better for worse.
How do you get lonely with 2 kids tho'?
love is very strong when it.s genuine. There are women that such estrangement can cause serious break down and other psychological blows. My wife is more attached to me than our kids. Itz unbelievable that any time I refuse to talk to my wife or see her for up to 48 hrs she falls sick with hot fever and tremor. U wont believe but Itz just as simple as that. Thanks goodness the lady is not used to him line hook and sinker kind of.

Emotionally she feels pains.

There is an immeasurable feeling u get from physical presence of the one you love.

The kids could be good company; friends and relatives as well but nothing compares to the physical touch, kiss, sight, smell of ur darling darling. cool

Prinwa tell ur husband how u feel. Explain to him in detail what u are going thru due to his absense and how it is affecting d kids.

He may be too focused on making money and forget how much his presence is needed in ur life and dat of ur kids.

If he truly loves u, he would start thinking of either working papers for u guys to join him or relocating to naija.

My advice,you can't put your hand on plough and look back,you most stay in that marriage,I know the physical,emotional feeling will be there,the only advice I can give you is that to find way to do it yourself if you can't bear the emotion instead of having boy friend,because that will worsten your marriage and you will regret at the end. God bless you

AM VERY SORRY TO SAY THIS THOUGH.

for a man to marry and abandon his family in this manner is the height of irresponsibility as a father and a husband.
am avin a second opinion bout d value he places on his wife nd family nd i doubt his nt avin ........

You need to call him back to order befor ur kids strts to refer to der father as mum's frend

In your senses, you feel it's smart to offer advice without background knowledge of the problem. That shows your level of smartness. The OP did as I said and now she's getting better advice from wise people. Dear, get therapy, motherly love or Jesus, you need at least one of these.

Sorry for the way I talked to u. Was in a bad mood and its never in my character to be unfair to pretty girls like u.

The best solution to your loneliness is to go and get an attachment that will make you happy.

Sowie my dear. This is part one of ur marriage, which involves getting married, having kids, and preparing for the next stage. Now is the time to start part two, which will be raising your kids living togather and gaining financial stability. Go back to the drawing board and discuss this next phase. Let him know how you feel and what harm the distance is doing to the marriage. ULTIMATELY, IT IS TOO EARLY TO GET TIRED. AT YOUR AGE YOU SHOULD HAVE PLANNED TO STAY MARRIED FOR AT LEAST 50 YEARY, FIVE OUT OF FIFTY IS VERY VERY SMALL. Stay strong my strong my friend!

Initially when we got married he told me he will prepare my papers, which he did but it didn't work, because i already had my daughter, so the embassy said that he doesn't. Have enough income to take care of me and his daughter. We kept on trying over and over again but nothing. Seems to work. Now i have another baby who is 11months old. My daughter gave him alot of space. My concern now is that he told me February this year that when he gets back to Europe that he will apply for his citizenship, so that it will be easy for him to take us. Up till this moment he has not applied for it. He is taking good care of financial, i won't deny that. But i need companionship, i need a man in my life. I feel empty with out him. I don't want my children to grow without their father.
step 1 .invite him back home. Step 2. Prepare his favourite dish. Step 4.let him enter your bed room when kids are at sleep. Step 3.. Kneel down and hold his legs and let him understand your pain. My advise as a solution is . Tell him to come back in nigeria to set up a business. at least 5years for that place no be moimoi .I summit

OP,i quite understand your feelings.this scenario is very common here in benin city.You are very lucky that your husband comes home every year, as there many women here in benin, whose husbands have not come home for than 5years and they have endured. I know of a young pretty law graduate,whose husband has been away for about 2years now,and she has endured it.A lady in my church, waited for almost 10years for her husband, who should be in Nigeria anytime soon.I don't support long distance marriage, but i urge you to continue to pay the sacrifice of endurance to keep your marriage.
nice one bro,you've said it all..I'll advice you to be very strong for him and turn deaf to any side talk.The children and the dude gesture towards them alone has shown the commitment of your husband in this marriage. I want to tell you that what he's doing presently is neither for himself or you,it is for the children. It takes time to get stabilise over there,all you gat do now is to support him with prayer and holding yourself strong and keep the family going.You will surely laugh last. Your husband is for real...May be I should round up with this..."If you believe this place is good for you and you are okay here,pls hang on"..President buhari to Nigerians in USA.

Her marriage is five years old already and I'm sure the law wasn't like that then.... Don't know about the present law though...

Op, if he told you the marriage was going to be like this but you still went ahead, then I wonder what your headache is... You don't want obodo oyibo husband again?
don't mind her she want to travel with him the next thing is to divorce him and run with his kids and money

I guess she meant "emotional & sexual loneliness" which her kids can't fill, or am I missing your point?

Typical Naija responses to a sincere question. The lady is seeking advice on how to cope with her situation, but there is a category of women on here, especially the single females that have lost all hope of finding any kind of man to marry (even poor and ugly men are no longer looking their way), all they have to offer on here is bad advice, or whatever they can say to destroy the op's marriage.
Op- Life is not bed of roses, take whatever you have and make the best of it. The man is wherever he is, hustling to provide a better life for his family, you need to trust his judgement and engage your mind with other ventures that will keep your mind occupied until your situation changes for better. Goodluck!
Re: I Am Getting Tired Of My Long Distance Marriage. by Neplusultra(f): 10:40am On Jul 31, 2015
OP,you just brought out yourself to the whole world! Imagine the advices they are giving you here shocked
It's because of you he is out dere and you are here complaining,didn't you know it would be like this before you accepted to marry him?
I know how it feels but please don't complicate your life!
Everything will be fine,just call family members and talk it over,Nairaland is not the best place to confide in!

Dear poster,

Firstly, I want to tell you that you have chosen a wrong medium for advice, if it must be a social media, then I suggest mamallete on FB, there are mature and experienced people.

Secondly, I would advise that you take everything to God in prayers, as a matter of fact, if you contacted God and got approval from Him before venturing into this marriage, then challenge God on your situation, He is the only one who can mend broken hearts. I pray God will touch your hubbys heart and make him see reasons why he should be with his family. Please do not recent in keeping yourself from immorality.
