Is that the benefit? Must the energy be financial? (Please, note that I am innocently asking a question). What if they cannot return the energy earnestly and as at when you want it? They turn leeches and ungrateful, I assume?

If that was so, why did he make it seem as though SEX is the legal tender although he claims it is not which is a lie. Give and expect nothing in return and you people will have peace. Na this expectation wey people dey get dey make them very acrimonious should things go south be this.

I used to be there and have done that, but when I think back now, I just cringe and ask myself why I had too much expectations from a mere mortal like me? What if they were not in the best place to reciprocate my energy?

My own grouse and problem with such person will be to want to try to play on my intelligence or use me. I do not have a problem with meeting one's need as long as I can provide it, have it and such person is grateful.

It is natural to hope for reciprocity in certain relationships. However, as I mentioned earlier, the extent and nature of reciprocity depend on the nature and type of friendship.

There are instances where you give anonymously. Some days, you give by proxy. Other days you give to complete strangers, people you may never even meet again.

However, with a proper friend (or acquaintance), expectations are a bit different. E.g., a woman who wants to maintain a genuine friendship with a man should be prepared to reciprocate the efforts made by others to sustain such a friendship.

If someone you consider a friend consistently offers you money, whether you ask for it or not, it is only appropriate to lend a helping hand in some ways. This, I believe, is the essence of friendship. More often than not, men over estimate their position in a woman's life. That's why they keep giving without getting anything in return.

An example; if someone regularly gives you a ride to your workplace, it is sensible to offer to contribute to their fuel expenses on certain occasions. These are basic things some women take for granted. I believe if women begin to offer fuel in return for rides, the demand for sex may even reduce.

Personally, I make a conscious effort to avoid situations that might make me feel indebted in any way. For instance, I would prefer not to accept daily rides from someone without planning to contribute to their car's fuel costs.

On my birthday, I once politely asked my cousins not to post my photos on social media because I knew I wouldn't reciprocate such gestures.

I believe people should adopt a similar attitude. If someone chooses to do something once out of their own volition or conviction, that's perfectly fine though.

Let us ask you. What should he count as benefit?

It depends on the relationship. For strangers, a common "thank you" is more than enough.

To a friend, well no friendship should be one-sided. If someone sends me money or meet a particular need in my life, I will return the energy.

Havesomesense:
Men should start emulating women, women don’t help men at all if it is not beneficial to them,
So this year I’m not going to help any girl if it’s not beneficial to me.
I’m not counting sex as benefit, men be wise in 2024.

What do you count as benefit?

I think people are judging you unfairly. A one-sided friendship or relationship with same or opposite gender is a fraud.

If you're the one doing the giving (money, gifts, time, communication, care, etc.), you're in a fraudulent relationship, and the earlier you walk away, the better.

Even when you give to strangers, it is human nature to expect a "thank you."

God wants our appreciation and thanksgiving so who am I to not expect "something" in return?

Something can be gratitude, appreciation, zero entitlement, etc.

Importation is not the issue. The challenge is that we are not exporting enough.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

It is well.

Operation Rescue Naira: FG considers converting $30bn domiciliary deposits to naira
3rd February 2024

After temporarily "saving" the Naira with this final and desperate measure, the next crash will be extremely brutal.

eazzzy1:
It’s for crowd control. Making sure the people coming in to market are people who should be in the market. That’s the only logical explanation I can think of.

As long as it isn’t a hidden charge, they let you know from the gate and you do have a choice to pay or turn back.

This is extremely ridiculous. Crowd control in which of the markets? This tiny and unpopular market??

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Lol after you don cash out singing emilokan campaign songs.


I pity those you have deceived with your songs.

Defend yourself oo. Tilimbu is in France for his private business.

"We need his brain not his body"


Well that fraudulent brain is currently in France sealing private deals for his cousin's company and the few criminals in his circle.

By the time Baba is done planting his people in places that matter like he did in Lagos, there would be nothing left for the common man middle class. The common man is already a finished man. They are no longer in the food chain.

BigBlackPreek:
Due to the Nigerian government poor system of governance and unfavourable conditions I guess.

Thus country has gone to the dogs indeed and only God can redeem the whole system

God will do absolutely NOTHING. He gave us the same brain he gave to the residents of Canada and the U.S. It's completely on us if we fail to use our brains.

We are too divided to achieve anything. As a result, many people have sworn never to attend any rally or protest.

When last did you see Mr Macaroni or David Hundeyin tweeting aggressively against bad leadership? Even Rinu has found her way to the U.S. abi Canada. Same as DJ Switch and others. In fact, I would be surprised if they had remained in Nigeria. Can never be me when I'm not m*d.

People would rather crowdfund for kidnappers than call out/support a protest against a failed government and party.

Tinubu is currently in France sealing private deals for Oando and his cousin (according to People's Gazette) and no single outrage whatsoever!

We know exactly what we are doing as a nation.

They have released more propaganda machines.

Minimum wage argument is not only senseless but irrational and stupld! When you have a stable economy,no one will have to talk about a minimum wage. Some countries have never had reasons to talk about minimum wage in 30 years.

A stable economy is what you all should fight for. If your concern is just the minimum wage, better prepare to fight for an increase every week cos Naira will never cease to fall on a weekly basis.

In a useless economy that keeps falling on a per second basis, minimum wage should be the least of your worries. That increment you're fighting for will be worth a sachet of water in a few years.

The guy could be mentally deranged. His family needs to do something about his mental health.

The plumber or electrician doesn't care about their customer's daughters

Dey play.

They sold a lie to you all about Igbos taking over Lagos, so you can vote Tinubu.

Well, Igbos have been living in nearly every part of this country for decades without issues. They have been living peacefully even in the most remote places.

However, small and "ordinary" invasion of Fulani and bororo herdsmen, the whole country wants to scatter.

Lessons will be learnt sha.

As per the exchange rate, this is just the starting point. We haven't even seen anything yet. I will only begin to complain aggressively when it gets to #3800. #1500 is nothing tbh.

What's weird about soaking or drinking garri? Are you normal?

opamoses1:
I also live abroad and practice as a professional, it favours me as well, but I don't gloat and laugh at those in Nigeria. What's wrong with you?

If those in Nigeria won't have sense, please laugh. That laughter will, in fact, provoke them to demand what is rightfully theirs.

...and that's what they're really good at. Sponsoring more mass weddings and breeding new recruits for mass suffering like e.diots.

blacknp:
Quite obvious that you are referring to yourself? Now you come dey vex for yourself for believing a fallacy, because you deceived yourself that Aliko Dangote built Petroleum refinery for you with his money?

Typical lazy minded poor man mentality, cheaper indeed.

If he's not going to sell cheaper petrol, why then did you support a government that pumped billions of dollars into this project? To what end? Are we not better off paying subsidies to our marketers?

Rolings:
I know
But do they themselves know that?
They feel every economic policy of Tinubu is targeted at them this is the reason they have tried to shoot down every policy without giving a chance to work , even those that will be to their benefits they shoot it down all because they want to hurt Tinubu and make the country ungovernable

LMAO 🤣🤣 This one is still blaming Obidients for Tinubu's failures.

When he was sucking microphone, did you blame Obidients too?

obinnajohnson:
The two assassinated Obas are Christians.

Do you know any Muslim Oba in Ekiti or Ondo?

The amount of dust in the country right now is extremely alarming.

The fact that you pay attention to a rogue who spent the last 8 years of his life in exile shows that you're not ready.

Jobless rogues

Dangote and co (political rogues and crooks) about to become Nigeria's largest importers of refined fuel.

Only a born lunatic will believe this crude story. Why would Dangote run all the way to the U.S. to import crude for una? Do you people have sense at all??

The newspaper refinery is a fraud.The rogue is not ready to refine anything.

By the time these rogues are done with Nigeria ehnn...!
