I lived a very religious life in campus, and was not in any relationship at all. After school , I met this young handsome guy in 2006. Sincerely, I felt I didn’t not merit him because he is very handsome, while I am on the average beauty wise. The only thing that attracted me to him was the look. He was an hustler and lived a low income life. Throughout our courtship of 18months, He never gave me a dime. I came from a financially buoyant famiy, I therefore saw no need in asking him for anything, rather I was feeding him with three square meal. We got wedded in the year 2007, and I gave him the flower of my womanhood (virginity) but I was not really excited for just no reason.

My husband is a caring man, but nags a lot. He nags about the way I handle bathing soap, the way you arrange plates in kitchen, virtually everything. I most often skip for fear each time he wants to talk because I believe he wants to complain again.

I got a job before he did, but one thing I discover is that my husband spends his money without thinking about tomorrow and always depend on my salary to survive the family. In 2008, I gave birth to a set of triplet, and had to quit work to nurse my angels. He was very supportive then. He provided for all our needs and life was good. In 2012, my husband lost his job, I had to take over the family expenses again. I was running a masters degree program, doing many businesses, and still raising kids. I travelled every week in a bid to keep the family running. Each time, I complain about the stress I was passing through, he tells me I am lazy, that many women do more to sustain their families.

This is 2015, my husband prefers to allow me or my dad to pay the children tuition fee than for him to hustle. I am 100% responsible for the family upkeep. Every biz you introduce to my husband is downgrading to him. I am currently on my PHd degree, I am nursing a set of triplet, and still work hard to survive my family.

It is now that I realize that I married my husband because of his handsomeness, and that he is mentally very shallow. My husband thinks like a child and has virtually no plan for his family.

My simple advice for intending wives is this, looks (handsomeness or beauty) alone is not enough to choose a husband, marry a man that has great vision for his life, not the one that you will keep on dragging up.

Secondly, I believe my husband puts all the family responsibility on me because I was the one feeding him when we were dating. Please, let your guy know from day one that you need to be adored and taken care of like a beautiful flower.

To married men and women there, did you make some mistakes when choosing? Pls share with intending husbands and wives to help them make informed decision.
strong woman, man of the house.

i am not married but i feel your pains....i have sisters that i wont want to experience such....i am happy you are not considering quitting or divorce...God frowns at it...don't stop praying for me....you may think you have made a mistake...but God has a way of covering those mistakes and colouring them..your husband will come good for you.......in as much as marriage is to be enjoyed not endured....believe the best of him and he will come good....the God that has sustained you until now will continue to help you....
beauty is "fleeting"....(fleeting means for a moment).... they don't keep homes and marriages....am happy you were objective in your assessment....you fell for the physical traits and ignored the tiny little details that has threatened to wreck your home......little foxes matters
thank you for your advice .....life is not about money or beauty etc.....all is vanity....the rich are never satisfied of what they have, the politicians want more powers,... even the beauty queens still use make up and do all sort of things to remain beautiful .....so never marry because of things like that..the rich also cry ..choice a man/woman that will honour and respect you for who you are .fulfillment comes in purpose...when you know where you are going and when u get there, only dat brings satisfaction ...no man is perfect ...even the author has her faults too but deal and address issues you cant live with now with your spouse before marriage so that you will not regret it later.......
finally...i pray God will Heal your home and fix your marriage....marriage is a divine institution ordained by God and he will touch your husband.....he will make in the father of your children and your husband in all ways........maybe God has brought these things into your marriage to make you see other gifts in you that you have been ignoring.....be closer to him...have faith in him....read books on marriage and visit a counsellor and i believe that in no distant time you will see in your husband what you desire.......have a lovely day......

My brother, at this point, who married who is gone. The issue is raising your kids. Whether you are in a loveless marriage or not, your children should be paramount. You can't afford to leave it for your wife to man your family. If u have issues with marriage that's OK. But do not take it out on the kids. They have got nothing to do with it at all. A man who can't support his family no matter how small is an infidel. As a wife, who makes more than the husband, I don't mind my husband giving me just 1k for food. All I need is his input and support regardless of how small.
Zenanted:
Godforbide I support your Hubby oo,How I wish he will tell his own version of the story becuz its one sided...but since he won't ,lemme just ask this question (1. Are you sure you didn't force him into marrying you (2.Did he get married to you out of His self-will or pity


I believe there is a rational explanation , make una no crucify me oo

You got it wrong right from onset, why should you be the one to shoulder all the responsibility of a relationship, and your spouse can proudly call himself a real man! well may Almighty God change your situation.

Your husband nags about everything, you complain grin

When he has he provides, sooner he lost his job he became mentally slow without vision grin

You know he's from a poor background lust blindfolded you now it becoming obvious grin

Truth be told you never loved him but was attracted by his charm.

Don't just think you are an angel and it's his duty to work his life out just to please you but think of a way to make your rich family support him. Most guys are CEOs and directors of their in law business empire.

All I read was a hate filled post by a distrust woman who is pained in her marriage due to lack of finance. Why didn't you ask the forum how you could help your husband overcome his joblessness?

Like most modern feminist : divorce him his lazy asz doesn't deserve you


you are a disgrace to womanhood

I disagree you married him just for his looks. You saw a lil potential in him. You dont have to be head over heels in love, before you marry a guy. Love grows over time.

When things get rough in marriage then you tend to question why you got married. Marriage is a black market. Even those that marry for Love get to question why they got married, at some point. Marriage is not always rosy. It a phase that will be over. He is not a lazy man. He is probably frustrated too. Men have ego, the fact that he is not yielding to your advice or that of the people around dont make him lazy. You are a strong woman, marriage is for both man and woman. You are there to help him up in times like this. Show him more love and encourage him. Like you said; he is loving and caring. Why not think about the good days rather than pointing out his weaknesses now.

Family success is one success that goes as a far affecting a country and it is when the wife-husband relationship is fixed can everything amount to a good success. Scriptures tell us in the book of Ephesians in the fifth chapter that wives should submit to their husbands while husbands are equally advised to love their wives. The two are expected to do this as Christ will do or as we would do unto Christ.

That passage of scriptures proves that based on Spiritual principles, the husband is the head of the home admonished to love the wife as Christ loved the church. So let us handle the role of a man as the head of his home based on Christ’s standards as the head of the Church.
