17 year old or 71?  Since he is done with secondary school, the mother can relax her hold and dialogue with him more. Tell him why she doesn't want him to have a phone, listen to his reason why he wants one, give stipends for monthly allowance, look at the part-time job he wants to pick up etc. He might want out of the house because he is not comfortable as per step-child. She should engage him. |

Acidosis: The right thing to do was to reject her food/drink. The young man is greedy and a glutton!
Omo, how can you visit your mother in law for the first time without a gift, and sit down to eat her food and drink?
Let's be honest pls, the young man is greedy and shameless. It was not the first visit. |

Mariangeles: It was lack of understanding. But would you go to your in-laws empty handed?
It's awkward just thinking about it... It depends on the frequency of the visit. Since that was not the first time he visited and the first time he visited without a gift, the mother should have let it slide. But bringing it up, complaining about the drink she offered him, the girl fighting with the guy all reeks of classlessness IMHO. I think the Bobo is trying to build a relationship with the mom which gives him points in my book. Well, OP claims Bobo has apologized. They should both learn their expectations of one another. |

KosiGee: It’s best to marry a white woman. If you visit your potential mother in law with gifts when it’s not her birthday, Christmas or wedding anniversary, you’ll look so awkward.
Our culture is drowning in corruption and bribery. And whites don't takes gifts? Even guests take gifts to their hosts. |

Shokoloko: This is not true. This exact same thing happened to me. The guy's mum right there told me that it was wrong to come and see her without a gift (no matter how small). I had to go out, ask the guy for a little cash and go give his mum. Interesting. Are you guys married now? |
Family › Is Giving Gifts Compulsory During Valentine? by bukatyne(op): 7:23pm On Jan 08, 2021 |
Happy new year NLers! February 14 is a day selected worldwide to celebrate love (the version of love defers  ). This celebration is characterized by giving gifts, sex, outings etc. Everywhere is alive with red (never mind some school opine blue is the colour of love  ). My question: If we claim to love our partner everyday, why should we celebrate Valentine or give gifts on that day? That day is not special to them like a birthday or wedding/ relationship anniversary. P.S.: I am not against or discouraging random gifting between lovers; I am challenging the pressure to celebrate our lovers on Valentine's day. The traffic and delivery nightmare is crazy! |

@StacyO,
Fantastic thread.
I don't know when we started 'laughing' at male virgins Sha.
My pastor said in their time, they did crash & coded sexual courses for husbands after the wedding.
This was 30 years ago.
How the Nigerian society turned in thirty years is astonishing.
It is strange people keep 'encouraging' sexual exploration in youth and expect fidelity and bonding in marriage.
Ko le work. |

Family › Re: Women Love Their Son Than Daughter Until He Becomes A Husband by bukatyne(f): 9:54am On Jan 07, 2021 |
RisenPhoenix1: It's an extension of female materialism. They know that one day, the husband will be old and unproductive, so they groom their sons to be their future providers when that happens.
A woman will never support her mother financially in old age. She may certainly bring gifts once in a while, and visit to gist about their respective 'useless' husbands, but that is where the amity stops. No daughter will consider putting her parents on a monthly allowance until their demise; like a responsible son would. For women, bizness is bizness; mother or no mother. @bold:  No daughter around you has put her parents on monthly allowance? Toor! |

ethicallyright: I've known these for quite a while. I can't even marry a lady in my age bracket. There's time for everything and for me , time to marry is at least 14 years from now if things do not go as planned. If things go as planned maybe two or three years earlier not more. I pity my friends who think otherwise.
I want an age gap of at least a decade between me and my wife. I know you dropped out of school and I must commend your decision as a very timely one. I got admitted into a Prestigious Law Faculty in a competitive Federal University at 16. Just a semester left for me before Law school. I couldn't take the dropout path even though I found it necessary in my third year. That was me living my father's dream (He's a senior and respected lawyer and would love to attend my call to bar ceremony for bragging rights). I've started a massive Internet project before but failed woefully after investing a lot. I learnt from my mistakes and started working hard and saving for a comeback. I made a little above 1 million naira last year despite the pandemic. It was my highest earning year through my online trade. It was neither forex nor cryptocurrency- I don't follow the multitude.
I realized the confidence that comes with a million naira in your account. There was a girl , my mate , I loved. She was definitely my first love. When I saw I was making more money last year than I ever did , I ordered her gifts just to make her happy and spent on her birthday.
I went back home after her birthday and imagined how stupid I was even contemplating about marrying her in future despite my business/investment plans. That's how it ended. I never spoke to her again. I rejected her calls and told her through SMS to figure out her life. @bold: Seriously?  |

DEMZEE: 1. That's why a man needs to marry a lady whose financial contributions to the family is insignificant to the man's financial contributions.
The woman's primary role in marriage is to b d home carer and a home keeper shekina anything else is secondary 1. I started that discussion with him when he disagreed with a poster who said responsible men take care of finances in the home alone. Apparently, he wants a traditional wife who would take care of the house alone and still drop 50% of her earnings at home. How does that work? I am sure traditional women would happily gravitate towards traditional men who are traditional indeed. How on Earth do you think weeding, gardening and picking kids from school is commensurate with 50% contribution of her earnings? |

Silentgroper: Are u kidding? 5%! if those 3 only makes up 5% of d domestics, then d domestics shouldnt be classified as a work. just weeding nd grooming flowers is a hell of stressful chores which should mke up 70% of d domestics. Talk-less of health dangers i could encounter while doing dem. imagine if poison ivy are amongst d weeds, she would be there saying sorry while my body itches alongside ulcers, blister nd bruises. You girls are just lazy.  Picking kids from school, weeding and grooming flowers (which are dependent on availability) is 70% of domestics? Cooking, cleaning, taking care of the kids, taking care of the home, emotional investment etc. is 30%? If you have flowers and need to weed, do you do this on a daily basis? Hmmmmmm. |
