STENON: Ohh come on... angry ke Did I have an angry tone?. This was how I was when I was typing it o... "" Anyways... Let me try to explain as clearly as possible... It might be long sha, but you asked for it ... So don't sleep off while reading.. In this part of the world, in fact in most parts of the world, it's the guy that marries the girl, and by that I mean, he's the one that proposes, it's his name the woman bears, it's his house The woman comes to when she leaves, in most or many cases, her father's house. A guy is required many times to pay her bride price, buy this, buy that, and in some extreme cases of lack, he may even be the one to take care of her family and siblings... So you see for a guy who sees all this "duties" and "tasks" ahead of him...Marriage is something he has to commitedly and dedicatedly plan for... He can't just be carried away by intoxicating feelings of love and adoration for his wife to be... He also has to consider his very very material and financial responsibility. Now that said... Looking at all what the typical guy has to plan for and consider before he gets married and placing that side by side with "what a lady has to consider and plan for" before she gets married... The lady is always ready.. Because she doesnt really do "anything"... even if she wants to do, she's not expected to... She's like the proverbial flower that's in the garden just growing and blooming and waiting to be plucked. An 18 year old girl can get married, whether she's in school, and jobless, she can still get married because she doesn't have to have a house, a car or even an income, after all it's the man who's getting married to her, so the financial and material burden or weight of the wedding and marriage to an extent would not be on her... It's on the guy... In essence whether or not she's broke, jobless and uneducated with little or no achievement she can always be ready to be "married away"... Such ofcourse is not the case for a guy. If an 18 year old guy even wants to get married he must still have put a financial construct in place that would support the marriage. Some days back there was a thread about a 19year old girl, an undergraduate, who wanted us to advice her on whether to get married or not to her boyfriend... Do you think the guy would have had the guts to propose if he didn't have the means to financially maintain a family? I guess not. So you see... Generically, A lady is always ready for marriage And so that it doesn't seem I'm angry.... Take these... and this..... 1 Like |

2 months, 3 months, 1 year, 2 years is not enough to know som1, it takes a life time to know someone. Now do u want to date for a life time before u finally get to knw the person u want to get married to? NO! What is the solution? You define your relationship, whr its going, what's expected etc, if the guy or girl can't seem to agree with your terms on the spot then u should know dat person aint fit for u. You don't av to be in several relationships before you find that one person to get married to. 1 Like |

Truth be told, any responsible man that is ready to get married, knows that he is ready. If he meets that lady that he wants to marry he will just know instinctively that she's the one without any long protocol and he can even marry her within 24hrs and damn the consequences that's just it. Personal example the day I met my fiancee I just knew that it was her I could have married her within the week I met her(this is coming from a career playboy) if not for some family resistance I'm working on right now. My point? You just know when you meet the right person. There is no laid down timeframe. EDITED: Guys make una no kill me, but the truth just have to be told. Ladies, I don't understand how some of you guys think. Your dating a guy whose dress sense, lifestyle, speech, orientation, infact everything about him smacks of immaturity and you're expecting to hear wedding bells within a year? SMH4U. Then you need the cele type of deliverance. He will use you to learn maturity and then drop you like a bad habit. |

Agbaosi Sevezun Gloria Thurs · BlackBerry · I just got home now and I open the polythene bag Ibrahim gave me as my Sallah gift. Come and see five huge chunks of nama(meat) plus cup cakes nah.. This cake is tasty walahi! I always don't get the exact size of my jeans because of my bumbum. If the hips are my size,the length will be long and I'll need a good tailor to get it right. I called Nura and he took me to some guys that can adjust anything adjustable so teyy the 'oyinbo' wey sew am originally go confuse. The place resemble 'agwan tailor'..All guys. Over 20 of them. All these young men are Hausas and Moslems. I didn't feel any threat as I sat there and Mohammed did wonders to my jeans. So,tomorrow now,someone will tell me we are enemies because of religion and tribe abi? God punish devil. I'm enjoying the sallah meat Ibrahim gave me as I type this. Did I forget to tell you I got two cans of maltina from him as well? Life is good jare. G.S Agbaosi(c),2014. |

[quote author=1one post=27034170] [/quote] Well spoken and written. I nw understnd your points better. Looking at what is happening in our communities and the outcome of over-dependence, not fully preparation of Ladies before going into marriage that eventually Lead to Future calamities in various Homes, Disrespect of the Lady among the family members(Inlaws) and broken relationship in the Home, I dnt and I cnt advice anyone to go for such. A reasonable and responsible Lady should have/think, of achieving something worthwhile, tangible and Presentable both financially, Physically, Cognitively, Academically, etc, and apart frm depending on the Husband Status for the maintenance of Future Family. Not even nowadays that Male Lifespan is very short,and People are dying like chicken, what will now be the situation of the Lady if the husband has (God forbid) Untimely Death? * It is good to think Positively and sometimes, Negatively before embarking on an everlasting Journey of marriage* |
