Seeing your post, I quickly asked my husband if he'll refuse my food he said "why should I when it is very sweet?!" grin grin grin
@Op refuse your wife's food at your own peril.
But to your ordeal, I think your wife should have made out a small time to fix your meal knowing how hungry you were.

And God knows you better start praying earnestly for a man who is not a woman beater because even if he knows how to cook it is not his duty to cook for you and if he does , its just a privilege that you must not abuse.

Any act of abusing the fact that he knows how to cook might eventually leave you with swollen cheeks and eyes.

Really God knows

Like I told the other guy not every man is like you and I don't associate with men who reason like you.I am a realist and not an idealist so I don't need fantasy.I repeat I won't marry a man who is not domestic and believe me I am not going to shiloh because I have them(guys) already who have met my requirements.
madam,do I look like I care about you having them or not?,..and if you are indeed a realist then you will understand why I said what you are looking for is mere fantasy,..unless you are looking to settle down with a jobless/sit at home husband....I'm not fighting you,just waking you up from dreamland

I am not dreaming the men around me are not like that so it is your fantasy world not mine and if you didn't care then why call it a fantasy.It is a mere fantasy to you but not to me in my own little world I can see clearly to know that not all men are like that.

Why are you arguing, tricking and doing other nonsense with your Wife?

Be a leader of your household or else someone else will do it for you. Your Wife appears to be ready to assume that role.

@op
I'm sure the reason you seek people's advise on this matter is not far fetched. "You know you've messed up" and you expected your wife to do the needful by petting you to resume eating her food, right? Since the woman is strong willed and wouldn't apologize, you probably don't know what to do to save face because you overstepped your boundary by your childish tantrum. I notice somewhere along the line where you stated you settles all the bills at home, that gives you feeling of entitlement by over stretching your wife patience on issues. Simple matter that could have been handled in a matured manner, no you decided to act like boss tha you are, waiting to be begged. You know what, I think your wife has had enough of that from you. She is just watching you in 3D format waiting for you to do your worse. Just fall on your pride n talk it through with your wife man. No shame in it Sir. Don't allow the devil take a firm root in your home.

The last time I checked it is my life not yours I want a domestic husband,I am also domestic and we would both work.I would not do all the work in the house he MUST assist and we would both be working if that is a fantasy to you so be it as for me it is my reality.I am also a hardworking and smartworking lady so your argument holds no water because I do not go with the school of thought that it is only a man that provides.

Lotta kids here... The problem with NL is that youths far from marriage are the ones quickest to give advice on family issues. Same with virtually all sections of the forum.

Now to the Op.
I want to believe this whole issue is not about the food, but about the fact that your wife is no longer the submissive type she used to be. If I'm right... You need wits and not muscles to put her in place.

Double your hustle, spend more time developing yourself. Your being available anyhow, nagging over food might further reduce your ego, wch I'm sure it's the main issue here.

If you think she's cheating ( you spent more time explaining her movements on just one day than explaining why you didn't go out to buy food or cook on that same day, making me want to think this is about you not liking how she's to free), lay back, calm down and get first hand proof before you conclude. Nip such dangerous path ( distrust, cheating, spying and monitoring etc) in the bud soonest tho

Above all, I don't know the age difference between you and your wife, and how much each of you make or contribute to the family (both may be considered as contributing factors to your wife's sense of liberty), but above all, BE A MAN otherwise, you haven't seen anything yet

Go with your first instinct.

No food? You can sort yourself out.

No ring? Questionable.

No ring and daring you to do your worst? Bingo!

Yes. She is cheating on you.

What domestic roles exactly do you envisage your "expected" husband carry out?

I hope the guys around you/your expected husband is your contemporary in all ramifications and age mate. Even at that, I think what you wish for is some Chewing gum guy or some soft teddy.

Orthodoxically, it's an ideal man's choice to make, not you saying what you want your husband to be, except of course, you are his husband.

Your wife was highly insensitive in this case and sorry to hear that communicate what uspsets you and resume eating for peace sake I will stop everything I’m doing if someone I love is hungry why did she forget the ring though she may be two timing
advice from a probably experienced/matured lady..

op,
decision to eat or not depend on the kind of wife u av married.
some are sensitive to such.
u have stayed with 7 yrs, u should have an idea.
pls do not conclude she is cheating though cos of the ring even though its strange.

eventually two of u will iron it out, I believe.

Bro...I can understand if you were getting trust issues because of her not first attending to the urgent problem she rushed out the house to take care of. I can't understand why you ....who can cook....in your state of dying hunger... bluntly refuse to prepare something for your self.... but instead.... leave the home to buy something to eat. It must be that you can't cook period.... not even to save your life....or.... you have the mindset that a husband should never cook as long as his wife can move a muscle.Which is it? And why didn't you ask the helper?....seeing that she was left in the house ...alone with you? Bro...this is 2018......you need to update this your 1918 mentality.

Rejecting her food is not the solution. Two of you should sit and have an effective discussion like adults.

Discuss your fears, plans, future targets etc.

On your own part, stop being a perfectionist... nothing with flesh and blood is perfect. Appreciate your wife more and see the result.

Thank you.

Nlanders,

Good afternoon all, something happened of recent I thought I should make it known here. I work from home, cos my wife runs a daycare, though she's got two Nannies that work with her which means she gets to work at anytime she wants at times.

This fateful morning, I had gone to drop the kids @school and branched at the carwash to wash the car, on getting there, she called me that she needs to leave home to meet up the nanny and assist at the daycare cos the other nanny has not arrived, I said can you quickly make something for me to eat b4 u leave, she
said time has gone that she wont be able to do that, being a very understanding and considerate husband, I said she could leave, that I'll sort myself.

In fact she was so much in a rush that she had to leave our maid that follows her from home to work @ home cos the lady was still in the bathroom like she told me. It wasn't up to 10mins, maybe she forgot oo, she said there is traffic jam on the road, that it seems that fuel scarcity is looming again due to queue, asking me if that was the case, Instead of answering her question, I asked where she was going, because that wasn't the way to the daycare she claimed she was heading to. She said she wants to go and pick her internet modem she forgot @ fcmb bank. I was like, but you left due to the fact that you wanted to assist the only nanny with the kids @ daycare, how come modem is more important than that or the food I begged you to make b4 u left, she said well I just have to go there now before her modem vanishes, I said no P.

At that time, I was back home and was really hungry, am the type that makes food, but the hustle in January was hella much, the motive of having to do anything was greatly paralytic, I take care of all the bills, so I understand what am talking about, body nor be fire wood. So i called her later on to ask if she can come home to quickly make the food, work place to home is like 5 mins drive, she said she's been stuck in traffic that she would need to head back to the creche since she didn't go there at first, I was like no P.

10 mins later, I called to ask her something, she apparently was in a noisy environment, I was like, aren't u back at the daycare, she was like NO, I quickly branched at the market to buy something, in which Market wasn't even far from home, like 2 mins, at that moment, I was so angry, so I flared up, I told her 'but why are u doing this", all along the reason u left the house has not been met to the detriment of the hunger am going through now, I was like u know what don't bother, will sort myself, and she was like no P.

However, she had left her wedding band on the room table, though we both agreed that whenever she forgets her ring, she would have to come back home to pick it, so I quickly used the ring as opportunity to trick her home, I was like come and pick ur ring, u have forgotten it again, she was like no oo, she cant, I was like have u forgotten our agreement, I said just come home and pick it. 4 mins later, she bashed in, started yelling, I am sure its because of trust u have enforced me to come home and pick the ring, blah blah blah, at the worms in my stomach were doing takwando training at the moment, I just kept quiet, she tried to abusively hold my head acting like she wanted to pet me, I withdrew, next thing, she just hissed and left, saying I am not even picking the ring, you can do your worse. From that day, I have decided not to eat her food, 2nd reason I am posting this is regarding this thread below:

https://www.nairaland.com/1307880/not-eating-wife-food-punishment

Is my situation legitimate enough to deny her food? Cos it seems a lot of people are against refusal of wifey food no matter the situation, but i feel the situation here is different. Plus she has been remorseless about the situation, and 7 years already into this union, we have been battling the issue of her responsibility on food from day 1, old problem that I feel should have expired, so we can work on new probs. Brothers and sisters, your 10kobo is needed.

Sorry to say OP but u sound immature @ the way u are handling this whole issue.I dont see any reason why u have to even post your family ish on social media to seek public opinions.Your marriage ish is personal keep it that way. Her not being remorseful is because there is lack of respect or because she doesn't realise what her mistake(s) are..it also seems like u are a nag which could be quite irritating
