Her head is not okay.

Yenyenyen love.

You have money and you can’t use it to help your husband, you will now be disturbing his ears with love.

How do you claim to love someone and not help them in difficult times?

Useless love!

Seun:
The main problem was that she didn't give him money. Why would you marry a guy if you dont trust him with money?

What she called emotional and verbal abuse sounds like they were fighting but she wanted to make herself the sole victim. The husband should have handled it better. He is not entitled to her money. But I think the lady contributed more to the failure of her marriage than she realizes.

She speaks of trying to get him to aspire higher which means she was not satisfied with his professional and financial status. So why marry him if his level was not high enough for you? She could have just given him money from time to time like most men who are richer than their wives tend to do.

Wow.. first time I'll be seeing your comment on nairaland Mr. Seun grin

Why did she even marry him in the first place?

You knew his level was far below yours. Yet you agree to marry.

After marriage, you are now nagging that he should step up to your level.

Na feminist be this one oh. grin

But richer men give their wives random cash gifts: change your car, change your wardrobe, buy this diamond set etc. etc.

Why can't the OP gift her husband a new car or whatever toy that catches his fancy?

@OP:

A very complex issue.
Bless you for this. It's sad to many people, A man's money is fr the couple while a woman's money is hers.

Give him money to do what?
She can’t just be giving him money for no just reason. She can spend her money on the home, not giving it to her husband.

A man requesting for money from a woman is only trying to trade his pride as the head of the home.

The only time a man should be given money by a woman is when it is needed for a personal and mental development which will bring a fortune to the man and home
she said it was for a project or didn't you read that part?

To this young lady; At least next time you’ll listen when older and more experienced folk advice you.

The foundation of a peaceful marriage is not love but understanding. There’s nothing wrong with marrying a man you earn higher than and everything wrong with marrying someone you have not had a conversation about money with. A very polygamous philosopher after spending lots of cold nights alone on his rooftop once said, "marry wrong and end up a philosopher." Do not be carried away by what society defines as love, life is not a movie.


Oga @Seun I sight you! grin

Don't ever depend on your wife for money. If you're seriously in need of cash, and then decide to borrow from her, make sure you refund within the time you promised, especially if she earns more than you.
If you are earning more than her, and responsible in taking care of most of the expenses, then you will most likely be spared of much lashing than if not.
Step up as a husband, but not by all means. Don't take on depressive pressure from trying to step up. Step up must never be by way of competition or immediacy. It should be a gradual and continuous process. She accepted to marry you knowingly, but with the expectation that things will improve. Things will improve surely but gradually, with some hardwork and smartness.
If single, ensure not to marry her just because she is rich, comfortable and generous. When most become wives, it becomes a different ball game.

She could have supported him in taking steps that will make him bigger, like supporting him financially in any business or investement he wants to do and so on, that will make the man grow and better financially.

If the table were to be turned, he would have done more for her and not coming online to complain or throw blames.

On a lighter note, I like your point of view on this.
Na real man you be. cheesy grin

I like this post, even pocohantas is not wearing her feminist cloth on this post.

I dey wait for one jagbajantis writer wey her name ne iyaebe abi wetin she call herself to come drop her trash as usual.

So a man requesting money from a woman diminishes his position as the head of the house. undecided

And there's nothing wrong when it's the other way around. undecided

This kind of mentality is what has destroyed many marriages.

Is the average woman happy spending on men as men are happy spending on women?

I don't mean on family or bills.....

Just spoiling the man with material stuff or giving him cash gifts?

Nothing irritates me more than stingy people. Ahnahn! You claim to love him, yet you watch him struggle to meet up and survive. He isn’t even supposed to ask!! She has brains and eyes. She can see his needs and should know where to come in!!

How do people act like that and still have the nerve to say they love you? It builds resentment. It was only a matter of time he begins to hate her. Rather than make amends, she is still claiming he is this and that. She should getaut with her money.

It is better to be with an alata that supports you with her N10, than a Linda Ikeji that won’t give you N100,000.

And she keeps repeating "non traditional." Why did you prefer a "non traditional" marriage but don't want to do what comes with it? That's despite the fact your parents warned you but you didn't listen. Yet, you have the audacity to talk about "non traditional" when you knew in advance what you were going into was "non traditional." Talk about a lady being confused in life.

A so called traditional man should not marry a woman who earns more than him or he’s a thief. Only a man willing to humble himself and work with his wife should marry a woman who earns more.

The marriage is still redeemable. I wish my wife and I could counsel them. At this modern times, husband and wife financial status should be to help each other and not to be wicked to each other. Vulnerabilities and fears should be discussed around money, if not, both parties will be acting irrationally.
