I have known my husband for 10 years. In the 10 years, we have been dating for 6 years, and we have been married for about 2 years now. We are in our middle twenties; he’s 3 months older than me. The purpose of this rant is that presently I’m stressed. I know my husband is a sex freak. He’s my first everything when it comes to a relationship. I didn’t have a problem with making love daily, but now I’m not comfortable with it. We have a year-plus baby which I take care of solely, not based on the financial aspect, with occasional support from my parents. He told me to put our baby in a creche or so, but I kicked against it. I want to bond fully with my child the best way I can. What does an 8-month-old baby want to do in school? So I multitask. I have a part-time lecturing job, I own a boutique, I’m also furthering my education, and combining house chores and being a mother and a wife. This man wants to make love daily, which I’m not cool with anymore. My husband brought his niece to stay with us, but I still don’t see any difference because I’m practically doing everything.
My husband owns a gadget store. Recently, I just found out I am pregnant. I always take after-sex pills, but for the first time, the thought of an abortion crossed my mind. Jesus, please forgive me, but I can’t do that. My husband does little or no house chores. The little chores he does include folding his clothes and cleaning his shoes, and, omo, I feel triggered when he’s cleaning his PS5. I’ve talked about him helping out more at home, but nope. I told him I was pregnant, and the guy was jumping with excitement. The way I was staring at him, eenhh. A friend of ours, whom I confided in, told me to quit my lecturing job, but I can’t. My husband, when we were dating, has told me during a quarrel that he didn’t want a liability. Then we were still in the university. I was not earning anything; I was depending on my parents, and he was supporting the best way. I won’t lie; I took it to heart. I don’t want see finish because of love. Honestly, I’m happy that I earn more than him financially because those words broke me, but I turned them into motivation. How do I cope with all these combined?
