You don’t need advice. Do what you have in mind.

10days is enough to trigger a man with infidelity intensions. Just a phone number is good to go. The wife should know what kind of woman is attracted to her husband if she is smart. My opinion...the woman is feeling insecurd before the mother voiced out.

I hired a househelp in October. She is 34 years old. She tells me she wants to get married and that she is not getting any younger.

My mum is around now on a visit and when she heard her saying it, my mum told me to send her away so she will not snatch my husband.

My mum said that people like that when they get too desperate can come up with all kinds of ideas.

I trust my husband but my mum's words have been playing in my head.

I would appreciate your advice.

Thank you.

1 your mum is wrong to come and change this in your home

2 it means she doesnt trust your own judgement on the lady

3 she also doesnt trust the judgement of your husband

4 either in event hubby cheat with her, it simply means both are at faulty meaning hubby has already that cheating thing in him

5 dont let the lady do all the house chores eg cleaning the bedroom etc, still have that privancy of your life

6 give the lady her days off so that she can sociolise with other people i.e being able to meet and date someone than being their 24/7

7 treat her as woman, she will also treat you like a woman and your husband will treat her as such
Re: My Mum Wants Me To Sack My Househelp by Bankowner: 7:59pm On Jan 10
Take heed before there's a role reversal in your constituency. Maid telling you jejely she wants to go and marry and you're talking about trusting your husband. Waiting for the thread containing stories that touch.
Re: My Mum Wants Me To Sack My Househelp by McBishop2020: 8:03pm On Jan 10
Don't make her your maid.
Treat her officially without dehumanizing her.

If you can, help her find another job so that she wouldn't be jobless as she leaves you.

Help her find a husband if possible and she would remain ever grateful to you.

Don't relieve her of her job without proper arrangement for her happiness, because she has done no wrong to you.

Try to find out her real motive for what she said. Before, she uttered it, she must have been harboring it in her mind and it is likely deep-seated.

Ask her if her working with you is hindering her in anyway from socializing and getting the man she desires, anything to let her open up and be attentive to read between lines.

If, you observe any form of desperation on her part especially if she tells you, she has enough time to catch on her dates and all that, do not hesitate to disengage her abeit in good faith with some goodies if you can afford.

If it happens, she is time constraint, you can tell her to find a job or business that will let her get time for her private life and encourage her through learning the skill or support her to move on in that direction. Don't rush to make a decision but be more observant with her now.

Package good things for her and let her go - don't think of sacking, think of her freedom to fulfil her own destiny.

Be fair enough to let her go, not because of your mum's words but for her future.
She's 34 years old, she also has needs and desires and has declared she wants a family… so just let her go.






You're the one reasoning negatively because you did not read my comment to understand, but rather to reply.

Nobody said the OP is the one tying her down. But she comes to the OP's house to work everyday, that even the OP's mother had advised her to let her go. Or is it until the OP comes to post shocking stories before you tell her why hasn't she let her go since?

The said woman declared she wants to have a family, I've heard and read and seen similar stories that end up in tears because the right steps were not taken on time.

This is not about labeling the lady a husband snatcher, no, I'll never call her that, but you don't trust people too much till they come into your relationship, and even replace you.

So @OP, if you value your relationship, let that lady go.

You don't have to ill treat her; don't try that. Just pay her, tip her, thank her, and tell her you'd no longer be needing her services.


Try and keep your advice short nah. Must you say everything in your mind?

There is a problem when an African woman

But, we are not ready to discuss this.

Re: My Mum Wants Me To Sack My Househelp by Originalsly: 11:26pm On Jan 10
Which female 25 to 35 doesn't want to be married? If you sack her ... who would you employ? .... a child? ... or a married woman? If a married woman... she would be a bigger threat. Swear for no man ... especially when it comes to relationship with women .... nature is a verrry strong force. When in known history did men in power not sleep with low class women? ... or masters slept with their slaves? Don't think your husband is not "cheap" so he wouldn't sleep with a helper. Her coming to work from home makes a big difference... it reduces the risk ... he may not even be around much to form a relationship. My advice is for you to not let her go .... but do not allow a situation where she and your husband only will be at home ... or be having private conversations and be mindful of what she wears.

I don't believe this story. A desperate person is very smart, if you like don't listen to your mother. A woman knows the heart of other women.
Re: My Mum Wants Me To Sack My Househelp by Dewillys(m): 6:28am On Jan 11
I'm a married man and I love my wife. But you see this issue of househelps, one needs to be careful. Your husband might not have the mind of ever cheating on you with the lady, but you can never tell with a man when alone with a maid -Proverbs 30:19. Because, EMOTION IS STRONGER THAN KNOWLEDGE.
You had better obey your mum by sending the lady away to avoid future trouble.

Letting her go means relieving her of her Job. I beg job scare oooo. Madam nor sack her. Just make sure there are boundaries for her and make sure your faithful husband does not loose guide.

Anybody can fall ooo. Even the supposed protector can become a predator.
