And what is wrong if she quits the marriage?

Why are you bothered? What ideas are you looking for?

A contract has been breached and it’s only right you terminate it.


The Òyìnbó that convinced us cheating is bad, don't they cheat? They cheat, they divorce and divorce and when they are tired they turn to gay. Rain fall everywhere.
Re: My Sister Wants To Quit Her Young Marriage. by Exceed15: 4:32pm On Aug 24, 2021
The deed had been done and hence a legal ground to file for divorce.The big question is does she still love her husband? Does she still believe in the marriage?

If her answer is NO, kindly allow her make her decision. Her happiness is paramount.

And lastly be strong for her at this phase of her life .

Good morning fellow nairalanders, I hope your day is going well though mine didn't start so well. I am a nairalander but I have to open this account for this. I have an issue bothering me, I will try to keep my story as brief as possible.

I am a guy from a humble background. My parents had only two children, myself and my younger sister who is now married with two kids. She had her last baby boy some time early this month. Her marriage with this guy ( my brother inlaw) has been one I considered relatively peaceful. That is from my own perspective knowing that there's no marriage without one or two misunderstanding here or there at some point.

Well, she found out that her husband got another girl pregnant who gave birth to a baby girl. My sister found out after she gave birth to her first son. Her husband was the one that confessed to her that he has another child outside their marriage. They settled the issue and moved on he promised he would end the relationship he had with the baby mama.

Last year, during the Covid19 period, my sister found out that he was still seeing his baby mama after she saw their chats. She confronted him and he denied having anything to do with the baby mama except for sending money for his daughter's upkeep once in a while. It was a big issue which was brought to the attention the two families. They found a way to settle after a lot pleading and talking to the two of them.

To cut the long story short, she sent me screenshots that proves that he is still seeing the baby mama. In one of the screenshot he wants to see her in their normal place and the girl agreed but doesn't want them have sex on this particular occasion. My sister has bad temperament and it is not easy to calm her down when triggered. She's threatening to quit the marriage and I fear she may do something wrong this time around . She is yet to confront her husband because I managed to convince her to keep it on hold till she calms down.

Note : My Dad is late and my younger sister is a house wife hence solely dependent on her husband. Please ignore my grammatical errors. I am putting this out here because I have ran out of ideas.

First and most importantly she should get professional help. She should have done this immediately she found out about the baby and baby mama. Send a message to pastor Kingsley Okonkwo or praise fowowe.

Your sister needs to face her new reality, telling her husband to stop seeing the baby mama is asking him to cut ties with his child, that child ties the whole family together, herself inclusive.

She need to see the baby mama like cocaine or heroin and here husband the addict, person don't just quit drugs they have to go through rehabilitation and therapy to quit, that's what her husband needs. He will cry and repent this minute and the next minute he runs to his baby mama because he is hooked.

This situation is really sad. I feel even more sad for the kids.

You claim to be pro family but you need to understand something. You may have heard of physical abuse but there's something even worse than that -- emotional abuse. The wounds are not visible but they are there and they are deeply damaging

Your sister has only one life to live. Do you want her to keep being disrespected and mistreated for life just to hold a family? Do you want her son to learn his father's ways and do the same to his own wife when he grows up?

Please, stop thinking about what you want and think about what your sister wants. It's her life. If she wants to leave, let her leave but try to make sure that she can take care of herself financially first

Marriage is meant for couples with genuine love and mutual respect for each other.

There's a difference between a healthy functional family and a dysfunctional family. The one your sister has is dysfunctional and it will scar her children psychologically for life


What is your recommendation?

She should leave?

How about finance?

The husband will send money to her

Owoooo shocked


See idiotic advice coming from guys grin


Op that man na bad guy and he wanted polygamy and I see him getting more wives

What happened to condoms and pills after sex .

Any ladies who want respect will leave that marriage or take a break ( let the idiot man think for a while or some months, even if the baby mama move in , no man will respect such a woman, they will consider her cheap and more ) the hi goat will still look for another lady to impregnate even if the baba mama move in .


Your needs to leave, since she’s a hot temper lady before it’s too late . She might even stab him in his sleep.

But why is your sister always checking her husbands phone??

you see the thing is, CHECKING YOUR PARTNERS PHONE IS LIKE PUTTING YOUR FINGER IN THE ANUS - IF YOU DON'T FIND SHIT, YOU WILL FIND MESS OR BOTH - AND YOU WILL NOT LIKE EITHER OF IT!

so for your peace of mind, AVOID CHECKING YOUR PARTNERS PHONES!

Your sister opened the door to breaking her home by checking her hubby's phone!

Unfortunately, the guy now has skittering child from another woman.... he can't abandon the child.... he must take responsibility for the child, and probably the mother.... your sister should brace for the worst, the guy may eventually marry the girl and bring her home.... she should try get something doing or you support her as the next few months may be turbulent for her.

As I said, it's up to her. She should decide whether to stay or leave. She knows what's best for her

As for finance, her husband is very irresponsible. She shouldn't depend on him. She's better off getting a job or starting a business

Even if it rains everywhere, she must be tired of being beaten by it. You want her to continue until she contact a deadly disease? oga stand by your sister and help her end the marriage before she dies of it. If the man respects your family enough, he wouldn’t do that to her so get her off the marriage my friend angry angry

She is an Adult and she can make her own decision... But advise her not to be in a haste to leave her marriage... she should think it through and draw a final conclusion either to stay and work out a fine line between both of them or go...

Your sister's husband and the other woman have something in common which is the baby girl...Your sister can throw all the tantrum she wanted from Jerusalem to Jericho it will not change anything... that man can deny all he wanted that he will have nothing to do with the other woman for those that cares to listen... the reality is, that baby girl has come to stay... and will always connect them both....The earlier that sinks into her, the better for her.

The girl na amateur.. Guy man don marry his ex with idea the small girl dey there dey fume. Her mind dey tell her say if she divorce the guy, her former chykers will come back. Reality go soon set in with her. She either accepts the fact that she now has a co wife or divorce with all her mind, leave the children for the man and turn feminist completely without looking back.

1. WHATEVER YOU DO IN THIS LIFE..
NEVER DEPEND ON A MAN FOR SURVIVAL!!! UNLESS YOU ARE A SALAFIYAH.
2. CHECKING HER HUSBAND'S PHONE WOULD ONLY BRING MORE SADNESS TO HER. LEAVE HIM ALONE AND FOCUS ON GETTING HIS ATTENTION..THE POOR HUSBAND JUST WANT ACTION WITH THE EX.. THAT'S ALL.. NOTHING SERIOUS.. WITH THIS INCESSANT ARGUMENT, SHE WILL MAKE HIM MAKE SOMETHING SERIOUS FROM THE EX
3. QUITTING MARRIAGE IS VERY EASY.. MOVING ON IS THE KOKO.. who wan marry after 1? Even if she's independent?

She needs to think logically in other to work out her marital problems effectively. Since she forgave him when she found out that he had a baby outside of the marriage, I think it is only practical that she accepts that he is no longer the ideal man she once married, and that trust will no longer be a factor in play.

More so, she only just gave birth. If she has post partum depression which I suspect, then there are many other variables besides the husband's wandering appendage that may make her act this way. Why not councel her to first focus on her new born baby? After several months, she can reevaluate her relationship with her husband. I bet you that by then she may be less inclined to leave her marital home.

Really don't know what to say in this situation

This is a hard situation, but if she quits now then what! It’s raining everywhere. It’s a pity your dad is late if not he would have been in the best position to caution your sis hubby. Well if the man is really taking care of her and the kids she should stay in the marriage except if he’s beating her or maltreating her on top the cheating saga. She’s a housewife without any means of survival, that means she’s solely dependent on the hubby. If you support her to leave the marriage, then find her something doing, establish her in a business so she can take proper care of herself and her children, cos if you start taking care of her now and tomorrow you have your own family, can you keep up? These are the things that you should consider

You are already doing fine by trying to calm her down,keep trying to keep her calm as that is the only way she can hear her heart speak and not follow emotions.

My brother, both the “journey” and the “destination” are important but nothing is more important than your “company”,be careful who & what you listen to on this platform.
Marriage is between husband, wife and their creator..any suggestion against the design of the institution is the wisdom of men and not of God.Your in-law has messed up big time but it is between both of them to resolve.

I have learnt that people draw curses to themselves by interfering in matters that is not theirs.we don’t know God’s plan for this family so you can’t but stay pro family while calming her down.

Never make a permanent decision about a temporary situation!

May the God of peace send peace to your family, especially your sis and may your brother-in-law receive clarity and wisdom to help him grow beyond these rubbish!!

Lastly,if you love your sister, continue to calm her down,comfort her,pamper her and afterwards get on your knees for her sake and pray!! The devil is very powerful.

You have mentioned that she have temperament which sill sometimes trigger a lot of things.
I have discovered that people who get angry too often say things they probably cant do and when you beg them they feel big.

Does she have the money to take care of her kids if she decides to end the marriage?
Does the husband have enough money to send to her if she quits?
What was the reason behind getting the lady outside pregnant? Because it could be that she used her mouth to push her husband out with her anger.

If I'm in your shoes, I'll tell her to quit. to reset her brain.

She shoild try and stay in the marriage, no where is peaceful, it has happened and the fact that the husband is trying to keep this ( still talking to the baby mama) means he still have some feelings for her. The husband can't let go of the baby mama, she had a child for him already. As long as the husband keeps doing his responsibility and not abusive to her, she should stay or she won't like herself after leaving
