Long Distance Marriage: How Do You Cope Married Couples In Similiar Situation by Okosin(m): 9:21pm On Feb 25, 2023
I am an engineer working in Port Harcourt while my wife is a public health worker working in Abuja. May 2023 will make us two years in marriage. We are expecting out First child soonest.
Sometimes i just feel frustrated at the whole thing but then We still have to make ends meet. We have applied for jobs in each others location all to no avail. I am becoming tired of the whole situation especially with the coming of our child. I need meaningful advice on what to do.p

Its the sweetest type of relationship if u both can navigate it well and build discipline... sex doesnt get boring easily and u miss each other which will make cherish every moment when u see....
....sadly it can also be an adultery infested relationship with a couple of doses of paternity fraud if u are not sexualy disciplined

You're still v.young in the lifelong learning institution.

For you, How much do you love n respect your wife?

Cos, ask yourself, if the opportunity comes for flirting, partying/clubbing, your hot ex, direct request for sex from a v.hot lady in your private apartment far away from home, what's gonna happen?

For her, How much do you know and trust your wife?

Cos, ask yourself, if the opportunity comes for flirting, girls chat, her ex, indirect request for sex comes from a hot guy or rich client in her workplace, what's gonna happen?

But seeing everyday becomes an eyesore.
You could however be 1 of the 100,000 wives who wouldn't. But how bout him - is he among the 1 or the 100,000?

In the first 2-4weeks of marriage, many love to have their partners around them always (honeymoon mode activated)

First 6months, many want to have their partners around the house but love to add little spices by creating moments that'll mk them be wanted (trying to conceive mode activated)

First 2yrs, most would prefer going through normal day to day activities without seeing each other till evening (family mode activated)

First 10yrs, most would prefer not seeing each other for at least 2days or more so as to rekindle the quest to be loved/wanted by their partners..


The reality remains: seeing everyday become an eyesore

I don’t agree with you… not like you’re both glued at home or something, you’d both go to work and back I think that’s enough space instead of not seeing each other a whole week or months… except you don’t really love each other… my husband and I don’t get tired of seeing each other…

As long as you update my account with money, I ll cope. Who needs to see face to face when seeing your man too much ll lead to monitoring. You can be hustling for our future in Lagos or Aba while I chill in Abuja.
I ll wait for your love. Just do the needful stated above.

Choi, it has not been easy, but money must be made genuinely....

I work in Lagos and live in one of my family house on the island, while wify works in abeokuta, so I go home every weekend or sometimes twice a week...

She originally don't like Lagos, because the over population and noise from every angle....

I must say we are used to it, because when we courted for like 17years before we got married, it was also a long distance.....
