My Father Wants To Kill My Dream. by mavaakiti(f): 6:03pm On May 30, 2016
Nailanders, pls help me out with your advices..
I'm a graduate of English Language from one of the Nigerian states universities. I'm awaiting my service. After graduation, I travelled to Lagos state to enroll in a fashion school. I got admitted into a fashion and design academy there in Lagos and I learnt patternmaking. I've always had the dream come to become a fashion designer because of my creativity and my love for it. Through the learning process, I came across a nice good-looking and well behaved guy who wanted me for marriage. I got to know him and he wanted to meet my dad. But the only problem I had was his religion, I thought about it but didn't mind. I went ahead to inform my father about the marriage proposal and that was the beginning of my problem.
Lest I forget I'm from adamawa state, which makes me a northerner. From the day I told my father about this guy till this day, my father has lost all trust in me. His reason being that why would I ever even think of getting married to a Muslim And if that should ever happen, he'll disown me and remove my name from his will. I promise never to marry the guy. Now he said I should leave Lagos and my training to come back home. He's scared I might still end up with this guy if eventually I stay in lagos, but heaven knows I won't marry the guy, I don't know what the future holds but I know I won't disappoint my father.
Now I'm back home, I can't continue my training, a dream I have always wanted in my life. I dont know what to do, I feel like they're robbing me off my dream. I really want to go back but he won't let me. Pls I need your advice on how to convince him to let me go back.

what religion are you? cos the bible says do not be unequally yoked with an unbeliever talk less of marriage. your father was even kind to you, wat were u thinking? u knew ur people won't agree of such man,yet u risked ur training and all cos of what u call love. since u have the foundation, I will advice u to go on YouTube and learn on the videos. sorry but we grow wiser everyday? mind you, I am from the north, I will disown my daughter if she marries an unbeliever.

They say what a child cannot see while standing up, an elder will see it even while sitting. So trust your father, interreligious marriage almost always never ends well. I know you have already heeded your dad's advise not to marry from outside your religion, all you have to do now is make him trust you, convince him to let you go back to Lagos to pursue your dreams. The fact that you came home on his orders first of all will work in your favour. All the best.

Re: My Father Wants To Kill My Dream. by MicroBox: 2:18am On Jun 22, 2016
Northern Christians are just too stubborn..
OP Sit with your dad and promise him you will not go against his wish. fashion design is a lucrative and very big business with readily available customers if you are good at it. tell your dad that meeting that guy is just by the way but your primary objective is to acquire that knowledge and to also see how a fashion school is operated cause federal government would soon start rebuilding and rehabilitation of northeast and to re-integrate the people back to normal society ,they will need skills so having a fashion school in Adamawa state would be of great advantage to you cause many NGO will be interested in using your school as a vocational training centre and that is cool money you know.
Babe! send somebody preferably a male to talk to your dad..

see your mouth undecided so Muslims are unbelievers

Lol my mouth do wetin? of cos Muslims are NOT believers, a believer is one who strongly agrees and believes that;
1. Jesus is not just a prophet, but the first born SON of God Almighty.
2. Jesus DIED on the cross and ROSE from the dead and He is ALIVE.
3. Jesus is the ONLY way a sinner can get his spirit to God. How? By having FAITH and BELIEVE that Jesus is CHRIST, who will Forgive our Sins and Lift our spirit from way down to high up above spirits of Satan, his demons, and even Angels, so our spirit would be by the right hand of God as Jesus is.
So tell me, do u think Muslims are believers?
