This is what happens when you marry for Instagram likes and BellaNaija pictures and posts Many women face similar things and it is pitiful I am sure there was at least one guy on her case, begging and begging but she chose to go the oil and gas way or another she broke his heart. Karma can be a real bish ![]() Whats done is done, pack your bags and leave, your husband has a long way to go with orientation and reorientation. |

benodihe: Typical Nigerian Even if the solution requires common sense, they tell you to pray Even if GEJ stole $40b meant to revamp our educational sector, they tell you to pray and fast for Nigeria Better tell her to leave , theres someone out there for her, waiting to pamper her and treat her like the wonderful woman that she is |

OP, you got carried away in the middle of the relationship without finding out whom this man really is. Second, you paid so much attention to physique and got married to him. I suppose you didn't check the traits in him. So, partially, I would blame you. Third, do you know that there are couple of irresponsible men out there who are self-centred and don't really care about the kind of life they live? I wish this man could change his behavior and show unconditional love towards you. It is really pitiful that he married you for his selfish gains only. You need to make a decision about your relationship with him. You need to think about your future and know what you truly deserve as a woman. Do not cajole yourself or your family thinking that everything would be fine with this dude. He doesn't really deserve you! |

I am sorry to tell you this,but 'for now' you don't have a husband . My advice,remain with your parents till you deliver your child so you can be properly taken care of to deliver safely and this will extend his grace to redeem himself .Give him that LAST CHANCE whether he will 'mature' when his baby arrives and if he does not mature then please call it quits......Because God forbid he turns your child into an orphan by infecting you with an incurable disease.You got to leave dear if he does not change when your baby arrives.Don't be scared you are leaving him to fall into another woman's hand because no woman will endure to stay with him with his current behaviour.Like I said let the baby arrive then talk to him using your baby's future to prick his conscience directly and that of his family indirectly and if this fails,kick him out of your life.You won't miss him afterall even when he was pretending to be a husband he was never around ,let him be a father to his child outside your life. |

The hand writing was there on the wall even before marriage but you still chose to marry a teenager thinking you could help him grow up... Are you his mother? Why do you think you would succeed where his mother failed woefully? Girl, stop the tears, stop the depression, take care of yourself, you need to be st ong for yourself and your baby! Push regrets to one side and become a strong woman! You are lucky you have parents and a job. Depend on your family for help this period till you put to bed. Whatever you decide to do about your marriage is your choice but focus on taking care of yourself and stop worrying about your marriage! Be strong for you and your child. |

author=90love post=39285908 I've dated my husband for 5years but only traditionally married for 5 months. .... .kpele o My suggestion is this, Right now, you are pregnant. This is the period that almost anything you do will be forgiven by ALL and attributed to hormonal challenges. ...perhaps na pregnancy hormone they even cause wetin dey happen sef So why not use this excusable oppurtunity to affect your desired drastic and permanent changes in the whole affair. .....Shaekspere puts it this way "All the world's a stage,. and all the men and women merely players" |

90love:All the signs were obviously written on the wall but you code to ignore them. He's handsome right? You might as well make do with his handsomeness, since you didn't think his non challant character and laziness, was a problem during courtShip. It nauseates me to think that a grown ass man would always run to his wife for finances while not doing anything worthwhile, that man doesn't love you one bit. The earlier you move on the better for you. You are merely a cash cow! |

commitcrime:You have said it the way I see it. My only plus is that she should be wiser now that she is going to cater for two babies and herself . God will strengthen you in every way. As for the man who refuses to grow up , continue to pray and nurture him. He will soon see the reason why he should be responsible. |

You are a very strong and practical woman. Ideal relationships and raising a balanced family takes conscious supportive efforts from both parents. You guys are a team and should start acting and working as one. Most times, you will have to sacrifice self interests to achieve collective goals. This was why at a point we were all single and acted out those self interests and got our fills so wanted something more meaningful and life lasting----Family. I think your husband has some carry overs hence not vibrating same frequency as you. He has got a problem that needs to be solved before he can ever turnout your dream man. His lame excuse of not having a father is lame,watery,lazy and fallacious. Even when I was a kid and needed a father my oldman was gone. It only pushed me to adopt the Vito corleone's, Sun Tzu's,Atilla's, Jim Rohns and the strategist Mourinho as Men to turn to. My sweet mum would have raised a very weak me alone. I've come to appreciate a kid needs both a father and mother to raise balanced kids. Let's assume you have made up your mind to walk based on your self interest and the safety of your unborn kids....Your husband of 5months problems will still persist. He repeats same feats he did to you with another....A cycle continues. You guys are team mates and should work towards finding a lasting solution to his challenges so you guys can have the best of each other. That his potential you saw and and had faith he would blossom is still there and will take a you a coach that discovered this talent to help nurture. You have been rendering him weak and encouraging his life styles so far. I look at your husband and found the man I would have turned up as if not that I made some conscious decisions and took drastic steps even when it wasn't for my own comfort. A man who don't spend time with his family can never be a real man~Don vito corleone. Create a library in your home and stock with the right books, get audio tapes and watch movies that add to you and use your woman power lure and lead your husband towards them. I've come to value and appreciate family and would rot in hell to make sure they are safe and happy. I wasn't this way at some point in my life! If I can change your husband is not an exception. Good luck. |

Women ar d major causes in family's poverty, suffering & backwardness. Majority of them sleep wit men other than their husbands, & that alone brings failure & disapointment to d man.

90love:I'm saddened by ur story. I pray God strengthens u throughout this trial. I think u shld go by ur signature 'live, love and learn'. U are living, u've loved but I think u avn't learnt. For goodness sake u were with this man for 5 yrs, I'm sure all these bad attitude of his shld av been manifest to u, yet u went on with the marriage. Although, it's probably the weak state u're in without any support from him that removed the web obscuring ur eyes. The way I see it, if there is no exaggeration or lies in ur story, this man most likely sees u as nothing more than an ATM machine, or someone to fall back on when he is penniless. The love in the relationship was only coming from u. Someone that cldn't be bothered abt a wife and an unborn child for weeks, I bet u if u die this minute 'God forbid', his only regret wld probably be losing a source of money. Wise up, life is too short to live in depression over a guy. I won't advice u to continue with the marriage if there is no joy in it. As a nursing student, u shld know many women end up in psychiatric homes cos of issues like this, I wldn't want u to end up that way. A life in depression is not worth looking forward to. Concentrate on taking care of urself and baby, pray to God for guidance& don't entertain his trying to control and spend ur money on frivolities again. I wld av told u to consult wt his family, but it seems there is little way there. All the best. |

I dont think we should continue to blame the OP for noticing his attitudes and still going ahead with the wedding. She admitted the mistake herself. We all make mistakes especially when feelings are involved. 2ndly, prayers alone dont solve all problems. It will be deceitful telling her to keep praying and everything will be fine. OP.. I can imagine how you feel. Sometimes in life we are faced with one problem or another. You have to be brave and make up your mind.. Concentrate more on your self and your unborn child. If you want him to change and be responsible, dont continue taking care of his bills. Its easier said than done but you have to be brave. To make omelette you have to break eggs! |

Don't opt for divorse, it may be worse, all you need to do is to focus on your baby, pretend as if everything is ok, stay with your parents, do your job to susstain yourself, behave as if you don't care about him, if he calls, answer with a soft voice but dont say anything more than, goodmorning, how are you, yes, no, ok, alright, dont quarrel, dont shout, sound as if you are very ok with everything, because he prefers seeing you cry, so proove him wrong by reacting differently. He would be thrown off balance because its not what he expected. if he asks for money, tell him you dont have with a good voice. Just ignore him for a while so that he will be the one trying to please you. The truth is that in every relationship, one party always try to be in charge emotionally and the more you build up your internal strenght the more you take control. Let him be the one trying to please you this time.....even if it means staying away from him for months. Try to build up other things that can make you happy, because people's happiness erode away when they base it on one source only. Dont divorse but make him realise that he has been foolish. In summary I'm saying you should consider doing the exact opposite of everything you have been doing and see if you won't get a different result. You cant get different result if you keep doing same thing all over...DONT FORGET THE POWER OF PRAYER TOO.....thank you as I wish you the best....and to other people here, atleast we have seen that the number of years we dated never determines how successful our marraige could be. |

I can bet you saw all these red flag signs in him during the five years you dated him, but like a stupid woman so obsessed about marriage, you took a foolish leap in the dark. You must live with the result of your decision. You expect us to tell you to bail out? Once you're in, you have to commit yourself to building it, no matter what you see. Work it out patiently on bended kness in prayer. |

90love:Hmmm... Good girls, bad husbands; good men, bad wives. God please give me a good wife cos I can't stand even ¼ of the stories I read online. Op your story is really heartbreaking. My doubt's about your story died the moment I checked your profile and read your personal text, especial the last line. It's a complicated case of insensitivity and ineptitude. Had you being in whole health, I'd have advised you to start raising your adult baby toward manly responsibility. Now that you are gonna have a baby and battling some health issues, better you stay with your parents for a while, let your husband learn to take care of himself. When you are finally making a return to your matrimonial home, set the conditions, he fully becomes the man or you back off. If he loves you, he'll change. If he doesn't change, then know that he doesn't love you. He's just using you to make his marital status"married" so he can be respected. Wishing you a safe delivery and a quick recovery. #ILoveAllBlacks. |

Fit2Rule:He won't change as long as she doesn't learn to LOVE HERSELF. She got what she attracted. She doesn't love and respect herself so she attracted a person who doesn't love and respect her. It is so simple. And even if she learns to love herself, he may or may not change BUT her life will definitely get better once she learns that her happiness depends on her attitude and nothing else. |
