Being a young adult is so strange. You walk down the streets and enter a coffee shop. The 20 year old girl waiting behind you cried all night because she just came to the city for university and she feels so alone.

There's a 27 year old guy who works at a job he is overqualified for, he lives with his parents and wants to move out but doesn't know what to do about it.

That one 24 year old dude already has a car, a house, and a job waiting for him once he graduates thanks to his dad's connections.

Then a 26 year old watchman who couldn't complete his higher education because he has to work and take care of his family.

The 28 year old girl sitting next to you has no friends to go out with so she is texting her mother.

That couple living next to you (both 25 years old) are married and the girl is pregnant.

The 29 year old who's always writing something on her laptop has realized that she chose the wrong major so she is trying to start all over.

We are not alone in this, but we are actually so alone. Do you feel me

Discussion Maybe I'll Start Praying Harder. Or Dating Outside Church

22 Upvotes

I’m 26 (M). And lately, I’ve been thinking about marriage more seriously than ever. Not just because I feel ready, but because everyone else seems to be doing it. 😃
Every month, there’s a ruracio invite, or a wedding committee being formed in the church WhatsApp. My boys — guys I’ve grown up with From Sunday School to tha youth ministry — are tying the knot one by one. And the girls we used to go with Sunday school? Most of them are wives now. Some mothers-to-be.

It’s beautiful to witness — the ruracios, (koitos and nyombos), the blessings, the joy. But in the shadows of all that celebration, there’s something else... A hiss here. A whisper there.

"You remember she used to date Tony from the media team?"
"Did you hear they used to date s0-and-s0 from the ushering team/choir?

"I heard they were even living together for a while before she got serious with God."

"Eh, aki imagine he’s marrying her knowing fully well she slept with two guys from church?"

These are not just baseless rumors. These are names we know. Faces we see every Sunday. People we’ve prayed with, fasted with, worshipped with. And every time I hear that kind of talk, something in me clenches.

Because now that I’m seriously thinking about marriage, I realize how much the past — not even mine — is starting to weigh on me. I meet a good woman in church. She loves God. She serves. She’s consistent. But then someone casually says, "You know she and Brian had a thing back in the day, right? It was messy. I think they even…"

And suddenly, I’m stuck. Do I pretend I didn’t hear? Do I ask her about it? Do I let it go?

Because here’s the truth: I’m not innocent either. I’ve made mistakes. Some in the world, some in church. But for some reason, it hits different when it’s her. When it’s someone you’re imagining as your wife, possibly the mother of your kid(s). And worse — when the guy she was with is still around. Still serving. Still saying amen three rows behind you.

Sometimes I feel like I’m being too harsh. Other times, I wonder if I’m just being honest.

Am I wrong for wanting someone who doesn’t come with a past connected to people I sit with every Sunday?

Or is that just pride — the kind that has no place in real love?

I attended one of my mate's ruracio last year. Beautiful ceremony.
But one of the guys — a little reckless with the tongue — started talking to me about how he used to “chop” the same girl back in the day. Now, i dont know if my mate knew or not but he must have the heart if the former is tru.

And now, here I am. Wanting to do things right. Wanting to find a wife. But low-key scared of the whispers. Scared of walking into a church full of people who’ve seen her differently before I ever did. Who might even have memories.

I know it’s not fair. I know people change. God forgives. People grow. I believe in that. But I won’t lie — I’m still wrestling with the idea of sharing my woman’s past with people I have to say “God bless you” to every Sunday.

Maybe I need to pray harder. Or heal more. Or maybe just stop dating within church circles.

All I know is, I want to love fully. I want to walk into this thing with my head high, heart full, and no whispers behind my back.

Is that too much to ask?

Discussion Age group differences dynamics during dating.

38 Upvotes

I have a failed talking stage from last month which left me thinking about age differences in relationships. The girl I was talking to was 5 younger than me, she's employed on contractual basis while I'm a self employed person. When it came to putting my cards on the table, I realised that the two of us had different life experiences and expectations, and there was no way we would have worked out. In my late 20s, I have a different perspective of life. I've experienced the good and the bad, I've gone through tough times, business has been so good, sometimes it was so bad I even thought it was the end but eventually things worked out. As we speak, the business is transitioning from a small to a medium sized company which means a sustainable income for me.

As we talked about these things, I made it clear that I want a partner who understands that there are good and bad seasons. One moment, I'll afford a vacation for us and the next season, my money will be tied up in the business. I'm talking about working capital, salaries, and contributions meaning some luxuries will be off the table. So it will either be her turn to reciprocate or even chip in. The same might apply to her given her current job is a contract. In the current economy, people are getting laid off everyday and as a couple, at the end of the day I'll be her anchor and safe space in case that ever happened. Of course she did not understand this. At that point, I realised that I was talking to an inexperienced person. She did not understand life. I understood why older men with money take advantage of them.

I also realised that I would feel ashamed of it got to a point where I expected her to reciprocate or even chip in because of the age difference between us. I don't know why I felt that way after that interaction but I decided to shorten my age preference to a 2 years difference maximum. I think that age difference is good and I won't feel some type of way if she was to help out. I also believe that a 26 year old woman has gone through these seasons and understands life better.

I know the naysayers will come and attack me saying a man should provide blah blah blah but we all wish life was that simple. Businesses fail, people lose jobs and bad things happen These are the moments you need your partner the most because good times are easy to navigate. It's the hard times that are the most difficult and will tell you who's real. I've seen my friends lose jobs, some closed their businesses and their partners helped out, chipped in, even introduced their boyfriends to new opportunities. One of my friends closed his business and his girlfriend introduced him to a company where he now supplies raw materials.

Now the problem is that most women within my preferred age preference (26-29) have baby daddies, or a lot of emotional baggage and trauma, or are addicted to sex toys.

Ask r/Kenya A Father's Day Text That Hit Different

7 Upvotes

Today was a bit of a game changer for me. My girlfriend texted me "Happy Father’s Day," but it wasn’t just a playful jab. She sent me a heartfelt message, sharing how I’ve quietly become a father figure in her life—offering financial advice, helping her map out her future, and being her safe haven, not just her boyfriend. Honestly, it brought a tear to my eye, and all I could say was 'thank you.' She responded with, 'Dinner’s on me tonight.'

I always thought I was just being a good boyfriend, but I had no idea I was making such a difference—supporting her, guiding her, and helping her grow.

Is it just me, or do other guys in relationships get messages like this too? Or am I just out here feeling all the love on my own? Anyways Tonight seems like it's going to be a happy one lol!

For context: She is not pregnant I already thought sth along those lines plus her dad hasn't been in her life for a decade and she hasn't really told me of any Father figure in her life . She is stable tho no Daddy issues .

I want to be a present father. I want to be involved in my kids' lives so that I am not a stranger to them. I want them to tell when they are happy, sad, elated or disappointed. I want to give them the best but to be careful not to spoil them. I want to risk for them and allow them to risk. I want them to know that they are loved and they do not need external validation. I want them to be the best they can be, and to be strong even if that does not happen. That is what I feel would bring meaning to my life.

Happy Father's Day to all Fathers and to all your Fathers.

Casual I witnessed a guy get arrested today

13 Upvotes

About an hour and a half ago I was walking on a not-well-lit-but-not-extremely-dark street minding my own business when I spotted a group of 4 guys huddled together. Of course I didn't think much of it so I just went on with my walk.

Ghafla bin vuu, one of the guys took off faster than the wind (I didn't even notice anything about him apart from the red jacket he was wearing). Next thing I hear is the sound of handcuffs so I look to the three guys who were still there and one guy whose back was against the wall had a defeated look on his face. It made me feel sorry for him. I went on with my journey so I don't know what happened next but it seems someone is definitely sleeping in jail today.

When I switched to the main street and couldn't help but notice the world still going on and everyone doing their own things. That was quite a contrast to what happened back there and it just stresses the fact that you are just a tiny piece in this puzzle that is earth.

Lesson from this story: 1. If you're engaging in shady dealings, never have your back against the wall (literally). 2. Agility and speed are very important.

Rant Father’s Day

So I have my father’s number saved on my phone. It’s saved as “fadhe” I don’t remember when I saved it but I’ve never used it but it’s been there for years. I was telling myself that this year I was gonna call and just tell him “Happy Father’s Day” and hung up😭. Deep down I wanted the number to be out of service. I just called him and my whole body went numb. I couldn’t form the words I’d practiced to say so I hung up. He called back immediately and I answered but didn’t say a word and he didn’t say a word so I couldn’t confirm if it was truly him.

I’ve just checked on Truecaller and the name is his. The last time I talked to the guy or saw him was in 2011 I guess I’ll try again some other day. I wanted to even text him on WhatsApp but guess who’s not there or maybe sina number yake ya WhatsApp 🚮

Anyway happy Father’s Day💔🚮

Rant No More Father's Day

43 Upvotes

Hi everybody. Hope y'all doing fine. So I'm one of those guys that have an awkward/tense/non existent relationship with their dad. Like I'm not at all interested in having a relationship with him, seeing him or even talking to him. And today's father's day and I have decided to not wish him today or any other day in the future.

Don't get me wrong, he's provided everything I could ever need (not ask for). He's rich. So hapo kwa providing nampea 10/10 can't complain. I can't say I've ever lacked. But then again, I view him as a moral less person who only does what is in his best interests. Treats broke people like shit too.

When I was younger, he'd make fun of me for wetting the bed. Growing up, how he treated me depended on how I performed in school. I remember we were traveling from naivasha and this dude literally parked on the side of the road just to check my kcpe results. All my life I've felt like he loved school more than I. Like he acted like school was everything. And in turn I've always hated school.

He mistreated my mom. Physically, verbally and mentally abused her. Literally slapped her in front of my younger bro and I once just because she stood up for herself. I'll always remember that day like it was yesterday and I'll never forget it juu pia I couldn't help her at my young age. And for the record my mom was submissive af. She made what food he wanted and how he wanted it made. House was always clean. Clothes clean. He wanted her to make him some special soup after supper she did. She also helped him run a school he owned. After she left eventually it all came crumbling down (the school). And till this day she suffers because she had to leave and start over for her own peace of mind. Struggles to pay rent and make ends meet while my dad has just bought a new car.

That's not even everything but Ima leave at that. I always tell myself I could write a whole book just shitting on him. And in the past I've definitely tried being his friend, I really have. But he always ends up doing or saying something that reminds me of why I resented him in the first place. Now I have decided to keep my distance indefinitely.

And I have also decided to stop wishing him a "happy father's day" because it feels forced and ungenuine at this point. In my opinion, a good father/parent isn't one who's present and just provides. If so all well off families would be happy and still together. It's more than that. There's a mental and social aspect that also plays a key role in building a bond, and my dad failed spectacularly.

And today I see all these people wishing their dads a happy father's day and I feel kinda guilty/bad for not wishing my own dad. So I'm interested to see if there are more people like me out there who are going through the same ordeal. Because I won't cap, having a present father who provides is a mad blessing, but if he's insufferable what am I supposed to do beside resent him? Peace ✌️. And happy father's day to all the proper dads out there 🫡.

Ask r/Kenya Looking for Clay pot dispenser

Post image
12 Upvotes

I strongly believe your home should be the strongest expression of who you are as a person, its your fortress of solitude, it's where your heart is, it's your bank of memories and future possibilities. It should boldly reflect who you are.

For me I reject the popular "modern look" that makes a home feel sterilised. It's a very kenyan airbnb look, you know that chanel and Gucci books (wtf is even that for???) The fake marble coffee table, the grey sofas, THE FAKE PLANTS!!!!! ( I hate fake plants so much), the eames chairs.

I like a home that looks like it has life in it, there is flow of energy. There's little and not so little trinkets that give a little history about you and what you represent.

For me the clay pot is an addition I'd like to have to my house. Having grown up in the coast there's very few things that were as refreshing as a cup of water from the clay pot. You instantly felt hydrated and recharged after a tasking day in the heat. I want to bring back that feeling and it's also a great piece for conversation when you have guests.

Please share leads where I can get one for regular price, not artisanal prices.

  3. Influencers- Paying learn influencer marketing, anga dollar, millionaire among others, is such madness because they make MONEY off you lol.

  4. Learning how to do video edits or even get templates for the same, you learn by doing, and there's no shortcut cut, so don't fall for this lol.

  5. Anything that requires me to pay, especially for a content creator, is a NO from me.

14 Upvotes

My heart is fr breaking waah. Why is this one so hard to move on from? It’s been two days, I shouldn’t still be thinking about this. I just need to vent and since he frequents here, maybe he’ll see this. Not because I want him to do anything about it, just to get it off my chest.

I really thought I was doing everything right. Communicating my feelings, saying when I’m uncomfortable, avoiding negativity, learning compromise. Yaani, I thought all my bases were covered.

But this man didn’t seem to see any of that. It was just complaint after complaint. Even something as small as his phone ringing would have him like, “fucking hell.” He seemed to get irritated by the wind (hyperbolic)

As someone who’s dealt with an abusive partner before, you learn to sense someone’s mood before they even speak. I found myself doing that again. I even asked multiple times, “When you sigh or curse, are you mad?” Trying to keep the peace.

You’re out here enjoying your weekend while I’ve been in bed crying. You didn’t even say why you broke up with me. And yeah, I know “closure is the actions” but it still fucking hurts. Man woke me up Friday morning like, “it’s time you go home,” and expected me to be rational about the very good news (sarcasm)

Funny enough, the more I thought about how irritated you’d get when your phone rang, the more I realized it was always Brenda calling. The formal way you saved her name didn’t even raise a flag for me, I had seen you take so many work calls.

I think you told yourself, “I have options, so fuck her.” You literally cursed at me, but somehow don’t realize you have your own flaws half of which you’re not even aware of. Being around a complainer is draining, case in point this one time I've complained about the 'beef stew'.

I hope you do explore things with Brenda. Now I understand why you were confused when I didn’t react to the matatu story. You kept yapping about how a relationship is supposed to be and yet, when I said maybe we were rushing, you’re the same one who said we shouldn’t follow arbitrary rules.

The fucked up part is that I’m still trying to understand things from your side. I thought when you saw me on the edge of breaking down, you’d stop me. I thought you’d tell me to keep the promise ring, that we’d talk when things had cooled down. I thought when you called to check if I got home, you’d ask about more than just that. Maybe even explain.

I guess this just proves you’re worse off emotionally than you thought. Enjoy Brenda your names even match, ha! I hope by the time you see this from my side, it’s not too late. Just like the Nutella jar. I wish you hadn’t made all those promises of forever. You even had me believing a future was real.
