Dear GhanaWeb: My husband provides me with an allowance, gifts and wants me to constantly reciprocate
However, when it's my birthday, he shows no effort or even the simplest gesture such as a verbal or text-based "happy birthday." On the other hand, when it's his birthday, he makes specific demands regarding how he wants to celebrate, and if I fail to meet those demands, he becomes angry. We have been married for two years, and I'm struggling to comprehend if this behaviour is acceptable or not. I can't help but question whether he truly loves me or if he married me solely for financial reasons.
