My friend called me this morning to come pick her up from her fiancé's apartment. She sounded so down on the phone, and that worried me.
I asked her what the issue was, and she told me that her fiancé had just called off their engagement.
She has been dating this man for three years, and just two weeks ago, they got engaged.
Last week, she told me she was going to visit her fiancé's parents and would be spending a few days there.
As planned, she went for the visit and from our conversations, things had been going smoothly until last night.
She told me that her fiancé's mum asked her to peel yam and prep for pounded yam. While she was peeling, the woman kept coming into the kitchen frequently to check how she was doing it, which made her very uncomfortable.
At some point, she told her soon-to-be MIL that she was fine, but the woman replied, "You know you Gen Z children only know how to prepare noodles. Some of you don't even prepare that well." She then told her that the peeling was not satisfactory, though she said she did fair.
When the yam was ready, she reached for the electric yam pounder, but the fiancé's mum brought out her mortar and pestle and asked her to use that instead.
My friend politely declined, explaining that she doesn't pound yam manually. But the woman insisted that she had to.
After much back and forth, she reluctantly picked up the pestle and tried to pound, but halfway through, she was exhausted.
The woman kept insisting that this was one of many tests she had to pass to be considered fit to marry her son.
In the middle of all this, the son walked in, and the woman began complaining to him, saying he had brought home a Gen Z woman who could neither peel yam properly nor pound it manually.
She tried to explain to her man that she had tried her best but was simply not used to it. The mum told him on the spot that if she could not pound the yam, she would not be endorsing the marriage.
Her fiancé then told her that she had heard his mother, and that there was nothing he could do. Apparently, his mum has the final say in his life. His dad is late, and he is the only child.
She told him she could not pound. He said if she didn't do as his mother had said, he would have no other option but to call it quits.
My friend handed him the ring right there, went straight to his place, packed her things, and called me to come pick her up.
Do you think she should have tried to pound some more? Or did she do the right thing by walking away from a three-year relationship?
Let me get your takes..

@SirDavidBent I will turn around and walk out. No response needed

You went to a mall for shopping. While you're standing at the counter, ready to pay for all the things you have bought, a beautiful girl walks in.
She picks up a few items and comes to the counter. After the bill is calculated, she starts searching her purse for her ATM card but can't find it.
Meanwhile, you have paid your bill and you're about to take your leave.
Then the lady taps your shoulder and says, “Wait, are you just going to walk away? Can't you help me pay for what I just got? Isn't that the gentlemanly thing to do?”
What will be your response?

So I got married last year to the man who sponsored my education. Have no kids yet though. Thanks to him, today I work as a government teacher in a secondary & high school. I actually just got recruited to this school where I teach Geography.
But please, I'm confused. There's this particular guy, actually a male colleague of mine. He has been working here as a Biology teacher for 6 years. Since I arrived & started work, he has been so nice to me, guiding & showing me around, buying me gifts too, and keeping me company so I don't feel alone since I'm new. We got so close after a month. I don't know, but I just really feel so comfortable & safe with him, even more than my husband. I love his company. If I'm to be honest, I feel like I can share & tell him everything.
Even my husband doesn't get me gifts like this guy does. He is such a kind & gentle man, i must comment, he truly knows how to treat a lady but something about his behavior, actually changed recently. Which leaves me confused. He switched from food gifts & started getting me underwear, bras, and perfumes. Even on 'Teachers Day' he bought me same gifts. This has actually been going on for about 2 weeks now. Please people, this keeps me wondering if it's okay that i keep collecting these gifts. Considering the fact that, I'm a married woman.
Truth is, we've been so close, and I don't know how to go about rejecting these gifts since he is actually doing it with pure intentions, with no strings attached, and he's been so nice to me ever since I got here. I plead for your advice & guidance 🙏

@TonyeDapper2 It is NOT one off
The women who play that role are ashamed to say it outside

I get you
Now let me ask,what if she’s the bread winner and has a lazy husband?
Single mum?
A widow with kids? Etc

@wtffolly_ Whenever I want to buy something and I have the option of buying from a man or a woman, I always choose the man. Because I am sure whatever he makes will trickle down to others (wife, kids, siblings, etc). But a woman, it may end with her.

Many of your friends will not take the same path to success as you.
After your first degree, some will go into trade, some will go into tech, some will go for a second degree while some will not go anywhere.
In as much as you all don’t depend on each other to survive, you all turned out successful.

IF YOU ARE PREGNANT, PLANNING TO BE PREGNANT OR KNOW SOMEONE THAT IS PREGNANT.
This is for you, read and watch this Educative video
This is the story of a pregnant woman who developed high blood pressure, a condition medically known as preeclampsia during one of her Antenatal care visits, her Bp was noticed to be markedly elevated and was offered to be admitted immediately for further evaluations and interventions .
Unfortunately, due to her postgraduate studies and exams that was coming up, she declined the admission and thought within her that it could be managed.
Her condition gradually worsened until it became life-threatening. The preeclampsia progressed into eclampsia , a severe complication involving seizures ,which ultimately led to her tragic death.
Many pregnant women continue to suffer or lose their lives to this preventable condition due to ignorance of the dangers and failure to prioritize their health.
This post is to raise awareness about preeclampsia and eclampsia. Kindly repost and quote to help spread this important message.

My friend got married 4 years ago.
Every December, she buys 3 bags of rice;
one for her mum, one for her mother-in-law, and one for her home.
She kept it up for 3 years straight.
Then, last December, she stopped.
She bought only for her mum.
A few days before Christmas, her mother-in-law called her husband;
“She didn’t send my rice this year.”
The husband asked my friend;
“You didn’t buy rice for my mum? Why?”
She looked at him and said,
“Since we got married, what have you ever done for my own mother?
Have you ever bought her Christmas rice or even sent her money?”
The man paused… then replied,
“But I didn’t ask you to be buying rice for my mum. You did that on your own."

@talk2veee Reporting your man to his friend is not always seeking counsel. Sometimes it is handing your marriage's most private details to the least qualified and least trustworthy person in the room.

@DanielRegha Ironic as that's what the gurls say. Have they ever said any of your observed statements here too
