sparklie:On the contrary, I wish every thread were like this and not just about violence and cheating that Family Section is notorious for. Besides she said she wasn't angry/complaining right? OP brought a smile to my face, i wish to read more post like hers. |
webdezzi:At first bolded: unfortunatley for you, I didnt come online to complete the thoughts of re.tards who cant communicate in simple english. At second bolded: it's nice to know you are raising fuulish and uncontrollable boys who will not control their tempers with the opposite sex and will sooner or later end up in jail. Ur problem, not mine. My boys are and will continue to be models for ur generation. |
coputa:It is also possible that when a woman starts working, things start getting better for the family and everybody becomes happier. It's left for the couple to decide which of the possibilities they want to accept. Their choice, not mine! |
webdezzi:Your responses are based on assumptions and are figments of ur imagination. You are allowed to imagine anything but unfortunately, I cant disagree with ur imaginations so long as they are not facts. So dream on brother! ***who is Chinedu? When u are taught not to accept defeat, that turns you into a cultist M lost. |
kaboninc:Still searching for ur answer... |
bukatyne:Tnx |
I need a simplified dictionary to survive on this thread smh |

chaircover: Agree but the formal education part? Should we waive that one for them? ![]() M still learning thou... |
chaircover:@Jaybee3 & chaircover: ![]() I honestly got confused as to the true meaning of a "career woman" after seeing the definition from both sides. Had to even start searching for what a career means. You just never stop learning. Most definitions describe it as the job you do after acquiring formal education and extensive training, so m wondering what they call this fish seller chaircover just described ![]() |
skydeep:Can it be averted? Can you ever be happy with someone that is killing your goals in life? Imagine if your father stopped you from furthering your education in order to take care of him in his old age? You were top in ur class and always wanted to be a medical doctor. Can the frustration within you be averted especially when you have classmates who also have aged fathers and were able to agree alternative arrangements with them, but ur own father refused to work anything out and insist you must stop school as his time on earth is very limited. How would you feel? Remember he seems to have very valid reasons. |
skydeep:Can a frustrated woman who was compelled to quit her job bring joy to anybody in the home? Can she give what she doesn't have? Must the husband kill his wife's goals and aspirations when there are couples going through the same situation and managing it well? I am certain there are better ways of managing the situation and still keeping everybody happy. |
Yes they can! Career women have had successful marriages in the past, still having and will continue to have. Numerous examples abound in every field. I would say celebrity marriages are rather not good examples cuz most are either based on faulty foundations or they just couldn't handle the success. Agreed getting married to a career woman comes with its own peculiar challenges but both parties can overcome them if there is love and understanding between them. And I don't want to believe it's any different from the other type of challenges that comes with marriage, if they cant both effectively solve one, they will solve the other types of challenges as well eg couples who are effectively able to handle the challenges that come with having a career woman in the home are more likely to be able to resolve financial issues, in-law issues, delayed pregnancies etc There are numerous benefits that come with it also, so couples just have to decide if they want to focus on the strengths or the challenges. OP, In the example you gave, how does a woman quitting her job translate to joy coming back to the family? I am struggling to understand the correlation. Are you saying the moment she started working, her husband and children became sorrowful? |

1. Your wife did not constitute a stumbling block to you when you were traveling abroad to further your studies and better your career, why do you want to pose a stumbling block to her own career? Who is the selfish one here? 2. Why do you think you should force your wife to stay with your mother while you are absent urself? If you love ur mum so much, shouldnt you leave wherever you are to come stay with her? 3. You are trying to sow unnecessary seeds of trouble in your marriage by making unproven assumptions about your wife and your father in law. Why all the permutation and combination about her movement? Why would you conclude ur father in law is the one influencing your wife? From your post, you are the one being influenced by friends. 4. On the issue of single girls, it will be a shame if that is what is brewing in your mind. Do not destroy with your own hands the beautiful home you have built over the years. |
spotit:E don do. Ndo! |
bebe2:Lol..abeg no vex |
Still trying to figure out what caused the bloody war on this thread One minute, na gele I hear, next minute, blood full everywhere Guys e don do biko, even boko boys don declare cease fire |
This money can be too much for some family Might just be ok for some And might not be enough for others All na levels! But if I can ask for more and get it, why won't I? You see person wey go ever tell him oga say him salary too much ![]() |
If you ask me I wouldn't dwell too much on her previous relationship(s)...we all have past r/ships that didn't work for one reason or the other. Your girl is doing you a big favor actually. She is telling you exactly how it is, agreed the words are not coming out nice. She is also giving enough time for her words to sink in so you can make up your mind if you wanna go ahead with her or not. So the ball is in your court and nobody can do that for you. Reaccess your priorities, what exactly do you want in a wife? If she fits, go ahead, if not let her go! And be fast about it. |
If you feel so uncomfortable esp for personal reasons like this, you can always request that your account officer be changed or account relocated. Customer is king! |
Even NFF Sef don get factional leader ![]() Naija - country of jokers! |
What nonsense! Nigeria will host it jor...Maiduguri stadium is the perfect location Ebola Vs Boko Haram ![]() |
@jblessed: Congrats dear. May God continue to bless ur family. Regards to DW & DS |
BananaBender:Hehehehe True but maybe things have gotten to that stage where you have to start from the basics before you get to the promise land. |

Na to dey pinch dey go oo, person wey say im mama no go sleep, im sef no go use eye see sleep ![]() |
@ subzidi - many ppl do not give to the church these days not because they are stingy but cuz they believe they are further enriching the wealthy pastors.If he is in that bracket, asking the pastor to speak with him might just do more harm. But if he hates giving naturally, then it might help to give him a better understanding of the benefits of giving. Also, don't limit ur giving to the church and try to carry him along before giving. Eg lets assume you read of a baby with a hole in her heart, show it to hubby, draw up some compassion from him, like telling him to imagine what the baby must be passing thru. Don't even bring up the issue of money initially though he would have read himself that the baby needs money. You could keep bringing up the subject but ensuring he is not irritated. It's like you feeling the pains of the baby Urself. U will be surprised he might be the one to raise the issue of money himself but if he doesn't and you do, he will be more receptable to it cuz you carried him along from the word go. Also, do you have an idea if ur hubby's future plans? He might have some great plans for the future which would require a lot of savings hence, taking out of ur savings for something that is not within his plans is a no no for him. Pls try to discuss with him and draw up some kind of budget and timelines for the future so he is over pressurised into achieving his plans. Generally, some ppl advise couples to still maintain individual accts for personal drawings while still contributing to the joint account. I guess it's for reasons like this. |
Godmystrength:@ Godmystrength, pls do not let all this affect your career, I have seen a nos of promising women develop career issues due to marital poo. Once you get to the office, try and blank out on marital issues till you close for the day. So maybe it's a good thing to wait till weekend. @hispinkolo and Phema have said much of what is on my mind but to add to it, trust your instinct on this matter. A woman's instinct hardly goes wrong in matters like this. You also need to take charge. Whatever you do now will set a precedent for the future. It is well with ur family. |
