To come and stay as what? Do these relatives not have their own homes? I for one find I difficult staying with couples or another family.
We should respect other peoples privacy. I dont like people invading my privacy even as a single talk more as a married couple.
Come visit and go that very day. If by error, you stayed till late, by next morning you should be off.

You are really making a big deal out of this and it’s wrong. What did the Bible say about a man leaving his whole family and cleaving to his wife? It was clearly stated there and the woman has the right over her home unless you don’t see her as your wife truly. If your wife decided today that your brothers should be off, you are to comply because even our Father Abraham complied to Sarah when she made such request, so who are you not to do same?


The problem isn’t even accommodating relatives, but accommodating relatives who only cause more problems in your marriage. As newly wedded couples, it has always been strictly advised not to accommodate anyone until few years, as both still need to get to know each other more. I’d rather have a very beautiful distance relationship with my in-laws than live with them and let the self respect disappear over Maggie issues? It is just common sense, and unless the situation is a life threatening one, it is really not advisable as they might even bang your wife if possible lol even if they are ladies, which is even worse, your marriage might not experience peace for the first few years! If your wife is okay with it, fine...let them in, as some people usually don’t mind but if she isn’t, you shouldn’t impose this decision on her. For instance some ladies like to walk around naked in the house, but having relatives around would obviously hinder such, then she has to be fully dressed all the time. Anyways, it is the couple’s decision to make and what works for A might not work for B.
how about some of us that are Hindus, atheist, agnostics, Buddhas, traditionalists.. Do we have to obey the "cleaving" theory of Christianity?

As 4 me O, B4 marriage my family comes first. After marriage, my wife comes first. Nonetheless, my relations can live wit me as long as dey dont disrespect my wife
Intelligent comment.

And in addition, my wife should not in anyway disrespect my family even though she comes first.

OP u are very correct, after ur blood family have finished raising and molding u, one woman will enter and start forming 'my husband' while she was never there in the beginning. some migth even leave when the going gets very rough but ur blood family will still be dia for u, they were around when u have nothing and will still be around when u have everything,


a woman was complaining about soup in one thread because of the Hubby's brother, what if it was her own Darling junior brother? Let us beware of such stingy and self-centered women.

I don't agree with the later part of your comment. That woman's complaint in the other thread is 100% genuine. It is total and utter unacceptable disrespect to a man and his wife if the man's younger or even elder brother has to stoop so low to dip his hands in the woman's pot of soup.

It is completely inexcusable and should be condemned massively and in totality.

Women must understand that without those people around her husband, there will be no 'he'. These are the people that helped shaped the man's life. Whether they contributed positively or negatively to the man when he was growing...woman, accept them and give advice to your husband tactfully when necessary. I was surprised when I read a story of a newly wedded woman here on nairaland complaining about her brother in law taking food from the pot, breaking spoon, waiting for who to greet each other and so on...haba. I have known a man that divorced his wife just because of this attitude. Pls ladies, be mature mentally before saying I do. Accept them, and whereby for their own selfish reasons they don't like you and wont want you to have peace in your own husband's house, God will surely visit them in anger and fight for you.

Do you know the truth of this matter?
No lady can successfully separate her in-laws from her home without the help of her husband.

No women can separate you from your own people except you want it to be so.

I don't blame women that stop their in-laws from visiting or staying with her in her husband's house because I know that it is what their husbands want.

But their husbands are smart pretenders who put their wives at the front putting the blame on their wives to escape the wrath of their families.

Free the women! They are not the problem.
Their husbands is!!


You underestimate women. They are naturally manipulators, same goes to telling lies. That's how they are made, you need to understand that and flow with them.

I think you really need to study more to understand women.

For me I think women always get it wrong in saying no one should visit them when they are married, especially husband's relative.

As a married man I don't think after the support some of our relations gave to us before marriage should lead us not accepting them to our home because we're married. This sends a wrong signal about a wife and people should take note of this.

My wife has been very comfortable allowing my younger ones staying with us because during our courtship she knows I don't joke with my relations especially my parents and younger ones and I defined it to my relations also that no one jokes with my wife.

So in the house, everyone knows his boundaries And we are all Happy and my wife confesses that too. But that doesn't mean that sometimes misunderstanding doesn't come No!

Women should understand that these our relations have played very important role in the major parts of our lives. So meeting you as a wife in a later path of my life should make me deny their access to my home would not be easily possible.

Summit to your husband's decision on the home staying matter, if you want to have a happy married life.

story..Die first den we can judge from ur principle..

You are among the few people with common sense. I cant even feel comfortable if I was a man dishing food from my brother's wife pot. If she ask me to dish my food , I consider that an insult.

Hello, before you open your mouth to talk trash, "put hand in pot" is not literal. It's a way of saying someone is taking food from your pot, not literarily putting their hand in pot. Let's be guided. The lady even talked about his brother in law spoiling her spoon in the process.

Women must tolerate ? really ? tolerate nonsense in her own home?

I hope when your wife's siblings also have misunderstandings with you, you'll tolerate so you can also have a happy home? undecided

so your relatives relocating to your house is a true test of love?
someone creates a topic to express her pain in her barely four months marriage and you create a counter topic, to achieve what exactly? kids everywhere!
thank God for the few mature ones who gave sensible comments.
