Family / Re: Moving Out/marrying A Non-african Man by Talltom: 2:41pm On Jan 31, 2018
LuminousLace:
I have talked a few times to a couple my mother's siblings about the situation. One of those siblings are older, one is younger and they have also tried to talk to my mom, but she seems very firm in her mindset and doesn't want to hear what I have to say. My relatives seem to have some reluctance about the whole thing, but a reasonable amount, to a level that one can reason/discuss with. Ultimately, they just want to make sure that I'm moving and marrying for the right reasons and that I'm sure of my decision. My mom's military-like reaction to this whole thing now makes me hesitant, but I will regret giving in to that pressure she gives when involving a big life decision. It is not that I want to leave the house because I don't value my mom and the work she has done to keep the family from going without want, but she is taking it that way. My mom had said bluntly that if I was to step an inch out of the house the time I want to move, she would disown me. I am lost as to why it is taken to this extreme.

You have been seeing this guy for a decade and your mom is now knowing about it or what? How come she is opposing it now. Explain.

It's very dicey, on one hand u can go ahead and move with this guy, but if u do that be ready, subconsciously u will expect a lot from him since u have sacrificed a lot in this case your mom for him which may be unrealistic or sudden for him. I also see a greater propensity for him to misbehave and expect you to put up with since you won't have anyone to run to now that you have no one "technically".

On the other hand you can listen to your mom and stay put and marry an African man. Honestly it may take time to find yet another like you have but it would be very possible, luckily time is still on your side.If you pick this however then know your mom will forever dictate to you, especially on the crucial decisions in life which will essentially mean u have no life, because who are we if not the decisions we make.

Bottom line make a choice whichever one and be prepared to live with the consequences, things would have been easier if you knew your mom's stance earlier before u committed.
Family / Re: The Quality Of Advice On This Section Is Extremely Poor. by Talltom: 11:39pm On Oct 19, 2017
THT80:


I'm not deliberately courting trouble and I'm definitely not dictating what should or what shouldn't be done. I am simply airing my views on issues that I believe should be addressed. I am someone who cares about my country and everywhere it's represented, whether online or offline, and if I detect a problem, I'll articulately shine a light on that problem so that it will be resolved.

But every time I try to illuminate problems I notice, I get insulted by people like you and the lady above, and this is really appalling. Are Nigerians immune to change? Why do we feel hurt whenever our faults are pointed to us? Why do we have this pathetic inclination to attack the messenger rather than address the content of his message?

Where were you when others were ineptly contributing and dishing advice here and there. Sincerely you are not the only to have noticed this degrade, I won't mention names or threads but it's pretty obvious that some great and experienced folks have left this once very helpful forum.

Nonetheless, few others are holding out and new ones have surfaced, in short be the change you wish to see in here. Begin by constructive criticism and open mindedness about human individuality which you may agree to or otherwise because believe it or not as unconventional as some advice come it may have worked for some based on their time, circumstances and experience.

Lastly you came off well but ended poorly, if you are even half as wise or smart or whatever, render an apology to the well meaning but misconstrued commenters and set a good start for a good cause.
Travel / Re: Physical Practices, Training Of The Shaolin Kungfu That Will Blow Your Mind. by Talltom: 11:58am On Apr 26, 2017
Explorers:


A soldier with AK47, a Kungfu master with a sword and both of them in a dark building.

Who do you think will die first?

I don't think it's even fair to try and compare a kunfu master to a skilled archer, from what am seeing here these people train for more than half their lives, imagine how many clips one can empty and reload into the dark after that many years of train.




Oh there is also nightvision. Soldiers have that too for good measure. Nice thread though.

You have said the truth. You do not owe me any apology,you are just trying to help, my story annoys everybidy, our neighbours everybody, I know I am the solution to the problem. And I know it is time to act. I do really appreciate everybody's contributions. I am humbled by the fact that you all spent your precious time and resources to provide comprehensive responses. I really thank you all

I didn't or hope I didn't imply that your story is annoying, but yes you have to take action, ultimately only you can help yourself. I will remember you in my little prayers.

dusseldorf:
I was once adviced that if she start having children she will change, also I draw my strength from the fact that the children rely so much on me. Just thinking of leaving them alone with her is already making me cry as I am typing this.

2 The reason I am speaking out now is that of late all her family members and even the pastor that use to encourage me are all tired, she does not pik any body's call again,
Moreover somebody told me of this forum over 6months ago, but I just think it is unfair to talk about my wife's behavior in public.

Your statements are constantly filled with "advice" from others, quite unfortunately, I am certain it's part of the reason you are here, in this mess, no one REALLY understands your problem or your wife that's why thier advice hasnt helped, usually when we give an account of a problem, we tend to be biased, only a few a able to isolate their view from the truth and give concise information( most times unknowingly).

In short you are all the help you are going to get, no one can revive this marriage except you( I believe you have to work on it, for the children sake at least), there is no clear cut solution to this ( don't look forward to one) , no one can give you the perfect answer, even if I had been in this instance before, am sure the individual involved would have been of different behavior or temperance.

While this post may not be as relieving, I think I should emphasis that there are some basis you can start off with, why did u fall in love with her in the first place?, I shudder to think you married her because your pastor or immediates urged you to, they probably helped you to see better what you were looking at but none forced your hand. You said she is sidelining members of the family and church folk, humans are social beings so she is taking consolation and advice elsewhere, find out, we are usually the friends we keep afterall.

From what I can gather, there isn't an iota of goodness this woman is bringing to the table, makes me wonder two things,

1.What has kept you going on for a whooping 10 years.

2. Why now, what finally broke the camel's back, these things you talk of, u also stated she has been doing consistently, it's not like she is just starting.
Family / Re: Help A Depress Dude by Talltom: 12:35am On Feb 03, 2017
No one has the magic formula that will quench your emotions, only you can manage it, everyone has been in such a situation before, some worse than yours.

When I completed my basic certificate exams, I gathered some funds and started inter city trade around 17 years old, no one in my family had a single hint, the risks, the fears, even the happy moments, I had no one to share them with because they wouldn't have approved. After I gathered enough funds, I bought forms and registered for my university, paid my fees and accommodation, being born a male puts a certain level of responsibility on you ,some brace up quicker than others and step up, everyone has emotions too.

The way I see it, a Turkish cert has a greater sway and will certainly open more doors for you or you can park up and join your beloved family (which is not going anywhere btw) and waste time and resources you can't recoup. Family is good, forget that, family is everything but it's your time to step up and remember why you left in the first place.

Family / Re: Don't Know What This Topic Should Be: But It's All About Family Life by Talltom: 11:33am On Jan 27, 2017
He is probably holding you to a standard, my mom for instance use to take care of the house, and children of my elder siblings, cooking, cleaning, taking them to school, sure she didn't work but she didn't have a maid plus she was a church treasurer, so she was practically involved in every church sitting at spontaneous times. She rarely complained or did anything shabbily, if has seen it done he won't be sympathetic to your case. Your efforts may appear as a deliberate way to rope him into sharing your half of the responsibilities you have judicated yourselves.

Pick a wig today, carry garbage tomorrow, or diapers or... that's how these things start, once the line is crossed there is no "reasonable" reason not to do the other and he knows it so he is standing his ground.

Bottom line: don't start this, it won't end well, besides its trivial(not too trivial to start something bigger though), just ask him to more patient and work on being more tidy.

Family / Re: My 'Yahoo' Brothers Are The Ones Fending For Us, I Don't Feel Good About It by Talltom: 12:59pm On Jan 19, 2017
Confusedsoul:


They have come to accept that the end justifies the means and yahoo yahoo can be such an easy way of destroying ones life because it can avail you to a lot of money which you didn't work hard for too early. Regardless of how much gainful employment affords them it will still be very hardworking them to quit completely.( That's the truth and u probably already realised it).

The problem isn't just with the lack of jobs to absorb them, their perception about an honest living has been compromised.Get them to realise that there is dignity in labour and refrain from accepting help from them, half of their motivation lies in believing their doing this for the greater good. (i.e providing for u and your mom).

whitepump:


I have not known him for so long but i have met lots of people and i think he is different. down to earth and genuine.

What about your father? your siblings, what are their concerns, especially your father, this is a long term decision and it would help mentally if at least one of them was on board. He could also try to talk her in.

Your mom raised a fairly reasonable point and that is to say that he MAY get aprehensive or suspicious later when you settle( disabilities for lack of a better word doesn't cause this, however self esteem does and disabled people often times suffer esteem loss. Should you decide to go ahead with this, in future, keep your activities in plain site, so he doesn't raise flags.)

Clearly your moms opinion holds water to you(and rightly so) so don't sweep it under the rug, else your marriage might seem to be based on a sacrifice you made( choosing your man over your mom) and you may hold him on great account in different ways( knowingly or otherwise) to make that sacrifice worth it, to which he may not be able to step up to.
