You did right...!!!! Better you do that than be asked to vacate the seat.

End Of Discussion.......next!

Why did you vacate the seat when you haven't even seen the person you are supposed to pick up?
The right thing would have to sit tight until you see the wife, at which point you can then open the door and jokingly say something like, Iyawo come and sit here. If she comes, fine. But if she says, never mind, then you guys can just continue your journey home in peace.
On a normal day sef, you are not supposed to get down for her. You started the journey with the husband and she has no right whatever to ask you to vacate a seat for her. Even the husband won't ask you to.
But fear and inferiority complex is a real problem that should be dealt with.
Now, even your action is making you doubt yourself the more because they clearly told you you acted foolishly.
It's well bro.

Good evening nairalanders!

This is what happened. A friend of mine who is like a brother to me and has impacted my life positively in every way bought a new car. We work together and live in the same neighborhood so we go-to work together.

It happens that I do sit in front with him always while the third guy stays at the back. So today, on our way back from work, the wife called for him to come pick her and when we got close and stuck in traffic, I decided to vacate the front seat and move to join the other guy at the back but while trying to go my friend was like guy where u dey go... I say I wan create space for Iyawo and he was like Wetin dey worry u, sit down jor but I insisted and went to the back.

So when we beat the traffic and picked up the wife she was like why is the front seat vacant and my friend said... He left the seat for u... The wife was like, please its wrong, that I shouldn't have left.

I was like its your space and I felt it was the right thing to do, to join my other guy at the back before we get to you.

People was I wrong to have vacated the seat?

You did the right thing bro.

You did right thing. If it happens again do it again. It is the right thing to do.

Front seat, back seat, what does it really matter? We too give emphasis to rubbish in this country.

lichocho:

There are big things in small gestures you never can tell if she really cared or not, maybe she just played along

You did the right thing and i'm surprised the guy did not approve of it... funny and weird

if the wife was going to be alone at the back its a different case.

but since a guy was also at the back t made more sense for you to join him.

Aje!!! You dey motivate me

She didn't caution you. She only made an observation. You didn't do wrong, you made a gesture of respect for her position. She has made it known that you can remain on the front seat if there before her. Try am with your guy side chick first, she go pour you hot water.

Lol i see a less problematic wife. If it was my sister, omo! Na that front seat be her office

i think you did the right thing.

rickleye:


To be honest - Everyone is at fault.
There was obviously some deep seated hatred between the wife and mother-inlaw which peaked during this incident which the husband would have known about.
My mother-in-law always seat in the back, unless I am specifically driving her somewhere without her daughter. But if for some reason, she seats in the front, it is rude to demand that she move. That is something you discuss with her husband in private.
Why I rebuke the hubby is that you leave your parents behind and cleave to your wife and you are both one. Your loyalty is to your wife - your family.
The parents of the husband are liken to the wife's parents - would she ask .....no demand that her own mother change seats. ?

@bold not in this case!
I do not care to know if there is any issue between the wife & mother in law! So long as she had the guts to order her mother in law to the back seat when she is already seated at the front makes the wife the culprit here! Such action from my wife will mark the end of our marriage! It will be more honourable for my wife to tell me to go to the back seat than for she to tell my mom. What insolence? The marriage will end that moment!

For her to even ask.. I mean to open her mouth and ask is one thing. To end the marriage is another.

yes you where wrong you make you friend look like a driver and you Guys are the boss for the wife do it when you get there OK sorry

tnerro1:
Nice, cannot be driving a car and my wife is sitting at the back, why na?

As I buy car, na wifey buy front seat, no dragging that one at all

Even if I were a man, I cannot be driving our car and my wife will take back sit. Even if I were picking her in the middle of the express.

What I'm saying in essence is, one's partner should always take priority over everybody else but I wonder why some people believe their friend should take first place over their wife.

FrancisDiote:
For me it was wrong. As long as the wife met you in the front seat, you should stay until you alight except the husband or wife pleaded with you to move to the back seat.

For me, when am driving whoever sits in the front first as long as you are an adult is ok

Love is respect o. There's no love without respect. Except you don't love your spouse, whoever is sitted at the front seat should respect themselves and get the Bleep off from there.

Besto:
It's normal.

Even my mom then dey always wan vacate front for my girl.

Na me dey tell her to stay jareh.

To her she is like husband for front and wife for back dey always look akward.


So what I do I just adjust my rear view mirror to focus on madam face, come dey use eyes play with madam for back, that one go come dey blush dey form car owner for back..

Hahahaha this is so lovely. You're a good man.

Hmmm

How many times this post Wan enter front page naaa?

My brother if you ask me, Na to buy motor Na sure pass o, make you no carry dey humble yourself anyhow ooo



Anyway 9im make me no like free Ride!

you are not wrong it is not your space when she is in the car

They successfully created a drama from trying to prevent one.

So, when did she caution you?
