...twas the sisters wedding rant

Boss · 02-20-2008, 10:25 AM

"twas beautiful...everything exactly as it was planned out. Her dress was beautiful. Everything was sharp. I've never seen her this happy since she got that job...that was almost a year ago...but now she's going to be a Mrs.

She's been dreaming of this most of her life. 26 and married, finally my mum can shut up. She bothered the girl too damn long, the girl was about to just pick anybody up she saw on the street and beg the person to put a ring on her finger, even if it were a surgical ring. But now, it was a case of the ex. A good guy she must have dumped down the road of endless fruitless heart-broken relationships. Old boy has grown now from the 19 year old i remember. Now 28, focused on his career as a Counselor at a Child Abuse Center. I could see what my sister was looking for in him? But why wait so long...why go thru all those jerks and assholes? Who knows...but now she's wise up. She bumped into him and didnt even front about wanting him back. I guess that's wut desperation almost does to you. Makes u actually beg someone to marry u not look for a proposla...but s'all good. My man and her took their time and I wish them a happy life.

But I can't forgive my mother for what she did. 'The Obianuhu family please" The fotografa called out. Ok S'all good, I'm looking good for the camera with my new Invicta watch and my killer suit I just bought from the S&K just for the wedding. I'm looking fresher than febreeze and my gf is just looking at me teasingly. Next thing my mom comes out with her mouth "Hey Sara, u better be coming o...soon to be Obianuhu"

I was shocked. I looked at Sara...she was still laughing. My mum looked at me with all the seriousness without realizing what she has done. I heard my cousin snicker. I was about to bust his head and my sister whispered into my ear "Now it's ur turn".

It's my turn....no. Not yet. I'm mad at my mum...now she's got ideas put into Sara's head that I dunno. Each time I mention the wedding to a friend, she'd mention the joke...it's not funny to me. Is she trying to give me a hint? I dont know. I mean, come on? Marriage? Come on..I still have to go to grad school for my MBA and other stuff first before I settle down and think of marrying and having kids and all that...come on? Marriage. I mean, me and Sara having been dating a while now...except for our ons and offs most people who'd have married after time we have dated. I can't bear the reality of a marriage. It's not we are not serious about our relationship but isnt it too far fetched? It doesnt help my mum likes the girl and she keeps telling me to be serious about her. Doesnt help she's half-nigerian too. If only my mum had a problem with Filipinos...she'd have told me to get rid of her. Cant forget how she told me never let Kendria into the house because she had a tatoo on her breasts. I guess my mum had a foresight coz how would I have known Kendria was just another ghetto queen? Upon all the college education? Sha.

Then there was this solemnity during the wedding, almost like a funerla. I saw Kenneth's firends shaking him but not with bright smiles like Ada's friends were...more like "O boy u fuck up" kinda fake smile...or like the kind of smile u give a friend as encouragement when they lost a loved one...yeh something like that. And I feel them. Marriage, locked into a long-term contract...LONG LONG LONG term...like for the rest of ur life if u manage to dodge being a statistic. How do you do that? Not that my sister is a bad girl, but come on...Marriage is scary stuff. She prolly doesnt see it but I bet in 5 years things would be different...the honey moon stage would be over and then reality kicks in. But reminds me of something the boys said at the stag at the bar. I know all of us were wasted and we had to get taxis back to the hotel but I remember someone (I think Kayode) referring to Marriage as a life sentence without a chance of parole. coming from a married man, i can see that. But he said it always help to poke here and there. I hope Kenneth doesnt or else he'd have visitors at night. But wut am I going to do if I hear he's cheating? Probably not put my head in the business. Now I just have to figure a way out to get this thing out of Sara's head...maybe another fight is in order. Yeh she has been using my heater a lot. I guess I can use the bill and other stuff as an excuse for a fight, just to make her cry a little and be consumed in something else. By the time we make up, she'd be over it and we'll be back at home. Thanks mom."

Boss pls tell me u don't really feel that way....Well maybe for now, with ur education being first and really wanting to make it before gettin married (I can understand) But yeah man...Why do u view marriage as "lock down" or a "disturbance" to who you would like to be or what you would like to do?

"The restrictions, bound to one woman for eternity. No breaks, no free space. It's now no longer about you but everything is about you and her...it's about unselfishness, commitment and all that bullshit.

I've seen so many marriages go down including my parent's so why bother going through the whole bullshit? Infact Sara has started showing signs like she goes she got me hooked to her. She keeps denying me and at first I'm taking it easy but at the end of the day I'm going to call up one of her friends who I know will. She gets on my nerves a lot and I can deal with it, hell, this is not my first relationship but picture having this relationship for the rest of your life? I don't think I like that. I want my breathing space, I want to have fun you know? Not get into the lockdown of marriage. At least not now, when I have a lot of life in front of me."

YinkusBabe · 02-22-2008, 07:02 AM

Boss, I understand ur view now. --Maybe now just aint time for you. There really isnt a stamp of time when u would be ready, just dun be foolish and let whatz good pass you buy. In the end, it's all on you no matter what influences are around you...let it basically roll off ur shoulders. Oh yeah, it might help if u talk with Sara and let her know what irks you or what tha deal is ...instead of playin mind games...cos if yall r that serious and u don't wanna make that step yet, at least set a realistic expectation out of where y'all are headed.

well maybe Sarah is not the one for u! it's not as serious as u're making it seem. I don't see how marriage will hinder ur mba , isn't Sarah educated herself and she knows the sacrifice u need to put in to accomplish whatever u want.
Maybe it's just me sha , but i don't see what the big deal about marriage is..u either want it or u don't and speaking for myself it's not gonna be the hardest thing I've ever done or the biggest sacrifice I've ever made in my life, it's just another one of those things
