Dear MIMsters: After Being Treated Like Garbage By My Husband, I Finally Found Happiness But….

Hello Mimsters, please I would appreciate some advice on my marriage that has fast become a bed of thorns in my flesh. My husband has broken my heart a thousand times and treated me like garbage, but was I wrong to do this to him?

I have endured so much disrespect from my husband, he throws denigrating insults at me and gangs up with his nieces to talk me down. He cheats openly to my face and even brought in his mistress, who he claimed was a house maid. He doesn’t care how I feel and when I try to tell him that he is hurting me, or advise him to stop, he would simply insult me.

My husband ears a salary of over a million naira, but refuses to give me money. He provides for the welfare of his kids and their feeding, but money for my personal upkeep, he has refused to provide. I have asked for money to buy food stuffs in the house, he has refused to give me, instead he would buy it and bring it in.

I feel that he takes pleasure in killing my dreams, because anytime I want to start up a business or something, just so that I can have a little money of my own, he shuts it down. My friend and sister have been my source of income and support mainly. My sister helped me to start up a business.

We have sex periodically; once in a year, twice in a year, once in ten months. I am a Christian so I promised myself that I would not resort to cheating to satisfy my own urges. I am literarily dying in silence.

I do not want to walk out of the marriage because I fear that he might cut his children of their inheritance.

I have been in so much pain so I decided to break my depression by pretending to be a loose lady so that men can see me, get attracted to me and just maybe, I can find happiness. It worked. I met a man whom I didn’t know was married. He started liking me, bought me so many things and gifts and eventually, we had sex.

My friend visited me last Sunday and commented on how happy I was. I took her into my room and showed her the gifts he bought for me. I have not had sex for so long and it felt so good. I was finally satisfied sexually.

My husband doesn’t beat me, but he wounds me emotionally. I know it is wrong to cheat, but in my case, what should I have done? Why should he get to enjoy his life and I must continue to suffer?

Please advise me.

  • Just because he is cheating doesn’t mean you should too. He is making a monster out of you so please don’t let him. If you can’t continue then divorce is an option.

  • Two wrongs never make a right. Do not let him drag you down to his level. Please discontinue the relationship, it’s adultery. Try to build your business and take care of your self from there. Resort to sex toys if you need to. Be radiant around the house and ignore your hubby and his activities. He will be surprised if his behavior no longer hurts you.

  • D least u can do for him is to ‘Pray for him’ cuz two wrongs don’t make a right. Abstain for adultery build ur self with the help u get from ur sister and friend…
    Leave a happy life and he will begin to wonder.
    Thank u
