Wow! Interesting. So because I reached out to you as per your gracious offer to unmask yourself based on personal experience and I replied with my feelings (or my own truth) and even told weโ€™re seeking professional counselling and you ghosted me afterwards means Iโ€™m not ready to listen to good advice (or validating my own thoughts).

Sorry Sir, that someone whoโ€™s 50% of a union dare voice out his fear and trepidation.
1. Created an anonymous account
2. I took advice on physical separation to avoid a repeat.
3. Opened up regarding my fears
4. Listened to your personal account and experience

But God forbid that me that saw my eyes flash before my eyes should open up and tell you what doesnโ€™t align with your personal view. You kept on pushing that Iโ€™m not a saint and madam is not all bad, even though I owed up to the causing emotional pain. You donโ€™t know if I have ADHD or any condition which prevents me from fulfilling the emotional needs etc.

But because I must accept your advice hook line and sinker, even at the risk of OUR personal safety and long term viability, Iโ€™m thus โ€œinterested in validating my own thoughtsโ€.

Well done sir.

PS - thanks all for your comments/suggestions. We will seek professional help (from a distance) and follow the process. May God help all of us.


I hope you are not mixing up rayralph and RalpJean.

I think for him to put it out here means he is actively seeking help. No?

Walk into any Sainsbury or Tesco stores around you and ask to see the shift duty manager there. Then introduce yourself and explain your issue, they would advise you on hat to do. Also check Royal Mail website for Seasonal sorting staff vacancies around you. You should also read about tailoring your CV to the UK format ....the Naija format you may be using could be limiting you. All the best.

This is quite unfair, he is the one wearing the shoe and his thoughts are valid. Who defines good advice? You or the person directly involved?

You've done your part by helping, but don't make it look like he's obliged to follow your advice.

We need to appreciate the growth, in the fintech industry........

Back in the days, we only had western union and moneygram (they offered terrible rates + hefty commissions)........๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿค‘๐Ÿ’ฐ

Yeah that's true. Some of our tellers became big boys from Western Union and MoneyGram then... Alot of improvements since 2018...

Let's be critical with our advice and not meddle gender diversity in our opinion.

With the gravity of the issue at hand, what the OP needs to do first and foremost is to leave the house for safety reasons not just for him alone but for the wife as well. When this is achieved, every other thing that leads to resolution or dissolution follows. #Ire o.

Congratulations. Wow Wakefield? I dey Goldthorpe S63.

Need to start my driving license processing now, currently using international drivers license.

Which center please?


With 0 minors. Flawless

I like to think centre matters and examiner too. Last one I did said I failed because I was going 23mph on a 20mph. My mistake was following satnav speed limit whereas we're in a 20 zone.

Oga Lexus the ancestor. ๐Ÿ˜‚ I greet you sir for the good job u doing here and always making time to respond to questions regardless of how relevant or irrelevant.

More grace.


It's not had any effect on my marriage (yet)...... Almost 25 years and still waxing strong........ It's all about commitment, dedication,compromise, setting goals and achieving them, going on couple holidays, spending that 1 day wisely etc etc etc ......

Nothing good, comes easy ....... Couples have to be understanding and work together, not pull apart......

This UK is difficult enough, let's not make it more difficult for ourselves......

If you don't have to be in those two places, might be worth looking at smaller towns as they tend to have much less competition though with fewer jobs.

Seems Scotland is generally terrible for student /part time jobs

Someone was lamenting to me about it earlier this year. Not sure why it's like that

I believe it's due to smaller towns/ cities with less economic footprint. Also not as connected as England. Students are limited in how far they can go moreso with the 20hr cap. Wales seems better
