Ladies:can You Be A Kept Wife by adetoru(op): 3:42pm On Feb 19, 2010
Can you be a kept wife?I have a friend whose husband wants her to stay home and not work but has offered to pay her current salary and still give her the usual allowance.
Will you say yes to this offer if your husband asked?

Why doesn't he chain me directly to the tree in our garden? That way I can also bark to welcome him from work.

Mscheeeeeeeeew!

we dont have kids yet and he doesnt wants me to get fat but he wants me to stay at home, doing what exactly?

definitely sounds fishy to me. if we have kids and he wants me to be SAH mom at would have been a different case.

and he doesnt want me to get fat but wants me to stay at home watching tv and gossiping or what?

Typical Nigerian Man mentality!
Your husband wants you to stay home and be a housewife
so, that he would go to work every morning and achieve his own career
and be useful to the society while his wife stays home being an idle woman
.

MEN, I TELL U THEY PROMISE ALL SORTS AND BELIEVE ME MOST MEN HARDLY KEEP TO THEIR PROMISES, IF UR FRIEND LOVES AND ENJOYS HER JOB WHY SHOULD SHE QUIT WHEN IT'S NOT ON THE GROUNDS OF BEING A STAY AT HOME MUM? THE KIDS ARE NOT ROLLING IN ANY TIME SOON SO SHE BETTER STAND HER GROUNDS NOW, EXCEPT IF SHE SIGNED A PRE-NUP AGREEMENT BEFORE THEY GOT MARRIED. THEY NEED TO COMMUNICATE PROPERLY? EVEN IF HE IS BILL GATES? HE SHOULD AT LEAST ENCOURAGE HER TO SET UP HER OWN BUSINESS IF IT'S A CASE OF HER COMING HOME LATE EACH DAY FROM WORK, SO SHE CAN BE HER OWN BOSS AND AS WELL BE HOME WHEN HER HUSBAND GETS BACK FROM WORK

@ poster
too bad, you have an insecured man as a husband. and is also an indication that he is unfaithful. please don't mistake it for LOVE, a man who loves you will encourage you to pursue your career unless he has found out that you are the lazy and ambitionless type.

Put it in writing, hold your end of the bargain and I'll hold mine. Im sure i can find one or 2 things doing at home to occupy my time without jumping upandan in the name of holding down a 9 to 5 job. Funny enuf, if you had asked me same question 10yrs ago, I would have declined.

It would have been nice to get an update more than 10 years later on the fate of the wife. How long did that whole arrangement last? 😀

The important question.
Also; what was her salary as at when this proposal was made?

Would it or has it been reviewed over the years to meet her industry standard and inflation?
