How You Gonna Give Me a Baby… but Not a Last Name?

How You Gonna Give Me a Baby… but Not a Last Name?

Subtitle: 10 years, a child, and no ring — when love feels like loyalty without direction.

You ever build a life with someone… only to realise you built everything except security?

This week, we’re diving deep into one of the most emotional, complicated, and brutally honest relationship dilemmas yet:

She gave him 10 years. A child. Her loyalty. Her everything.

He gave her love — but never a last name.

He says marriage doesn’t change anything.

She says commitment without intention feels like confusion.

So what happens when love feels like loyalty on borrowed time?

Join Kelechi & Standish Chapfika, hosts of The Husband & Life Podcast, for a raw, emotional, and unfiltered conversation about modern relationships, timelines, fear, commitment, and the silent heartbreak of waiting for something that may never come.

 IN THIS EPISODE:

 Why love without direction becomes emotional debt How “maybe one day” turns into a decade Why some men love deeply but still avoid marriage The difference between love, comfort, and commitment Three truths that will help you stop waiting and start living

Expect laughter, brutal honesty, vulnerable confession, and those viral “Did they just say that?” moments that make Husband & Life the internet’s favourite couple.

 JOIN THE CONVERSATION

Would you wait 10 years for marriage?

Or would you walk away from a love that won’t evolve?
