Asking Her Parents For Her Hand In Marriage: funny couple storytime | Naomi and Jack 

Feeling nosey? 👀 Got a question you would like us to answer? 🤔 Reply below and we might answer it in a future Q&A video 👇🏼👇🏿

“All we can do is pray” Naomi’s mum is so funny

That’s so funny how she said they didn’t know who he was. 😂 African parents don’t want you having boyfriends but want you to magically have a husband

Hahahahahah “all we can do is pray” woow that’s really best part of the story ..🤣😂😂😂

This was so funny to me. As Jack was telling the story I assumed mom was praying. Mom was waiting to hear from God. Jack you did the right thing. That was the ultimate act of respect. Don't listen to other people you did right.

Awesome story that had me smiling all the way through. I’m full of happiness now. The kind you get from laughing an extended time. Of course the parents should be involved. Good manners never gets old.

Naomi “my man is brave” 😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣

Well done Jack you are a real man and very respectful in doing the right thing by asking for her parents blessings Good luck to you both.

Wow!!! 🤣🤣🤣 The whole time I was thinking she is just praying. This story is hilarious!

I'm from the USA and I think the tradition should continue is nice when a man ask the parents for their daughters hand in marriage!!!

Found this video on my way to ask my girlfriend's parents lol. Thanks for sharing. It helped a lot. Wish me luck!

That was a nice story! Jack! You are the man! Proud of you! All men should do this! I like you guys as a couple.

Love it ,great job ,I love old school can’t go wrong .

If a girl's parents are alive I think it's essential he ask the parents for their blessing at least .

Brilliant. I never laughed so much with the waffle and tea story and your wife’s African parents. I’m new to your channel as I stumbled upon it by accident. I needed a laugh today. Glad it all worked out though. Lol. All the best to you both. My parents are Caribbean and my boyfriend is Italian. He met my sisters and father and not my mum who is kind of like Naomi’s mum... No boyfriends etc lol.

Cute... Lovely story!

You two just make me smile. All the best on your journey. ❤️

I'm sitting here in tears, laughter tears, oh poor Jack....I.love that story. You guys need to write a book. I so love you guys. Please have a great life.

“All we can do is pray” wow 😂

Ah!!!! What a gentleman, it's always good to asked the parents.

Hilarious but beautiful story. New subbie that's now hooked

A new subscriber this is so fricking funny, this has got to be the best “asking to marry” scenario

WOW....This was the funniest!!!! I so enjoy watching you two.

Asking for her hand in marriage is a sign of respect. Very proper. It lays a foundation for a good relationship with the in-laws, and family unity is very important.

I agree Naomi , he is brave , I was feeling the tension as he spoke. Thumbs up to you

🤣😆😂 Too funny. ❤️ it. So happy for you two. Be greatly blessed!

since you asked for hand in marriage stories, my husband is from Africa too, Egypt specifically and we met in germany although I am American so neither of us had our families in Germany with us. He didn't ask my father to marry me in part because in the late 80s it was difficult to get an international call though. Usually one had to pay a high price for a few minutes and arrange the call from a center outside of the home (this was before international home calling, computer, cell phones etc). He returned home to Cairo, sent me a ticket to join him and we were married in the foreigner's office. It was on the honeymoon in Bankok that there was a possibility to call the US and my father answered but had no idea that I had left Germany, traveled to Cairo, got married and was now in Bangkok. Once I covered all of that I told him I got married and he was quiet and then my husband with his thick Arab accent said "Hi Dad it is nice to meet you!"...now my dad is not a real friendly guy and is a Trump voter etc....but he says Hello and the call was very awkward. Then a few weeks later we flew to the US unannounced and took a shuttle to my parents house late at night, knocked on the door and my parents were surprised we came back! So that first night was awkward introducing my husband and then taking him into my childhood bedroom (I was raised Mormon so no boys ever came before my husband). That was in 1988. We are still together today

Well done Jack but story very funny😂😂 now that was a nice cup of tea for me this morning 😂😂 by the way my husband ask my dad too and gave his blessings and we have been married for 26 years . We were 21

This is so beautiful. Sorry, I'm so soppy!

All we can do is pray...wow😅😅😅

You got to admit, African parents can make it really hard sometimes. Jack and Naomi, your story telling is everything... LOL.. I hope Naomi still has family in Zambia, it would really be interesting to hear what the Zambian relatives say after they meet you and all the different types of feed they will try and make you eat. LOL

It was funny when my husband ask my dad for my hand n marriage lol he said he was super nervous as well but he too wanted to make a fast exit was pretty funny thinking back 50 years ago lol

OMG just similar story but I talk a juice instead of hot tie 😂😂 😂🤣 . It's not easy to met an Aftican parent but bless God everything went well .. Much love from us

LOL!!! I still like that ole school vibe of asking the parents for their daughter hand in marriage. One day I pray my dad will come but I don't want that type of experience. LOL

And I am going to bring him to my yard? -> That's London coming out girl!!!!!!!!

I watched this at the beginning of the quarantine and I am still smiling April 2021. It's just.sooo beautiful ❤️. I wish you all the best with you studies Naomi and I hope you love each other for as long as Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip. 🤣❤️

My husband didn't ask my parents he asked me and I said yes and 23 years later we're still together.

I laughed so hard until I was literally crying really good story

I think it is very respectful to the parents for you to ask them or tell them. One day you will have kids and what would you want them to do? Just also want to say; Naomi your smile is so contagious! Keep smiling!

Lol, I LOVED IT!

You guys got banter 😍😁 maybe your mom was praying in tongues

Two lesson I got from here, No tea and Elaine 😂😂

Feeling a bit uncomfortable that you're calling them by their names. That's the African side of me I guess 😉😉

Naomi you are actually Zambian???? Awww!!! I thought you were Nigerian. No wonder I'm always on your channel! I'm Zambian too. My boyfriend is American (white guy). For me there will be no surprises because both our parents already know about us. We have no way of hiding it because of distance. We are forced to share all our plans especially vacations taken together because no African parent will allow their daughter go where they do not know 🤣 even though I am in my 30's now. Anyway I have thoroughly enjoyed this video. I can't believe Zambian parents allowed him to come see them without "utubale" 😂

Soo funny 😂 I absolutely love watch you two!! But seriously can we discuss this character defamation?? I know how to keep a secret!!🙄

I subscribed love watching

I think that tradition should continue reason for that it is respect for the parents and also it is the right to because it shows very much that you are a good person and the love you have for this person whom you're dating.

Parents? They want to give you away but don't want anyone to take you. No one is quite right! 😂 I wonder if they ever really come around. Daddy was still calling his son in law " that guy you married" sixteen years later! 😳 What can you do? Not a thing!😜 I enjoy your channel! Ty!

Naomi are you zambian 🇿🇲? Just curious 🥰

Jackie you trip me out a better word is you crack me up🤪😂😂😂😂🤣🤣 her mother would like to know he ain't trying to take my baby from me that's one of the reason why you didn't get no response she had no problem with she just thought he trying to take my daughter from me it was so funny how you look back over Memory Lane until the actual story to the RU-vid people I'm loving it

I love the idea of asking for someone’s hand in marriage prior to proposing. In some ways I think it is asking for the parents to accept you as part of their family and a respectful and loving thing to do. Although you are marrying one person, you are marrying into their whole family, and these parents are people who you want to accept and support that.

I would Iove to have a private live chat with the two of you. I am in my sixty' and I am single and no matter which video I watch there is always something touching and inspiring from both of that makes me click. I am in the Caribbean and England is often referred to as my second home since I worked for the Airlines . I would love to meet you or chat with you online . I just watched your video on Jamie and Nikki's situation and you had a lot of advice that I am sure touched a lot of people. I await your response.

I have been fighting a cough and your story is threatening to get me coughing😬😂😂😂😂😭🤣🤣you know covid has made coughin the big C, bigger than the original C word. Well when i was 19 long time ago. Some 30something years ago, a guy i liked wanted to marry me but i was not sure. He was kind of nice but wet blanket. I said please write to my dad and he is very intuitive enough to make me know we are ready. So he did write. My dad was a Rwandan Aristocrat, stickler for detail, etiquette and good manners. Your man as they would say in Ireland pulled out a scrap piece of paper from a shorthand lil book and using a pencil jotted some words down. I was not there where he was in Kenya, i was in Uk and papa was in Uganda. So he posted the omnious bit of paper to a man who is very kind but cant abide by foolishness! I was minding my own business in London when the familiar papa writing arrived by airmail. Snail mail to you millenials and us Boomers, its like concord then! Concord was a fast plane that probably played record players and cassettes in between videos VHS😳. On opening i see it has something enclosed but i go for my papa letter. I read the news bit and then papa says. Please find here enclosed something that has bothered me. First of all am glad you honour me with wanting my blessing for a life partner. The youngman probably intended to be courteuos but what iam left with is a dilemma. Did he write this poorly becausr of foolishness or plain lack of care? I find neither excusable and so am not saying do not marry him or do Marry him. I just please ask you to kindly not let him be a relative of mine🤣🤣🤣or his father who is a polygamist. Bye. Love Papa
