I'm just going to be honest with you, there is a high chance you will end up divorced if you are the lazy type. What we call work in Nigeria is the reason the country is not working. If you go 3 months without bringing in money while your wife, is working, you are going to regret the day you left Nigeria. Women are not made to take care of men.By the time your wife is working, trying to clean house and take care of the children in between, you will become her enemy. She will then realize you are not needed and that her life is much better with only the kids. Work and bring money for bills at all costs. Talk to your friends about childcare that will help your wife. Also, be thinking of a course that you can take that will make money in the UK. I wish you the very best and pray your marriage makes it. 22 Likes |

xalex77c: U never read thousands of men leaving happily with their wife abroad? Several of people I know who migrated to UK & USA are leaving happily with their spouses there. Some 10yrs ,while the least is 4 yrs. Have u ever asked urself if u re a good husband ( or u would be a good husband)? Pls do it now and be fair enough in ur judgement. 11 Likes 1 Share |

Jondelng:I wish the simp would listen to you but I'm sure he wouldn't. How can a sane man leave his federal job and farming business to go and become stay at home husband in the UK for a vaginarian when we know how they turn to monsters as soon as they leave this country. Let him go, I will be here to read his thread when his wife turns him to a fulltime houseboy. 2 Likes |

Ficient:A family friend whose wife is also a nurse moved to the UK. There has been no issues. The man takes care of the kids when she is at work. He is looking for a job but there's no pressure whatsoever from his wife. They've both been having each other's back from way back. It's just a phase. If you have married a good woman, you have nothing to fear. Join her, take care of the kids while you search for job opportunities. It may entail doing some short time courses to fit into the job market. Be determined that you will make it in the UK. Have a very positive mindset. 9 Likes |

Hi. I'll suggest that you take a caregiver certification and get certified before leaving or shortly after your arrival. With that, you can increase your chances of landing a job. 1 Like |

SavageResponse: you are 100% right.By another person I mean his trusted relations or better still monitor it from wherever he is by employing someone and also sending a relative to check out his business for him once a while because a business not controlled directly by the owner suffers. looses if not taken care of.

Re: Quiting My Job To Join My Wife Abroad by Anosby: 12:17pm On Dec 21, 2021 |
it will be hard for you in the beginning o. you will likely find yourself doing jobs you will never even consider in Nigeria. I will advise you request study leave without pay, so you have the window to return to your job after 1 year. Ficient: 1 Like |

I would advice you to stay back sir, at least for a while. Allow you wife and kids move first before you do so. You currently have a paying job that is secure and you equally have a side business. I see no reason why you are eager to leave, you can visit them time to time. Or You can allow them to go and when they are settled, you can go join them when you have come up with what you want to do there, cause I bet you don't want to be a sit-at-home husband over. 1 Like |

If your wife is good then you don't have much problem. You need to resign from your workplace because your wife can't take care of the children alone in the UK. Let her go first and 3 months later you can go ahead and join her with the children in the UK. Don't let anybody discourage you about moving to the UK. I have been in your shoes before and have no regret at all. 5 Likes |

Just go already. You'll do better over there. Don't entertain negative thought, so it won't come to reality. When you get there, put as much effort as possible to remain the major provider. Everything will work out for your good. Best wishes, from me to you and your family. 2 Likes |

Ficient: OP: Abroad is not Nigeria and I am sure you know your wife very well. You will still be the one bringing in money to the home for most things. I hope you strategize well because women even the best of them when she is the one bringing more money over a long time to sustain the home can start behaving somehow. By strategizing I mean, what skills you have so far and what you intend to do when you get there, and plans to up yourself. The government favors women more and when Nigerian women see it, they exploit it to the detriment of their home except for the ones that really loved the husband. I wish you the very best. Please don't cut links with home, e get why. |
