I am a lady who is engaged to a man who i plan to marry. But my parents do not like him. he has been violent towards me in the past and has promised to change, but my family think I should leave him and find someone else. what should i do? Can my whole family be right?

he has been violent towards me in the past and has promised to change But has he changed? What if he's merely holding himself in check for now only to unleash terror on you when you are married? |

sweetheart I'm sure you would want to leave your life to the fullest with happy memories but to do this, you must exclude that man from your life he spells the word T-R-O-U-B-L-E

NO. I don't think a whole family can be wrong. But go & ask your family to be detailed about why they don't like him. Honestly, I don't like him b/c he's violent as you say.  Leave him. It'll be better for you in the long run. |

Try finding out from your family what it is they don't like about him and Just like Seun has said, has he really changed or is he just promising that so you wont leave him? If he's been physically violent with you in the past, there's every chance he'll do it again in the future

They are talking about marrage and the family must have told her why. They have beingseeing what is happinging.
They only want what is the best for you .
Let it not happen that they will one day say I told you so.

My dear,marry him. By my spiritual point of view he is not violent, he was acting based on de kind of life his 4ma girl friend imperted in him, he tought u are like that but he is realising u don't enjoy that,but his 4ma girl friend do enjoy violent,even do send him against other men .Do not ask him in de evening nor night but in de morning.I am still in Nairaland u can wire me from here.

- he has been violent towards me in the past and has promised to change -
it's your funeral. - he was acting based on de kind of life his 4ma girl friend imperted in him, he tought u are like that but he is realising u don't enjoy that,but his 4ma girl friend do enjoy violent -
 i'm looking for the point where this justifies her (or any other chic) at all getting a beating. she did not say he was into S&M o! he's been violent with her minus sex. or is there some other form of violence that supposedly gives a normal, non-psychotic human pleasure? - Do not ask him in de evening nor night but in de morning.I am still in Nairaland u can wire me from here.
i hope Mr Seun has built in a neato transport system into this forum-interface thingy, he cud easily make millions. |

When you read about what divorce has done to so many homes in the world, you'll want to be sincere with yourself in this matter. Marriage is for life. That's why you've got to be very careful when you want to say ''yes'' to any man.
You know this guy better than we all do. Weigh the pros and cons of marrying the guy. Do a proper homework on this man before going to the altar. No doubt,you family members meant well for you.
Goodluck.

Never marry a man that hits you or threatens to do so. Adults do not improve after marriage.

Seun, i disagree with with u,men does improve after marriage lot's of parents even uses that 2 calm their sons.

People don't change after marriage. Why should a man improve when he has already "captured" her?

As long as the girl is in her Fathers House the Mans aggression are limited.
He cannot go to her fathers house to fight her.
Once they are married, he will feel free to do what he likes,

honey a man that lays hands on you does not deserve you, it is insulting and humiliating u can't always trust a man like that even if he promised to change,
i agree with seun too. if u can live with him beating you up go on but if not heed your family's advice.

YES with a capital ' Y' He has been 'violent' with you in the past and you want to give him a chance b/c your 'biased & sympathetic' mind cannot see beyond a few years? Ol girl! Blood is thicker than water. Your family is seeing what you cannot b/c they're not emotionally involved. Hence their vision is unbiased. Go with your family; they cannot deceive you. Dish the man!
