Family › Re: Why Men Are Treated Badly At Old Age? by ImaIma1(f): 2:17pm On Aug 24, 2021
otipoju:
As you labor hard to take care of your wife and children...do not forget to invest for your old age.

There is no guarantee that your children will reciprocate the sacrifices you made. Women also use that period to poison the children's mind against their father.( they are very good at this)

A lot of women dont have the capacity to love....they calculate. If the man is not of any benefit to them right now, or does not have the potential of being of any benefit to them in the future, they will throw you in the dustbin.

Na men dey fall in love. Wise up and enjoy your time on earth doing whatever it is you love doing.
If you invest love and time in your children, nobody can turn their hearts against you. Children are that simple.

A man cannot live his life carelessly and think that providing school fees and feeding money is enough to build a bond. A woman will work just like the man and contribute money also, and still find time to bond with the children. It's not rocket science. It's simple cause and effect.

A man that comes to say the mum poisoned the children against him has a big fault there. He has an equal chance with his wife to bond with his children.

Since the reason you got the car was because of the wife and kids, retrieve the car from your brother. You can either sell it and give her the money to set herself up or give the car to someone else who will be remitting to you. Then you give her a portion of it monthly as it comes.

But just get the car from him and let him handle himself. You guys should wash your hands off him and let him go out there like a man and hustle. You guys have babied him too much for too long. You guys have spoilt him enough and are to blame for a lot of his actions.

Too much igbo for different audience.

I remember like 2yrs back, a friend's babe had to travel to the village to take care of her dad who had recently gone blind. Her mum was alive but the father had sent the mum away and married a younger wife. The younger wife left the man and he had to fall back on his children.

The babe was advised to go back to Lagos and live her life and not waste it caring for the father in the village. The children had to come together to pay someone to care for him.

On the other hand, my mum and all of us were there for my dad for 7yrs of stroke before he passed. He was a typical family man. Took my mum out on company dinners, outings, etc. She sacrificed her time and health for 7yrs for him.

So I can relate. Consequences are waiting in front.

In this case the woman is.
The man is misbehaving, that doesnt mean he loves her less.
But generally speaking both genders in this generation easily fall out of love, they keep looking for what doesn't exist.

Please, who is the man after Gods heart? David abi, and you know the story.
He kept dissapointing God but he was always sober and sorry for his actions, listen no man/woman is perfect we all have flaws,so the earlier you realize that the better for us.
Its not an easy task totally cutting off a woman who has a child for you, so she should understand that its a process.
He made his mistake sleeping with the babies mother but no child is a mistake.

Listen i am not comparing Tonto, i gave a visible instance, that the general public can relate to, their are so many in my locality but you cant relate.

Women should not be pushed, yes i accept that, most of us would have not been graduates today, if not that our parents understood and pushed us, i can remember my numerous refusals to return back to boarding school, but my parents kept encouraging and advicing me.
Same plays out in marriage, we dont always get all we want, so we need people to encourage us on ways to go about it and not always quitting, thats the job of counselors.

I dont slut shame women, men are even treated more badly in the society than women, a lot of men forgive unfaithful women and keep mute, to save her the shame due to the love they have for her, but women find it diffcult to cover, they always want the world to know their husbands shortcomings.

Learn to build your home and dont let pride scatter things.
I totally disagree with the second to the last paragraph. Men find it very difficult to forgive cheating women. In fact, it's a big blow to their ego. But a woman will keep staying to patch things up.

The man can not cut off totally from the woman does not mean he has to keep sleeping with her if truly he loves his wife. He told her that he would stop but a cheat cannot help himself.

I knew a doctor that worked in an HIV centre and he told me that most of the married women who had the disease contracted it from their husbands. That shook me and made me fear men who throw caution to the wind and cheat recklessly.

If a man keeps cheating that way, his love for his wife is questionable. How can someone love you and put you in danger? What is love? Definitely not what this man is showing.

Emmanuel909090:
Stop comparing people, i wonder why its so easy for this young generation to easily fall out of love.
What happened to fixing things?
Thats the reason why you will see a woman who has divorced 3 times and is on to the next.

Tonto thought it was greener, her new guy who has not even married her is already cheating.

Learn to build your partner into what you want, with patience, love, tolerance and prayers.
In this case, is it the man or the woman that has fallen out of love?

Fixing things means that the person acknowledges his/her wrong and turns away from it. But this man has continued in his cheating ways even after resolution.

You say "stop comparing people...", yet you compare women with Tonto. Tonto Dike does not represent the average woman. And her choice of men is a personal problem.

Women should not be pushed to stay in an unfaithful marriage. Whatever decision they make should be accepted.

If this thread was about a cheating wife, the comments would have been different. The woman would have been called unprintable names and slut shamed. But as it is a man, many men will always support their kind and rationalize the situation to suit them.

I disagree.

The working conditions at her hospital are shitty. The other doctor who works at the private hospital doesn't have these problems.

Someone who has succeeded to graduate from medical school should be treated with more respect and not made to pose danger to her patients because the hospital burns her out and she is constantly tired.
Being a doctor takes much more than graduating from medical school. Having the heart to practice is very important because not everyone will end up in convenient places.

Look at doctors in the US during the critical COVID period that had to work tirelessly. Their concern is always for their patients to be well. You can't come and be complaining about not having time for events, etc.

I know people who studied medicine but work in sectors where they still use their medical degree but do not attend to patients.

It's actually not by force to be in a career if it doesn't match your personality or you don't get satisfaction doing it. Doctors are not called super heroes for nothing o.

It seems Dr Chi chi does not know what she signed up for? Did anyone choose the profession for her?

If it's really affecting her, it's best she switches to other medical practices that doesn't require attending to patients or she should start selling clothes.

Notice how the op is only aligning mostly with guys that are saying his sister should stay and ignoring those who are pointing out that the marriage is not safe for her.

Op since you already knew what you would do, why did you bring it here? To validate your own opinion?

Some people will still advise her to stay for the sake of her children and of what society will say.
Family › Re: My Sister Wants To Quit Her Young Marriage. by ImaIma1(f):
I think the major determinant here is money. The wife and her family are not buoyant enough to ask her to quit the marriage. Because, no one is thinking of the wife's safety; but only about how she will survive if she leaves.

The man has one side chick she knows doesn't mean that's the only woman he is sleeping with, especially as the side chick is even beginning to ration the sex for him. And the man is obviously an advocate of "skin to skin". So where does that leave the wife?

If she had her own money or her family did, wouldn't she have run for her life? But op is here looking for a way to keep her there since the burden will fall on him.

If the man doesn't want her to know about the company, can she force herself there?

A woman should also be earning, whether through business or employment. Being a full time housewife is not advisable.

It rains every where, I don't want her to make a decision she will regret for the rest of her life.
The truth is that your sister's life is in danger. She's married to a reckless man. He's not even cheating with protection, but putting her life at risk. The baby mama might be sleeping with other men, and your innocent sister who is probably faithful will just be caught up in all the mess.

What if she comes and tells you she contracted HIV? Will you understand the magnitude of the problem?

Besides, he has broken the trust between them. It will be hard for her to ever trust him again.

1. That's why my people (Yorubas) say a bad spouse is better than bad in-laws.

They figure that if a wife/husband doesn't have sense, their family would call them to order.

But if the in-laws don't have sense with a senseless spouse? It is finished!
Exactly. Bad in-laws can destroy a marriage especially if the spouse too doesn't have sense.

RightToReject:
The lie that women didn't use to cheat before has become stale already because it's an established fact that most women, just like most men, have been cheating from time immemorial. Evidence abounds everywhere.

The only thing that made it seems as if women weren't used to cheating in the past, even up to now to some extent, is because they do mask their act with disingenuousness. That is unlike men that have always been haughty with their acts, even though some have adopted the disingenuous approach of women in this regard since the wake of the wave of equality, especially in the West.
Just the way women used to suffer till the end in marriage because of what people will say or because of the children.

Right now women are bold enough to walk away from abusive marriages and some of them can boldly cheat especially when their men are cheating.

And even if they used to hide it before, men made it not a big deal to cheat with the way they do it unashamedly. So when we are calling out women, let's also call out the masters of the game.

Spend time with them doing anything...helping with their homework, taking them out with you when you are going grocery shopping or going around the corner,and buy them ice cream. You can also get involved with their grooming; bathing them, brushing their teeth, if they are still small.

Children are easy to win over. You just have to invest time.

You will never understand until you get there. You have to stop leaning on your own understanding so the salvation power of God can take over your entire life. It's not by our power that we are bornagain and the power at work in us is what places us where we are today; not our careful works or walk. By strength shall no man prevail.

It's important to surrender ones whole being to God to experience the Lordship of Jesus Christ and stop searching him with our human understanding.

Lets strive for spiritual understanding.
I'm there. That's why I understand it. Has God's salvation ever made a man above sinning? If it has, why do we ask for forgiveness when we pray?

You have already agreed that a true Christian can fall. So why are we still dragging this matter. And why are you trying to cover the truth with spirituality?
Family › Re: Christians Marriage: Why So Much Divorce? by ImaIma1(f):
CharisEleos:
I'm not saying a bornagain is infallible (which doesn't even always happen at the degree you're citing if at all it happens) but im countering the notion you gave that a casual xtian is better than some "real bornagain" xtians. I beg to disagree.

I never said you should trust anyone absolutely even the bible says test the spirits to know if they are truly of God. So in all your dealings with peeps, be wise as a serpent.
Can a REAL born again Christian fall? Yes. They are human.

Can someone who is just a casual Christian who prays once in a while, reads his Bible only in church on Sundays be faithful and an ideal husband? Yes. He still has a conscience. But of course he becomes even better with being closer to God.

We can't act sanctimonious and believe that everything follows a particular pattern and there's no room for what our minds cannot accept.

God that knows more than all of us knows why these things are so. We need to open the eyes of our understanding instead of being naive Christians.

CharisEleos:
Then you clearly don't know the meaning and characteristics of a true bornagain and that's because you've only met the fake ones.

Being a pastor doesn't certify one a true bornagain. There are so many selfmade pastors who are not truly called. that is why you can have cases of such men of God involved in that kind of scandal.

For a truly regenerated soul it will be very difficult for him to be caught in such mess.
You see only white and black. You should consider grey areas too. What is a fully regenerated soul? Is that person human? Was King David not the closest to God? Didn't his flesh not fail him?

Our father Abraham who we look up to, didn't he give in to his wife's plan? No one is exempted from mistakes or weaknesses because their souls are regenerated.

We should just ask God for his grace to keep on. No man deserves that kind of complete trust; we should leave allowance for faults. Only God should be trusted completely.
