MONEY247:1. Is this the new scope in town? Does this expectation of love also apply to the husband who is the one actually given the major command of love? |

brodalikeme:You have a good head on your shoulders. The OP should move on; he has no respect for his wife or mother-in-law. He & his father-in-law can roll together, after all they are birds of a feather: An adulterous husband and an abusive one. With the way the OP sounds, he will soon join adultery to his abuse if the marriage lasted longer. |

If you don't go, nothing will happen. But if you go and you meet her with a new man or you are embarrassed, you will live with the scar forever in your life |

Sorry for your ordeal, it's a tough one on you considering the fact the marriage ended because of you, however see it as a learning phase and work on your temper and avoid toxic behaviors from women or yourself so that you don't repeat the same mistake in the future... All the best ... |

You'd need look for a lawyer and start the divorce process immediately before they start preparing for your funeral . |

TheDepressed:You want your kids to grow in a sane home and you physically assaulted their mother? If she were me daughter or sister, that marriage is over. |

Avoid people from broken homes una no go hear. Na una two cup of tea be that |

HarunaWest:You still be pikin, no worry when you marry you go understand. Someone said he spanked his wife and you are saying you will pack out. Women are like kids they need spanking once in a while. So spanking your woman is an offense for moving out of your home? |
| Re: A slap and my marriage ended ... What Should I Do? by HarunaWest(m): 9:25am On Feb 14 |
angelboy01:lol. Say na spanking. Dude you gat issues mehn. |

TheDepressed:“Your wife age is 25” says it all. She’s still young. Don’t expect her back home. Just move on with your life.She tricked you and you fell for the trap. Women like that always frustrate their husband into a physical abuse, you fell for it.. she moved out to her mothers to receive more lectures and now she doesn’t even care about the kids. |

brodalikeme:I agree with your post. I'm of the motion that if her mother did not want the marriage in life, why would she want it in death. I was not the best of SIL because of my inability to financially shower them but trust me I had my good days before the union. They treated me like a king, it'll surprise you I had my first child with my wife ( then gf) and didn't know her father ( ie my FIL) until my daughter was 3 ( not that the father was absent from Nigeria oh, infact we drove past their father's house severally and we would see him sitting outside but I never met him until I proposed). My MiL was literally begging me to put money on her daughter's head, that's when I finally went to see the FiL. My point is so not think too much of how they perceived me, it's glaring for everyone to see. In my opinion I'm seen as a boyfriend still not a husband even tho I paid full trade rights and modern marriage. So all of this is kind of easy for them to move on so fastly |

NotOfThisWorld:Coming from a lady...I hold this highly |
| Re: A slap and my marriage ended ... What Should I Do? by TheDepressed(op): 10:24am On Feb 14 |
stanvesco:Yes being alone gives one time to think. I think her mother and her daughter had some sinister plans to take her out of the marriage slowly and stylishly. "They" never believed I could move out of my own house to go into rent. That move kind of put a dent on their plans. Just saying! |

Georgekyrian:1yr is too much a time. Plus she's changed a lot....the things I refused her from doing is the exact things she's into now. Accepting her back will be learning to know and train her again. |
| Re: A slap and my marriage ended ... What Should I Do? by TheDepressed(op): 10:29am On Feb 14 |
baby124:Yes a slap is just. Good luck to the man that has never hit his wife before....infact hold this 🏆 We have seen online, woman with bandaged eyes and swollen mouths still begging for their husbands to be left alone ( that is if he was arrested). That is no justification for hitting a woman but we are all humans and react differently. |
| Re: A slap and my marriage ended ... What Should I Do? by TheDepressed(op): 10:31am On Feb 14 |
SmellingAnus:Yes Thanks....lesson learned. |

HarunaWest:Noted |

teeteepeejay:That's the foundation of it all. Her cousin sister is a baby mama and is making some worth of money selling phones. Her mother showed A1 independent woman. Her best friend don't sleep in her husband's house ( excuse too distant from town) Her eldest sis is in Spain and dancing like she's richer than tiwa savage online Meanwhile pop lives in a rented apartment with faded paints and leaking roofings. She has 4younger siblings who I never supported financially. Her mom's rent is always a topic but I never turn up. ....so the signs were there, I didn't ignore them, I tried to blind her from it but ... |

angelboy01:... Because I've seen worse and the woman go still dey beg make she go back to her husband. It's the genz madness, it should not come as a surprise. that a woman I paid full duty on, will tell me she's waiting for her mother's permission before she returns home, when her father whose still alive has accepted her to go back to her husband's but she refused insisting on a group apology to her mother shows the family has no regard for men. So my treatment wasn't surprising! |
| Re: A slap and my marriage ended ... What Should I Do? by angelboy01(m): 11:02am On Feb 14 |
TheDepressed:Baba first of all go and check my profile. My story hit first page how my ex left me, even bloggers carried it. Abeg free that woman, dem no tie una oblical cord together. You were happy before she came but I understand you are more sad cos of your kid. Best thing is to go to court. That's what I did, you will pay an amount monthly and you will have shared custody. As long as the kids are yours you are good. Just forget the woman . |
| Re: A slap and my marriage ended ... What Should I Do? by TheDepressed(op): 11:04am On Feb 14 |
Respect they say is reciprocal. There's so much weirds to say about my marriage, so much! In my tradition, after the tradition marriage the brides family will bring the bride to her husband's house bearing gifts along. My own case, na me use moto carry my wife go hase. My MiL never dash me 1naira once, if all the times my wife was in her home for weeks ( a true MiL will call the daughters husband to be in the know or even send the daughter away with food stuffs or money but No she accommodated her. I will use my car to pack what a trailer should have packed when she was changing apartments. She came to my home during my sons omugwo ( saw a center rug in my lobby area and requested she should take it to her home instead of us using it as a foot mat lol, my wife was the middleman and I told my wife, you know my kids sit on that rug to watch their TV shows and MiL don't worry I get those aboki children foam I can swap it will), me mumu man says OK. Then it was my wardrobe when I was moving out to a rented apartment, I didn't need it because the new rentals has inbuilt wardrobe, once again my middleman wife comes with the request and I declined this time and said I'll leave it for the incoming tenants. This woman has never used her legs to come to my home to even greet her grandkids unless during omogwu. As for the FiL....he doesn't even know my house till date. Omor I Marry!

angelboy01:I would visit your profile now. But do you mind telling me more about the shared custody thing. Can I have a contact ? |
| Re: A slap and my marriage ended ... What Should I Do? by Dzzzz: 11:23am On Feb 14 |
You messed up when you slapped her bro,just take that as your first mistake…Secondly,Any woman that leaves my house for 10months is done and dusted.Thirdly,Honor your father in laws invite as a last respect to him and not the mother..Never allow that woman back into your house cause if you do,she’ll know her husband is a simp and next time,she will leave again and expect you to come crawling on your knees begging her to come back.. |
| Re: A slap and my marriage ended ... What Should I Do? by angelboy01(m): 11:40am On Feb 14 |
TheDepressed:Baba it's not hard. Just get a lawyer and he will help you. My lawyer did everything. Just make sure to be sending your kids monthly fee. Court pegged my own to 15k per month. They won't say more than that but since you have 2 kids they can say pay 30k or less. I normally send more than 15k sha cos my daughter has a phone so she normally ask me for one or two but that 15k is what I send. If you do more than court says she will take you for granted. So stick to whatever court says. They are mostly ingrates anyways. |
| Re: A slap and my marriage ended ... What Should I Do? by brodalikeme(m): 12:35pm On Feb 14 |
TheDepressed:I understand you bro. But how do you see yourself? Act the way you see yourself. That is the closest circumstance within your control. Your explanation is giving more credence to the fact that you played into their hands. Imagine if you had gone behind their back to honour the father like a son in law should when his daughter gave birth for you. He would have been your strongest ally now. Instead you were driving past his house in despise. See the same way you treated the man is how you're been treated now. People will open up and vulnerable to sensible and responsible individuals They will be confess and admit their wrong doing without you pushing for it. You've not heard everything yet. Get your head straight act with maturity. Remember you have kids with this family The relationship is an irreversible one. |
| Re: A slap and my marriage ended ... What Should I Do? by Pootle: 12:40pm On Feb 14 |
your wife lift you long ago before the slap, her mothers place was just an avenue to go visit whoever. and for the funeral dont go, the dead did not even made peace with you same with the daughter |
| Re: A slap and my marriage ended ... What Should I Do? by TheDepressed(op): 1:44pm On Feb 14 |
Pootle:Uve spoken well. I have halfway concluded I'll be visiting the father and offering him support financially even tho I know he won't be at the funeral either. I can offer more but I will be offering what I can loose that I won't feel pained about for a woman of such. |
| Re: A slap and my marriage ended ... What Should I Do? by TheDepressed(op): 1:50pm On Feb 14 |
brodalikeme:If anyone told me I'll ever get married before 35s I would call such person a false prophet. Everything happened fast. She accepted who she met me as but could not live with who I became in a few years. I'm not poor but I'm not rich, I lack money management. I've seen worse families with a submissive wife. I mean worse even using some of our physical neighbors or my tenants as preferences. Xo... |

TheDepressed:That ideal marriage you yearn for will never be achieved with the kind of woman you married. Find a way to always be in the life of your children i.e via paying their fees and insist they come spend time with you. Trying to make a woman who doesn't love you your wife again would make you more depressed that you will consider suicide a solution. Find another wife, move on. |
| Re: A slap and my marriage ended ... What Should I Do? by TheDepressed(op): 3:13pm On Feb 14 |
Q Neddstark:Yes oh.... |
| Re: A slap and my marriage ended ... What Should I Do? by baby124: 3:22pm On Feb 14 |
TheDepressed:Move on with your life. Keep slapping people. One day you will meet the one that will end it for you. Obviously this thread is your imagination. Go and brush your teeth and greet your mummy. |
| Re: A slap and my marriage ended ... What Should I Do? by Onegai(f): 7:18am On Feb 15 |
TheDepressed:Step 1: ignore almost every comment on this thread Step 2: listen to Brodalikeme's comment. He made a lot of sense Step 3: never, ever use the words "accepting her back will be learning to know and train her again". Once you married her, you two became equal and ONE. If you think I'm lying, go and read your bible. Step 4: get rid of all the silly thoughts in your head. She's not cheating (not yet), you definitely have slept with someone during this period (so you're guilty). Stop looking for people to tell you you're a good person and she's a terrible person, divorce her etc. All of us will leave you alone and move on after encouraging you to divorce and your wife will remarry and that 2 yr old will call another man "Daddy" and if you kidnap the kids to avoid that, she will carry police to arrest you and add wahala to your problems. Step 5: attend the burial respectfully. If you're a good person, you'll do the right thing even if your wife or her siblings are not doing the right thing. That's what God asks us all to do: stop making excuses to misbehave because the other person misbehaved first. Step 6: seriously, listen to Brodalikeme and bury your pride. Send him message off Nairaland. Log out now off NL before you get stupid advice and blow your very fixable marriage up. Or you'll join millions of men who did exactly what you did, blew up their marriages, dust has settled and now they're regretting, even if they remarried. If you have sense, please screenshot everything Brodalikeme said and log out asap. Right now. Before devil wakes up the rest of NL to help you scatter your children's lives. |
