OP you need to stop communicating with the other man.i am sure this is how your relationship was with your husband before u married him except you were forced to marry him.there is a way that seemeth right to a man but the end of it is destruction.you said your husband is a good man.talk to him.it takes effort to make marriage work.if you get too deep with this man,and eventually sleep with him,you would see that it was all lust and not love.
thank you

There's nothing wrong in needing and wanting all these things. But the truth is that it doesn't even matter. You are emotionally disconnected from your husband, and that's the only problem I see here . .. maybe you just have too many expectations from him, without accepting the fact that he is just not that kind of person.

The distance is not helping too . . . being apart has a way of playing on people's minds.

I know you think you love this other guy, but you don't. If you sleep with him the only thing you will feel is regret and shame. Don't even go there.

Does your husband know there's a high possibility of him losing you to another man? Or does he think you are now 'second-hand' and can no longer attract attention from other men? I'm asking because I wonder why he's not even making an effort.

You have an itch that needs to be scratched. You need to let him know that if he doesn't, someone else will . . .
thank you

I agree that am selfish, we all have tendencies to be. I acknowledge his sacrifices and I am thankful always. Asides providing for me,I need a friend in my husband.

Have you asked yourself what he needs, you think you are the only one that needs something. Have you asked yourself the challenges and pains he's facing and soaking up inside him, what have you done for him apart from sex and requesting for money. You can't change who you are, just follow the new guy if that's what you want. It's only fair your husband knows the real you. Don't pretend. My 2 kobo.

I know he has needs too, I'm open to do anything to make him happy, if only he would allow me.. because I said I am still offering my degree programme doesn't mean I have nothing to offer. I don't bring in money yet, but I offer constructive advices that bring in funds to us.I pray for us and am always willing to go out of my way to make him happy.... offering something doesn't have to be about money.. and I am not pretending, I love my husband and I adore and appreciate him, all I want is a friend in him, sweet compassionate man,like he used to be. Thanks for your opinion though.

You can't love your husband and love Mr. Telegraph.

He has been sweet before, he can be sweet again.

Except you tell me that when you go with Mr. Telegraph and he is no longer sweet due to life's issues, you would jump to Mr. What'sapp.

Lol, Nigerians and their hypocritical nature. Just lookat d men gesticulating up their like kini. Do not rush to comment, simply take a Lil while and walk in d Op's shoes in ur head then u can comment. Is it so hard to advise her on how to get her marriage on d right track? For idiotic fools that say women have nothing to offer, dat frustration will eat you'll up.

What the op is passing through happen, Infact if it were to be a man I'm sure he would have slept with d girl by now. Cut the op a some. Abraham Maslow wasn't a fool to include "Love and belonhing" in his hierarchy of Needs

so all you can offer is money? it's good you share the bills and that makes you feel that you are more of a woman than I am. One day I will share bills too, soon! So because I don't bring in money yet my hormones shouldn't function again?. I am living and it's a good thing that my hormones are functioning... just a reminder, this phase of my life and my want for emotional satisfaction does not define me, daalu kwa.

until then, now and forever as long as am living my hormones will yearn for what it rightfully need.. it suprise me to know that the only form of romance you know is the insertion of genitals, hahahaha, just like me, sis you lack!! when I will have to share Bills, I will, money is not meant to be eaten raw.. and am not trying to give my cookie to a broke ass, neither am I obligated to set straight this talk, just because your life's orientation is based on money,and just because you pay the bills, doesn't make you better than me.

Depends on who's asking.

The OP has the money however she's not satisfied.

Is money to meet one's needs important, yes. However, we are not one dimensional beings.

When we pass the survival stage like the OP, we yearn for other things which are also legitimate.

I actually dont support adultery, never! But I like your point, Many people rush to comment and blame the OP , whereas they would have done worse if in her shoes . its high time many realize Money alone is not enough, emotional closeness is important in marriage too, No wonder even the bible said " Husband's, Keep ON loving your wives. " it says " Keep on " which means an action that must continue or else she seeks it elsewhere.

Even some ladies blaming the Op do worse, So much for hypocritical comments

What? It's true na.

Nothing forces a man to sit up more than knowing there's someone else out there desperately seeking for his wife attention.

Men don't know that they have to keep the romance alive in their marriage too. It's not just the women that have to keep slim, look sexy and slay to keep their men's attention. The man also has to keep the fire burning for his wife too, however he manages to do that.

For some it's money, for others it's 'love and romance', for some it's even mad crazy sex. The key is finding whatever does it for her and working hard at it. If not, she's just a crazy opportunity away from cheating.

Thank you. African man mentality most times is that money is all, While women also make mistake getting married for Money whereas their heart is somewhere else. This things causes issues big tyme

Does it even end

I mean at what point do we stop yearning for something . . . Anything

I think it comes to a point when the woman just has to realize that she can't have it all, appreciate the ones she has, ignore the ones she doesn't and just accept the fact that the grass is NEVER greener on the other side

It's because she's not hungry. Her husband is already providing the money so she's searching for the component he's not providing.

Then this is what you ladies should be helping her develop - satisfaction and nothing else. Encouraging her desires will only validate her feelings for the Telegram guy, which is a very good idea if the end goal is to ensure she cheats on her husband.
My dear Ujujoan2 is even telling her to threaten the husband...husband oo, not boyfriend. Nothing I no go read for family section. grin

I'm sure even after the man starts providing this emotional whatnot, the next request will be for him to start helping with the house chores, because some women have convinced themselves they are Princesses with no Kingdom.

I can't mehn...

Woman did not kill my grandfathers and woman has not killed my father, it is impossible for a woman to kill me.

It's not a threat . . . More like a warning, or an advance notice.

Maybe he truly believes she can never be tempted, and him not satisfying her emotional needs doesn't matter. He needs to know that he's leaving her vulnerable, he's creating an environment for her to cheat. I think she owes him that.

I think you're getting it all wrong. It's not a game.

Believe me those feelings she's having are as real as it gets. She needs her husband to understand how his actions are affecting her.

My husband used to do something really stupid whenever we had a disagreement. And he did it because he could, and I couldn't. So I gently told him one day that I may not be able to do exactly what he does, but I have other ways to 'get back' at him if I wanted to. . . . And I gave him an example. It wasn't a threat.

Bottom line is that people need to understand how their actions (or inactions) affect their spouses, and the possible repercussions. Sometimes they don't really know.

Yeah . . . I guess that's what's worrisome about this whole thing. The fact that he can, because he used to, but just won't, for whatever reason.

So he doesn't thinks she's worth the effort anymore.

That's why I say she 'warns' him in a very subtle way . . . . Just so he's aware of the consequences of his actions.

True, one needs to learn contentment.

However, it hurts when you had something before and it is withdrawn suddenly.
