My Mum Wants Me To Sack My Househelp by janejjjjj5000: 12:18pm On Jan 10
I hired a househelp in October. She is 34 years old. She tells me she wants to get married and that she is not getting any younger.

My mum is around now on a visit and when she heard her saying it, my mum told me to send her away so she will not snatch my husband.

My mum said that people like that when they get too desperate can come up with all kinds of ideas.

I trust my husband but my mum's words have been playing in my head.

I would appreciate your advice.

Thank you.

Be fair enough to let her go, not because of your mum's words but for her future.
She's 34 years old, she also has needs and desires and has declared she wants a family… so just let her go.



tonicyril:
Don't talk like she's the one tying her down...

Why do people reason this way??


You're the one reasoning negatively because you did not read my comment to understand, but rather to reply.

Nobody said the OP is the one tying her down. But she comes to the OP's house to work everyday, that even the OP's mother had advised her to let her go. Or is it until the OP comes to post shocking stories before you tell her why hasn't she let her go since?

The said woman declared she wants to have a family, I've heard and read and seen similar stories that end up in tears because the right steps were not taken on time.

This is not about labeling the lady a husband snatcher, no, I'll never call her that, but you don't trust people too much till they come into your relationship, and even replace you.

So @OP, if you value your relationship, let that lady go.

You don't have to ill treat her; don't try that. Just pay her, tip her, thank her, and tell her you'd no longer be needing her services.

She comes from home and works just Mondays to Thursdays. She does not live with us.

You should let her go to find her own man and get a life she desires and not about some snatching shit. No person can be snatched without their knowledge and full participation.

Does she see it as a regular job ( I go to my place of work which happens to be Mrs. Jane's residence and I do my job which happens to be cleaning/ housekeeping) or she sees herself as a househelp ( I am Madam Jane's slave/househelp)?

Nobody can snatch anybody. Your husband isn't a piece of bag, or a purse, that thieves can snatch. He has to decide to follow another woman.

Those of you telling Jane to sack her, if you lose your job for no just reason this year, I hope you won't feel bad about it? What you wish for others may come back to you

This is another reason to not talk about your personal life at your workplace. It's not only when you're abroad, even here in Nigeria, people can weaponize your statement against you.

Imagine if the lady never spoke about her wanting to get married... She'd have been the perfect maid and all would've been going on smoothly.

This life sha... 🤐

Even if your mum doesn't ask you to let her go, you should know it is only right for you to let her go.

Why will you want someone to continue to serve you at the expense of her her happiness and goals?

Please tell her to give you some time to find a replacement.

Nothing is impossible, Nigerians have a dark mind, it has made it difficult to trust people.

You may wish to let her go, but that wouldn't stop her from snatching your husband if she earlier wanted to.

I think She shouldn't loose her Job

If your house help is not fine, does not have shape, does not have big back side and does not have nice shaped oranges at the front, then you have nothing to worry about grin
