My dear, to be honest with you marriage is not a day journey and note that whatever your spouse dose now will be times 10 when he marries you. Just honorable end the relationship. If he loves you like you claim he will not hurt you. My candid advice. *RUN

This story is a bit long but pls bear with me.

I met this man almost 2yrs ago at an event a friend invited me to. The next week, he collected my number from my friend and called me, we began talking from there and agreed to go on a date. He proposed marriage to me on the first date which I rejected. I told him that I can't marry outside my church and from the little I've heard from him, our life dreams differ. I decided to cut him off from that day and I stayed away for about 3months. Meanwhile he got my friend to introduce him to my sis, mum and another friend who happened to be from his place, I'll call her Grace.
He made them all aware of his intent towards me and my stand and asked for their help to change my mind. Grace became his biggest ally and convinced me to have another date. He asked that we date for a while and see if we can work out our differences. During the date I noticed he has a very hot and quick temper and he listens to gossip a lot so I do tell Gracethat I don't see a future with him but he was too persistent, Grace always had words of encouragement and considering the fact that for some strange reason, it was mainly married men always approach me for a relationship with stories of how they got married to a wrong woman and they are or are almost divorced, dating a single man with no kids was very tempting and I decided to give it a try.

He asked me to tell him everything about me so there are no secrets between us and I did. Starting from secondary school to that day, I told him everything, from my first kiss, the colleague who tried to rape me, my ex who lied about his marital status and disvirgined me etc. he did the same too and I felt a burden roll off my shoulder.

Few days later I began to notice changes in him especially towards my business. I thrive in a male dominated industry in a ratio of 9men to 1woman. He asked me to show him the pictures of my colleagues which I did, he also asked if they make passes at me which I said is almost inevitable but my boundaries are clear and rigid.

Fast forward to now. I noticed that whenever I drop my phone, he goes through it. Facebook, sms, WhatsApp etc. He even picks my call when I'm not close to the phone. He asked me about a certain colleague who cracks dirty jokes like how I rushed to get married (I told him I'm already married). I didn't think much about it.

He later began to complain about my partners and how I'm sleeping with them like the prostitute I am, called me an unrepentant liar, unsubmisive, manipulating etc. Said he regrets asking for my hand at all and he's just waiting forthe day he'll catch me redhanded so he can dump my sorry a*s.
I told him to end it now cus I'm fed up, family came in and I later found out that Grace has been telling a lot of lies against hoping to get him for herself as well as hate filled advises from some aggrieved friends who felt ladies from my tribe are no good and just there to "chop money". Apologies were said and received and we continued.

Another time I visited him and we had an argument, he gave me several heavy knocks on my head and I developed a headache and began to insult him which resultedin more heavy knocks. I broke up with him and left. Later my mum called him to ask why he laid his hands on me, he denied it swearing with his life. Said I insulted him and he lost his temper and insulted me back that he's sorry. He began to drop messages everywhere and I eventually gave in.

3rd incident happened on our way back from an event. He saw a message from a colleague he told me to stop doing business with cus he feels the man has his eyes on me which is totally not true. He flared up, stopped the car and was even threatening to beat me up. I came down from his car and stood by the roadside. He came down too and gave me the insult of my life in full public view and glare and told me to enter the car which I refused. I had no money on me and had to beg a stranger for money. By that time he was coming back, he quickly took a picture of both of us and sent it to everybody of how he caught me in the act with my lover on the road. He called me and said that if he must marry me, I must break my business sim card and look for a wife friendly occupation or sit at home.

He later apologised over it. Meanwhile he and my sis don't flow as before as he once called her a prostitute.

I want to call it quits but everyone around me feels it's a mistake and he is saying everything out of anger and if I'm patient enough, he will change completely.

I must admit that he has changed alot since we met but the progress compared to the timeframe and the heat I face everyday is nothing to write home about.

He loves me to a fault and I don't know if I can find someone who loves me like him but his other attitude is sniffing life out of me. Do I stay or quit?

My dear, I wouldn't have bothered commenting on your post if not that I am deeply concerned that you are about making the worst mistake of your life.
1. Please I want you to understand that you are God's special handwork. You are precious to God and he has a wonderful plan for your life including giving you a wonderful husband.
2. The facts you have presented is that of someone who is obsessed with you. The behaviours he has shown so far are indication of that and also signs of complex abnormality. Think seriously and move on with your life without him now you are not married. A better person who will truly love you is coming. A word is enough. Shalom

No 1 I will not blame you so much .. but so many red flags .. even if he his a billionaire and he raises his hands on you ..dump him for life .. because he his a disaster waiting to happen.. most time when you dump them the beg beg beg .. but when u accept them back they take a bigger weapon.. my dear no man is worthy of beating you .. I am telling you . I love my girl if she cheats or does something wrong I will never touch her .. I will just drop her and let her beg beg beg.. which is what every normal higher educated human being should do .. it's so barbaric to lay hands on another human being when you are not the law .. just avoid escalating the matter report to the police, cut all possible contact .. taink you

9icetoo:

I don't usually comment on this section but I will make a exception today to drill some sense into your head.
Yeah, I said drilled.
How old are you? Grow up.
If a man treats you this shabbily when he is wooing you and dating you, what do you think he will do when he married you? Change for better? In your dreams. He is supposed to be playing his best cards now and see what he is dealing you? Pfft!

He is an insecure man. If he feels threatened by your colleagues, then he isn't fit for you. Get someone with the confidence and ego of Jose mourinho and c Ronaldo combined. Someone with balls. Not a Sissy.

Don't blame Grace. You are totally at fault. You armed her with all the information you gave her and what allowed her muddle your mind with.

You don't love this man, you see him as an option because you your other options are married men. Love isn't all by the way. It's fickle.

Get out there, mingle, socialise, meet people. There are options everywhere.
And marriage is not the ultimate. I am happily married but that isn't the case for everyone. It's not a decider whether you will be happy or miserable in life.

If he truly called your sister a prostitute (I hope she isn't by the way and he shouldn't be doing that anyway) and calls everyone in your family when you guys quarrel, he will call you worse in front of everyone when he marries you.

If he truly knocked you over a disagreement, he will batter you like a rag doll when he marries you.

If you marry this dude or continue this relationship after all I have said and your story is true, then you truly deserve what you get.

Lastly, this is your own side of the story, I haven't heard his.

You’re happily married, that’s good. I hope if you’re wife starts flirting with her male ‘colleagues’, exchanging messages/texts, etc., you won’t complain. She flirts with numerous men even when she is in a serious relationship yet, you don’t want the man to complain? She only attracts married men because she has so many men in his circle, no single man will ever take her serious. Anyone that tried it will develop trust issues just as this one currently. Let’s learn to tell the truth even when it’s unpopular.

The trust in this current relationship is gone so, she should move on. But she should stop double dating in her next relationship if not, it might be worse than this one.

The things I discovered here is that your man is not Matured mentally to marry. I'm sorry to say this but that's fact.
The fact that he is 20 years and above doesn't make him to be Matured enough for Relationship not to talk of marriage.
A matured man doesn't work with gossip, you can listen to it but be Matured enough to differentiate between lies, gossip and Truth. Is easy and normal to be jealous but it has limit.
Insulting you in public doesn't make him Matured.
Fighting you or giving you a knock on the head doesn't make him a Matured man neither is it the best way to correct or talk to someone you love.
There's no trust here, he doesn't trust you and that's why you are monitored in every of your move, even your calls and messages are monitored and that's a clear sign that he doesn't trust you.
Again, permit me to say that he doesn't respect you as his woman or the future mother of his children.
Marrying him will only give you truama in your Marriage life.
Hoping that he will change later is a SUPER STORY.
A broken Relationship is better than a broken Marriage.
Once you get married to him, it will be difficult for you to enjoy your Marriage with him.

Maybe you're so shapeless & ugly ,cos i can induce everyone around ,even you believe these is your only chance of been with a single guy & such can not happen in ur life again, so against all odds you want to marry.
Your man is , insecure,possesive,immature, hot tampered & above all doesnt trust you ... i am a man i believe in giving pple benefit of doubts but if your description of ur hubby is true .... don't expect any change cos he will only upscale n give you much hell that you deserve in the name of love grin. just make plans with ur mom & grace to alway be there to save you. when the weddin iv is out invite us.

This story is a bit long but pls bear with me.

I met this man almost 2yrs ago at an event a friend invited me to. The next week, he collected my number from my friend and called me, we began talking from there and agreed to go on a date. He proposed marriage to me on the first date which I rejected. I told him that I can't marry outside my church and from the little I've heard from him, our life dreams differ. I decided to cut him off from that day and I stayed away for about 3months. Meanwhile he got my friend to introduce him to my sis, mum and another friend who happened to be from his place, I'll call her Grace.
He made them all aware of his intent towards me and my stand and asked for their help to change my mind. Grace became his biggest ally and convinced me to have another date. He asked that we date for a while and see if we can work out our differences. During the date I noticed he has a very hot and quick temper and he listens to gossip a lot so I do tell Gracethat I don't see a future with him but he was too persistent, Grace always had words of encouragement and considering the fact that for some strange reason, it was mainly married men always approach me for a relationship with stories of how they got married to a wrong woman and they are or are almost divorced, dating a single man with no kids was very tempting and I decided to give it a try.

He asked me to tell him everything about me so there are no secrets between us and I did. Starting from secondary school to that day, I told him everything, from my first kiss, the colleague who tried to rape me, my ex who lied about his marital status and disvirgined me etc. he did the same too and I felt a burden roll off my shoulder.

Few days later I began to notice changes in him especially towards my business. I thrive in a male dominated industry in a ratio of 9men to 1woman. He asked me to show him the pictures of my colleagues which I did, he also asked if they make passes at me which I said is almost inevitable but my boundaries are clear and rigid.

Fast forward to now. I noticed that whenever I drop my phone, he goes through it. Facebook, sms, WhatsApp etc. He even picks my call when I'm not close to the phone. He asked me about a certain colleague who cracks dirty jokes like how I rushed to get married (I told him I'm already married). I didn't think much about it.

He later began to complain about my partners and how I'm sleeping with them like the prostitute I am, called me an unrepentant liar, unsubmisive, manipulating etc. Said he regrets asking for my hand at all and he's just waiting forthe day he'll catch me redhanded so he can dump my sorry a*s.
I told him to end it now cus I'm fed up, family came in and I later found out that Grace has been telling a lot of lies against hoping to get him for herself as well as hate filled advises from some aggrieved friends who felt ladies from my tribe are no good and just there to "chop money". Apologies were said and received and we continued.

Another time I visited him and we had an argument, he gave me several heavy knocks on my head and I developed a headache and began to insult him which resultedin more heavy knocks. I broke up with him and left. Later my mum called him to ask why he laid his hands on me, he denied it swearing with his life. Said I insulted him and he lost his temper and insulted me back that he's sorry. He began to drop messages everywhere and I eventually gave in.

3rd incident happened on our way back from an event. He saw a message from a colleague he told me to stop doing business with cus he feels the man has his eyes on me which is totally not true. He flared up, stopped the car and was even threatening to beat me up. I came down from his car and stood by the roadside. He came down too and gave me the insult of my life in full public view and glare and told me to enter the car which I refused. I had no money on me and had to beg a stranger for money. By that time he was coming back, he quickly took a picture of both of us and sent it to everybody of how he caught me in the act with my lover on the road. He called me and said that if he must marry me, I must break my business sim card and look for a wife friendly occupation or sit at home.

He later apologised over it. Meanwhile he and my sis don't flow as before as he once called her a prostitute.

I want to call it quits but everyone around me feels it's a mistake and he is saying everything out of anger and if I'm patient enough, he will change completely.

I must admit that he has changed alot since we met but the progress compared to the timeframe and the heat I face everyday is nothing to write home about.

He loves me to a fault and I don't know if I can find someone who loves me like him but his other attitude is sniffing life out of me. Do I stay or quit?

Aunty insecurity is worrying this guy, abusive marriage in the making. From your write-up is obvious you’re not really into him, don’t let anyone dictate who you date or want to marry. He has the potential of being abusive when you’re both married, don’t ignore this obvious red flags and later regret it.

One word: QUIT.
Re: Am I Making A Mistake? by Jhayjay(m): 8:34am On Dec 17, 2019
Many a time, I really do wonder how you people cope with abusive partners, I mean, someone keeps abusing you, hitting you and you still have the mindset to endure, all in the name of "love". He even gave you heavy knocks on your head, yet you didn't see that as a sign to pick up yourself and run for your life.

You're not yet married to him, he's treating you like garbage, I wonder what would happen when you eventually walk down the aisle with him.
If you have ears, you listen, he's not meant for you, God wld provide you with someone who'd love you so dearly and not someone who would turn you to a punching bag, just because he doesn't have the balls to face his mates outside.

Peace!!!

It is called Jealousy. It is usually a sign of love. You are only jealous over something you deeply love
Its normal to feel jealous and protective of someone or something you love.

Are you endorsing his verbal and physical abuse as evidence of love

Madam, the signs are all over the place. Red flag everywhere. If you know what is good for you, flee from that man and don't listen to what anyone would say. Otherwise, you would be signing up for a life of unhappiness.
