He said he wanted a 60 k apartment that he could afford, she is the one that pushed for 100k. Why are they not sharing the expense? He brings 60k and she brings 40k? Rushna27: 1 Like |

cooooooks:The average Nigerian man wants to be seen and respected as the head of the family. And as such, the BULK of the financial load rests on his shoulders. Tell them "gender equality" they get offended. Let them bear the bulk of the weight, afterall na head them be. 1 Like |

It is easy to say this but this is not the reality. Across socioeconomic 'classes' and since women have been working, financial responsibility has been shared. Chii59: |

cooooooks: Look beyond the transaction aspect. The analogy is meant to showcase the reasoning method of the op, not compare a car to a wife. And in general, it's not that far off. Marriage is essentially a business transaction involving mutual exchange of services; even if we all do like to pretend that it is carried out for the sake of higher purposes like 'love'. |

cooooooks:I don't believe financial responsibility should be shared equally in a patriarchal family. Wanna be the Lord and master? Bear the weight. His money belongs to the family, my money belongs to me. But then as you said, it's not the reality. Las Las, the woman becomes the sacrificial lamb, the glue that holds the house together. 1 Like |

Thankfully, people can choose how their relationships and marriages will be. Those who want to be Lord and master (even though they are easily controlled by their wives), should expect Lord and master treatment. Those of us that want equitable partnerships expect equitable treatment. Chii59: |

cooooooks:The boy really acted like one. Few months into your marriage, you're already talking about separation? Which woman won't take it to heart? Reminds me of another boy who told his wife, she wasn't his first choice, just that the woman he wanted didn't want him. I remember that post. Silly. Immature. Juvenile. Boys. 1 Like |

I recently met a Mama's boy at 32. I was shocked. This guy talks to his mother more than his (now ex) girlfriend. The girl had to go after 6 months. The guy was very good in most ways except this Mama's boy thing plus a few other boyish traits. Chii59: 2 Likes |

cooooooks:The mistake we Africans make is that we think age is a measure of maturity. A 42 year old can still be a boy, in terms of maturity. Still playing games, still undecided, still tied to his mother's skirt. I've met a couple of boys like that mid to late 30s. 1 Like |

Chii59: Be fair to the man! He does sound humble to me... He tried to cut his coat but lady Macbeth is pushing him. What do you mean, he wants to be respected as the head of the family? Not from what he has written... He will happily share the burden with his wife but she is the one insisting on the husband being indebted to. You came with preconceived notions and answer to the issue here... |

malcom1X: I guess you must be a family man. one Heineken you . Rule number 1 as a family man of this generation. NEVER burrow money from your wife. If you do so, you are in soup. I remembered when l used to burrow, l was surprised when she brought a book of debt. Since then l manage the resources that is available, if she want to assist good, if not, we manage what we have. |

Though ua married to her.. but her one leg is in the marriage while the other is outside... She is just looking for slight chance to bring the other leg to the other leg... Either she leaves u completely or she enters the marriage completely. Now u will have to be a man in this marriage... Don't abuse her anymore and control ur temper wen ua vexed.. |

DEmejioba1 You did right to get married but you will drag yourself down if you continue to listen to the advice and desire of your wife. Follow your heart and financial capabilities and don't borrow from your wife over anything. Women are selfish. I listen to my sisters and do what they want, I became homeless and vow never to listen to any woman again. |
