The man you describe here is not much of a catch. I wish her better luck with a husband in future.
Precisely Babyosisi !

If after all that's been going on, you still don't get my point then I don't know what to say.
Submission DOES NOT mean the same to everyone. You can say submission doesnt mean controlling but there are some mean who believe that is exactly what it means. He's the dominating one and she's the subservant one. Do everything I ask and maybe I wont make our marriage/relationship a living hell for you. That is what michelin was talking about and don't bother lying and saying such people don't exist because they do ESPECIALLY in African settings and this goes on from generation to generation. That's what we are talking out against You yourself are going on about how widows are treated, if these men actually cared about their wives wouldnt they think about things like this. Infact if women were considered to be human would they even have to worry about such horrible things happening to them after a demise? Seriously?
You keep talking about what it means to you. Good for you, that's YOU though. There are people they go according to Seun's definition. Sure you can say that's not the correct one but many disagree with you. Do you know how many people are mentally and emotionally abusive, not even physically and use the whole "God said I'm the head" verse? They could easily say that submission means doing everything they say, who's the woman to talk against that when we have people around screaming that if they don't accept that then they are going to hell or whatever it is you people use to force others into following you.
It's one thing to say like Josh did that ohit should be mutual and all that, he did a good jobv on explaining his own idea of submission which i had no qualms with but im not going to go with the general idea because like i said it differs for each person.

Oh he is. He is very good looking, very tall, comes from a good family The only problem is that he is very shy.It took him almost 3 months to ask her out.But she knew he was interested so she waited. Some men are quite by nature and do not like stress.

I believe I already said that MaMaPut used the wrong word in explaining how things go for her daughter.
I think Babyosisi's point (though I don't want to speak for her) is that the change in vocabulary doesn't change the intent. Mamaput essentially encourages her daughter's boyfriend to be submissive to her daughter. She sees nothing wrong in that, but seems to have a problem with Babyosisi's choice to be submissive in her marriage. Babyosisi has specified that she believes submissiveness is not control, is obviously well-educated and likely successful, so she can't be accused of being her husband's handmaid. On the other hand, Mamaput's daughter basically has a lapdog for a boyfriend. He has to be told when to do his homework (!) and when he should go out to play (!) Mamaput--you're sure you no be grandmother? It be like say your daughter get pikin instead of boyfriend  In all seriousness Mamaput, I don't see any difference in the characteristics you condemn in "controlling" marriages and what you positively describe as your daughter's "controlling" relationship with this guy. It's hard to justify condemning submission if you accept it wholeheartedly once the gender roles are reversed.

TOH, I don't know how you guys do things in your family. In my family, we are one "one 4 all, all 4 one". It works for us.
My dad bought a Mercedes E-Class for my mum but he drives Benz 200. What have you got to say about it?
dude you are not making sense. What does your dad doing this and that doing that have to do with me? You just said yourself your mother isnt happy that she's not written down with the properties yet you are sreaming that it works for you guys and that you are all about unity Dude, when you get yourself together, get back to me and as for your outburst to MamaPut, goes to show your ever so low level of maturity.

No one should ever glorify divorce. We all expect our marriages to be for life but sometimes it doesn't turn out that way for one reason or another. I have several close friends who are divorced and I see and hear the agony in their voices when they talk about what they went through. There is no amicable divorce irrespective of what anyone says.
Breakdown of a marriage is almost like a death. It is nothing to look forward to.

Lol tell that to Amy Irving. and I don't see where she "glorified" it. She said it was inevitable for them because she realized that he wasnt a family man. She couldnt take how he was behaving as someone with children and they split, how is that glamourizing anything? If anything I just respect how they are still civil with each other especially with kids involved

GOODLUCK TO YOU. Both of us are Igbos, "eke adahi eli eke ebeya" (thief no dey steal from fellow thieves).I know your tricks. Because you are divorced and your plan is to mess up the hearts of these young girls on Nairaland, e no go work for you in Jesus name. You sent your husband away yourself so live with it, but stop trying to make others follow you.

You're so pathetic. Every word you've said has either been chalk full of immature rants or just you constantly contradicting yourself
One min his mother isnt happy because she's not being treated as an EQUAL in the household, the next minute he's talking about how united his family is.
You're a joke.

chimaze man of little faith you are calling on Jesus? You are like all Nigerian men i know in real life. They all hide their wives from me so that i will not open their eyes. These men are drinking till day break in a bar but they only allow their wives to church and work. One Nigerian man ask me to boyfriend him a married man. I said yes no problem but first we will go together and tell his wife she too is allowed to have boyfriend. What do you think he said?? You men are all the same. cheat on your wives with other mens daughters.

TOH did I tell you that I am English? I've mentioned it times without number that I am onye Igbo, I even dey try sef. English man no go even fit call my name not to think writing it.
and I don't see where she "glorified" it. She said it was inevitable for them because she realised that he wasn't a family man. She couldn't take how he was behaving as someone with children and they split, how is that glamorising anything? If anything I just respect how they are still civil with each other especially with kids involved

So some people have said the young man is a child and lap dog. same gose to all women that are submissive.
The point is that the standard should be universal---if it's good for your daughter, it should be good for someone else's son who wants a submissive wife. You are like all Nigerian men i know in real life. They all hide their wives from me so that i will not open their eyes.
Not that I doubt you, but I wonder why you're still friends/acquaintances with these people. My bros, abeg no Vex but I hate when matured woman like mamaput go come to forum like this that is filled with young people, instead of preaching love and togetherness, she is preaching destruction.
Nna, relax--it's just the internet.

did I ever tell that that I was English OR Igbo? as for your last comment, do you know when they had the kids? do you know when she realized that he was acting the way he does? would you have perfered if she left immediatelyt things started going that way instead of trying to see if things would change? In other words, who the hell are you to judge her experiences?

I go out to the bar and meet them. They ask me were is my husband and i ask them were are their wives. We have a lot of fun together. I keep asking them to bring their wives but they say i will teach them their rights. They want to keep their wives submissive. And while they are spending time drinking way into the night , the wife the poor fool is waithing at home with the food.

A married man that knows that you know his wife is asking you out? This shows he has no respect for you. anyway this shows the type of woman you are.
