Married and insecure




My name is mokgadi Monare and i am insecurely happily married. Sounds weird right? Well i thought so too until i discovered that all my married friends felt the very same way. I found consolation in all that and i would like to believe there is nothing wrong with me now. When i got married i was very much confident and i trusted my husband whole heartedly. But men have a talent they were born with,and that is breaking "trusts".

Oh gosh that talent shines brighter than the Limpopo sun on a very sunny day. No matter how many times a man lies to you or break the trust, he somehow manages to keep the love burning. I just can never stop loving him no matter what he does,but there are days when i want nothing to do with him until i start missing him.  I am one of a few who made the mistake of marrying a man because i thought being married would change him.

He crossed me a lot as a boyfriend and when i finally said enough is enough and he actualy noticed how serious i was,he tricked me by popping the question and i fell right into the trap. I married a man because i thought marriage would change him(giggles).

People say women relax once they are married,they say we wear political branded free shirts and doek all weekend and we no longer make the effort to look good. Okay,maybe we sometimes make that mistake but that is who i was as a girlfriend too,only that he wouldn't see it because we weren't living together and i would dress up like i was going out whenever he would come over.

I was never tired from cleaning after him. Men are big babies, they literaly become disabled when you are around and you now have to take the role of being their house help. You will tidy up the house all day with no help from them as if you are some robot. And you are still expected to look like Kim Kardashian who just wakes up and look cute doing nothing. When my husband takes a shower, he leaves the bathroom floor wet, and his clothes on the bedroom floor. The closet turned upside down and all.

I don't even want to talk about the kitchen when he makes himself something to eat. Okay maybe it is no excuse for sometimes forgeting about our looks but when the house is in a state and he is in the streets looking untidy, the society blames "the woman". If a man looks skinny, it is the woman's fault(laughs). Go bohloko go ba mosadi(it hurts being a woman). It is rare to find a man lifting a finger in the house to help. I get so tired to even go to the loo because i would be dealing with putting the t seat down everytime,lol marriage is beautiful don't get me wrong but it needs a lot of patience and a very big heart to sweeten the bitternes of it.

I am insecure about a lot of things but i play cool all the time. I married a man with outside kids and i had one kid before i met him. My inlaws won't stop comparing me with their favourite baby mama, he thinks it is just a joke and they mean no harm. We are going to talk about a lot of things here,like when i found out he impregnated another woman and how my inlaws thinks i am not good enough for their son. How i went from being a sweet makoti to a "get out of my house now"makoti.
