laides,if your husband asks you to quit your job and become housewives, wanting you to abandon your career that you have been building without any tangible reasons and considering the economic situation would you do it

for what

why wld i do that n for no congent reason

that is insane

and inconsiderate of him too

I will laugh him to a divorce,

i definitely wont be marrying a woman who would rather sit at home and claim to be a housewife!!

myndofgold:

I will laugh him to a divorce,

I wud ask him to sit back at home and take an odd job "husbandry"
Seriously,hes got to give me cogent and solid reasons and if i ever must do sumtin like this sef,it wud be 100% of my OWN accord,not sweet talked or forced into doing it.

Hummmmm. . . . .I'm wondering what his reason would be. . . . . . .

He would need to have a very good reason for that. I couldn't do though, I cant sit at home all day being "housewifey." not contributing, doesn't click well with me.

tangible or intangible reason, No.

...

I would not do it.

My husband would understand that i am not housewife material and asking me to quit and stay at home is an insult.

There has to be a very STRONGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG REASON/S AS TO WHY.

...

Thank God my husband will never do that

Remember Idle work is devils workshop

The word housewife makes me cringe.

@ topic
This is an issue I have to discuss with my husband before I get married so that he can't from the blue wake up one morning to tell me I should quit my job. Even if he does, he would definitely know my answer which is NO.

finish your statement naw naw

Why would I not do it? Where else would I get the time to concoct the juju that would turn him to mugu?

Hello ladies, what if your husband agrees while you were dating that ok, you can keep your job when you guyz eventually marry but after marriage and a baby comes in,then he puts his foot down that you have to quit your job or else, its big trouble , infact he will rake one day and threathen that he might send you to your parents if you are not ready for the motherly responsibilties in a marriage, what will you do? ( and mind you, he does not want a nanny)So what will you do?
Quit your job OR accept your husband's bluff that he might want a separation, then go ahead with your job?
Dicey right? ,

i and i repeat wil not be a housewife

if he does not want me to work in coperate offices or in the hospital,then let him start up a business for me,and employ workers,i can as well have enough time for my child ,himself and me

MrCrackles:

@topic

by Brash's run-along-the trouser-dingo

My husband would never demand such of me. If so then i really dont know what i would do.

What kind of man still does that in the 21st Century? This ain't medieval times i want to marry an asset not a liability ooh what happens if God Forbid something happens to me and i am unable to take care of the home how would my wife and kids survive?She has to work ooh if she earns more than me self no problem but she still has to give me that respect as her husband

@whatever90 :

I agree with you 100% , either let me get a paycheck or give one! Either way one is coming to me with my name on it.

@ whatever90, you honestly believe he would want to open a business with workers’ filled for you, abi? When his main agenda is to make you stay puT at home . He will simply tell you that to open a business that befits his beautiful wife, it need substantial amount of capital to arrange it to your taste? C’mon think of our savings for Christ sake, do you want me to run bankrupt, just try and understand, stay at home and train our kid for 2years, after that i would have saved enough to conveniently open your buisness for you .

@ Angeleyz, unless he is a billionaire O!, if not? He would still want you to stay home and care for ‘our’ first child’, so he/she will be a well brought up child.

@ Sistawoman, that’s a typical reaction/ thoughts of an independent wife who will begin to wonder why is this man trying to complicate our lives, 

@ A-40, men like that still exist, very welllllllll,

*Naija man and puerile threats with naija wife that'll condone crap**hisses*
Send you back to your parents? It looks as if someone would be moving into my own house to avoid such statements in future.

Lol . . . . .but i agree though
An Idle mind is devils workshop

I guess i will never really understand a man or a woman for that manner that flips the script after marriage or after they have the person 'hooked'.

To be totally honest when thinking about this question my first thought was, knowing who I am I told my hubby from jump street that I am a bring home the bacon pay someone else to fry it up type of woman. I would rather cut my eyes out with a spoon than be a housewife.

Then I thought I love this man so much and so deeply would i really change who i am at my core to make him happy? And real talk, I dont know the answer to that question; all i know is the thought of not having him scares me. Does that mean that I am lost in this marriage that i have become one of those desperate, will save my marriage for anything women? No I dont think that means that, i think it just means that maybe my negotiable and non-negotiable have shifted a little bit.

This thread has really given me some food for thought.
