He's Igbo and I think his view of religion is an appreciation for traditional Igbo religion (i'm not fully sure what that means), instead of christianity. He was raised a christian, but he prefers traditional religion. Are you saying that there might be something wrong with appreciating traditional religion instead of christianity?

There's nuthing wrong appreciating his traditional religion IF AND ONLY IF you can drink human blood, visit Okija shrine every week to prove your faithfulness to him, human sacrifices, jazz(juju) and reh reh reh.
Who knows? U might just love the mystery around African Voodoo science.

His Nigerianess just sprang up? He wasn't like this? Talking about traditional religion instead of Christianity. . . Babalawoism from some who came to the US when he was young?


Rotflmao! Oh heavens. . . Isn't it obvious ? He is trying to get you to break up with him. Jeez, it is the oldest trick in the book, he's throwing things he knows you are opposed to at you, so you'll go "Eff this, I'm done"

So if i am not into traditional religion, you think there is no hope? I never knew this trick before, sheesh i must not know alot.

p.s he used to have long hair, braided her, no dreads and he was very much the American, all this talk of moving back to Nigeria soon, plus traditional religion and now respect is all new.

It is not about the traditional religion, he is just saying things that will shock you into running away. He wants out but he doesn't want to be the bad guy, so what does he do. . .  3 guesses and the first two don't count

If OP was in the mood to play games, I'd tell her to take him for a spin. . . say Yes Sir to everything he asks.

Bobo Naija - We will worship Ifa and Oshorunga

OP - Yes Sir, what do I need to wear?

Bobo Naija - You will be on your knees everytime I am in the house

OP - Do I need a kneepad for that?
