I don't know why people are liking this post .. Like he is making some sense or what??

A woman asked for an advice and you're insulting her?

Hey,If someone made you angry previously,why not dispose the anger somewhere else.

Worriedwife:
This issue has been disturbing me, I had to create a new id to get advice 'anonymously', maybe someone else who has gone through this can help. My husband's dress sense is poor, his shoes look like weapons...pointed mouth with very heavy soles. His colour combination is something else. He is a good-looking young man but dresses like an old man.

It makes me not to find him sexy, even his boxers look like soccer shorts.
Whenever we go out, people look at him like he's my gate man. The other day, we went to visit some family friends and someone there said, we don't look like we came out from the same house.

You know how people can be, news have been going around that I am spending all his money on myself while he goes about tattered. My in-laws are also part of the rumour mongers. I have tried to teach him, but he's not ready to learn. Before the usual didn't you know when you married him questions, I knew. He kept saying I am just a girlfriend and I want to change him. Now I am his wife, he still won't change.

Please, what can I do? Won't it be rude if I throw his old wears away?
We recently moved to PH, I don't know my way around yet. Things look expensive here, where can I shop at a fair rate?
I need practical solutions. Thank you all

Sharrraaap!!! You are nothing but a worthless directionless myopic bitchh, and your type abound. I smell your type from 10km; I know a whorre like you that killed her husband just to move on with a concubine. I'm glad the concubine later exposed her for fear of being killed next. You knew him before you married him, yet you greedy worthless pest married him because of his money, now you are looking for excuse and encouragement to poison the innocent man. How many men waste their precious lives trying to please worthless insatiable souls like you. Kama would soon link you with a ritualistist that would do the needful with you.

I doesn't take more than 1 minute to take a picture, neither does it take me more than an hour to get the fabric when I go to the market on Saturdays.
You should be more hopeful 'bout what you deserve .

Welldone too

Divorce him, ASAP!

Worriedwife:

Lol. I pray my case isn't like that of Nigerians, I want the best for him... why the insults from some people .
Thanks a lot. Thanks for every response...I love my husband, I only want him to dress better. I will I have to put in effort.

It's my opinion that marriage is for better for worse, now if he doesn't cheat, he doesn't beat her he provides for his family , he is caring but she is upset he doesn't look like he walked out of a GQ magazine?
The issue she should be facing is why isn't she happy with what she has and instead of bitching about it try and make things work ...
Trust me if she moves to another guy maybe the next issue will be why he doesn't shave his beard ?
She is shallow and naieve that's her issue .

PaperLace:
I understand your concern_ it shows you care. I've seen women who don't care as long as it doesn't affect her own look.
Some men are like that, a woman would know the whole colour wheel (including cockroach brown and custard yellow) while a man is okay knowing just primary colours.

You say you have been correcting him? How did you correct him? We're dealing with a grown man here_ he has been dressing that way without seeing anything wrong in it, approach is very important. Don't insult him in the process, first compliment the quality, colour or fitting..."Shugar I love this shirt, the stripes are cool BUT it would have gone better with a carton-coloured-pants or brown shoes".

Most times they have a mental picture of how they wanna look, but they don't know how to SHOP.
You have to put in work, it's not by saying "hey, I hate your dressing, it embarrasses me"_ WHAT EFFORT HAVE YOU PUT IN, ASIDE THE USUAL TALK-TALK-TALK?

A long time ago, my man was such a rigid dresser_ always so officially dressed like we were going for a meeting. On my part, I loved the whole yipee dressing.
WHAT DID I DO? I bought him 1 or 2 wears first, I remember the look on his face when I got him tan brogues. 'Told him I wanna follow him when next he's shopping. We got there and I influenced his choices.

Now that I have more disposable income, I handle his closet, down to his briefs. I have specific tailors for natives,office/casual trousers and shirts. I know all his measurements down to his shoes. When we are watching TV, he says "see that clothe/shoe, I like it"...I quickly take a pic, go source for the material or a look alike and that's it. He doesn't know what they sell at School Rd, Ariaria, Kent...etc, his own is to wear and receive compliments. I don't have a problem with that, I am okay with him looking like 'my man'.

His dress sense now is 99.9%, everybody is happy now .
Please, note that you do not have to spend millions to dress well, you only need to know the right places to shop.
Try this, come back and buy me any whisky.

I'll edit if I remember anything else.

lestat:
Now, this is the thing... Nobody cares, nobody was there when you said your vows so why should anyone give a single fúck?
Madam take your issues to a counselor or the divorce court if you are too brain dead to work things out.
I mean I have seen couples have issues over more serious matters like finances, infidelity, abuse but this ?
You need a psychologist

GTFO

lestat:
go ahead and crawl back into your hole.... Retarrd

happyday:

Except there's something else you're not saying, I think if you were buying the clothes on his bills (since he's got a great career), it shouldn't bug you. Should it?

lilyheaven:
I actually left my man because of this,
I was 29 and he was 32. But he always looks like a forty five years old man, he had a very great career, he won't even buy a cloth for himself, I kept buying all these things,
One day I said to myself, if I marry this Man, will I continue like this plus our kids .
I left him sha,
But my family were so angry with me.

DICKtator:


Wait...

What?

Because of .....

Come again?




I want to believe you always change your clothes each time they wear off,
I was with him for 3years, same clothes same shoes same slippers,
The day I threw one of his shoes that the sole has fallen, he came back and asked me to return his shoe. The next time I visited, I found out that he has padded the shoe. . You won't understand. Them when I buy, he would say, oh my sweet, thank you.

Go shopping with him. Choose his wardrobe to your taste. Condemn the old stuff. Then encourage him to wear the same dress with you (you guys should wear traditional/modern dresses sewn from the same clothing material; and be sure to get a good seamstress).
It makes me not to find him sexy, even his boxers look like soccer shorts.
