Dear LIB readers; My wife changed after we got married

From a male LIB reader...
I met my wife whilst on a business trip to Abuja last year. To say she was stunning is an understatement but what attracted me to her was the attention she gave her body, watched her weight, smelt nice and was particular of her general looks. I married her nine months after we began dating and then everything changed. My once beautiful and trendy lady lost all that dazzle immediately we got married. She stopped using makeup and fragrance. She seemed to no longer care how she looked and for me that was one of the things I saw that made me fall in love and marry her. Now it appears all that has gone and it really saddens me. I feel like she used all that body attention to lure me and as soon as we got married decided to show her true nature. I've complained so many times but she doesn't seem to care. Its been six months we've been married and am already fed up and irritated with this new person. I'm no longer attracted to her. How do I handle this. What should I do?

Linda did you not see the photo prince jobless put on his dp? I think it's high time you stop giving irresponsible and thoughtless people a shine on your blog

Well said folks the bottom. Line is are you meeting her needs financially. When we get married to you men you stop forting the bill and still aspect us to look Good. Get her all the things you like and see if she will not change. Please who those not like looking good tell me.

You are stupid....you married her so look for a way to solve ur marriage problems, we are not the one so give u advice....did anyone tell u that good marriages just happen? Have you asked her if she has any problem disturbing her? Is the marriage all about you? From your comment it's obvious you have not even bothered to have a heart to heart talk with her.....marriage is not about the looks but character....if an accident happens to her Godforbid and she becomes disabled that means you will not stay in that marriage.....You do not love her for starters so this is just a test of what your understanding of love is.....ask god to give you wisdom...and am sorry for you if you start cheating cos you are just digging your grave for destruction...whether you men like it or not adultery has it's repacurtions

Linda I wanto send u msg private but I don't knw how to go about it

You deserve what befell you. I can't believe you married someone because of their physical attributes. Deal with it sucker.Be wiser next time and don't bother people with this thrash of a thing you call problem.Poor girl she got married to you thinking you fell in love with the whole package. Thrash of a man.

Anonymous said...

You are DAFT! DAFT BEYOND REPAIR! So you have the mouth to come and pretty much say you married her for her looks and you're not ashamed. You yourself had better not get a beer belly or gain an ounce of weight for the rest of your life. So what if she has an accident and God forbid, gets disfigured? This is how you will run. Ode! She trapped you into marriage my ass. You used your korokoro eyes to marry someone simply for her looks and body. Obviously you had no plans to stay with her through hard times or if her looks changed or when she gets old. It is people like you that women should be praying not to meet when they're looking for husbands. Men are so freaking two-faced. Instead of telling her you loved her I hope you were telling her that you loved her face, body and scent.

you are so shallow minded. men like u are the problem of nigeria. im so sure u are one hideous fool. who doesnt work out. u expect to look like a blob while ur wife looks like a 10. who do u think u are. are u prince harry. im not saying your wife shouldnt make an effort to look her best but it seems the only reason u married her was cause she was hot.she sef she make mistake.


men need to realise that women dont look good for them. women look good for themselves. so time to time she may not feel so up to it. an lay low. a real man loves his woman regardless.. doesnt care if she has acres of makeup on or not. change ur mindset douchebag

You married for d wrong reasons Simple. Deal wit it cos weda u like it or not u re married nd its forever.

Anonymous said...

You have two choices, accept the mistake you have made and deal with it diligently or work away from the marriage before there is a kid involved and it becomes more complicated. This just confines that u married her because of her looks, too bad!

Go and sit down joo.

mama said...

First and foremost, is she pregnant? If yes pls cut her some slack. Pregnancy makes u loose urself esp in d 1st trimester u barely av enough stamine to brush ur hair nt to talk of makeup.
If however she's nt then it just lazy, I was lazy after my 1st baby too out of shape and unattractive however d moment I heard my hubby calll me *orobo* I hit d gym fast. Men can be really impatient we ladies av to be @ d top of our game. Now my hubby is scared am having an affair cos of d attention I give to myself plus my obsession wit work out.

Unknown said...

My dear this is another reason for infidelity, when what attracted ur spouse to u is no more there..women take note and try as much as u can to be like the day u met him..not always tying wrapper with dirty armpit and undo hair...guy this is time for action,if she can't take words then act.buy her the fraglance and spray her if possible.take her to spa and treat her well.I believe she ll take it from there and remind her always to bath,let's see if she has no shame and moreove u ve to check if she is pregnant..pregnancy can most times lead women to the other side of them..and they ll hate fraglances with passion

Fammie said...

Try asking her what the problem is,
make her understand that those things were what attracted you to her that she should look good for you just as you look good for her

I just don't get why a woman will stop looking good for her husband once she is married. make him come running back to you no matter what he sees outside and that is not by looking all fattened and haggard.. Yeah I ought to love a lady by what's inside her but am sure I dnt want her looking like she is the one eating all the food in the house.

Lol am your husband...so long you will change. Am happy honey pie. Lolzzzz

Did you stop courting her? Some men stop pursuing their wives after they marry them. She will stay looking good for you if you maintain your pre-wedding wooing after the ceremony. Also join a gym and workout together and pay for her to go to the salon every week.

Oga , i can't stop laughing @ ur gist oooo! Am sure when u saw her and made up ur mind to marry her, u were saying all d fat girls shld go and die! Ur sense na ur leg e dey, 4 u to marry a woman bcos of her container and not her content. Sorry na ur middle name bcos u ll ve to live with it all ur life. Anyway don't give up, continue to remind her dat u married her make up and body spray and weight control, so dat she can keep ur wife alive 4 u.

I always wonder why nigerians can never give objective answers to questions instead of insulting the person asking the question, or the subject of the question. Look Mr there are still some unanswered questions, does she have kids now? Have u ever taken time out to take her to the spa and give her a treat? Your manner of approach to her new way of dressing might actually be putting her off, rather than complain, sit her down and tell her how its affecting your feelings towards her. Also make an effort to take her out for a spa treatment as a treat. If u do have kids now, better believe it isn't easy taking care of kids, the homefront, work, and still manage to look good. Back when she wasn't married she wasn't encumbered with all those duties. Women react differently to the natural chores that come with marriage, so cut her some slack and show her some love!

All this guys that complain dont even care 4 themselves either. Please try 2 look good and ask her to join you. Go gyming together and buy her nice stuff. Tell her nice words despite how she looks now n she"l prolly live day n night to welcome you looking beautiful with a tasty dinner and hot sexing. That's what hapens to we women when we are in love we want 2 impress our man. She prolly is fed up with you 2 cos I'm quite sure u don't touch her or smile at her quite as much but u no we women never really give up marriage. We no how to make it work + wicked nigerians will finish you without knowin how u were suffering...lol Love her 1st n she in turn will love you and herself also. Nd please don't be stingy cos brazillian hair or quality dresses n powders that won't cause acne no dey fall from heaven. Check ur pocket n give her treats you can afford. Please husbands same goes for u get a shave, n work out 2 cos no be only men like good things. We love hot n goodlooking men 2. Makes you think of fucking ur husband day n night. As we get older both men n women don't look same u can't stay 25 4ever but 6months? Habaa

OMG! I cant believe this guy, so you married her because of how she looks? LMAOOOO, E don be for you....Learner!!

Anonymous said...

I agree with you where you said looks are the 1st thing that attract you to people but still your an idiot no offence darlyn but see all that spark n rythm needs 2 people. Like they say it takes 2 to. Tango. After you love the looks you should get to know n love the inner being b4 marriage. U call the Lords name? Read the bible where God said men love ur wife. I hope a woman you love calls it quits when u loose ur job or mayb something's not right wit ur life or looks. Aftral there's no point marrying someone who treats his job like. trash 2 the extent of loosing it he might jst stay poor even if he is big down there doesn't cheat or the most romantic man. Please don't come here n insult other blog visitors. Each comment might have something to offer Dear Mr. Knowitall of course ur a man! Obviosly!. Idiot idiot idiot. Sorry for your future wife except of course ur views change. U sound sane 2 me. I like u with all that spark n rythm thing

well is simple wen she was a single gal she had donors, young guys who spend on her my dear it takes money to look good are u doing what ur suppose to do as her husband. since ur wife has a good sense of dressing and taking good care of her body it simply means u might be the one failing in ur duty to give her enough to be able to look good guys always like good things but most of them dont know how to maintain her.

Miami said...

Errr.... Oga!! I assume ur wife had a rich bf before she married u. he was doing stuffs for her and now, she is suffering from a disease called "stingynities of a husband" *singing* 'better soup na money kill am oh' U dated for 9 months, plus married for 6months. that one year and 3 months. it's enough time for a girl to loose her sassiness. ask urself this questions: is my wife working? do i give her enough money for upkeep? does she have responsibilities in her family? do i give her enough money for herself, after she sends money home?. if your answer is no to these questions, then u know the problem:ego, kudi, owo.
I recently have been saving money throut this year to change my car. and i have changed it. Thank God. but my lack of money has affected my dress sense in d past 10 months. i dey wait make salary come make i scatter balogun and konga... hehehe. cos lack of money to shop was making me loose my shine. so, take heart.
P.S: If she doesn't have ajob, help her get one or open business, so she can have steady income ok?
single girls out there, shine eye oh! cos marriage to a man who can't fend for ur standards can make u drop ur swag. if ur fiance is not rich enough, work hard before u enter house. so u can still shine.

Anonymous said...

u ave made a mistake in falling in love with her cos of her looks,love is not all bout dat.love goes beyond looks,it is deeper dan dat.the only solution is to sit her down n talk to her bout ow wat she's doing is killing u.communication is wat marriage is all about.

Anonymous said...

Funny how some women here are advocating the man should cheat, if and when he cheats the same women will voltron for the wife and rain down curses on him for cheating.
As for the man, you got married for the wrong reason, but then you should speak to your wife and help her change too.

There is actually no need to insult peeps dropping off comments. Everyone is entitled to his/her opinion. It is also rude to insult the person with the problem. Nigerians can be so rude!!!Before you know it, someone will say 'I am being down to earth'.(pfff!!)

To you the 'plaintiff', u can not divorce her because of looks. Though u married her because of that and much more....Look on the brighter side, she has got good character which is key.
I think u should probe further on what the problem really is. Be patient!!

You will be amazed what you find out.Pray about it also. There is nothing that cannot be conquered.

In as much as marrying someone should not be based on looks, physical appearance matters. So lets stop deceiving ourselves and own the fact that both partners have to look good for each other. However, Mr. u should understand that women most of the time have so much responsibilty (though most men don't understand this) when they get married that they are not able to do things that they use to do when they were single, so I advice you help her out with house chores, have a loving conversation about your concerns with her and make sure support her financially with the LOOKING GOOD BUSINESS. GOOD LUCK!

Well, you sort of had this coming for you. Look at all the shallow reasons you gave...her fragrance, giving her body extra care. Well, looks fade no matter how stunning. Get your values straight.
