Did you tell her about Mushin or Elegushi

I'm sure she'd like those places try and convince her

I find it so annoying and irritating when people bring stories of their family members for nlers to insult.

Your mum made a list of places not to marry from, and so?

See what you're doing now, she has her reasons!

MarvellousGod:

So you don dey plan marriage, faith? Nice..

OP someone is jealous here o! :-D;-)

macsilver:


OP someone is jealous here o! :-D;-)

lol. DAT lady name Mrs oooo

Most times the personal experience our parents have when growing up or from people affects their choices,

Imagine an (example)Edo woman telling there son/daughter not to marry from the village/State, meanwhile the mum and father are not just from Edo but from the same village and their family is doing well...

So tell me... I don't call it tribalism because it even happens from people like deacons/pastors(mean while they preach in Christ there is no difference). Parents forget sometimes that it's personal character/attitude that matters more

Just let her know where you stand, when you ready marry she will only do initial gara gara but stand your ground as a man. She will respect your view
Abi na our parents wan marry for us...

lol...my mum won't stop warning me against ijebu people she believes dia love for money is too much. she says an ijebu man is capable of using dia wives for money ritual most esp if she's nt frm his town. i dnt bliv sha bt its so funny.

Its tough enough finding who to give that kind of commitment to....many parents who have never traveled beyond their geopolitcal zones will be passing judgement anyhow...sometimes dey av lead their children into a life of bitterness denying them what could av bin their true happiness. Let God guide.

If one allows mothers have their way sons would never get hitched. My mum is a professional matchmaker and have matched a lot of couples together. When they call her to settle problems that arise later she would say "Why are they calling me to settle problem. Did I know when they met or who introduced them together"?
The one that almost made me faint was my cousin´s marriage. My mom swore the man she favoured for my cousin´s hand was the son of Pope something. That the man was a saint that can´t hurt a fly. My Cousin was not getting young then and though she was already successful on her own but like most Nigerian ladies wanted the security of a man (naija Girls sha, una worry). And years after the marriage incompatibility became an issue and they called my mum to settle gbese. Mummy complain tire saying "they have called me again to settle Problem. That´s when they remember me. If it is to enjoy now they won´t remember me". Me I just laugh tire but I used my tongue to count my teeth. Next time my mum told me she knew the sweet daugther of one of her friends that like me and that she can organize me I told her "Mummy take ya time"
That was 4 years ago and am married now.

lmao. and she has come again. her last statement on this issue was a question she asked me.. "Will you marry a medical doctor if you see one?" . As a sharp guy who knows his mother, I asked her "which one your customers daughter are you looking at now??" NOTE: Fear hair designers. mehn that shop is a place of gossip o. Gawd. I go hear my story for another woman way I never meet for my life mouth.smh

Dont get married, wait and seek her opinion again when you are 40, her response will definitely shock.

faith2ogesco:
The funny thing is that when she was done, no state in Nigeria was left out...did I say state, no village sef. Dis case share tire me. Even my own village and her maiden village get wahala for her eye. You call this state... She counters...next one she counters.... And so on.... And her responses are hilarious...pls whos facing this predicament ooo. I Don convince her small small sha. But d process is so slow cos if u go too fast you go back to square 1 of the mind changing.

She knows you aint ready yet cos when you are....she will release a revised list!

fast and easy solution is

Choose a lady you like. Once you've agreed on the basics take her to your home to meet your mom and if your mom has a problem with wherever she's coming from,get the Lady pregnant. Your mom will be forced to give her consent

One thing with African patents is that they're always paranoid with every decision you make and if you keep waiting on them till they're satisfied you'll wait in vain because they're insatiable. It's when you finish making your choice they'll tell you they're proud of you and you took after them.if you keep waiting on them they'll baby you for the rest of your life or for as long as you permit them

Dont worry when u reach 45 and you are still unmarried, she will be the one to say you should marry anything female. Mothers are not all knowing. They make decisions based on sentiments sometimes. Use wisdom.

Bro marriage is overhyped
work hard,make money,spoil your mother and sisters,travel enjoy nd be happy.

HAVE CHILDREN OR ADOPT-don't chain yourself to a tree especially a nigerian (ibo,hausa nd yoruba,they are all same)one that likes to use padlock for the chain...2 kobo

bros,na life you call that one

Bros are you going to man up or wait on your mother's approval?
My very good friend had an issue like this. He is the first son and his mum was so particular about where he would marry from. He finally picked a wife from a village approved by mumsy. He is married now but the wife and the mum cannot see eye to eye. The wife is like her...quite domineering and doesnt take nonsense just like his mum. So they dont agree.When the mum visits from the villa, she stays with her other son who married a yoruba woman that she didn't approve of. She gets along with that one.
Sometimes mums are picking based on what works for them rather than what works for their son. It is you that will marry the wife not her.
