Conditions Parents Give Their Children As Regards Finding A Life Partner by nedu2000(op):
Visited onitsha last weekend and took the opportunity to visit my 87-yr-old grandma,she's never one to hide her feelings,after the pleasantries and everything she got down to business. Conversation was in igbo (obviously)
G-MA : nedu2000 who are you going to get
married to?

ME : No (on 2nd thoughts so that she
doesn't arrange one for me)....yes
grin

G-MA : is it yes or no?okay where is she
from?
I don't have any girl friend for now but decided to just give her the state of origin of two female acquaintances I know but lying to grandma.....conscience

ME : er,em....i never asked them,i think
Delta and Imo

G-MA : I don't like them,if you must marry
she should be from Anambra and if
she's from Anambra I don't want
Awka and Onitsha girls and she
must'nt be 'ndi Mary
'

ME : yes ma

G-MA. : Good!!come closer and cut my
finger/toe nails for me

My grandmum is hypertensive so we've all made it a point of duty to give her positive news so you won't blame me for giving her a 'yes ma' answer. I will not use any of her criteria in finding a wife, thank goodness my parents are more liberal somewhat sha grin[b]

MUM: she must be a Christian in words and
actions

DAD : your wife must be female (thrilled[/b])

Let's share some of the criteria our future partners must possess as derived from our friends/parents/siblings
