cry Your guy might be right, maybe you should give him some little time, the love might come back.

After that, You need to follow your inner mind, peace of mind is good in a relationship. Love matters, nobody should force you to what you want. I can't marry a man I don't love sad

The truth is, I desire to marry him because we already have a child together. I love the relationship between him and our son. I want to have a peaceful family. But everything went bad when he traveled out and decided to stay mute without supporting me. I would have gotten married to someone else all along, but my dad wouldn't let me. He's of an opinion I must marry the father of my son.
He's back, not doing well financially. He has explained all that happened, appologied and everybody still wants him for me. He's been so committed and caring since he came back. we're preparing to get married by January, but the issue is this,

I'm confused.

We are always having disagreement and each time we had, I can't seems to forget all the bad ways he treated me in the past.
I always emphasize it to his face. Severally times, he would go down on his knees and appologies over and over again.
Yet, I can't feel that love in me.
Secondly, he don't want me associating with my friends.
These are people who were there for me all through the time he left, especially my male friends. Who always buy gifts for my child. The last time. My ex bought a wristwatch for my son from US, he personally hide it and wouldn't let him use it.
He calls me more than 20 times a day. That alone drives me crazy.
He's always calling to know where I am, who is with me and who calls me.

He always wants to be around me. No breathing space at all as if I'm going to run away.
I can't even have my life outside him anymore.
The last time we had an argument, I told him I can't marry him, I saw his reaction.
He behaves as if there's a diamond in me he needs to own.
I feel scared sometimes. I don't know if this is love or something else.
He has been away all this years, while all these just of a sudden.

I'm confused, once I marry him, we're married forever and I don't want to make mistake.

How, what should I do to make him stop acting all he's doing? He act as if he's in competition with all the men in my life.

Experienced people in the house please, advice.

Red flag. Your dad sef get wahala. What if this one doesn't give u peace of mind cos believe me it will get worse after I do. Men who exhibit such trait could b dangerous.

That he's ur baby daddy does not mean you'll marry him.

Please don't rush to marry him because you feel pressured. If you are a Christian I'll advice you to take the matter quickly to the elders and leaders of your church. What you need is wisdom to know how to settle this man and your dad. That's the only way you can be truly free from this situation. And move on

He abandoned you when he had it all good . . .

He came back expecting to see you dejected and tattered (as per 'after-one'); unfortunately, you were better off than he left you, with lots of admirers and suitors . . . .

He decided to tie you down so your happiness will be forever dependent on him . . . . .

That man will not make heaven!!!

Marry him if you MUST, but don't completely depend on him. Always maintain your independence in the marriage so he won't have the opportunity to step all over you again.

Sex outside Marriage was the first Mistake! I Believe you should have learnt your lesson and Repented!

Marrying one who is not God's will for you will be a Greater Mistake if you are not cautious.

My Advice:
Humble yourself before God and seek His Face for His Choice for you. Whoever he shows you! Just say I do!

I wish women would be as ruthlessly calculative about marriage as a business mogul is about his empire.

Marriage is for life! Any man that cannot give you peace of mind before marriage will never give it to you after marriage

I am married and so in a position to advice you.

1. Why are you confused? Is it that you don't love him but want to marry him simply because he is the father of your son? Or that your father wants you to? Either of these is not a good reason. Marry him because you choose to.

2. He is insecure because of his financial situation. This means one of two things,- he is seeing you as an only hope for a wife as he has no money, so when he does have what happens? Or he sincerely hopes to marry you and is scared of losing you due to his lack of money.

3. Any woman (or man) who can not assure their spouse of their place in their hearts is not good material. It's your duty to ensure he is safe even when not with you. So don't be tired of picking his calls. Sign of tiredness tells him something may be going wrong.

4. What is delaying the union? If you guys cannot make up your minds to settle down within three months that relationship will most likely not work out.

What about sex? Talk true. Does he Bleep you better ? That is the main reason you are confused. Nothing confuses a lady better than an abusive , useless guy who perfom well in bed

Since you are planning to marry him, make him feel comfortable when he is with or without you. Try calling him by yourself and telling him where you are or who you're with. Soon he will stop worrying.

Also, stay away from exes. Nothing spoils marriage than having exes around your family.

Answer a straight point blank .

Do you love him? Remove your child or dad from your mind and answer truthfully.
Re: .. by Shinny1: 10:14pm On Dec 03, 2020
You are deeply hurt and offended at him for abandoning you and your Son when you needed his help...so first accept this and forgive him...cos if not you won't find peace in that marriage....cos everything he does will be irritating you..
Then sit him down let him know your do's and don't..... watching the way he treats it...if he takes it serious then good if not my dear think twice

The first mistake was getting pregnant for him... don't make a life mistake by getting married to him....if you can't handle his excesses cos it might end in premium tears...


If you want to still go ahead then introduce him to your friends so that he will know them and be their friend as well and as for your ex's please stay away from them..and focus on building your marriage....cos the trust you both have is shaking... there's no more trust as before...

OP, I see too many red flags, and if you decide to go ahead with the marriage at this time, I'm afraid it might end in premium tears. In the end, it's your life, so I don't see how/why you keep letting your dad's sentiments stand in the way.

Never marry out of pressure, never marry out of pity. And with all the unresolved emotional bottlenecks already, lady, please you need to take a break from the relationship to sort yourself out. And while on the break, keep away from further sexual entanglements pls.

Give it time, free your mind to think through your decisions wholistically, while you also commit everything to prayers. Light will come, be assured.

Maybe he's truly changed for your dad to insist you marry him.
Besides, your dad doesn't want a messed up, confused life for you, so it's best you listen to your father.
What I've observed is that you haven't truly forgiven him, that is why you take every chance you get to hurt him for what he did, and that resentment is what is holding you back.
