I warned my pastor to stop putting marital pressure on me.
So today I had to call my resident pastor to order.
I am a 30yrs old guy and in a relationship with a lovely lady of 25. It’s been 6 good years together building and improving ourselves.
I come from a family where nobody mounts pressure on anybody especially on marriage issue. My parents are so liberal that they trust our judgements and allow us to marry from anywhere we find love despite fact that we are igbos…………………………CONTINUE READING
I and my fiancee have been through different stages of life because she was 19 when we met, I was a dead broke ass graduate then without a job and still going from one interview to the other. I was so broke that my young fiancee then was the one giving me money to go for the interviews (she was running her mom’s store then). Aside that she would bring food and sometimes get me clothes. When I say I was broke, I mean totally broke
God did it I secured a job of 60k a month and a year later got a more improved job of 100k. I don’t drink and don’t spend recklessly, I was able to save and began a POS business which my fiancee 20yrs as at then was running for me in her mom’s store while I was working. To Cut long story short, my fiancee is in her 300L now in school while I have ventured into other business and I can say I make about 500k monthly combined.
On reason why I caution my pastor, in church I am one of the youth leaders and a key figure and most of my friends or mate in the ministry are married and my resident pastor took it upon herself to always use me for jokes or call my name from the alter to go and marry.
You’d here bro sososo go and marry and the congregation will laugh, during meeting you will hear word like don’t be like bro sososo who wants to become a grandpa bachelor.
Once any member marries you will hear bro sososo we are waiting ooooo.
Like I don’t find that funny, she is mounting unnecessary pressure on me which I don’t like. Will she be the one to take care of my family?
Sometimes she goes as far as introducing a sister in the church to me.
So today I had enough, called her after service and told her my mind. I know she will feel disappointed but for my mental health I needed to put a stop to that rubbish.
My friends in church are married and to be sincere they look like shadow of themselves.
