This topic I’m about to discuss
scares me. It scares me because this has slowly crept into our society and is
gradually gaining ground. I do not
write to condemn anyone and I am not a “Holy Nweje” but we have to discuss this
one way or the other. A certain report says that women are overtaking men in infidelity.
I also heard over the radio that the rate of infidelity in married women has
increased in recent times. Up to 70%. I had been opportuned to meet a few free
spirits who were open enough to admit that they had cheated on their husbands. Some
I know were or even still cheating but the story always quickly changes to past
tense when you show that you do not support. I was able to deduce some reasons
why women cheat. Some of them are poor finances, job search, promotion, lack of sexual satisfaction, impotence, revenge, just for fun etc.
Financial difficulty is the
number one culprit here. I can’t think of a lot of women who would watch their
families suffer when they can easily use what they have to get support for their
families. This doesn’t make it right though. Wrong is wrong! But It is easier to
sit in the comfort of our homes and condemn a cheating wife, but the truth is
that I have never really seen a woman who goes into a marriage with the
intention of cheating. It is when a woman is in need that all sorts of men come
to her with promises of what they are able to do for her. A Nigerian proverb
implies that it is what a husband cannot give to the wife that will make the
wife look outside. It takes a lot of God factor not to fall into temptation
when one is financially down and especially when there is a child or there are
children to take care of.
I blame women who throw caution
to the wind and go the route of infidelity just to meet family needs. (All
those who trust in the Lord will never be put to shame, remember that)I also
blame the men who take advantage of a woman’s vulnerability. I mean, just help
if you can, help however you can, there’s a reason why God put you in a
position of help. Even if you are too randy to behave, just pretend that you don’t
care about that, we all know that 99% of you men care about sex. But let me
teach you a trick, if you give and give and give and give and give to a woman,
she may just feel indebted to you and one day, she will be the one calling and
asking if you don’t want a piece of the action. (doubt if this will work in
this recession.lol). Anyway, just try it, it works, but remember to give until
you don’t have any more to give, you hear? Mscheew. If you like give your life too.
heehee
Unlike men, a woman does not just
set out to look for sex outside marriage; there must always be a reason. Why will
a man ask his subordinate to sleep with him for a promotion? If she is not good
on the job, why give it to her for a few minutes of passion? Some men will only
give a woman a job in return for sexual pleasure. Why? I am really bothered. Even
when the woman tells you that she is married, you still desire her. As a matter of fact, there are men who get
aroused immediately they find out that a woman is married. (Ala, Madness). So when
a woman desperately needs something and the only option is to get down, she
does it. Even call girls have sex for a reason, money!
Some women claim that their
spouses can no longer satisfy them, if your husband can no longer perform,
ehen, it’s your cross my friend, just carry it. You sef should bring your libido
down. If you and hubby used to go two to three round in the earlier days of
your marriage, please cut down to one round the moment you start to notice a
change in hubby’s pattern of doing things. A way to find out if you should go a
second round is to just look at hubby’s face when he is about to explode. Don’t
close your eyes oh if not you will miss the clue, if he is looking straight at
you and still coherent, then you can even go up to five rounds, good luck to
you. If his eyes are half closed and he is still coherent, he can go one more
round, but my sister, if his eyes are shut tightly and he is saying things
like, “I’m going” instead of “I’m coming” hmm, he is really going and if he
makes it out of this first round alive, please gently hold him up, let him sit for
a few minutes then quickly make him some pap, thick one oh, add all the
nutrients like crayfish and soy milk plus sugar to help him recuperate and
reproduce some of the sperm he lost. Then, like my people will say, count your teeth with
your tongue and do the needful. Just step it down.
If hubby’s “something” can no
longer get up. I would have said use toys and all with hubby, the whole purpose
is to reach that climax, abi? You will reach it. But I think my faith says no
to it. There should be an exception though. I will find out from a priest and
revert.
For the one who wants to revenge
on her cheating husband, what makes you different from him, he cheats and you
cheat. Will that make him stop? I think not. “Vengeance is mine” says the Lord.
Do not do God’s work for Him. Most men including my Victor will say, “If I
catch you, you pack and go and if you catch me, you pack and go”. Sadly, this is
often the case in Nigeria; I know the story of a woman who always accused her
husband of cheating and wouldn’t let him be. She always screamed at him to
swear with the bible if he was clean. One day the husband had had enough of the
harassment and said to her, “okay I cheat oh and for that I cannot swear
because I do not want to die, but you, Innocenti oya swear with the bible that
you have never cheated on me” at that point, wifey started stammering and
saying that she was a Christian and was forbidden to swear with the bible.
Hubby refused to buy the crap and marriage packed up. This sister is not sharp
at all. So your hands were dirty and you were disturbing the poor man. Whatever
happened to “He who comes to equity must come with clean hands”?
You who are doing it for the fun
of it, I ask you, are you a Nympho? If you are, do you know that it can be
cured? Seek help fast. Do you think of the risks involved? If you do it for fun,
that means you will have multiple partners. Please remember that there are
several diseases that are transmitted sexually. You could put your whole family
at a risk.
Like I said in the beginning of
this article, I am not condemning anyway, no one is perfect and I am very far
from being perfect but one thing is sure, I keep trying and striving to be just
good. The message I am trying to pass across is that women should overtake the
men in certain areas, eg, sports, business, high flying jobs, politics etc
certainly not in infidelity. It is not in our character, the same way it is not
in a woman’s character to steal. A young girl who cheats on her boyfriend is
not half as bad as a married woman who cheats. In the case of the young girl,
it is bad enough that she is committing fornication and we will leave it at
that.
A woman holds the family
together, the woman is the neck that turns the head (hubby) to different
positive directions. The neck also connects the other parts of the body, in
this case, the children. Women, we pray and stand in the gap for our families. We
teach, guide and direct the family, how can you give what you don’t have?
It is never too late to retrace
one’s steps, most women have the tendency to commit adultery, and the power to
overcome it lies within BUT not by might, not by power but by the Spirit of God
in us. Try to fight it on your own and you will fail woefully. You have to live
as a woman with thoughts of eternity. There is truly life after here and my
bible tells me that adulterers among others will not make heaven. I say to
myself all the time “Amaka, you must make heaven” I can’t suffer here on earth
and still suffer after life. God forbid! I hear someone ask “Are you suffering?”
Before nko? The noise of generator as I write this is giving me a headache, the
heat, plus bad governance all these years. Are we all not suffering in this
country?
We women, all have a man who is
chasing us.lol A few tips to avoid doing it with him; (Lilea’s tips)
1. Don’t
drink alcohol with him
2. Don’t
stay alone with him
3. Avoid
romantic dates with him
4. Avoid
his office
5. Tell
someone who is spiritually sound
6. Avoid
chatting with him
7. Don’t
tell him your needs
8. If
your husband is understanding, tell him, if he is not, this advice is very bad
9. Keep
busy
10. Pray
like never before
Finally, guys please leave the
married women alone, help us to help you. We know you trust us more. Thank you
very much. We appreciate but just leave us please. We don’t want to do again.
Together we can all curb this
rising menace to our society
Heaven is real, hell is real, and
the choice is yours.
Amen oh!
ReplyDeleteGood one !
ReplyDeleteOh my God!!!! This is hilarious. I read all your stories my dear. Well done. Men, please stay away from married women! Help when you can, because you can, and let our gratitude be enough.
ReplyDeleteSo hilarious yet very insightful. Loving your articles gurl!
ReplyDeleteTrue talk
ReplyDeleteAmiiii, am loving this write up.
ReplyDeleteNice one Amaka. And I always say, who are the women that make up this statistic? Because most women claim to be good.
ReplyDeleteOby
Nice one! Very hilarious with lessons to learn. Thank you for not judging and trying to be holy nweje.
DeleteI don't judge neither do I encourage such but sometimes when you hear these peoples stories your heart might likely bleed.
When I see people who are fast to condemn and castigate I tell them one thing "don't ever say you have overcome until you have been there or faced with such". I pray God helps us to withstand this Wiles and temptation seen daily. Amaks! Thanks for this and God bless
Amaka, your advice is spot on! Don't give someone "access" if you don't want anything from them, simple.
ReplyDeleteHello love......good one!! Throughly enjoyed reading and laughed my head off. Your 70% statistics.....I disagree with.....the reasons could be more....marriage is a journey of many events..... can never be perfect we lean to deal with the issues that come with it.....keep up the good work girl I see this defiantly going places 😊😊😊
ReplyDeleteAmaka I honestly look forward to your post each day. I even smiled to myself when I got the notification for this one, and it was worth the smile.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful write-up, great advice.
And thanks too for adding "your naughty side" to the write up. It sure made us laugh.
Nice one! Easy to read, carries a strong message, hilarious yet very educating...You really need that subscribe button!
ReplyDeleteNice one Akaka,this IS a worrying stat. Like u highlighted,most women don't go into marriage with the aim of cheating......in fact I don't believe anyone does. His Grace is what keeps us all. Very sound advice at the end too. You go girl!!!
ReplyDeleteThe Grace of God is sufficient for us ooo
ReplyDeleteNice one Amaka, the avoidance tips are on point. Temptation (onwunwa) is too much. But the children of God shall surely overcome.
ReplyDeleteGood stuff Amaka more grease to your elbows and wrist so you can write more .... lol
ReplyDeleteWell done
ReplyDeleteHonestly mostly women cheat for financial reasons. It's not an excuse but it's sad. Really sad! May God help us
ReplyDeleteVery interesting read Amaka. But if a woman likes that "thing" well. She should be creative in bed. Mist men like it when you their wives are "naughty " once in a while. No be you get am wholesale? Abeg ladies enjoy yourselves now you don't walk with a walker .

ReplyDeleteGood one and the tips are so on point.However on the area of a spiritually sound person it should not be the opposite sex biko! May the Lord help and deliver us all.
ReplyDeleteAwwwwwww! You got me smiling with those skills of yours�� and laughing at same time.lol
ReplyDeleteWhen we learn how to tell our problems how big our God is, the faster our problems run away from us. The most important thing in life is to know God and let Him direct our footstep. Then His blessings in deuteronomy 28 will not pass us by. The yet to marry has learnt a lot.
Thank you very much Ma.
I like #8. LOL
ReplyDeletePeople who want to cheat will ALWAYS find a good reason to do so. Men and women alike. And they will cheat sober as well as drunk. They will cheat in their homes, hotels and offices. Human beings, by nature, are not meant to be monogamous (which is why it is a struggle, which is why people pray to be faithful ; which is why it is a basic marriage vow). If t were natural, humans wouldn't very easily feel tempted; they would love one person and not be able to love anyone else, not lust after anyone else, not be attracted to anyone else). Respect for our partners , if not our religious beliefs (there are non religious people who are very faithful) keeps us on the straight and narrow
