mrblessed:
It breaks my mind why you instill on defending what is vile and barbaric. Oh, she is ethnic Yoruba just like you. But Yoruba as an ethnic group is not on trial here, Igbo is. Therefore, any and everything she said about the Igbo must be true. I want you to read your defence slowly, and see how evasive you were. In keeping with the malicious scheme, you disingenuously refused to stay on the subject of discussion. You didn't want to mention it because you know your friend was wrong, instead you double down, citing the existence of an unimaginable hatred and tension. So much for defending what is overtly indefensible.

Op I certainly understand this just that mine was a little different.

I got a marriage proposal at 20 from my first wen I was in my third year, told my mum and she said I should marry the guy sharpaly because I'm fat. But I felt I wasn't ready and at 20 I have my education to tidy up first. He left me and quickly went ahead to marry someone else. At 21 again I got this loving guy that was bent on marrying me again, he begged and persuaded me he also involved mum. I turned it down again cos I told him to wait a while but he was in a rush to wife me which I found choking. My mum took it personal as she wanted me to settle down on time because of my stature but at 21 gosh! I can't just get married like that joor. The guy also went and marry another lady after sometimes later.


Later I told my mum how I felt about it and she reluctantly understood my plights, actually my dad didn't know about all these proposals as he won't allow me to do anything against my will.

Fast forward to now, I'm 28 and not married, my father that could take my side is gone to the other side #ripDad.
She won't allow me rest as she usually refer to what happened whenever she wants to remind me that I'm getting old and not married.

So op I will say follow your mind ooo and need I say that I don't regret turning down those proposals. I don't want to endure marriage simply because I was coarse into it. Lemme make my decision and face the consequence of it not putting the blame on my mum.

This is 21st century make your own choice.
Thanks for sharing your experience. It's exactly what I am going through just a bit different. Mother wants us to get married because they feel they know what is best for us regardless of our feelings. You had it better then because you had your dad. I have no one on my side. I hope you meet the man that will love you and your imperfections. Thanks again

The way you people of this generation see love is different from the way our fathers saw it, you guys want to physically attracted to the man, you dont have to be in lust before you love someone,I was gonna really explain it's not even worth it among this nairalanders, this is why Christ said the children of this generation are "wiser"(educated/indoctrinated) than the children of the Light
Physical attraction is important. You must like someone physically for one reason or the other e.g, eyes, height, brain and speech. You can't find someone physically repulsive and love them. Sexual attraction on the other hand is different. You might not be sexually attracted to someone at first but do so as affection deepens. I understand you , my bro. I want to love someone so much that I want to spend the rest of my life with them. I did not say sex or lust. I don't love him. I might be a kid but I am not stupid

To those who think I am a loose girl who is sleeping with her boyfriend and should have sex legally by getting married. I want to say that while that is a wrong reason to get married, my parents trust me. My dad even told me I have not failed him as a daughter. The insults should stop pls. Thank you
Re: Help! My Parents Want Me To Marry Someone I Don't Like. by Toniaeloho(f): 2:11am On Nov 23, 2016
The country is already bad enough. Pls relax a bit on the cultural fights. My problem is not a cultural thing so don't see the need why we should insult each other. Everyone likes money, the Igbos are just industrious. Please forgive whoever started it. She meant well for me but offended my Igbo peeps in the process. Sorry o. Thank you all for the advice

Yes, I won't raise his hope by making him believe I will marry him. I won't marry first. I will think of your marriage plan

if I defined what love is to you, you would love the person regardless of if they were attractive or not, but I do get what you are saying but attraction is not the key to love someone,that is if you knew what love is,now if I knew you personally, i would break it down to you, this is the reason why I have women who can't just leave me(not bragging), they say they are stuck, because they've tasted love and know that it's totally different from the love people talk about

that is what pride, western education(indocrtrination) being self-centered and putting yourself before a man does to you women of this generation,most of our women was never like that during our forefathers time, you don turn your husbands to boyfriends, i can totally relate because i had a girl like that, first it was masters education, now she's saying she wanna make enough money and she's about your age, i guess i'm not speaking to her.Go ahead and live in your 21st century thats why women compasses the men as written by the Scriptures and seven of them will ask one man for marriage.
