Going to marry at home...just set your priorities right and have low expectations.
Don't go marry because you are looking for someone to pick up after you or carry house chores on her head, or be a breeding machine, while taking nursing school courses per your request and holding part or full time job.

How is it 1990's?
/
It was a fantasy in the 1990s with many scars afterwards just the same way some parents still shun intertribal marriages.

Many Nigerian women are now marrying oyibo sef. A lot of men married to impress their parents and not for love. A lot of women married for migration and not for love. At the end, divorce rate skyrocketed because there was no foundation ab initio.

What can you possibly want in a woman that no woman in UK can give you? I'll guess, you want a woman who will do everything you say and want with no questions, anyways I'm looking for a husband too but my condition is that we'll move to America after marriage, if you agree, hit me up.

@chrisj2 I totally agree with you.

This is part of the problem. Every body wants to tell you to go out more. Go out of your comfort zone. What they dont remember is that people are different. When you pretend to be who you are not in order to meet a lady on a different gear. Eventually when you mellow and become you again, that is when palaver starts.
Like I said. Been there, done that.

Agreed. But it's both ways. It's hard getting to meet anyone who shares the same values.

It's not just the guys.

I don't understand! The post is full of holes... Why have low expectations? What is that bit about carrying house chores on her head wink And as for taking nursing course or holding part or full time jobs - what is wrong with that? In the UK and probably in Nigeria, it will be hard to be one-salary family unless the breadwinner is mega loaded.

It should be about partnership and having more or less the same vision - a good strong and tight family and very good prospects and future for their offsprings; not showing off, keeping up with the Jones and worrying too much about satisfying relatives in Nja and elsewhere.

If he finds the person for himself then he also has to work hard at making the whole thing work because you cannot bring someone from Nja and expect that person not to live like most people do in the UK - as long as it is sensible and not antagonistic then it should all be fine. In the Uk, the man cannot get away with abusing the woman or expecting her to work as a quasi-housegirl or baby making machine as you put it; she will soon leave or throw the man out...

My good people I am in a bit of a situation here and would like to hear from the community. I have lived the last few years in the UK and can say I am in a reasonably "settled" place in my life except for one thing: I don't have a wife and I am getting old!.

For the last few years, going by people's advice I thought it was best to cultivate a relationship here with someone here in the UK, learn about them and settle.

It has not worked out for me. Maybe its my luck, it has not quite worked with me with the ladies over here. I always end up with someone diametrically opposite to my goals and aspirations. The idea of marrying an Oyibo is even worse - things just did not work out in that direction either.

To compound the problem, I my job does not allow me much of a social life. I just cant make it happen without help.

On a friend's advice, I have been invited to come back home to naija and see how things can work out. I have therefore taken a months leave and am headed home for the next 1 month. Our plan is to visit a few good families and places to see if anything can materialise from that.

My people any advice on this? If you were in my shoes, how will you conduct this affair. What will you look out for. What will you avoid.




My best advise is don't make these mistakes:

1. Live a fake life

Do not pretend to be what you're not. If you are cleaning toilets in the UK, let her know. If you're a doctor, let her know. If you live in a poor part of town, let her know. If it's Mayfair let her know.

If there's high crime in your place, let her know. If low, let her know. Come open!

2. Let her know what to expect. Don't leave any stone unturned.

For instance, tell her what £2.000 a month salary will get you there. That is May be 1.1m here, but much over there.

Tell her how much rent is. What it can get. Inform her the cost of doing her hair etc. Inform her what kind of job will be available for her. Her potential earnings. Also, inform her if your job will keep you from home a lot.

Come clean.

The reason why I am saying this is that most Nigerians going abroad don't know what to expect especially when they see how Nigerian returnees blow cash. So when she gets there, she will be expect you're staying in a 3 bedroom flat in a posh part of town. Some don't even know poverty exist in Europe amongst whites.

If she gets there and become disillusioned and feels betrayed because you did not open up, your marriage is half dead already. That's one reason many guys who come home to Pick their wives have difficulties. They loose the respect of their wives

Please don't make the same mistake. it's better you're blunt and honest than suffer the consequences later.

Yes, it is hard especially in the UK with people spread all over the place except for Peckham - lol. Moreover, there is not that much time with people of a certain age and in certain profession.

I have to say that, I do not expect all the values to be the same but certain fundamentals cannot and should not be compromised away; for him, it is overly religious types, loud and ostentatious types and people that cannot help putting their extended family in the way of getting on with their own lives and creating a great future for their own children.

You are guys are killing me... This is so funny! I do not mind the jolof rice and even the parties but please no ASO EBI - how many will one have to buy in one's life time. I hate them! The last one I will buy will be for my mum's passing and that will be it!

By the way, I have a huge extended family: many uncles and aunts on paternal and maternal side and then the cousins, the grand children, the in-laws and so on and so on.

Yes, I am single, but Like I said not desperate and I am not even into having a large nuclear family: its me and mine and 2.X kids. Thank you!

What guest list?

I will be in Nja on gardening leave from January 2016 - for a few months at the start then may be more if I do not get too bored or fed up of the family and the village life in Ogun State. But I am definitely going native and am looking forward... Like I said, just to get the Nja vibes back.

Now time for bed - early start for me... Good night all!
