#feelingdepressed

is it wrong if I get upset if my husband is looking at other girls whenever we go out? there was this incidence that he stop to look at one girl wearing provocative dress and I was just beside him. I mean, I felt insulted. I spanked him as we went along and he got mad saying he didn't do anything wrong and I'm so insecure etc etc.. Up to now, I'm not talking to him. Am I wrong? #feelingdepressed

Hi Mummy, thank you for sharing your story. It's totally normal that you feel upset when your husband is evidently looking at another girl. Did this happen a lot of times? Or is this the first one? What I think could be improved is how you reacted to it? If you spanked him publicly, that must be humiliating for him. But if not, it still not a good thing to do. Do not ever resolve to something physical whenever you wanna fix problems with your husband. Always come from a place of love, no matter how hurt you are. Maybe say that: "you know I was hurt when you do this. I feel like you've insulted me". You'll notice that your husband will match your tone - calm and reassuring. I know it must've felt bad for you. But yeah, always remember that there's always a better way to confront problems like these. Hope you feel better soon.
