I am indebted to you for the excellent work you do on this column. I am employed as a security guard and I start work at 6am every day. I am 25 and my wife is 20. She runs a small vegetable market (musika). We are blessed with a one-year-old son. My wife used to team up with the next-door gardener’s spouse to go and order produce around 4 am.
A few days ago, the woman from next door went to her rural home to see her mother who was not feeling well. Her husband is the one now accompanying my wife to order produce for their musika as well as ours. Amai this arrangement is not working for me. However, I cannot stop my wife because on a good month she makes more than me. What do I do?

Hello writer, let me express my profound gratitude for your continued support of this platform. I commend you and your wife for working hard to make ends meet. I also want to remind you that a key tenet of marriage is trust. Do you trust your wife? You are aware that stopping her would disadvantage your family in terms of income.
Has she said or done anything suspicious before? This is a temporary arrangement; do not read too much into it. Soon the woman from next door will be back. Please be at peace with yourself. I wish you all the best.
