Stories about some relationships and about romance.
l am a 38 year old Male who is cohabiting with 33 year old lady for the past 3 years and we have a son.
Initially when she got pregnant when we were dating we i promised her that we would get married but over the past 3 years I have postponed our proposed marriage date citing financial issues.
love her and ive I've done everything possible to show that I'm a caring husband to her and our son.
U do my best to provide for her and our child. Every one knows us and im not ashamed to call her my wifebin public.
The only thing left is for us to make it official with a ceremony.
Generally, our relationship has been fair. We have our arguments sometimes they are heated and other times mild but we always found a way to resolve them.
The problem I'm having now is that my wife kepps complaining that I do not "celebrate her " on social media by posting her picture on my WhatsApp status, my Facebook wall, or other my social media pages whenever she has a birthday.
To be fair she regularly posts my picture and that of her child on her Facebook and WhatsApp page whenever its my birthday or my son's birthday, or any other significant event.
There was a time she took my phone and posted our family pictures/her picture on my
WhatsApp status without my knowledge.
I got very angry and warned her never to do that again.
I Explain to her that I am not a
"social media person" I don't believe in posting peoples pictures to "celebrate them", to show that i care about them
I believe it is just showmanship and it I does not Express the true love that I have for her.
She knows very well that was never this type of person and I always insisted that I will never change because of her.
She however insisted that since
I'm married to her I must change and do things to make her happy such as posting her picture on Facebook
WhatsApp.
This is one thing that causes repeated arguments from time to time
It even causes more arguments than my delays in officially marrying her.
So, I want to ask if i am being too harsh or unrealistic. The way I see it, I don't think a man should change his values and principles for a woman especially if i am providing for, her and her child.
I think the way I've decided to express my Love for her should be left to me.
don't believe a man should ne sways the whims and caprices of a woman's emotion.
"Lucien, let's get a divorce," I said in a peremptory tone that was long overdue, the most decisive farewell to this absurd marriage. We had been married for exactly three years-three years that, for me, were filled with nothing but endless loneliness and torment. For three years, the husband who should have stood by my side through every storm, Lucien Sullivan, had completely disappeared from my life as if he had never existed. He vanished without a trace, leaving me alone to endure this empty, desolate marriage. Today, I finally received his message: "I'm back. Come pick me up at the airport." When I read his words, my heart leapt with joy, and I raced to the airport, thinking that he finally understood my love and was coming back to me. But his cruelty was far worse than I could have ever imagined-he was accompanied by a pregnant woman, and that woman was Carla, my closest and most trusted friend. In that moment, all of my previous excitement, all my hope, and all of our shared laughter and tears turned into the sharpest of daggers, stabbing into my heart and leaving me gasping for air. Now, all I want is to escape from this place that has left me so broken-to lick my wounds in solitude. Even if these wounds will remain with me for the rest of my life, I refuse to have anything to do with him ever again. He should know that it was his own hand that trampled our love underfoot, that his coldness and betrayal created this irreparable situation. But when he heard those words, he desperately clung to this broken, crumbling marriage, unwilling to let it end-almost as though doing so could rewind time and return everything to how it used to be. "Aurora, come back. I regret everything!" Regret? Those simple words stirred no emotion in me-only endless sadness and fury. My heart let out a frantic, desperate scream: It's too late for any of this!

My family was on the poverty line and had no way to support me in college. I had to work part-time every day just to make ends meet and afford to get into the university. That was when I met her—the pretty girl in my class that every boy dreamt of asking out. I was well aware she was out of my league. Nevertheless, I mustered all my courage and bravely told her that I had fallen for her. To my surprise, she agreed to be my girlfriend. With the sweetest smile I had ever seen, she told me that she wanted my first gift for her to be the latest and top-of-the-line iPhone. I worked like a dog and even did my classmates’ laundry to save up. My hard work eventually paid off after a month. I finally got to buy what she wanted. But as I was wrapping my gift, I saw her in the dressing room, making out with the captain of the basketball team. She then heartlessly made fun of my inadequacy and made a fool out of me. To make things worse, the guy whom she cheated on me with even punched me in the face. Desperation washed over me, but there was nothing I could do but lie on the floor as they trampled on my feelings. But then, my father called me out of the blue, and my life turned upside down. It turned out that I was a billionaire's son.
