Dear MIMsters: My Husband Behaved Like a Monster to Me Until This Happened

I read a post where a hardworking woman complained about her husband who treats her badly because she is financially buoyant than he is. In my case, the reverse was the case. My husband was a monster to me until something happened.

I’m writing this because of some women who like the idea of getting married to a man who is doing better financially than they are.
My dear sis, please if it’s possible to get a man who doesn’t have as much as you do, then you are on the safe side. In the post, I remember this Mimster said that her hubby doesn’t cheat nor does he physically abuse her.
Dear Mimsters, my monthly paycheck back then was N15,000 while hubby earned almost N250,000 monthly. I was humiliated, the beating I received wasn’t a joke from hubby who weighs over 100 kg and  6.3ft tall.
After being beaten, I would be so sick for days due to body ache and pains. His siblings would call to curse me out. They would say to me, “prostitute, don’t kill my brother with sex, goat” and other unimaginable names and I dare not say a word.
He would sleep around with any available babe irrespective of their relationship with me. I was kicked out of the house late at night with a year old baby. Sincerely, I can’t count all the evil things my hubby did to me. He and his family tormented my life.
A few year later, I got a job, I was wowed. My paycheck doubled his by a 100% monthly, and the tables were turned. My husband became a different person who would fight anyone fighting with me. He now practically wants me to make all the decisions in the house. He openly told me his actual paycheck for the first time even though I have no interest in knowing. In fact, cheating isn’t his thing anymore since I no longer request for a dime from him. And his family member now want to be my best friend. I mean these people who wanted me to do the house chores in their homes when I had nothing are now the ones who have turn around to come do house chores for me.
The most annoying sister-in-law who embarrassed me at family gatherings now greets me even before I open my mouth to greet her.
Though, getting married to a man who is more buoyant than you are, or who isn’t financially buoyant at all doesn’t really matter in my own opinion. You just have to look before you leap. The best is to marry someone who isn’t doing better than you, because you alone got your back just in case he decides to walk away.
I’m enjoying my marriage big time now as I don’t have to wait on him for anything. Though, I hope and pray I get better financially because if anything goes wrong with my finance, my hubby might end up becoming the monster that he used to be.
