Submission / subservience is earned.

You want to be the big dog, madam serving you, kneeling to greet you.. Fine.

Put in work get Ned nwoko money then marry a small girl who 20 years your junior. You can pull all the alpha male you want.

If you want to live by so called old traditions, then you better meet up and be the super ultra provider. It is not by having a prick.

So he can't go and dish out food?
I have never dished out food for my husband and he is not a small or hungry man. As a matter of fact even when I stopped working for sometime unless when we are eating together.
Once he finish eating, from the day one of our relationship, he will take his plate and wash, with every other thing he sees on the sink.
It has not reduced him from being a man and the man in the house that has my respect always.

Enough of all these gender rules. It has destroyed more than it builds.

Simple things like that are what endears your spouse to you but it seems like your friend is always trying to bring "I'm the man card" in his union like most of our men do.
The woman refused to dish out food, and she was forcing her?
If she usually dish out food, what made her not to do it at that time. Was she too tired or very angry over something?
Did he try to know what was her annoyance, rather he want to exert his right as the head by ordering her to do that. Somebody that houses and feed you?
Common, u guys are really very dumb sometimes. It takes so little to make women lay down everything they have for guys especially working ladies but pride will never allow you guys to see whats before u.

May you never fall inside Lagos lagoon on what you've turned your husband into cry cry cry

If truly you've never dished out for for your husband, NOT EVEN ONCE, then something is truly and really wrong SOMEWHERE.

You must be a very prideful woman, and your husband is just a man who doesn't know any better...

Misleading Topic: Never marry a woman who is financially and academically ahead of you.

My Questions:
(1 ) Why are your daughters in SCHOOL?

(2) Are YOU advising men not to MARRY your daughters because they are Educated and Rich?

(3) Are YOU advising your SON to MARRY an ILLITERATE from the village?

Please, I need answers.

I could say the opposite. Find the person that has what you want . Simple!
The Western mentality is detrimental to africam women and is ruining lots of relationships!


actually it's the opposite

the ego of the African man is KILLING relationships

If you want a traditional relationship as it was in the past
it has to be traditional in EVERY SENSE
now ask how many men want that today, you will not find many...

Adjustments need to be made as time change
But whatever you do

don't marry a mannerless woman

This thread get as it be because my current fiancce and wife to be is ahead of me in education and also more financially buoyant than me as her Aunty is in the USA and spoil her with money. Issues like this do happen coz any time we have argument and I said is it because she's financial OK than me that makes her think she can disrespect me as her man, this do get her more mad at me.

This has nothing to do with money or eduxation. It's all about character.

So many women have made so many men to be what they are today. It's all about character.

That's when both are in marriage because of pressure..... Pressure arising from poverty on the side of the man.... Pressure on the side of the woman to be a Mrs..

Sometimes people change over time no matter how they started esp when condition change. When u grow up u will understand.

From what you posted, he wanted her to serve him his food in the presence of a stranger (you). And while she declined, he tried forcing her. (Bear in mind she did the cooking with her own money).

From this it clearly depicts —

1. He felt entitled to her caring and wasn't appreciative.
2. He had no respect for her by trying to emasculate.

Note that I am not saying she isn't disrespectful.
But her husband gave her a reason to disrespect him.

And it's not because of financial status but his behavior.

wat r u saying DAT d man should dish food for himself even in d presence of his friend

Bla bla bla. It's almost the same for men who marry women they're financially and educationally better than. They still brag and more often than not, talk to the woman anyhow. Some will even say 'all what I've done for you can your father do it for you?". While some will even use it as an excuse to cheat profusely. So don't make this a woman's thing alone.

This has nothing to do with finance or academic. It has everything to do with the attitude and the love they claim they had. There are people in the same scenerio who are happily married. So your generalization is wrong.

There is nothing wrong in a wife calling her husband by name. It only depends on the attitude and manner.

There is also nothing wrong in a man dishing his food himself and even dishing for his wife. It is all about understanding and love.

Loving someone isn't all about money and academics afterall there are illiterates who are madly in love and there are poor people in love also. Although money makes it better. The main thing about love is understanding and sacrifice.

My opinion.
do folks still got this kinda mentality in this age...as in to go dish food na work...is the wife a slave...so if you marry a woman you are richer than and later the woman kon get money pass you one will leave the woman...like you said understanding matters a lot...stories like this de tire me to comment on...

It's not about the class or level, it's the character of the woman. A woman with the same character, below her husband in education and status will still belittle her husband.

My neigbor got married to a woman that is financially and academically ahead of him yes they started with love at initial stage she did everything possible to make sure the man suceed i mean everything she sacrify evrytn kudos to her, but the problem now is how the woman talks to the husband with no atom of respect she goes around telling people what she has done for the man to the extent her friends no longer see the man as anything .. The one that pains me was the day she told the man to go and dish out food for himself even in my presence, wen the man try to force her my dear come see insult from how she feed him to how she made him who he is,just because the man ask her to go and bring his food even dou the man is working now but stil the woman stil look down on him.. The worst she stil call the man by his name . The man is talking about bringing another woman that wil respect him as The man of the house.. This is a big lesson without money i dnt think you can control a nigerian woman .

At times we are to quick to react to family issues, some persons will not read the post but just try to be the first to make a comment.
At times we men we have too much pride and ego and we can't really see ourselves and the many wrongs we do to our wives. (Also the flip side for the women)

Most men once they notice that the wife is doing better than them academically and financially they start reacting and creating problems instead of cultivating the wife to be more productive they try to reduce her to their level. I strongly believe that they have low self-esteem and see themselves to be inferior.

Both of them married themselves on the ground of compatibility so whatever dies was never mixed equally, let the two love be one non slacks non dies.

Both of them should look at themselves inwardly and settle their differences let us not be too quick to peg it on finance and education. My opinion
