Many men will argue that once they have gotten a lady's hand in marriage, nothing else concerns them about their wives' family (especially when the in law is female) let alone sending happy birthday sister text to her.

As the case supposed to be, I think a good man should never stop being good and showing concerns when it comes to in law.

Take for instance, a man who doesn't find it as a good idea to say happy birthday sister in law to an in law on her birthday and this person was there when he was getting married to the wife with full support.

The point to be noted is that, either our in law is female or male, they need our love.

I no dey remember my own sef until that very day na another person birthday i go con carry for head dey think

Larryfest, it happens at times like that but when you remember or when someone or something notifies you about her birthday, I think it's lovely if you can manage to tell her happy birthday sister.

Though, as for me, I have never seen a man who won't remember his own birthday. Your own is the first one sha.

You sound like a pervert, you got married to the lady not the female inlaw it's a grave sin to even carry it in mind u sleeping with your inlaw under the cover of birthday message. If ur wife does not approve u sending messages (birthday) to her people then u Shouldn't, cause u knew them through her except your going in for something else and believe me it has grave consequences.

Bro e be like say no be Nigeria you dey live

Whoever is listening to these nairaland or is it Nigerian meddlers in other peoples' families, blame only yourself for your choices.

God gave you common sense, you allowed Nigerians to take it from you.

See how they just meddle in people's families with impunity, that's because you allow them.

Perhaps you think they dont know what they're doing.

Which nonsense in-law?? He/she don bath??

Sometimes, I dey even forget to brush my mouth, then e come be nonsense in-law birthday I wan come remember

It's only my mum I've seen that she remembers almost the family member's birthday.. Her in-laws and my cousins inclusive


On my own part, I'm dumb when it comes to birthday.
Infact, back then, I'd set an alarm for my Ex's birthday but forget before even texting her....

This is just a forum discussion. You say your opinion and people learn from it if necessary. Mind you learning from anyone's perspective is an optional and all by choice. Sending a birthday wish to your in law is not something enforced on anyone. It's a mere discussion.

I'd say you should stay out of other people's business.

Of course you believe nobody has the right to tell you that.

It is funny enough that you had to set alarm to remember someone's birthday . Such is life. We are not the same. God created us in different ways.

You're right. I just used the sister in law as an example because I believe it is female that think high about birthday . It can be anyone from the family. We don't say it's compulsory but it just one of the ways to show love to them.

Even I don't remember my own birthday, it's when I start getting birthday messages from the banks and friends that I remember

Abi now only if someone dnt have wot he is using his time to think of

I forget those of my friends. An in-law’s won’t make a blimp on my radar.

.. And what's wrong if one doesn't remember his or her in-laws birthday?
