Aunty Abena
Good afternoon,
I just saw the story of that woman whose secret got exposed, and honestly, I don’t understand how she let it happen. What was she thinking? If you’re going to do something, at least be smart about it. She should have known better.
I’ve been married for eight years, but we've been together for 11. My husband had "side adventures" twice when we were dating. We separated after the first one until he begged me to accept him back. The second time, I walked away completely, but he brought his family to plead on his behalf.
But after we got married, it was as if he had a free pass to do whatever he wanted. After repeatedly complaining with no solutions, I decided to stop being the only one enduring, and my husband has never suspected a thing.
How? Because I play my cards right. I don’t act suspicious, and I certainly don’t do things that will make him start investigating. Aunty, men don’t suspect what they don’t see.
Here’s how smart women keep their peace:
A) Timing is Everything
Any outing happens during office hours. Lunch breaks, early closing hours, or ‘work errands’ are the perfect cover. No unnecessary nighttime movements.
B) The Neighbor’s House Trick
If my husband travels, I don’t waste the opportunity. A few houses down the road is far enough. No need for long trips or anything that raises eyebrows.
C) No Suspicious Calls or Texts
I don’t sit on my phone smiling like a teenager. Chats are dry, names are disguised, and there are no saved numbers with funny emojis.
D) No Emotional Slip-Ups
I don’t start unnecessary fights or suddenly withdraw from my husband. In fact, I show him more love. He thinks I adore him more than ever.
E) Gifts and Surprises
If I receive a gift, I make sure my husband gets something too. Balance is everything.
F) Passwords and Privacy
My phone is always unlocked around him, so he has no reason to snoop. Anything important is kept in places he’ll never think to check.
G) No Drastic Changes
I don’t suddenly start dressing differently, using new perfumes, or acting out of character. Consistency keeps everything in check.
H) Keeping the Kids Innocent
To avoid awkward conversations, I ensure that my "friends" treat me as a stranger in public. Only those my husband knows can approach me freely.
I) Using Family as a Shield
The first time I mentioned leaving, my family shut it down. Since they ignored my complaints and told me to endure, this is how I endure 🤭😌. At least I’m still in the marriage, right? And with all the good my husband has done for my family, why should I throw everything away? I’ll stay, but I won’t sit there suffering in silence.
The best part? My children are definitely his. At least I haven’t been reckless in that area. But as for guilt? No. He did it first. He broke our vows before I ever thought of doing the same. Why should I be the only one suffering while he enjoys himself?
So, Aunty Abena, I don’t feel sorry for that woman. If you’re going to do something, do it well.
