Sorry 'mature' has no past tense...sorry for pointing this out, I have made same mistake overtime and I was corrected where I least expected.

If only you're using it as an adjective.
Sometimes, it functions as a verb and thus, has a past tense.

Adj: He is mature.. (mature is an adjective(describing him); 'is' is the verb (state of being) )
Verb: He matured a lot.. (mature is the verb. 'a lot' is an adverb (showing degree) )

Why are certain d1ckheads focusing on the gay part?
The main issue is the ripe age for a guy to leave his house!
If he had said something like 'He wants his girlfriend to move in with him', you guys would have ignored that though immorality is a sin too.
I hope one of the bashers is not a straight guy still living with his parents and hating on a gay dude living on his own.
Life is cruel. Everybody knows.

I wonder o. Thank you.

I've dealt with far more hateful comments on NL in my earlier days on NL, so comments here regarding my sexuality only make me laugh, as I feel this isn't the thread to start sexuality arguments. let them keep wasting their time.

Perhaps you're missing the point. The treatment he is getting is expected. 99.99% of Nigerians would openly apportion 'being gay' as being outrightly abhorring and frankly, he's had some support so far because this is a faceless forum. Instead of fighting what you can't kill, find a way around it. That is what you'ld term a 'constructive reaction'.

Well, I have to say your presentation is quite complicated. The 'gay' part was unnecessary if actually your problem is with your parent's resistance. You drew attention to yourself instead and that is leading everyone to reflect on that 'unorthodox' element of you. That s by the way.
Naturally, every parent should be proud of their 'millionaire' son at such a cute age. Your progress should be their joy. However, since they're being negative about your decision, it may stem from the following guesses.
1. They probably don't believe you have enough cash to live alone yet.
2. They probably don't trust your decision-making yet. Review your activities while living with them.
3. You probably have unfulfilled obligations/responsibilities towards siblings or themselves and you are 'running out of reach' already.
4. They think you need a partner to help you manage or a family to 'utilize' the finances (before the tough times come, they fear)

About the marriage part, it would seem you aren't interested in the opposite sex (yet?). Don't expect any favours or consideration when you finally break the ice. Expect NONE at all. If you get some, just take it as a plus. But before you do, put your HOME in order since you're financially equipped. Make sure the needs of your siblings especially are not straining your parents. They may cut you off when you tell them you're (hehehehe).

Wish you luck! You need lots of itgrin

Mr Gay, u moved out because u don't hav d opportunity to sleep wit ur fellow man wen ur in ur family house. So u moved out so dat u will hav ur freedom.. Don't give us dos flipsy reasons.. Keep it up.
masonkz:
So I recently moved out of my parents' place at Ajah to my own mini flat at Oniru. This happened about 2 months ago, January precisely. The problem is..my parents have been angry ever since I took the decision to leave.

The facts:

I'm 24
I'm the third child of five
I've been working for four years in the corporate world.
Intelligent, smart, very nice, the dream of every parent, except for the last part...
I'm gay.

Reasons I moved out:

1.The traffic from Ajah to my work place in VI can be killing and I have not intention to continue that way into the future, whatever number of years my parents may feel I should stay with them more for. I hate spending time in traffic, to and fro, and it can be very much frustrating for the most part.

2. I need my privacy. My parents are the very clingy type who wanna know every thing that's going on in your life. Who visits you, who you visit, the state the person is from and even down to the person's local government. If I dare stay a night out of home, even after giving them an excuse, na quarrel the next day be that. My mum feels i should actually "marry" her first, before thinking of marrying any other girl.

3. I actually wanna start distancing myself a little from my parents, to slowly let the know the real me..and the fact that their expectation of me may not hold, especially with me being gay. I feel if I start distancing myself, I won't have to be totally depressed, along with them, in the event that they finally get to know about my sexuality...which they may soon come to know about.

Apart from that I just feel i need some space at this time of my life. Just staying on my own. I probably don't have enough time before the talks of marriage starts creeping in and the pressure starts coming from all angles to get married to a girl. So I just wanna have the pleasure of actually living my life while visiting my parents and siblings occasionally. So far I've been enjoying staying alone. Finally feel I'm free from just so many ropes. I can invite anyone over without having to explain myself, keep late nights at the office without having to feel the need to report at home why I'm staying out late, or even party out late in rare cases.

Like I said the whole concept of staying alone doesn't fit in well with my parents and I often see the sad face my mum wears whenever I visit, and it's starting to make me feel guilty. But again, don't I also deserve to be happy on my own?? I've tried talking to them but they still feel I'm too young to be staying alone, and that it's just not right. I mean this is four years of me being financially independent. Why should I continue staying with them.


While all these may be too late since it's been 2 months already, I'd still like to know people's opinion on this. Maybe I'm the wrong one, or maybe there are just some things I still need to discuss with them. Dunno . What do you guys think?

Matthew 19:11 - 12
Jesus replied, "Not everyone can accept this word, but only those to whom it has been given. For there are eunuchs who were born that way, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others--and there are those who choose to live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it."
Do you know who a eunuch is? Dont quote the Holy book wrongly.

When every body come to know this how will people regards your parents, or will they say your parents train you well ? Let me tell you whatever you think you are having now will gradually leads you to your doom. Repent and ask God for forgiveness for your GAY attitude. My God will help YOU.
