That is how it is most of the time; a lady that was humble before, when she gets to america, she learns that she can push her man out of the house whether she's at fault or not. she starts misbehaving so that she can trap you with the feminist law over there. If she bleeps a stranger right before your eyes, the law over there don't recognise that. But if you make her angry or annoy her, the law will come after you and take it full course.

OP, take your wife along with you. And please, when you get a divorce or she gets you jailed, I want that update here please.

If paraventure she didn't maltreat treat you or force you out of your own house because she is a woman, then accept my apologies in advance.

This is what's happens most of the time. You will be a lucky man if you don't end up like several other guys who made the mistake of taking a woman from to there.

Hello! I just could not pass by without saying a word about this. What if he does not plan to live in Nigeria? Would you prefer that they both stay apart after wedding. Although there are Nigerian women who will cheat on their spouse, history also has record of those that have remained faithful despite all odds (you attest to this yourself).

At op, please only you can decide if you want her to come over there with you. You know her so well more than anyone here. Besides, I think if she is worth being your wife, then she is worth living with you wherever you are. Please don't make her wait for you. It does not always work out that way.

I understand your point. I just don't buy the idea of generalizing. Op's fiancée might be an exception to the norm. I just think that we should be careful when advising others.

@op hope ur not taking this advice. This is not good advice. Im just telling u cos the whole thing is predicated on the highlighted. I can tell u for a fact dt personal statistic is not factual. Dt guy probably knows one person wt a bad marriage & peppered it wt other nairaland stories.

The factual statistic though is dt long distance marriages dont work. Take dt to the bank.

2. Her family members might not support this,as they tend to love parties from their end
3. I'm planning on taking her along with me to the country where I'm based presently,so as to settle down there,all these will gulp cash,and we are trying to be very conservative with our spendings as well



Please we need your matured advice as on how to go about this,our plans include church wedding,introduction,engagement and reception in a day...Thank you

It's not an act of insecurity if a woman insist she lives together with her hubby, it's her right and the most apt thing to do, couple should live together.

The problem is that some women have abuse it and prompted guys to leave their women in Nigeria. And about impregnating women and leaving them home isn't abandoning per say, as they
frequently wire money to take care of them. No one abandons their wives and kids.

And no man likes to live separately with their woman, everyone loves to live together with their spouse. That's the point of getting married, live together. Some guys just don't bring their wife instantly until after a kids or two prolly to gauge her character and be certain she won't be troublesome. So, eventually these wives still join their hubby.

True, there are some guys who are married to whites but the marriage is usually a temporal engagement until they secure their complete paperwork. Such men can marry in Nigeria and leave their wives home until they secure what they want before considering she joins him. Is that a problem?



Who is this person sef? Some people would just spread their fingers and start typing without weighing their words. So its okay for the man to marry a Nigerian wife, keep her here to check her character and then go abroad and be banging another woman for green card after which he wud bring his wife over but its not okay for d wife to come and join him there to bang other white men. Msheew! [b][/b] sad

Very easy.
Buy more bags of water than bottled water.
Cook plenty subsidy rice and mak e sure the meat is chopped very small.
As for gifts buy more of cheap gifts and give good ones to special guests. You can call a rubber tray company grin :
As for cake, let It be chopped by an igbo woman.
As for drinks, buy can beverages of assorted types plenty, same with can alcohol.

Don't forget to cook plenty rice, make the rice plenty.It should be served first, so by the time wey dem dey bring the native food out, plenty people belle go don swallow rice tire. Native foods gulps a lot of money

Mcayofficial,

My suggestion:

Tell wiffie to pick between a big wedding or relocating with you. Just sit back and watch. Na she go tell her parents NO.

End of discussion.

OR

In Yoruba land, na bride's family dey spend on reception oo. If the parents can't afford their 'dream' wedding, then they have no right to insist on an expensive one.

I honestly do not understand the stress peeps give themselves because of a day's ceremony. Insist on the amount you are willing to spend, those not in favor should add their own money... undecided

Hey man! Remember this is Africa! Nigeria! If u make it strictly by invitation, then u will have to offend so many people, what criteria will u use to invite those who u will invite? So I will now come to ur wedding and a security man will bounce me out? biko!
See, to me if u want even less than 200 pple, fix the wedding on a Tuesday or Wednesday, do court wedding and not church(u don't have to cater for any choir, pastor or church society) make the reception very brief just beside the court premises, by say 1 or 2pm, u should be done with the wedding and already on ur way outa that city!
