That manipulating Bitch will set u against your family. You have to know that in life when trouble comes your family will always be the one for you.
See ehh, I am not a fan of people carrying family problems on their head, that is the fastest route to poverty OR not achieving anything but inasmuch as we don't want to be caught into the web of black tax we also do not want to completely cut off family members.
That your girlfriend is already showing signs of a domineering partner that will chase away your family members from the house and only welcome her own people. You have to curtail her or live with a wicked soul.
Pay attention to how she treats other people you will see that whatever doesn't benefit her, she cuts it off.
I don't want any family member to stay with me but I will not tolerate my fiancee doing the chasing. Never! 3 Likes |

Hi guys,
I need your advice on this. It is causing issues in my 2 years relationship.
I came to Lagos in 2018 after my NYSC. Prior to that, I had plans for my older sister to come stay with me, considering how difficult things were.
Note that my married eldest brother was in Lagos before then. I understand that maybe he needs his privacy, but he didn't help in any way (he didn't have to).
When I got the apartment, I met my girlfriend while she was serving in Lagos. My older sister has yet to move in with me, but I have mentioned to her not once but twice that she will soon come and live with me.
I will also like to mention that my elder sister was living with her boyfriend before I came to Lagos. This doesn't seem right to me or to her.
She moved in, and we were living together peacefully. Along the way, she broke up with her boyfriend. About 6 months later, she got into another relationship. The man seems interested in marrying her. And they were making plans for settling down. Unfortunately, she got pregnant out of wedlock for the man. She had to move in with the man.
Now this is where the issues begin. After a few months (after her childbirth), they always have issues. They go on and off. Two times they had issues; she carried her bag and came to my place. Two times it happened, and she stayed with me for not more than two months put together. This didn't go well with my girlfriend. She complained that my sister is always in the picture, and she doesn't like that.
The third time, the man abused my sister, and he beat her up. I went to the man's house with my "married eldest brother." We fought with the man and threatened to arrest him. He pleaded, plus the neighbors and the landlord too. That night, we took my sister away from him. My sister chose to stay at my place until she gets an apartment for herself and her kid.
This really annoyed my girlfriend. She always says things like, "My family does not respect me." That's why my sister can move in to my house knowing that I am in a relationship.
"Why does she like to stay with me and not my brother?" "Why do I have to always be the one to bear the burden?" Note that my sister works, and she can take care of herself and her kid. She just needed a place to stay until she got her own apartment.
She feared that my sister could just move in with her bags when we get married, which I have assured her is not possible.
She claims she likes her space and all. She claims she doesn't like the "on and off" as sometimes she may want to spend a "lone" time with me. Spend weekends... and this won't be possible when my sister is around.
She claims that she has never seen a scenario where an older sister with a kid is leaving with younger brother.
She always give instances where she has never seen guys in relationships allow their older sister to come stay with them.
She claimed that sometimes I should "man up" and say NO to her.
Is she overreacting? What did I do wrong in all of this? Am I being manipulated? Is her anger justified?
N.B My sister has gotten a place for herself and has moved out. Bros, you never see wife wey u go marry. |

N.B My sister has gotten a place for herself and has moved out. I sincerely have a problem with a girl that dislikes or can't put up with my family especially if my family member is not problematic. I also can't accept a girl that shops for excuses to validate her reasons when she should know families and situations are different or is she just unintelligent to know that? I can understand there should be boundaries in marriage bt in a relationship no so why is she demanding for such even before marriage? It shows lack of understanding, empathy and intolerance. I will not deal with any girl who can't handle her inlaws in a genuine and fair manner as she will expect of u if it were her own family member in marriage. Is ur gf wrong? Yes. Is this a red flag? if she can't accept she is wrong in this scenario then Yes it is a red flag. 1 Like |

Then dey talk apartment na 1 room ur mind self go. Are there not mutiple room apartment other than 1 room? She only has right to complain if they were roommates or legally married. I once accommodated my then girlfriend sister & husband for 1year 3 months, we need help at one point of our lives, and till date I do not regret accommodating them because the house was filled with Reciprocated respect and the man was 101% responsible... Infact when me and the mumu girl broke up, I hide it from the couple so they don't feel unwelcome, they found out 7months later... Life no hard, Na we dey over complicate tinx But saw nothing wrong as his sister became a baby mama. Remove the log from your eyes first. |

The truth here is that the girlfriend seems not to be accommodating, stylishly dictating to the guy. Agreed, let say the older sister was unlucky with the man, her condition is apparent enough, so what's wrong if she stay with her brother for the mean time? The girlfriend is not even yet a wife, but still left her parents house and decided to be cohabitating with a guy she's not married to yet.
I don't tolerate nonsense!
Why will just an ordinary girlfriend be saying/doing rubbish towards my siblings that I've known for years before I come across her.
What's the assurance that the so called "girlfriend" is even faithful to the guy?
NB: Not every girlfriend becomes "future wife"
Good characters is one of the top traits responsible man look for in a lady. The girlfriend seems authoritative! She's a good gf |

Marry a woman who understands where you are coming from . Obviously she doesn’t understand, I guess that is exactly what your elder brother is experiencing but he can’t speak out . Deep down in him ,he really wished to help.
I have seen where a man had to move his brothers to stay in his house because he was the first born . Trying to plan a future for them . Luckily he had a good wife , she understood until all those boys were able to stand on their own. Of course there must be frictions but she handled it with wisdom .
Just know exactly where you are coming from. Take this to the Bank , never you marry such woman , you will see hell on earth . Gradually in order to please her , you will be drifting from your family and eventually end up becoming a stranger to your family 2 Likes 1 Share |

So since your sister has gotten a place, so why did you bring up the issue here and what do you want us to do? To me, since the bone of contention has been resolved, there's no issue here anymore.
As for your gf, she didn't overreact and her anger was justified! Every normal lady will react negatively to the whole scenario. And yes! Me too, I've never seen an elder sister that lives with her younger bro time and again without an iota prestige! And why does she keep having relationship troubles? You need your own space abeg! Like, wooowww. 😮 I was thinking something was wrong with me all along oooo. Like how EXACTLY is this girlfriend at fault?? In this matter?? It is very very scary the way the opinions here flippantly talk about women. Some are even saying she be girlfriend, not wife yet? Like for real?? Nor be someone you value, VALUE ENOUGH as a gf you go wife? How exactly can a gf be someone without no worth, but a wife is/will be? Where exactly is that switch going to happen? It's one thing helping your family members, but why the constant encroaching on space? And why not with the other brother WHO IS MARRIED? Those ones nor fit collect nonsense abi? This same situation will easily turn to "disrespect" and control of a simp boyfriend if it was the wife's brother/sister that was always coming to her place to crash whenever he has relationship issues o. 1 Like |

Hi guys,
I need your advice on this. It is causing issues in my 2 years relationship.
I came to Lagos in 2018 after my NYSC. Prior to that, I had plans for my older sister to come stay with me, considering how difficult things were.
Note that my married eldest brother was in Lagos before then. I understand that maybe he needs his privacy, but he didn't help in any way (he didn't have to).
When I got the apartment, I met my girlfriend while she was serving in Lagos. My older sister has yet to move in with me, but I have mentioned to her not once but twice that she will soon come and live with me.
I will also like to mention that my elder sister was living with her boyfriend before I came to Lagos. This doesn't seem right to me or to her.
She moved in, and we were living together peacefully. Along the way, she broke up with her boyfriend. About 6 months later, she got into another relationship. The man seems interested in marrying her. And they were making plans for settling down. Unfortunately, she got pregnant out of wedlock for the man. She had to move in with the man.
Now this is where the issues begin. After a few months (after her childbirth), they always have issues. They go on and off. Two times they had issues; she carried her bag and came to my place. Two times it happened, and she stayed with me for not more than two months put together. This didn't go well with my girlfriend. She complained that my sister is always in the picture, and she doesn't like that.
The third time, the man abused my sister, and he beat her up. I went to the man's house with my "married eldest brother." We fought with the man and threatened to arrest him. He pleaded, plus the neighbors and the landlord too. That night, we took my sister away from him. My sister chose to stay at my place until she gets an apartment for herself and her kid.
This really annoyed my girlfriend. She always says things like, "My family does not respect me." That's why my sister can move in to my house knowing that I am in a relationship.
"Why does she like to stay with me and not my brother?" "Why do I have to always be the one to bear the burden?" Note that my sister works, and she can take care of herself and her kid. She just needed a place to stay until she got her own apartment.
She feared that my sister could just move in with her bags when we get married, which I have assured her is not possible.
She claims she likes her space and all. She claims she doesn't like the "on and off" as sometimes she may want to spend a "lone" time with me. Spend weekends... and this won't be possible when my sister is around.
She claims that she has never seen a scenario where an older sister with a kid is leaving with younger brother.
She always give instances where she has never seen guys in relationships allow their older sister to come stay with them.
She claimed that sometimes I should "man up" and say NO to her.
Is she overreacting? What did I do wrong in all of this? Am I being manipulated? Is her anger justified?
N.B My sister has gotten a place for herself and has moved out. I am not concerned about your sister moving in and out of your house as she like. That's up to you to fix man. What I am more concerned is that have any of you taken your time to look at things from a neutral view to see if your sister is the faulty one? Lately a lot of women are giving their man serious headache and lack of peace of mind for no just reason and as a result of this! So many broken homes lately. My elder sister wanted to carry that leg, our family sat her down and talked to her about creating peace in your home. I will advice yall call your sister and advice her. Nothing dey street for woman wey don drop one and getting older but if her man is the one causing the quarrel for no just reason then her walking away is justified. The reason I am saying this is because women are manipulators, quarrel igniters. When they start a fire for no just reason and get burnt they will wails "He beat me". As for your girlfriend, make her understand that you will set boundaries to enable her have her privacy be it as your girlfriend or later your wife. 1 Like |
