"Soon to be ex"? Sounds like there is yet hope.

I am first and foremost an advocate of marriage on NL - wishing a great union on everyone who truly desires it. Your situation is tragic, but hopefully still retrievable.

A wife who is humble and loving wil not consider serving her husband as evidence of his being brutish and selfish. Hope you can both make the necessary adjustments and heal and restore your marriage.

its what you said that is about giving an inch and bla bla bla that is selfish and brutish. And that is the chauvinism you should rid yourself of

Just because you disagree with her statement doesn'tmean I do.

You are entitled to your opinion and so does she. I will be whatever you wanting me to be as long as it helps you feel better. kiss

I hope you feel better? pls tell your friend to challenge her husband, bad mouth him, snub him, or even divorce him.

you called yourself a wife and you are spewing this. shame on you. IF YOU READ MY POST BEFORE COMMENTING ON HER SELF-DEFENSIVE REPLY, then congratulations to your shame.

I get your gist however chatters needs to stop throwing around the word feminist especially if the person has not expressed themselves to be a feminist.

We often times throw an adjective on a chatter if they fits the mold or definition of that adjective. However, a woman choosing not to dish or complaining that her husband wants her to dish food HAS nothing to do with feminism.

It will soon become a mantra that a woman who doesn't kiss ass and say no is automatically a feminist.

Bullsh1t.

I command absolutely cool. When a man presents properly and enunciates his wishes clearly, he doesn't have to command repeatedly. Authority doesn't always have to be on show, leadership is in some regards about empowering.

A truly submissive wife does not have to be bossed, but you wouldn't know this as there are no leaders, no commanders and no authority is wielded in your "equalist" household grin.

Christian wives know how they do - feminists don't be pained cheesy

Ephesians 5:22 - Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord.
Ephesians 5:24 - Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything.
Colossians 3:18 - Wives, submit to your own husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
1 Peter 3:1 - Wives, likewise, be submissive to your own husbands,
1 Peter 3:6 - as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, whose daughters you are if you do good

Don't quote scriptures that benefits you but also quote scriptures that counteracts as well.

Read the verses after the wives submit to your husband verse. The chapter also focuses on CHRISTIAN families and those who are believers.

It does not apply to non-Christians, non-believers, unmarried couples, and husbands who do not honor Christ and give his life for the church. grin

good luck to your marriage.

you know what? fight him, bad mouth him, in short, DIVORCE HIM....so you can have your peace.

This is no battle of the sexes. This is about love, care, understanding in marriage. Ya'll have turned it into 'I am the man' argument and what not.
I am genuinely concerned about what you men have turned marriage into. Hence, the need to address it

My husband and I do not argue and fight over dumb sh1t like serving and dishing food. We will not allow petty sh1t to disturb the peace in our home but then again my husband and I wasn't children when we gotten married.

No offensee!

excuse me, submitting yourselves to each other has to do with intimacy, NOT headship.

the bible never said man should submit his headship to you, stop misrepresenting the scripture. your husband is your head. Reverence him.

loving you does not stop him from being YOUR HEAD.... GOT IT?

What should pain me... I am still not getting it ( I am been honest here)

When a man presents properly enunciates his wishes clearly.... again, I laugh.... why presenting properly?

I thought you said your wife is not your inferior and you both have equal agency? grin (I saw you edited your post in that polygamy thread) what agency means here is for another day. Soon, it will be equal department or equal institution cheesy

It is not my fault you keep shooting yourself in the foot when you are caught in on one side.

I told you no leaders? hahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahaha!

Brother TV, don't resort to lies... our posts are still on that thread (that is if you don't quickly edit them again)

You that have 'sole authority' in your 'unequal' household don't use it... (Yet your wife is not your inferior)

How does it feel that you have something and cannot/will not use it?

Like I said before, when you start commanding, we will know.. till then, sit back, relax and go and make madam happy.

And who said there is something wrong with her dishing the food?

This morning he almost left for work without taking breakfast and when i asked why he was leaving, he said the service was not complete. So I had to leave what I was doing to dish food for him.

This was directly from the OP

|Wish you happy married life

This is not the question. The question is that OP was busy when her husband was about to eat and he turned the food. She might normally serve him naked, we dont know. We only know what happened that day.

She served her husband, got busy and was unable to serve. Is it not ok for the husband to understand and plate his food? He didnt ask to come eat, he didnt ask for company. He asked for food to a plated. Im sorry if i dont see the sense in this. He was arrogant and immature

you are in no position to ask me that, I won't even dignify it with an answer. how can you ask a marriage counselor if he is married just to justify your point?

I don't need to bring my marital status to the prove anything. conclude that I am not married if you wish, that your business, you stated yours to prove you are an authority in marriage affairs. sorry, I am beginning to doubt that. why?

Peter and Paul were two apostles who were marriage counselors, their marital status had NOTHING to do with scripture instructions from God. one was and the other was not. regardless of what you think, I won't dignify your question.

there is something called preference....the man love being served,it will only take only two minutes...the man won't call you back to refill his plate when he is not satisfied...he just love being served...

You only see this has slavery when you don't cherish your husband...to you he isn't worth your time and strength...your man cannot just ignore your food simply because you didn't serve him properly,he surely has been complaining about such attitude...what wrong in making your husband happy...

see, as a man has wife, I know my wife will not always be around to get me first class treatment as a wife, but how she let's me understand is what keeps the peace at home, because I am not perfect too. however, it does not mean we don't owe each other this treatments.

my wife works in a hospital, am a nutritionist, but I serve in the church as a minister. truth is girls nowadays don't know how to follow up and address their issues, they end up braking their homes.

that is not to say men are not sometimes childish, sometimes in nairaland i say some things childishly for the fun of it which atimes, which i often regret, but we have to get real sometimes in order to address issues. this issue was never meant to be an issue at all.
