Jobless Man But Wife Loves Him To Death.

Posted: 10 Jul 2011 12:25 PM PDT

Having a job plays a big role in our lives and more so if you’re a man. Society simply demands that you provide for your family and those close to you. A man with no income is shunned and looked down upon and sometimes this starts at the very home where you’re supposed to get support.


But some women take it differently when their men are not working or lose jobs for whatever reasons.

The article re-published below is from today’s relationship column as published by Nation Newspaper.

I am aged 27 and have been married for the last three years. We have a five-month-old baby.

I am not writing to you to whine about matrimony, but to tell you and everyone who cares to read this how beautiful my marriage is.

When we got married, my husband worked at Cooperative Bank as a member of the support staff.

Unfortunately, his job did not last long and he was retrenched. Since then, he has been jobless, but he is the most loving and caring man I have ever known, and if I were given another chance to marry him or tell him off, I'd still marry him.



I earn less than Sh10,000 a month, and from that I have to pay our rent, feed us and clothe the baby, but I will do it for as long as I can and to the best of my abilities.

I love my husband and I know he loves me too.

I am proud that this man is my husband, and even though people call us beggars (sometimes I am forced to borrow some money to make ends meet, and my relatives do not approve of that), we know we have each other, and that is all that matters.

I know that one day God will give my husband another job, and when that happens, it will be our turn to help another soul.

I know it.

I believe it.



Dear reader, what do you think. Is she real or just naive? Comments below.
