Im sorry for your condition, but its obvious u have a greedy and selfish woman as a wife. Lord knows that i cant insult my husband cos of his condition. When u guys exchanged vows she forgot abt the part of good times and bad times so it is all abt her enjoying without remembering your sacrifice towards her. Keep the faith and hope alive God wil sure reward ur pains wt joy. remember the story of job.. dont loose hope. cheers

Someone once said that it's big trouble when the wife is the one financing the home while the husband is idle. Ogbeni, I really don't blame her. As a man, you're the head of the home and you should act as such, so don't come here saying you were the one paying for everything when you still had a job, that's your responsibility.I'm not justifying her actions oh, it's unfortunate that you are stuck with an impatient woman that doesn't understand what having your back means. Well, you don't expect her to have your back forever. What I'll tell you to do is to find a new job or at least get busy and get back on your feet. Please forgive your wife, she doesn't know what she's doing. Don't ever try to punish or get back at her for her unreasonable actions.
That woman is a disgrace. No matter the condition of your husband, insult is unacceptable. The wife's action is that of a wicked soul. You should not sound ingratiating at what is unacceptable.

Just a normal reaction from women. She is pushing you to get back on your feet, not to bow to defeat on job matter.

Wow... such a kind-hearted woman.

LOAD OF GARBAGE.

She's a self-centred pig who deserves to be dumped the minute this guy gets back on his feet.

Pushing him harder my foot. This is how you people justify CORRUPTION and WICKEDNESS on the alter of expediency. Her job as a wife is to support and encourage the husband till he gets back on his feet, not to humiliate and belittle him. Her behaviour can ruin a man's self-esteem and confidence. It is unsupportive and cruel, so stop trying to make out that she's some sort of angel giving him 'tough love'. She has zero love or care for him.

I am sure you are like the woman. Your guilty conscience won't let you judge the woman. Nothing justifies a woman insulting her husband because of his condition. Did she forget that it was through this man that she was able to complete her postgraduate degree? Your wicked and greedy nature did not make you see anything bad in what the woman did.
Guys beware of FortuneTeller, she is not a wife material. Mtewwwwwww angry

sit her down... Talk to her about it.. .... She's probably thinking you've given up on looking for a job.. And that you've turned her to the bread winner.. Explain things to her... She's a woman she needs to be assured things will go back to the way they were
I'm not surprised by this contribution of yours, you're a woman. If husbands could realise that women needs one thing to make home liveable and peaceful under any circumstances, and that's communication, domestic quarrels will reduce a lot.

I will suggest u need more patience till u get something doing.
Think on what u can do aside looking for job... With your banking experience u can find ursef with Microfinance bank...

Would it be normal reaction for a man to cheat since it is in them? It's not a normal reaction...some woman just have nasty attitude.

Do you know how many people in the US and UK have GERD? An employer would laugh in your face over this excuse. Only in Nigeria can such a disease stop someone from working. Get up lazy man and find a job. Support your family!!

Doctor! You failed to mentioned that GERD at some point requires medical surgery which he stated.
Re: I Lost My Job, Now I Am Losing My Dignity At Home by Nobody: 8:52pm On Jul 02, 2017
You should try to understand that I'm not justifying her. What she did is not right it's even good that she's in that position of helping out so she can see the kind of pressure her husband goes through on a daily basis. But let's face the facts, she can't keep shouldering the finances forever. I mean, it's HIS duty. That's how she'll begin to lose respect for him if she keeps feeding him and giving him pocket money when it's supposed to be the other way round. You that you're talking would you allow your wife to cater for you like this?

Please advise.

I was in an employment of a bank until recently when my employment was terminated.

When I had the job, I took my family welfare as my priory. My wife and our only son were faring good, I always ensure we do not lack the basic necessities. Meanwhile, my wife did not have a job then. All the house upkeep expenses including the cost of running her postgraduate program were on me and I felt comfortable bearing the costs as the breadwinner of the family.

After I lost my job in the bank some month ago, my wife got an employment with the state govt. With her little income, she has been able to assist in bearing some expenses, even she pays for fuelling our car sometimes.

The drama has now started in the house and our marriage is on the verge of breaking up.

Any little issue, my wife will turn it to quarrel, different abuses. Funny enough, she would be referring to the financial supports she has been rendering in the house. This is a woman that did not work at all for 2 years and I was bearing all the expenses with pleasure. Now she had only supported me for about 4months now and she's is misbehaving.

To my surprise, my wife maintains a record in which she records every penny she spends in the house including food items and fuel. With this, she always ask me when will I pay him back.

At the instance of a simple argument/misunderstanding, my wife would be boasting of 'I paid for this, I paid for that....' 'If not for my support since you had problem at work......'

Please advise me, I am getting fed-up with the situation, my wife had changed totally.

Hello bro.. Your problem here isn't your wife. What kind of advice are you expecting to get from this thread? Instead, you should have ask for a business you can indulge in which will no doubt regain your worth. Believe me, no matter how deep your wife loves you, she won't feel the same if she feed your as$ for a week...talk of months.

Strive more to secure another job and avert the drama that's about to play in your home. In fact, you might start losing your kids respect if they find out that it's mummy that's catering for the whole family.. It's natural. You're the man.. be the man..
ogbeni shut it joor! undecided even if she feeds his ass for 5 years, she would never insult him. You know nothing about love.

So if a woman helps her husband for a while when he is down and working to get back up its a crime, young lady no one has control of tomorrow, anything can happen, with the caliber of ladies we have this days marriage scares me, I pray not to be in op's situation but if I ever am in his situation and my wife can't help me hold the forte while am down when I rise we are over, of what use is a wife if she only lives to live off me and can't help in my darkest hour I weep for this generation GOD bless my mother she took care of my dad for two years when he lost his job and was doing odd jobs just to get by, too bad it's hard to find such caliber of women now who only feel entitled

It's VERY RARE for GERD to ever require surgery. I suspect he has a duodenal ulcer and continues to take alcohol, smoke, fake herbal substances and making his condition worse. If his ulcer is so bad and he is at risk of bleeding, let him stop paying for data on his phone and instead see a surgeon. This man has been unemployed for 2 years and is typing on a phone that someone is paying for. The lazy man is frustrating his wife.

Sorry about your predicament.
meanwhile make sure you're doing the house work she used to do when you were the bread winner.
These problems usually arise when the woman is left to be the bread winner and home keeper all by herself.
Can't eat your cake and have it.
If you're not contributing money to the family, take on the other duties in the house while she goes to work to provide for the family.
