FamilyRe: My Mom Has Made Me Miserable! She Denied Me Happiness by Sisib15: 12:29am On Jan 26, 2025
You should put copied from quora in this your story
egobetter4me:
I know a lot of you will blame me after reading this and even want to curse me, but this is my sad story and I just want to put it out there for people to learn. Don't ever let your parents decide your partner for you. Even if you have to run away, do it.

I recently got married to an ugly, short, black, smelly, village girl. At first my uncle took me to see her, then we spoke and she came visiting. All these happened in the village.

When I went back to the city, I told my mom I wasn't interested in her any more, but she insisted I must marry her. My mom would always take my joy by telling me about the girl anytime she sees me happy. There was no breathing space. We live together and I pay the rent. I loved her so much that I could do anything for her. She once sold her wrappers/materials and jewelleries, to send me money for school fees.

Anytime she tries to talk to me about the girl, I will beg her and let her understand that young people like to marry who they truly love. I don't want her, I don't love her and I don't think I will ever will.
After all said and done, she still insisted, so I called my elder bro to come talk to her. He came in from another state and spoke with my mom for hours. She did as if she would allow me marry my choice, just for my brother to go. Immediately my brother left, she started again.

My mom has BP. She stopped using her medication and was ailing. she threatened that if she dies, that I killed her. I thought to myself, that if she truly dies, I might live with the regrets for the rest of my life. I really tried but I was defeated. I succumbed. But before marrying the girl, I spoke to her(the girl) that I don't love her and that I'm marrying her against my wish, but I guess she was desperate. She said I shouldn't worry, that the love would grow in the marriage.

We got married. She lives with me and my mom. Even my neighbours were disappointed in me, when they saw her. Church members and friends were all disappointed. I can't start narrating to them how I got here.

We are over a year gone now and she still irritates me. I so much hate to look at her. We've had sex only about 5 times or so and I have to get high to do this. I only kissed her once(at the alter and I cringed)

I cry everyday.....both at home and while hustling. I never envisaged my life to be like this. I had hoped to meet a beautiful, clean and well mannered graduate from the city. Someone I would truly love and she would love me too. I'd hoped that I would meet her, approach her and we start as friends, then lovers, then I would propose and all. I never planned for it to be like this.

I am so sad with my life. Right now, I'm thinking of applying for masters abroad and probably use the means to Japa and never come back again.

My life is so miserable!

Learn from me. Don't ever let your parents blackmail you into marrying someone you don't love. Pls don't. Just run away for months or few years and they will leave you alone.

I know i can . Its easierin my school to do that anywaybut clinicals money is whatis scaringme.
rinzaugustine:
you can transfer credits from current program into the nursing program, that way you have fewer classes to take
TravelRe: Living In The USA - Life Of An Immigrant Part 1 by Sisib15: 2:30pm On Dec 10, 2024

I wiuld have loved to finish my programbutcould you believe masters in Englishin my school is a three andhalfyears program
Zihno:
Aren't those expensive? I don't think they build the prerequisites into the programs if you haven't taken it already.

If you can afford it, go for it. Even I got into an ADN program as everyone was telling me to switch to nursing but after considering everything, i'd rather graduate from my Masters program and hope for the best.

Thank you so much , my admission is for accelerated nursingprogram
Zihno:
Hello Sisi. I recall your MS is in English and Linguistics which honestly isn't well sort after. Nursing is a great field if you're willing to put in the work. Were you admitted into a Bachelor or ADN program? Have you finished the prerequisites? That's where the issue lies. Elementary statistics isn't really elementary. An Adn would most likely take you 3 years if you're starting from fresh and since your background isn't in the sciences, it may not be too easy for you.

But if you can finish the program and get a nursing license, you'd be set. Another thing you should consider is if you can afford the program.
TravelRe: Living In The USA - Life Of An Immigrant Part 1 by Sisib15: 11:37pm On Nov 22, 2024
Hi guys,
I am at a cross road, I am currently doing my masters degree which I have two years to complete. The thing is that I applied for nursing program and I got admission. Right now I am confused on whether to complete the degree program before nursing or abandon my degree and continue the program.

Hi Justwise,
If you read the previous thread ,most people left and stopped commenting because of how oya tunji operates and the kind of misinformation he
gives out to prospective candidates. Most of the time he creates fake accounts whenever someone calls him out for those misinformation. Again, he usually ask people to dm him ,ask them for money and block them too. He is an agent using gullible nairalanders.
I am writing this because i benefited from this usa thread last year . Please block =OyoTunjiUSA the information he's giving out is not genuine.

TravelRe: Why You Should Do Your Research Really Hard Before You Japa Os Relocate Abroad by Sisib15: 2:54am On Jun 26, 2024
You really have time telling people . Alot will not believe you because they think life abroad is luxurious. Omo, sunday to sunday work work work .
Papilagreen:
Okay here we go...

First of all I want to apologize ahead of time just in case you see a typo please just ignore it because I know you will understand what am trying to say just in case because I am human and not AI that does things to almost perfection.

Okay so before you japa or relocate to any other country please and please do your research real good before you dive in.

I will say this because I was very guilty of it. The problem with our typical Nigerian man is that we hate to read and study more to get more info. Instead, we all go by the words of people and what we see on social media.
I am here to tell you that the that not all that glitter is gold.
Yes you will see our people the moment they relocate abroad they take pictures ND post online we the ignorant people back home when we see the environment where the pictures are taken we fell they are in the promise land.l but they are not.
I will advise you if you have relatives abroad be it the USA, Canada, UK, Germany etc. its not easy i know what am talking about.
One advice I will give to us Nigerians is stop the money conversion YES! Stop it.

Now before I go any further let me explain. Even if you make 2000 pound or 2000 Dollars every paycheck my brother you are suffering.

See to sum it up right. Let me use my self as a case study. I have traveled to different countries , From UK to France and now i live in America where i am a legal resident i don have to be fraid of deportation or what not.

Firstly before you relocate please and please first make sure you have a very good professional skills. I am not talking about your university degree I am talking about something marketable. Be it taloring, hair dressing, mechanic any job at all heck even plumbing or electrical too abeg learn

Secondly the living system abroad is a whole ball game. You are new to a whole different culture. In Nigeria, things are so very very cheap but nobody will agree with me. So let me explain a little as I can for you.
And before I say bills, somebody will come and say what is the bills you people pay abroad that we in Nigeria don't pay. And I am here to say alot of bills plenty bills even your papa no pay before.
In Nigeria you can not pay your nepa bill and still have light one way or the other
Abroad, you don't if you don't pay, you lose your privileges and what are those bills, let me tell you.

For example here we go.
I will be using myself as a case study so here is a few of the main bills I pay monthly I don't miss
1 house rent : $1345 per month
2, electricity :$120 per month
3, phone bill 3 phones me myself and my first daughter totalling $120 per month
4, car insurance I have 3 cars but I drive two because nobody drives the third $180 per month.
5, internet fee $45 per month.
Food and drinks $800 minimum I spend for 4people that doesn't include eating outside not even a fancy restaurant just normal fast food if I include that then I should be running up to $1100 per month if am correct.

This are the min expenses monthly. I haven't included health insurance and other emergency expenses.
Last month my send child fell a little sick I went to the hospital and after just minor examination by the doctor, we were given pain medicine and some flu medication the next week, my hospital bill came ND it totalled $2113 I wan shout.

Now I haven't talked about the fuel I buy to drive around and other expenses ooo.

Now have it in mind that we in America nobody will tell you this but I will now. And I want somebody to prove me wrong in America and the UK, the citizens 15 people out of 100 are the ones that go to school. When I mean school I mean the university i.e bachelor's and masters degree. They don't go to school only the wealthy go to school here those who were born into money or the one that decides that he or shill will go take out student loans to go to school. Na we wain japa come here dey go school.its not that they don't want to its because it is very expensive and they can't afford it. A typical American citizen doesn't have up to $4000 saved u as emergency funds it's very hard to come by. I am not saying they are not but it's rear. ( Ask me why and it will be a while new topic for another day)
Na only abroad somebody can be kicked out of their house at anytime and they be one homeless.
I know a lot of people American (oyinbo) who are homeless and get they still work they sleep in their cars t the parking lot at Walmart or any super shopping center at night and in the morning, the just brush clean their self with baby or body wipes face, armpits under leg and off to work. Why you ask me? Well because they can't afford to pay their rent and bills and eat at same time.

You might think this is funny but it's not it's the fact. Na who neva go no go know.
I'm summary you have to be working two or 3 jobs to be able to make ends meet to survive. Na only yanki you go dey work pay rent for house where you don't spend up to 4 hours living in that house daily.
Forget that word say u dey come here come hustle hard people dey wain hustle pass you here take it or leave it I see it everyday.

Infact the American living here are complaining. I know some people will say tax is used for good roads and electric etc. baba that's cap. I have lived here enough to know otherwise. Ask a sain American who is 85 % saintient of his or her environment, and they will tell you that the greatest scam system ever created in America, is the taxation system Americans cry because of taxes they pay always yet somebody who hasn't left the shores of Nigeria or should I say JJC or person eain no a spend up to 3 years abroad will argue with me. That's why I will always say who no go no go know.

I will tell you something today yes, there is dignity in hard work, and hard work pays off in the long run but believe me in America where I dey sometimes the case is different.

Finally, I will end this not with this if you have the opportunity to japa please japa it's worth it even if it's just the travel experience it's worth it on the long run BUT, never ever try and relocate abroad without proper plans e.g accomodation mostly accomodation make sure you well prep to where you will be staying when you come or else you will regret mostly when it's the winter time. See your relatives and friends abroad go fail you. Once you tell them say you don land 80% of them will leave you hanging at the airport because them know what's up and you win just come don't know shit so wise up make sure you set before you japa.
Also abeg no sell your property japa make sure it's not you last resort to sell you property japa because you might end up regretting it.
Those people wain dey tell you say japa say in less than 6 months to a year you go be permanent resident most especially those trave agents abeg avoid them.
Finally I will leave you with this last advice. You bring a black man in a white man's country, just know say your one simple honest mistake is equivalent to a white man's 100 mistakes you will be judged differently.
Abroad no be by hard work dem dey take survive here na wisdom ND since. In Chicago Illinois alone I know this for sure because I have been there. We have many africans who just came into the country not up to 3 years and they are already in jail serving long term because of crime and fraud in the name of I must blow. No be their fault na the movies dem dey watch for Nigeria about yanki and when they came here, they found out the other way. I have a friend I will call him ola just for this sake. Ola dey prison serving 7 years for Internet fraud aka aza man.
After his arrest he called his mom from prison telling her that he now works offshore for an oil company and they don't use phone there always so he calls her when he is allowed to use the phone for call which is limited to the inmate In there the mama dey Nigeria dey brave her pikin set work offshore the mama no know and I can't tell her because such news can never come from me to her.
So abeg my people always know that it's not always bright at the other end of the tunnel abeg wise up.
Before you relocate try improve on a good marketable skill or skills make u no go dey left behind.

I know you have done a little bit of research on this so i willanswer your questions. They don'task for bank statements at the embassy. Nobody is going to ask you for financial documents or anything. The only information the VO needs is what you have on your I20 and what you fill in your DS-160. Hence,your visa approval is based on how you can convince the VO through your words ,composure and confidence. If you have deficits ,the Vo is going to ask you how you will pay ,so it all depends on how you can prove to the vo that you are capable of funding your tuition. Also, whatever you want to fill in your DS-160, make sure it's your truth,so that when the VO ask you,you will be able to answer confidently.
I hope this answer your questions and if you need more clarity quote me.
MisMik:
I want to know if we are to go to the embassy with our bank statements. Most of the transcript I have seen here didn't show that they submitted it and it wasn't written on the website as part of documents needed to be taken to the embassy.
Secondly, if we are to go with it must it be the one we submitted to the school for the I20 because in a situation where you sell a property to boost your account balance.

I did not write my opinion to you . I know who you are. Blind will always lead the blinds into pit. You have been misleading applicants to what people have said but i am pointing embassy policies to visa applicants. That is how you teaches Bsc applicants Msc and Phd transcripts in your mock groups.

1. Thieves from job vacancies. You do not have any visa processing brains but how to steal. You scammed lot of people on Nairaland with NYSC redeployment scam in 2023.

2. Click on my profile and screenshot it on Nairaland for general public to see. I have never deviated out of USA travel sections.

I don't read your responses but omo this one no follow ooo. The above if you love yourself don't put that bachelors in your ds 160. You don't need it there at all. If you still wondering how to answer you can put the question on google and add nairaland to it . It will shows you the previous threads, and what people have said regarding that .
OyoTunjiUSA:
Hey 🤠


* Dont mind @LoverOfLove. Pls dont lie in your DS-160. Indicate every schools you have attended.


1. If any consular ask you that exact question , he or she only ask you as a matter of curiosity because it is (situation of applying for 2nd degree) not part of a visa determining criteria but if you give a clueless answer then it can give the consular a bad impression of you.

2. For example, i am a millionaire whom you begged N1,000 from last week. Today, you appear again for the same N1,000 favor and i asked you " why is it that its only N1,000 you used to beg for ?

** If you say ... I actually needed more than that but i did not want to put all my burden on you ..Then i will give you another N1,000 as a rich man.

*** But If you say ... I am planing to increase the Favor to N3,000 next week, so i just want to start with N1000 favor. I wont give you another money again because you have given me a bad impression of you.

3. Tell the consular something like ; I did not like my cgpa after graduation and its affecting my mind or profile.... ..... I am presently in the IT department and over the few years of working i observed that my co-workers who are Americans teaches me what i am supposed to have learnt during my undergraduate studies and these guys only have 2 yrs computer college education from the USA .....etc .
