This is what you get when you snoop around. Give me one good reason why you checked his phone when you knew you didn’t have the heart to withstand the outcome of your findings?

Right now, you shouldn’t bother your head too much about whether he’s denying or not. As long as he’s providing your needs and taking care of the family, just channel your heart and emotions to something more meaningful. As much as it hurts, it’s safe to say you shouldn’t dwell too much on it. The more you do, the more it hurts and the more it causes rifts between you two. And trust me, nagging him won’t make him stop. It’ll only make him device a more tactical means to cover his tracks.

You seem to be financially stable, divorce him and move on, what about your parents? Run to them and lean on them while your free yourself from this man.
It will get better as soon as you start doing that. kiss
Wishing you strength to raise these kids on your own.
As for the giving him your car so you can jump okada. This idea of displeasing yourself just to please someone else, it's not healthy,

All the best. kiss

so divorce means depriving ur kids the father lol. He is broke and chasing after a woman. I am currently in my father's house for xmas opposite us is a man's grave and his wife . Both Died around 2003. From Aids. D man was a chronic cheat.

That's one of the reasons why cheating scares and pisses me off. Exposing me to diseases, some which can kill, imagine treating HIV for life when you were not the one having sex like a rabbit everywhere.

This might help the woman but pure waste of time and money for the man. How does counselling stop a cheat from cheating?

Perharps this will make her feel better, good for her.

No counselling works like a heart-to- heart, sincere talk between couples.

Poster, sha collect your car.

Your husband won’t change, he will get smarter. The only good that comes out of this is that now you know the kind of man you married.

Treat yourself like a baby girl, don’t do suffer head in marriage based on love, you guys can repair your marriage without you flying bike, and if you have excess cash use it to spoil yourself.

A man that loves you won’t even allow you bike while he drives.
Growing up when my dad has to change one of the cars and we had just one car for a period, it was my mum using it. He used public transportation except for when we had to go out as a family.
I don’t know where men of these days learnt all these strange behaviors that they exhibit.

It is hard to advise in this delicate situation. Cheating is not a husband's right as some people are making it seem.

Cheating does a lot of damage to the family and to the person cheating himself even if he doesn't know.

It tampers with the bond between a couple and destroys every form of love and trust.

At this point, you need to be selfish and do what's best for you and the children. Your husband is selfishly taking care of his sexual urges outside not caring if you are hurt in the process... whether emotionally or health wise.

There are some things I won't take. And one of them is putting me in the line of danger.

He eventually admitted yesterday. But blamed me for it. He also said that i am over reacting that "did i hear he impregnated anyone?"

I feel he only admitted because of the burden of proof against him. Even though he knelt down to beg, i certainly feel he would not have stopped seeing the lady if he wasn't caught.

I am so angry but looking at this children, i am just weak to take action. I don't want to involve family and when i mentioned counselling, he said okay.

I am so heartbroken.

I think before marriage one has to mentally prepare themselves for the worst scenarios possible. Not like you’re expecting them to do something bad, but just understanding that human beings are flawed, nobody will reach your expectations 100% and preparing your mind for extreme disappointment. So when the storm comes, you’re not a train wreck and you won’t allow any human being to make you mentally ill/insane.

Anyways you won’t find your answer here, clearly you guys are having communication issues as your husband is refusing to confess or be transparent. I honestly think you guys need marriage counselling as there could be underlying issues that we do not know about that’s causing issues in your marriage. Try not to get too much family involved as it will make matters worse, they can be very biased and toxic. Don’t make decisions out of anger and take good care of yourself mentally and physically. Prioritise your children and give yourself peace of mind. Understand that when someone cheats on you, most times you are not the issue. So don’t beat yourself up or blame yourself just yet. You will be fine, and I believe you will get your answers through counselling. Love yourself first before anybody.
You wrote a wonderful text but the question is, would you say this if she cheated on her husband?

You will be fine love, time is the healer. Always put yourself first and your kids. You teach people how you deserve to be treated. Treat yourself like the queen you are, your husband will follow. But if you allow yourself to be trampled on, that’s what will happen. You should’ve never allowed your husband to use your car whilst you suffer to take a bike, stop putting your husband before yourself, that’s part of the reason why he’s so nonchalant. Men are naturally rugged and women are soft and should be pampered. It is well my dear.

Blames you for it?He's pushing responsibility.What did he say was your blame?

You should go for counselling.Hope it will help.
Change has to come from within him anyway.It's a shame he's still not taking full responsibility. What does he mean by he didn't 'impregnate someone'?
Take your car back.He's lost the privilege to drive it while you use public transport.

Take your time to decide what you will do.Forgiveness won't come easily but you may decide it's best for your marriage.

I came across this confession today on my counseling table so I thought I should share.

DIVORCED SINGLE MOM WROTE;

I am writing to you in order to make someone understand that it's good to appreciate our partners despite their flaws.

I am 32 years of age.

My ex husband and I dated for 6 years.

We where best of friends.

I waited until he completed college and started work.

My family and his family then met.

We got married and had a son. (7 years old now).

My husband was short tempered at times but our problems started when I wanted to make him feel he couldn't control me.

Every time we argued, I would pack my bags, go to my family and explain.

My sisters would phone my husband and shout at him.

If he was controlling me I would always dare him that if he wished, he could divorce me.

I never wanted divorce.

I just had pride and I never wanted to look like a loose woman in his eyes.

One day I pushed him so hard that for the first time he beat me and locked me outside.

I went to my family, my family took him to the police, every time I looked like I was being abused!

But to be honest, I used to abuse my husband emotionally.

He was arrested and detained.

I was asked by his family to withdraw the case.

I felt that what I was doing was wrong.

My husband was never a violent man, he did what he did because I pushed him to the wall of which he openly knelt down and apologized.

I withdrew the charge, and we reconciled.

After three months, I packed my bags after a small issue and he remained alone.

After two days, I
received a call that he was in the hospital.

My family told me that I shouldn't go there because it would look like I was begging him and my sisters believed he was feigning the illness.

All this time, people felt sorry for me like I was the one being abused.

He spent a week in the hospital, after he came out, I just received a divorce summon.

I wanted to say no to divorce, but because I felt this pride, I wanted him to change his mind and beg me.

I called him and said he would get the divorce because I lived like I was in hell.

When we went to court, I wanted to make him pay, so I told the court that I needed his properties to be shared.

To my surprise he openly told the court that whatever he and I acquired together should be given to me, all he wanted was divorce.

We were divorced in 2009 July.

Now, my husband is married, whilst l am here wasted!

My family members are gossiping about me.

I depend on what my ex husband gives to my son for survival.

I know I wasted my
marriage.

I am here telling all wives that they should be careful how they get advise.

Don't be cheated, don't entertain family interference in your marriage my dear reader.

Even my young sisters are much more respected than me.

Those who encouraged me to get divorced are always teasing and bad mouthing me.

Please ladies, be vigilant in your marriage.

Thought it wise to share my story to save your marriage.

There is no benefit in pride for nothing.

SOMETIMES IT'S NOT THE MAN'S FAULT AT ALL, IT'S YOUR PRIDE,AND THE PEOPLE YOU ALLOWED TO ADVISE YOU,SO BE WISE AND VIGILANT IN YOUR MARRIAGE.

I noticed he has been exchanging calls alot with a particular number on Whatsapp. So I asked him about it and he bacame defensive. He angrily asked for me to give him back his phone, and when i refused he forcefully collected it from me, twisting my fingers in the process.

I later got my hand on his phone at a later time and was able to get the number of the person. I called and i received the shock of my life when the female who answered the call said he's her boy friend and they have been seeing for a while now. She admitted they have been having sex in a hotel, that my husband told her he isn't married.

Thank God my call recorder was on. I have the qhole conversation stored on my phone. I was very calm although my conversation with the lady, wven though it's the hardest thing i have ever had to do.

I confronted my husband and he denied it. I played the recorded call and guess what? He still denied!

We have been married for 4 years with 2 kids. I feel so devastated and awful right now not knowing which way to turn.

He's not apologizing or feeling remorseful. This is too much of a betrayal and I just don't know how we could ever get past this. I feel so betrayed and can't believe he would do this and not think of the impact it would have on me and our kids. I thought we were soulmates and would grown old together.

I have been sobbing all day since i found out.

Has anyone ever gone through this? What is the right way to handle this?

Make up your mind on what to do, most advise that you will get here are from singles and people that don't have experience

Make up your mind what you want to do; either divorce or forgive.
I will advise you forgive and pray for God to change Him, genuine forgiveness but if you can't and if you know you can't be faithful to him then leave, You have right to walk away since he cheated.
Whatever you decide, consider your angels and know that it's not always best to make decisions when angry. May God see us through.

Okay so I read this part and decided to add more.
Wait o, you have been supporting him financially and he still had guts to cheat? How can a broke man who has being failing in this basic family responsibility still have ere.ction? undecided

I need you to think: How can you protect your kids? Where are your relatives? Parents? Can you hand over your kids to some trusted adult in the meantime?

If yes, take them away and get ready for drama.
Do you have any crush? Maybe from secondary school or university? If yes.... good!

Stop sobbing or crying, he is not responding to it. Start a chat with someone from your past, start with a neutral chat. School life, lectures, school uniform, teachers, life after school, church, religion, politics etc. Allow him to occupy you in the meantime. Laugh, have fun. Ignore oga and reconnect with your past. Be cheerful at home, keep up with your wife duties, call your kids and stay connected with them. Ignore oga totally. If you have been dropping money for him, STOP! Pamper yourself. If you have extra cash, buy a luxury product for yourself! And excuse me, you may be needing your precious car more often than usual undecided Stop flying bikes, it's not sexy! And you since you will be wearing high heel shoes, it's not convinent, not anymore! wink

Now, how he reacts will direct you, your next moves, and most importantly, will direct how deep the connection goes. If he is still unconcerned, increase tempo, move to gear 2. Fix a date. Again, still keep it as neutral as possible. Meet him at Mr Biggs or Tantalizers. Go with one of your kids (the one that will tell Daddy that “Uncle Sam” bought him ice cream tongue)! Lol.

Lemme know when you get to gear 4 cheesy

Whatever you do, do not leave your matrimonial home for any baskard slay queen! Na him go run commot. Keep that recording very safe too. We die dia!

Hey, it's just an advice. You must not follow it!

This is the husband. All of you are Mumu. Because she didn't tell you what she did. Because of you people's advices, the home is broken �
