A man should purposely arrange weekend away for his wife most weekends and holiday must be compulsory. She must travel for a long while. And you should be able to survive without any woman. You should always have your space most times. Staying away from your wife for months should be a routine. grin grin grin grin

Frankly He's just being lazy.

How was he surviving before he got married? After marriage he relinquished basic responsibilities such as cooking, cleaning etc solely to his wife

These are the reasons why a couple should do chores together. Cos she can be sick, pregnant, had a baby etc.
I hope he appreciates her more after coming to the realization.

Guys your wife/fiancee/GF is not a machine or a paid maid, if you can't do all those chores. How do you expect her to do them all alone and she's the weaker sex?

Here's a few tip on how i share chores.

1. Follow her to the market, am terrible at pricing things so I don't even bother, but I carry the bags, by watching, I now know how much a particular item should cost on average. I can now help ones a while with market, tho she always say they cheated me.

2. Am with her in the kitchen, I help dice okra, clean fresh fish, blend tomatoes etc. Now am a pro in cooking.

3. We clean together, Saturday being a major cleaning day.

4. I wash my own jean, and help with hers, while she washes all our clothes that require hand wash, she is very meticulous. Boxers, bedspread, towels etc goes to the washing machine.

Like my mom will tell us her male children, "men don't NEED respect, it is women who need it, between a man and a woman, the man will always be respected, he doesn't need what he already has"

This's how men should reason for a successful relationship, whether marriage or friendship. Though I'm not married but I stay with my junior sisters 3 of them and none of them have ever washed my cloth, instead I do give it to my junior brother. I often say to myself I can't suffer them do that just because I can. The only time I can remember a sister washed my cloth for once was in 2003 and she begged me to allow her do it. I like doing it by myself or give out to drycleaners when it's many.

I don't know whether it's only me but I see women as vulnerable. Men should respect women. Women are no less human than me.

say God should make provisions for them to take vacations together, you
did not see any good thing to say but to imagine one of them dead. You
are a wicked person and your heart is black. If you don't change, the

My husband can't stay. Not because he can't cook or take care of himself.
Basically, all he wants me to do is wake-up by his side, happy every morning. smiley

He won't even be able to eat because we have grown used to eating together over the years.
you are married? You just look too young-abeg when my age mates are getting married why should I be surprised? Congrats sha.

Wtf is this?

Are u a man or woman?
You must be very close to your mum while growing up, probably that was how she instil that female mentality in u. Gosh, u reason like a woman.

What!!!!!! holding bag for your wife in the market while she is buying stuffs, damn!!! I won't even allow my younger bro do it.

Honestly, a man becomes a maid if he ends up doing all of d above.
It's lugubrious the world is increasingly producing more feminine men.

@op I don't see any reason why a normal man won't be able to stay without his wife for a minimum period of 1 year.

Your ex frnd isn't a man.

A curse can only hold if given by a spiritual authority, e.g spiritual director or parents. Anything short of these is a mere commentary.

Depends on what you mean @OP

Some guys can take care of themselves perfectly but are not fine being alone even for a few days without the wife.

I had to cut short a holiday I took because DH was mounting pressure on me to come back even though he can do EVERYTHING for himself.

Men angry


what i have learnt from some married around me is no matter how independent a man may think he is, the moment he's connected to a woman through marriage bound by love and understanding, never you separate the man from the wife. stories abound where the husband couldn't take the shock of their wife dying.
