Young man you are free to divorce her, she is a wicked woman!!!. Even when you caught her red handed, she still continued with her lies, no sign of remorse. Age plays a huge role in decision making, especially in marriage, imagine six years deduction!!! Many people are bashing you because lying has become an integral part of our culture, now, lie means nothing, but a way of survival for an average Nigerian. I can see your love and respect for her have dwindled,because you can never trust her, and you believe she maybe hiding other things from you. On your own part you were careless, you should have done proper investigation on her background before marriage. A lying mother can never raise truthful children, you can't give what you don't have. 7 Likes 1 Share |

dollyjoy: Well seems just everyone is hard on the op. Why I agree this alone does not call for divorce but from what I read above it seems op has been having issues with the wife which has not been resolved yet. That's why I discourage walking away from the problem and not talking about it. The wife did bad by lying and op might be wondering if she lied about this what else could she be lying about. Well op forgive her and try and forge ahead. She's the mother of your 2 children and has been with you all these while. Nobody is perfect. If you let this go and gain her trust, then and only then will she feel secured having you as a confidant. |

Hmmmmmmm This case typifies the fragile foundation on which most marriages are based . Nowadays, courtship has become limited to the intending couples. If permitted, most people will happily discard introduction and traditional wedding as they are are considered unnecessary inconveniences. In time past, marriage was regarded as a union between two families.. While the man and the woman are courting, both families embark on fact check, most times unknown to the two parties involved Cultural disruption has erased that time-tested checks and balance. Sadly, the only source parents have for obtaining facts about their in-laws to be is through an emotionally compromised ward . @OP, I just can't understand how you could date a woman 6years older than what she claimed without knowing she was lying about it. Courtship is a time for exploration of the life of your future partner from childhood to the present. What did you do while dating her? Well, let us not draw a hasty conclusion yet. You must verify the authenticity of her story from her family. If she is right all well and good. If otherwise, things will no longer be at ease. Nevertheless, you should summon a crunch meeting of both families. Many may disagree with this suggestion but bear in mind that some future events may require you tell the age of your wife. If her true age is actually 6years above what she is claiming, how do you think h er patents will react to such massive reduction in her age. Your parents will, of course query your sanity. Such meeting will resolve this knotty issue and, also, ferret any other secret that might lay hidden. Blames will be laid, apologies will be tendered, and counselling will be offered. But bear in mind that the final decision is yours to make. The alternative is to resolve issues with your wife, privately, renew your vows, bury the issue forever, and move on. This is not the time to consider divorce until all the fact is laid bare. But them it won't be the best solution. N.B: those saying 6years age difference does not matter are ignorant of the aging process. If the gap turns out to be true, it means when the man is 45years, the woman will be 51years. The contrast physically and physiologically will be enormous. So, OP, the task before you is to always see your wife as the young beau you've always known. There is a saying of my people that in old age a man keeps his wife because he loves her, or loves the children, or both; any other thing is regarded an unnecessary distraction. 2 Likes |

Fadamant: I think you're missing the point. People are not insulting the op for feeling bad but for rather considering divorce for a matter so....... Idk, I don't want to call it trivia because it broke the trust in the marriage but still.... What came to my mind first was people would divorce for anything these days. I mean it's not like he just discovered that she had a child before she married him. I know it hurts but please he should calm down small. Marriage comes with its ups and downs, this is one of the downs. This is not a case of the wife assaulting him physically or cheating. This issue can be resolved. He should sleep on it and probably have a sit down chat with his wife. Remember, love covers a multitude of sins. |

Ask her to confess all the lies she has told you. Just to make sure, do DNA test on those kids. If they are yours, just forgive her and move on if she is a good person. Out of desperation sometimes people behave irrationally. For you to not have noticed this is suspicious though. She doesn't have passport or some other document that would have required her birth certificate? 1 Like |

Does her n@kedness look different or aged overnight since you Now discovered the age discrepancy ? I think this is exactly the problem with Op quote author=Richy4 post=49831864]Is another girl knocking at the side door OP? Why is this an issue to you instead of the employers..? Do you now realize that she was older than you or what? is she committing adultery? is she not a good mother to your kids? Does her n@kedness look different or aged overnight since you Now discovered the age discrepancy ? What precisely is the problem here? This is something that could be overlooked when there is love.... People are different anyways.. but i can only have trust issue with a lady when I have an evidence that she is "running around" not something as petty as age difference.....If She like let her be 100 and claim 15 for all I care as long as she is a wonderful mother to my children and attend to my needs..[/quote] |

[quote author=chuksbogus2001 post=49832287]All those that comment didn't address the issue at hand .you guys are absolving the wife of any wrong doing making it look like the guy I not suppose to feel bad after finding out this.what is there are other things this guy is yet to find out.I expect people to first condemn the wife for lying to the husband .in fact she deceived the guy into the marriage.if the guy is aware of the age then he can make an inform decision . Now ,op I know u are feeling bad about this but you have to put urself together.has she not been a food wife to u? remember her good attributes and forgive her.

One thing is certain,this marriage can never remain the same. @OP It is up to you to decide whether to continue or not. It all depends on your level of tolerance. To continue first find out the truth,then make sure she is remorseful. But just so you know everything changes from here. Please be wise. |
