I've been in a very serious relationship with an Igbo guy. He's nice, handsome and we've been dating for 2 years. He talked about me meeting his family and I was very excited little did I know that it would turn out to be my worse nightmare.
I met his mum and she seemed really nice, but her attitude changed when she realized I'm a Yoruba girl. She immediately told me to my face that I can't marry her son. Her reasons weren't clearly stated but she said she doesn't like the Yoruba people. My heart melted, hot tears rolled down from my eyes; I'm Yoruba and I'm in love with an Igbo "mummy's boy".
I spoke with him about it and he keeps assuring me that it would be fine. It's been almost 2 years now and the family are still not in support of our union. Every time I try to move on he comes begging that everything would be fine and that we will get married. I really love this guy, why I love him I don't know because clearly he hasn't done anything to deserve my heart but... He doesn't have a good paying job yet, so I carter for most of his financial needs and even send some food to his village during festivity.
Just recently his mother called my parents to tell them that I can't get married to her son and asked that I should be warned to stay off her son.
He has travelled to his village for a week now and honestly I don't know where I stand... I really love him but what do I do? back off....there is nothing you can do 1 Like |

Quiet horrible from his mom but the guy should man up if he loves you
Hard to see a lady giving a man in these times, shows you're a great lady and he'll loose if he succumbs to his mum |

My dear sister, it's difficult to walk out of a relationship you are enjoying, but as it is now, his parents has declared their intensions known to you and your family He loves you quite alright but loves you more for being his backup in some financial issues or matters He is finding it difficult to drop off the relationship and he is also finding it difficult to disobey his parents For the fact that his mother has spoken to your parents about their unsupported relationship, just start finding your way out Stop giving him and them those things you do give to him or to them, let them feel the heat as you are already feeling yours You can't be going to the stream with a basket, you can't fetch water with it |

If he really wants u and some of his kins be it siblings or cousins support you, u can carry on. With time, they can help you win the mum over. But if they all are against it, better let it go, no matter how he stands his ground. Cos he wont be happy without his family, and you will have to be trying so dam hard. Too much drama u dont need. 1 Like |

He has travelled to his village for a week now and honestly I don't know where I stand... I really love him but what do I do? It's a blessing in disguise. Let him go. When you marry a man, you're also marrying his family. Don't think that you only have to deal with him - you will have to deal with his mom too. And you may be fine with catering to his financial needs now but it's not sustainable. It will build resentment, especially when children join the mix. Come to think about it, I wonder if he's taking advantage of you because you're providing for him financially. 1 Like |
