My Boyfriend's Father And Step-Sisters Are Against Our Relationship
« on: April 11, 2006, 02:39 PM »

I love ma beau and ma beau loves me.  The problem is his family.  His pop wants him to go out with a Yoruba girl.  His half-sister, my ex-friend, thinks ill tell her secrets to her bro.  She really said some nasty things bout the whole family, but I haven't told a soul and she decided to blackmail me, telling her other sis that i said what i didnt say.

My relationship is at the edge, though ma beau isn't in support of what they are doing.  He keeps supporting me.  They even say i made him leave his fathers house, but every day I get to hear something ill and evil that they have said about me.  It's either I let them hate me or I tell all what she has told me.

What should i do?  I sincerely need your advise. Sad Cry

thing is his pop used to like me before we started dating

he already had someone he wanted his son to date.

so am like an obstruction.though his mom and blood sibblings are in support.

hmmmmmm, try and tell them to stop and behave like matured people. If its' me, I won't continue with the relationship. Don't like relationship that is not healthy like that as in family members are not in support of it, Thatz if it is me but as for you, try and talk to them  and reason out something with them, are you igbo or anyother tribe this one they want him to date a yoruba girl? goodluck, I feel your pain

No, don't say what the sis said. Fighting evil with evil is no good.

As long as your man is on your side, girl you're fine.

1)  Your boyfriend comes from a troubled family.  How do I know?  The "terrible things" your ex-friend told you about the family (they are probably true), the ridiculous tribalistic bias of her father, the lies your ex-friend is telling her own sister against you.

2)  You cannot fix a troubled family; you will only get burned.  Trust me, I have experienced such a family before.  It seems as if your boyfriend is ok, but he is from the same family, so he probably has his own problems too.  Hopefully, you can cope with them.

3)  The family is doomed, but your boyfriend may be redeemed if he marries with you or another emotionally mature woman and runs far, far away from his family.  Otherwise, both of you are doomed to unhappiness.  Like the rest of his family.  Sorry.

well if ild tell you my side of the gist,

My girlfriends (6yrs relationship) family are muslims, im a christian, they didnt like the idea of us dating at all. They al told her and even tried to persuade her to date one muslim guy like that, even her brothers wife is still trying to hook her up with a muslim brother in yanke. But the issues is this. she ignored all their talks and still stayed with me. Now, my own family just sprung up one morning and said a pastor praid and said we should not marry,  My mum, dad and two sisters are now against her.

Tell me, what should i do,  well i simply told them, that i can't, i wont and i wouldnt.
She belived in me and stood by me when all her friends and family where against us. Now that im making some small money and looking good, ild now let go NEVER!!, not even for the world,

Girl let your Love see you through. Just pray and hope your man never follows his families choice. As long as he assures you not to worry, my dear, don't worry yourself one bit.
and mind you, don't you ever give him a reason to change his mind (don't cheat on him, lie to him and all the stuffs u know he doesnt like)

Be safe, enjoy your love and MAKE IT LAST  Wink

i know this girl that was going out with her boyfriend for 4 years. from the beginning of her college years till the end. the funny thing was that they were even both youruba's. they became engaged after her graduation but the guys parents started giving her stress. telling her to come and kneel down before the whole family to accuse her of some things that were so ridiculous. she was not yet his wife yet, just engaged. i respect her for being as wise as she was without anyones help, she called off the engagement immediately. they were in love but it obviously couldnt work.

am just trying to say that when family members get involved u have to seriously pray or leave while its still early. sometimes when u love someone u have to let them go. it might hurt but it might be the best for u. pray and have it solved or leave while u can. family issues are not rosy at all, make the right decision

Try and talk them into it, unless it just means that you guys are not meant to be together and there is another better partner waiting for you somewhere.   Smiley

I think it immature for people to go into their family member's relationship & try to break it up by all means

They are ill-fated people

If you love your brother or sister as much as you claim you do,

Then I suggest you ***shuuusshhh***  Angry

Don;t go saying bad things that would mess their relationships up

Ma girl , you can't do much

Do your best and leave the rest

If you boo starts to change towards you , Thenn   Smiley

It is time to say ,  farewell

But, if he is still on ,

For shizzle ma nizzle

You aint dating the family member, you are dating him

He likes you , You like him

C'EST FINI

Fuck what the world thinks

***PS: ,Don't forget to pray to God because we can only try to help with what we type

God can always guide you which is which

This might be a confusing state for your boo if his still under them (financially)
take your time and play dumb to their nags and if it does fade of you love would av become strongr
Has long has he's with you . you both can go through them.
But use your head in evry step and never ignore your heart
complicated but effective in all issues Grin
But for his sis--- confont her---don't give in to her blkmail.burst your bubble 2 your boo.before her the she would sound silly when she does.

Family interference in relationships r nt pleasant bt mater a lot as they determine hw far u g u y s can go. If its jst a relationship n you're having a nice time, its a diff thing when u both are thinking of getting married-this s where it becomes tough. If marriage is in view, then i think u need a lot of prayers 4 his dad 2 like n accept u being non-yoruba. If not, let him knw hw u feel n knw his stand.

After a nice chat with zizzle, I realised that the situation is not that bad.  Though the father seems to currently disapprove of her, she's on talking terms with him and the rest of the family.  She should just persevere and love will prevail.  Wishing her the very best in her relationship and upcoming marriage.

Zizzle should just go and sit down. Is it a crime to be in love, if the father doesn't like it then he can marry his son. Who cares!

My advice for you:

If his father comes to beg you in future, tell him you are no longer interested in the relationship, or wait two days to the marriage when he is most enthusiastic about it, then logout. Pronto!

Don't get me wrong but stories like samson and delilah,jacob and rachael,romeo and juliet,bonnie and clyde,  The story prolly didnt end well but they left a legacy worth remembering.You think anyone wil remember them today if the road had been smooth?Even the stepfather of jesus had 2 be counselled by an angel! Baby nothing comes easy.If you believe that love is real then juliet it up.True love conquers all and i believe u guys'll win.
As for those opposing, they'l only end up like romeo's people. Nothing is new here,only that this will be a good romance novella to write and i'm willing to.
Dust yourself up and try again.Pronto!
