Chronicle Of Blog Visitor Narratives....

Hmmmmm





NARRATIVE NUMBER 1
CHANGING LOCATION AFTER MARRIAGE IS IMPORTANT?


Dear Stella, please help me publish this on your blog because I need to make a decision urgently. My head is aching from too much thinking, was thinking of meeting a counsellor but…

I am almost settling down with a guy staying at a somehow semi-urban area that is distant from where I am staying now, going to his place from where I am is like 8hrs and if you missed the first bus you are ‘on your own’, mind you no flights here; you'll have to travel to that place by road. We have done our introduction so planning on completing the marriage rites before December this year. I was having doubt about relocating and staying with him where he is but these are my fears:

My mother trained me singlehandedly and I view it like she exchanged her life for me to get higher education and currently I am helping her immensely with the present job I am doing. If I leave my job how am I likely to be able to help her financially considering that the guy I am almost settling down with is a budding business man and very stingy. I am not complaining about myself because the business can averagely sustain us but my mother and my siblings are my fears. My sibling needs my financial help now but I am trusting God for them to be independent in a short while.


My guy will never help me financially towards my family, I once asked for rent from him for my mother but he refused, maybe he doesn’t have or maybe he does, I don't know. But he did not give me any response rather he urged me to save and pay for it. I’m not disturbed because I don’t believe that one’s husband should be her cash cow. I believe in making my own money.

Seriously, he said that he can not marry a wife and she will not be staying with him. 

I somehow agreed but I am having a rethink now especially because of my mother and siblings. I have always longed for this job I am doing presently because it is helping me a lot and I started it newly and have not even saved enough to at least have something in the bank to fall back on.

I want to raise that discussion again with him if I can stay where I am presently after completing the marriage rites and continue my job and make up with weekends and holidays but I know he will not agree.
Please my people, help me with advice as I am seriously stuck. Thank you and please hide my email address.


Why exactly are you marrying this man?tats what you should be asking yourself,if the reason is more important than all this your story telling then go for it and marry him but otherwise i see a one chance situation.i am one of those people who also hates remote areas and what you described up there sounds like a nightmare.
Please discuss one time with him and search yourself.

NARRATIVE NUMBER 2
WHEN YOUR PARTNER PUTS ON WEIGHT...

Hey Stella how are you doing? 
I hope this fits in well as a chronicle or whatever section you feel it does.
 I've been dating my girl for a while and she's a good lady like literally one of the few women out there a reasonable man would pray for. We both live in the States unlike myself she was born and raised in the States while I moved when I was a teenager. 

The problem is before we started dating, she used to be so conscious of her weight and worked out well. In fact, we even have a joint membership in a gym but all of a sudden she's let herself go and she's gained a lot of pounds, she's suddenly developed a lack luster attitude towards going to the gym. 

She has an event company and her regular day job which makes her super busy but she don't slow down with those foods either, they have to add cheese to virtually every food she orders, we both are barely home but even when we are, we order for food a lot because cooking ain't really her favorite thing. 

I try to cook as much as I can to reduce us getting food outside and stay healthy considering she spends almost the whole week at my apartment but I still make out time to workout no matter what.
Each time I try to talk about her food order, I literally ruin dinner so I just keep mute and hope she realizes.

How do I tell her to watch her weight without hurting her or making her feel some kinda way? Considering people take weight issues seriously here you don't tell a lady about her weight without getting her all emotional and stuff.

I don't wanna ever stop being attracted to her.

Who's been in this situation home or abroad and how did you handle it? 


*I dont know how to do this but perhaps if you buy those magazines discussing the issue and leave it where she will find it,it might help?or you tell her and damn the consequences cos some people have problems loosing weight so its better to help them prevent it.good luck.

    1. @poster one;did you say he is a budding business man and very stingy??
      Then since you know he is;why do you wanna erase the source of joy and livelihood of your immediate family simply because of marriage to a non-caring and stingy man??

      All I can tell you is that I know of a word called "priority" and "happiness"...So if marriage is soo important to you,and you can be happy seeing your mum and sibling suffer in future;then go ahead! But if otherwise;wait for a better man..

      Yes a lady shouldn't be dependent on a guy for anything;but my dear it's a different thing when your partner is stingy altogether..

      Enter this marriage with your clear eye ok? And please save us of any future chronicle when your mum can't afford her rent or food with time..

      Your happiness is important!! but dear;never in your life forget your roots!

      Goodluck!!

    2. Poster 1 - you don't know location matters a lot in life. If you stay in a local place for one year, when you come to the city you will weep. Na so my relative marry soldier go stay for one nungu. When she goes to visit lagos or abuja back then she will just be lamenting. Luckily they transfered the husband to the US on training. She used the opportunity to rent out everything in that house. When she returned she said never will she go back. Can u raise your children in such environment? It's not all about getting married but also living by certain standards.
      Secondly, what man doesn't support you in time of need. Is it when he locks you inside that nungu that you think you will be able to support your family? My dear, you juSt want to suffer and drag your family along with you.
      Let me ask you what stelladimokokorkus.com asked: why are you marrying this man? You know he's stingy so why are your marrying a stingy man who wants to teleport you to the bush? Na wa ooohh! !! Are you desperate?? Is your biological clock ticking? Hian!!! Okay

    3. Poster 2 - Hmmm..... I don't know oh. Me im team healthy eating all the way. But when I see fat people I just can't. All my friends are fit. I don't make friends with overweight girls. Don't come and entice me with unhealthy food. Cos really it's a contagious habit. I no dey to dey make enmies untop matter. However, My bf recently started gaining unnecessary weight and developed pot belly. I told him point blank that this wasn't how we started oh and if he continues this way I will start admiring fine boys. So he shouldn't call me a cheat later. I'm not asking for brad Pitt or too much, juSt don't hug me and let pot belly be a stumbling block to my happiness. Him dey there dey argue say work and stress. Oya let me help you with meal plan? No answer. Infact it caused a very big fight that I've begun to see a stubborn side and I'm re-thinking. I'm not ready to marry and start cheating. If Im not attracted to you I start losing interest and thats how the curve declines. I hate when you see a young man/woman looking twice their age. My last birthday everyone I asked to guess my age guessed 18-23. Meanwhile i turned 28. Even when i look in the mirror i laugh cos honestly i look 18. Esp when i pack my natural hair. And someone will come and tell me a healthy lifestyle isn't good. Una good luck oh!! Me I don't pet weight adders. I tell you Ho-ha if you're someone close to me.

    14. You are wise now? Wasting your time insulting people commenting their hearts out on a forum 😂😂 when your mates are making money with their time.

  4. Poster 1, you're joking right?
    You want to enter a disaster head on?WOW.
    A man is not an ATM but what's a man who can't help his partner in time of need? You have said it yourself that he doesn't help you out even when you ask. You want to leave your job to marry a man who thinks of only himself? My dear you will eat sand or come here and beg for money to buy food.
    What is wrong with you young women these days? Why are you all always in a hurry? Women get married these days and are worse than they were before the marriage.
    Why are you even considering this man as your last bus stop? He should even be considered for dating. So selfish and uncaring.
    Do not leave you job. Whether you marry him or not is now your business. Introduction doesn't mean marriage must hold.


    Poster 2 she ha's let go because you're still with her. I know a man who left his wife for the same reason recently.
    Not even man can handle obesity in the woman and if you can't and she won't change then better take the bull by the horn.
    She should be lucky she has you to encourage her.
    Keep talking and registering your displeasure to her till she listens.
    She likes food and it's not east to lose weight. Buy her dresses that are small intentionally then try to take her out asking her to put it on.

Even my father and mum are all healthy. They jog every morning and eat right in their 60s. It's just my lifestyle. I no fit oh!! Just sit down and become balloon overnight. So that when you have heart failure or diabetes, i will start sleeping in hospital. Mscheew!

    3. @doppleganger is a gee, @poster 1 why do you want to marry this selfish guy by force, he doesn't sound like a responsible person, if anything he will control your life forever. Speak to him about your worries and responsibilities to your family, it might be time to find you a man that has your best interest at heart and loves your family too, he might even tell you to stop talking to your family once you enter that bondage you are calling marriage. As doppelgänger said ... Don't get married and Bcome worse off.

    7. 20:04 if you did trad wedding and not just intro, aka your bride price has been paid to your family, you are free to go to your husband's house. But I understand how you feel. If your family will still have you, then stay with them till the Church wedding. After all you will soon leave them for life. Besides, it might make your wedding night interesting, then you will send us your wedding night brouhaha, lol.

  6. Poster one: "My money", "his money" is not the way to start a marriage:

    SUPPOSING THIS MAN LOSES HIS JOB AFTER YOU HAVE LEFT YOUR JOB AND "MARRIED"? If you are not ready to leave your family and follow this man, you are not ready for marriage!

    When one says "spouse" one is talking about "life partner"; husband or wife. If one has chosen above (all men or) ladies to live with "this fellow' as a life partner in love; then love is all about sharing. When one say "my husband's money" or "my money" is it not an anomaly? when one shares everything intimate (including sex); if they can't have funds together; where is the oneness? Hasn't the aim of marriage been defeated? The issue of oneness is in sharing everything. The excuses many give is "I don't trust her to know how much I earn or am worth". If one is a follower of Christ; who did Jesus give "his wallet"; was it not Judas? How much trust did Jesus have for Judas? These are some of the issues that intending spouses should define in courtship.
    On a personal note; my husband and I had a common "account" from the moment I accepted to marry him. He decided to put me in charge of every financial spending. He makes contributions and there is no issues about that. There is no account that we have had since marriage that bears one person's name and the mandate is "either to sign". WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT "HIS MONEY" "MY MONEY" hasn't the purpose of marriage been defeated?
    Finances usually breeds quarrel among couples and the taste of the pudding is in the eating. Married for more than a decade an NEVER ARGUED is our testimony by the grace of God. When there is concealment of finances, the lady makes demands, suspect the husband of keeping a concubine etc. But when the two are open to each other in the way described above; thee will be no room for mutual suspicion!

    A couple we know lived financially apart. The man is reasonably well to do but the wife dared not ask or "take his money". He gave her "handout" of money from time to time; monthly allowances etc. All his businesses were solely in his name. He took ill and his doctor gave him a damning health verdict and he had a surgery fixed. He knew that he may not come out of the theater alive. He quickly summoned his wife and took her to all his accounts and made it Joint and she could sign. Made his kids 'next of kin" in all the accounts and re-registered all his businesses with the wife's name inclusive. Even the financial aspect of the surgery and bills, the wife was in charge. He told her, "If I do not come out of the theater alive, sell all the exotic cars and keep just two" etc. IT WAS NO LONGER AN ISSUE OF THE WIFE TAKING "HIS MONEY"; THE WOMAN WAS IN CHARGE. He confessed certain misdeeds to the lady and they prayed together and he got into the theater. AFTER 9 HOURS OF SURGERY, the news came . . . he survived it! It was this singular experience that changed his attitude towards family finances as concerns his wife. She knew about every penny that dropped or left the "family business" as it became.

    Then he said to them, "Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions." (Luke twelve vs. fifteen)

  9. 1) Writing chronicles already?
    My dear all i saw is the part where you said he is stingy and bluntly refused to pay your mom's house rent; without giving you any concrete reason why he can't help!

    Run! Run!! Run!!!
    Keep your job, i take God beg you. Tell him you've given it lots of thought and you think it'll be better for you to keep your job, as the country is very hard now. If he refuses to let you keep your job; tell him It's over! Then you move on abeg


    2) Ermmm what do i even say
    I really don't think there's anywhere to go around this. Just face it head on and whatever the outcome, you'll see it. Then know how to deal with it from there

    Sit her down and tell her your mind. Tell her you don't like how she's been adding lots of pounds and you need her to get back to working-out like before.

    Don't say it in a way she'll feel insulted or embarrassed. Be cool and gentle when telling her; her response will give you all the answers you need.

  10. 1. Hope you're not entering a one chance marriage. How can you marry a stingy man? You know he's stingy, yet you want to spend the rest of your life with such a man? What if he doesn't take care of his responsibilities, leaving you to train your kids alone and providing for the home, what will you do then? Hope your case won't be like yesterday's chronicle. Marriage and love should be about give and take na. Hope you won't sent your own chronicle in March, 2017. Think am well o.

    1. Tell her in love. If she vex ignore her, hug her, peck her and tell her you love her, that you want your relationship to last a lifetime and you want her for the long haul, so you wouldn't want her to do anything to jeopardize that. Tell her if she needs your help you are ready to support her however she deems fit. That if you didn't love her, you would ignore her. Then buy her an I love you gift. Slay it mehn... That is if you think she is worth it.

  12. Poster 2: People should be sincere before entering into a marital relationship. Say what you want the way you want it; with every respect. Tell her (show her the picture of what she looked like when you met her) and if she is not ready to sacrifice to stay that way, then the relationship isn't going to work. And the fact that you cannot correct her is not a character asset; period! Better to part now than to divorce.

    Meanwhile, you started badly by "living together" while unmarried, that alone makes the other partner lazy and non-nonchalant.

  13. Poster 2 i think you should really have a heart to heart tall with her. Do not bring up the weighy issue,just ask whats on her mind and hwr general wellbeing because, some people tend to turn to food when they are depressed or battling an issue. Once that's ruled out,you could talk to her about keeping healthy. It's for her own good, anyhiw she takes it.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Poster 2.I can deduce that you intend to marry her. Pls Marriage is no Child 's play. If you don't love fat girls go for a girl that loves watching her weight.When it comes to marriage, always go for want and what is best for you,to avoid stories that touches....coz Marriage is a life Journey.
    Tell her that she is getting fat. And that you don't like fat girls. As simple as that.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Poster one the fact that you do not expect your husband to be a cash cow doesn't mean he cannot help you out with certain financial challenges. You have decided to marry a STINGY MAN, this can be tricky because later on, he may decide not to own up to certain financial responsibilities simply because he feels you can save and handle it. Please and please think and discuss with him. Believe it or not, FINANCE is very important, extremely important in Marriage (this is not courtship)

  16. Poster 1 : the handwriting is on the wall now, but you forming blind. Your man can't even help you with little change for your mom, and you are here saying you believe in making your own money.
    I don't get this foolishness of women nowadays.
    Love is giving; how can't your man give to you and you say you wanna spend the rest of your life with him? I seriously don't get it.
    You also say he's stingy...nna ehn, I lack words.
    Tomorrow, you'll start lamenting.
    Are you so desperate to bear Mrs?
    From what you typed up there, it doesn't even sound like you're in a loving relationship.
    Guy man has already told you he can't marry someone who won't live with him. Which question are you asking again?
    Abeg pity your mom who suffered for you, and keep that job; God opened a door for you but you wanna shut it.
    Move to his place and regret it.

A man who cannot take care of you no matter how little or at least contribute to your happiness financially is not ready for marriage. You can have all the money in the world but him giving you something small to add to your millions will definitely gladden your heart. If you go ahead with this marriage, I bet that in a couple of months, you would write another chronicle crying and regretting. Is it fear of the unknown? Do you think you would never see another man? My dear, God has a better plan for you. I hope you understand? God help you... Poster 2, hmmmmmm.....

  23. Poster 1.....I know relationship and marriage takes a whole lot of sacrifices, but you should always keep in mind the type of person for whom you are making the sacrifice.Learn to always weigh your options.You clearly stated that your man is not the type that assists you financially and you are considering quitting your job to go spend the rest of your life with him?

    I love independent women, women who don't rely on their men for every little thing but I'm also a sucker for a man who supports his woman every now and then even without her asking. Your fiance is obviously not this kind of man.Do not just quit your job like that without any solid plan in place considering the fact that you have responsibilities to cater to.

    I'm going to be blunt with you; come on! your man has made it clear that he can't marry a woman that won't live with him, trying to make him change his mind will affect your marriage negative if he eventually changes his mind.

    Weigh your options well though, I think marriage is better enjoyed when couples live together; makes bonding faster,issues are resolved as soon as they arise.Do you want to be in a marriage when your mind is never at ease as to what your husband is up to? Do you fancy the idea of losing connection with your husband all thanks to distance? Do you want to abandon your responsibilities to your mum who single handedly raised you and your siblings considering the fact that your fiance may not be able to or want to assist you in any form?

    Think about it though,marriage takes a lot to make it work, you are having insecurities already; do not throw it to the winds.
    Besides, you sound as though you are not excited about the marriage; do not joke with your happiness, you need it for a successful marriage.

    Poster 2: I always clamour for friendship in a relationship, friendship to me Is the number trait every relationship must have to succeed.I'm saying this because a friend will not be scared of airing his views and feelings around his friend.

    Talk to your lady already, be gentle and loving when talking to her.Acknowledge her good sides that drives you crazy while making her know why adding too much weight is not healthy.Above all, know the right time to bring up the topic, it could be quite sensitive to some women.I wish you all the best.

  26. Poster one,you are jumping unto a lonnnng thing which you are calling marriage. You want to sacrifice your job for who??? A man that would not help you financially. Stay there and make excuses for him you hear? When you are fully married to him yo u will hear nwiii. This type of man will end up leaving you to run the home in terms of finances for him. In case you are not seeing well,go and wash your face on the bathroom. I wish you well

  28. Poster1: u seriously need a rethink before u return with a tougher chronicle. Discuss with ur man, if he wants u to resign and join him after wedding then he should set up better business for u dia or get u a job over dia(i.e if dia is any good job in the type of place u just described). If he can't do any of this for u, den u are in hot soup if u relocate. Cos u won't ve only ur family to think of den, ur needs will also be included in the things to think of. I am married and working in a df city, in short more than eight hrs from where hubby stays. I must tell u dt itz not rice and beans but we ve to work it out together knowing the time we are into(incase u don't know "THIS IS A DIFFICULT TIME") but we know it won't last forever. We will be together as soon as we can but we need to plan first, at least save enough money so d person relocating can use it to start sth reasonable. So, pls don't be quick to take an action that u will regret. Poster2: if u really love her, den correct her irrespective if her reactions. Am sure wen she is in her closet, she will rethink.

    Stop making excuses for him, do not move to a semi urban area cos jobs are hard there, one day ur husband who will be glad to help mummy and ur siblings will come, marriage is hard enough as Is is already.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Poster 1, what are you doing with that guy? You believe in making your own money and men are not ATM! Please give yourself a break.
    If you end up marrying a man who could not help you financially in your time of needs, suffer awaits you in that home that you planned to enter.
    You people live in separate areas,and you are not ready to move to where he lives if you guys eventually end up married. Then leave nicely now, while is still in a relationship phase.

    How can you even think of getting married and living separately? Anyways, that stingy man you are about to end up with will frustrate you and your family.
    Women please, even if you are working and earning good money, make your men know is their responsibility to spend money and not yours.
    A woman's money does not last. We women were created to be pampered and do not settle for less.

    Poster 2, the reason i hate political correctness or whatever you guys call it! Why can't you tell someone that you love and care about that she is adding weight and that you do not like it.
    I am one of the people that say it as it is, i don't care if you will be upset. I prefer to say it to your face than gossip about you.

    Tell your lover that she's adding kilo and that you are no longer attracted to her! Tell her you love the way you met her and not the way she is now.
    Why eat cheesy food.
    Oh no, i made my husband stop eating cheese and all kinds of bread that white people can't do without (He now eat only goat cheese and whole brown bread once in a while)
    Buy different health magazines as Stella said and leave it wherever you know she can easily see it.
    A little more advice: Please try as much as possible to reduce eating out. Cook your food, know what goes into your stomach; is very important. You see the reason why i do not support/believe in women that can't cook. They will either make you die of hunger or make you eat poisonous food outside.

  33. Poster 1 your mum helped you and you are doing your best. You cannot be tied permanently to her. You have your life to live. Think again will you be happy with your man if you leave this job it will be bad when you start regretting your marriage. See if you can get a good job over there before you resign. For now don't Resign.

    Poster 2 she believed she has seen the one thereby piling more weight. Tell her you watch your weight or we call off the relationship. I think her brain go reset

  34. Post 1: You shld have put all these into consideration before you agreed to marry him. This is the kind of dicusion that intending couples shld have. Tell him everything you just told us.You need to provide for your family and he obviously isn't willing too. If he says you shld quit your job and he'll take care of it. Just know that when you marry him he will stop. Why not postpone the marriage till you find a job there? From your write up,you don't sound like you love him and this obviously isn't a marriage of convenience at least not for you so why are you marrying him again?
    Poster 2: Tell her straight out. Don't be rude or anything. Be honest. She might be pissed at you but she's be mostly pissed with herself. Also maybe there is an emotional factor. Something you are missing, you may find out. I am sure she loves you enough to want to keep you. And be patient with her, it may take awhile before all the weight comes off. Hope you know that if you guys get married and have kids her body may never be like it was when you first met? What happens then? Are you also concerned about her health or do you just like the idea of your woman having a banging body?

    Poster 2- Be diplomatic and tell her,you will surly help her it might be a bit difficult dou,because you guys will surly argue about it.but don't worry you guys will be fine..it's not easy to shed fat o,once she is big to reduce will be quite difficult!(prevention is better than cure)

  38. Poster 1 like Stella said, why exactly are you marrying this man. Hope its not so you can call yourself a married woman? I wonder why you will open your eyes and marry a man who has no interest in providing for you and your mother.
    Poster 2 try to find out if there is any particular reason towards her sudden nonchalance about her weight, since you said she wasn't like that before. Also, if she is on birth control pills, it could also cause weight gain. Talk to her as gently as possible and make her understand that she needs to watch her weight cos its easier to control weight gain than trying to loose weight already gained.

I'm a practicing professional, and a business woman at the same time, still my husband pays me every month, and I mean good salary. In fact he reviews the salary as the economic situation changes. I didn't ask him to, he took up the responsibility the very moment I agreed to spend the rest of my life with him. he takes good care of my parents and he's, and doesn't wait for me to remind him of his duty as regards financial issues. he paid for my masters in the u.s and even got his office to send him on study leave for the period I was there. pls poster one, better know what you are doing oh b4 u enter half chance. A man doesn't take care of you, on top of that u want to leave the good job u have to be with him, who will now bear your responsibilities?

Please how can your partner not help you in time of need and you still call him your partner, no ,attercliffe how rich you are, there's a feeling that comes when your partner spends on you. Do you know if you marry this man you will end up paying your children's fees, buying food and one day he will ask you to pay rent then you will send a 5 page chronicle. May God help you.

    P2, please if she is your friend and she loves you, she won't pick offence when you tell her, my hubby is my best friend, he yabs me when I start gaining weight and we laugh about it. Sometimes I become sad but I realise he loves me that's why he's telling me.

    Frankly,your problem is actually worse than the distance between you and your intended.
    You asked for help and he unemotionally tells you to save money for it without empathy?

    Then you go on to type that you didn't know whether he had money at that point or not?
    That in my opinion is a red flag. You are almost husband and wife and you sound like you barely know him.

    I know you didn't ask for my opinion concerning this, but I think you might need to think about committing to this guy.

    Yes you want to be independent, you hate depending on anyone, nice qualities ... But You know anything can happen right? How will this man fend for you then?

    How will he treat you when you are out of a job and 8hours away from everyone you know?

    As much as I'm not encouraging you to depend on a man for survival,a man you intend to marry should be willing to, (underline the word willing) to sacrifice a lot to see you happy. It starts from courtship.

    If you proceed without addressing these issues, this man will turn you into a bitter, jobless person... You will end up suffering that momma you cherish so much.

    Marriage is beautiful, it is about love,sacrifice...commitment,generosity. It is patient. Your partner should love you,yours and everyone you love. When he doesn't have, he tells you in the most genuine way, you will even know cos you are in it together.

    Sister,Don't be in a hurry....slow down and think of YOURSELF and what you need to be a happy person✌🏻️

When I couldn't take it anymore I told my mum and she started sending at least 5k to my account every month..at 7months pregnancy I told him I will go home to go and deliver, at first he refused but along the line he let me go.kai...I suffered.
