      Physically- I am at option 5. Currently with the highest vote.

      Mentally- Guess I am at option 6...... 😞

      I dun have any \"temptation\" at my current work place. Dun talk about social life, i dun have any, though....

      In my previous work place(s), i met guys whom we can actually \"verbally\" seducing each other.... But luckily we did not get anywhere deep,deep....... 🙏 Neither do we dun have time alone nor we create time alone and of cos nothing sort of happen. 😉 After work, i would straight away devote all my time to my family. :love:

      My mind runs \"wild\" sometimes.....hope that's normal....Ever dreamt of having \"good time\" not with DH, but with someone else I know..... :!: 😢

        buds, your friend's story is really ultimate sob story. so 😞 for her.


        I had a friend also had her dh walked out on her just like that with her helper, until now still missing. She only filed for divorce a few years ago because she harboured the hopes of his return. My friend is luckier, she is having a better life now with a better man and her own business. Kids are also grown up and sensible.

          I have a friend whose DH left her with debts by borrowing lots of money from the bank before disappearing. Heard that he went off with a China babe. Apparently, his money ran out and left with no other choice, he went back to his wife. :x If I were her, there’s no way I’ll take him in. I’m sure their children despite him.

            Just cheating DH? What about DW? Recently not one, but I saw 2 such cases. Wife walking out of their ‘useless’ husbands together with their children, and the husband are not to have contact with the children. In both cases, they did not fight and they landed up having to pay a huge alimony and back to their bachelorhood broke.


            I sometimes wonder, with the woman liberation, have we become too liberated? Being a submissive wife can have its blessings as well… How are these children going to grow up without a fatherly figure, no matter how capable the wife is?

              IMO. in the past, most bread-winners are men and most women are financially dependent on their hubby. Some women then do not have their own social circle. Thus, women then tend to be more forgiving and tolerable to their hubby.



              current time is different. most wife are FTWM and some even earn more than their hubby. No longer need to take all the bullshits from errant hubby.

                It really depends on each couples' issues. I have a friend, husband is 'useless', for lack of better term. Cannot hold on to a job, owes money to various credit card companies, phone bills not paid, gets into fights, etc. Wife not a high income earner, but have to help him clear some of his debts to the point where she did not have money to bring her son to the doctors when he was sick. Even though it is easy for us to say she can dun pay those bills for her husband but when faced with a husband who keeps pestering her for money and creditors knocking on their doors, it's easier said then done. So eventually she decided to separate from him and she is doing so much better away from him then with him. He still has access to their child so the kid is not growing up without a father figure.

                If she had continued to be submissive just to keep a complete family, I dare say the kid will suffer.

                  I just feel that women shouldn’t leave all the finances to the men to manage. I feel that women should hold the purse string. Observed in many cases, when things happen, the one who suffer most is the person who is financially dependent/ leave the finance management to the spouse completely. They are clueless when things happen. Eg. if the wife is more involved in the finances, there would be tell tale signs eg. letters/ calls from bank on default payment, etc…


                  The same happened to my aunt. The hubby just left her overnite and disappeared. For many many years till her kids grow up, she had to take on many jobs just to bring up my 4 cousins and to make ends meet. One of her kids is a scholar and they are all grown up now. Sometime last year, my mum saw a news about her hubby on the chinese newspaper saying that he is now in old folks home and "abandoned" by his kids. Why didn’t he mention that he abandoned his kids and wife in the first place and led them to have some many years of hardship? Why is he only appearing now??? Anyway, they did not acknowledge him and I personally think he deserve it for all that he has done to them.

                  My mum was telling me that no one knows what happened to them except the couple and another uncle of mine. But my uncle is dead so it appears that it will always be a secret. Sometimes the problem that exists between a couple may not be as clear as black and white. There could be a compilation of issues that led one of them to do something wrong.

                    the hubby needs to \"wake up\" !

                    wonder what she saw in him in the first place.

                      Well let’s just say the wife woke up before the husband. Last heard, he is still in and out of jobs, creditors are still hounding him and he was still trying to get money from my friend periodically.


                      What did she see in him in the first place? Well as the saying goes, love is blind. And during courtship, he really wined and dined her, talks about his ambition and family values, etc. And she fell for it and with the propensity for forgiveness that most typical submissive women have, she forgave him time and again and held out hope that he will change.

                      It is more common then you think.
