FamilyRe: Marriage Within Or Outside One's Ethnic Group by BellaElla(f): 7:45am On Aug 30, 2016
The thing is that people that are not in inter tribal marriages see it as one big deal. It is not biko. I am a full bred Igbo woman married to a full bred Yoruba man and honestly our tribal differences are the least of our problems. Maybe it's cos of our backgrounds, or we are just two kpomo hearted people that care less about what people say cheesy. When my husband is on the phone with my in-laws, he speaks Yoruba, when I am on the phone with my family, I speak Igbo. We tell each other what was said and convey regards. I honestly haven't had a hard time in my marriage cos of tribe. I dated Igbo men b4 marriage but we conversed in English. Marriage is so vast that tribal differences should hardly matter. That's how I see it anyway. I married my husband cos of his heart. It is not easy to see someone in this our time who is ready to come back from work and still cook for you, while u stretch ur tired feet with remote in ya hand grin. Someone that insists on ur input before decision making. These were the kind of qualities I was looking for and once I saw them in him, tribe was a non issue. Most of the men I dated from my tribe expected me to wait on them hand and foot. Kolewerk o.there were objections from some of his people and my people but we were footing our bills by ourselves, we couldn't be intimidated. Now everyone has come round especially his people after my dad collected 100 naira as my bride price. They Cldnt believe it as their main objection was that Igbo girls are too expensive to marry. The funny thing is that he had broken up with his Yoruba gf before we met, so between both of us I don't even know who is more detribalised. The only thing I miss is not traveling to my village every Christmas cheesy

HealthRe: Pregnancy Are You Pregnant Or Going Through A High Risk Pregnancy,,lets Talk by BellaElla(f): 4:41pm On Aug 22, 2016
mama sugah you are absolutely right about the testing thing. the stories we hear these days are horrible
this weekend I will do that o, thanks for saying this.
mama twogreatnations , it is very easy for husbands to declare that there would be no live in HH cos they are not the ones that would pass through the stress.
are you ready to cook, wash plates, clothes, go to market, take care of your self, attend to two newborns at once? after all the vigilante you do for night? can you still kpekus at night, wont you resent your DH?
my sister it is not easy, agreed some househelps are a handful but they are necessary evils.
would we now say we would not drive because we know someone that died in an accident?
you can get someone that only does house work for you, while u focus on ur babies.
if you don't like her, fire her, hire another one.
find a way to convince you DH, if u go lie give am that doctor shouted at u for being too active, go ahead
a womans life is hard enough as it is biko, don't let work and babies wear you out so soon o, so you wont age 30 yrs over night
before I had a househelp, I would wake up by 5am, wash, then go to work by 8am, come back 5pm, straight to market.
DH didn't increase by monthly money o, na only try o, sorry o, weldone o, ur hard working o, next day the same thing.
as the househelp came, na still the same monthly money I dey get, plus the plenty rest I dey get, I will just come back and stretch my leg after a long day at work.
there is no reward here on earth for stressing urself to please man o, unless if the reward is in heaven grin grin
HealthRe: Pregnancy Are You Pregnant Or Going Through A High Risk Pregnancy,,lets Talk by BellaElla(f): 12:35pm On Aug 22, 2016
mama olubankemi how old is your girl
I think small househelps are actually very troublesome to keep and can be mischievous too.
when I told my mom I needed a HH, she went to the village to find me one 9 yr old pikin.
I went to check cost of registration in school for her, 40,000. whaaaat!!!! I will still feed, cloth, take care of any sickness etc.
I told mumsi not to bother, I got an agent
the first girl he brought for me, I sent her back to him the next day
the babes breasts are as big as oranges embarassed embarassed embarassed , how did I know?
she left the door open when she was bathing, I called her and she came to answer me wearing only pant and tights, no bra or top o
I saw her bare boobs like 4 times within 2 hours, and she had her own room o.
she would come and join me and DH on the chair in the parlour as we were watching tv.
DH even shouted at her like 20 mins after she came because she was just eyeing me when I wasn't looking. 17 yr old pikin.
I told her she would go the next day, that I cant afford to pay her, she stole my new clothes as she was going. shocked shocked shocked shocked
agent brought another one.
I liked this one once I saw her
she has her issues though bit we work around it.
first thing I did was to get her towel, sponge and brush
also bought her deodorant, a roll of soap etc.
I went to the bank with her and opened an account for her (na me hold the atm sha) she cant runaway without me knowing tongue tongue tongue tongue
I have done small shopping for her ( cloths, bras, etc) and she has not stayed with me for more than two months
she says she doesn't want to touch her money so I pay her salary by transfer, she gets the alert, I give her small money for recharge card.
She is also 17 but far better and more respectful than the first one.
I treat her very well because I know how I treat her would be how she treats my pikin in my absence.
and I want her to derive pleasure in staying with me, not just cos of salary.
she does all the housework, irons, goes to market etc. she has started cooking noodles and the likes for me sef.
I give her money to cook her own soup, then give her provisions for tea once a month, if she like make she lick am finish
b/fast and dinner she eats what we eat.
that's the method I have been using and its working for me, though I came back unexpectedly one afternoon and caught her cooking rice grin grin
you cant win them all. personally, I think its better to go for more mature maids, than small children, their wahala is too much. their parents also expect too much from you. if you beat am now, people go dey shout child abuse cheesy cheesy
what people fear is that the mature house help will collect their husband but for me I cant be bothered biko
I cant think of my baby, work, food , and also think of how HH will seduce DH. undecided undecided undecided
But anyday I catch them making goo-goo eyes at each other, then out of three of us, one person go die o angry angry angry
FamilyRe: Why Do Most Wives Deny Their Husbands Sex? They Need To CHANGE! by BellaElla(f): 12:57pm On Aug 18, 2016
OP your situation isn't strange, but how u go about determines the result u will get
you have already made some mistakes like threatening to sleep outside.
the day my husband threatens me with infidelity, I doubt he would get the solution he desires.
the issue here is both of you are on different sexual wavelengths.
Some women are just not naturally adventurous in bed, some see things like giving head and talking dirty in bed a taboo
if she grew up like that, then there is nothing you can do, its already ingrained in her.
what you can however do is to try and increase the frequency of the action.
do you only hold her when you want some? do you flaunt her on social media? how often do you compliment her? do you cuddle her at night? are on chatting with other women in her presence?
have you bought her any intimate stuff, buy her sexy lingerie, turn her to your model, carry her on ur laps and tell her how beautiful and irresistible she is to you. that you are lucky to have her etc, etc.
some women need their inner sirens to be cajoled out, every woman loves to be wooed and sweet talked by her man. whether he means it or not cheesy cheesy cheesy. for instance even if her body changed after childbirth, tell her its more sexy now grin grin, if she believes in her sexuality, she would flaunt it for u. don't go and start complaining of fallen brezz and loose kini o. she would never recover from it cheesy cheesy
finally lose those your female friends numbers, it is highly disrespectful. you are married and as such the only females you should be interacting with those that benefit you financially, academically or business wise.
if your wives male friends before marriage should start calling her frequently, I guess you wont fancy it.
what would even give a single woman the morale to tell u to come and chop, that means your female friends are highly promiscuous and have no shame, you cant make progress in your home if you still keep those loose girls as your friends and confidants.

FamilyRe: Why Are So Many Attractive Religious Ladies Not Getting Married These Days by BellaElla(f): 8:06am On Aug 08, 2016
crackhaus:
Well, people are still getting married regardless...but I must say that you left out one very important thing - character/attitude.


So I was in church this morning and sat next to one gorgeously-dressed unmarried lady (I only assumed she was unmarried going by the vibe she was giving off...didn't bother checking her fingers), then the pastor made a comment about how a lot of single ladies these days always seem to have a long list of things they desire in a man:

- he must be this ......
- he must be that .....
- he must have this .....
- he must have that ..... and so on and so forth,


Now according to him (which is actually the truth and I agree), not one of these ladies usually adds things like these to their lists:

- I will always honour the man God sends my way
- I will totally respect and be a blessing to the family of the man God sends me no matter what
- I will place my future husband's authority above mine in the home as the Lord designs... etc etc.



Back to the lady I sat next to..
While the pastor was talking about how ladies always have long lists and going on to give examples, she kept interjecting with the usual 'yes oo', 'ride on Sir, 'that's it'...
But for some reason, immediately the man went into the second half listing things which they usually fail to include in these lists, you wouldn't believe how mute this young lady became - she didn't make a single sound, it was almost as if she had been caught unaware and off-guard on realizing she was indeed one of those people.

She had obviously become more relaxed now and was probably thinking deep, because that wasn't the narrative she was expecting at the end.



I hope this was practical enough?
Do you worship with The Kings Assembly Sir? cheesy cheesy cheesy

FamilyRe: Two Wasted Months Of Marriage by BellaElla(f): 10:18am On Jul 23, 2016
Oga morning o. In my opinion I believe you are too involved in their marriage. Firstly it is only an irresponsible wife that visits neighbours everyday without reason. You and ur wife shouldn't have let it get that frequent. Its not a behaviour to encouraged and breeds over familiarity and disrespect. Another thing is when she started complaining about her marriage to u people, you should have known the kind of woman she was. That woman can set u up, she can cause issues between u and ur wife . She is not a wise person to associate with. However its not late to disassociate urself. Distance urself from their issues. Stop calling the woman. E no concern u. Let the man and his family sort it out. It would surprise u that when they are talking about their wahala or name would be mentioned. Over familiarity between neighbours dey always bring insult.

WHAT TO EXPECT IN THE THIRD TRIMESTER
Transitioning from the second trimester to the third trimester can be rough, especially when some of the old first trimester symptoms begin to reappear and stay until you give birth to your baby.

Here are some of the things you may experience in the third trimester:
•the return of fatigue
•backaches
•trouble sleeping
•fetal development
•frequent urination
•Braxton Hicks contractions
•weight gain
•gestational diabetes testing
•kick counts
•onset of labor

coldharmattan:
Good day fruitful mamas.

Please I don't mean to cause trouble but I have come here to warn one of you to please and please release my husband.
I registered on nairaland a long time ago. Dh is also on NL, 2 weeks ago, I traced his girlfriend here. They met on NL and have met to an extent that she is even pregnant. He rented her an apartment and hardly ever comes home to me and the 3 kids.

You are here forming married woman on top another person husband! God is watching you.
Please release my husband before I carry your matter to Facebook and people that will deal with you mercilessly.

You have been warned.
I will pity you and not mention your moniker but if you refuse to do as I have said, I will disgrace you from this forum.


Ashaaaawo 10kobo.
Mama I am sorry for the troubles you are facing right now, I cant imagine how you feel.
please I hope you are 100% certain about the identity of the lady in question because some words once said cant be forgotten
have you talked to your DH about this? what is he saying. calling out the lady on this forum or SM will not remove the baby she is already carrying. you have to think beyond disgracing her and figure out a lasting solution to this problem cos its a big one as a child is involved.
also you know she can delete her moniker once you mention her name. I pray God gives you great wisdom to handle this matter.
As for the mama that went to get pregnant for another womans hubby, I don't know if you are trying to lay ur hands on his money or his love, but one thinh I have witnessed in this life is that the is path you are walking never ends well. Leave another womans hubby, find your own. you don't want to deal with the drama that is involved in scattering a home o.
Coldharmattan may God fight for you.

Thanks alot sir. funny enough, I've always had access to his phone dats y i could even easily look through that night. I just never saw any suspicious stuff all dis while neither had he given me reason to doubt him. we talked last night & he said i wasnt sexxually welcomin like I used to b in d early months of marriage, dat i complain when he asks me to take a particular position or do his 'fetish', dat am always on my phone (browsing/chatting) even in d middle of d night, dat i got slack in d way i appear at home when hes back from work & i got used to stayin nuude indoors wich he doesnt like. He also said he felt inadequate at not bein able to make me cuum after lots of forreplay etc & he duznt evn no wen I actually com. ( i guess I need help in dis area, I enjoy sexx but I find it hard to climmax truly) & i was like.. why didnt u say anytin! Is marriage not for communication? He reiterated his promise not to do it again to wich i told him im not sure he wont yet he kept at it but am stil so broken.. i told him i was givin him a last chance, dat if he does it again, i'm leaving him. He's such a good man in all respects dat i just wonder how dis loop hole came by
First of all I have to commend you for having the mind to share this, I am so sorry for what you feel
Secondly and most importantly, you have to understand that cheating is a choice, he chose to do it. please don't feel like any of it was your fault. IT IS NOT. whether you added weight, or were not as sexy as you were before, do not let him talk you into feeling that your looks or behaviour justifies his actions. REFUSE TO TAKE BLAME. if you start accepting that you had a part to play in his indiscretions, you will never be able to stop blaming your self. Forgive him if you can, but please do not take part in the blame game. men have cheated on their wives with married women, girls with body odour, house helps, prostitutes, does it mean that they were better than their wives? what of those that sleep with their friends wives that have had 4 children, is their v.j tighter than their wives own? One thing men do is to try and make you take part of the blame for their bad actions. don't fall for it. you can apply discreetly corrections as per their complaints but don't go and turn into who you are not.

Tallgirlslim:
I'm trying not to be sad. But I work in a brutal industry. I know I'm not entitled to maternity leave, but who plans to get pregnant while you have a baby.

I just don't know what to do. Will I need to resign? I can't leave a month old baby for house help.. I'm so scared. Cos I'm only entitled to my annual leave. Which is one month.

Won't people abuse me for leaving my baby at such a tender age..... how will I cope returning to work in that state, cos I'm already burned out on the job.

I just need encouragement I guess or maybe I need to face the reality of resignation. Please advice in love....what do you mama's think..
my dear you are not alone in this, I am in the same situation too, what I intend to do is to take my one month annual leave and resume after one month. I will take the baby and house help to work with me, they would sit somewhere conducive where I can easily check on them every 1 or 2 hours or house help would flash me if baby starts crying. I know it isn't easy but I MUST MAKE IT WORK. I cant resign right now, me and DH are on a project so every penny counts. the baby will be fine. the reality is if you resign you will regret it oooo. you will remember all the ways you could have made it work. I Know God will make it easy for us in Jesus Name. Amen.

Iyabetajos I know at this moment words may hold little comfort to you, I know your heart and lips would be full of questions and thoughts on what you could have done differently, but free your mind from all that, express your pain, shout, scream, tear a wall if you have to, don't hold back, you would come out victorious. I am so sorry. may heaven give you the strength you need to come over this pain.

zemaye:
Madam bella this your advice na sarcastic one o grin
abeg no put Sisi for trouble.

luscioustrish
Do all the above only if thats how you are!
BE YOURSELF!!!
Dont go and start what you cannot finish smiley
If you know you can be kneeling down to greet your in-laws all
your married life then go ahead if not , you dont need that to
appear respectful.
The most important thing is Be Yourself
I cannot emphasize it enough, if you pretend
na' you go regret am!!!
And yes I married Yoruba and am not Yoruba
No Issues kiss
Mama that being yourself something depends on the kind of family you marry into
it costs nothing to go on your knees and greet your inlaws
the first day I met my MIL she had just alighted from the car, by a major road
I went on my knees, she placed her hand on my head and started praying for me.
I had never done it before, but had to stoop to conquer,
it is their culture, you have to respect and adopt it cos its now your culture whether you like am or not grin grin grin grin
I hate amala, I hate ewedu, I hate goat meat, but I had to eat them all with feigned relish in their presence.
I see them at most twice a year, so I am ready to please them those few times to avoid wahala. before the go call meeting for my head grin grin

Mamas we were robbed o! I am just getting over the shock sef, we woke up to see all our windows open. they used long sticks & parker to scoop up our phones and laptops from outside , they even stole my hubbys wallet from his trousers.
please if you live downstairs or in a bungalow, do not keep your valuables or handbags close to the windows, keep them in your wardrobes instead.
To think that me and dh sleep stark naked, who knows if these thieves live around us. I dunno if they used jazz cos my phone was just beside dh and they scooped it without us waking up. God protect your children o.
I am grateful to God I didn't see them, cos I wake up a lot at night to pee, who know? I might have fainted at the sight of them in action, or they might have harmed us. help us thank God o, that they didn't break in and attack us physically, or demand for more items.
I know that God would divinely replace all we lost in Jesus name. Amen.
