Haven graduated and served in a good establishment, I was very lucky to secure a good job in one of new generation banks. Thank God for my dedication during my Uni and making a good grade.Well, did not mean to bore you with my story but to highlight the joy of wanting to travel to East during December period to spend my Xmas and unite with my significant others and friends after two years.Life can be very beautiful, if know what I mean.


I was catching my fun until I paid my uncle a visit; he was not at home at moment , I only met the wife. She was very sick for 3 months but had recovered fully for about six months before my visit. She was very happy seeing me and to show how happy she was, she almost told me everything that has been happening to her since I visited her last. To cut the long story short, she ended the story by complaining what my uncle has been doing to her recently. That he has refused to be footing the feeding expenses talk more of other responsibilities.


As she was complaining bitterly, low and behold , the accused just walked in. We exchanged pleasantries and he just walked into his room to change his clothes. After sometime, he joined us in the living room. I was about confirming from him the allegation leveled against him by his wife before he opened up.


And this is what he said :"Otuabaroku, I know my wife must be complaining how I failed to carry out my responsibility these days, has she told you the root cause of that? Well, if she has not told you, the cause of it is that she has starved me for sex for 2 months before she took ill and this is the sixth month after her recovery, she is still starving me of sex. This is the main cause of my sudden change of attitude".




Hm, as he released the bombshell, I was dumb folded and totally blank. This could be because I least expected that from him,as this is a man who has just celebrated his 67Th birthday and the wife is 52 yrs old. He is well respected elder in the church.I was wondering , so this man still the wire? Another thing that was going in my mind was should I tell my uncle, he has to be patient with the wife and find out why she changed or should I tell her to give him what he wanted for peace to reign, all these were going in my mind before I received an urgent call from pupsy. I was like thank God, at least let me have some time to consider how to mediate in this issue.

If you were in my shoes, what will be your advice for this old couple?

i will stay outta their business. At 62 he should have learned by now that he can talk to his wife and not his little nephew so stay out of it and get out of that house quick before they get you for all the money you have in your wallet

@omega25red, thanks man. In terms of leaving them alone with their problem, don't you think it will be inaction in my own part, haven trusted me that much to bare it all to me.
