My Marriage Is Becoming Boring by rheel: 11:15pm On May 23, 2009
hi ,

i have been married for almost 2 years, my marriage is becoming boring day by day

my spouse comes home late in the name of work and traffic, he complains when i ask him to drive me somewhere, but never complains when he has to go extra miles to pick people out of his way to work, his newspaper is his best companion at weekends even though i try to chat with him and so on.

he hides in the car to answer phone calls, i cant touch his phone any longer cos am scared of what i will see after i once read a message sent by one girl, and to crown it all he acts like a saint.

folks, please advice me

Re: My Marriage Is Becoming Boring by Sissy3(f): 11:33pm On May 23, 2009
with his attitude i bet u he is probably tired of the marriage too.

have tried telling him how your feelings on his attitude lately?

do you have kids?

marriage counseling could be another option before it is too late

communication is a big key to any successful marriage and relationships and honestly i tell you most marriages/relationships fail cox of lack of communication and it amazes me how often ppl tend to neglect it.

most of the ones here imo is lack of communication
Re: My Marriage Is Becoming Boring by Sissy3(f): 12:13am On May 24, 2009
for me i think for a marriage to be successful and fruitful it needs

     *  Love
    * Support
    * Tolerance
    * Communication
    * Realistic expectations
    * Caring
    * Nurturing
    * Sense of humor
    * Commitment
    * Respect
    * Knowing how to handle conflict
    * Problem solve together
    * Interdependence
    * Caring
    * Enjoying one another
    * Having fun together

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm . . . . , i think the women always try to communicate but the men always seem to be tired to talk undecided
Like they say women talk too much grin
Communication is a two-way thing . . . .so i think most men shud make an effort to listen to what their wives have have to say undecided

nagging and communication is two different things and sorry to say this but most women dont communicate they nag (thinking they are communicating) which one of the reasons men gets bored and tired to talk.

of course men should not only listen, they should try to bring things up too. marriage is all about cooperation

Marriage isn't a bed of roses at all, ask those that have been @ it for several years, I'm talking 20, 30, 40, 50 years and counting, . . .

It is up to u to make it work, how bad do u want it to succeed??

how quick are u to essentially throw in the towel??

Communication is key, have a heart to heart wid ur spouse, and let him know exactly how u feel,

Both parties should be willing to make sacrifices for thing to work, it takes commitment, hard work, and dedication!!

best of Luck,  smiley

Of course. So typical of women to blame men for their miseries.

maybe cox men sometimes cause them?
Re: My Marriage Is Becoming Boring by C2H5OH(f): 1:01am On May 24, 2009
Maybe, maybe not. Maybe women don't like being held responsible for messing up.

More often than not, the reverse is the case. Matter of fact, men usually blame their women when they (men) are caught cheating.
Re: My Marriage Is Becoming Boring by tope5000: 1:09am On May 24, 2009
Not just cheatin dear
Even something as little as . . . . telephone call cheesy

No, this woman does not deserve a pat on the back for being faithful to the husband. In marriage you are expected to honor your vows.

Bullshit. This is not a man vs. woman issue. A cheater is an irresponsible sob on all counts. You don't fork up and blame your madness on an innocent soul.
Re: My Marriage Is Becoming Boring by Nobody: 7:41pm On May 24, 2009
well first we should try to understand if the poster husband has ALWAYS been that cold or did he become like that after a year or so of perfect marriage?!
sometimes people misread the signs and think that because someone was all "up there" when dating you, he will be the same after marriage.
also apart from being a wife, what have you done to spice life at home/outside between you and your husband?
to me, this is the perfect case of a 9ja man with his trophy/reproductive wife that is "perfect" to everyone on the outside(family/friends) but nothing but a hole in HIS mind.
