8 Signs of an Unhappily Married Man

Big stomach: the moment you look pregnant as a man you know that you are being fed wrong food or you have become so lazy and let your woman do all the work all of which means she is fed up with you

 Long nails: Nothing gives away that the wife has stopped caring like long nails on a man. For some funny reason most guys seem to want to be reminded of simple things when they get married, it seems they give away all their right to think when they say I do, especially when it comes to grooming. So if his nails are long, she has checked out

 Wearing ankle socks with formal pants and shoes: The moment he sits down and you can see part of his un-lotioned feet know that she is having discussions with her best friends about how useless he is. Normally cheaters are let, to go to work looking like this so they can be less attractive

 Badly ironed pants: If she lets you leave home like a cow just chewed your pants it means you have not been bringing your salary home. Chances are she feels you don't deserve the benefits of ironed pants as that is a waste of electricity which you don't pay

 Unattractive lunch box: have seen some guys who are married with lunch boxes like dishes from eliminated top chef contestants. You can see there was no effort nor love from this. If your lunch box still include white bread and polony, run because she is trying to kill you. You might also want to check if she has taken a funeral cover in your name

 Poorly maintained teeth: this already says there is no love making because chances are the breath already smells like garbage so no kissing is happening

 Poor performance at work: people with happy wives excel at work, they have the necessary support, nutrition and inspiration to give their best

 Unpolished shoes: if your shoes look like you have just done rounds at the field she is so over you. Dirty shoes also ends up making your pants dirty

NB: if you are contributing towards house chores, declaring your salary, not cheating and surprising her with gifts randomly yet the above applies to you, get marriage counselling; you are being abused.
