Before creating this topic, I tried to search nairaland to see if there's something like this but I couldn't find. The closest I saw were advices on how to go about things when your parents object to your marital decision.

I am currently at a crossroad in my marital decision. My mother does not want me to marry my fiance because of her mother's behaviour.

This is not a unique issue and I know many people have faced something like that in the past.

I know all the advices but what I want to know experience of people who have gone ahead despite their parents' disapproval.

If you have gotten married without your parents' consent, what was your experience? Can you kindly share, so everyone can learn?

Okada, stop me in front of lalasticlala 's doormouth

Also, people with experience of As and As couples should please share their experience.



Advice and solutions.

let me park here and learn.

You don't need any experience to know that you shouldn't marry without their consent - my humble opinion.

After God, next is your parents!

I know that is one of the popular advice one will get. But what if it is even because of God that you are making your decision. Then you will have to decide if God is first or your parents.

Anyways, this thread is for people to share experience. There are other threads full of different advices.

Advice is cheap! Talk is cheap! Don't we usually say, experience is the best teacher.

God forbid that I marry without their consent

That is the same reason why I'm still single. Her mum said no and i let go. I can't allow her invite their village people to my house.

No experience so I will be sharing my senior brother's experience.


Dude came home one day with one tall bae like that from Anambra.


He called the fam together and introduced her as the girl he will marry, Oh Boy.... My old man no even let him finish before he provoke.


He said it ain't happening, that all his kids will marry from my state.

Mumsy calmed him but she sef no support the thing.

Later that night(after the girl don go) he(dad) called us together and started giving reason why we should not marry from another state.

My bro told him that he and the girl don tey so he no fit leave am like that.

I told them to let him marry whoever he likes after all nah he go live with am.


But the reason I supported him be say me sef dey date one girl from Anambra that time.

Mumsy later gree but palee refused so with mom's support, we do strong head go marry her.


To cut the story short, the lady is my dad's favorite daughter in law till today and they're happily married with 4 kids.

2 boys and 2 girls.

.

Let me pack my Ferrari here and wait for the Elders to Gather

well, my mother did not like her, but she is not really against me marrying her though she would have loved if I did not marry her. As God will have His way, she came to my parents house that Friday night and told them she will be travelling to UK to further her studies, we all believed her. The following week she called me with a private number that she is in UK, that was when I started suspecting her. well, it is not possible we get married because she actually lied the reason why she lied I don't know. ( Too lazy to type the full story).

You are still a child.

Love with your heart but think with your brain....Marriage is a union of two families...If your mom is against the man, then my advice is to leave him coz ur parents are the ones you run to when ur marriage is in crisis...You wouldnt want a marriage where both families are enemies to each other...You might think of getting married and running away with ur fiance but remember that you just be isolated from ur parents and family and that will affect your new home and kids in the future....

Sharing experience would be bad advice because people's parents and relationships differ.
Don't marry her because she is a cultist or unfaithful is a good advice.
But don't marry her because I don't like her mother, aunty or face is hogwash. You are the one that will live with your wife, not your mother.

Know thyself and your parents before you decide. While some parents will soften with time, others may cut you off completely. You must examine the worst case scenario to know what you are prepared to sacrifice.

Are you the only child who happens to be mommy's boy? Then going against her might be too much for you to bear.
Are you a person who have always make important decisions for themselves, then follow your heart.

Whatever you choose, you will always regret your decision, there is no escaping it. If you follow your heart and you later face challenges, you will think it is because you went against your mother.
If you bow to your mother's pressure and became unhappy with another woman, you will regret not marrying the love of your life and would blame your mother.

Don't ever OP... This may jeopardize your relationship with your parent..

Be guided!

Nobody should quote me pls

No worry, Nairalanders go share experiences today so tey you go confuse.

Listen to your mother and father, so your day may be long .

Don't marry without their consent or else , you will have problem .

..

The truth is a lot of our parents dont know better..

A lot of them don't meet our spouses for more than a few hours in all.

At this stage, pretense is easy.

Some of them uses spiritual methods to attempt to know about the person..

I think this method is very prone to error...

Una don come back again....Nawa ooo!

If your mother in law is wayward it will rub on your wife ...

Except your wife is a complete opposite of her.


And sometimes parents have Personal vendettas to settle

It'll be hard to see it happen as this is Naija..
