NO Regrets

[Perseverance 1]

With all of the Nigerian Bashing in this forum, I want to take the time to tell everyone that I love my NIGERIAN Husband. If I had the choice I would do it again. Like every marriage we have our ups and downs. We cherish our good times and WORK THROUGH the bad. NO marriage is without some sort of trouble, its how you handle the trouble that makes the difference. As many of you know I was married before and it was not by any means easy on me and almost cost me my life. I was given a second chance, and I told GOD that if I lived through that mess that it was because he meant for me to be here on this Earth. I took that bad experience and I turned my life around. I was at rock bottom and trying to climb back up when I met my NIGERIAN Husband. He knew that I was penniless he knew I had 3 kids, he knew that getting involved with me was not going to be easy for him, I was guarded. He was so kind an patient with me. I repeatedly asked GOD for signs that I was destined to be with this man. GOD would send me signs, and I would say, was that a sign? I need another just to make sure and I would get another. I prayed about this man daily, was this what I was suposed to do? Guide me Heavenly Father, please let me make no mistake, I have 3 children who rely on me with thier little lives. Guide me he did. When I did not know where the money would come from to go see my NIGERIAN Husband the first time, I prayed and GOD provided. That first trip was so wonderful neither one of us expected the deep conection that we had. We had been talking for months on the phone but that first meeting was so POWERFULL. When I had to leave it was very hard for both of us. Over a period of 2 years I went to see him 4 times, as much as I could afford. The last trip was for his interview. I took the time to get to know this man who woulld come to be my Husband. Since he has been here we have had some troubles but we love each other so we take the time to work through it. I am not afraid to tell the world that I love my NIGERIAN Husband!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope that everyone here can proudly stand up beside thier NIGERIAN Spouses. NIGERIANS often are LABELED as scammers because of some bad examples. Think about the bad seeds in all cultures, scams do not just come out of NIGERIA there are lots of other countries inculding our own. Before you point a finger at someone else remember there are four more pointing back at you.

Thank you for sharing your story. I wish you and your hubby a lifetime of happiness I hope one day that "someone" can move on with her life and stop trying to dampen the spirits of others....and say nasty things about Nigerians. It is unhealthy for ANYONE to label a country filled w/ millions of innocent people!!!!!

Yup yup, I agree....this was a great post!

Even though my husband is not Nigerian, I am close with many Nigerians and I grew up in a Nigerian household. I KNOW there are some bad ones, but there are even more good ones. EVERY country and culture has their share of good and bad.

This definitely brightened my day

Hello all

Perserverance like you I LOVE My Nigerian Husband

I meet my Nigerian husband because of mutual friends while visiting Ghana. We hung out a few hours a day during the week's visit and began to bond with one another. Our initial connection, sad to say was vanity (we both had cameras and kept giving our cameras to each other, we both wanted pictures of ourselves), and everytime it would happen we would laugh. Well after I arrived back home, we kept in touch. In our one year courtship I travelled to Ghana 3 times and he would always meet me there. I also went to Nigeria 2 times our visits were always atleast 2 weeks and 2 of them a month. Therefore, I was very comfortable with our relationship as we proceeded to obtain our visa. I could have not asked for a more compatable mate. MY NIGERIAN HUSBAND is WONDERFUL to me and my entire family. We have went from the initial giddiness of newly weds and have settled into a very warm and comfortable place and we grow closer together everyday.

As some know we our doing our BIG wedding this August, and just recently he has began to really get excited about the wedding (after I have done all of the hard work) he can see the plans coming together. So before I travelled; I gave him a list of wedding things to do. My wonderful husband booked a Nigerian catereer (the hall is allowing us to bring in food for 50, but we have to pay for the food with them also , a videographer, a Nigerian DJ, and he spent the weekend at my mothers house to stuff the wedding invitations and just to hang out with her .

He is a pain in the butt sometimes with the constant (Monk) cleaning and moving stuff around, but hey, better him than me .

He assists and encourges me to be the best person that I can be. I LOVE My Nigerian Husband
