When I first got married, I used to make the mistake of over flogging things when I knew I was right and I would over talk . . .to the point that I will misjive. Guess what! its the one misjived sentence/word that he will pick up on and he will use that. Thanks You! This is me right here!

I think Baby mama touched on inlaws...mother-in-laws to be precise. I know it's going to be hard, but do everything you possibly can to win her over to you. If she isn't literate, make allowances for that and don't judge her too harshly. Treat her exactly the way you'll treat your own mother - with love. Every human responds to love and your mother-in-law is no exception. Listen to what she has to say and don't argue with her - give her that respect. But remember, even though you listen quietly to her, it doesn't mean you agree with her. Sounds like your wife is from a very close-knit family and you saw first hand how she and her siblings reacted when they felt you were against their mother. So avoid getting into an argument with her mother. Humour her and suffocate her with kindness and love. In time, she'll change for the better. Just keep strong and don't despair. |

Baby mama: Wow.. This is too bad.. How can an adult degrade herself to this extent. That's the easiest way to lose her dignity.. I quite understand her being jealous, but she should have handled the situation like an adult.. Some women sha.. |
Re: Making Love & Raising A Family by Nobody: 7:22pm On Dec 14, 2013 |
HOW DO YOU HANDLE DISAGREEMENT? If you have disagreements, does your boyfriend/man have good conflict resolution skills? Or he always has this attitude of it is never my fault, or is even sarcastic, use unprintable words on you or even worse, assaults you? Ladies, if this is a pattern, this is very dangerous. If he can't handle disagreement when single, how would he do so when he is married? BEWARE! |
Re: Making Love & Raising A Family by Nobody: 7:30pm On Dec 14, 2013 |
coogar: Lol....for someone lyk me who can over-talk, dis is definitely one good way of catching me. He go just keep quiet nd be watching while I keep raking, when it's tym for apology, i'll be the one to start apologizing again. Me, i use to ask for my own sorry oo...something lyk 'am i the only one that would say sorry'? *with d cartoon face* |

They will leave every other thing you have said and pick up that one error.. What i do now is that i think before i talk, no matter how angry i am at that particular time.. Because i know he is listening and might pick up something.. |

At times it good to give I don't care face when there is an argument than talking so as not to misyan. Especially if u know u r right. Make ur point known and shut up. Let him do the talking and u just sit and listen. If he didn't apologise, get up and go about ur normal biz even though u r fuming inside. I tell u, he will be curious and a little bit scared. U give him a blank look if he tried to subtly get u talking. Most of them r very uncomfortable with this and they end up misyaning and eventually apologising. For the bad gals, u can capitalise on d misyarn too. Gals r wise up there, its just that they r too afraid to explore what nature deposited in them. |

Le chemin, La verite, La vie. The hardest part is how to deal with in- laws. The best thing to do is not to allow them in your family affair. Keep your secret secret. Involving them may spell doom. @ Babymama, i sincerely hope that one day, you will become a good marriage counsellor. Thank you very much. God bless you. God2man. 1 Like |

That is the issue we have tried to address earlier Coogar,dayo,jennykadry and ihedinobi addressed the part about waiting vs testing I wanted to wait but I was tempted and we test drove and test drove some more .thank God the trumpet didn't sound then It is tough with someone you are passionate about We actually had to do the court wedding earlier because we felt guilty about chopping before marriage My mother said no chopping till white wedding,I ignored her,we were already legally married by the courts so chopping was going on uninhibited |

I think its a female thing to talk talk especially when you are talking to someone who is quiet or calm Or says must we talk about this now.Like most people have said, I would practically not sleep all night wake up and be shooting daggers at him while he is blissfully snoring away .One day I thought to myself haa you will just give yourself high bp over someone who is just doing his own thing.So now like YPP and baby mama said I just bite my tongue and say nothing.Blank face even though am boiling inside. .He ABSOLUTELY hates it. .So its me that should be talking like a broken record when someone is watching Match of The Day and probably did not hear half of what I was saying.Naaa two can play that game |

dayokanu:Would you say that the man really loved the woman? Men fall in love and start buying flowers that make them sneeze, taking the trouble to make themselves more attractive for their lady, building up their finances to be able to give her beautiful things and make her comfortable in his home. Is it in sex that they will fall back? Ahn ahn na. That is where they'll unleash every bit of their resourcefulness. The guy could hardly be said to love her, bro. Nobody needs me to say it to realize it's true. |
