Babsonline: LADIES and GENTLEMEN - seriously..I need you to look into this issue and let me have your view as quickly as possible.
(pls pardon my use of short form in some parts of the text..this was typed from a mobile device)
I won't bother you with long Novel-like narrations but go straight to the crux of the matter.

My name is Dr. Samson Babatunde. I am a medical practitioner, aged 27 and presently on youth service in Port Harcourt. My fiancee is a soldier (yea..you saw that right, a soldier). She went to the Nigerian Army School of Supply and Transport sometimes in 2010 at a tender age of 18.

Initially, when she made her intentions known to me that she wanted to join the military, I had my objections cos I just couldn't imagine our future together then (a soldier married to a doctor?...it did sound odd then). She told me about how she had already made up her mind to go ahead and how it was a kinda once in a lifetime opportunity for her..She went ahead with stories of how her uncle who was a Brigadier-General put her name and encouraged her to join, with his support.
I begged her to rescind her decision and even threaten to cut off the relationship if she went ahead to enlist(of course I didn't meant that. I only wanted to discourage her and for her to see reasons with me). I told her she didn't have to do anything..that I would be contented to have her as my full-time housewife. All that fell on deaf ears. She was only 18 for crying out loud..I thought she was to young for the hassles of military life. She went ahead anyways...and I had no option but to wish her the best. Deep in my mind, I thought she wouldn't be able to make it past the first round of military training before she would give up and return back to me but she proved me wrong..she looked very innocent and beautiful on the outside but deep down, she had that strong spirit and doggedness to accomplish anything she set her mind to..whatever it is. I guess she might have displayed that strong will on the training ground. She went in as an innocent teenager but within that short spate of her training, she was transformed into a beautiful young woman-soldier.

There was still something about her that the military had not touched though..that sense of homeliness..that fire that keeps burning in her eyes everytime I looked at them..that thought of her that follows every of my heartbeat, then I realized my love for her took precedence over our choice of career path or whatever anyone might want to think about that..

I promised I would not bother you with all the fairy-tale details of how much we love and mean to each other but I must quickly mention here that she is my earth, my sun and my rain. That much I loved her! and of course she gave me reasons to trust her too(mind you, that is all I ever wanted).

...since then her military career had taken her all around Africa from the deserts of Darfur to the Portlands of Monrovia on peace mission (she got my endorsements before proceeding on each after convincing me that it wasn't like she was going to be on the battlefield)...For her age (22) that is a feat too many.

While all that was happening for her, I too was being transformed from that 'myopic' undergraduate into a young Medical doctor..

Now fast forward till present day...my parents think it's odd for us to be together as husband and wife..(they have always known us together but never thought it would go beyond 'just friends' ). MY mum specifically cited her inability to be able to effectively and efficiently combine her job with running her home..and dad simply fears if she will be able to totally 'submit' and be loyal to me as a wife on the long run..I have tried to douse their fears that she may be a soldier but I am still the 'man' but they wouldn't hear any of it..
Now how do I explain to my mum that she cooks the second best meal I have tasted after her own food (she works at the Catering Service section of NASST)...and my dad that she is most submissive and respectful person to me (even though we are yet to be married) and to every other person that she means the whole world to me..I need a way people!
