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?

    1. The truth is she might be pregnant or may be trying to get pregnant either way it takes a lot of shine away from the woman.. if she is trying to get pregnant then she might be anxious already and stressed out... talk to her about these things and try to be there for her. She needs you now. Look into her eyes and see the woman you fell in love with and ask her what's bothering her. Cos trust me something is disturbing her.

    4. Start bringing a very attractive P.A to your house for about 30mins - 1hr,... let your wife know she's replaceable, show her traits of polygamy, show her that 2 can play d game, if she no longer wants to be attractive again let her see your very attractive P.A. one thing women hate is to see their man with another woman, we are on earth to live, be thankful to God and enjoy what it offers, tell her to better change her ways or u'll look elsewhere, don't listen to people who tell u marrying her for her appearance is a mistake, u r newly wed u have to enjoy your wife's body at dis your age, most nigerian women grow out of proportion with age, It seems her major goal was to get married, if she's pregnant u better wait cos women gain weight during pregnancy. Just to mention, if she's not pregnant u r in 4 d shock of your life, cos those her features will fade if she doesn't work out, u r still a learner, bsides stop complaining and start holding her body spray so when she gets out bathroom with her towel still on just go and caress her slowly and kiss her, while doing that use her body spray on her.

  2. I think you should still give her sometime hopefully she should change and also try to ask her what the problem is because most women are like that

  3. Its a lesson to be learnt.....never fall in love with a person mostly because of their looks....

    secondly, women...don't give up on looking good just because you are married. well, unless you want your hubby to find you less attractive as the day goes by and don't blame him if he begins to look outside.

You met her and after you married her she changed, may be the money she uses to maintain herself she now uses it to maintain the home. Give her money, looking good does not come cheap. This life sef, my own hubby is complaining my "akomi ti poju" (shakara is too much) another hubby is complaing of the opposite. Na wa o

  25. Are u sure this is not my uncle typing this thing. Well I will advice u through this forum uncle since u can't discuss it with me personally, please sit her down and firmly let her know your mind. That u go out everyday and come across beautiful women that groom themselves properly and that its a big temptation to you. Tell her " I can't have a beautiful woman like you in the house and go outside there but even at that please don't give me a reason to, I love u and I want us to be happy but you have take Care of your appearance for me" end the discussion by giving her some perfume, deodorants and some money for makeup, just to seal the deal and avoid her getting angry in denial...then kiss her and ask her what she wants you to change about yourself too...make sure you agree to what she wants too cos it could be that you're lacking in some areas too...if it all ends well, this well thought plot of mine is a great intro for a good fuck. I rest my case

  33. This is one of the things being heralded to our youths of today;don't fall in love for the wrong reasons(physical appearance alone),not that physical appearance does not good,it does but don't make that your major or only reason,now see,your eyes haff cleared :-p.

    My dear,you have no choice but to try and convince her to look the way you want.But seriously that alone was what attracted you to her?#GuysAreReallyDumb#

    ReplyDelete
  61. First of all you got married for the wrong reason. you were attracted to her physicality other than her personality from what you explained. Marriage is not just based on looks. However, you can still get your wife to return to the look you were attracted to. Try showing her pictures of before and buy her nice dresses you think will look fab and her and any normal woman should get the message. But as far as I'm concerned you got married for the wrong reason.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Chai! Ndo o?! So u didn't even love her enuf? U were attracted to her physically. Ok. Madam u too na wa u o! When he starts cheating now, na u go dey cry up n down! Maintain urselves all u married women, marriage is not d final goal in life. Look good, be appeasing to d eyes! Oga if ur wife no change, get urself a girlfriend! Shikena!

  63. for better for worse...deal with it bro! Pray to God and go for counselling

  64. This is one of the common mistakes guys make in this morden age,marring a lady for who she is not what look like....this is what happens to men who marry her because she is beautiful,when anything happens to the beauty things will start going the wrong way.I will advice you to keep on talking to her.make her to understand that you married her mostly because of her look.hopefuly she will change with time.goodluck.

  67. Hmmm,as a lady,married myself,I can understand from ur wife's point of view,especially if she's unemployed,u see I don't think she put on a show just to hook u,its either she's unemployed and u probably don't maintain her,or she's pregnant and pregnancy can really be a sucker on a woman's beauty and composure,u'd av to bear wit her if dats d case,then also maybe she feels she doesn't need to appeal so much to you anymore probably because there's often no audience,by that I mean no social outings,or she needs to av friends dat wud make her see otherwise,if u wife is social enough and can afford wot it takes to look good,wen she goes out enof and sees other ladies,singles and married alike,nobody go tell am to ginger herself

  85. Smh, looks like you married her for the wrong reasons then. Your love for her should transcend physical beauty.you are her husband now and it is your duty to lovingly help her change the way she looks. Have you tried buying her perfumes and makeup or treated her to a day at the spa?

  91. Bros, I feel sorry for you O... Thats what happens when You marry a girl only because of her beauty... U should have done some resaerch, and I think you kinda rushed...anyone can keep up an act for six months, even a year, even at that U cld have noticed something, a hint. Now U'r married ,U cant just walk out bcus she doesn't "Tush Up" anymore, we are in an era where ppl are too lazy to fix something once its faulty, U want to get a new one. Talk to your wife and tell her how this affects you, communocation is key. It would also be unrealistic to expexct her to put on a show for U 24/7 even after marriage, she don catch U, she can now relax, tell her to get back on track, but let ur expectations be realistic.DatShortBoi

  93. Try fit her into what you want her to be or rather how she used to be bfor u met her. Are u taking care of her financial need? Ask urslf all these and get some fragrance for her nd book an appointment for her to visit the spa. I tell my frnds often, if u love a woman so dearly and she aint doing it right..fit her into it. I do same for my partner, wen I want my partner to have a particular scent, I buy it nd also change 'd' toothpaste nd more. Trust me he or she will continue from there. So Mr. A woman needs good money to look good.

  94. Maybe you married her only for her good looks? Was there anything else that attracted you to her? You might need 2 search those other qualities in her and hold on to them oh cos trust, that good look wouldn't be there forever. Besides, think you should tell her how its really affecting you...most girls would get very insecure and slap the makeup back on and hit the gym instantly...and make sure you get even sexier too.

  106. Is she pregnant? If yes, then bear with her. Some women feel so terrible when they are pregnant that they find it difficult to take proper care of their appearance. Some can't even bear the smell of perfume and their husbands dare not come close if they use perfume. If she is not pregnant, try and have a heart to heart talk with her, but it baffles me why a man can choose to marry a woman only because of looks.

  115. The problem is that these days , applying make up takes more than just powder n lipstick. It takes concealer, smootheners,highlighters,foundation,blushes, eye shadow,eyeliners,mascaras, browliners, artificial eyelashes, lip liners, lipsticks, lipglosses..to name a few. Most single babes are motivated to do this everyday in the bid to look attractive but It tiring meehn..the babe don tire. Make she rest Abeg, she has achieved her aim.

  116. u are lucky that she is not dressing too good to attract other men. May advice to u take it easy with her. If U really love her for who she is not what she is better for both of u.

    By the way are u providing her with all the make-ups and extras to beautify herself. Take it easy borda. there is life after the tunnel.



    I wish I have such a woman.

  117. A wise man once said..."Relationships fail when we stop doing the things that it took to get them in the first place."
    It is a pity marriage is already happening to both of you in 6months..even more so the fact that you are fed up already.
    It is usually life changing for a woman to take up taking care of a man, home, herself nd maybe a baby on the way.
    Give her a break, am sure there were other resaons why you married her. Find those reasons, hold them strong and while showing her L♥√ cos of those reasons, tell her what she aint doing right.
    Every woman changes when corrected in L♥√. Mind you, it could take awhile. Goodluck!

  118. The reason you married her was all wrong, beauty fades but as for the body fragrance that's actually important and vital for every woman. Do your best and don't give up on her, maybe she'll come around. Love as they say conquers all :)

  119. vanity upon vanity all is vanity. Some writers made sense. To the man what makes you think the next one wont be worse.ever heard of from frying pan to fire? Guy dont loose your soul just to gain earthly satisfaction. Wife behave yourself. Dont be comlacent. You can stil be ethnic and stil look good. Man keep your trousers zipped. Mistresses dont allow a man scratch an itch with you. Which in this case is just about looks. Perhaps she finds fixing of nails and weavon painful. I do. Or mayb if she bleaches she cant continue coz its affecting her. Or if she was taking weight loss pills b4 and cant continue. Your predicament makes me think of the new bride of Mahmud Abacha. You in the south seem to have low self esteem you think hausa girls are finer than you. Just like the wedding theme the seemingly beautiful gals are not real. Its deep yet subtle make up. Cant you see in the wedding gown she looked plastic, strange with standing lash? Do human beings look like dolls? How come when u see them in ordinary life they are not so breathtaking? Its all good makeup done by foreigners or arabs

  120. Means your love is conditional sweets, how sad.
    I'm not saying that women should give up on looking good after marriage, my point is if it saddens you this much (as you only married her for her looks), just ask her to dress nice again or keep it moving. shikina!

    P.S- there was no where in this article that stated she is unclean. Nigerian can be very presumptions. Not wearing make up or perfume does not make you an unclean person.

  127. i think you still remember some of the things that she was using before, go to the mall and buy the things for her, you might not say anything sef believe me she will use them. And you will get ur once trendy woman back. for instance it was on the day that my ex bought a cream for me that i knew that the cream i was using is changing my colour....

  128. Beauty, looks, and all those outside things fade away. If u really loved her and wanted to be with her, u should have looked past the beautiful and sexy looks and focus more on the inside. Plus try to help her boost her self esteem again instead of complaining. U married her and u made a vow for better or worse. So stick to ur vows and try to know her a little bit more. Cos 6 months into marriage and u being tired? What happens when she starts having ur babies and gains a ton of weight.

    ReplyDelete
  129. I laugh, and here I am begging my husband to allow me use makeup and even paint my nails he refuse. Well sit her down and discuss wt her deeply I biliv she wl understand or better still call any of her good friend to talk to her too.

  133. right now i feel like slapping this fool for saying got married to her for her look. that is why i dont make up to go see my dude, i try to be natural except perfume i most use that. so if u marry me, dont expect me to start making up or dont complain if i make up. you have been seen me on make up and without makeup and u said u like both. make una no mind this idiot. he has been seeing her without make up before they got married.

  134. You married her for the wrong reasons in the first place. From what you've written, not once did you mention anything you liked about her other than her physical beauty which is not what marriage should be about."Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, But a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised"

  142. Its not a big deal guy,if she's pregnant den it cld be d hormones working,she may be feeling down most of d time coupled wit house chores n Co, get her what u love n I bet she ll wear them,my hubby does dt n bcos he always look good I make sure I always look good for him even with d pregnancy n all. Guess what? He appreciates d effort n keeps bringing in tins he luvs on other women outside I still look chicky wit my pot belly. So try same,it worked for me.

  143. Oga you have already made the great mistake for you to have married her for her looks cos even if she starts doing the makeup again she gon give birth and might probably not have time for herself her tummy might get bigger boobs sag and all that so you better start thinking of the inner things u love about her if not it might not last #okbye

  146. You didn't mention if she is pregnant. If she is, make up and fragrances may be a put off because of her state. If not, instead of complaining sit her down and discuss with her. State your position lovingly and work on it together and if there is anything you have stopped doing after marriage, shape up. It takes two. All the best

  149. Rubish! U prolly have pot belly like most men do but they want a hot wife. Can't u guys work out together. Take a nice run in the mornings it'l help u bond bsides geting fit. Drop her of at a salon n giv her money 2 get her hairdone. Buy her a nice fragrance as a surprise gift. Then u can open ur ugly mouth n we will understand uv tried then she will take the blame 100%.U must be a chauvnist cause this is how they are they blame their women. Iv seen people get better after they met a man they look in the mirror n hope he smiles at the sight of them. Urs got worse, please go hide somewher far away....mtcheeeww. N please guys look good for your wify too we are not particularly intrsted in fat, sweat smelling men! Start with the man in the mirror. If you look good then help ur wifi get ther if she already looks good n u do too then keep fit together. My love 2 all those awesome men n women.. Muah!

  152. Hello Linda,it seems most of your blog visitors dont read before they comment,una no get sense at all.the first thing that attracts you to someone is there looks and then evrything follows but if that fades away it becomes an issue and that is what this guy is concerned about,being married doesnt mean you shouldnt look good and treat your body good,afterall the body the is the lords temple.to me if she doesnt change after a year then move on,call the marriage quits,there is no point being married to someone that treats her body like trash even if she is the a god in bed or the queen of the kitchen,for a marriage to last long there most always be a spark and rythm.
