Husband Refuses To Keep To Promise by okangisaiah(op): 6:02pm On Aug 23, 2015
A friend of mine told me this:

She met her husband in 2008 both working and schooling. They decided to marry, money did not come as expected so they opted for traditional and court marriage(some siblings of hussy did not welcome her). She earlier complained of the environment her husband was living which is waterside in ph, her husband said he is only living there to school after graduation he will rent a new accommodation and marriage blessing will be done after wife's graduation when she is ready to join him( she was schooling in a different state).

Fast forward to 2015 after 5years of graduation with 2 kids hussy said he will not do wedding or rent house again that he wants to still in the waterside, buy a land and build his own house before packing.

There has been series of problem threatening the survival of the marriage as wife insist the marriage blessing must be done as promised and a new accommodation. That she can't share toilet with over 50 people which has been causing her series of toilet infection.


Mature and serious advise needed please

hmnnnnnn!i don't know why some men make promises they never intended keeping.your friend is lucky that she contracted a legal marriage.i know a lovely woman who they promised wedding after traditional marriage.the moment she got pregnant the guy changed story.each time she laments i tell her she shouldn't have gotten pregnant and she asks if it was wrong to have trusted her husband .i keep shut because husband and wife matter too deep.
sha your friend can fashi the church blessing and press for the relocation.let her appeal to his sense of reasoning.sharing toilet is one hell of a task

If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.

I do not think ur oga has any reason not to pack to a more comforting and serene enviroment, at least two rooms will fairly do for a wife and two kids. but if its d schooling things and taking care of d kids thats making him to be financially un able to move out, then u two must re strategise and let more money come in. Are through with school!is he him self through with sch?how old are d kids??how well is ur oga doing? This qustions begging to b answered, will help us into givinging out advice.

I think both patners salary is hundred thousand plus #30000 allowance of husband. Kids are girls 5 and 18 months. The man's reason is that he needs to start planning for the future.

Thats what happens when you fail to plan your own life while he's planning his. You are relying on promise of the mouth propelled by agro that can fail at anytime without proper documentation (registry wedding) that will force him to behave like a man even if his brain is not better than a 5year old.

You didn't even wait for him to execute his promise before popping out children so if he doesn't you can talk to your legs. You popped out 2, e Don see you finish, he knows you don't have a choice and your options are non existent you're now crying foul.


Don't worry he'll build the house when you are 89years old

the guy Don see her finish na so he'll be like what's the point in wasting money. It's just like buying a car without paying and using it for like 5years. It's not the same as it used to be then the seller is now pressurising you for his money. Of course you won't be keen on paying or fulfilling the promise


but if you see a car and the owner says before you can even touch this car much less enter it you have to do abcdef. Naturally you'll be eager to do it just so you can have the car


that's the case of the lady. If she had insisted that the guy has to build the house before marriage whether he's a student or not that one no concern her. As long as he wants to get married to her and if he's not ready he can check the next bus top

of which if he had even built the house it'll have been mutually beneficial sef.

from the look of things that guy is not willing to move out of there even if he has the money. Shiooorrr

My dear, the lady first find trouble. The family of the guy doesn't like her from the ononset.This is the first red flag, now, am sure they might not give two fuccs about what is going on with the marriage. I don't know why people don't plan well before settling down.The guy obviously do not care about her opinion In this case. Ladies need to get sense.One guy here say some Women get fish brain, the guy no no say some na jellyfish.
Re: Husband Refuses To Keep To Promise by SAMBARRY: 2:42am On Aug 24, 2015
Very true. At this point his family won't send her. That reminds me of what Tony said

That's a health risk already incubating and waiting to explode.

You say the guy is a graduate?

Please what does this mean? If i read correctly they did have a wedding(traditional and court),no?

What i see here is what they call entitlement princess,they only have one problem here and it's the house-she is a very married woman as far as i know.Does wearing a white dress in front of a priest promise a blissful marriage? undecided This is not a priority,a new accommodation is.

That man should move his family to a sane place for pete's sake,it is disgusting to make all that money and subject your family to such lifestyle. undecided

The husband promised two things:

1.Marriage Blessing
2.Change of Apartment

And after 5ys has fulfilled neither....

Hmmmm...

Apart from the failed promises, How is their married life generally? Do they have other issues?

If no, then
1. They should move to a more suitable place. That is very pressing and important.

2. The wife should forget marriage Blessing for Now. She is legally married before God and man. She can wait till their 10yr wedding anniversary and do an elaborate anniversary

3. The husband does not communicate. How did renting another apartment change to saving up to build a house without everybody being on the same page?

4. The wife should realize priorities & situations has changed. Five years and two kids later is a long time.


If they have issues, then they need to drill down to What they are.
Re: Husband Refuses To Keep To Promise by SAMBARRY: 6:36am On Aug 26, 2015
As e no gree move nko? And all reasons to make him change his mind has failed nko? E be like say the husband wey she marry get money bet no one spend am .awon olowo akagum. E do hand like union bank horse.

So what's the entitlement mentality in asking someone to fulfill the promise he made. If he didn't make any promises her hopes will not be raised high
