Should I Compromise? ??? by eNKe1: 8:12pm On Apr 11, 2013 |
SO, Here's the deal: am in a relationship with a girl I like. She's cool and all. But there's one thing; one of several. She is religious; and she could be quite superstitious. My thoughts have always been to marry someone who's more like me: irreligious, non-superstitious, independent, rational and ambitious. But we all know how difficult it is finding a Nigerian girl who is not religious. My bet is, it's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a Nigerian girl to renounce religion and all that has to do with it. In the light of these difficulties, my only option is to compromise. That is, go with this girl I like, who is nevertheless so religious that we'll probably separate from each other in only a few years. Her religion drives me crazy; all religions drive me crazy. So, I have got no option at this moment. I'll probably walk down the aisle with her, in the event I'm unable to find someone saner. So, am out here looking for someone saner. . . .for only a period of time. You can reach me, if you are a sane, irreligious girl. Only for a while though, before I eventually make this crushing decision I'm bound to regret. Thanks. In case you are wondering, I was born in the late 80's |

If you know you can't take it right now, don't waste her time. Don't waste yours either. Don't marry her if you think you'll divorce later because of the religious difference. There're plenty of women out there who aren't religious. It really doesn't make any sense to be out looking for someone else when you're still with her. Let her go, then find someone with similar beliefs to yours. And she can find someone on par with hers. |

We may not divorce; or we may. The chances are higher, as I believe her religion will probably drive me crazy. I'll consider your advice. Thanks |

There's no point in deceiving yourself. Compare and contrast: She's religious, Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ are not She's superstitious, Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ are not. She wants a calm guy, Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ want a crazy lady. There's no point of the relationship, her religiousness drives Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ crazy, what makes Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ think Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ can last in marriage. It's better Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ severe the relationship now because both of Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ are jst deceiving one another. Are Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ expecting her to drop her religion because of Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ or is she expecting Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ to bcom religious overnight. Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ are both jst wasting each other's time, so ℓ̊ suggest Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ just end it b4 Ÿ̲̣̣̣̥ø̲̣̣̥u̶̲̥̅̊ both ruin each other's lives. |

Kosigift: Dearie u've got choices, she's not d last single lady standing. Why would u want to enter d union knowing fully well it isn't worth it judging by ur standards?Good suggestion. But where in the world can one find a Nigerian girl who is non-religious? That's like wanting a camel to pass through the eye of a needle. Pretty much the reason am at loss as to what to do. |
Re: Should I Compromise? ??? by eNKe1: 2:18am On Apr 15, 2013 |
Mr..Cork:I actually do. How much Nigerian is a Nigerian mulatto, though? I think I should consider this option more. Thanks, bro. |

eNKe!: when u talk of being religious, there are so many Nigerian girls dat are not! I sense ur fear is whether it is possible 2 find a non-religious girl who is equally well behaved! If my gues is rite den i suggest u set ur priorities right. Know exactly wot u want and go for it. |
