MetaBroadband:Well, you could have cleared all the grey areas before the proposal. Fir me, the lady should tell you what happened by herself. It is also very important you see the father of the girl. But you must keep an open mind devoid of bias 1 Like |

Joseph77200: Women can paint and color any situation to suit their selfish interest. Everyone else is to blame for a shortcoming, they are never at fault and it is not their responsibility. They will find a man to blame for it |

Seeing your father in-law is very important traditionally.Try by all means to reconcile them. This is bad omen if you can't reconcile them.You will be treated the same as your father in-law to be.A word is enough for the wise. |

Jovialjune1: I am glad you were swift in spotting the motives of this thread: 1) to stir up reaction warning men from dating or marrying daughters of single mothers. I am shocked that the male commenters are yet to disparage him from proposing to her 2) to accuse women who are victim of male depravity as being bitter. 3) to sham single mothers I was wondering why they will not be bothered on how to navigate this regime with fuel price of almost 600 naira per liter( as men are mostly drivers than women) but still they will not let women rest 6 Likes |

MetaBroadband:is the step father dragging the the Bride price?? Is he really concerned about the pride price and the traditional right? ..if no. Please locate the father. It a respect. Let the father now feel guilty of what he did, he might decide not to show face if he was actually the cause of the problem. You know how some part of akwa ibom behaves, like Etinan, ikot Abasi, mpat enin, onna,.. they are so proud, if the girl mother Was a proud type she might be the one that refused to settle everything with the dad or she refused her daughter from even relating with the man because of ego. That biological father might be a nice man, just that the daughter and the wife refused to come close to him. 1 Like |

satelliteDISH:You don take sides after listening to one party. Hear from both first! This is Africa my brother. The young man is actually trying to do the right thing. He should talk with the wife to be her mother. Then go see her real dad. He's still alive. It's an abomination and forbidden in so many parts of Nigeria for another man and his people to receive the bride price of a daughter who's not theirs. Even the step father will tell them to go and see her real dad. 1 Like |

virginprincess: What if the mother took away the child from the dad because she wanted to marry someone else? I have seen a situation where the mother denied father access to their own child because of selfish reasons so we can't judge the real father without hearing from him first I feel like the mother sold a negative narrative to the child about his real father and now the child is doing same to his husband to be.i think the best is for the man to go find out from the real father, let him go look for him and that is the best way to know what been happening truly |

oweniwe: Wait, you mean if your wife abandon 3 children with you who are less that 5 years old and they are now in their 20s and one of them is getting married, you’d look for her and make her attend the wedding, greet people, drink and merry? Because obviously she carried their pregnancies and she’s their mother just for the sake of formalities? Please answer this sincerely, after that I’ll know what to say to you. And those words are very much necessary. 7 Likes 1 Share |

[Exactly quote author=Creamypie post=123480514]Oga, try locate him, no matter their explanation. Irrespective of his short comings. Tell them your family must acknowledge him. You will understand later. You have to hear from both sides. Your family have full right to meet him and his people.u may be surprised that she deliberately kept her father away from their lives after she met her husband, and us am to pepper the man when shes grown up.na so one wedding we attended in ogwashi uku, delta state, the girl mama no want us to meet her dad people ( dad is dead from stroke, cos of her mum wahala) even the man people were scared when we eventually went to meet them. Her mum made sure she isolated and seperated her late husband from his family, after which she frustrated him to b.p, stroke and eventual death. women[/quote] |

If the girl is using the step father's surname, then it's not necessary to meet his biological father. If the mother doesn't want you to meet the biological father, then no need meeting him. As long as someone collects the bride price, you don't have a problem 5 Likes |

oweniwe: Exactly my point too they don't want accountability and always out acting like a saint, I just hope the husband to be go look for the real father and find out what actually happened because I feel like the mother sold a very bad impression about the real father to her daughter already which made her hate her real dad and now she is toiling her mother path |

Well, I'm not yet married but at least I'm not bereft of common sense. Firstly, Love shouldn't blind you to the extent that you fail to hear from both sides... In a serious issue as marriage, there is no room for secrecy. The both parties are meant to be open and transparent about this... Because it's for a lifetime. Secondly, don't rule out the fact that they might be lying against the man! We don't know what and what stories the mother might have fed the daughter with... Look tell your would-be wife that your own parents insist on meeting with her biological father and also her stepfather... She will bulge eventually |
Re: Should I Meet Her Biological Father Before Paying Bride-Price To Her Step-father by MrDoGood(m): 1:53pm On Jun 01, 2023 |
MetaBroadband: Let me be honest with you, if she and her mother doesn't allow you go see her biological father, call everything off and save your head. The mother has filled her with hatred and she will do same to your children if anything goes wrong. Even her step father will advise you guys to go see him. He's the one to collect the bride price. This is Africa, voodoos it real. Miserable will be an understatement if the father mean her. The mom has poisoned her mind and she's game with her bitter mom. Her mother might not even want her to find out some truth and what lead to the break-up. It's not something you should deliberate about. Be firm about it. No option cos you won't find peace. If they kick against it, dump her and seek for peace ✌️ |

I had something similar. I insisted on meeting the father at all cost. I did meet the father with my parents. In my own case, what I was told was very different from what we found out from the man. Extended members from the father side gave us more gist later on. Guy, look for the father. Even if he is a deadbeat, look for him and tell him you want to marry his daughter. He should be informed no matter what. Never get involved with the step father in this matter. All the best 2 Likes 1 Share |

Wotoporiously speaking I pray I don't marry from a disjuncted family, In situations like this it's very hard to separate the real from the fake. Oga take any advise you want from anybody here plus your fiances, or do the one wey dey your mind, doesn't matter which one you follow but understand one thing, whatever decision you go with, be ready to stick to it no matter the outcome and be unapologetic about it, either good or bad. That's all I have to say...Goodluck on your new found mission 1 Like |

luminouz: Let me simp at least, it is my simping. You who keep worrying about people dumping is the real simp because you are pained your life isn't as beautiful as you want it and wish everyone be miserable as you. I understand misery wants company. You can go about looking for those who don't understand life and how to balance it to deceive. Oga, go learn how to be a man so that you can enjoy your woman and all the privileges that comes with being a man. Trailing and tagging everyone a simp because they appreciate life and understand the act of living only tells of how much of a nuisance you are becoming. As for breakfast story, na where your hair go very finish you dey so dey wait till eternity on top wetin no go happen. 7 Likes 4 Shares |

MetaBroadband: You have to care. My wife dad didn't pay her mother's bride price, death later took him and she married another man As culture demand, she is still his child, we had to go to the late husband family to pay my wife's bride price. We didn't neglect the step father, we still recognised him cos he trained her. We gave him the fathers money even if we paid the late dad family. We just have to get it done. So you have to do the right thing so that it doesn't affect your children. |
