There is this lady I like so much, even my friends know that I like her so much and will love to spend the rest of my life with her.

One day, I saw her with my friend and I later asked her why she is so close to my friend. She said they are dating each other, that she cannot marry me simply because I am tailor.

My friend is a yahoo boy, he doesn't have any work. The only way he eats is via internet scam. To be honest I was so pained, moreover she is not the only lady to have done this to me. Have met several ladies that told me that they can't marry a tailor and they end up dating yahoo Boys for my street.

They always tell me to leave my tailoring job and go hustle like my frnds to make cool money.

Guys, I am tired.. Should I leave the tailoring job and join my friends to do the yahoo stuff?

Girls keep rejecting me up and down and I am fed up.

Pls advise me

..tailor my hrt.lol

My Love Experience

Good day NLanders

I'm a medical student, and gf ( not sure what to call her now) is in MLS. We are both in same level (500l).

It all started in 2015, when we gained admission into the University. We began to read together and subsequently I started teaching her. Later on, she made me to read and susummarize her course topics (which I did for up to her 300 level) for her as she usually found it difficult to read with textbooks and understand the contents.

Months before my 2nd MBBS examinations, I began to notice changes in her attitude and behaviour towards me, up to the point that she told me that if I did not pass that examinations that, she will forget about me. But as God may have it, I passed successfully.

Financially, it started right in year one as I celebrated her and her mummy's Christmas from my own pocket. It got to a point that I usually give her her money almost every day (for up to 5yrs) Whenever, I'm traveling in any of our vacations, I usually give money for upkeep until I'm back.

In 300l, I bought her gift worth almost 30k and also celebrated her birthday which she demanded I get her 'point and kill cat fish' that cost 9k.

I usually pay for her textbooks and seminar work as we are all in medical school, I really do a lot for her, as she always told me she would never leave me right from yr 1 to 500l after which she started telling me, their people from Anambra will not let her marry people from Ebonyi State.

She's has known this for all her life, but decided to bring it up just now, when I'm beginning my marriage plans with her, She's started giving me unnecessary excuses in one form or the other.

In 400L, my elder brother told me that I should leave my medical school here to go and study the same medicine abroad. Because of her, I told him that I want to finish my school here since I am already in 400 level. That after my MBBS degree, I can then go abroad for my Masters degree...

This January, my elder brother told me that since I would be graduating in 2022 (which supposed to be 2021 but due to strike before the 2019 election) which is two years time, that I should be planning to get married before I leave this country.

This made me to ask her again if we are ending up together and she told me that she has to seek for her mother's consent, and would give me a feedback.

Before, she travelled (this is just before the lock down) as she was complaining that she does not have any money on her to eat and she want to go and learn how to plait hair which will cost her #8,000, I gave her #16,000. The next day after collecting the money, she told me that she received a call from her mother that she must come back to her State and she travelled with that money without learning anything.

Yesterday by 8:24pm, I called her to tell me the outcome of her mother's discussion with her. She told me that her mother insisted that she cannot marry an Ebonyi man, and she cannot go outside her mother's decision.

In conclusion, she told me that she cannot marry me.

Well, as expected, I'm bracing myself up for insults, (I really don't mind this right now) but amidst the insults, pls advice a brother who's fighting emotionally.

thanks

.....bros that gal is not really into u
What's wrong with Ebonyi...is she getting married to d state or to u
Face ur books in peace

I saw a post today
"Nobody treats u better than the guy u don't wanna be with"
This might be true to a reasonable extent
Who knows whether my husband might be in my friend zone?
Who knows?

Eulalia:
Huh?
Look at me for what?
Do you know, even the heaven does not rejoice over the death of a sinner?

I'm sure you're not happy about his demise.

Mourn with those who mourn and rejoice with them who rejoice.
Drop the heart of Stone, dear.

...that's gud
But sincerely m happy

Eulalia:
O God... O God... O God... *sobs*

So this man just went like that? Ooowww... I'm really shaking right now. O God... Please heal our land...
The fact he was hopeful in his last statement that he'll be back, just makes me break down whenever I see post of his death.. Ooww.... This life is nothing. Ah!

....look at u

So, I killed the below layer and saw eggs inside. As I type this, I'm confused on what to do with it? Should I plant the eggs to grow?

Different strokes for different folks

Easybela:
Its k by my family, other families can do their wish,there is no rule for marriage list as long as my kinsmen are concerned,if you like,give your daughter away for free,their only concern is that, on that day,you must give them their usual food and drinks(they recently included that in their constitution). Anyway, good to meet you here,am from Akpugo,you?

..Akpugo

Easybela:
I want to clear the air,for those of you who may think that marital rites in Igboland are generally the same or expensive, this is my own list,given to Hubby's family. I'm from Enugu state,Nkanu West precisely. Mind you,I'm doing traditional/wedding same day,only the things in this list, will go no where in entertaining people but we needed not kill the young man with long list because he's getting married, so my family will provide the rest of the food like anything that has to do with swallow and more drinks.
The 1st item on the list,"4 tudun of palm wine",I will post a picture of what we call "tudun" for clarification,(I dont know the English name of that long gallon).
Again, as few as the drinks on the list are, on that day,we will not serve Hubby's family any drink,we will only give them food,they said we shouldn't, that they will come with their own drinks,had it been that their drinks were among,extra 5 or 6 crates of beer and 2 or 3crates of malt would have been added.
Introduction and bride price have been done before now.

..m also from nkanu west
This drinks Are too small.....

Do court marriage ......
Pray for his grace...is ur girl strong hearted?
Start planning for ur wedding....
Tell ur pastor.......these reasons is baseless ...even in my village they still do this thing
OSU and Amadi ...
Even though my dad said we r free born ..but I still hate this OSU of a thing with passion

Blankcard:
I've been with this man for a little over three years. Great relationship in most sense of the word. We were hopeful to spend our lives together.

Last year, I got some truth about my "identity" from my mother. She sat me down to lecture me on traditions when she asked questions about the man I was dating (I'll call him Steve).

Though we're both of Igbo origin, it seemed we're now of different worlds. She explained the Diala and Osu concepts and it became clearer that we've been tagged as "Osu". I didn't quite understand the gravity until I spoke to Steve. He said it was forbidden to marry an Osu in his village and his parents follow traditions. They believe there are curses attached as souvenir packages when they marry one. We cried together and became hopeful for an abolishment before we're ready to tie the knot.
"What do we do?" I had asked.
"We would cross the bridge when we get there".

We were too in love to let go.

Some trends lately signalled his family that he is getting ready to settle. They begin to ask questions and try to get more details to "investigate" me. The curses were sung to his ears and the importance of marrying a Diala stressed. There's no way in the world they would bless a union like that. He told me.

We lost our souls weeping. Never have I felt that hopeless. Not because of the tag but because I was about to lose out on someone who gives meaning and colour to my world. And we can't fight it, except we elope. What if we elope, what happens to our kids? Will they be constantly plaqued by our decision?

Someone said "it's tradition. It is like a marriage where the partners are of AS genotype".
Don't say that to me! AS marriages are of health reasons. Our case is man made. Our ancestors ate sour grapes and our teeth are now set on edge.
And we're Christians, new creation.


In this modern day and age, with all the enlightenment, religion and education we have, it is sad to know that some people hold on to beliefs that some people -of same tribe- are inferior. I may have lost out on being with someone who I deeply love but someone out there will have some hope. You're not inferior, you're not to be pitied!

It is worthy to note that this practice has been abolished in some parts of Igboland but the bitter truth remains, there's still a lot of segregation going on and I've witnessed it firsthand. This archaic, devilish and unreasonable practice has to end, people are robbed of true love and happiness because of this!

#EndOsuCasteSystem.
O.

P.s A new moniker was created to share this and I had to keep most thoughts regarding fighting for the relationship personal. This is an intentional act to only focus on the caste system.

......is ur relationship built on God?

My pastor's marriage is 10 years this year.....and he himself is an OSU
Yet they are waxing stronger each year plus very financially buoyant....
It depends on ur spouse........every marriage has its own up n downs ......
That thing should be closed... But I doubt if it will be closed

fykes:
So this guy's gf mysterioussly died some years ago, after 2 weeks she was buried and a pastor visited our site and we were chatting. Then the guy entered and he turned to the guy and asked how is ur wife? Are u quarrelling with her and it's that why u ain't wearing a ring?
We were all amazed cos he isn't married.... Then the man asked him... Who is the very fair lady by ur side as u walked in now.. He gave a very apt description of his dead gf.. We all knew her. They were engaged to be married next weekend before she died.
The guy just broke down and cried.
The pastor only told him to disconnect from the lady fast if he still wants to live.

...u see what I mean
Most times....they always come to take the person they love...

..pray ooo
My dear pray
That lady might want to take u with her
Experience they say is d best teacher
This one is no longer love...separate urself from her spirit.... If u love ur life

ikh777:
Well, NOW YOU KNOW THAT YOU DIDNT PRAY WELL.....

To pray well is to pray deep even till POST-WEDDING period and POST-CHILDBIRTH issues too.

To pray well is to pray for wealth that will ensure she remains submissive.... as you can see she is still submissive to the UNCLE who has more money than you.... NO GIRL WANTS TO MANAGE THESE DAYS dont u knowwww?


you didnt pray for the KIND OF CHARACTER the lady should have, whereby she listens to you and considers you first.

sadly your girl who may have LIED that she prayed, didnt pray about the uncle's advice, so this shows the GIRL IS NOT WHAT YOU THINK O... she only WISHED IN PRAYER and you came as the answer.


Both of you didnt really sort your finances out, IF YOU WERE FINANCIALLY BUOYANT the girl would have married you this year sef, she is considering her future financial security, and sadly you are not in that picture.


So if truly PRAYER BROUGHT HER, go back to the PRAYER ROOM and get her back.... WHATEVER CAME THROUGH PRAYER CAN ONLY BE KEPT BY PRAYER.

But next time, study well about relationships and move your finances to a very intimidating level before you think of marriage.... RECESSION HAS ALREADY STARTED SO I CAN TELL YOU THAT SHE WILL NOT TRAVEL AND MANY WILL LOOSE THEIR JOBS....


So relax, use this COVID PERIOD TO HANDLE THINGS IN PRAYER....


Finally, for you to come here to ask for advice, shows you are not really prayerful else you would have gone to GOD in prayer to HEAR FROM HIM.... it is sad you only used prayer to GET THINGS rather than build intimacy with GOD>


Bros, GO IN TO THE SECRET PLACE AND PRAY LIKE A MAD MAN.... this is a public place.... the world does not need to know your struggles.... go back to GOD.

..wow...m inspired
