What happened to the sacred institution called marriage shocked ?, Lord help us,

No one is perfect
The beginning of healing is her acknowledgement that she has messed up

@ poster, am going to be very frank with you. The point yot missed it was when you lost intrest in ur husband. Truth b told he noticed it and he also startf losing intrest in you. Marriage is not a bed of roses it com with its thongs that we have to cope with. Since you want ur mariage back, u must be ready to fight 4 it and it starts with breakn away 4rm the guy u re sleeping with. dont let him use his fake emotions to ruin you. Break away totally from him then you 2 need to talk. I feel u you and ur husband started on the wrong note. Talk it out, everything become vulnerable with each other and confess bt let him know itz over. If u think itz beta to keep the affair secret you should know dat every hidden sin wil b out in the public and am sure you know there is a God up there watching you. You must b ready to make your mariage work. A woman has the ability to build and destroy her home. You must rebuild the trust btw u bt 1st confes. Your husband is ready, i want you to be ready too and do everything prayerfuly The Lord wil help you.

I can imagine the fake 'righteousness' with which you would have been barking at your husband "you mean you've been cheating on me, you're such a dog!" and if it were in Europe or America, you would have started talking to a divorce lawyer about how to grab half of his net worth!

Look, I despise you people more and more everyday. More often than not, it is the man who gets caught and it is he who gets to apologize to a woman whose dirty exploits he knows nothing about. And the filthy woman would have the nerve to act all righteous and feign the victim - 'faithful' wife whose husband has betrayed. I've seen and heard FAR too many cases of this; that's why to my mind, ya'll are guilty until proven innocent.

Concerning your situation, I doubt that you would be honourable enough to do the RIGHT thing: Confess your own harlotry to him too, and thereafter you guys can take an appropriate decision together. However, if I could talk to the hapless man who calls you wife, I'd tell him in very clear terms to kick you out of his house/life right away. The fickleness of most of you women never cease to amaze me. You'd force a man to marry you, and then a few years down the line you'd open your confused mouth to say poo like: "along the line I lost interest in him"; "I would cringe if he touches me". Gosh, some (or most) husbands do have em'.

if he was bold and courageous enough to confess and seek apology from you, why feel inferior? go ahead and do same thing, especially if you want peace of mind, which i can assure you money can't buy. the longer you take and time passes, the worse you are making conditions,

Your marriage is 4 years old; but you had a child - 7 years old. OK, so you were "forced" to marry because of the child. No wonder. You were not ready for marriage (and I doubt that you are marriage material).

@IyaBasira,

I think it is unfair to take a stand without hearing the other side of the story, and we may never. Infidelity in marriage is a serious issue, and I dont believe in concealing these things. It has happend and both parties must face up to the consequence. That is the only way in my opinion that the root cause can be known at healing can begin

I dont care about the other side of the story. I'm not going to be perfect and you are not going to be perfect, but we bloody took vows to forsake all others.

As far as i am concerned, there is only one reason why a man should cheat on me. And that reason is if i have cheated on him first.

If I did no such thing, then he has no excuse. At least the poster took her business elsewhere. He slept with a family FRIEND.

The reason why I said he is a jerk is because he probably cannot say that he never slept with anyone while he was single. And yet he has the nerve to throw it in her face that she has slept with other men. Abeeeegi I no like dat kain thing. Nigerian man and their wretched double standards.
If he was a virgin when he met her, then yes I can understand his insecurity. But if not then please he needs to get over himself.

Also, I don't know if you read my post well because I never said she should conceal it. I said I wouldn't bother tying to make that relationship work, and even if I did, I would tell him the truth. That was what i was trying to say.

~Minx~:

@ Iyabasira,

I hear what you are saying about the truth but i don't have any guarantee that he will accept it and forgive me, what if he doesn't? What then?

Yes I was wrong I shouldn't have been involved with the other guy at all but it just happened, I didn't plan for it to happen and I sincerely regret it but I don't think telling him is going to make things any easier.



Thats why I said u and I are different. grin I prefer to cut my losses and move on. But then I am single and this is obviously a marriage that you are talking about, which makes it a more serious issue. You obviously want to try and make things work and that's fine.  All I am asking is for you to be prepared because he may just find out one of these days. Ermmm,  sorry I need to ask. Have you figured out whose infidelity came first?

FYI I am not Nigerian, just came to this forum because I have seen really good advice here previously

About whose fidelity came first I am not sure at the moment. And my husband only apologised after I had seen raunchy messages and unexplained credit card transactions. He didn't even confess as such until I cornered him and threatened to go to the woman's house to make a scene. It's not like he just came up and opened up.

Yes we had a child outside marriage but we got married afterwards.

Then, that is a fair deal then . . . but nothing warrants killing, cos she cheats on you, you kill her, you go to jail and the man she cheated with will inherit all you have.
Better for you to just let her go, many better women out there

if you have been digging this guy for seven years why the sudden lost of interest?
matter of fact, all relationships and marriages experience what you guys went through but it takes discipline to stay committed. you will experience this again even if you get this solved now, so how will you handle it when it creeps up again? you gat to put some measure of discipline on yourself. thats the key. its up to you if you want to tell him, it solves nothing, might even complicate it IF its a guy like me. He might never trust you, just like you will never trust him again. So just keep the ball in your court and let him do all the apologizing while you do all the home mending and love building again. you tell him, you dont, its a conscience thing. And thats up to you.

IMHO, i think you dont need to confess to your hubby, confess ur sins to God, ask for His forgiveness, the grace to breakout of that relationship and a rejuvination in ur marriage. You need to get close to ur maker now,He's willing to help if only u are willing to repent.

If she needs grace to break away from the man she is sleeping with, then, she is not ready to change and work on her marriage, she has said that she is not in love with the other man that is just sex, so what is the grace she now needs

My husband is a very difficult person when it comes to infidelity issues, telling him will break any hope of reconciliation. He still has problems with the fact that I slept with other men before we got married he says when he thinks about it it disturbs him now imagine having to tell him that I slept with someone else now? It would break him.

This is exactly what I always said,  The fact that some or many guys have been digging your babe before you married changes EVERYTHING. angry angry angry angry

I have a feeling that having a bad sex life started from the fact that your husband doesn't feel too proud of what he's digging knowing that it's Tokunbo, that probably accummulated over time and made him to seek consolation elsewhere - that's not saying it's a justification for extra marital affairs

I advocate for no sex before marriage (for both man and woman),  but infidelity in marriage should be rewarded by "firing Squad".

Wow,  this are times in life I wish I can give out CTRL + Z. Not everyone is marriage material,  if there's a qualifying exam before marriage,  I wonder how many will pass. cry cry cry cry

Don't do Don't do !!! Dem no go hear. SEX!!!! kai

Yes, good to stay off sex before marriage, but whatever the person do before you know her/him is no issue . . u married the person cos you dont have a problem with what they have done before you met them, why now making it an issue?
