My Wife and I

in advice •  7 years ago 

Good dat All

At this time in this part of the world i should be sleeping but i'm typing this with a heavy heart. I feel sharing will make me sleep as the saying " a problem shared is half solved".

Today, after i arrived from the office, we had pleasant talks and smiles as regular couple who shared everything without hiding any.

After awhile i noticed her tummy was getting bigger not the slim stomach with perfectly shaped curve described by Ed Sheeran with song "Shape of You" anymore just after 7 months of marriage, and she's not pregnant yet. She knows my attraction to flat tummy Ladies and we've discussed at length about that late night heavy meals that most times contribute. I love the fact that she loves to wait we eat together because by that i also get encouraged to eat better but it's making her tummy bigger.

So, i said Babe " your tummy is getting bigger you better watch it".

She said " so if you have met me like this, you wouldn't have married me"?

And i blatantly replied "yes". I didn't know the reply was the beginning of trouble.

"So i am worthless, of no value, you dont love me anymore, like a side chick..." she said and more.

I became dumbed founded and later explained it was not my intention but she was crying already. I was thinking within myself " was i wrong to caution her growing out of shape, wrong expressing myself freely before her, wrong to let her know what keeps are attractive and keeps me happy...?

I was forced to say " i am sorry" and a long pleeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaadddddd. Yet we both slept without firm reconciliation but i held her close till i slept. It took me longer hour before i could sleep though.

Readers, i felt she's acting childish with this little matter and using my words against me is most surprising and exasperating but i dont want to vindicate myself that's the reason am sharing.

Please, where have i gone wrong?
