A wife takes to social media to criticize her husband, accusing him of selfishness for refusing to include her name in the documents of all his properties, leading her to contemplate divorce.
The distressed wife seeks advice from a financial advisor on social media, sharing her predicament along with her concerns about the future.[/p>
According to her, although her husband consults her for advice when making financial decisions and investments, he consistently excludes her name from the documents. She expresses her fear of being left with nothing if they were to divorce.
She details her situation in a heartfelt message:
“Greetings Ssalongo Ssali. I got a boyfriend when I was still 16 years. We promised to marry when we get ready, hopefully after school.
He graduated before me. He got a job before I started working. He was patient until I completed school. We are now living together and we have 2 kids.
He’s such a wise and caring man and I loved him mostly for his wisdom. He’s a man from a very poor family like me but he has worked hard to become who he is today. He’s by any definition a rich man now. Personally I haven’t yet started serious working. He’s still the sole provider and he provides for us very well.
The only problem I came to find in him is that, when he wants to make any financial or investment decision, he consults me first, but he completes it alone. He has actually acquired all assets only in his names. I first spent 2 years with him before conceiving but during that period, he bought 3 plots in his names without including my name on documents as his wife. At least as a witness! He has 4 motorcycles that make money for him but all in his names!
Recently, he bought a car. This man consulted me about the decision and I seconded him. But he went in a bond alone and the card shows only his names.
This man has a selfish heart and this makes me feel insecure in this marriage. What if we divorce? What possession will I have to show? I really don’t know. I feel so stressed. I have kept all his documents but sometimes I feel like destroying all of them because of anger!
Is this how all other men handle such decisions in marriage? What can I do to be part of his property and assets? Guide me please.”
