Anonymous has been with her partner for about 10 years and they have a child together. When she called in last year she shared how she felt like her partner was not contributing financially in their household. 

Anonymous says that situation has persisted and another thing is that they are in a civil marriage but their families are not aware of this situation. 

Anonymous says he keeps coming up with financial excuses about why they can’t have an African traditional marriage, but she just doesn’t understand this. Anonymous is worried she might have made a mistake by marrying him.

Ask a Man 03 Feb '25: 'We're married but our families don't know.'

Anonymous has been with her partner for about 9 years now, and says things were generally fine between them until she found out last year that he actually has children from a previous relationship that he didn’t tell her about. 

She was upset about this and confronted him, to which he responded by saying that she should be happy that he married her instead of the mother of his children. 

She is now in the process of divorcing him, however, the people in her life are calling her out, saying she’s overreacting by divorcing him.

Ask A Man 21 May '26: ' Am I wrong for divorcing him?'

Anonymous says he persued his current partner for about two years before they eventually started dating. 

Their relationship was going well and she fell pregnant after they had agreed to have a baby together. His partner ended up aborting the baby as she was worried about how it would affect her mental health as she’s suffering from a mental condition.

Ask A Man 20 May '26: 'Is the love bite a sign that she's moved on?'

Anonymous started dating her partner about three years ago and says her partner cheated on her, with his ex, early on in their relationship but they overcame this and moved on with their relationship. 

She recently found texts on his phone to his friend where he was sharing with his friend about meeting up with another girl. 

She confronted him about this and he said it’s not something that actually happened or that he went through with, he was just trying to impress his friends, who apparently thrive on that kind of behaviour. 

She’s thinking of breaking up with him, but is not sure if thats the right choice.
