Hello friends, 1st of all, I don't want you to see me as a man that involves third party in his marrital life/affair, am not that kind of man, in fact a lot of things go on that I rather let it stay in my home for us to sort or face together than involving family or friends but this challenge is really heavy for me to bear.

I don't really know what else to preach to her that I don't like her behavior anytime am broke ,for me it's a total turn off because it always makes me feel like am not being appreciated even with all my efforts to make us happy.

My wife nag anytime am broke or notice my pay ain't coming soon, all she does is play blame game like telling me all sort of story, like she never eat since last year, like she's not happy, that the marriage is hell because of just few days broke, and the few days broke doesn't mean no food for us, the few days broke doesn't mean I won't raise money to fuel generator talk less of some more important bills. I am just 10 months old in this marriage, please, real men in the house kindly advice me on what to do, if am the one being wrong here because I don't understand why she's always like that.

Lalasticlala I wouldn't mind front page at all because I really want to learn from all other husbands out there... Thanks

Very sensible post...would v sounded better without d use of d "b" word.

Only way to know who loves u for real is to appear broke. Her true colors will shine thru in difficult times.

A friend of mine, a banker, was suspended pending investigation of an alleged fraud.guy man sold one of his cars, set up a shop, and tried to make ends meet. After 7 months of no banker's salary, his wife took off with d 2 kids. He was recalled last month, and now d wife wants to return. If na you, wetin u go do?

I think it's like that for every woman. I don't think it has anything to do with her being a gold digger. OP, you would agree that you also get frustrated whenever you just got paid and all your income is gone in a matter of days. In this case, you may have been a more mature person dealing with days ahead without any money.

Even if you married her when you had nothing, if she gets too used to not needing anything for a long time, it may be difficult for her to adjust when you're broke.

I know it may not be easy, but just calm her down. Let her know you're doing your best and that her nagging wouldn't help your mental state at all. If she can get supplementary income to support by finding a job as well, that will go a long way in keeping your home together.

If there are extravagant spendings in the home, you and her may want to slow down with that at the moment and focus on the needs.

Finally, don't forget to save for rainy days when your income rolls in again.
All the best bro.

Some kids are here again. Anyway, your courtship has raised a question. One key factor is missing and that's "Understanding", it plays a vital role in every relationship when love not to seem to be working. You scenario is not unusual in such an early marriage. It's either she is pregnant or she is not working. This is public post, could have said more. FYI, I have been into similar shoe of income wahala but found my way out in my marriage. .........

Op.... I wouldn't say much... As you've clearly put it.. She's not happy with the marriage... If you dig deep.. You'll noticed that, the man she would've married is still communicating with her, perhaps, telling her how he's doing too well and how he's sitting untop of money and how she's missing out.
.
.
You have to study your wife.. And you have to scold her if need be... You have to keep love aside and scold her severely to know that you're the man of the house... These kind of wives will leave you or even divorce you, if you lose your job...
.
.
Just play a prank on her... Design a Sack/Termination letter and show her.. And she will leave u with few months.
.
.
You actually married a woman dat will not be able to stick with you when things get rough... And what is she even doing at home? Can't she work?

Op hope u re reading this...

Two things that define people in life is their PATIENCE when they have NOTHING and their ATTITUDE when they have SOMETHING..
So bro is either your wife is an ingrid or a gold minner.

Na wa o.

Abi una no get work?!
Is the OP an orphan? No parents, siblings, relations, friends, colleagues, even his IN-LAWS to talk to, na nairaland him wan use solve him marital problems?
Is it idiocy, or simply a lack of imagination?
Who knows how you sweet-talked her into marriage? Or how much you earn, what promises you made, what her and her family's financial background are?
Did you meet her at a bar or church, propose and get married in a week?
Of all her friends, family members, work colleagues, maybe even neighbours, you no see anybody tell dis matter, na for public forum you come dey spread your dirty linen?
Abi pastor miss from una wedding?
Even whirlwind romance dey get many witnesses, na hia u cari ur mata com, a hole hed of famili?
And you dey wonda y she dey nag u?!
You must be a womanwraparous niny.

And for the rest of you on Nairaland, especially the mods-

Oh, the humanity.

GHoJes:
I'm not exonerating your wife, it is often said there's a reason for 'her' nagging.

From what you put up there i can deduce she nags because you are not good with managing finances, may be you are the type that must spend as long as the money is there unless you want to confidently tell me you married an insane woman.

From my screen, you dont speak of being responsible, much more to your wife who is close to your skin. The lifestyle you have up there says your pay is not so bad yet you are always broke, people who earn less are managing better. Why is it that you guys have get to the point of recurrently waiting for the next pay like your life will stop if it dosen't come in the next one week? You dont have savings, investments, future financial security in case of the unforeseen and you say your wife should not fear for the remaining days of her life from what she has seen these ten months.

She may have food to eat but just decide to rub the "brokeness" in your face to see if it will make you sit up. Man, you are no longer a bachelor that can live only for today, you have to make your family financially secure. Seek ways to improve on your financial management and stop using the word broke more than the jobless or a student. If your wife is better with management, keep ego aside and let her do the managing. Also assist her to get any small job or business. You get work, e be like this, naim be say you for run comot house if you and her no get anything.


Anybody here that can confidently tell me his salary runs from one pay day to the other please raise your hand.

OP you know what the issue is? Your wife no see better issue to quarrel about and since its in their nature something must give.

You want peace? Get a soji friend who is female and tell her what youre trying to achieve. Both of you establish an online affair for chat purposes. Let this go on for about a week of heavy convos be as descriptive as can be.

Then get your wife to see you chatting on the phone laughing like a teenager falling in love for the first time while you do this especially when shes in her nagging mode.

Guard your phone seriously

continue this for about four more days, keep a few late nights, you know the drill then one day 'mistakenly' leave the phone for her with enough time to read the messages.

When she confronts you be cool about the whole thing like you dont give a damn how you feel and its your life so youre entitled to live it how you like.

Never reveal to her it was all in a bid to reset her thinking at the end of the whole process. You see she needs to understand that shes not safe and that would put her on edge so much she will never remember to nag about being broke again

Thank me later.

All this talk about leaving the house when shes nagging blah blah blah, after paying the rent or after she does? Hain! Make i hear word.
Try this my approach youll be glad you did.

You cant be too nice with them o, like someone said earlier probably one of her former suitors is stressing her telling her he owns three out of the seven wonders of the world.

Shatter her foundation then rebuild it the way you want it. Its because she knows youre a nice guy

All the best

Did you get your wife based on money? as in when you were dating, were you always giving her gifts and money when she asks for them and also when she did not ask for them? If your answer was yes... then it would be extremely difficult to curb this behaviour, because she married you based on "he has money" mentality...

you have already set the wrong precedence.

This is the reason why I do NOT do relationship with ladies that are not employed or don't have an income producing business.
