Dear MIMsters: Should My Husband’s Hypocrisy Be Ignored or Handled?

Dear MIMsters: Should My Husband’s Hypocrisy Be Ignored or Handled?

My husband is a hypocrite and one who has diarrhea in his mouth. Should I ignore his hypocrisy or should I handle it? This has been his character but he always apologises whenever I confront him. He would apologize and promise he will never repeat it and I will accept and move on. Little did I know that he had no plans to stop.

My husband comes from a family of 7; 4 boys and 3 girls. My husband is the first son but the second child. My husband immediate older sister is his confidant with whom he discuss everything going on in our home with, especially when we have a misunderstanding. She on the other hand, will then tell the other members of their family what he told her.

My husband runs me completely before his family members, then he will come back home to play the good husband before me.

He went to his sister’s house as usual and told her an issue my husband and I had between us a few weeks back. He said so many things about me even though we were no longer quarreling. I got to know this through my SIL’s housemaid who called me and told me everything. She advised me to be careful.

Everything she told me is what had previously transpired, so I knew she wasn’t lying.

Previously, he travelled to see his mum and discussed me with his mother. His mother called me and told me everything hubby said about me. I asked him but he denied it, I let it slide.

What surprises me the most is that, this hubby who praises me to my face is the same person who goes behind my back to slander me. He tells me that I am the best thing that has ever happened to him and that in the next generation, he will marry me over and over again. Why doesn’t he tell others what he tells me to my face?

The most annoying part of the whole thing is that I don’t even know what is happening in his sister’s home but everybody knows what is going on in mine. When this his sister’s maid called me, I thanked her and didn’t say anything. But when hubby came back and I asked him about it, he denied it. (I never mentioned who told me but everything she told me was the truth).

Out of anger, I insulted him and that his older sister. I called him names and said so many things. I told him to record everything I’m saying so he can go to their family house and play it all, that I no longer care.

Dear Mimsters, I need tips, advice and ideas on how to handle a man like my husband.

  • Sincerely your husband could do better.
    Why gossip about you? Why praise you to your face and slander you behind? Is he ok?
    Imagine things being so bad that your SILs househelp had to tell you and advise you.

    Personally I would zip my mouth with him, stop the quarrels and insults, work towards my financial independence and live my life for myself.

  • Please take Vicky’s advise and live your life for you. You husband is annoying the heck outta me.
