Ask Sugar: Is My Girlfriend Really Cheating On Me?

Photo Credit: HelpGuide

 

Dear Sugar,

 

 

I am a bit confused. I love my girlfriend so much and there hasn't been a day where we don't profess how much we love each other. I was hoping that this quarantine, we can spend more time together. I asked her to decide whether we should stay at hers or mine but she kept insisting that I will distract her and her work can be demanding. So I stayed back. I called her about two nights ago and heard a guy's voice in the background.

Ask Sugar: My Wife Is Choosing Religion Over Our Relationship

Dear Sugar,

 

 

I recently got married and I must say that I'm starting to regret making the decision too early. My wife joined a new church soon after we moved to a new place and she has suddenly become very involved.

Competing with a Ghost

Dear Sugar,

God forgive me but I feel like I’m competing with a ghost. My husband’s ex-wife died after battling with cancer for several years, while I understand that he may never completely get over her, I feel like I am constant competition with her. There is a GIANT photo of her in our living room, and the only time I have brought up taking it down we ended up having a big fight. Am I asking too much that he moves on finally?

Thanks Mrs. C

My Sister's Husband Is A Cheat

I’m really worried for my sister. She’s been married five years. I recently just found out and with proof that her husband is having an affair. They have two children, which is one of the reasons I don’t want to interfere. What should I do?

Dear Mosunmola,

Can I invite my ex to my wedding?

Dear Sugar,

My partner and I got into an argument because I mentioned that I want to invite one of my exes that I’m still good friends with to our wedding. I don’t see anything wrong with that. Please could you shed some light on this for me?

Two Religions, Two Ceremonies, How Do We Go About It

Dear Sugar

I am a Christian woman marrying a Muslim man. We initially wanted to have one (1) ceremony where an Imam would go first and then afterwards my minister would take us through a Christian ceremony. His Imam says that is forbidden according to Islamic rites. We are both confused as to what to do. Please advise.

Finances Are Ruining My Marriage

Dear Sugar,

My husband and I have been having the same fights recently and the root is always our finances. Though we both have good jobs, we have very different financial priorities for example he wants to buy new golf clubs while I would rather pay for the children's after school lessons. I don’t want this to ruin our marriage, please tell me what to do.

Dear Chiamaka,

I want to adopt but my husband is strongly against it.

Dear Sugar,
I have been married for 5 years and we haven’t been blessed with kids yet. We have tried all sorts, invested blood, sweat and money, all efforts have been futile.
My doctor recently proposed the idea of adoption and i bought it. Unfortunately my husband isn’t down with it. I don’t know what to do.

My Husband Wants Us To Swing To Revive Our Sex Life: What Do You Think?

Dear Sugar,

I was recently diagnosed with a terminal disease that required surgery. My husband is a doctor so he was completely involved in my treatments and all. However, somewhere down the line, our sex life became nonexistent although we are still very much in love.
Now my husband is suggesting we swing in order to fix our issues. He says a lot of married people swing these days. I want to try it but I’m confused. What do you think?

Dear Vanessa,

Should I Buy A Used Wedding Dress?

Dear Sugar,

I’m considering buying a used wedding dress; my friends think it’s a crazy idea; I would like to know the pros and cons to it.
- Rebecca Ade

Dear Rebecca,

This depends on two major things, Are you a bride on a budget? Or are you the type of bride that can’t justify spending hundreds of thousands of Naira on a dress that you will typically wear once in your life?

There are a few pros and cons to buying a used wedding dress.

Pros

I don’t know what to do with my Cheating Husband

My husband is a chronic cheat, when I say CHRONIC I mean its really bad. He sleeps with and flirts with any woman he sees - my friends are not even off limits!!!! I have talked, screamed, cried, begged, prayed. Most people say I should leave but I don't believe in divorce.

He Makes Less Money Than I Do

Dear Mr Sugar,

I wasn't really worried about marriage until I turned thirty, then it suddenly seemed like I was running out of time. Luckily, I met my fiancé a few months after my thirtieth birthday and we clicked instantly.

Should I Stay or Walk Away

Dear Mr Sugar,
My fiancé and I have been dating on and off for 7 years. We got back together late last year and he proposed. We set a date and started planning the wedding. Then we found out that the girl he dated while we were broken up was pregnant and she says it is his.

Getting Old and Desperate

Dear Mr. Sugar,

I'm a 34 year old woman currently not in a relationship with no prospects in sight. Every man who comes my way is either married, in some sort of relationship or, just plain unserious.
