edwife:Well said! I could hug you! Thinking that there are no good people... Well, that's just sad. A sad state of mind. I have met people that are good just for the sake of it. Not because they want to gain anything from it. It's their nature, pure and simple. |
allycat:Op this is another sound advice. You can try this and mine and see what comes of it. |
ANANABA000:I feel your pain bro. But what can you do? You are married you are married. E don happen. In all this I haven't heard the part where you talked to her about this her behaviour, or maybe I missed it cos I haven't gone thru the rest of the thread. Have u told her how her behaviour makes you feel? Does she know the extent to which her actions are making you uncomfortable? You will be surprised she hasn't the foggiest idea that you are this unhappy. She might see it all as being 'normal', after all, her parents were divorced for decades... She may not actually know how to treat a man. You should try teaching her. At least you have nothing to lose since you are already considering a divorce. By teaching her I mean putting your foot down on issues you dont like. Tell her you are not comfortable with her wearing jeans, that it disgusts you as the husband. Make a big deal out of it. You'll be stunned that she never saw it as big of a problem as you think. Insist she comes home early. Or call her to find out where she is. Put more effort into telling her what to do instead of sitting and sulking in silence. Insist on your way or no way. Many women may not admit this but they like an authority figure and this your wife needs you to teach her what a real family should be like since she has no experience of it due to her parents divorce. As per the sex thing. It's a pity some women don't value the power of sex as much as they should. You see them exclaiming "is sex food? " meanwhile cheating with another woman is the most common reason for quarrels and separations in families. They will be quick to shift the blame on the man and make him feel guilty about sex instead of preferring a genial solution where both partners can benefit. I can't tell you how many years it took me to sort out the sexual issues in my home but thank God for patience and understanding. You Just have to be patient in that regards my brother. You have to make sex a conscious act. I know this might sound funny and unromantic to you but we r trying to find a solution here. If her attitude towards sex with you is one of disgust or despising it, then being spontaneous is out of the question. Sulking and waiting weeks until you can no longer hold in the urge to have sex will frustrate the life out of you, trust me on that. That frustration is probably a major factor why u want the breakup. Don't let it get to that point. Let her know you have needs and these needs should be met 3 times a week (for example). I know it sounds cold and unromantic but you are already having cold and unromantic served you so you have nothing to lose. Setting a timetable will serve two purposes: it will ease the sexual tension off you and it will make your wife prepare mentally for sex. It might start out cold and uninteresting but the more you do something the better you get at it. Practice makes perfect and before you know it she'll get better at the sex thing. Whew! Didn't think I would write all this. You are not alone in your experience bro. If she's a decent responsible woman who is not blatantly cheating on you then it's most likely you can make this work. And if it doesn't work you at least have the benefit of saying "I tried all I could." Cheers. |
cionon:You don't need to answer everybody. The issue with putting your problems on a faceless and free forum is that everyone gets to advice you. Responsible and irresponsible people, businessmen, doctors, truckpushers, jokers, immoral people, children, single moms, divorcees, drunkards. Your duty is to sieve the chaff from the seed and take the good advice. My take. The man doesn't love you. He never did. You probably knew this and only stayed with him out of desperation or maybe financial /status reasons. You say you have already left the house. That's too bad. But I think you should move on. Stop thinking its because you opened up to him. From your story it's obvious he would have found any reason to leave you. Telling him about what your friend said about herbs is not enough for him to want to throw you out. He's just using it as an excuse. I think you are in the denial phase of this situation. You don't want to believe this has finally happened to you. I think you should start by facing the reality that he has left you for the woman he really loves even before you were married. It's good you said you have a job, immerse yourself in the job. Derive your joy from doing your job better and improving your personal life. Pray for him if you want bit more importantly pray more e for yourself and believe God that all things will work out for good. Stay positive like some people have said here. If he is really the one for you he will realise his errors and come back/call you back. If not then for goodness sake move on and know you will find a better person. Cheers. |

marshalcarter:You think he should have found out earlier right? You'd be surprised how ignorant some people can be. The third story though. Guy thought he was trying to do the 'right thing'? Hmmmm. |
LouisBERG:Rolls eyes. Anyway, I can rinse and re-use. And will quickly go out and buy another toothbrush for her. |
zaynie:In the light of recent economic changes I would say your financial figures are wrong. But all in all you have a good idea of the process. One or two things though. @bolded, not many ladies can afford said amount. And even if they could I think they would be better off using the money for more important endeavors like acquiring land, building houses, setting up businesses, etc. Why go through all the stress of freezing your eggs when you're not even sure what the future holds for u? How hard is it to get a man to love and marry u and give u kids (lol) than having to rely on a technology that in many ways has not been perfected? And where r u freezing the eggs? Our nigeria? For 10yrs? With our Peculiar conditions? Hmmmm. All in all I still think the natural process is still the best (and cheapest) way to go. P. S for those trying to compare the deterioration rates of male and female reproductive cells. Female cells deteriorate faster and ovaries are far more fewer than sperm. Laughably so. It's just the way it is. |
halfricanadian:You only release one egg per cycle. No matter how much blood is shed during menses. It's very very rare for a woman to release more than one egg in a cycle unless she takes certain fertility drugs. Every other thing u said is more or less correct. |
pinkiberry: Ujoan:The thing tire me ![]() |

ANANABA000:If there's no reason for this behaviour then it means she is frigid (doesnt like sex). Has she always been like this? Did it all start after the birth of her first child? Your answer will determine the next step u should take. |
A colleague sent this to me. Just wondering what we think. "Her Blood Is Not On My Hands"- The Travails Of A Nigerian Medical Doctor (MuSt read) I own a hospital in Southwest- (not Osun state Nigeria ...lol). I currently have about 17 patients on my ward each of whom I have admitted at several occasions through emergency. None of these patients has paid upto 30% of his/her bill. Some of them have stayed upto 7 weeks on the ward. I admitted and attended to them based on the fact that their conditions were life-threatening as at the time they came. I made their bill known to them - and they signed before they were treated. But there is a common trend, as soon as they felt relief and became stable they pleaded for their bills to be reduced - this I vehemently refused. About 4 weeks ago a woman was rushed in with Eclampsia having just convulsed while pregnant and she was unconscious. I promptly took her straight to the theatre without collecting a dime though i had informed the relatives of the charges - #120,000 for her operation and medications. They signed and I carried out the surgery succesfully. Mother and baby survived. Within the following 6-days they paid a total sum of #12,000 and they began pleading to go home for the child's christening ceremony. I looked at them with disdain. Till now, they have only managed to pay a total sum of #14,000. Another man who was managed for strangulated hernia has only paid 20,000 out of 75,000 bill. And the list goes on. Their failure to pay has made it difficult for the hospital to replace consumables and medications needed to manage other people's condition. In the early hours of today 1:30am, a woman was rushed into the hospital following delivery at the referrral center. Blood had refused to stop gushing out. I did a quick assesment and realised she would need more materials than the hospital pharmacy currently had in store. I could have my staff get from a nearby pharmacy too. However, the husband said he had no money on him and so did the numerous relatives that accompanied. It was indeed a familiar pattern. I decided to let them go. I referred her to a government hospital. Ofcourse they pleaded for me to help but there was nothing I could do. Few minutes after they left - just few metres from my hospital gate, she collapsed. She had lost a lot of blood. I rushed there and rigorously tried resuscitating her right there outside the hospital 2am early morning, but all efforts proved abortive. A young woman of 28years had just died after having her first baby. Screams, wails, cries ensued. I felt bad - this is not why i became a doctor. But her blood is not on my hands. Her blood is on the hands and heads of all the patients on the ward who can afford to pay but refused to - on the grounds that - "What will they do? Her blood is on the hands and heads of the government officials past and present who have made it difficult and impossible for workers to get paid for their work. But the government officials are not the target of this my narrative. It is aimed at those who take hospital healthcare and medical doctors for granted. Those (including myself) who emphasise that doctors should not put money first before treating emergency conditions. In emergency cases, relatives would go to any length through any struggle to get money. As soon as the situation becomes calm, they relax and then they refuse to pay. Last year a distant relative of mine was delivered of her baby via Caesearian section (in a hospital in Lagos- not mine). They were billed #180,000 which they accepted before the operation. After the surgery, her husband called me and asked how much I charge and i told him. He then began pleading with the management of the said hospital to review his bill. They declined. The husband being who he is, paid #120,000 and absconded with his wife and his newly born son. How he did this, I do not know, but i know that at the christening ceremony a week later, he had two cows slaughtered to celebrate the birth of his first son. Many times we complain of doctors who ask for charges before treating patients but no one has ever bothered to ask the doctors why they do? Doctors are humans too, we need to pay bills. This is our trade, our profession, our means of livelihood. We have needs too. We can not go to the market place with the ID showing that we're doctors and hope to get food items on credit. We need to pay our children's school fees, we need clothes , shelter etc just as you. Everywhere in the world healthcare is expensive, both services and materials are exepensive. Well we understand that you may not have money. The government should find a way. The government should find a way/policy that ensures that we get our money back after we have rendered our service. In the UK there is the National Health Scheme, in the United states they have health insurance schemes too in addition to Medicare, Medicaid. In Nigeria we have the barely effective, poorly regulated and massively corrupt National Health Insurance Scheme. Well i have decided to change the modus operandi of my institution. The previous one has not benefitted anybody. Henceforth if any one comes to my emergency room without a dime. I will not attend to. If such a person dies, the blood is not on my hands, its on the hands of those who have received treatment in the past and failed to pay afterwards. |
Ujoan:I quote her with the utmost fear an respect If she comes after me am a gonner. |
Dyt:Liar. I've read your posts. You are already a troublesome woman. |
Ujoan:Does your husband act like he is better than you? I don't do that. There's no reason for the comparison here which makes me think you have a deep-seated background issue u want to address. If u think the men in your life are acting like they are better than you then u need to show them that they are wrong. Not by being troublesome but by taking action and making great achievements. Inferiority complex is in your mind, no one can make u feel less of yourself unless u let them! Kudos on being a troublesome woman. I'm a gentle fellow myself, at least that's what others tell me. I do my best to treat ladies with the courtesy and respect that they deserve. A true gentleman doesn't walk over ladies. My not calling home is a habit I learnt right from my university days. My parents and friends complained often of my apparent lacadaisical attitude but eventually chalked it up to nature. It was my wife who taught me to make calls home more frequently. There was no ego or god complex involved. It just simply wasn't my thing. Even now I have to set an e-note to remind me to call home ![]() The best way to solve problems like this is to talk it out and make the other partner see how important it is to you. If ur spouse loves you(and to avoid wahala) he will change like am sure Op's husband is going to change after this episode. Nothing to be ashamed about, everyone makes mistakes. We only have to acknowledge these mistakes and learn from it to become better people. Cheers. |
