Good day everybody. So I have lived with poliomelythis for more than two decades now. I have strived so much to achieve alot for myself because I never allowed my situation deter me from achieving my goals in life.

Everything has been going on smoothly: Education up to MSc level, a job, a car and things a man can acquire and say he has reached a level of comfort.

The one thing I'm yet to get is to be in a stable relationship. 99% of the girls I've dated never took me serious and we never lasted long. Some will even take advantage to chop my money and bail after a while. It got to a point I had a bitter negative stereotype thinking all women are mainly out there to exploit a man.

It wasnt until earlier this year when I met someone who changed the horoscope. Like she is so down to earth and actually loved me for me, without even looking at my paralysis. Things were going smoothly until she started becoming aggressive and emotional over little issues.

It took a while but she was able to open up to let me know how her family vehemently told her they dont want to see her with someone like me. They also threatened to disown her if she insisted on being with me.

Currently, we decided to stop seeing each other for the sake of peace to reign in her family. We do keep communication on a 100. We both love each other genuinely and we do not want us to split just like that.

What do we do?
@OP: So sorry about your predicament, we empathize with you. Please ignore some comments made by stupid people here.

Please try your best possible to warm your way more into the heart of her father, somehow, he may be able to convince his wife but if they don't bulge, please move on with your life, there is a woman for every man and vice versa.

Take solace in the fact that the situation you found yourself was due to no fault of yours and keep your self happy at all times. God will definitely sort you out.

Cheers bro.

What is poliomyelitis? Doctors in the hus
Polio is a children's epidemic or whatever. It affects children under 6 years I think. The government gives its vaccination for free so I think it is almost eradicated.
The legs will be functional from the thighs to the knees but from the knees down will be TOTTALY paralyzed. So, they wear something on the knees that connects the upper and lower legs, so the upper legs will be controlling the lower legs, then they use crutches to move slowly or some use wheel chairs for fastness.

If the mother is the only issue...there shouldn't be much problems nah... She should focus more on totally convincing her father..

He's obviously the head of the family...and if he's ready to make a stand... it's a done deal...

Exactly if yhu guys are meant to be together nothing will stop it...but that doesn't mean yhu won't fight for eachother...

It's just an obstacle... it'll pass
So many homes in Nigeria, the father is the head of the house but the mothers calls all the shot. Especially calm easy going fathers

Head of house! That shit is a ceremony title in most home. If you think you can win the father's heart and forget the mother. Heheh all the best.

The only hope here is if she can stand her ground to both parent. And it doesn't look like it.

Bro, there’s nothing wrong with you at all. I have seen many disabled people getting married in Nigeria—as long as you have money. And from your narration here, you’re even doing better than most of us with our two legs intact. Leave that girl & talk to your family to get you a wife from Kwara State.

Never look at yourself as being disabled ooo as you’re very comfortable financially. Women plenty wey go marry you.

Happy New Year.

I can feel your pains,Sir. There's a this certain guy...never knew him to be crippled .lo and behold saw him on wheel chair some weeks ago
To worsen the situation, the guy is still in secondary school. Now he has be wheeled to school everyday all by himself.
If you're with ur two legs in a good condition... Be grateful to God.being in that condition ain't the real deal but having to be a liability on ur folks

This is really sad....Have yhu met her parents one on one...? If No ..I think yhu should meet them and show them yhur "ability" that yhu can take care of their daughter...and that yhu love each other so much...

If they're still adamant ..then I'm afraid there's nothing much yhu can do ..other than pray....if she's truly yhur wife...God should preserve her for yhu...

On the other hand yhur gf is a grown ass woman and the ball is totally in her court....She has to decide if she's ready to take a bold step like an adult and stick with it...
Her parents are not the one to marry her...neither are they going to stay in the marriage with her..

She's the one wearing the shoe and she should know where it's itching her from...

Just talk to her...Asin heart to heart...pray about it...and leave everything in God's hands...

If she's not yhur wife let her go...yhull find someone better...
What the heck is 'yhu', 'yhur'? undecided

When you and your are the same number of alphabets?

Re: My Girlfriend Family Rejects Me Because I'm Disabled by lekonso: 7:36pm On Dec 31, 2019
My friend if that girl refuses to marry you please leave her, she is not made for you, that is the simple truth. Not because of your disability, there are people more disabled than you and they are married. There is a guy who is totally paralyzed both hands and legs, yet he saw a girl to marry. You are far better than most people that are not disabled. Your brain is sound, that is what makes a man, not two hands and two legs that cannot achieve anything. You will surely get your own damsel, keep on praying and she will show up. People that are not disabled have similar problems .

My exact sentiment. The guy is doing better than 70% of able bodied youths in Nigeria. There’s nothing wrong with him.

Your only option is a mail order bride , yes you read right.... Leave the young lady only, the argument you are having is not only borne out of her parents pressure, but the psychological impact of having to live with a paralyzed man.
There's no fun in paralysis, I pray God makes you whole since there's nothing he can't do.
There is someone for everyone.I was in this eatery, and lo this guy came in crawling on all four.He crawled onto a sit and closely following him behind was a pretty lady with two kids a handsome boy and a beautiful girl.They were a family.That was his wife.When you see him sitting you won't know he craws on all four.It changed my perspective of life.

I met her father. He didnt seem to have problems with me. It was after the meeting that I discovered her mother is the main issue to contend, who is not backing down on her stand. Well all i am doing for the lady is to encourage her and go for what she wants. Las las if we are meant to be together, nothing will stop it
get her pregnant

If the above is true. My advice for you is to impregnate the girl. It’s a Win-Win situation. If they accept: good, If they don’t: You will have a child.
Re: My Girlfriend Family Rejects Me Because I'm Disabled by Ubdavis(m): 7:53pm On Dec 31, 2019

Re: My Girlfriend Family Rejects Me Because I'm Disabled by bluefilm: 7:55pm On Dec 31, 2019
I don't blame them at all for rejecting you.

This is Africa.

Nobody wants a sympathy marriage arrangement.

Our societal perceptions of certain things still pervades.

I hope you understand where I'm headed?

I'll advise you to focus on white women.

Those people dem no send.

If you like have only one eye, one hand and two tails, once the white lady falls in love with you, na you sef go dey try find way to escape.

But for Africa here, our people too dey check many many things because we tend to take marriage things very serious.

Happy New Year.

Offpoint:
Let the rich get married to the rich
let the poor get married to the poor
and let the disable get married to the disable...

Stigmatization has been part of humanity since God knows when.




The world will never accept your indifferences, no matter how hard you'll try.
You have to realize this else you'll constantly hurt yourself.


We live in a world where by:
Graduates believe they're of more important than non graduate.

Uni grad believe they're of more important than Poly grad.

Rich believe they're of more important than the poor.

The whites believe they're better than the blacks

The tall believe they have more advantages of getting laid than the shorts.

The fair skin believe they're more attractive than the brown skin.

The long dîcks believe they can please women than the short dîcks.


let me stop here, conclusion is we live in a fück up world.
I realized this long ago and I've stop giving a fück about people.

If they denied you their daughter, look else where... women ain't gold, they're everywhere like MTN network.

You can't never be accepted by all
Well spoken.
