Good morning o honey. How are you?

honeygirl17:
Fine and you?

AfroKnight:
That's a flimsy excuse from him. He has been looking for a way to dump you since.

I would have said you should try to get him back but he will keep reminding you that you're the one who begged him back when he wanted to leave.

I read on Nairaland sometime ago about a girl who sued her fiancé for dumping her after promising marriage. Later, I checked and such laws exist regarding promise of marriage. Since he has come to collect marriage list then he has made a commitment to marry you and has committed an offence (breach of promise to marry or something like that). You should meet your lawyer for further direction if you want to take his matter up.

Breaking up after promising to marry your partner (I guess that includes saying yes after proposal) is not as simple as we think.

Move on... Life goes on, you definitely saw the signs but chose to ignore them. there are many guys out there.

coha:
do u think its easy to move on after all we hv bn thru?

PunkyVeer:
Lol, that's so humiliating. Imagine suing someone because they didn't marry you when they promised they would. I'd rather walk on red hot coals than take that ish to court. So they didn't end up marrying me, lighters up & then we keep it moving. There's something very unsettling about someone that'd go to any lengths to correct a wrong done to them. It just screams psycho chic.

AfroKnight:
Lol. But the it's her right to sue him for compensation. She has invested a lot into the relationship. She could seek redress if she wants.

PunkyVeer:
Understood but still it's coockoo lol. Just because there are laws, doesn't mean you should sue every time someone crosses them. Some things are better left uncontested for one's pride & dignity.

AfroKnight:
Lol. If she feels humiliated I believe she should let the courts punish him instead of taking the law into her own hands. In Nigeria, traditional wedding is the business of the whole family. All those friends and extendedfamily members who heard the good news and had begun preparations towards the wedding would have to be informed. It is an embarrassing situation for the bride to be.

She said wants to "kill him". She may be expressing outrage and not actual intention but that shows the level of hurt. Charging him to court for the pain and shame he caused is not too much. If she were my sister I would advice her to sue his cheating _ass. I added "Cheating" cos he got a new lover all too soon and that's suspect.

PunkyVeer:
Friends & family would just have to get over it. The only time I'd sue is if there are expenses that I think he should compensate me on, otherwise deuces. All that "emotional what what" is too embarrassing for me. I watch these court shows on tv & see people suing over this thing. I forgot what it's called in law terms-Emotional "something". Meh.

Lol, you must be mean & strict.

AfroKnight:
Lol. But he was very wicked to have called the whole thing off, giving her such a flimsy excuse. No one should try that with my sister and get away with it. We're going to court, bro. After paying a huge sum in damages, he'd think twice before raising the hopes of another lady.

but I could forgive and forget as well. Depends on his reaction when she confronts him. If he goes cocky on my sister, he'll get served.

PunkyVeer:
LMFAO. I hope the same applies to you IDK why some guys like to throw marriage around if they have no intention of ever marrying the person.

I once watched an episode of that show Deadly Women on ID. It was this girl's wedding day & the groom never showed up. He literally ditched her at the alter, wedding gown & all. This traumatised the girl so much, she went on to be a black widow. She married men only to kill them later on for life-insurance. She married several times. Over 10 times & each time ended with her as a rich widow. The creepiest part is, her maid told a story of how her madam would get dressed up in a wedding gown for no reason. Her very 1st one. The one she was ditched wearing. She still had it. I guess as a reminder to catch them 1st before they catch you. That story touched me because of how people are quick to discard someone without a 2nd thought, not knowing the damage & scarring they're leaving behind.

AfroKnight:
Lol. That's a crazy woman. Wearing the wedding dress? Creepy.

If she had charged her first fiancé to court she would have been compensated and not become a serial killer. It's very painful to get ditched. Same thing applies to ladies who say yes after a marriage proposal then ditch their fiancés. The guys should sue them.

PunkyVeer:
Lol
