Re: I Am Tired Of My Marriage by janejjjjj5000: 7:09am On Apr 23, 2022
Hello everyone,

Here is my post from yesterday.

https://www.nairaland.com/7090858/tired-marriage

I thank you all for the feedback - the kind words, chastisements, and even insults. I see them all as help. For the first time in being married for14 years, I spoke about my marriage and I am glad I did. I feel very relieved.

My husband is very sorry and has decided that we will seek family therapy. He told me he does not want our home to break and that he is willing that we work together to fix this. What I like the most is that he also agrees that he needs to work on himself. I have my faults too and I am also willing to work on myself. We have found an experienced therapist that we believe will be a good fit to help us.

Even though some of the comments yesterday were harsh, I learnt from them. I had no boyfriend before marriage. My husband and I got married to each other as virgins and there is no ex boyfriend anywhere telling me anything. I am not a cheat. We have been born-again from our youth. I am not a promiscuous person. I was just feeling down yesterday and decided to pour our my heart. I was tired of bottling up my emotions because I have the habit of not discussing my home. I got tired and was feeling very confused yesterday but I am much better now. Still, I don't regret putting up that post. God used everybody who commented to point me in the right direction.

I am grateful to those who suggested therapy. I was not thinking in that direction at all but you gave me the idea. I thank everybody who got involved. May God bless you all.

Amen.

No believe your pastor that he and his wife don’t argue or fight. Everybody argues and has disagreement. If you don’t experience that and resolve your issues then you are not growing in that marriage. I don’t mean physical or abusive fights o!! Please go to church and focus on worshipping God. Every other aspect of your life has professionals who can handle it. Some of these Pastors abuse their wives seriously, batter them into silence thinking the women will be too ashamed to expose them. So don’t take their words too seriously, work with the personalities in your marriage and try to figure out what works for you!

Everyone will advice you based on their own character and values when the person you are married to is completely different and requires a different approach. That is why you can not progress getting advise from anyone. It has to be a professional. Two cannot walk together if they do not agree, remember?

And be sure to seek Professional marriage counselors and therapists, not church magicians abeg. undecided

If your husband requires Anger management therapy, Try to Make sure he follows through with it in addition to marriage counseling of course. undecided

You both don't have anything doing outside family and kids this is your core challenge.

Start filling your lives with :

1. Short vacations. Even if it's just a Saturday, find a place he and the kids or you and the kids would go and spend the entire day. Not an expensive vacation. Even if it's going for a Saturday bible class with the family far away from the usual surroundings you share



2. Get involved in family time. Like make moyin moyin and everyone must be involved including dad


Develop activities that will create the atmosphere for bonding and expression

Stop staying at home morning till night doing nothing. That's what's creating the crises. If you're all engaged and distracted the same time, they won't be time to fight and argue

We want to see christian homes thrive and blossom amidst all the news we hear everyday. I said something concerning the previous post and it's good you didn't take any advise to heart despite how hurtful it might be. Alot of people will tell you the truth in the most hurtful manner, but it's still the truth. I know cheating and domestic violence seems to be the pioneer of endured and broken marriages and yours is void of that. So work on it. Wish you the best

Ify Belgium, what are you saying? grin

It is not about the frequency of his angry outbursts, but the amount of damage caused when those outbursts occur, that bothered her.

A male friend used to break expensive home appliances in the heat of the moment, only to start buying new ones to replace damaged ones. Until he decided to borrow sense one day, now he drives off and returns when he has cooled off.

Most times it's the words uttered in such moments we have problems with. She wasn't done, as in completely checking out, just extremely weary and needed to vent. Her update made me smile, so it is all good now.

Osinachi had a choice and she made it. We always have a choice in this life.

Klass, you still remember our Ify Belgium project cheesy

I like your friend a lot.. he contributed to the growth of the Nigerian GDP grin

I'm actually happy that OP has come to her right senses.. I wish there is something like marriage swap... Like 2 months swap for couples who were a bit tired about their marriages... They swap with other couples who were in the same boat.. rules devoid of tribes, cultural background etc Just to see how greener some marriages were on the other side cool

Don’t believe your pastor coming to the alter that him and his wife have never had misunderstandings, neither papa or any of them, you don’t stay with them, I am also a believer(winner’s Chapel) let me not go there focus on your marriage , they will never tell you the truth about what goes on in their home.

They will only preach to us what will want to hear , build your home, your husband is every woman’s dream man.

Even me with not come out and be telling the congregations my wife and I done have issues in our marriage , it will a bad omen to myself as a pastor.

So you believed papa and mama had never quarrel for all the years they have married?

With the money and people coming around them?

Even mama and Bishop Abioye’s wife don’t tag along let me tell you this……

I will stop here……..

I am happy for you

I think you got married too early and with no experience, and you are feeling trapped. What you narrated is not even enough to get someone depressed so your problem lies deeper than your husband’s behavior.

Trust me, I know the feeling. Therapy is good, but the feeling will pass. Just hang in there and find other things to put your attention and focus.
