I've been asking her for days now....she wouldn't say anything

She's not answering you because her spirit didn't see anything, smiley she isn't ready to let her baby go, it wouldn't have matter who the girl was.

If you truly love this woman don't let your mother's jealousy prevent you from marrying her.

Yes people it's a well known fact that some mothers are jealous of their sons girlfriends or wives. Sometimes the mother feels that she is being replaced.

It's hard to believe that you have been with her for 9 years and no introduction (that girl is a saint). You know what, I think that you expected this reaction from your mom and that's the reason it took you nine years to introduce them.

On the flip side of the coin I'm going to put myself in your mom's place and I think that I would be pissed as hell if after nine years of not knowing of her he brings her to me and says *Mom meet your future daughter* but it wouldn't be anything personally against her I would just be surprised. sad

One last thing, you stated that your mom said that she would no longer have anything to do with you if you marry her, don't you know that is a means of control.

If my mother would say such a cruel thing to me I would realize that she never really loved me and I would move on with my life with my future husband and future kids leaving the door open if she chooses to come in.

Op If you actually follow this, Ure dull, sorry.

So dude told u ur gals has been thr for 9yrs, so u offend ur mum cos of her, what abt ur mum that has been thr for 20+ yrs? Ao old d fvck are u sef?

I'm not against marrying her, Buh be sure ur parent approves... Keep begging ur Mum.

And if I were you, I'd wear dis Sad look all around d house like I'm dying, no 'Good' mother will ignore that.


Thank you.

God said to have a wife is a good thing but I don't remember God saying that a MAN should BEG his mother to let him have one of her choice.

mofeoluwadassah:
you dated her for nine years and you have not for one day taken her to your house? then it means you dont love her

My thought too. @op, you dated a girl since year 1 in higher institution and did not have gut to take her home for ONCE in 9years? You are a player and you did not try at all. You did not love or have any plan of marrying her, simply put.
If you had taken her home during one of the holidays you would have known ur mother's mind towards her and not waste her time.
There is danger ahead for both you and the lady if you ignored your mother moreso that she has refused to bulge.
Where is the place of prayer in all this your confusion? I leave you to it.

Dear op

let me be honest with you, I really won't advise you to marry someone your mum doesn't approve of because most parents are usually right about spouses. what about your siblings do they like the, do they agree? if your siblings like her and your mum doesn't like her, your siblings can help turn your mum around but if your sibling and mom doesn't like or are indifferent towards her then it's big problem.

do you want to have MIL clashes, do you want your wife to be depressed when your family don't put a single interest in your marriage, you might think yes it doesn't matter I will marry her my mum will come along but think about the long term effect. A home where extended family are excluded is not a home, A home where kids can't play with their paternal grandparents.


A failed relationship is better than a failed marriage
no matter how long you've dated if you can see that marriage won't work my dear you have to move on

This is a very valid point

this is were he missed it...at least he should have let her be familiar and acquainted with his family even without saying she's your wife to be yet that would have given then a prior notice before time. It's one issue I had with someone in time past and some always want a complicated and never disclose relationship maybe cos there's someone else that do come to their home

@Op just pray and tell people older than your mum to talk to her on your behalf.



In My family ....you are not allowed bring your girlfriends to the house except if you re ready to marry the person .perhaps I studied far away from where my parents live .

I will implore you to be a bit more patient.
Whatever patience can't solve would be grounded.

Op, I personally hate when an individual is rejecting/condemning something without proffering solution or alternative or close substitute.


You can't be totally angry with your mum.
Ask her to give you close substitute/alternative if she doesn't want your choice for you or come out clear why she is against it (this is to make her realise she is going extreme, just to tease her because I won't accept such too).
Ensure you exhaust all options and carry people she respect along.

If it is not working, stay away from the family house for a long time. Till they care about your whereabout. By then, they will know you mean business to defend your choice/woman no matter what.

The waiting will eventually worth it. You may have more revelations during the waiting period.

In all, be prayerful. God owns everyone's heart and can control it how he likes. He can humble her.



I've already done that... I'm so very angry,i can't bear the thought of betraying my fiancee.my conscience will kill me.

As much as I will advise u 2 marry her, dnt act in outright disobedient. Lifetime is a longtime! First, go to your mum at night, kneel down and beg her and make her tell you wot u must do in order to b able to marry her.

If dt doesn't work, beg your dad to talk to her

After dt, talk to some elders whom your mum respect, including her pastor to talk to her

If all these fail, make your own enquiries (try 2 include spiritual as well) concerning your union with her.


If all go green, marry her.

However, since life is a risk, and if you are ready to risk everything on it, who cares, jst marry her and damn d consequences

its obvious u have a big problem... So marrying d lady will disappoint ur mother... That means ur choice is nothing but a disappointment... Look ma man, if u are ready u know what to do... U dont have a case... If ur mother wants to separate from u then fine. So many people out there have mothers who are already late (ur mother will not die)... If u are a christian u should know that d bible says that a man shall leave his parents and cling to his wife... Ur father has agreed...

This is a serious issue.

do you think your girl is okay?
if yes then talk to your mom, and please don't tell your fiancé what's going on, so she won't hate your mom later when you get married to her.

Don't let the poor lady cry.

WTF!!! 9 years!

ur mom has married so she should have no say in whom you want to marry. Be a man that you are, if you leave her bcoz of ur mum, then you are a mummy's boy.

Yes 9 good years means the both of you have fully known each other... Please do not scatter what you have built over the years because your mom said "her spirit doesn't welcome the girl" she doesn't even have a concrete reason for not liking her... Be wise my brother because marriage is a life time journey, if you fall into the wrong hands, your mom may not be there to suffer it with you... That babe deserves to be your wife and not just that, she has to be celebrated for sticking with you all these years... I tell you such women are difficult to come by these days...
