emeraldknytt: Thanks. That's exactly what I'm doing now, cutting him some slacks but I want to make sure my emotions are not beclouding my judgments. Sometimes I feel I'm being too hard on him, other times I feel I'm making too many excuses for him. You just can't have it all. As for my boy, he'd definitely choose the one who buys him games, skate shoes and chocolates....I would too 3 Likes |

nobodii:I don't On a more serious note though, I know exactly what I want and it happens to be the younger guy. But my issue here is about his childish acts, poor decision making, always avoiding serious conversations. How do I cope with such? I don't want to change him or nag him into thinking I'm unbearable. But how long should I wait for him to grow? |

emeraldknytt: Lol no! Like I said it's nothing about money here. We've only spoken for a couple of weeks now and I've seen him just once with his family. Trust me it's nothing close to what you're thinking right now. As to why he's not married at forty. He said the doctor-lady he had wanted to marry said she wanted something more "unique" than he could offer. I don't know what that means but it's damn too funny . So since then he hasn't found someone Yes the late twenties has a trait that I'm not very okay with, and that is the only reason I've been going back and forth with him because I don't know if he's ever going to change. |

Family / Between An Immature Young Guy And An Older Man by anitank(f): 9:37pm On Nov 19, 2016 |
I don't know why this always happens to me. It's either I'm single with no one saying hi or I have to choose between two people who want me at the same time. It's never in-between. I met this guy who's just a year older than me (he's 29). He's a nice person with a really good heart but I have a little problem with the fact he's a bit immature. He's always on social media posting very irrelevant stuff, plays mind games with me, not always sure about his decisions and sees nothing wrong with breaking promises. And each time I complain, he thinks I'm overreacting. And even when he apologizes, he goes back to the same thing after a few days. But even with his flaws he has his great sides too. I was really skeptical at first dating someone within my age range because I know the maturity level always differs but I decided to give it a chance and not just assume things, afterall no one is perfect, not even myself. I really do like him but his behaviors gives me concerns. The last time we had a heated argument and I tried breaking up with him, he got really sick and hypertensive and had to take days off work to see a doctor. I had to make up with him. He specifically said he doesn't know if he'd survive if I ever left him. Now my big sister introduced me to her friend's brother who is way older than I am (he's 40). He's very mature and patient, goes straight to the point, doesn't play any games. He pretty much knows what he wants. We've only spoken a couple of weeks and talked about variety of topics concerning life, family, work, dreams and aspirations etc and trust me nothing beats having a partner you're intellectually in sync with. And although things are not defined yet, you could easily tell where this is going. The both men have absolutely nothing against me having a son (whose father died few months to our wedding four years ago). The younger guy particularly likes my boy a lot. Never goes a day without asking about him, bought him a game for his birthday and is currently asking what he wants for Christmas. The both men have also introduced me to their parents. I spoke with the younger guy's mum on the phone. The older one took me to his family home and I received a really warm welcome from them. None of us live in the same country but my job takes me around the world and I get to see them whenever I travel to the country they live. Now this has nothing to do with money or even age but everything to do with me making the right decision and having peace of mind at the end of the day. Bottom line is I like the younger guy and feel more attached to him and can tell he wants this to work out. He's always talking about having a road trip someday as a family with "our twins" and my son, but it's emotionally draining being with a "man-child" and don't know how long I can wait for him to realize that certain behaviors should be left for teenage boys. If I complain tomorrow, the usual tagline would be "did you not see all those behavior but you stayed thinking he'd change?". At a crossroad now and need a tough-love kinda advice but please don't roast me. Thanks in advance 8 Likes |

iwadobo: I don't know what you're blabbing about young man. My only problem with her statement is the fact she feels only promiscuous girls or "ashawos" as she put it can afford to buy an iPhone 7. I have an iPhone 6 Plus which I got with my own money and yes I can deduct $1000 from my account to get an iPhone 7 plus if I so wish. So how does this long epistle about those cheap disgusting girls around you and your galaxy note concern me? |

Just like scoring an offside goal in a footbal pitch, diving on finish line in racing should not be allowed. To make it a fair race, the foot which touches the last line first should be declared the winner otherwise people would start diving into finish line from 100 meters behind 2 Likes |

We all know this story is a huge lie, but in fact this can happen to anybody in real life. Kidnappers wouldn't need to call your family members anymore for randsome, all they need is your ATM card and pin. Many countries are now using ATMs with fingerprints recognition and I think Nigerian banks should adopt the same |

Romance / Re: 10 Things Ladies Check In Men Before Marrying Them by anitank(f): 1:08pm On Jul 02, 2016 |
Psoul: That is precisely my point!! Just like you every single man also look for materialistic qualities in ladies(fair skin,tall,beautiful...), that's why most end up marrying the wrong ones and eventually regret it. Some men are still lonely waiting for the "perfect" woman. So stop making it look like that behavior is only exhibited by ladies |

Business / Re: How To Stay Rich Even When You Have A Very Low Income by anitank(f): 10:38am On Jun 16, 2016 |
1) Asking people to pay for your meals would be devaluing your self worth. Have some respect for yourself! How much is lunch that you have to stoop that low just because you want to save money? And you're a working class? Even as a student way back I never begged people to pay for my food or transport, not even friends yet I was able to save. You might think you're being smart but trust me nobody wants to be in a parasitic friendship 2) Never tell people your problems. You only come off as an insecure drama queen when you constantly keep bugging people with your issues. Guess what? Everybody has got theirs, even the rich people. Asking people to help you secure a job is totally fine but that should be just about it. And clinging to your boss and discussing your problems with him just because you want a free ride is way too petty 3) Giving would be the only valid point you made but it would be contradicting your first point wouldn't it? 2 Likes |

Technically he wasn't sleeping "on the job". He would be if he was on a jumpseat in an aircraft dozing away, but he was on standby. We also have specific rooms with comfortable couches for crew who are on standby, and you can either sleep or watch tv while waiting to be called for duty. 1 Like |

I'm sorry but if I read correctly, you've dated her for 5 years and still comtemplating to marry her. It only means you're not really sure if you want to marry her or not. She's probably trying to get away from you and maybe give a chance to someone who's serious |
