Dear Emeh
I don't even know where to begin,but I guess i have to begin somewhere,my parents wouldn't approve my marriage,they refused to give their blessing,what was their reason u might ask,they simply did not like the state he's from,as they were talking i kept on wondering if these were really my parents talking in this 21st century,who dictates who their child should marry?They called the guy and told him nasty things,we broke up finally but we still love eachother.
I just need advice,should i continue with this guy,with d hopes that my parents would agree i just don't know cos am really hurting right now,am thinking of moving away from home,my dad threatened to disown me should I continue,he even said that if i get pregnant for them to allow me marry him that it wont work,that i'll give birth at home ,we just want to be together,why shud my parents interfere,i just need advice from my fellow blog readers,what shud i do??

I am yet to see where parents are wrong when it comes to marriage issues. They may see what you haven't and it may. It just be tribe. My advice is sit them down and ask them to tell you the real reason. If it's just tribe then you can get others like pastors to talk to them. But don't turn away from your family because of a man
ReplyDeleteBlog analyser: you spoke my mind. Put it in prayer too. If it is the will of God it will happen
DeleteAgree with you Gloria.
DeleteShe might not understand now, but they mean well.
Poster, please listen to your parents.
sorry about that.. my dad is like dat too actually, he thinks he must av a say on everything but my dear it's ur life.. although u av to respect ur parents but if u rilli want to go thru with it I think u shld follow ur heart n maybe get ur relatives to talk to ur parents
ReplyDeleteThis is not the western world where you can damn the consequences and get married without your parents in attendance. I'm not sure your man's family will be comfortable with that. You need to gather elderly people to talk to them
ReplyDeleteWitchcraft tribe hating parents
ReplyDeleteMy dear u av to follow ur parents advice ooo, luv or no luv wat an elder sees sitting, a child won't see even if he/she climbs the highest tree. They really av reason and thatz ur ultimate search *the cube of the reason* go find that out
ReplyDeletewow..nawa for Yoruba parents oooh....why do they do that
ReplyDeleteU r d only senseless goat here
DeleteI totally agree with Gloria, family is all you have in the end. Dont look at this on the surface, all that glitters aint gold. Ur guy myt be mightly fine and rich but guess what, dr r many others a gazillion better out dr, bt remember the choice is urs to make. Wateva makes you slip at nyt!

***CURRENTLY IN JUPITER***
For the 1st time in the history of this blog, you have made a sensible comment. Amen.
DeleteYour parents must have seen something. You said they even called him to warn him. How old are you too,are you independent? Is he? Maybe it's more than just tribe. Have a sit down with them
ReplyDeleteThis just tells me you're too young to get married. Develop yourself for now, either with studies or career-wise, and soon you'll be able to make independent choices. It may be this guy if the love lasts, or another better person. All the best.

DeleteIf its only about the guy's tribe,get your elder ones to talk to your parents,thenyour auntys or uncles,in as much as you have the right to be whoever you want as long as you are happy,in theend family is all my dear.
