SageMK: Its possible. Maybe he took her for granted. I recognise an elder when I see one. You have spoken well. That's why its wrong to judge without considering both parties. Op has told us what he saw but he won't tell us what he didn't see or what he feels will make us not to side his guy. 9 Likes |

greatbygrace:God will bless you. My wife a graduate for UI with Master degree from lasu marries me. I only have OND. Her parent were finally buoyant than mine because the dad was an ex staff of chevron. 5 years ago when we wanted to marry, the daddy collected only 60 naira as dowry. They are not Hungary at all. From jss 1 to ss3 she use to board planes to and fro - FEGOCAL TO LAGOS. Meanwhile me I did not even know how to enter airport sef until we marry and she booked a flight for us. Apart from the normal quarrel, she had respected me all the time and never say any stupid things to me. She corrects my English at times but with love. She still cook my food with will even me use to complain sometimes to rest. She is gainfully employed and holding a managerial post at a company. People just assume anything. I have said it repeatedly, MARRY A GOOD GIRL. A good girl remains a good girl. A bad girl will only appear like a good girl if there are other things to benefit from you. 31 Likes 4 Shares |

kevin25: Crazy Macho mentality. What's the meaning of "Man of the house"? Why can't he serve himself? Or even cook himself? What's wrong with calling him by his name? Is his name not to be called? This entitlement mentality is detrimental to some African men, and is destroying relationships. 17 Likes |

LordKO:baba you nailed it .from the little i know about marriages ,disparity in income or level of education has nothing to do with respect ,RESPECT IS EARNED .Marriage is teamwork and each player knows his roles and duties and must be ready to fulfill this roles at any given time with little or no support from the other player (except in some cases).The fact a woman has a phd does not mean she wont cook for her family and the fact a man is a farmer does not mean he wont put a roof over his family and food on the table ,once you don't see yourself performing these roles easily then know it is not the right time for you to get married .It is painful many use income disparity as a yard stick to be lazy and care free and leech on their partners 8 Likes 1 Share |

Romantic love is not enough reason to marry anybody in 2019 and beyond, time have changed, things have changed, money is the petrol that fuel every aspect of human life now. Guys, if u are not financially okay to a good extent, I will advice u, don't go into marriage. Anybody pushing you to get married should donate at least 5million free gift support to you. Ladies, marrying without a job of your own or a viable business or handwork is an abomination today! I don't care your reason, I don't care if your parents are poor or not, if your parents are poor, remove pride and go learn a skill or handwork. You have no excuse to be unemployed as a lady desiring to get married in 2019 and beyond. Work! Work! Find something to do no matter how small! Your pussy is no longer enough quality to get you married to quality men, wake up! Stop giving birth to children without financial plans for their well being. It is not a crime to stay single for life! 9 Likes |

kevin25: Op wait! Wait. Just wait, okay? The younger, timid and lowlife women are the ones to beware of. It pains a man more, even to the marrows and to a man's soul that he brought out a nobody as a wife, brushed her up and made her somebody, then she disrespects him. This case in point as you paint it isnt that too bad. My thought: May be the wife at that point was exhausted and, for that reason, requested that the man dish his food by himself. In family setting, its no big deal for a man to go dish out his food himself, in fact it does not amount to disrespect. I presume that the woman cooked the food. Is it dishing it for his stomach that is a hard labour for a loving husband? SEE OP, TAKE IT FROM ME AND TELL ANY ONE WHO CARES TO LISTEN: A MAN SHOULD NOT EXPECT HIS WIFE TO DO ALL MENIAL JOBS AT HOME ALONE. IT SHOULD BE SHARED AND THAT IS WHEN THE COUPLE ARE IN 21ST CENTURY. TO TRY TO MAKE YOUR WOMAN SUBSERVIENT AND LABOUROUS, MAY BE THE WAY OUR GRAND PARENTS HAD THEIR WIVES DO WILL NOT ENGENDER HEALTHY HOME FOR MODERN FAMILIES. ADVICE: Let the man not always insist on asserting himself. Let him apply humility, it smoothens love and peace in the home. If the man had (perhaps foreknowing the way his wife behaves) gone to the kitchen and fetched the food himself without demanding that from the wife, perhaps the woman may have toned this way: "oh Darling, you should have asked me to serve your food na" In that way, your friend could have saved himself, his wife and their family this whole embarrassment. The good news is: soon their children will complement the deficiencies of either of them by rendering this kind of services... 12 Likes |

There are some brilliant people in the world! I also came to this conclusion via experience. As a man, always marry a woman who looks up to you if you wish to keep control of your family. A woman who feels she's your equal or better will NEVER respect or desire you...it is not a question of being intimidated by a woman's success, it is a question of biology. My only disagreement with your conclusion is the idea that it is only Nigerian women when in fact it is women in general. Nigerian women are actually the best truth be told, at least they try to pretend to control their natural instinct. Other races of women are insufferable. 5 Likes |

sassysure:leave the foolish boy He and this OP and the true husband of that lady, are all impoverished minds. They walk around thinking money begets respect, or academic qualifications. If you conduct yourself in a respectful manner, people will respect you, it is a given Women need to watch out for all these impoverished men, with impoverished mindsets. They want to drag you down to their level, they want you to respect them by force. These ones are not men, they are weaklings That is how I told one yesterday that my father was changing diapers and cleaning baby poop and he said I won't find such a man....if someone found my father, I am sure there are still men out there with sense, despite the overwhelming stupidity that permeates this site. I'm happy for you, that you are lucky to have found one. Some women, like the wife of this OP's friend, have not been lucky at all 24 Likes 1 Share |

kevin25: You are a typical timid man that is incapable of understanding that cerebral power is the divine order. I am a man, a real man and not a snow flake. I am such man that is not afraid of the devil and not even the Gods. But even as tough as I am, if I ever get challenged intellectually by a woman, I am humble enough to admit to learn from that woman. If she is more wealthy, then there is something she knows more about money that the man does not know, so what makes the man superior to the woman? His dick? His name? or his ego? I am of the opinion that Gender is a farce, and brain power is ultimate. Success leaves clues and if the woman makes more money, she is more experienced in conversion of intellectual and intuitive functionalities to material gains. So, the woman is absolute head of that home and the man should wash the fuccking plates or go out there a be a man and bring money and respect to the home and himself. Full stop to foolishness of snowflakes and weak men who think they deserve Glory because they were birthed with a phallus. Respect is Earned and Money is Key to any earnings. 18 Likes |

Macwrites:My brother some guys get issue. No lady will ever tell me she did this or that for me. I wash my clothes right from school. I cook my meals or I eat out! I don't even like ladies cooking or washing clothes for me. And today, washing machine is affordable. There are wash and spin machines of 40,000naira. I arrange and clean my house. Also, there are vacuum cleaners for easy home cleaning and manual dust moppers too. If u want to form man of the house, hire a housekeeper,I used to have one in the past until I was advised to stop for my safety, I use to pay her 20,000naira. These things are cheap now. Your wife or girlfriend shouldn't be your slave or househelp. You should be more concerned about her looking hot and young instead of using stress and house chores to kill her lol This op rant, me I no support this one 28 Likes 1 Share |
