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.
You just say 'find a job', 'get back on your feet', like its something he can pull out of his pocket. Then what is the responsibility of a woman in this 21st century? A house wife that take care of the kids? Y'all forget the part that mentions help mate

God knows for someone like me when I get back on my feet, that will be the end. No human is perfect but you don't abandon someone really close when they're down. Instead convert that energy for criticism to motivation.

I agree with you a 100% but why is it that it's only when things go awry that you people remember that marriage is a partnership? But when things are good, you expect the woman to subdue herself and put herself under his authority. If marriage is truly a partnership, then he should also be able do basic house chores with his wife since she's just not there to serve him.
You are just a lazy woman trying to justify her laziness. Chikena

I think she's more like a bitter lesbian

Don't waste your spittle on her

She ain't worth it
When they don't have anything reasonable to counter with, they go personal with family attacks and attacks on sex life.

So what? I'm a bitter lesbian. Yes
Also a bitter wife with a suffering husband.
All of those are accurate. Now that we have gotten the 'facts' out of the way, can you two geniuses focus on the topic and tell me how it's fair for the bread winner to also be the home keeper?

Miserable Fvcktards. The truth does hurt you misogynistic asses don't it? That's why you can't stand me.

You're missing the point. There's nothing wrong in a woman supporting her husband temporarily in bad times and I'm very sure that your father didn't sit down at home, waiting for food and daily pocket money from your mom. I'm very sure he kept on hustling to get back on his feet till he did. He didn't get comfortable being catered for and I can assure you that OP's wife is lashing out because she might feel he's not working hard enough to get back in his feet. That's still doesn't justify her actions though
OK I get where you are coming from though nothing in what the op wrote signifies that he is not trying to get back on his feet, OK let's look at present economic reality of Nigeria at present as long as he is trying four months is too soon for her to nag and put up attitude or did he nag when he paid her fare while she studied, which in all honesty is the responsibility of her father. Let's learn to fear GOD O

My brother i was in your shoe's just last year. November to be precise my job was also terminated in the same industry. Once a woman sees you at home daily without enough cash to sustain the home it becomes a big problem. I will advise you do any of the following
1. Go into agriculture no matter how small it may be.
2.search for job aggressively but I doubt if you will see a good one in a short period.
3. Try to do your own thing , create something out of nothing..create and recreate something that will keep you busy.
4. Here is my e-mail so we could discuss further. ogedegbe07@gmail.com.

Thank you

Who wants to stand you?

God forbid

I'm not yet that jinxed abeg

The fact that you see nothing wrong in the fact that a woman who should be very understanding and sympathetic towards a man who has been taking care of her over the years and has now suddenly become the man's major problem shows how messed up your entire life is

You are being very naive. She didn't marry him while he was unemployed, so why should she suffer now? I'm sorry to inform you but all things are conditional. No woman wants a broke man. It's not attractive. If he wants a peaceful marriage, he needs to find a job.
U love talking for talking sake. Sometimes u talk irrationally. Be guided pls

@bold is your assumption based on your prejudices against me because of my 'bitter lesbian status' cool

I'm sure I stated clearly that I wasn't in support of any rudeness from the woman. But did you see that part? Clearly not.

She should encourage her husband and endure now... Her approach is really bad. My husband lost his job too and I can feel what he is going through. I know how hard I work and all I do is to lift up his spirits and make him happy.
When things were cool we enjoyed it together so she should support him as well.... OP ..brace up and believe in yourself.....get something doing no matter how small.

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.
Na there way. Thats a woman for you.
