Can I Revenge Just This Once?

Hello Aunty Eya and WC, my husband has done some nasty things to me in the past and I never for once tried to revenge. He doesn’t even bother to say sorry tor. If I like let me be angry and frown for a whole week, he will behave like nothing is wrong until I get over my anger and just carry on with life.

This one, now if I don’t revenge, I won’t be happy. Hubby and I work in the same office. We come home in the evening, he
settles on the couch for Supersports while I go into the kitchen. No matter how tired I am, I will cook all alone managing a cry baby alone because him, he only carries our baby when the baby is in a good mood. He won’t lift a finger at all while I cook and serve him. Even when I don’t feel very strong, he would rather eat cornflakes and go to bed than enter the kitchen.

Last night while  cooking, he came into the kitchen and informed me that my cooking was taking too long. I used one of wives connection recipes so the phone was on and I was referring to the recipe while cooking. After some minutes, he entered the kitchen again, saw me looking at the phone and concluded that the reason the food is taking long is because I am reading blogs while cooking. He just keeps warning me about spending time on blogs when actually I learnt from him he always used to ignore me while browsing, now I got myself a blackberry and learnt to occupy myself with blogs and now he complains.

The second time he entered the kitchen, before I looked up, he had grabbed my Blackberry Bold, smashed on the wall and the rest is history as I type. I couldn’t sleep the whole night and we haven’t spoken although he still ate the food I served. I have really been thinking of how best to revenge so that for once he feels the pain too. I need advice please. 

Should I drop his Samsung Galaxy S4 in water or drop his Ipad in water or break the TV in his master bedroom? I want to destroy the one that will pain him the most and before someone fears that he will kill me, I will drop them accidentally. I can’t even think straight Aunty Eya, Pls post immediately I beg you.

  1. WOW……This is serious. Please pray for patience and wisdom to manage the situation. Perhaps you should have told him earlier that you were using looking at the phone because you were trying out a new recipe you saw on WC. I wish you all the best dear.

  3. The best revenge is to syphone his cash. Destroying his itenms won't add any value to your life. Steal his damn stupid money if you can and get yourself even a better fone. I don vex

  4. Two wrongs can't make a right. U made a mistake by not telling him what u were using the phone for even when you realised his thoughts might be that u are on a blog. There is a way u can stil make him feel remorseful so find that way he is your husband and you know him better. Shalom.

  6. Pls don't destroy any of those things o… Relax

    U know what I will advice u to do, just take it cool, talk to him,talk to him like u are talking to a child,u know when a child misbehaves and u wanna talk some senses to him,all those kain talks wey u no go shout,u go just dey talk am straight to the point.. Don't be tempted to shout o, just do the talking calmly.. E.g. Now that u have destroyed the phone,do u feel better?(Calmly).. Destroying d phone was totally unnecesary hope u know? To think I was using the phone to help wit the meal.. (Then explain everything u were doing).. If he trys to change the tempo just tell him to calm down while u state ur point. Get to his conscience.. Please don't destroy anything o cuz if u do at the end of the day u will be the one doing the apologising not him..

  7. Mama Ijebu always on point!! Can I pls gt ur email. I'm in dire need of a solution and I always trust ur sincere judgment.

  8. Your husband definitely loves food… and most likely he's tries to conserves energy for ‘night duty’. After you don talk to im conscience (following Mama Ijebu’s lead), starve the guy small, esp. for night. But that na if you you sef fit cope.
    Some strategies that could help:
    1. When in the kitchen, ask hubby for specific help. For e.g. visit the ladies and ask him to do part of the cooking, watch over the food on fire, or dish the food. This way, you’ll always get him to be part of the doing.
    2. Seek other creative way to send the guy on errand. Don’t form superwoman – you can’t do all yourself. Examples include loading the watching machine, changing and laying the bed spread, etc.
    3. Appreciate his contributions/help and be extra nice (in the room) every time he behaves well.

    Sis, no take work kill yoursef.

  10. Dear poster, ur hubby and mine hv something in common: SULKING! That's one thing he very good at, fortunately, I knew pre-marriage. He gives monosyllabic replies that pains me until I make peace(always me making first move). Fortunately, he doesn't go physical which I can't forgive. U need lots of prayers for wisdom, patience and sweet talk. I think u chose a wrong time to try experimenting new food. Social internet can be addictive so I understand y ur hubby misunderstood ur motives esp if he was very hungry. Try such new recipe when u hv enough time on ur hands like wkend and also u cld copy out the recipe using shorter words in a handy book meant for such. Pls, never compare responsibilities wt ur spouse! It wld only make u mad. Keep trying as much as u can. Besides, if ur hubby does other domestic chores like sweeping the house, laundry etc, dts enuff consolation for u. There are men who don't even do any. I remember once my hubby came home on a wkend and I was done cooking, d yeye boy just sulked and preferred to take a drink and snack after all my pleas(was my fault, I wasn't busy that day). Pls never match anger for anger o, cld lead to another thing. Keep trying sweet talk.
    Sorry for the epistle o

  11. Mama ijebu has said it all. Babe, two captains can't be on a ship!!!! You've been building up this resentment for a long time and really, it may destroy you before you realise. You are lucky your husband hasn't lifted a finger to hit you all along and he even ate your food after smashing your phone. Assumptions destroy a lot of things oh! Anything he does to you that you don't like, tell him not because you expect an apology but cuz you want it off your mind. Men are naturally ecocentric and I can count on my fingers the number of times my elder brother has said sorry to me even when he's at fault. The hallmark of a career lady is being able to marry her work and marriage successfully! Forget about the fact he watches tv while you in the kitchen, you can always ask him to help and if he doesn't want to, move ahead and do it yourself before you push him outside with this your desire to revenge. Remember, men are like babies, they'll aways mess up and ours is to clean the mess.

  14. Revenge shld b left for enemies not friends let alone boos for life. Hez ur hubby n ur 1st baby aswell. U were both wrong. Apologise to him den sweetly tell him he hurt u by smashing ur fon. Let him knw u only wanted to mak him happy by cukin new recipies. U can tell him u'l lik him to help u read out d recipies while u cuk. Jst pet him cos hez ur big baby. Den tell him hw much u'l love it for him to do some chores with u. Dialogue will solve a lot rada dan revenge. Pls do nt stay angry with ur spouse for a long tym. Its risky. Pls add up for ur makeup25C1DB17

  16. Hmmm this is the situation pastor Abraham was talkn about during Wofbi,a situation where u implore "the wether u like it or not I love u by force rule",with an undeserving spouse.I'm sry poster,I feel ur pain,but pls forget revenge,just go to ur husband,look him in the eye and say,wether u like it or not,wether u deserve it or not,I love u by force.he might think ure insane,but just keep saying it to him..sincerely I'm rlly sry sha,but u chose this man as ur husband,so pls love the one u chose.and yes na by force,if u don't want divorce.I'm praying for U.selah.

  17. I sincerly think u should have told him what u were using d fone to do but he also went too far by smashing d fone. Am sure both of u can work it out. Pls don't bottle up resentment. If he offends u,thrash it out immediately in a cool n calm way. If d baby is cryn and ure busy simple carry ur child n put beside him…no bi only u born am. Don't kill urself with work ohh. Do ur best n close ur eyes to d rest. Most importantly,ensure he replaces ur fone or u take one of his.

  18. "You are lucky your husband hasn't lifted a finger to hit you all along and he even ate your food after smashing your phone"

    I can't believe a woman just said the above. Please if you are talking from experience and your man beats/is beating/has beaten you for ANY REASON dear Amaka Hundeyin, kindly RUN. Why would you make such a statement? o jebi, he shouldn't have eaten the food. He isn't lucky that she finished preparing it at all. There is something called a "boy-husband" that is a husband that is very childish. This poster's husband needs to grow up.

    Dear Poster, just ignore what he has done. Every day for the thief, one day for the owner. A day will come when he would realize you're inestimable and priceless to him. Don't revenge and copy out your recipes on a piece of paper next time. Hugs.

  19. You and mama Ijebu nailed it. @poster, pls just do as you have been advised! thats why I love WC. If you come in anger, you leave a better person with wisdom/understanding to handle such complexes. Do comeback and share your testimonies oo! hugs!

  20. Amaka u are a such a child for that ridiculous statement about about she being 'lucky' her husband didn't hit her.
    Gosh u got such low self esteem,work on your value system.
    Is the wife the husband's frustration wall for him to hit her?a husband is to love the wife deeply,where in comes that stupid behaviour he's putting up?
    And u expect the husband to turn her into a punching bag?
    U are a little girl,still a teenager wit this warped mentality,get off adult blogs,nobody deserves this your silly advice and grow up!
    I bet you are being abused and u are justifying,well enjoy it alone.
    And FYI men are not babies and don't need to clean up after their mess!they are adults who can think for themselves.
    You and the douchebag who are in some sort of relationship truly deserve each other,when he says jump,u would ask how high!
    *sorry if I got personal people,this girl-child statement totally riled me up.

  21. If I were you, I will ignore him and act like nothing happened and not get any phone any time soon. Trust me it will pain him more than you.

  22. those that bashed me, thanks oh. I've never and will never support lifting up a finger against a woman and FYI, am not in any abusive relationship and never have been and I don't have self esteem issues either.I meant the poster was lucky even if her husband was angry at that point, its a good thing he rather spoilt the phone than beat her afterall it happens. the anon that said am a kid, yes am a kid and thanks for the insult too but since I've been coming here, I've not seen any age restrictions here

  23. You know what? I am sick of this shit. So what do you want us to do? I see why they say men marry b*tches for a reason. No, being a b*tch doesn't mean you should be disrespectful. You are a human being just like him! Act like one. This guy is turning you into a mule. You should have immediately stopped cooking the food and closed the kitchen. I see no sense in both of you coming home tired from same office, but him unwinding while you cook and the least he can do is hold the baby but wouldn't. If he can't be patient enough or help while you cook him something new and nice then keep feeding him the same meals until weekend when you are free. Cook ONE big pot of soup and rice. Every evening warn it up and serve it. If he complains, present your case! Shikina! Yes men like submissive and obedient wives but not someone who has no boundaries in the things they allowed done to them. He will keep doing it if you continue to let him. Today na phone tomorrow might be slap. He is a bully! Stand up to him in subtly.

  34. I agree with Ace Bentley. Sweet Revenge has a way of making you feel good and happy. Tooth for tat but be careful so he doesn't suspect you in anyway.

    Pour hot water in the ear piece hole and then wipe outside with tissue. He needs to feel some kind of pain too, don't you think????

  35. Dear WC, I feel so good after reading all your comments. I will go with your advice but I really want to do something to him that will make me feel good too since he never says sorry. Getting him to replace my fone will be as difficult as passing a cow head through a needle's eye.

    He won't give a damn, pls I need some support like Ace's. My husband is the type of man that deserves to feel pain too once in a while cos he has no feelings for others. He is callous and doesn't care. I tried to talk calmly like Mama Ijebu and sis suggested but he kept raising his voice and embarrasing me with visitors around in the next room. I had to let the matter be.

    He will never listen to my sweet talk cos he knows it might lead to my fone replacement whih he won't want to do at all at all.

    I will get another fone but I just need to anonymously make him feel pain so that I feel good too for once. I just want to see him feel bad too.
    Thanks for all your comments and pls only this once after all I'm going thru. After now, I promise you guys I won't revenge again ever.
