Restitution by Newborn27(f): 8:40am On Dec 26, 2023
Good morning familylanders and compliment of the seasons to us all.


I'm making this post ....not to justify an abusive marriage...but to state the few facts I've gotten in over a decade of being in that institution.... I'd happily welcome more contributions and advise from the responsibly married men and women on here.


Few years ago...I created several threads to narrate the things I'm going through in my home when the heat was becoming hellish and nothing was seemingly right....I was giving a lot of matured advice... scolding and bashing on here ...then few people insisted I go on a break as the union was too toxic and might lead to crime if not checked.

We did went our separate ways.,...so far...it gave room for self-reflection and analyzing the past present and future.....my greatest nightmare while growing up was single parenting....I detest it with everyone in me... reason why I patiently endured all the abuses until it was becoming too toxic ... sending my kids and I out at night... hitting and verbal abuses....


I realized within the separated moments that I wasn't perfect either...met a counselor whom helped my growth ....he practically and patiently nurtured my mindset and weaknesses...I wouldn't mention his monicker...he stressed how childish we both were and how the things that caused the uproar shouldn't have been if we both approached it maturely ...and many more day-to-day counseling...*thanks Boss
..for all that you've done*


Despite all that I've been through...I realized that I couldn't let go of what I had for him....I tried as much as possible to resent him for all the abuses... several men sprung up to take his place...I couldn't just see myself opening up for any ....it beats me how annoying it is not to move on despite being the victim .....it ripped my heart seeing my kids ask about him....I fought several depression battles....I wish I could just let go of the past...move on and forget everything that has to do with him....I still shoulder my kids and I's responsibilities yet still harboring his thoughts...my sister is sick of my stupidity...some friends and family members thought I'm being enchanted....


Though we're not rich...but my kids and I have been doing fine without his presence..we live within our means.... it's just crazy how I desire we live together as a family.

We're approaching a new year...and the thoughts of RESTITUTION kept springing up in my heart... it's crazy ..I never discussed it with anyone even my trusted mentor...I believe I can do it...we both have our shortcomings and flaws...I just wish we could work around those imperfections...we separated after 10yrs...I believe we can do better if we uniformly work on our differences....I don't see myself going into another relationship now or in the future.....I don't want to get entrapped into single parenting....I don't want to live in regrets ..I just want to be a happy wife...mother and companion which I believe is doable.


For the people whom already knew my story on here ..... please advise me...is this RESTITUTION worth it? Despite the hurt...the abuses and disappointments....I still love him... insults are allowed as usual....I just don't want to be making more mistakes to correct the former.

-You still love him but does he still love you?
-Has he verbalized his willingness to jointly work around those imperfections?
-Has he proven through words and actions, that he is eager to rebuild the marriage?

I'm not sure as we never discussed... through out this 2023... maybe we spoke up to 5times on phone.....

There was a time around August that we met for days and considering make up...then I received a call again and he went all loose saying I don't want to change....I don't regard him receiving a man's call while he's sitted.... he's always very jealous and we never talked since then.

Good Afternoon Omoluabi.

Going through ur post got me laughing really loud and i will tell u y in my response to the folowing

Newborn27:
We did went our separate ways.,...so far...it gave room for self-reflection and analyzing the past present and future.....my greatest nightmare while growing up was single parenting....I detest it with everyone in me[b][/b]... reason why I patiently endured all the abuses until it was becoming too toxic ... sending my kids and I out at night... hitting and verbal abuses....

My dear, gone are the days were women were ready to die to make a relationship or a marriage work. If the relationship is toxic and not working, its better to abandon and embrace what will work in one's life to make life better off.

A relationship with anyone is to add to ur life and once the relationship is not beneficial in a any form, which includes improving your mental health, social well being and ur person in general etc. It isn't worth it. kolework

I have in my social circle women that against all odds walked out of toxic marriages. They have kids, one of them a very very good friend. Her husband is well known to me but he is not my friend, possibly just an acquaintance.
We had spent some time together at various times in the past. 

They separated while was pregnant with her third child. The man left her homeless and  without a job and two kids. I don't like remembering those dark years.
She had practically called me to tell me that she wanted to terminate that pregnancy because of what she was going through.
Did she love the man? Yes she did after all that was why she married him.The lady did most of the work in the home from income generation to household duties. The man just lazied around, hung out with his friends in the evening to smoke and drink.

Just like any man in that sphere, he womanized heavily. Yet her woman didn't really mind but prayerfully hoped he would change.
But when it gets to the point that he would beat her in their compound just because he has been found out that he's sleeping with a neighbor.
It tells you how bad it got.

Well, my friend has been separated for 4 yrs, in this four yrs she's been able to build her life back, doing well as a businesswoman, will complete her master degree in Law this month and recently got a good job in an oil and gas firm.Her three children are doing well.
She's not in any romantic relationship at the moment.

Incidentally the man wants to come back into her life to make her life more miserable than he left it. Because he perceives money and good life

Y am I telling you this is for u to properly assess if ur relationship with ur man is worth given a try again.
If the relationship will NOT make u a better woman.
Honestly Forget it!

I am beginning to think so too. However, it happens like that sometimes. This trash we call love can make one so stupid. You really need to pull urself back together.
This is important. Don't make urself a tool to be used. Ur man is a N/lander and will read this.
So many things will go over his mind.
As a result, you could be making urself very vulnerable especially if he doesn't give a hoot about u and how u feel.

If he still loves you and still wants to share his life with you, good.

But if he doesn't babe, there is no point MOVE ON and Forget HIM. 

U will be very crazy to attract his sympathy through this post and get served HOT LUNCH on a sunny day after all u been served breakfast already.

Ask your heart again what restitution u should be making is all about. Don't let your emotions fool you again. Afterall it led you to where you are today. 
Look at areas in your life you should develop in the coming year, this makes more sense to me than craving for a guy that may not even be thinking about you.

Reframe your mind. Reframe your mind. Men can be scums too

U are obviously making bigger mistakes telling him u still love him openly despite everything he's done to u.
U are simply saying hey guy, kill me if u like i won't stop loving u but i am sure in ur dying moments u will hate the day u met him.Don't wait till then, use ur head, but if he reaches out for reconciliation u can consider of course after weighing so many factors but if he doesn't my dear, move on.

In conclusion, we have had to let go of many valuable things in our lives which includes people at certain points whether it was convenient for us or not and we didn't die but got much more valuable things, built better relationships and became even better.

New and better things only happened to us because we let those old things go.

Folykvze1 is still online I'll give you my one cent as a man,please Do not ever make the mistake of going back to an abuser.

For a man to lock the wife and kids out in the middle of the night several times without remorse speaks alot about his background.

I m an old user and knows you storyline here,kindly let go of that man,if you let him in,it is going to be the worst mistake of your life.

Your story reminds me of a certain user here call sapphire.princ.3x and her estranged druggie husband called tydi,it was a cumbersome case that shook family section and pregnancy section years ago,the man was a complete deadbeat just like yours.


My Dear sister,please allow FOLYKAZE to go to HELL and remain there.

It was even worse than sending out at night.....not calling to check on the kids while we were apart ....not to talk of asking if we're surviving or not......when he was leaving in that August...he said I was trying to use the kids as a bait back to him which is ridiculously annoying.


But Xosh.... I've stepped on many legs for not letting go of my feelings and tagged different names.


I just pity myself for ending up this way despite how much I worked and committed to making this relationship work.

1. The fears you still harbor towards single parenting seem to be what is causing these delusions of restitution to creep up. Rather than pursue this restitution idea, I suggest you instead focus on overcoming your fear/terror of single parenting. While you claim your counselor convinced you that your immaturity contributed to your husband abusing you — i am not sure what sort of counselor does that...did he also help you see that you may have even been single-parenting your kids even while you were playing "married woman"? undecided

2. Stop hiding your fear of single-parenting behind this restitution nonsense. Focus first on overcoming that fear you have of single-parenting. That is most likely the reason behind this desire for restitution with an abusive element. undecided

Ma'am, you want to return to a man who was physically and verbally abusive towards you and your kids? With all due respect and I ask this sincerely because I mean well for you and want you to continue thriving as you've been doing: have you no sense? If you were lucky enough to get out alive and in one piece and have been raising your kids by yourself for the past 10-years, the worst thing you can do is go back to him as you might not be lucky again to leave if go back to him. He could also ruin everything you've built and worked hard for, and might make it difficult for you to leave this time around. No one will come to your rescue again ooo, so please have sense and I say that respectfully.

As for this so-called counselor, it seems he has appointed some blame towards you, which may be one reason you're considering going back to this abusive man. I need you to know that there's absolutely no justification for abuse and any counselor who wants you to share in that blame is no good counselor. It's best for women who have been victims of abuse/domestic abuse/domestic violence to see counselors who are also women, not men.

Anyways, do not go back to this abusive man. Continue facing front and raising your kids. If you don't care about yourself, at least consider them and continue doing right by them as you've been doing.

We lived together for and he left the week we ought to be 10yrs...this whole drama started in 2021 and we've been living apart ...I have sense... it's my belief and emotions that's making me look stupid.


My mentor said we were childish at initial stage when the drama began until he left the kids and I.....my mentor never for once agree I go back to him cos he already saw everything I've been and going through....he kept encouraging me to move on and see strength in my weakness


When he came around in August...I was severally scolded by my mentor... family members and friends for being stupid again.


My kids are growing well.... especially my 9yrs+ boy whom had the first hand experience of everything.....I just don't want to raise them in a broken home.... they're doing well and God is helping us.

I hope to be strong going forward.....every other person sees strength in me while I feel otherwise.



I pay our rent.. kids tuition...my tuition...daily upkeep and utilities.... it's just absurd how he never cared about it all...was the 10yrs of living together a fraud? Am I being used all along? These and many more were the questions I do ask myself.


When I try telling him how the kids are asking about him... he'd say he's been living fine without us and would continue to be...those words hurts.
Re: Restitution by TheWinterBird(f): 3:51pm On Dec 26, 2023
And despite him telling you that, you want to go back to him? A broken home in which you're raising your kids by yourself but in a healthy, sane environment that's conducive to their wellbeing is better than an abuse, unhealthy home in which your lives are at risk. It's best you continue moving forward and not look back. This is not a man you should go back to.

As for you fending for your kids yourself, why don't you just file for divorce in order to get child support from him? Based on your other threads that I just read, you mentioned you were paying for everything when living together anyway, so it's no surprise he's not giving you a dime now to take care of them. You picked the wrong man to have kids with, dang. Just face front and keep moving forward. I wish you the best.

Reason why many found my situationship/stupidity appalling.

We were never legally married and don't think we have a case in the court....moreso I detest confrontations...the bills has not been easy to pay but through hardwork and contentment... I've been trying...there are times it'd be chokey and burdening...those times I ask friends and family for support.



Without someone dragging him....a responsible father should cater for his kids irrespective of the relationship between the couple....I have many male around me whom can't eat until their family are okay....

Let's say I'm just not fortunate to have a caring dad for them.


I would be facing front until I heal up completely.... thanks for wishing me all the best ma.

Reason why many found my situationship/stupidity appalling.
We were never legally married and don't think we have a case in the court....moreso I detest confrontations...the bills has not been easy to pay but through hardwork and contentment... I've been trying...there are times it'd be chokey and burdening...those times I ask friends and family for support.
Without someone dragging him....a responsible father should cater for his kids irrespective of the relationship between the couple....I have many male around me whom can't eat until their family are okay....
Let's say I'm just not fortunate to have a caring dad for them.
I would be facing front until I heal up completely.... thanks for wishing me all the best ma.
To be honest with you, healing from the damage of an abusive marriage will likely take a very long time. Children raised in abusive homes spend a significant amount of their lives trying to beat the effects of abuse, so don't expect it to be easy for even a grown-up to deal with. undecided

2. It isn't your fault that he chose to forsake even his own kids. It is who he is and there's nothing you can do to change him or that. undecided

Folykvze1 is still online I'll give you my one cent as a man,please Do not ever make the mistake of going back to an abuser.

For a man to lock the wife and kids out in the middle of the night several times without remorse speaks alot about his background.

I m an old user and knows you storyline here,kindly let go of that man,if you let him in,it is going to be the worst mistake of your life.

Your story reminds me of a certain user here call sapphire.princ.3x and her estranged druggie husband called tydi,it was a cumbersome case that shook family section and pregnancy section years ago,the man was a complete deadbeat just like yours.


My Dear sister,please allow FOLYKAZE to go to HELL and remain there.

Stupid simp
