My hubby was my friend for a long period of time b4 we started dating and eventually got married. We are likes peas in a pod. My friend got married 6 months after she met her partner and they are now inseparable. U can get married to ur best friend(opposite sex) or develop friendship wen u get married. |

@ milkytea, it depends on ur type of partner, u shud knw wot works for u to maintain peace in ur relationship. For me, wen my hubby is angry and u talk back, u av added salt on open wounds. I jst ignore him and stay on my own( if I'm not at fault) until he is ready to reason with me. I don't like shouting cos I cry easily |

@Meddler- he didn't deny d affair, he apologised. Yes, it's very possible to rebuild d trust. Ur first step is to forgive him from d depth of ur heart. If u truly forgive him, trust will be built back gradually. |

Kachisbarbie: lolz. When I go silent for long, I tend to harbour a lot evil thought/revenge. I avoid it as much as possible. You know it starts from 1min to 5mins, 1hour a day....b4 you know it, it becomes a habit.
Not good @alll yea dats true. Cos wen my silent mode is activated, I start tinkin of all his faults and imagining how I'm able to cope  |

Sometimes silence is better. I give d silent treatment to make my hubby calm. He comes back to sort tins out if I jst bone and maintain my lane. But if I rant, hmm, d house will be on fire and he won't knw I'm angry. He dreads my silence |

Tiredwify: Uhmmm....
Just like some of you suggested, i went on my knees to beg him. I apologised for locking up his shirt and every of my action that might have gotten him upset. Meanwhile, he stopped eating my food and sleeping in our room.
He said he knew my intentions were right but my approach was wrong. I told him that if he had answered my question that night maybe there wouldn't have been need for quarrels.
He apologised for beating me and that he didn't mean to.
Okay! Quarrel settled. I have resolved to do the following:
1. Speak to my pastor to arrange counselling classes for us 2. I will ask him for monthly upkeep and whatever he says becomes the rule for that month. 3. I will never ask him how he spends his salary again. 4. I will start saving on my own (massively) 5. I will ask him for every need in the house, i will assist in meeting the ones he cant meet.
Please chip in one or two things concerning these resolutions of mine.
Thanks for being there always!!! my dear u've made a right decision. Add ur own finances only wen necessary cos u r his helpmeet. D Lord will strengthen us. |

freshdude2: I'm sorry, I'll have to disagree with you on this. A spouse should know how much their partner earns. OP was well within her rights to ask how her husband's salary got drained, especially as needs couldn't be met. Pls don't misquote me, read again. Yes, u shud knw how much ur spouse earns but u shudnt be askin how it was spent. I won't expect my hubby to ask me how I spent my salary(he has neva done dat), so I won't do same |
Family › Re: My Husband Says I Am The Cause Of His Problem by emeraldoe(f): 7:53pm On Nov 15, 2014 |
He probably feels u hooked him with d pregnancy dats why he said u're d cause of his problems(increased responsibilities) . A woman shudnt ask her husband how he spent his salary, d man's pride will be hurt. he will feel threatened cos u earn than him. Pls don't 'lock him' next tym so he doesn't disfigure u with blows. I'm scared of marks on my body |

Marc9: I'm sorry about that.
Well, your nasal cogestion is quite persistent. But I guess the reason is because you actually missed out an important medication. You missed out vitamin C. It seems the vitamin C in your body is drastically low.
Ascorbic acid, better known as vitamin C, helps the body to fight off infections, germs, cold, and nasal cogestion.
For your dyspnea, you may get a strong inhaler to help dilate and clear the nasal clog in your nasal cavity. ok thanks but I actually forgot, I've also bin on Vitamin C. Talkin of strong inhaler, is it like Ventolin or Seretide inhaler? NB: I'm asthmatic but I av never had catarrhal for 3wks at a stretch |
Health › Re: Health Advice: Doctors Online by emeraldoe(f): 7:45pm On Nov 06, 2014 |
Gud evening doc. I av a serious problem. I had catarrhal with blocked nostrils 3weeks back and it is still there despite medications. I took Ciprofloxacin, loratidine, actifed and used drutivin nasal drops and even did steam inhalation but no improvement. It affects my breathing, I av to open my mouth to take in air and worse at nite dat I wake up frm sleep cos I find it difficult breathing. It's becoming embarrassing, I don't knw wot else to do. |
Family › Re: When Should Kids Start School? by emeraldoe(f): 6:58pm On Nov 06, 2014 |
My daughter started at 1 and she coped well, she is 4yrs old now. Her brother is 1yr 8mths and has not started but he can count to 20 on his own and recite some poems. Basically, it depends on ur routine either workin class or sit-at-home mom. I'm workin and my mum is with me so I decided to leave him at home till he is 2yrs. 'mature enough for academics'- at the early stage, they are taught sounds, identification and colouring. It depends on wot u want. |

Health › Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by emeraldoe(f): 9:34am On Nov 04, 2014 |
Zikamax: Dear, I really feel sorry for ur baby and u too. Dis kind of situation is really a big challenge. Have u gone to a teaching hospital? Or to a pediatrician? If yes, then I'll say maybe ur baby is from "Dada" lineage. There are babies who are naturally born "dadas". Just like Samson in the Bible, their hair must not be combed or cut untill an appointed time. Mostly Igbos believe in "dada", and my cousin is a living example. Unknown to all of including his mum, he was born a dada. His problem started when his hair was cut at 12 months, his mum took him to different hospitals to no avail. His condition was getting worse each passing day. To cut d long story short, his mum later took him to a herbalist who confirmed his identity. His hair was left untouched untill after 9 months when d boy willingly asked a fellow dada play mate to cut his hair. It was then that they returned to the herbalist who approved his hair cut. He is now a healthy and intelligent boy. Growing more healthier dan his mates. Initially I thought dada was nothing but a superstitious believe untill my cousin's own. At times u'll see a child of 2 yrs without a hair cut, some go crippled if cut, some fall sick mysteroiusly, just think about it. Ur baby really need ur help now.  |
