I’ve been married to my husband for over 30 years and we have two grown-up children. I have now reached a stage where I feel my life has ended. My husband has become so grumpy and lazy and won’t lift a finger to help around the house. If anything has to be done, I always have to do it myself. He won’t even have a decent conversation with me – all he does is watch TV, even if there is nothing of interest to watch.

He’s retired but I have a thriving business I run away from home, yet he won’t help me at home, even when I’m ill. I want to leave him and have discussed the possibility with my eldest child. Both my children know how unhappy I am with their father and have agreed to support whatever decision I arrive at. I want to be happy again as there’s absolutely no love or affection between us any more. Any advice for me?

Seriously, Nairalanders don't care

What God has joined together let no man (or woman) put asunder.

Your reaction matters a lot. I think you should see a marriage counsellor.

Mid life crisis. Ma'am you need to see a counselor.

Madam why u like lie, just tell us u now ve a young chap screwing you

You ve 2 grown up nd still u want that old man to help you sweep, wash plate, do laundry and cook for you...

U even trained some useless kids, how can my mum call me today and say my dad does not support her with chores in his 70's nd she won't regret dialing my number.

Madam you are begining to dislike your husband and tired of your union after 30yrs,.....hmmmn well hear this: (proverb 14:1) says "A wise woman build her home, but.a foolish woman destroys it with her own hands" The choice is yours, thanks.

Have you tried talking to your husband? Let him no that you're no longer happpy in the marriage, and if he knows he's still interested in making the marriage work, he should sit up and change his non challant attitude towards you.

herzern:
Everyone wants divorce

Is there an hidden reason for this??

Marriage is over rated...


At some point in a marriage boredom starts to set in

this woman what are you still looking for 30 years in marriage is no joke at all madam i think you be heavenly mind now not leaving 30yrs marriage that has produced grown up children.

Females and their craze for Trends is really appaling, so if young ladies are complaining about their husbands and filing for divorce should this old mama also do the same, just to follow a stvpid trend, i wonder what advise she would give to her kids if they find theirselves in the same situation, Trash!.

I wonder if divorce will now make the man help her with the chures, when they are seperated.

OP, this should had been in Family section if you want it to get lalasticlala's attention.

Tell me the truth and i can help
