ogugua88: ^^^ Hehehe, I love a realist. Life is easier when you lower your standards and take what life throws at you. If you like it, then fine. If not, then move on until the next best thing happens (if it chooses to happen that is).Og, I believe that humanbeings are made in their essential capacities to act and not to be acted upon. We all have choices and we can choose what we want from our lives. Manyatimes life throw punches at us but we are left to choose how we react to them. When it comes to choosing a life partner, choose the qualities you would want to see in you partner and position yourself for such a person by working on your own character, too. Pls dont lower your standards for anything. Do you know I can choose to date you? Lolz. |

this is bull cost most people after this list will always get people they did not bargain for. love is unpredictable, oblivious to your feelings. you just know you love him or her when you always think or drool about the one. come back here later and you'll be surprised he didn't make up to 20% of that list and still feel so happy. that's just my 2 cents 1 Like |

ayox2003: Og, I believe that humanbeings are made in their essential capacities to act and not to be acted upon. We all have choices and we can choose what we want from our lives. Manyatimes life throw punches at us but we are left to choose how we react to them. I don't believe in envisioning a fairy tale partner. The one quality I ask is for someone to love/respect me for who I am. And that's about it. Simple and to the point. Do you know how many women list characters for men and dump men because they don't possess 100% of the qualities they desire? Those women remain unmarried. Then, The world is not black and white, but gray. You can list qualities from here to jericho. Someone who possesses any one of those qualities is flawed just like everyone else. The question is, can you deal with those flaws? Yes, life throws punches, but I expect punches, because such is life. Those who are in lala land, awaiting Prince Nnamdi and Princess Omotola are usually blindsided. What fate has in store for you is hardly ever what one wished for. Expect the unexpected. You cannot choose to date me. You can wish to date me and I can then choose to reject you lol. |

. [size=13pt]I am currently in this searching stage[/size] I only look out for four (4) qualities from THE WOMAN before I proceed to testing if our attitudes can agree. 1. Godly: Should know the bible better than I do to teach my children and even make me a better christian to enable me make heaven. 2. Healthy: [/b]No hereditary or acquired illness (that could lead to death if not managed) I may manage consistent catarrh and even help her clean the home when suffering painful periods but not such illnesses that will keep me calling the ambulance...na!na!!na!!! 3. [b]Brilliant: I do not ask for a 1st class or even 2:1 graduate but you must be versatile enough to go to WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE and win like N1million without using any lifeline or could tell our asking kids where the pyramids are found in Africa. 4. Young: Born later than 1-1-1989 If you have or know [size=13pt]anyone with these qualities[/size] mail me on k.vs.o2012@gmail.com Let not the #4 discourage you if you perfectly match the first three Do not be shy...mail to me now after all, I am the one asking . |
Re: Your Top 5 Priorities Before Selecting A Husband/Wife by ayox2003: 1:37pm On Jun 06, 2012 |
ogugua88:True, but you cant just love someone forthwith. Honestly, I dont think ONE quality of love/respect is enough. Although you cant get all what u want in your partner, I think some qualities must be present. Og, love grows and some qualities must be present to sustain such growth. I'm not including beauty and wealth in the 'qualities' but basic characteristics of the person. Trust, honesty, industry, thoughtfulness are not toomuch qualities one must look for when choosing a life partner. I may sound archaic but the best relationships are those that started from friendship. Just like a pebble thrown into the pond, the circle enlarges itself till you finally accept the person for who he/she is. What if someone loves and respects me but she is from "Lazytown"? A lazy lover? I bet the love would not last a decade. Therefore, I still maintain that we choose want we want in a person we really wanna settle down with. By the way, if you've got what I want, and I've got what u want(love/respect) why would u reject me? Lol. Lest I forget, there is this quote I heard somewhere that I'd like to share. It says: Love is blind but marriage is will open its eye. Lol. |

Re: Your Top 5 Priorities Before Selecting A Husband/Wife by Cuddlemii: 2:52pm On Jun 06, 2012 |
mercylicious: I don't know how to analyze your point. Are barrow pushers out of the equation? lolz. Well whatever occupation a man has or is into, realistically every human being has got to be hardworking to survive or make ends meet. No food for a lazy man or woman. Even if you don't have a million naira, let your input, actions and activities show that you would make it someday. Hard work goes for both husbands and wives. Marriage itself is hard work and you need the grace of God to survive it. |
