I think some of them just love having back and forth with ladies. They would create an agenda and want you to spend time arguing with them. I refuse biko. grin grin

Just like someone said he's holding Mohbad 's wife accountable by spitting rubbish and wants me to argue.

I don't know how to argue how to hold a woman who had a child for her husband accountable.

He was already accusing her of opening her legs for a crack head as if he knows the whole truth of the matter.

It can never work in reality, but it is good people enforce this movement. People usually look down on their partner's task & belittle it, therefore It is important each person has a taste of their own medicine. I was trying to explain to a lady sometime ago that your 9-5 job or business has a way of entirely affecting your emotions that it begins to affect your home, she asked if I am the only one with 9-5, why is my own different. Now she reached out to me regarding her job, It has been toxic as hell. Now that she is now experiencing it, she can testify.

In the same vein, anybody that says staying with kids is not a hard job, should be left to take care of kids for a week.

Make dem use their own eyes see am, as e be!

You are absolutely right. In fact, I have seen movie makers produce solid movies with your idea. In one of these movies, the husband was advised to start a full scale domestic duty and keep it on for a week. He nearly died after 12 hours. Nobody taught him to appreciate his wife after that experience.

@Acidosis, this is from a lady. Now who has lost touch with reality between both of is?

The OP is asking for “sex” from his “wife”. He is not asking for heaven and earth.


Lol, Pocohantas is right na..

No sane woman will willingly agree to a 50-50 formula unless you are willing to go through 9 months of pregnancy and another 12 months of exclusive breastfeeding (for at least one or two of your kids).

True, some women go through these phases, do all the cleaning and cooking and still contribute even more than 90% towards the family's expense. But I'm sure you won't wish such on your sister or any of your daughters.

Yes, another confusing issue for Nigerian couples who live or relocated in the West, without some form of support or actual 50/50 (or 30/70 more realistically), most men cannot cope with the rising cost of living. So there is usually a big disparity with how people run homes in Nigeria vs outside Nigeria. In the West, every family member must know how to do every thing, cook, clean, wash & change diapers. Both have to earn to stay above water. A lot of women who relocate are also complaining because this is a big mental shift, so depending on where you're located too.

If the woman has high libido, would you also call for the man to be fixed/repaired/drugged in order to keep her satisfied? Would you as a human being be willing to endure drug side effects and possibly bodily and mental stress or that kind in order to satisfy the libido of the woman you love? undecided

Good evening fellow NL members,
My story may be long but pls endeavor to read to the end so that you can make proper suggestions or advice.

I have been married for more than 10yrs now with beautiful kids, my marriage is one that many Young guy will wish to have, but along the the line I don't know what happened things begin to nose dive. In the last 6yrs I discovered that I struggle to make love to my wife, she will either tell you ohh, she is tire or she don't like sex much..this I have endured for all this years with no cheating.
Her qualities are
She can cook
She can keep the house clean
She can manage resources
And she is accommodating to my people
In all this years I have never cheated on her, proudly saying it coz my dad warned me of cheating on my wife rather I should divorce her and go for another wife.

My qualities are
I work and earn like about 700k net a month.
I give feeding allowance and personal total of 100k a month while I invest the rest on a project which she is aware of.
I don't drink or smoke
I don't keep late night
and I am the best friend to her and my kids.
Honestly having talk to her for over 5yrs on this issues of love making and she refused to change, then I have decided to yield to my dad advice and ask her to leave...she is not aware of this plan, but trust me it will hit her.
I allow her to do little job to have her own finance is not as if she contribute anything in the house, but she is claiming stubborn, I love her so much, it will hurt me to cheat on her, something I have not done since I got married to her.
I plan moving to a new place in February, and she doesn't fit into my plans.

My decision between now and December is
1 Avoid asking her for lobe making
2 Continue taking care of her so she won't suspect anything
3 when she comes close I avoid her.
4 February I issues divorce papers and give her like 1m to go get her life back

Is there anything more I can do for her?
Advice me pls...
Men and women sex drive are not the same.
You can't fault her, she might not have any single sex drive left in her after having kids.

These are some of the reasons why our ancestors married a much younger wife later in life. Even in the bible and Quran, the historic men that were discussed took a much younger wife later in their lives.
Even if you guys talk it out she will still lose interest after some time.
I don't think divorce is right, marrying a younger lady legally might just solve all the issues

Since your problem is Sex and your wife cannot meet up your demands I don't think the issue of divorce should be brought up.
Remember, there are children in the picture.
My take, since your dad prefer divorce to cheating, I'd advise you take a second wife and let the sleeping dog l..

No sane woman should do 50-50 finance with a Nigerian man in Nigeria. Not when she would have the kids and be left to tend to the home and submit.

Research studies have shown that in more egalitarian countries like Sweden, Norway, Finland, Canada, with unionized economic systems and with gender quota legislations etc when women are given the power of choice, they ironically tend to take on more traditional roles and infact the gender gap in STEM fields broaden. I dunno how long you've lived outside Nigeria, but if you have lived in any of these countries, you'd find that women still voluntarily take on these roles.

The answer is cost of living, an average monthly rent for a family of 3 cost $2000 in the USA, £1,200 in the UK & CAD$2529 in Canada. You can't pay that rent alone except your spouse is also working.

You think it's all about food, clean and money, ogbeni, when last did you take your wife out alone? Have you asked her, if she drinks Smirnoff ice or something, if you don't do alcohol, have you considered that she might be the type that drinks, but she is respecting you since you don't .

1. God created marriage in Genesis 2 vs 15-16 and God cursed marriage and childbearing in Genesis 3 vs 16. He washed His hands of the marriage of men declaring it to be of the world of men. Jesus Christ reaffirmed this very declaration in Luke 20 vs 34 - 36 undecided

2. God never said it was not literal since God actually said that is what He would eventually do even in His Law of Moses - Deuteronomy 28 vs 15 - 57 and Deuteronomy 30 vs 1 - 6. God cursed and scattered Israel over 1900 years ago as He said He would, and put a seal on His Old Law as He said He would.

3. Wrong! God allows divorce. Remarriage is what He restricts those who belong to Him, and this is after a divorce. undecided
