How would your family react if you dated/married a non-Somali?

@VixR

Will your parents accept Igbo Nigerians like us?
No, but if you’re everything I hoped for but in a Aborigine or Niger-Congo package, I would fight for you lol. Then again, I’m not attracted to Nigerians that I’ve noticed, so it’s doubtful.

The thing is, my parents are a bit discriminating even with Somalis, so IDK how they thought that’d work out (that not only are Ajnabis barred, but a specific kind of Somali). It was doomed to fail.

When you say a specific kind of Somali do you of a certain tribe?

My parents already tried the whole forbidden relationships thing (Somali and not btw) with a couple of my siblings. The truth is, unless they’re those weird detached ones that literally disown their kids for something like that, they’ll come around eventually.
how is that weird? thats an act worth disowning

basically they thought it would work due to their high standards tbh, thing is your children don't always live up to par

Specific kind of somali aka MJs Lol. honestly assume you brought home a somali guy and he is everything your parents wanted for you including muslim. I know you not and its unlikely. But if he ticks every box they want for you except tribe.....would they really be against it?

MJs are the most open to marrying other clans lol, but she's issaq and their a bit more restrictive, I can see why though

Definitely....both my sisters married hawiye. My mum made fun of them called them darkskinned savages....which is factually correct. But she had no problem giving her daughters away. MJs in general are the least xenophobic qabil

My mum told me that she would disown me and she wouldn't want to see my kids. I don't know if she was being serious or not.

but you can see why Isaaq are more restrictive though right, remember they take ictiiraf to heart, the problem is their children are very caasi and they go overboard and go for ajanibis lol kind of like what @VixR was talking about

No, I meant, he has to be a specific kind of Somali, ie, from their tribe/region.

Believe it or not, as of three years ago, I didn’t know our tribe, just the region. They’ve never said anything of that nature to us about any tribe, nor do they speak about ours, but when it comes to marriage, they are discriminating.

It happened to my brother who wanted to marry a certain Somali girl, but they were against it, bc it wasn’t the specific kind they liked. Now he’s married to an American girl, and she’s married to an American guy. They didn’t want the second girl either, but guess what, he wasn’t going to fall for it a 2nd time.

So unless your family are the weird, detached type, maybe they’ll be upset at first, but they’ll have to accept your choice.

The only Somali guy I was ever into happened to be the right kind lol, but the odds of that happening again, if a Somali at all, are not high, so they’ll have to settle for what comes.

Daaamn they turned her down because of tribe. I bet given the choice they would take the somali I assume? When you say bith married american you mean non muslim whites?

And you never know your isaaq prince may be out there. Btw @Geeljire sanbuur is isaaq. But he may be too street for you:ftw9nwa:
