Go and slim down. Do not let people take you for our mother when indeed you are our wife. We love to see you exercise and eat less.
Mind and control your tongue.
Keep the house clean.
Be hospitable, how you receive our friends and families matter to us. Make them feel welcome by coming out to greet them, serve them water if there is no drink.
Dress neatly and smart always, look good for us.
Do not disrespect us, we want to feel respected even with our imperfections, correct us with respect.
Treat like a king, make us feel important and we shall treat you back as our queens.
Do not always claim right.
Be polite
Be quick to say “I am sorry”
Do not delay us when we have to go out together. Start getting ready well ahead of time and don’t keep us waiting because we can be very impatient.
We don’t like tension, make us smile and laugh around you and we will want to hang around.
We love good food, if you have to go to a catering school to make us eat well, please do.
We do not like nagging. When you make your request, believe in us to do it in our own time. No amount of nagging can change us
Do not belittle or gossip us to anyone. If there are issues that need be addressed, find a quiet time when we can talk, just the two of us.
Do not prioritize others ahead of us, Make us your number one; Not the children, your friends, your family or anything around.
We love sex, do not withhold it. Never use it as a bargaining chip.
Be disciplined and wise in spending.
Be our friend and stop acting like our mom.
We can be jealous, do not get too close with the opposite sex on Social media. Seek our consent before accepting a male as Friend.
Do not paint us bad to the children, help them love and appreciate us.
Do not leave the home and children unattended.
Accept and relate well with our family members.
Assist us in paying the bills, if you earn well.
Do not try to pry too much by reading our mails and responding to messages meant for us without our consent.
Stop snooping and stalking us on Social media, stop being suspicious of our female colleagues.
Stop answering our calls without our permission.
Smile always, even when you are exhausted from tending the kids. Constantly frowning will scare us.
If you need our help, ASK. We cannot read your minds.
Stop asking to know how we spend every dime. Just trust us and all will be well.
10 thoughts on “30 Things Nigerian Husbands Want And Expect From Our Wives”
10. Don’t be too quick to say “I’m sorry”. We want to be sure that you are really sorry. 31. Stop snooping on our phones as if there are treasures hidden therein. 32. Occasionally take the leading role in initiating and handling love-making. And learn some new things (styles) – we would not suspect you. You can learn from reading and discussing as friend – we know you talk about these things (lol). 33. Don’t assume that we should know when you are not happy with us, especially when you are not able to articulate the reason for your foul mood. 34. Make effort to love what we love… whether football, church worship, visiting our mothers, etc. Encourage us to do these things occasionally. Let us not try to hid them from you. 35. We look seeing you cat-walk in those lovely and sexy night gowns. Make us hungry and see the lion come out in us… Make I leave my other brothers to add to the list – We need this list to get up to 50! How una go give us 40 things and expect sey na 30 we want?
36. And the wives should contact the husbands before breathing. 37. Wives should also ask which men to greet. 38. Wives should wake up and worship husbands every morning. 39. Wives should bath u always. 40. Wives should equally take permission before eating. Anty Eya dt number 20 is annoying to me abeg. N uncle Johnson now added his own, so I decide to complete it. #wink
As in? What in the name of God is this. Some of these request are mandatory for any relationship to work but most of them and the way that they are worded makes me feel like some egotistical maniac wrote this. …. Ask our consent before accepting any male as a friend? common now!
Nigeria husband, the woman was never fat (maybe when you met her ) but you got her pregnant and ; there is what is known as baby fat. If you don't provide good and healthy meals for her during and after pregnancy there is a tendency of her being fat. Fruits and veggies are very expensive so you may likely buy bag of rice, garri, bread and all affordable carbohydrate to enhance the fat growing. Buy her treadmill and good meals she can keep fit and healthy too. She did it for your joy and peace so respect her sacrifices .
