We came to this World and automatically join a group of people whose blood and genes we share. We are supposed to love and care for one another but the reverse is the case in some families.
A family where siblings are competitive and are always trying to bring down each other is no longer a family, at this point even pure water is thicker than the blood.Elder brother’s son is getting married and one gets to hear it from strangers. At least after all the divide and rule that he did that scattered the family, I expected Elder brother to use this wedding to unite the entire family because to be honest I miss having a family.
No calls and no plans for party clothes so I decided to call but he didn’t pick so I gave up and called nephew and he said his father was in charge of informing relatives.
3 days to wedding and still no update from family but I hear the wedding is huge and taking place in a high brow area.
Turns out the party clothe/Access card for guest is circulating and I just got to know so I called Sister. She said, she has malaria and typhoid and she is not even in town. LOL
Should I crash my nephew’s wedding? Will security not throw me out like those Nollywood movies?
Amebo is sad and confused.
This is really something else. What could make a sibling ignore their relative this way? Even if his father doesn't inform his own people, the son should be able to do better. Anyway, we haven't heard from the other party to conclude.
ReplyDeleteI would gladly not attend such a wedding. No be by force.
DeleteIf you are not invited
DeleteDo not go
If they did not inform you, don't get involved
No need to attend that wedding especially when is by IV, don't go disgrace yourself like you have never had party jollof rice before. Since your elder brother and his son refused to invite you, you called him but he refused to take your call or return them back. Just ignore him and mind your business.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn’t bother myself about. Self-respect should come first. When you are not invited to something no matter how great or grand face front and keep on living. Will you die because you didn’t go? It’s one day in the billions and billions of days this earth will see. You want to embarrass yourself by crashing a wedding. If it even 1 ounce of self-respect find it in you.
ReplyDeleteWhether related by blood or not, everyone should be free to decide who they want around them or at an event. It may hurt now, but time will forget the event and all the attendees.
Exactly oo. Would you die if you don’t go ? Just a days event which they’ve clearly indicated they don’t want you there , why go embarrass yourself?
DeletePlease don't go, self respect and honour is important, since they didn’t dim it fit to inform you, then you shouldn't go.
ReplyDeletePlease forget about the wedding and stay your house, let no one disgrace you because of ordinary party jollof rice
ReplyDeleteSince you weren’t invited, I suggest you don’t attend make dem no go disgrace you for there.
ReplyDeleteAMEBO am I you? Are you me?
ReplyDeleteThis is a perfect description of my family currently; just that we've not started getting married, though, elder sis will be married in a few months time.
No love, no unity, no peace, faulty foundation (I blame my mum for this)...
In our case, they prefer an outsider to their own and would even join to humiliate you
Omo!!! Tory long, when I have time I'll send in my chronicle.
Stella please do a piece on toxic mothers , doing divide and rule and factions
DeleteShebi you don't have shame go there and disgrace yourself there are telling you they don't want you there
ReplyDeleteOk
ReplyDeleteJust like my family, our eldest brother is exactly as described above. He prefers to deal with us individually. Whenever we try to come together, bros always scattered us.
ReplyDeleteMaybe he has mental problem
DeleteMay God help you
ReplyDeleteIt's well
ReplyDeleteQuestion: If the wedding was not in a high brow area, would you be bothered to attend or make enquiries?
ReplyDeleteI don’t know why you people kiss ass of rich relatives and rich people in general.
Treat them as though they don’t matter.
Thanks for saving me the trouble of asking.
