Bro just try to improve your finances. Most women will never give you their best if you fall off in life. That's women for you. We men have our war stories, but save that for another day. At this point of your life, do not try to win the heart of your wife, do not even expect love/sex from her, just try hard to hustle for more for yourself and your kids. May God guide you.

I just lost my job like 2 months ago. I use my car to do can work. My wife works as well. And we have 2 children.

I want you to tell me the truth am I doing bad or good?

I pay all the bills at home, I still give out 15k every week for food.

But my wife still complain. I don't know what she use her salary to do. All I know is that she use to wear new cloth every Sunday and new shoes. And buys cloth for the children once in a while.

Pls tell me if am doing bad.

you are not doing bad!
Just as some people have said, you need to be very careful with the type of advice you read here as it can drastically change who you are towards your family.
Some people here only experienced courtship which they will use to advice you and courtship is not marriage. Courtship is far more sweeter and romantic than marriage
When you were courting your wife, there was nobody in this world that will tell you that she was not the best woman in the world smiley

The fault is yours.

As a husband, you're the one responsible for the family. Chikena. You may not like this statement.

It's your responsibility to plan how to take care of your home. Your wife is your helper. The person wey dey help person carry him load, no be the owner of the load.

Meanwhile, not all wives are helpers because they're not told that they are by whoever, parents or priests in church.

You may think I'm supporting irresponsible wives, no! If a wife is a helper and your own isn't helping you, keep doing your duty as husband and report the matter to the person the instituted marriage. He will soon bring sense into the brain of the woman you call your wife.

However, many will call my advice old school.

You're not compelled to do more than your capacity for your home except you want to steal.

Sit down with her and tell her what you can afford to do for her and the children. If she's not satisfied, show her the door.

Tell her u want to divorce first, she should carry the kids and go, just put the burden on her, even help in packing her clothes and the kids own, Since she cannot contribute in anyway, with serious reaction bro but know when to stop the joke. Also voice out ur mind as u have written here.

The candid truth is,you married a wrong wife,and the earlier for you the better.if your kids are old enough to be talked to,sit them down and let them realize the issue at hand,but if not,the earlier for you the better.however,your childrens upkeep must be paramount to you.

She spending on you doesnot make you broke, but it gives you an insight of if she would be there for you in times of calamity. Lots of men lose there Job while been married, if you lose your Job, how would you cope with this kind of wife? As a man, give room for (You can take care of your home withoit your wife support, because you got a good job) ( Make provision for you dont have a job or you die along the process, how will your family survive in both senerious) My wife ready to spend all her money on our children and myself and she can go hungry without much complains. i was 40 Years of Age this June, my wife celebrate my birthday for me, i nor even spend 1Kobo and she nor dey work. Because of this attribute all our tenants pays all rent to her. Guys all this little things you over look when dating, e dey give headache for marriage ohh.

How many things are you even saying oga?
only you said he shouldn't complain
only said report the wife
only you said discuss with her
did anyone force you to comment?

it's obvious you're bereft of ideas, let's all learn to be empathetic in our posts and advise to people here..

My brother, you are really doing well for yourself and your family, bravo, but at times we still need to question and define our relationship with spouses and children, aside from putting food on the table.

So, try your best to engage in a discussion with your wife on this, to know her mind set.

The bills you pay is it all the bills or does your wife contribute as well? By bills do you mean school fees and all associated cost, light, waste , gas , fuel etc.?
If truthfully you pay all the bills then you arr really trying . You efforts may not be the best but you are good to go.
Also, if your wife contributes to these bills then you need to start praising her and just talk it over with her if she can help contribute more cutting cost off the unnecessary new clothes weekly.
Having said this, you and all the male folks must understand the DNA of creation that a woman was not created by God to be sole providers in families but help meet. Once a man wants to turn a woman to a major provider it is natural/spiritual that her nature will resist it. She may bear for some time but not all the time.
Please discuss with her in a peaceful loving atmosphere (but before you do please pray to God to touch her heart witb mercy and understanding) to please assist with some bills at least that may curb the complain.

Man money na family money but woman money na her personal money

If you marry an inconsiderate, unreasonable and selfish wife, sorry for you.

A stingy girlfriend will make a stingy wife but unfortunately ,most men trivialize that aspect during courtship/ dating.


Men done suffer for eve hand

Monkey dey work baboon dey chop

The worst is that no matter how much a man struggled to train his children in school, they will grow to take care of their mother more than father.

Men make una wake up

No need for plenty children all in the name of " children na blessing "

Why do most " mothers" pitch their children against their father in old age when the man is retired and tired.

Widows everywhere,
Men

No one is interested in MEN's affairs

Fathers are not duly appreciated in the society,

U will not realizes the enormity of Fathers love and sacrifices until you become one.

Thumbs up to all Fathers all Fathers .

Third Sunday in June is world Fathers day,
Last Sunday, how many Fathers did u see being posted and appreciated across social media as it would be done to mothers?

As if we live in a fatherless society

Call them bastard, they will fight u yet, they behave as fatherless creatures.
