I'm really sad about this. I have a shop I run here so except I get a good job outside our town I can't just leave. The best bet is to rent a place and stay on my own but No! I am not married so why should a single lady live alone in same town with her parents? Yet they won't give me the freedom I should have. I can't stay beyond 7 outside, I can't visit a boyfriend in his own town too.
All this town town thing...where is ur location....I guess it's ekiti...na so ekiti parents dey do... never letting go grin

Thank you
I know my mum. Even if the guy has come to introduce himself to her, she wouldn't still allow for weekends visitations not to talk of a one week or few days visit
I can bet this girl has not finished secondary school

I carefully read her threads all I sense is this girl is absolute intellectually absent

Any guy with pure intentions will have no problem visiting you in your parents house.

Why are they requesting that you visit if they have no ulterior motive?

You ladies sef! People are advising you and you are still saying my mum this, my parents that.

That you are old is not a license to be wayward, my dear.

Let them come over and you guys can hang out in a public place.

Except you guys want something else that you have not told us.

GrabHisBalls:
You sound immature though, and certainly not even ready for a serious relationship. Note, maturity is not in age. grin

How on earth would you expect your mum and dad to just let you go off with some random guy called a boyfriend? The introduction sef is disrespectful and if you were my child, let me reserve my comment. grin

You're a lady and men will only respect you when you respect yourself. Those guys who run don't run 'cause your parents are holding you down, they do so 'cause every of their moves will be accounted for since they already know your parents/would be meeting them.

You crave so much for disappearing for a long time with a guy and it's not a good thing. I am older than you by a few years, was once monitored 24/7, all movements must be accounted for and I can tell you that in my house, you don't sleep out without anyone knowing your whereabout. Of course, you can't tell my mum or oldest brother you want to go spend a night/more in a guy's house. They don't even want to hear you have a boyfriend, but they somehow knew I did when I was seeing someone. All my life, the only telling I did was when I was formerly proposed to, though, it later didn't work out. The few occasions I've had to disappear was from school for 3days even as an adult, they must not hear of it. Like 2yrs ago, my eldest bro wanted to know whom I was dating, but I refused and ignored his enquiries with smiles, telling him to leave me alone 'cause I hate disappointments. I have a self-con to myself, I have independence and I have one or two places to go to for sleepovers, but I don't bug. You can never see me outside my house by 8 for security reasons. I don't expect you to be me, but I think you're complaining about irrelevance for now. Lastly, the only man you should introduce to your parents is the one ready to marry you.

You Sound As a well Trained and Responsible lady..

Change your ID........ you don't sound like it!

Just an advice though
Re: Living With My Parents Is Putting Me At A Disadvantage by Nobody: 7:24pm On Sep 26, 2019
I understand your how you feel, you can't be 24 and have your parent monitor all your movements i mean you are supposed to be able to determine how you want to live with modesty tho...best bet is to try an get a job outside town
Re: Living With My Parents Is Putting Me At A Disadvantage by Mryacks: 7:25pm On Sep 26, 2019

I can understand the situation.

It's always tough in those years of 24, 25 etc.
Peer pressure and its influences.

See...the future will always come and today be gone

Lady, harden your mind.
I know its a tough thing to do.
Forget about what your girlfriends are doing, hopping around and having fun with guys etc.
Take advantage of these days and improve yourself.
Read. Watch educative programs.
Broaden your worldview.
Empower yourself with knowledge.

Before long you will get a good job and moving out and a guy coming into your life will happen like tap water. Fact.

Your hormones are shouting abi, just be careful. You should be happy having parents who care about you to monitor you. I once dated a lady who came over ma place spent 1 week without her parents asking bout her. How did i get to know? i came back home 1 late evening to find her crying i cuddled her and asked her what the issue was and she told me how no 1 has called to know how she was faring. Babe be happy you have parents who care!

I had to create this account today for this. It's really eating me up and I am tired.
I am 24, will be 25 soon. I am this indoor person and so I hardly meet people. My first relationship ended like two years back and I haven't been in a reasonable one since then.
I meet people online cos I don't get to meet them offline, most of the guys I meet are based in different state from mine and they don't mind me visiting, but once I tell them I live with my parents and would need their permission to come visit, they just stop getting in touch. I have lost over 5 potential partners because of this, they all feel we should be comfortable with ourselves first before putting parents matter into it. Some don't see it as a big deal living with my parents, they just find it funny that they wouldn't allow me go visit my boyfriend(note that they wouldn't know him bfr I go visit)
I can't even think logically anymore that's why I am here to ask Wether the problem is with me or them. The only one I met that has travelled to come visit me is verbally abusive. He met my mum and wants things done the proper way.
I am really exhausted. I guess gone are those days where you have to meet your potential wife in her father's house.
I told my mum I want to start attending youth church and she object to it saying I can only change church after I get married.
My sisters are lucky tho, they got a job outside our state and moved out of the house cry
Re: Living With My Parents Is Putting Me At A Disadvantage by Kevinsamba: 7:45pm On Sep 26, 2019
First of all why do u want to stay beyond 7 outside my friend go home pick a book and read believe me you will achieve more that way
Now from what you said, you clearly not above 24 I would advise you stay with your parents especially if you are the last born believe me, you will laugh at the end but if you really want out then you got to get your bom bom off the couch and go and find a job so you can prove to them that you are mature enough to stay alone cool

Op you have parents that even want to make a better woman out of you and you are here complaining of meaningless freedom. You want to travel to meet guys, you want to leave on your own,are you that cheap? Just be careful of yourself. I don't want to hear this your complaints again.
You even have a shop, yet you are complaining of not going out, is something wrong with you?

Why do you people seek advice when you aren't ready to accept one?

It's only in Africa that an overgrown female refuses to be independent.

I would have chipped in some things if only you are doing anything reasonable with your life. This sounds like a teenager who wants to run away from home. You need to grow up and not chronologically but in wisdom and responsibility.

It's a very s!lly move to visit a guy you haven't established a proper relationship with. "Come to my house, come to my house" is another way of saying "come have sex, come have freaking sex!"

You really said some thing bro...the word chook me sha. Many who have never experience this won't believe you. In life experience is the great teacher. Everybody is usually stubborn until they've seen for themselves.

Women cannot stay long without a man in their lives. However, a man can do it. Only thing he needs is sex once in a while, but a woman needs a companion in a man.

Do not forget to look at the bright side of your situation; the fact that you are still been supervised by your parent, shows that you are well brought up and not from a broken home. Any man you meet online, who does not want to visit you at your parent's house does not have good intention (perhaps, he's the hit-and-run type).

It's left to you to make your parent understand, that sooner or later, you are going to get married, so they should allow you to entertain male visitors, else you would do it secretly, outside their home.
