Wait. You are still single and you are angry at your friend's wife?
I won't be surprised if you are the one poisoning his minds against his wife.
Married people should be selective of the friends they keep.

How will he be ordering her around when she is not a maid?

The same kind of insecure men who call women who depend on them "olosho"
are the ones also crying when they meet an independent woman.

She took him from the gutters but now he wants to become an emperor.
Well, he is free to go his separate ways but he will surely be bankrupt in no time.
So its now a crime to ask ur own wife to get u food from the kitchen don worry wat goes around comes around u call it order? Things fall apart

She is not a maid.
I repeat, she is not a maid.
Does your friend even have a job because it is only jobless people
who fight over petty things.

That's when both are in marriage because of pressure..... Pressure arising from poverty on the side of the man.... Pressure on the side of the woman to be a Mrs..

There is no strong thing anywhere.
From the OP's narration, the man has always been poor meaning the woman knew
what she was getting into.
If she had no use for him, she would have dumped him.

Only slaves submit.
Free humans collaborate or go their separate ways.
Make sure you buy an illiterate girl from your village to marry
or even stay single forever.
I don't want to see another thread about "my wife disobey me".

SMH
Only fools pay Bride price..
What is the essence of paying the bride price when I have to be negotiating who should be the head of the family with my wife..
Being a wife is not slavery but responsibilities to her roles in which the husband assist if it becomes overwhelming..

I have my roles as the husband too which I will never complain about..
No matter what pseudo education or Westernization teaches, I will continue to be the head of the family while she will continue to be 'neck'.
Never negotiate the leadership of your family. You are the head act like it..
I am not asking you to rule her but lead her. Every woman desires that...

If you jam correct "anybody can be the head of the family" lady, you will understand how null and void your point about submission is!!!

So helping him to get a job or making provision when the husband was poor gives her the temerity to be rude to her husband with reckless abandon

Being a wife is not slavery but responsibilities to her roles in which the husband assist if it becomes overwhelming..
There is no rule book for life. People are free to choose whatever they want.
The part where I come from recognize bride price but the bride's family never accepts.
If the bride price is the justification for submission, this particular man should be
the one cooking and serving his wife food because he is useless according to your logic.
Slavery is about coercion, threat and lack of choice. So my submission was correct.


I have my roles as the husband too which I will never complain about..
No matter what pseudo education or Westernization teaches, I will continue to be the head of the family while she will continue to be 'neck'.
Never negotiate the leadership of your family. You are the head act like it..
If for some reason you fail to perform your role do you automatically lose your "leadership" position.
What makes you a better leader than your wife?
I admit that some dumb women need guidance but so do dumb men and being incapable
of making sound decisions has nothing to do with gender.


I am not asking you to rule her but lead her. Every woman desires that...
If the bold were true, we won't be having this conversation.
In fact, the wife of this "friend" would have jumped to obey her husband's command.
I guess this false assumption is why many men are shocked and are having marital problems.


If you jam correct "anybody can be the head of the family" lady, you will understand how null and void your point about submission is!!!
I would not advise anybody I know to settle down with a lady who believes in "head of the family"
regardless of who she nominates for the position.
I prefer ones who don't believe in the head at all.

Well, it is simple.
Let him divorce her, go to the village and buy an obedient wife since nobody
is tying him down.

It is obvious that our expectations for marriage are very different.

If your "strong thing" has any meaning, please lay it bare.

She picked the man from the gutters and now he has the effrontery to turn her
into a maid.
He should hire a maid if he wants someone to dish his food for him.

Since he now has a job, I wonder why he hasn't look for a young illiterate wife that
will worship him.

My neigbor got married to a woman that is financially and academically ahead of him yes they started with love at initial stage she did everything possible to make sure the man suceed i mean everything she sacrify evrytn kudos to her, but the problem now is how the woman talks to the husband with no atom of respect she goes around telling people what she has done for the man to the extent her friends no longer see the man as anything .. The one that pains me was the day she told the man to go and dish out food for himself even in my presence, wen the man try to force her my dear come see insult from how she feed him to how she made him who he is,just because the man ask her to go and bring his food even dou the man is working now but stil the woman stil look down on him.. The worst she stil call the man by his name . The man is talking about bringing another woman that wil respect him as The man of the house.. This is a big lesson without money i dnt think you can control a nigerian woman .

You are so low in IQ. That you are educated does not mean you are learned. You went to schoo but school did not go through you. Such a low life scum bag.

So he can't go and dish out food?
I have never dished out food for my husband and he is not a small or hungry man. As a matter of fact even when I stopped working for sometime unless when we are eating together.
Once he finish eating, from the day one of our relationship, he will take his plate and wash, with every other thing he sees on the sink.
It has not reduced him from being a man and the man in the house that has my respect always.

Enough of all these gender rules. It has destroyed more than it builds.

Simple things like that are what endears your spouse to you but it seems like your friend is always trying to bring "I'm the man card" in his union like most of our men do.
The woman refused to dish out food, and she was forcing her?
If she usually dish out food, what made her not to do it at that time. Was she too tired or very angry over something?
Did he try to know what was her annoyance, rather he want to exert his right as the head by ordering her to do that. Somebody that houses and feed you?
Common, u guys are really very dumb sometimes. It takes so little to make women lay down everything they have for guys especially working ladies but pride will never allow you guys to see whats before u.
That's ur husband...can his parents come and u won't dish food?
No dey use ur one husband compare to us all biko..

Thank you
