Young man, you have a serious marital problem indeed. First, you have alot to tackle, not just getting your wife home but also finding a way to please your mother and a way to forgive your mom's wife. As a married man, I have realized marriage is not just between the couples, the 2 families are involved (but could be limited if the couples mind their biz). Your mom has been offended badly and, u have also been offended by your wife n family . It maybe easy for u to forgive ur wife for the sake of sex , food, it baby or whatever but how do u forgive ur inlaws whom u much expected to be a role model? How do u convince your mom that your wife is worth living with? Do you kmow mothers feel the pains of their son in marriage more? By right, your wife has broken the whole bond but you chooses to remain in the marriage for one reason or the other so I suggest you complete the journey you have started by packing the loads back.to.your house. Accept playing the weak role, when you are done getting your wife home, talk sense Into her and indirectly give her reasons to keep away from her sister . You should also be bold to confront her sister's husband to warn his wife, she should leave your home alone for you.. (I just hope your wife isn't from my neighbouring state in igboland cos if she does, then you aren't getting any hope of change) Chukwu gozie gi. |

Adamummya:Just on point. First mistake; You involved third party in your marriage. Second; Owing your inlaw for a long time. Thirdly; You should have invited your sister to help your mum take care of your mother and not mother inláw. Women are usually so much attached to their mother that it will stair unnecessary comparism between her mom and yours. Of course you know the outcome. Remedy; First pay your sistèr inlaw her money, then you can regain absolute hold of your family. Your indeptedness to her is her ticket to batch into your home affairs as she want. Secondly; let your home affairs be between your spouse and you. Marriage is between two people and ñot two familïes. Challenge between two people living together is enough then âdding family would make it too much. Thirdly; leave your spouse with hër sister until you pay the dept. Your wife serves as colĺataral heŕe. It means you must do everything within your meañs to päy ASAp. Finally; you bring your spouse home and renew your union. Stop stayìng away very late. Gentle men don't do that. Then love your spouse at all time and give room for her opinion in your decisions. |

My tradition as an igbo man, if a wife leaves the husbands house on her own without the husband sending her away, she is not intiled to that house again until she brings her people and officially plead with u for forgiveness. if you accept her terms for the seek of the so called peace then be rest assured that you might not get the peace. i feel ur pain bro.....be a man

You dated her for 8 years & still couldn't read the signs her family is that way.. You seem not to be able to handle things firmly as a man should. They perceive this weakness & are using it to their advantage. Brother u gats to be strong otherwise u will be fighting domestic issues instead of fighting to bounce back for ur child. The real problem is her family although she has her faults too. Be a man, be firm , make decisions & follow through with it. Your marital issues should between the two of u except it gets worse before u might involve family into it.. How can she be reporting u to her sister & u see nothing wrong there.. U need to man up & take control of ur life & marriage b4 they crash u. And u said u grew up in a broken home. I am a product of one myself... Although i'm not yet married, i set the pace n take the lead & don't tolerate third party interference in my matter bcoz i know what it can lead to..doesn't mean i don't respect my partner. Btw check ur woman too on the sending nudes of her friend to a man... If she see's no fault in it then am afraid same thing applies to her. Bitter truth is If she's pimping then she can be pimped... And stop reporting ur issues to her sister or her mother what..what are u? A kid? If u must talk ,talk with ur dad or uncles or elder brothers but don't report ur issues to them except it gets totally beyond u then seek their opinion. You just give ur wife ppl body to see finish.... Whatever u choose to do, do for ur child's sake & demand ur respect it will help u later. |

I advise you Man Up and take charge of your home,you can bring her stuff back but warn her anytime she takes her stuffs and leave your house that will be the end... Yes God hates divorce but I can't condone infantile stupidity |

Your wife sister is the major cause of the problem in your home. Perhaps, you have put too much trust in her. I will advise you to try as much as possible to talk to your wife and if possible, change your current location to create enough distance between you and your wife sister. I pray to God to help mend and sustain your marriage. |

lowkey28:You are funny. Did you see the girl creating threads on nairaland that her marriage is about to collapse... No....cos she does not give a fvck about the damn marriage. The op wants the marriage to continue more than the wife so he may as well get his act together and go and their carry load. After all he is the one crying all over nairaland about his marriage |

SaudiBoy:One thing i was told during marriage counseling was never to discuss family problems with a third party. Obviously you guys missed the memo. Try to take your wife away from her family else what you fear will eventually happen. Both of you should stop discussing your marriage with anybody. That way you guys have a chance to sort it out on your own. If your wife had no where to go, she would never have to pack from your house. |
| Re: My Marriage Is At The Brink Of Collapse Help Me by Nobody: 5:24am On Mar 19, 2018 |
Bro, pay off whatever you are owing your wife's sister. This are women.. Their understanding of lending money to a male is bit weird. I lost respect to a girl that borrowed money in the past, not because i didn't pay her back but because of way their brain is twisted. Pay her back, bring back your wife in which ever way u want and stop bringing in family member to your house.. If possible pack out from where u are living and go far away from socalled sister in law. |

MrBottle:Well I hate marriage so I don't see myself getting one, If he wants the marriage to continue then he should keep acting dummy for the rest of his life. I advice him to listen to Lucky Dube -Woman. And listen carefully to the lyrics of the song. That should help. |

God will fix your home.. Yiur sister in law is your major problem anything she ask your wife to do is afar she will do... Tell your wife to stay clear from her if she still want the marriage... If the truck is still forsale am interested in it whatsap |

SaudiBoy You need to speak with her sister's husband. Plead with him to stop his wife from interfering in your matrimonial business and if she doesn't stop you might do something drastic. I feel like the sister has something against your wife. She wants her matrimonial doom and she is working endlessly to see that happen. Perhaps you could use that angle to speak to your wife, her mum and other family members. |

Op sorry oo. You married a kindergarten kid that doesn't understand what marriage means. She doesn't understand what it means to become a mother and doesn't have the maturity and understanding to run a house as a wife. Hence she needs to run to her sister for directions every time. Now the sis in-law is a stupid person. Before I go on, how old is the sis in-law? She must be a kid also for being that much stupid. Now, my advice, for the sake of love go and carry your wife loads. Before that, hold a family meeting between your wife, sis in-law and her husband and let her husband know firmly that if sis in-law repeats what she did by driving your wife away from her matrimonial home, you won't take it lightly with them. Tell her that she can't dictate how to run your family just because she loaned you money. Tell her she should allow her sister to grow up and raise and enjoy her family peacefully.Pay her back her money ASAP and never you seek any financial assistance from them again. When your wife gets back home, after few days, have a heart to heart discussion with her. Let her know how much you love her and the baby. But make it clear how much she hurt you by her actions. How she starved your mom and disrespect her. Let her know that she needs to apologise to your mum. Let her know she needs to grow up and be a woman and that if she continues following her sis advice she won't be able to raise a happy family. That you should be her number one confidant and not her sis. I feel like chatting you upon WhatsApp because I can't say all here. I'm married with two kids, so I can see what you are into. There's something more hidden that I perceive. O8i 65,35,97,46 decode it and talk to me on chat. |

I’m strongly convinced you know what to do! But your marriage will always have a comma! |

@OP,never keep three women under same roof for more than three hours. Having your mom, mother - in- law and wife all living with you is a recipe for disaster Go and pick up your wife, biko. Then set the rules. Too much outsiders in your marriage. Biko man up and steer the ship of your marriage. Deal with your marital problems internally. I don't see any big deal in your write up. |
| Re: My Marriage Is At The Brink Of Collapse Help Me by newoffer: 6:07am On Mar 19, 2018 |
Delete her from your memory. You enter one chance my brother. You will die if u don't run for your life. This is not ur wife. This is a normal Yoruba scenario. Forget her. It took me ten years to stabilize from this kind of family. Forget loving her. |

SaudiBoy:Bro, go and pay ur sis back her money, women work a lot with perception and your sis has seen you as handicapped. Even when you don't have bro, learn to manage on your own or using assistance from friends, if you were financially buoyant (or at least not known to be struggling by your inlaws), I believe they will respect you more. Also, avoid going there frequently and keep ur wife away from them. https://www.nairaland.com/4351460/lessons-marrying-rich-family |

SaudiBoy:Soft pedal on your ego, talk more to your wife and try to understand her more, your wife appears to love you so put in more effort to save your marriage. Move away from where you live now if it's close to her sisters. And NEVER forget your mum because of your wife or in-laws. |

OP.... post partum depression Plus wrong advise from her sister. I think u should go and get ur wife, let's put the ego aside. Pls fight for your home . She just wants to feel wanted .....oblige her and when she returns, give her as much help as u can afford (both with the house and baby.) Then subtly talk her into seeing her wrong... u shouldnt force it on her .this will take some time. When she sees her wrong, gently get her to apologise to ur mum...very important. Also ensure you pay up ur debt, keep wife away from that sister... she is toxic.this will be difficult. ..I don't know how you will achieve it |
| Re: My Marriage Is At The Brink Of Collapse Help Me by Jimtieen: 6:15am On Mar 19, 2018 |
Guy I've been there. Stay off your in-laws. Trust me, you're better off with your wife alone. And let go of pride in your marriage bro |

Broda u dnt seem to understand ure too soft.I know there's always two sides to a story so this your account is definitely not complete. Now moving forward, it's clear ur wife needs a break . she got married at 18 as u claim, she hasn't flexed life. She's def in need of a different man.as for her sister....she def has a weak husband so blackspot her.The divorce threat is a rarce, ask her for it ...insist you wnt it. Since u live in a big house employ a nanny tht can Cook, without saying a word to her.....I guarantee u shell cone running bck. If that doesn't work, the marriage has crashed. Move onI know the love a father feels for a newborn. But once u and the mum are in bad terms, shell use the child to get back at u. I know how painful it can be. Which is why its imperative u learn how to drop attachment to kids, afterall they're visitors who will forget you when they grow. What matters most is you don't dvlop a bp. Your wife would come and cry the loudest if you die. If she wants to bear the liability of training a child alone let her suffer herself. When she gets older shed realise how Stupid she was. Finally she can't drop ur child with her sister and take off. Youll be granted custody if you litigate |

OP, I am a woman,plzzzzzzz,dont beg her more than you ve done, if a woman finds a man that does nt raise his hand on her despite all u ve written that she has done, then she does nt knw wat she has. I agree wit alot of people saying she s immature. Sincerely speaking, if u beg her to come back, she wld always use packing out of the house as a tool to get u wenever issues arises.. I used to use breaking-up as a tool too bt wen my guy suddenly asked me to leave without begging me bak as he use to do, i ve since stopped talking abt it cos i knw i was nt ready to leave him atall but he was always hurting weneva he hears anything abt breaking-up. If she wanna stay in that marriage, den she wld have to use her head to tink herself, reallu, she does nt need any1 to even talk anysense into her. And plzzz, cut off al third party. |

My own opinion is that you go and carry your wife, not because of love or.anything, but because you shouldn't leave her with toxic influencers. Totally Ignore her that first day, and see if she will get sense and apologise. If she does not by morning tell her you want to have a word with her later in the evening and keep her expecting. Have a heart to heart talk with her, then move on to a tougher stance. Tell her even if she is still immature, in marriage she should at least pretend to be mature. Tell her not giving your mum food was the greatest disrespect, and she needs to apologise for those wrongs. Tell her packing out of the house at the instances of her sister was wrong, and you won't tolerate her leaving her own marriage again to come and destroy your own. Start taking control. Start making your decisions yourself. You didn't need to ask her permission to go pick your mum. Tell her " honey, my mum is coming over, and I am going to pick her up tomorrow". Don't open it up for argument, but only suggestions. Don't say " I am thinking of going to pick my mum up instead of her using public transport". |
