News reaching me an hour ago cheesy

A young married lady who has the been carrying the family responsibilities for the past three years, when she collects her money clients pay her for her interior decorating biz, she usually give her jobless husband 70% while she keeps 30% for herself. All to make the man feel he's in control and still the head. Food, clothes, shoes, house rent, baby naming all on her neck.

Just last weekend, the husband has quietly parked out of their home in banana island, which she rented with her money not too long ago. He left his wife with his two kids and also cleared her 15million naira, which she has been keeping account of, everytime she gives him money from her business proceeds.
The plan was to build their dream home with it.

The husband is nowhere to be found with a his clothes, shoes and passport with her 15 million naira!!!

He don ja! cheesy

God abeg o!
My dear God bless you for this post

Personally I know a number of women who are taking care of financial responsibilities in their families because their husbands are going through tough times but these women don't come out to announce it because of shame and because for some odd reason many married women like competing with each other to prove their marriage is better

Silly small boys on Nairaland that never leave their houses will not know the true situation of things but will come out claiming that women never bring anything to the table.

Romance › Dear Ladies, Please Don't Date Or Marry A Broke Guy by CHoccolaTE(op):
Over the years, there has been this notion that broke guys should not be in relationship and I think this is true.
There is no romance without finance. This has been a cliche that has been used by the female folk for quite a while and in all sincerity, it is the truth. Every relationship, be it marriage or courtship or boy/girl romance needs money to drive those exciting moments that makes the relationship memorable.
Being broke is relative. It means different things to different people. There is no universal benchmark to ascertain a certain level of financial freedom that can be classified as being financially stable. For instance, lady A can decide to marry a guy who earns 100k, and to her, that guy is financially stable while lady B can decide to have nothing to do with a guy who earns less than 500k per month.
That said, I think it is only right for girls to demand financial stability from their partners before dating or marriage. Everyone has priorities and relationship needs and I think it is not wise to date anyone (male or female) who has money issues. That is not to say all broke guys should be curved. There are some guys who are ambitious and hardworking but they are yet to achieve that financial freedom. To this group of guys, ladies should learn be discerning enough to know whether to stick to them because you don't want to end up with a permanent liability as a husband.
As a woman it's very difficult to see your children struggling to survive while their mates go to the best schools and wear the best clothes.
Truth is that you as a female might find it difficult to do some very tasking jobs when you get pregnant or while you are nursing not to mention the fact that many companies discriminate against married women with children because they believe these women would place their children over their jobs and cause setbacks.
In times like that, the task of hustling and being breadwinner should already be covered by the guy to avoid the family going into financial crises

Ladies, you know how the average Nigerian man will not see it as his duty to go shopping in the market to buy household items, they won't see it as their duty to cook for the family or do daily house cleaning so the job falls on you as a woman in majority of cases, do not go about taking losses and doing glorified housemaid and baby making machine and sex slave for a guy who you will still go out daily to hustle money and feed while he bosses you around as the head of house and demands submission from you.

So, dont date or marry any guy who sees you as key to financial freedom or stability. In a relationship, both parties are meant to benefit equally.
Yes, the woman should compliment her man financially but in Nigerian societies, it's not your primary responsibility to provide.

Look for a capable guy that can do it before getting married to avoid birthing kids that will come to this world and suffer.

You people have come again OP

Let me go and open thread asking women to not marry broke guys insults go plenty for the thread no be small.

Yet some confused entitled hypocrites want a wife who isn't broke, who is obedient and submissive, who also pays bills at home and yada yada yada

Entitled selfish pricks

They will never agree that men must be domesticated before marriage but they want women who are breadwinners and hustlers

Mindfulness:
In They didn't plan it from the beginning. They developed and changed so OP's message to ladies to have something going on for themselves instead of waiting for a man to make a difference in their lives is a good message since we have too many ladies thinking that marriage is the ultimate and only goal in their lives not realizing that there is more to life than marriage and that a good relationship consists of two people willing to grow independently and together. If a lady wants a high quality man, she must be high quality too. It's not enough to look pretty and often men do not even go for the prettiest ladies but women who add value to their lives, more value than a maid could add.
What do you mean by "more value than a maid could add"?
So in addition to cooking and cleaning and taking care of children women are also under obligation to provide for men and be breadwinners too?

While all the men do is go off to work and return back to rest?

I dont think you even live in Nigeria, Nigeria where the average man tells himself he is too big to do housework and cooking so are women now supposed to handle the homefront also slit bills just to prove herself otherwise the man would be justified in leaving her because she contributed nothing?

You cant find all these qualities in only one woman, you might need to settle for only 60% or 70% or even 50% sef.
Women like the ones you described are usually snatched up pretty quickly by discerning guys due to their intelligence (no tribalism, sound in politics, mathematician, sense of humanity etc) That's a very high quality lady you described there and she certainly will not be looking online for a boyfriend or husband she knows nothing about except if she has some other serious flaw like very extreme introversion or some physical disability.

Be realistic in your search, you can have values but be realistic.

@topic,

Many men dont understand that after marriage you mist protect your family as part of being a good leader to them. They think leadership is just about giving orders and commanding everybody left and right.

Download phone recorder and appeal to your SILs to forgive you one by one then show the recording to your husband. Pour your heart into the apology so he will know your hands are clean in the whole issue, when talking to them you can also include the part of you honestly being unaware of doing anything to hurt them and ask God to bear you witness, Nigerians are religious and anything involving calling God is usually taken seriously.

So sorry for all this ma, please accept my sympathies, it's unfortunate Nigerian marriages are largely unfavourable to women. Na women dey suffer pass for marriage but oddly enough many of them dont have sense to support each other eg your sister innlaws.

Call them sha and say sorry just to keep your home together. If your husband doesn't still reconcile with you after everything then involve your own family and report his immature arse.

There are cases of the wife depending on husband only for the husband to fall sick or die and suddenly everyone in their family starts panicking and begging money from others. One guy that lived in my former compound who worked in a multinational oil company, the man had three wives and they had small caravans or kiosks in front of their houses where they sold small provisions, plaited hair and grinded cooking items with their engine.

This man died when many of his kids were still small children, do you know that even with these shops the women had it was difficult for them to cope because they were not even selling much to begin with they were running very very small scale businesses and one of the dead man's relatives came during the burial and stole his bank books and other statements pertaining to any financial savings he might have had or any will he made.

Till today all f them, more than ten of them still live in that house the man rented almost 20years ago, I didn't ask if they bought the house or are still paying rent, so I dunno about that part. His kids are now local touts in the area and the girls busy dating men of questionable status up and down to get some type of financial assistance from them.

OP of he insists on your being a housewife fine, just tell him that he should keep praying to God to not lose his job unless he dies because you will not run helter skelter trying to raise money to support him because of bad oppressive decisions he made in the marriage.

I swear, I'm tired of this marriage bullocks! I fear for this thing called marriage seriously. Everywhere, rules and regulations just to keep these sets of overgrown urchins called 'men'. In the end, we're not favored.

Ehn, be submissive, watch war room, don't let his food go stale, always be punctual to make a hot bath for him, I've been in marriage for 47 years and I served my husband all through. Wo! I don't like what I hate o! grin

This attitude of insecurity, immaturity, insensitivity and a seeming need to be controlling from the male folks is seriously nauseating. Imagine that one who said men are big babies, and should be pampered. Chai, I no fit laugh. Thunder from above! grin
That's their way

Nigerian men are so selfish and entitled, they truly, honestly believe women are on earth to please them and obey them, that women should not have a life or ambition outside her husbands wishes. Na wa

They claim they are big babies but they want to be leaders that control other people. How can someone with a baby's mentality think of leading another person?

first of it doesn't matter the race... lol a men created ot all, even black men have contributed, it really doesn't matter what race though lol, are you saying only white men go to war to keep you safe?.. or are you saying only white men construct roads...psst please spear me... wars are caused by either radical believes, economic interest or dominance... it only proves men are advanced , our brains are like 1000%, you wonna talk about men causing problems, go on youtube and watch a documentary called "female killers" go there and see the amount of women who are violent, women are as violent as men, the only difference is women get violent for senseless reason, you don't channel your anger for a greater cause, its always for senseless things....

Women are suppressed, read about the work of "marie currie" she won a nobel prize for physics and chemistry around 1880s or so .. at that time she still broke boundaries.. smart woman, the truth is you women love that word "suppression " thats like your anthem, you just can't wait to play the victim, your gender hasn't contributed to evolution because you're just not capable, you don't have the balls to take on challenges, all you're good at is whining and complaining..social media trials.... the real work is done out there, the society we are today gives women alot of privileges than men, you're far from suppressed.... you have everything you need you're just not capable. The fact that 98% of all female billionaires got their wealth from their father or husbands says alot..... i know alot of A+ female students who didn't pursue career, they weren't made to believe they are meant to take care of family, its just a natural instinct that you women have... no one forces anyone to do anything, you have a mind of your own, if you want to build a career path, go for it, just know there are consequences if you go down that path for too long
Oh suddenly race doesnt matter because you want to lump all men together as superior to women? grin
Race matters
Even up till today black men and countries led by black men are bottom of the barrrel

The same way you claim men are 1000% more intelligent than women because of inventions, white men can also claim they are 1000% more intelligent than you

Race matters

White men taught you how to make the roads you build and how to use the weapons you fight your wars with.

Do you think the average white man sees your black ass as equal to him? You better accept the fact that you are inferior to white men since you want to claim superiority based on inventions.

Women are just as intelligent if not more intelligent than men. Look at universities today many best graduating students and first class students are females, this year alone more women did better in STEM courses than men.

The only thing you men have better than women is physical strength, nothing more.
You mentioned Marie Curie as a female inventor, you mentioned women who won nobel prices and broke boundaries and at the same time claim women are inferior mentally, why the contradiction?
You men are the ones that used brute force to keep women down for millenia, concocting oppressive religious and socetal laws to keep power to yourselves because of your innate criminal and sociopathic natures, don't come here and pretend you dont know how little emphasis was placed on female education until some years ago. For heavens sake, in the early nineties women had to fight for the right to vote, men made laws banning them from participating in politics until the feminist movement fought against it. But thank goodness all that is changing, just as women recently stated breaking boundaries and becoming more outspoken and pursuing their ambitions, you will see more of them breaking grounds in scientific areas and society in general.

Men don't fight wars to protect women they fight to protect society, both males and females and the wars are mostly caused by the same men so you have to get your asses out and fight those battles.

Kennedyiheme:
its easy, look at the world today, what do you do by yourself, the car you drive or the bus you take to work, was made by a man, the job you have, a man probably employed you... how can you still ask these questions... haven't you feminist realised its a mans world?
i was trying to avoid this topic of men invented so and so therefore it's a man's world but I have to point somethings out to you

1. Yes white men invented majority of the advanced technological gadgets we use today but it wont make sense for me to start claiming it's A white man's world while black men are inferior, would it? So why do you think you can claim the world is for men because of inventions another race different from yours created? Even white men themselves who invent these things do not believe the world is for them alone or that women are inferior.
2. Do you realise that majority of the carnage and criminal activities perpetuated on earth are because of men's actions and decisions? Wars, rapes, robberies, kidnapping etc are caused by males so if you want to take responsibility for inventions created in history by other men you should be ready to take responsibility for the damage they caused in history as well. Don't pick and choose, fine men invented much of technology but you men also cause deaths and suffering of many innocent people with your deviant behaviour. You are not noble or wonderful Messiahs by any stretch of the imagination. Boko Haram and Fulani herdsmen are men not women.

3. The reason women are not able to contribute more in terms of these inventions you deal of is because the same men restricted their educational advancement and ability to contribute in larger society because of their sick need to control them. If you read history you would know this. Do you think women just demanded to sit at home and not have dreams and ambitions or they chose to be dependent on men by themselves? Right from time in history a woman's worth was placed (unfortunately) on her ability to bear children and be a wife. Societal and religious laws made it so, even up till today many women ditch furthering their education, getting masters and PhD's because they have been conditioned to believe that marrige and children is more important which isn't necessarily true. Let me stop here.

You know how maddening it can be when a woman is dissecting you with her mouth and following you everywhere even when you leave the each place for her?
Both of them can mutually agree not to physically assault each other. He will promise not to hit her and she in turn will promise not to hit her husband

As for quarreling and nagging it's an unavoidable part of close relationships, the man can insult her back if she insults him unjustly or for no reason. No need to hit her

I hate it when you ppl think you can say or do whatever you like and there will be no repercussions,that verbal harrassment or misyarn is what makes males fight and kill themselves sometimes but somehow you ppl believe you can talk and abuse your husband the way you like without consequences ever
If she harangues him with her mouth he should also insult her back or use harsh words on her on return, beating her up is taking it too far.

A married man came home at 2 o clock in the night like an irresponsible teenager and slapped his wife so hard that she bled but of course, trust nairaland guys to absolve him of blame and accuse the wife of breaking the home by complaining.
One even said she should have approached him with love and humility. Lwkmd
Humility how?
Is that a reward for the inconsiderate bad behaviour by the man, by putting his wife and child at risk, opening their doors at that dangerous hour of the night for who knows what to follow him indoors?

Maybe he was out drinking sef and he hit her in a drunken rage who knows?
Who knows if the guy has a drinking problem the woman has been complaining about that he ignored since?

Like I said before I find it hard to believe this guy's account of how things went. A woman will not just get up and leave a guy who has been a loving and responsible husband because he fucked_ up once. I smell lies and omission in this story.
