Hahahaha

I can relate.
If I got a gift, she would ask me "who is he? Me and your father don't know him.Take it back."

And When I'm like 'I'm an adult, can't I do what I want?'

Her response? "Go and be and adult in your own house. Not under my roof!."

I resented it. But now I know better.
She obviously knew better than me that no gift is really free.

You get liver

I told my mum 'officially' about my husband about 4 days before I ran away for service.

I made sure we were not in the same place for long till I ran away

This was someone all my family (extended as I schooled in my state) knew and his uncle & family knew me too

I sure must be old

Yes that works too.

So the parents can see you and you will be in the living room.
No chance for sneaking up close and trying to kiss her when she doesn't want to

In dat case, I'd rather take her anywhere else...

Because your motives are not pure.
What do you want to do that you don't want her parents to see? Huh?

Neither am I but it seems like stuff like that happened in ancient times. Now, too many depend on their lovers to show them the good life. Very unfortunate

Good Life is even relative. Yes not all parents might have been able to afford taking their children out ALL the time. But just generally spending time with them.

But all parents can afford to instil good morals in their girl child to recognise that the 'goodness' or lack of it of a man is not the ability to take you out and buy you stuff.

Going for a stroll or drive with my dad with just Okin biscuit and water was so precious to me as a child because i knew my dad was a busy man and taking that time out to spend with me showed just how much i was important to him. My dad would wake us up on Saturday morning just to gist with you ( i used to roll my eyes as a teenager at those annoying 'what's up with you conversations like which teenager wants to truly gist about her crushes with her dad ) but now i appreciate and love his memory more for it.

Girls that trade their bodies are not looking for strolling partners, they are trading with men that can show them the good life, even though the definition is relative. If it was just a strolling companion, they would not have to sell themselves.
