njokusboy: It's courtesy and I believe a wife should say thank you each time she is given anything by her husband. I do |

Mandatory ? ! Hell no. Some women will look at you in a strange if you even say ' Thank you' after each meal. Some African women are even embarrassed to hear it from their husband. In all my years growing up at home, I've never heard my dad say thank you After meals. On the contrary, he will bark that the plates should be removed. However, my mom cooks the food, but does not serve it. The maid serves it. I am sure most Igbo wives can relate to this. Many Igbo men still live like Okonkwo in " Things fall apart". Very few say thank you to their wives after serving them food. Many wives feel uncomfortable to even hear that 'thank you' that they don't really know how to respond. I don't think many African men say thank you to their wives for cooking for them. It is not expected. You can always thank your wife in many other ways. |

It is MANDATORY to tell your wife "Thank You", and if you forget to thank her, do apologize if she reminds you. The fact that you were not raised with that orientation does not mean it was right. You should learn the simple habits of courtesy, and make sure you pass that to your kids. My wife even makes me say thank you to the domestic staff when they present me anything and she also makes me add "Please" when asking anyone for anything. I accept these corrections and I have realized that life is more pleasant at home when I use more "Thank you" and "Please". 7 Likes |

Damn i can't even read that post...You say your culture doesn't allow what? Man leave culture.. You lack simple courtesy....You're the kind of men who don't appreciate their wives! If you'd learnt the art of thanking her after those delicious meals she wouldn't have been incessantly reminding you... 1 Like |

I think saying thank you isn't a big deal even if it skip your mind sometimes simply tell her sorry dear it skip mind. It's because you don't appreciate her in the first place that's why she's demanding for it. So please learn to appreciate all the way. |

I don't understand. Many people kept saying he should be thanking his wife after serving her meals. Did she always knelt down before serving you the food? Did she always say thank you after u've provided funds for the food? When u know its ur duty as the head of the home. Is your wife now saying she is doing you a favor cooking food for you and the whole family? See, it is normal for her to cook food for the home. Everyone with their duty. Op, I smell that your wife has gotten a new friend that is pushing her. If you say thank you, fine. If you do not, she shouldn't hold you for it. |

Wetin greeting go comot for your body? You and I know that woman loves to be appreciated in whatever they do, anytime they make hairs, wash your cloths, cook for you, clean the house they all expect that simple compliment, i don't see anything wrong in giving them that. E no dey reduce money wey u get for account |

Rubbish question. Is it mandatory for you to thank GOD for keeping you alive? Anyone who gives you food is a god. If it is so easy, eat your money. I feel odd when I don't say thanks to GOD after eating then peek my girlfriend ( now ex) after eating. |

Not thanking her means you are arrogant,because saying 'Thank You' doesn't remove anything from my body. *Am not married though* |

Yea, however it's not mandatory but you should thank your wife to show sign of appreciation cuz she's your partner not your slave! |
