Someone sent this to the editor, seeking for advice.

Over to you wonderful guys.

Quote
Good day. Am sorry to bother you but I feel I have got to tell someone as experienced as you about my problem. And l have to make it as brief as possible, only bringing out the essentials. Well, I’m married with a baby girl that is about one year old. Though I’m not gainfully employed yet I am a graduate and I try as much as possible to make my wife happy and comfortable. One funny thing is that we only just did our traditional marriage last year March. All of a sudden there came a huge change in my wife’s behaviour. To the point that she started insinuating that I am having dates outside. Issues came to a head when at about seven to eight months after we had a “problem.” The problem like I did put in quotes would baffle you. Her grouse is that I should stop buying newspapers.

The same newspapers that I used to buy while we were still dating and she NEVER complained about, so why do so now? On this particular day that issues came to head, we (she, myself and our baby) were at her mother’s place. Her mother was there and heard all that her daughter said. I never did say a word. My presumed mother-in-law and her last daughter who is just in the final year of her study in the university joined forces with my wife to say so many things. At the end of the day, I had no choice but to leave the place. But before l left, my wife came to me again and heaped more insult on me. Till date I have discovered that my mother-in-law is in absolute support of the things happening between my wife and I. I have made some monetary payments into my wife’s account and notified her to confirm. But she never does notify me of the receipts. She does not call me. I do the calls. Sincerely speaking, l doubt if I still have iota of love for her. If not for my baby girl, I would have erased her number and mental picture from my mind.

What annoys me the most is when l recall what I went through all because of her. All the while that we were courting, my parents and siblings never approved of her. But I had to damn the consequences and went ahead with her and married her. All that we shared together in the past, she now has forgotten. I am mad, angry and pissed. What do l do?
Thank you for taking time to read this. Please I await your response, preferably through my email address. I do not want this to be published. She is gradually but steadily losing my love for her; l had never loved someone else before the way I love her. But I must say that she is giving me no choice but to re-direct my love to someone else that would appreciate and show same.
May God continue to guide you in your good endeavor to help troubled hearts.

This is typical example of how some women out there are betraying the Love most Men got for them !! Just look at that.. what could be her problem.. Sorry young man for this.

But i will suggest you talk with her like one on one in a polite way, if she will return from her Mother's place. Remind her once again what both of you passed thru before... and ask her what actually is going on now,.. find out from her what is her problems and so on.... from what she will say, You will pick up your next step. if she didn't comply to talk with you about it... You can go on and do what please you. Be happy first before you can make another person to be. someday she will realize what she have done to herself.

MONEY! MONEY! MONEY! I see the lack of it (plus no real love) as the problem... Man u made some fundamental problems but u need to remedy them by proving a point-be a fighter...fight poverty, become a huge success and ur mum-in-law would automatically change because she's the type that believes in money more than God while ur wife's the type who accepts everything her mum says hook, line and sinker...this is if u still want her in ur life... Patience and Hardwork spiced with prayers. Yorubas have a proverb which says a bad wife can be managed but bad in-laws are a no-go area. But God's capable to change bad to good. Meanwhile, more realistically' erase her from your mind so you can concentrate on planning ur future... Nursing hurt, anger and hatred would only inhibit ur own progress...concentrate on becoming a success man and shame ur adversaries....

It appears that you live with the girl in her parents' house, why is that? Well, my advice will be to support your little girl financially as much as you can by sending money to her and make sure you keep records. Let go of her to her parents, when she must have over stayed her welcome, the fight will be between her and the mother. At that time one of two things will happen: 1, She will come looking for you, or 2, both of you would have gone your separate ways. If 1, depending on her level of remorse, you might want to take her back bcos of your baby, but if 2, then so be it, after all it was a loveless relationship.
