Temie Speaks: Husband or Sperm Donor???

Back in the days, women (our mothers) would do anything to keep their marriages and strive to make it work. They endured a lot of hardship just to remain married. Some did it because of their children, others might have endured because they needed to remain Mrs.Somebody.  Whatever their reasons might have been, these strong super women stayed married no matter the cost. Their husbands (our fathers) were either cheats or physical and verbal abusers, or all of the above, you name it. Women back in those days might be independent and successful but they never owned up to it as many gave up all they had to get a man out of fear that they might not be able to get a man otherwise. They did not want him to get intimidated by their car(s), job, house and any other form of accomplishment.  Some women, who were not strong enough to endure, got divorced as expected. The others continue to persevere even till this very moment. You know them, our mothers, and older aunties. Personally, I did

A Good Woman

By allowing you play video games with your boys or joins you, she doesn't complain you are too addicted to football, instead she supports your team and share every emotion you feel when your team loses or wins, makes her a good woman? She cares about you, supports you, encourages you, is never quick to judge you, listens to you and advises you.

He uses her pictures on every social media platform he finds available even if he's not a big fan of P.D.A (public display of affection), if it makes her happy. He sings or mimes to songs that remind him of her, record his voice and sends to her. He knows the right thing to do. He buys her gifts, sometimes big, sometimes small. He shows off because he's proud of her. He let's go of his ego completely, she's his ego now. He pushes her to be all the best she can be. When she's upset,even if its for the wrong reasons, he apologizes. He's not weak, far from it. He just doesn't want the argument to linger, he always wants her
