If your younger sister is dating someone you once rejected, how would you react?

Firstly, it depends on what I see in the guy before rejecting his offer. If what I saw wasn’t good, I’ll tell my sister not to marry or date him, without any selfish interest.

—Nike Babalola.

 

Life goes on. I didn’t accept in the first place because I probably didn’t like him. So now that he has moved on to ask someone else out, no big deal. —Blessing Ibikunle

 

I’ll leave them to go on with their thing as far as I rejected his proposal. Any relationship he enters into is none of my business unless there’s something bad about him that I would want my sister to know. I’ll tell her to quit then. —Elisha Treasure

 

For the fact that he doesn’t know the relationship between my sister and I, I will leave them to date each other without any grudge so far I rejected his proposal and he later found someone who accepted for him. There’s nothing more I can do to stop it. One man’s food is another man’s poison after all. In order not to cause family issues again, I will call my sister and tell her the plain truth that there’s nothing between the guy and I. So she’s to do anything she likes.

First of all, there must have a reason for me rejecting his proposal; maybe because he is not my kind of man. If I found out he went ahead to date my younger sister without him knowing who she is to me, I won’t be mean or react harshly because before my younger sister accepted his proposal, she must have seen something special in him. The fact that we have same blood running in our veins doesn’t mean we should like and value the same thing. So as for me, I will wish them the best. —Adepoju Damilola

 

I won’t be hurt that much because by then I’ll be having my own boyfriend right beside me —Arowolo Abigail

 

I will leave them alone if I know I truly love my sister. It’s not their fault or his fault that I didn’t accept.  —Ashamu Adedolapo

Well, in the first place, I have no right to be angry. I didn’t accept the offer so he can actually go ahead to date anybody else. If there was no sexual intimacy between us, then it is no bad idea if he dates my younger sister. Now that he doesn’t even know we’re related, he’s pardoned. I might be angry if I still like him. But if I really don’t want to have anything to do with him, then there’s no reason kicking against my sister and him seeing each other. —Oyewunmi Damilola

 

Really, I won’t feel bad because I rejected him initially and he doesn’t even know the other girl happens to be my sister. I would rather accept it as fate because I rejected his offer so why not wish my sister well.

—Obanewa Oreoluwa

 

I have to let them go. —Oluwadare Oluwadunsin

 

I will give them the chance to date. He is completely unaware and so shouldn’t be stopped from dating my sister because it’s not enough reason to stop love from existing between the both of them. —Abisola Abayomi

 

Wow! If it is just dating, then my sister has to quit the relationship but if he really wants to marry her then I have nothing to do to it.  —Itunuoluwa Abass

 

Not dating him in the first place should actually mean I don’t love him or he was in a serious relationship. For the fact that the guy isn’t aware of the family ties, I will just to leave him to date my sister and everybody remains in peace.  —Catherine Adeleye

 

If there was a genuine reason I rejected him, it is necessary to let my sister know. I don’t necessarily have to persuade her to reject him too.  In other words, I will let my sister know the guy and I have a history so that it doesn’t cause problem later on. —Opeyemi Adejumo

I can’t do anything because I didn’t accept and my sister did. —Opeoluwa Adenakan

I’ll just leave them since I was the one who rejected the offer not that my sister later went for the guy after I had accepted him.

 Oreoluwa Ogunbade

 

I will be firstly mad and I will talk to him then leave them. We probably aren’t meant for each other. Sunmisola Olukayode

 

I’m going to leave them alone since I wasn’t interested in him in the first place.
