My mother-in-law left her home just to come & ruin the peace in my marriage. I'm so fed up & tired of this woman

Since I got married to my husband, his family keep demanding financial help here and there, just cos he happens to be the first child forgetting that he is now a married man. Him being first son doesn't mean he's going to carry everyone's problems in the family. The woman raised him & his 2 other siblings as a single mom when their father d!éd; my husband was 8 then. I think she struggled & sponsored my husband before God finally stepped in & blessed him with a good job.

But now she has been capitalizing on that, & they keep asking for money from my husband, forgetting that he also has a wife & a son. We've been married for just a year & a half. My husband might not be complaining, but I'm his wife, it's in my place to advise & guide him, which is very normal. We also have our own problems that need to be solved. I understand that my husband might be the breadwinner, but the point is that he is married too.

For goodness sake, I'm his wife now & my family also needs financial help; I also have siblings who need academic financial help as well. Even the Bible says a man shall leave his mother and father to be with his wife so they make make a lovely home. But how can that ever be possible when all these people do is ask for money? Now, She came to my house just to make trouble coz she heard I'm the one refusing her son to grant financial help.

I've tried to make her understand that he is now a married man & we also have issues, but she isn't willing to listen. Instead, she makes me feel uncomfortable in my own home for the past 2 weeks. My husband sits there & says nothing. Pls help me; how do I handle this situation? I mean Why am I his wife if I can't get financial help from my own husband for my family or at least direct or advise him on how to manage his finances? I'm getting tired coz this issue is really getting to me & to be honest, I might quit the marriage. I'm fedup already pls!

Permitting your daughter to work at a bar, club or brothel is the greatest disservice you can ever do to them as a parent or guardian. You are only setting them up to be targets and preys for a world already shrouded in darkness and a system designed to exploit them. G!rls into nightlife and high social life, mirror selfies from hotel rooms, shisha puffing, updating locations on fleek. I put this to you, NO GIRL working in such environments can outsmart men’s mercurial cunning. If she’s out ...

After less than four years of marriage, I left my controlling husband and knew I’d done the right thing. We have a toddler and, recently, when he visited me to see our daughter, he told me he was going to marry again. It felt as if he was leaving me behind. Sadly, I haven’t been able to move on. I still wear my wedding ring and one of our wedding pictures is still on display in my flat, and I’ve never had another relationship. why am I wasting my life?...

There is this man who began chatting with me around April. The man is handsome and with money. He began showering me with nice messages and slowly graduated to gifts. We hadn' t met but finally we met and I liked him more. Slowly we began planning on some romantic out and finally we booked a hotel out of town. I took myself there, weekend daytime. I had lied to my husband am going to visit a cousin of mine who lives there. We got to the hotel and went to the room. We showered and we got to b...

I am Digidi Dunhill from Orlu, Imo State. I have been a single father for 11 years. Honestly, it hasn’t been a rosy experience. My ex-wife and I had misunderstandings and decided to separate. Initially, we considered splitting the kids between us, but we realised that dividing them might affect their bond as brothers. So, I decided to take custody of all the children. My ex-wife isn’t a bad person. The recent interview circulating everywhere portrayed her as neglectful, but that’s not true...

I got married over a year ago after being with my partner for just six months. He is over 10 years older and wanted to get married because he wanted a family as soon as possible. But I didn’t get pregnant, even after fertility treatment. My husband’s sperm count is a bit low, but not as low as not to make me pregnant. However, the problem now is that I’ve realised I’m no longer in love with him, and I think it’s wrong to have a baby if there’s no love left....

Hi. I need help in addressing this issue. My husband and I work at the same place. Recently I have been hearing roamers that he is going out with one lady at our workplace. I called him and asked him and he just brushed it off jokingly. Recently I have noticed the lady calls him when he is off. Break time at work I see both of them together talking and laughing and at times I even pass by them without saying anything. Also this lady when she sees me alone , she frowns her face at me as if she ha...
