madan: Hi my fellow nairalanders! I just want to know your take on this cus someone really close to me is about to do this. She's so crazy about her lover despite her parent's warnings. Her parents see the guy as not good enough for her considering their social status. This guy is from a very poor background and a drop out, still struggling to survive. He lives with a friend in Ikorodu, who is a driver in a water factory. Her parents have threatened to stop her education because of this relationship. But my friend doesn't give a kick about that knowing that she could destroy her dreams of becoming a Medical Doctor. She just want to be with this guy forever. Now she plans to elope with the guy. Is this rational? Please, what do you think?

The sexx couldn't be that good that a girl in school would take leave of her senses and ruin her life
Imagine planning to run away with a man squatting in someone's shack,a drop out and throw her life away
I have a cousin that did this and today she is a mess
She was in a prestigious private school and somehow met this efulefu that sells signs and got deekmatized by him
You knows those people that wear slippers to walk the whole length and breadth of a city carrying signs and stickers that read " Jesus is my driver"," my enemies shall live to see what I will become" etc
My aunt,a single mother did all she could to prevent her and she ran away finally with this eediot,next time they saw her,the girl was already heavily pregnant
The man couldn't even afford bride price and they basically started living as man and wife in some ghetto part of town,she was barely 16 or 17
The day of the baby christening my aunt had to give her clothes to wear and gele for her head that is how wretched her life was.
This was many years ago
SHe didn't finish secondary school
No university education,probably selling rotten tomatoes at a motor park
She now has 4 or 6 kids,I stopped counting
And her husband is still the same slippers wearing sign seller begging for food to feed his family
That is the path your friend is about to walk down

binger: This reminds me of nollywood movies where Sen. Danjuma's daughter(Omotola)meets and falls in love with a mechanic(Emeka ike)...btw,flip the situation,would the guy(if he were in her shoes) compromise his career for the girl's love? He wouldn't.#fact
seems these nollywood guys dey copy each other sef., it also reminds me of one where ini edo (a rich man's daughter) falls in love with Desmond Elliott, a mechanic.

2 words are most regretable,painful n suicidal in life, they ar;
1. had i known
2. i have been told but i did not listen
may God help us not to miss it in life.

Yomieluv: Are people still this dumb?in 2013 u want to elope cos of one stup1d love?

This guy sounds like a wounded lion!

Btw, I suspect this chick is taking this (rather ridiculous) decision in reaction to her parents' insensitive stance.

Truth be told hardly would parents consent for their educated daughter to marry a semi literate, especially if the guy is a 'NFA'. However, parents should learn to be sensitive to their children's feelings. This would enable them know how best to persuade their daughter and for her to see things in their perspective.

Yomieluv: Are people still this dumb?in 2013 u want to elope cos of one stup1d love?

Love has gone beyond dating a guy cos of affection only,but ensuring the guy is capable of meeting up with responsibilities. Her parents want the best for her,since they know better.she better heed their warning,or she comes back regretting it.no guy,or girl is worth risking career for in this present age.
so u'd rather idolize ur career&ditch luv in d process.The truth is dat neither luv nor a colorful career is everything,but when u lose urself in a career u'd find urself alone at 40(and above) probably with a child born out of wedlock and feeling utterly empty.

OP, you have a solemn duty to save your friend from herself. Don't condemn her when you talk to her: simply ask her some questions and let her answer from her heart no matter how stupid it may seem to you

1. Why do you love this guy so much?

2. Where do you intend to stay if you run away with him?

3. How will you feed?

4. Do you think that your 'love' will survive when you are hungry and homeless? As your parents will stop supporting you when you elope.

5. You are about to throw a promising career in Medicine away, what alternative do you have for your future and how viable is it?

6. Do you realise that if you elope with your lover and for whatever reason he dumps you, you have no where to go?

Let her answer these questions. They are meant to plant doubt in her heart. Gently water those seeds of doubt in her heart, use tact.

Connect with her mother or any other woman she trusts to help reinforce your points. Let her know that you understand that what she feels for the guy is special- a woman is bound to want to be with a man who 'loves' her the way she wants- don't try and tell her it is not a great feeling- it is for her.

However, let her know that the 'great feeling' is unsustainable and is about to wreck her. She needs to be strong and begin to break free of it.

You can do this- please try. A life is a terrible thing to waste.

@ Op, Did u just mentioned 'Ikorodu' abeg that ur friend don enter one chance! I will advise u to seek spiritual help for her asap before it becomes too late. Indeed, 'heavy juju' is at work here! The best thing is for her parents to go meet this 'guy' and give him a piece of their mind to steer clear of their daughter or better still involve the police! cool
