My colleague pays his wife for cooking. He said he started doing it when they were dating as a way of appreciating her whenever she came over to cook for him. She was very happy then and started coming over more frequently. A week after they got married, she told him that he had stopped being nice and no longer gave her money after cooking. He gave her some money during the early stages of their marriage. Then she continued asking for money after cooking. He thought it was a joke, but she was serious. He said his wife stopped cooking for one month because of it until he started giving her money again. My colleague is a quiet guy who doesn't like trouble. The worst part is that his wife doesn't accept anything less than ₦1,500.
