[b]My hubby is the kind that likes FULL time respect; greet me when you wake up in the morning, great me when I come back from work, (yes wiv[/b]es please greet your hubbys oo) am heading somewhere with this please dont judge me yet, don't go out without telling me, don't put your hands in my pocket, what are you looking for, don't talk . Why are gurls of today so childish and immature? Whats there in saying good morning? U c y its not advisable to marry a woman older than u? U senior am she cant greet..what if na she senior u? Common good morning!! If na me ur husband i go de sarcastically greet u every time. U seem to be the over pampered..notice me...cant cook kinda lady. By what means necessary no try antagonise the mum or sis or u either become 2nd wife or ex mrs. Na ur arrogance go lead u axtray. Y go 2 his pocket? What did keep there...my wife does not go to my pocket. So wen money started disappearing i knew the maid was at work...she even had the nerves to be buying all her classmates a treat at school on mondays and fridays!! 2 Likes |

juman:trust me when I say marriage counseling is going to worsen the situation, such men are very egoistic and bringing in a third party will only compound her problem and make him withdraw more from her, my former comment is the only solution, from experience with my dad, she better watch and thread carefully and please op,I want to know if you have kids, so I can advise you on how to make sure it doesn't affect your kids psychologically, I have been there, and learnt alot 3 Likes |

Some people get married for marriage sake and nothing else, maybe your husband is having an affair or he has a secret grudge against you for some reasons, i suggest you sort the issue out with your husband and have a heart to heart talk with him regarding his emotional distance (it is very weird), marriage is not a bed of roses, it is thorny too. 3 Likes |

hello, this is not a good place to bring your family problem, you don't need a third party in your family. all you need is to pray for your husband and your family. if you need help, I can send you some Christian movies to watch on how you can go about it. good luck |

Did you marry your grandpa's age mate? Didn't you court? As in I really feel for the OP o, can't cope with a stuck up, egocentric, selfish man. Someone you can't joke with, play with, discuss with, share your feelings with, etc, married to a stranger. Some people are worse off than singles sef. I don't even know what to advice sef just continue managing him and face your children if any. Just saw the 'Ode ' part, please 'Ode' is not a joke o, it's very offensive. I hope you've not called him that 'jokingly ' before. 3 Likes |

This girl u r stubborn...its a xter trait..sems u cant help tge stubbornness. U ve to come off ur high horse and not try to be the one in control....the greatest yhing my wife ever did was understand me! N me he of course. When ever wr argue she stays quiet...even if she is right. After a day or 2 she brings it up quietly when m sober and shows me where i went wrong. I will be surprised y i did not c her point of view then n will apologise. N we move on. Never ever expect ur hubby 2 be rational in the heat of anger. Use this method n he will see u as less disrespectful n more trustworthy. Babztetmmy: 1 Like |

Babztemmy:@OP dear, you see in life we dont always get what we want. we simply make the most of what we have. STOP with the arguments already. no matter how tempted you are, try not to talk back for the sake of your sanity and the wellbeing of your relationship. hmmm he takes care of you, most of all your sex life as you said is perfect. you have got a very good man. he is for keeps. don't throw away the baby with the bath water as it is said. see,look inwards and sought yourself out first. if he wants to be worshipped like a king, why not? isit too much to ask for? do what makes him happy because it seems your definition of 'happy" is different from his. seems you have not taken out time to understand your mans Love language. you need to understand him, his body language and things or acts that truly makes him happy and do as much of it as you can. Talk of running away, where to? you face your problems head on with a mission to finding a long lasting problem not running away or finding quick fix solutions. simple acts such as "pls" and "thank you" goes a long way. if he is the kind that likes kneeling to greet by all means do.it puts a smile on his face and feels happy, that in turn keeps you happy because he will be kind to you. if he wants to be spoon feed, pls do. if he wants to be bathed by all means. if you truly love him, all these should be effortless. Sister, work on yourself. these are self inflicted problems. you have a good man dont throw him to the dogs. trust me the market is saturated as it where if you know what i mean. God Bless and keep you both happy. ohh by the way...... no derogatory name calling. 1 Like |

How do you dress at home? hope you don't wear those long mary amaka gowns at home while some other bitch is dressing to kill? well, find out those attributes that made him fall in love with you, ignite it. Am suspecting his an introvert, so you gatta try to understand him too... most importantly, sit him down and discuss this issue with him, tell him how much you love him and how much your hurt by his actions... |

I mean don't depend on him to get emotional satisfaction or joy. He is a typical African man and there is nothing you will do to change that instead focus on yourself channel the energy you will use to please him to pleasing urself and ur kids if any and try and get busy with time you will even see his attention as disturbance 1 Like |

Op, do you have a child? If your answer us ''NO'' then he is not happy with you and finds no reason to believe in you,that is why he doesn't share his secret with you. Find time and open up to him and wait for his response. |

Op, I can relate with your story. I once had a guy who was coming for marriage and was always screaming Respect! Respect!! Respect!!! like his life depended on it. Very difficult to please and never finds anything funny. We were together for about 8 months and that was the longest relationship he's ever had. I practically fled cos I just couldn't cope with the excessive demand for respect like he was the King of Heaven. I even nicknamed him Assistant God... These things are not hidden when you're dating and that is when you could decide whether or not you can live with him. 5 Likes |

Here's what you ll do Op. I'm encouraged dat d seX is good..90% of the problem is solved. GET A LIFE!!! Are you working? Face ya work!!! Turn your emotional needs away from him as he doesn't want or need em. .so give am to your pikin, ur friends, ur job n family. Greet am good morning, gd afternoon, good evening n gdnight. No wahala there. Hope u have a job...face it and concentrate on it. People generally want what they can't have...so take it all away. He doesn't want. Your time n emotions are cheap to him and not valued so take them where they will be. He shares secret wit mum n sis...no problem let him kp them there. You..face ur front n keep ur own secret with who u like. Point is u can't force love or emotional closeness. U just leave it and let it come to you. Leave ur husband alone and let him come to you. If he never does, well...have ur own life n people around you. Ce finis. . 6 Likes 1 Share |

Re: It's Going To 5years I Got Married And I Still Dont Feel Close To My Husband by foody(f): 11:22am On Aug 08, 2016 |
my sisterly advice is go to the one that established marriage, he alone knows everything and I mean everything about marriage, in marriage you can not use the yardstick of one family to measure yours. Give Jesus the head of the home your life by the time Jesus turn your life around. even your husband will fall in line with you, the word of God says " if your way pleases the lord he will make your enemies to be at peace with you. I will also advice that you begin to read books on marriage. First of all read Why you act the way you do by Tim Layeh , Spirit control temperament by same author. then when buy books for him too like Finishing strong , etc Also pray for him. pick a particular day of every week to fast and pray for him, the bible says right from the time of John the baptize the kingdom of heaven sufferth violent and the violent taketh it by force, Mount Zion film titled " Stormy seas" too can help. pls whatsapp me on 08131338888 and we shall talk more.thanks 2 Likes 2 Shares |

How long did you know him before marriage? Was he like this before marriage? Something is definitely wrong somewhere and you need to figure it out. Though most people will encourage divorce, but I suggest you should be stay strong. |
