Insecurity! He only wants to be sure you are where u said u are at every point in time. No be say ur line no dey go cheesy.
If that is the case, then i won't take it as an INSECURITY issue at all. To me it becomes a TRUST issue....

grin grin grin hot indeed.
The act is embarrasing me jare and i have told him so. Yet he will still do it.

My colleage was asking me how she got her number and i was like maybe he got it on my phone. The next thing she said was that my hubby was just trying to confirn that she is not a man (i.e maybe i saved a man's number with a woman's name). I told him this and he was like he trusts me more than himself.

apart from the embarrasement, my own issue is why does he have to copy it behind my back? why can't he just ask me for the numbers...........mtscheeew

Godmystrength, this guy dey die for u, u dey here dey question am. Hahaha, abeg I cant fit laugh. Maybe u shd try calling him regularly to keep him posted, eg, i just got to the office; i'm on lunch break, any issue; i'm about to go for a meeting, have you eaten; just left the office, on my way home, have you gotten home; etc. But most importantly, as long as he is not having any r/ship with d females and not asking the males for any favours, just talk to him to stop calling them and try picking his calls even when in a meeting. By the way, if I kidnap u, how much your husband go fit pay, so we can just do that once and for all. My own still better pass your own, me I dey 5pm grace, I close by 5, so once it is five fifteen, the calls don start, even on sundays when I go out, once it is five pm, na to start calling when I dey go house even when he is not in town.

lol. grin grin i make all those calls o. sometimes i even go to the extent of updating him busstop after busstop.. grin grin cheesy

The problem is that my new office is something else o. No phone ringing, no receiving calls in the office, no going up and down to make/take calls,no wasting of time on eating.... The MD/CEO is always on our neck like no man's business. He can call you names and embarrass you in public if caught doing any of the above. So once we enter the office, phone enters silence mode ni. He knows all these and that's why i told him to be sending me text. I also send him texts to check on him. Once it is 6pm on dot, my phone becomes a business center from his calls. in fact i just tire. He has even asked me one day whether i have one male colleague's phone number and i said no.(maybe he has gone through my phone and didn't find his name in my contacts)

If you kidnap me, na gobe o. no kobo to pay you. by the time i am almost finishing your food, you will have no choice than to just chase me away.

Godmystrength: I have promised myself not to complain about hubby again but somethings happened/happens and i just want to know if its just a normal thing and whether i am just overreacting.
I noticed sometimes ago that hubby is fond of going through my phones behind my back and copying out some numbers without my knowledge. How do i get to know?
In my former job like 2 years ago, i was in a meeting in the office and one of my colleague that went to the bank came back and told me my hubby called her and was asking about me (where i was). She was now asking how my hubby got her number, i was just surprised and could only mumbled some incoherent answers to her. When i call to ask why he didn't call my own number but chose to call a colleague, he said my line wasn't going through. I asked him why he called, he said he was just checking on me. I also asked how he got her number and that was when he told me he got it from my phone. When i tried to ask why he did that without my knowledge, he just got jumpy and started changing the line of talk asking what does it matter. I was angry and just couldn't understand the reason for that..
Fast forward to last week, i was in the office and about to call my hubby and my colleague's phone rang only for her to pick and tell me my husband wants to talk to me. I just collected the phone and acted cool all through the call. He was just calling to know if i had reach my office. Why didn't he call my phone, he said it wasn't going through. Same thing happened on Monday when we were in a meeting in the office (with the MD/CEO who is a very funny person that can even call you a fool if your phone rings during a meeting - it must even ring to his hearing during office hours oo)and my phone was on vibration and he get calling me and i was ending the call (more than 10times). it wasn't convenient for me to excuse myself to pick his call (i had already told him that whenever he calls my phone for more than twice and i don't pick, he should just send a text). When my phone stopped ringing, my Head of Dept's phone started ringing (he forgot to put his phone on silence) and he was just silencing the calls. He got a lot of missed calls only for him to pick the call after the meeting and told me that my hubby wants to talk to me. embarassedI was so embarrassed because everybody knew when his phone was ringing continuously and they heard him when he said it was my hubby on line. I just calmly told him that i will call him with my phone. When i called, he said he wanted to ask if i had closed and that when i didn't pick, he became worried. i told him he could have sent a text and he was like what if i had been kidnapped? shocked. Asking how he got my oga's number, he said he copied it from my phone. When and why? He got angry........... I am just wondering what this means and have not been able to make sense from it all.
i want sometime to pass before i raise it with him again but just want to know if it is not out of the ordinary. Who does that?


Tell him politely and calmly to stop before he gets you fired, it is not professional at all. Your colleagues will get talking and you will be shut off from projects because no one wants your husband calling them and asking of you.

Lol. grin

On a serious note, just politely tell him how it's affecting your work and all. I can understand his insecurity (judging from your previous posts) and his need to exert his authority.

Then again, always call/text him just before you go into a meeting and inform him that you will be in a meeting for the next 30, 40mins. That way, he won't have any reasons to call up the whole world looking his Johnny lost wife. grin

I always do o my dear. Just that there are some meetings that are impromptu and there will be no time for calls. Like when the whole dept is summoned to the MD's office and everybody is tensed up. Who has time for text/call by that time? cheesy . Those people he also calls are in my dept and most times, when i am in a meeting, it means WE are all in the meeting. So you can imagine a colleague having to complain that someone was just calling his /her phone all thruough the meeting and that he/she doesn't even know the person and people are like why can't the person call back later only for the colleague's phone to ring and he/she says enhen, this is the same person o. And he picks only for him/her to say xxxxxxx, take the phone, your husband wants to talk to you embarassed

I will try to tell him what Aisha has suggested and if it doesn't work then, i might just find a way to delete the numbers from his phone. (problem will be do i even know all my colleagues that he has their numbers or whether he also has them written somewhere else too or what time do i even have to be going through all the contacts on his phone). I give up jare......

We all agree its insecurity and are just teasing her with the love thingy. If you followed her previous posts, u will prolly understand where the insecurities are coming from.

Sometimes, we try not to "go hard" on marital issues as this as that will have little or no positive effect on the said problem.

But, if its relationship, our advice will be somewhat different, cos there isn't any commitment yet.

I do hope you understand the angle I'm are coming from. wink

Eyah. Sis, please take it easy with him o.k. Just relax. When you get home, calmly sit him down and tell himm the implications of these frequent calls and how embarassing it is begining to make you look at your workplace. Tell him people are begining to complain (even though its not true) and might affect how long you will last in that place. You really need to communicate with him in a deep way for him to understand. apologise for screaming at him. It is well.
