I just tire o,

So I will leave all the sexy and beautiful damsels both home and abroad dying to warm my bed, it's now my daughter, someone that I raised and watched grow up, that I will now be sexually attracted to, come on, that guy dey ment if not I don't what it is

The truth is that Nigerians are very paranoid in situations like this.
And even then sef, you can't really blame him because of the news we hear daily involving men defiling their daughters.

Lmao. Easy, tiger! grin

Hmmm. So why did you decide to adopt? You are still very young or is their something behind it you re not telling us. E g. Impotence

Well I don't really blame you, I blame the fúked up world that we live in that views every action someone takes no matter how selfless suspiciously and then again age is just a numerical figure, doesn't really mean shít, cause I have seen people in their fifties and above that behave like kids , very immature and I have seen 20 years old that behave very very mature, that if they don't tell you their age, you would think that they are very advanced in age .

So I like said earlier age is just a number and don't mean shít and there is nothing more to it other than someone that just loves children and loves being around children

Stop overthinking it

You're not mature. Your responses aren't mature. You aren't seeing a clearer picture now until you get to at least 30. This was how Michael Jackson started off till he was first made to cough out some sums and he gave himself brain. It's a cute thing to want a child but I'm not sure you're emotionally ready for the weight that comes with having one

Re: My Experience Adopting A Child In Nigeria As A Young Guy by Mindlog: 8:45am On Sep 08, 2021
I will want to believe children within the custody of registered orphanages in Nigeria are expected to have their details lodged in a family courts and when there is a request for adoption, officials from the state ministry responsible, their social workers and the family courts get involved.

The magistrate is the one who gives final order for the release of the child to the adoptive parent/parents, which is a long and windy process but in Nigeria, some orphanages are into runs.

Accross the world, there is a huge skepticism when it comes to a single male wanting to adopt a girl child as it is usually rejected, the psychologists involved in the process usually do not approve such an arrangement as the request is usually met with raised eyebrows.

It is not just an issue of having a dirty mind or not but the most important thing is how it will help the child to be exposed to less risks and adjust better in life, going forward.

Surely....I ones did with last ex....She said it's nice...But later on wondered why I will want to adopt when she can have more than two.....But later on said I want a sexy wife for life..grin

Child birth take a toll on most women..So I will prefer just few kids from a wife...Make her body no comot from how I met her.

Then adopt one or two babies.

It ain't SHALLOW angry

However, it's very possible to listen to different genres of music but it's likely to prefer one (or some) to others.

I'm more of Hip-Hop/Trap. I prefer them to any other genre, although I listen to other genres but not often. One thing I know is that the songs you listen to definitely have either positive or negative influence on you.

I just love all kinds of music.
For every mood, there’s a perfect music. So, I shouldn’t have to choose.

Hello, good day cheesy,

https://www.nairaland.com/4538476/want-adopt-child

y'all remember the thread I created back in 2018 ,well I did succeed adopting a child, I adopted her from a orphanage and I will say my experience during the process of adopting her was really difficult than I Imagined, first I was a single young guy not even in my mid twenties yet and I had tattoos and lil tjay and lil baby kind of hair styles (those familiar with them will know the kind of hair style I am talking about grin) oh mhen the stereotyping was off the roof, what did they not say, is it been called a ritualist , mhen I was suffered by the abusive words that was unleashed on me by all those women but I didn't relent and finally after everything I succeeded,

At one point , I wanted to go with my mum at least to show that I had no ulterior motive but then again I thought to myself, you can do this on your own and I am glad I overcame.

I began the process in mid 2018 and it was not until it late 2018 that my application was granted, I then proceeded with the rest formalities and I took my daughter home, she was 3 when I adopted her .

The first thing I did when we got home was to change her wardrobe, I took her shopping and bought two big boxes filled with clothes and shoes, also bought some female toys and other stuffs.

She was shy at first around me but with time ,she got used to me and became more free with me.

Mehn I must say so far adopting her was one of the best decision I have ever made in my life , I even tattooed her name on my arm, made me more responble in a way cheesy

And also in addition, chicks dig babies, like babies are like ladies' magnet. I never believe those statements to be true till I got my baby, like mehn you need to see the attention I get because of her, I mean we get because of her.

Don't get me wrong, ladies trip and drool over me before she came into my life but the amount of attention I get before her more than doubled cheesy. Before y'all start thinking this is the major reason I am happy I adopted her , let it be known that this is the least reason why I am happy..

All-in all she is God's blessings to me and I bless the day that I made the decision in adopting her.

She is such an Angel and a darling

I love her so much

Fatherhood is sweet
