MY HUSBAND IS TOO FAITHFUL, OUR HOME IS BORING, I MISS MEN WHO MAKE ME JEALOUS – BORED WIFE LAMENTS
A married woman has sparked serious debate after confessing that she is beginning to miss the drama and excitement of having an unfaithful partner. According to her, her husband is everything many women pray for, but she finds his peaceful lifestyle almost unbearable.
She says her husband does not flirt with other women, does not hide his phone, does not come home late and has never given her a reason to suspect him of cheating. However, instead of enjoying the peace in her marriage, she says she sometimes misses the days when men fought for her attention and made her jealous.
In her confession, she explains why she is beginning to question whether a peaceful marriage is really what she wants.
Read her story below:
I know many women will insult me after reading this, but I honestly want to know if there are other women experiencing what I am going through.
I am in my mid-thirties, married with two children, and my husband is one of the most faithful men I have ever met.
In fact, sometimes I wish he could behave like other men.
Before I got married, I dated different kinds of men. Some were romantic, some were troublesome, and some were serious womanisers. I had boyfriends who could call me ten times in one night just because they saw me talking to another man. There were times when two men would even fight over me.
I won’t lie, I enjoyed that attention.
Even when I was angry with my boyfriend, the fact that he was always checking on me, getting jealous and trying to find out who I was talking to made me feel wanted.
But when I met my husband, everything changed.
He was different from the men I had dated before. He was calm, respectful, hardworking and very responsible. He never shouted at me, never fought with me over another man and never tried to control my movements.
At first, I thought I had finally found the perfect man.
We got married, and our marriage has been peaceful from the beginning.
But now, I am beginning to wonder whether too much peace can make a marriage boring.
My husband leaves for work in the morning and comes home in the evening. He doesn’t go to clubs, doesn’t keep female friends unnecessarily and doesn’t entertain any woman who tries to get close to him.
His phone is always available. Sometimes he even gives it to me to help him reply to messages. He doesn’t delete chats or behave suspiciously.
If I tell him I am going out with my friends, he simply tells me to enjoy myself. He doesn’t ask who will be there or whether men will attend.
Can you imagine? Sometimes I deliberately tell him that a particular man complimented me, hoping he will react, but he will just smile and say, “That’s nice, my love.”
I sometimes get annoyed with him because I want to see a little jealousy.
There was a time I dressed up beautifully before going out. I spent almost two hours doing my makeup and choosing what to wear. When I came out, I expected him to look at me and ask where I was going looking so beautiful.
Instead, he smiled and said I looked beautiful and should have fun.
I was disappointed.
I know this may sound strange, but sometimes I miss the excitement of having a man who is afraid of losing me.
My husband is not romantic in the way I imagined marriage would be. He loves me, provides for the family and takes care of the children, but everything is so predictable.
We wake up, pray, prepare the children for school, go to work, come back home, eat dinner and sleep. Weekends are for family activities, church and visiting relatives.
There is no drama, no arguments about suspicious phone calls, no unexpected midnight calls from women and no emotional rollercoaster.
My friends sometimes complain about their husbands cheating, but I find myself secretly wishing my husband could at least show some signs that another woman is interested in him.
I know I sound unreasonable, but I sometimes feel that his complete faithfulness has made me take his love for granted.
Recently, one of my old boyfriends contacted me on social media. He was the kind of man who used to make me feel like I was the only woman in the world. He would get jealous over little things and always wanted to know where I was.
We chatted briefly, and I noticed that I was smiling while reading his messages.
That was when I became worried about myself.
I have a good husband at home, yet I was enjoying attention from a man who would probably never give me the kind of peace my husband gives me.
I have not cheated on my husband, and I don’t intend to destroy my marriage. But I cannot deny that something inside me misses that old excitement.
Sometimes I even wonder whether I married too early and missed out on enjoying life.
My husband thinks I am happy because I never complain. He believes everything is perfect between us. Meanwhile, I sometimes feel like I am living with a very good friend rather than a man who makes my heart race.
I have not told him any of this because I don’t want him to misunderstand me or deliberately start behaving badly just to satisfy my feelings.
But I need honest advice.
Am I the only woman who feels this way? Can a man be too faithful, too calm and too predictable to the point that his wife starts getting bored?
Should I be grateful for the peace I have or should I tell my husband that I need more excitement and romance in our marriage?
Sometimes I look at other women complaining about their cheating husbands and ask myself whether I am the only woman who is tired of having absolutely nothing to complain about.
Please, I need your honest advice.
