Headnote: As days go by
and nights fall, I watch my dear husband falling in love with his dreams,
engaging in midnight romance with his pillows and establishing a cordial relationship
with his bed, while I go out to work and fend for the family.
Dear Cupids,
My heart bleeds, I don’t
know how I married a couch potato. This is the first time I will ever come out
to tell the world what I’ve been passing through. I was not supposed to marry
Dare, I had for 7 years dated my ex-boyfriend, Jimmy. We were to be married but
we realized I couldn’t be pregnant after several rounds of sex with Jimmy. We couldn’t
explain the reason behind this. Our attention was not placed on it until we
were ready to be married. We dissolved the relationship on mutual
understanding. Jimmy went on to marry another woman.
Several years after Jimmy got married, I was still depending
on him financially. Even though I work, I still depend on him as he’s wealthy. I
regret letting him go because soon after he married another woman, he got her
pregnant. I wondered why he couldn’t get me pregnant until my doctor told me
there is a likelihood we were not compatible in terms of fertility. I certainly
believe it’s a mystery the doctor himself cannot explain. Although, he told me my
body must have produced antibodies that kill Jimmy’s spermatozoa.
I’m not ashamed to say this: Jimmy provided for my marriage,
he single-handedly sponsored it. I was getting older, pressure from friends and
family was on me to get married. That was when I met Dare. Dare was working at
the time but he was underemployed. His remuneration was low, so he was thinking
of starting his own enterprise. No one knew how we arrived at the bloated spending
during our marriage, all thanks to Jimmy.
Six months after marrying Dare, I gave birth to my first baby
but sadly Jimmy lost his wife. Cupids, this is where I need your help. Remember
I told you Jimmy is my financier. He helps me every time I ask him for help. My
husband is a drone, he sleeps days and nights. Jimmy has been resourceful and
helpful but he has lived without a woman in his life for ten years. Lately, I have
been having marital crisis. I now have two kids, Jimmy has three and you know
what? Jimmy wants me to quit my marriage and marry him. Dare has been annoying,
he now womanizes on loan. He doesn’t
love me anymore. Please, I need your advice.
Thanks,
Sade.
