He probably wasn't crying because of the money or that single event. Who knows if he just got to his wits ends at that particular moment. Sometimes it take a lot of energy to not lash out. Such repressed emotions could result in tears. He prolly would have done something a long time ago that would be seen as battering his nursing wife or his visiting mother in law.
Nigerian marriages need less mother- in-law drama and spouses who can't put their mothers in place instead allowing them wreck havoc in their marriage |

When Africans learn to stay away from their kids marriages,we will have happier unions. Poor guy he did the best he could under the circumstances I'm sure when he gets home he will finish it up with a stern warning so that wifey will think well before acting next time.
Good father in law BTW. |

CHoccolaTE: Why are men so scared of gender equality? What are you scared of?  If you truly don't believe that women are equal to men you won't spend hours and hours trying to beat down the claims of women that believe in equality. I wouldn't spend hours arguing with a person that claims the sun doesn't exist because his claims are too ridiculous to take seriously or bother about. You people live in fear of losing your unfair privileges so you keep reiterating your caveman claims of how gender equality cannot exist.
If you don't believe in equality then you believe in inequality, there are no two ways about it. Don't hide under the ridiculous notion of 'equity' and not 'equality' because it makes no sense at all. once you don't agree that both genders are equal then you have agreed that they are unequal meaning that you think one gender is superior to another, which is a stjupid thing to do because superiority in people can come in very many forms.
Of course we cannot all be equal as humans, if you take both genders aside you find that differences exist in individual males and females, do we now set about creating different 'equity' laws for each and every person on earth? Gender equality is not even about turning men to women or women to men. It is providing fair and equal opportunities for both genders and realizing that both males and females are equally important in the scheme of things and deserve equal respect.
I think society as a whole will progress faster if both males and females are given opportunities to develop their potentials instead of forcing an entire gender into a box of stereotypes because of how they were born. You lot complain that women are dependent, gold diggers, lazy, do not strive to attain great heights in life etc etc. Do you not realize that stereotypes is a great part of what keeps them that way? Do you not realize that many of them even though they have the ability to do great things will not bother trying because they have been brainwashed to believe they are less intelligent or less capable than men? Or that they should live their lives in the hopes of becoming nothing but their husband's helper in future? If you remove all these nonsense stereotypes people will start to look inwards and see that they can actually do great things and break grounds that can move society forward............... but then unfair privilege is more enticing to many men than the progress of society. |

bukatyne: Lol!
A friend in the OP's shoes had to go to school by force.
The OP's hubby wants her to a house wife so he is thinking what is the use of schooling?
She will go through this same thing when she wants to work with him because school enlightens and broadens one's mind.
OP:
I would advise you think about going to Open University. You can study online and still be a house wife.
If hubby doesn't bulge for working: start thinking in the lines of business especially online. It is well nice suggestion |

We name okonjo, Dora et al because they had husbands who worked with them as a team until they got to where they are/were.
On the other hand we have men who won't encourage or let their wives further or even finish their education. Of course they always have "good reasons" for such decisions and 'woe' betide the wife who decides to go ahead and do otherwise.even though they might be the next kema if given the needed support.
We can blame the other party as much we like, but the truth remains that just as there are rude and obnoxious women in existence today,there are also men with fragile balls who everyone has to be careful in dealing with because everything seems to emasculate them. It has to be their way or they feel they are not being man enough. |

coogar: does he make enough money in his business? that's the crux of the issue. if he's making enough money, if he's taking care of the bills without complaints & if he has a good life insurance scheme then he's right......your further education is unnecessary!
stay at home - make food for him. do online or petty business from home if you really want to make your own money. this is no issue at all. go & rub his tummy and serve him his best meal. what about her personal fulfillment ? |

Sophyrocks: He went back to his base. Ive forgotten the particular country. You know how Edo parents love their children abroad. His Ex changed location as she couldnt bear the betrayal. It took quite a long while before the wedding took place bccos it seemed the guy had forgotten this lady. I heard he works in a resturant and isnt earning much which was why his wedding was really on a low budget. There was no cake served. so i was told. During the ceremony, he gave credit to his parents for making the wedding possible. it was an arranged marriage/marriage based on betrayal. His parents never wanted his Ex because she is Igbo. When they were still dating, she brought this her friend (The lady he married) along to visit him in a hotel when he came to nigeria. that was how he met her. his parents preferred this lady to his Ex and recommended her for him. We culdnt believe that this lady would do such to her best friend because she appeared to be Nice. Well, i guess once the greed for abroad things sets in, every saint turns to something else. this kind of amebo gist.  |
