what do these mean:

1. olorun maj ki o pa mi: This means you have been working him overtime in bed

2. mi o ni obinrin mi leyin e, olorun mo: Means God knows, i have no other woman besides you.

3. iwo ni kan ni mo ni: You are the only one i have

4. iwo ni iya mi, iyawo mi: You are my mother, my wife: This is a good thing in the yoruba culture because a wife is supposed to be sister, mother friend and wife. He would especially say this when you take care of him like his mother would.

Is the person saying these things to you your husband, fiance or boyfriend??
