Sam’s Hangout #130 - “FRIENDS, FAMILY & FEUDS"

"The family feuds or the village feuds often had to do with an idea of honor." – V. S. Naipaul.


Hello, my lovely Hive Naija people. It’s another beautiful weekend, and we’re excited to have you here once again. A new weekend simply means another chance to buzz the Hive blockchain, connect with one another, and simply have fun. You'll also agree with me that there’s something special about bringing everyone together to gist, share opinions, and enjoy good vibes. That is exactly the reason we will continue to meet every weekend.

The responses were super amazing and we had over 20 comments filled with honest opinions, jokes, harmless banter, and fresh perspectives to learn from. The energy was truly contagious. Now, let’s see if we can beat our all-time high again this weekend, shall we? Please try to encourage responses by replying to one another. Remember, engagement is what makes this hangout special.

FRIENDS, FAMILY & FEUDS

Now to our discussion for this weekend! We will be discussing "FRIENDS, FAMILY & FEUDS”.
Asides names, traditions and values, many people inherit the grudges of their friends and families. A friend tells them about someone they dislike, a family member expects them to avoid a particular relative, while others are introduced to someone with a story they never experienced personally. Before they even form their own opinion, they may already be expected to choose a side. But how much of loyalty should involve carrying someone else's conflicts?

Here's the question!

Do you think it is necessary to distance yourself from people your friends or family have fallen out with, even when you have no personal problem with them? If yes, how high would you describe your loyalty? If no, where do you draw the line at inheriting grudges?

OR

Have you ever disliked or avoided someone simply because of what you had heard about them from a friend or family member or something offensive they did to them? Did it influence how you began to see and relate with them? If yes, explain how you felt about all of it. Did you ever reconsider friendship with them?

If you have a topic you would like us to discuss in our future hangouts, please feel free to suggest it to us in the comment section and tag @sam.hangout to it.


Okay Let's Gist!!!

Be as simple and sincere with the discussion, hehehe.

Don't you think we are forgetting somebody?... Well, I'm sure we are...

FRIDAY PLANS, OWANBE SATURDAY, AND SUNDAY REFLECTIONS

To make our hangout more interactive, we have decided to add two events to spice it up.

On Saturdays, we share our owanbe stories, party gists, and even pictures.

On Sundays, we reflect on the weekend and things we learnt so far, as well as share plans for the new week.

Don't forget to join us!!

There are no strict rules as regards this weekend hangout. Feel free to speak any Nigerian language you like, whether Igbo, Yoruba, pidgin, Efik, or others, as long as it can be understood.

Please, do not take it to the extreme.

With all that said, let the discussion begin...

This whole inheritance of grudges when I can simply inherit your huge account balance without dieing anytime soon 😂 is not reasonable to me. For me, myself and I alone, I don't inherit grudges either it's a family, friend or whatever but it may only become inherited when you choose to divert the aggression or heat of your grudge with that person to me. That's where we call it a shot.

I was once in the middle of 2 friends with one badmouthing the other to me while the 2nd is not that type. Later later later on, breeze blew from someone to the 2nd and the yansh of fowl was seen and they stayed off from each other. It still doesn't mean I'm not friends with them but the previous act of the first made her reduce the closeness which is fine. Either they remain fighting or reconcile after the attempts, I am not expected to hold a side because you feel so. I'll rather try to settle and let it be if it's not settleable

Gimme money to inherit nor fight 😜
Oya @marsdave @goldenproject @chefqueen @van.illa @soma1 how many fights you don inherit?

Happy weekend guys 🤗

There is a saying that if someone doesn't like the parents, there is no way he will like the children. And to som extent we see these things materializing.

Now i am not a fan of inheriting anybody's problem. The thing is , if i notice my family is not in good terms with a person, i can't stop greeting the person, i wil, but the level of my relationship with the person will be very different. There will be s distance and i will trade with caution. Because some of them might still want to hurt you because they had issues with your parents.

My own is, greet them and go your way.

It’s a big NO for me.

I had an issue with a friend back at university, because of this mindset, she always expected me to distance myself from people she had issues with. I don't inherit enemies, not even from family members, I prefer to have my experience, build my narrative and observe people myself.

Loyalty doesn't mean inheriting someone's enemy, that's not loyalty to me and will never be, every relationship is different. I can be loyal to a loved one without making their enemies mine.

I only draw the line when someone’s actions directly affect me , when they disrespect my boundaries, or involve serious wrongdoing, until then, I believe people deserve to be judged by their own actions towards me and not another person.

I agree with you that i can be loyal to my family and friends without making their enemies to mine

I can't dislike someone just because he's not good with family or friends because I never know the story.

Mostly it happens to us that some family members aren't so good with each other but they're good with us and I'm good with them. I can't let this to inherit and sow a new seed of hate my life.

If I heard about something a person that he's not good with others then i can make my own boudries but this doesn't mean i totally cut out from him, it means i try to less communicate but i will there untill there's ness to be...

Enjoy your weekend 😺
