@ TANUSHKA: не участвовать в любого рода присягу, особенно в крови одно! Не делайте этого, пожалуйста! : О Вас время беременности, и он счастлив, hmm. Это НЕ означает, что он готов взять на себя ответственность и жениться вам. Что делает он зарабатывают на жизнь? Где он живет сейчас? Если он живет в России сейчас, как долго он существует? Какова его иммиграционный статус? Пожалуйста, очень осторожно, очень общие для африканских мужчин жениться белых женщин, только чтобы получить иммиграционные документы. |

Очень жаль слышать, что, Tanushka. Я надеюсь, что все работает для наилучшего. Как давно вы? Планируете ли вы оставаться в России? Или поселиться в Дании или других в конечном итоге? Кстати, я посетила Санкт-Петербург недавно, красивый город с великой историей. Я всегда хотел посетить, после прочтения книги на продовольственную блокаду в Ленинграде. |

Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by janami(f): 1:51pm On Nov 11, 2007 |
oaths wit a guy? God forbid. that is a one way ticket to death here in nigeria. i mean, i have been dating my boyfriend for like 8 years and i will neva dream of taking an oath with him. not in my wildest dreams even if i will love to keep him. the thing is that oat taking is very dangerous here in nigeria. it requires some traditional routines and rituals that ar very binding. something like if u look at another man with lust or even think of sleeping with another guy, either u run mad or u die. oaths are very dangerous |
Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by janami(f): 1:55pm On Nov 11, 2007 |
and to clarify smtg, not everybody is doing it in Nigeria. rather, i think almost everybody is trying to steer clear of it. if u ask a guy in naija to take oaths with u, the guy will RUN |

siena, what's that? |
Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by shoti(m): 2:02pm On Nov 11, 2007 |
i just wish to drop one or two hints about ur point.the issue of oaths come to place when there is no trust in a relationship.i can tell u that from experience. that nobody ever did that without regret.we should know that game of love should be a willing act not by acting under a spell.dont succumb to pressure.the resuit is always not good. |
Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by TANUSHKA(f): 2:07pm On Nov 11, 2007 |
IF TO BE HONEST WE HAVE DONE THAT, COS HE WAS NOT AROUND FOR SOME MONTH AND WEN HE CAME BACK TO ME HE WAS SO HAPPY AND HE DIDNT KNOW HOW TO PROVE THAT HE HAS STRONG FEELINGS 4 ME. HE ASKED ME TO TAKE AN OATS AND I WAS AGREED AFTER SOME MONTH I WAS VERY ANGRY WIT HIM AND SAID DAT I WANT TO BROKE IT UT IT WAS NOT THE FIRST TIME WEN I ASKED THAT AND HE ALWAYS RUN AVAY FROM HOUSE IF I BRING THIS TIPIC. BUT THE LAST TIME I SHOWED HIM HOW SERIOUS I AM.WE FIGHT 3 HOURS BEFORE WE DID IT. HE WAS CRYING BUT WE BROKE IT UP. |
Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by TANUSHKA(f): 2:14pm On Nov 11, 2007 |

Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by janami(f): 2:22pm On Nov 11, 2007 |
the thing is, the people we might feel so close to, might love with our whole heart and think the world revolves around them might not be the person that we will get married to. i like to be a realist. one's affections can change anytime and anyday. one can never tell. and i think ur boyfriend was wrong to key into ur ignorance of this whole oath issue. u guys broke what up? the oat or the relationship. i advise that u go for deliverance o |

Taking a blood oath is not really a nigerian tradition. It is a spiritual thing. Dont do it. I think your word is enough. You dont have to make any promise backed by blood. If at any time you change your mind about being with him, a lady is allowed to change her mind. |
Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by arinzology(m): 3:14pm On Nov 11, 2007 |
JUNAMI WHY U WAN SPOIL DAT 9JAH GUY RUNS, NO TRY AM OOOOO. ALLOW DAT HUSSLA TO DO HIS RUNS WELL ABEG NO POUR SANSA 4 HIM GARI. |
Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by walcolm(m): 3:41pm On Nov 11, 2007 |
Tanushka, as you have been advised by an earlier post, blood oath is not a nigerian thing!!! it is quite rare in modern day nigeria. it is a universally EVIL practise that can jeopardise your life. do not allow him to force you into such a thing all the best |
Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by ifyalways(f): 4:43pm On Nov 11, 2007 |
oath taking is not a nigerian thing. it is an evil praticise. dont do it for any reasons. its hardly revokable. its consequences are very grave. BUT if you go ahead and do it or have done it already,then I PRAY YOU DONT REGRET IT . |
Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by faketan(m): 5:30pm On Nov 11, 2007 |
As my wife has said earlier, please do not go into oat taking except for public office. I have been with ify. . for a long time (6 years) and we have been doing it fine but no oath(blood or water) but we are good together even though Toshman, Romeo and Ikomi are jealous. Sorry do not do it. It is bad. But if you insist, we can take you guys to Okija. |
Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by finekid(m): 5:36pm On Nov 11, 2007 |
What is his reason for wanting blood oath? In any case my advise is please don't do such a thing! |
Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by TANUSHKA(f): 5:45pm On Nov 11, 2007 |

Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by spoilt(f): 5:52pm On Nov 11, 2007 |

Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by Nobody: 7:22pm On Nov 11, 2007 |
Tanushka, sorry about my poor script! Please, don't do any sort of oath, blood or otherwise! Why is he so determined to tie you down? Bible? Blood oath?? Girl, run, and keep running!! Something stinks about the whole set-up. I think the pregnancy is also part of his ploy to tie you down! Who's idea was the pregnancy? Please answer honestly, don't say "it was a joint decision", because I don't buy it! |
Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by Nobody: 7:25pm On Nov 11, 2007 |
Tanushka, please tell us what he does for a living. Not just, "he works". You've used the term "able to realise himself". What exactly do you mean? |
Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by presido1: 7:36pm On Nov 11, 2007 |
Siena:Why do u want to put words into her month, you asked her question at the same time telling her the ansa you will not accept. Na wah ooo. |
Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by beneli(m): 7:52pm On Nov 11, 2007 |
@ Siena Kak eto ti pishish porussky? Ti Uchilsa V Rossi chto li? |
Re: My Boyfriend Wants To 'Take An Oath' In Nigeria by Nobody: 8:46pm On Nov 11, 2007 |
presido1: I didn't answer the question I asked, neither did I put words into her mouth. It's either one or the other that decided to have a baby. Unless a baby was planned from the onset, which I doubt. A bit more info makes a difference to whatever answers she'll get from here. |
