You are the second class in your own house now either you believe or not. You are a nanny now in your own house.
As you allow her to be the primary holder, then expect alot of shitz in the coming weeks and months when she is totally settled.
She has interest in that guy too may be to update her account and meet up expenses.
Sorry for now, there is nothing you can do than to work your self out personally not minding what ever she does. Zero your mind totally. Abroad is difficult now to survive and every opportunity thrown to a naija girl, she will accept not minding if she is married or not. The handwriting is there. Abroad is different from naija. If you over step your boundaries with her, you might land back to naija in a tinkle of an eye And loose all.
The choice is yours. You can't control her and she won't listen to you either.
This is the BEST ADVICE have seen.

ZERO YOUR MIND. I was going to say sth close this but Egbon has capture everything. You're second level now. She has you now, she can't do shii without her most likely. She understands her position. Feelings can make her emotional towards you or the other man intra days. So expect crazy calls$no calls.

ZERO YOUR MIND. Pet her (don't be extra) and remove jealousy from your actions. Before she starts calling you insecure. I have been in a similar position not married, but my girl earned more than me for a while and I saw EVE. Sorry EVE. Wtf. Why do I keep writing *Evil and gets changed to EVE.

Something you don't want to admit is happening.

1. It's possible that your wife had an online contact with this Mr. Mike before she left Nigeria. It is also possible that they met for the first time in the aircraft or even airport the day she travelled and got close. But the closeness is not ordinary. For someone to look directly into her phone to see who she's talking to, it means he has a level of control over her.

2. It could be that she secretly added him to the call because she wanted him to hear firsthand what you were ranting about so to know how to navigate. It is possible that she was at that very place with him.

3. The church meeting? It was planned. In fact, he took her to the church, and that says a lot. Why then did she lie about the coincidence?

4. She lied about the freezing hands. She didn't want to take your call. So where was she and what was she doing? Maybe they were sitting out that day. She's trying to use her free moments without disturbance.

5. Apart from school, is your wife working? If she is, the man is the one who linked her, and if true, she must have known her way before today. If not, for him to know agencies that could connect you to jobs, it is obvious that he lied about the house thing. He knows the town more than your wife. Probably he has not bedded her yet, but it's close.

6. It is likely that the guy has chopped her or fondled her backside already. For someone you just met to make that kind of comment in an environment where that can easily pass for sexual harassment, it means that they're deep in each other. That cannot come from an ordinary friend you just met. It is deeper.

My layman conclusion:. If your wife has not given him the big backside already, it will soon happen. Your wife has been evasive and you're likely to encounter more realities of the West very soon, especially when you move down to the wild West. Your wife has a high tendency for cheating and your instincts are not wrong. Why is the guy afraid of talking to you? Someone is eating your fat backside guy.




You really get time to analyse situations you ain't sure of. Op go and die of hbp because of a woman you have been with for 11 years. Jobless man

The 27million was not in bulk, I had like 9 million cash, so I had to work extra hard, did other side businesses to raise the rest, so it wasnt like the 27 milly was by the side. You guys saying i couldnt have relocated if I had such amount of money need to understand that we all have different view of this life and how we all plan to succeed and make a better living for ourselves. I have chosen this path because it aint like shes the one that brought the idea, I did, am this kind of guy that love to stay in my country, but with the situation of the country, I personally got tired and the best thing for me is just to move asap.

I don’t know how you men agree to become dependent to a woman and follow her to UK, aren’t you a man. The African in you says you are the man and a woman should follow and support your dreams not the other way. You cannot import western standard to an African, there won’t be balance. When Nigerian girls get abroad, the freedom run them crazy and they can’t sustain it.

The dependant can work well... Student is limited to 20hrs
The man needs to provide n face the hustle more..... More reason men do dependant

well it depends on the birth month of the individual I will share some documents so you see the sign your birth month falls, now I don’t believe in tarot reading, palm reading and all that but I find zodiac signs on the surface interesting, when you compare it to your xteristics or that of your family members or someone you know, you will be truly amazed at what you discover, you will see similarities
Hi there @Caandi smiley

Thanks for the feedback you gave me and the OP.

I have no inhibitions about the zodiac signs and astrology since there are aspects of the cosmic energy that operate within time and space. This is the reason why for years, I have read about the eclectic mix of global faiths and religious paths to get a balanced perspective of people and life.

I'll have a look at what you attached here and I hope the OP (kbower) gets to see it too.

Have a great time ahead.

Ciao.

It's just unfortunate that your wife has been a little insincere and gullible for what will make her future secure with her family. Many of them are natural dominating when they are financially empowered. Just like they say, just take it cool with her for the sake of your kids and [center]watch[/center] her closely if she gets deeper with the other man. Life is too short to worry over her. Try and relocate yourself there and then be financially stable and move on without her.

When you are in rome do like Romans. A relationship in Western world is three time stronger than marriages in Nigeria. If you dare cheat on a white woman she will waste you with bullet. In UK they don't marry much, all the have is partner but write down there dos and dons in the relationship. The run same account in most cases. They pay for house mortgage and car contract from same account.
When the wife is working the husband is taking care of the kids and vise versa. Nigeria people want to have separate account and want to have their own savings while in marriage. If I can't trust a lady or have same account I will leave her. In marriage 1+1 =1 and not 2

Just a little freedom and she is misplacing her priorities.

Sometimes i winder why it is difficult for some women to play along as a team reaching a goal with their husbands
what makes you think she is on your team
she only married you because she couldnt get what she wanted


I will advice you not to worry yourself, the cure for this isn't to run yourself down with hypertension. Stop caring and acting like you cant live without her.

OP, I took my time to read your post (not all of it though) and read lots of comments here as well.

Marriage is so complex that you can’t allow your marriage live off opinions and experiences of strangers. Eventhough some could be useful,, the variables in marriage are to many to learn about marriage through opinions. Now imagine the numerous opinions and advise given to you on this post, don’t forget..everyone is contributing according to either peculiar experience which might be different from yours or according to their personal view of marriage.

Like a revered preacher said…Marriage is a thing of the spirit. The major mentors on the issues of marriage in the bible were not married, that is God, Jesus and Apostle Paul.

There is a template for this marriage thing, forget the whole westernisation, feminism and what you call it. Men only understand LOVE from the prism of RESPECT and SUBMISSION from the woman…that’s why there’s no place in the bible that asked wife to love their husbands, rather they should summit and respect their husbands, because psychologically, that’s a man’s idea of love.

Men or Husbands on the other hand MUST provide that cover of security (physically and emotionally) to their wives, because by that it is easier for the woman’s kneels to touch the ground as a support to the husband.

Whenever these principles are violated, trust me…sooner or later the marriage will witness instability or other negative consequences of marriages

I just finished reading thru all the comments beginning from 8am today too this very min. Guy, you must definitely be as old as me (in your early 40s or late 30s). I followed through with your adjusted attitude towards her calls especially, and probably your prayers, which may have resulted to her coming to her senses. Thanks to God. That was just one of those things women, whatever their status, face on a daily basis. Keep commending her for such accomplishments. More of such will come her way and she will successfully come off unscathed, hopefully.
But e no go easy for u Sha as you eventually join up with her.
I don't wish to see you on NL again with further details. C how small CHILDREN dey insult u.
As for me i dey 9ja, and will give my kids the best of education as my money can afford and go oversees on vacation with them every so often.
Y? Ask David, Obi Cubana, Chief Priest and Wizkid to relocate and here from them.
Y don't the Hausa man Relocate as much as other ethnic groups?
Leave matter Sha.
Besides,I don't want to be a murderer or for domestic violence as a result of being driven to madness by such attitudes from wife and my destiny is ruined as I spend the rest of my life in jail.
Best of luck bro

Points to note

Your dad was/is a provider, he was/is truly the head in title, actions and in deeds. I respect him for that it's not easy, even if your mum worked feeding, school fess, accommodation 3 major things you mentioned here were not her headache how many women can say such today? How many women have these 3 alone settled by their husband's. You know the answer.

Your mum said she never suffered in her marriage so why will your mum misbehave it would be wickedness to be bad to someone who had fulfilled his role as a husband. It's very easy to submit to a man who treats you right as God ordained it.
9 out of 10 times women who misbehave when they have small opportunity are those who have been treated wrongly by their husband's in the past.

It is boys of nowadays who want partnership read all over Nairaland, they can't even provide for their family they also want a lady to provide equally, birth children, nurture them and do all sorts, without relinquishing their leadership role, women are naturally not built for both roles if they do both slowly resistance and resentment will begin to build, then slowly it manifests, even in very religious women.
The economy too doesn't help matters these days so who do we blame? I also don't have an answer.


See ehn until we all go back to the basics as God ordained it marriages might continue to fail.
So you are telling me most Nigerian husbands don't fulfill their role. You are talking trash please. How many ladies like yourself can be supportive of their husbands when the man goes through a tough time briefly? You girls allow all these feminists on Facebook and Twitter to brainwash you into believing nonsense. You husband can never be your equal. Check the Bible when God cursed Adam and Eve. He defined things that way. If you don't like it, don't marry or go become a lesbian. There are useless men out there yes, nothing stops you from divorcing if your husband is useless. Instead, a lot of good men out there undergo stress due to very unsupportive wives. The concept of marriage in Nigeria does not appeal to most guys anymore. It is good sef cos Nigeria is over-populated.

My Dad's business had issues 3 times when I was growing up, and my Mum single handedly carried the house expenses briefly cos she also had her own business. She never complained, the only thing we had to do was cut down a bit on expenses until things picked up again for my Dad. How many of you so-called modern women today in Nigeria can make such a sacrifice without opening my mouths to expose your husband's shame to the world. I rather marry a Cameroon lady, our neighbors here than you jokers. I have travelled several times to Douala and Yaounde for business and the ladies there are very feminine and very few of them fake it. I have also noticed that the Cameroon ladies who come to Nigeria get spoilt after living here for a few years. Even Senegal and Ivory Coast women sef are better than 9ja girls.

It sounds like things are turning around for you both. The reality is that it is tough and challenging. If you were verbally or physically abusive to her, please do not attempt that when you get to the UK. At the same time it does not mean that she should be abusive to you. Even though women are listened to, you are a human being as well and she has no right to abuse you. Try to understand the community/society and adjust your behavior. I wish you well, there is a lot of good that you both can still do for your family.

What you described sounds like an abusive situation. It’s unhealthy for you and your children. And your wife. I am unable to locate your original post So I am unable to quote it.
Please find a social worker and have a discussion with them on the way forward. At the minimum, they will document it.
This will serve as a witness for you if anything were to happen. Because if you say she’s yelling at you all the time, things could escalate at any time. And even if she’s a woman, she has no right to do (be emotionally abusive to her husband) that even in the UK.
