My wife does not appreciate me

 Dear Obaa Yaa,

I overhead my wife talking to someone on the phone. I still don’t know who that person was but it could be any of her friends.

In her conversation, I overheard her telling someone how lucky the person was. She said “Do you know how much he gives me to keep the home? I am even tired of the marriage.”

These words from my wife shocked me. In her conversation, he insulted me to her friend, describing me as a lazy person.

Our marriage is only two years old and we don’t have a child. I work very hard but I earn little.

When I confronted her, she told me she was just joking and for that matter is not something serious.

I didn’t want to drag it but the more I think of it, the more I get hurt knowing the woman I married doesn’t appreciate my effort.

What hurt me the most was when she said her friend should give her husband to her.

I am lost, I feel she doesn’t need me in her life. How can I forget about this?

Dear Abraham,

Have you considered having an open and honest conversation with your wife about how you are feeling?

In my opinion, it is possible that she is not aware of the efforts you are making.

Communication is key in any rela­tionship, and talking things through can help clear up misunderstandings and strengthen your bond.
