Bro. I saw d part u were using hustling as an excuse for not wanting to commit, just remember that no matter how old u get and how hard u hustle, u can't still make all the money in the world. She's willing to go out of her way to make u happy and that u should hold on to. So many relationships these days end up badly cos no one is willing to sacrifice which is what love is. There are a lot of guys who would pray to be in ur position and I think u should give it time. Who knows, She might just be that missing piece in ur hustle.

Schooled ? I won't let you drag me into the mud like the pig you are

Incase you have problems understanding basic english

bye bye o

Its baffling How far u are willing to go with this moronic attitude of urs. U aren't making even d minutest of efforts to say something sensible. Dragging u into the mud would be giving credence to ur low IQ which doesn't measure that of a pig. I believe mopping the floor would yield a better result than all the years you've spent acquiring a formal education. Idiot don't mention me again!

GMBuhari:
Please take your garri and sugar in peace, i didn't confirm the location, i responded based on submission and instead of being a goat, why don't you poll your opinion ? somebody will insult you now you will start calling your brothers in power to come and ban


state your opinion, there's no need for words like myopic , idiot , village boy limited knowledge , nobody has insulted anybody so far

I just schooled u on Common sense and logic and the best u could come up with is that I should soak my garri in peace! How pathetic!. Why are u contradicting yourself, u didn't confirm the locations but u responded in the affirmative to peoples submission concerning those locations, SMH! You are just one dumb fool1sh ass!

GMBuhari:
Osun, Oyo, Taraba , Delta all cleared , remaining 24 states

Thank you

Stop being myopic. The idiot shouting here in Delta is probably in one village or town in Delta and cannot account for more than his limited knowledge. I can tell u are a zombie so I ain't surprised even one bit.

Josh44s:
Here in Delta there are no soldiers o. 3 states cleared already. My neighbors in Edo, Rivers, Bayelsa and Anambra are there any soldiers deployed there?

U are just in one secluded zone shouting here in delta, as if u know what's happening in area's where u are not resident.

Gaddafithe2nd:
Shey that one still dey sing. The last time I heard about him was when he was living at Community street at Akoka.

And what's wrong with living there?

All factors considered, yes it does

@ op, she fit wear pass one pair at a time? And to Seun and his mods, is there nothing important happening within and outside the country about Nigerians that we have to put up with this trash?

Topgainer:
Typical language of native doctors a.k.a Senior Prophet Dr. and the occult inspiration-talking Pastors/ Bishops
What is there to understand in the sale of anointed water, armlets, mantle, calenders, stickers?
What is there to understand that people are tasked on bringing specific amount of seeds and items like coconut for prayers that Jesus will answer?
Why won't conservative Christians condemn the rascality introduced by these Pentecostal Bishops and overlords which by the way is contrary to the teachings of Jesus?
Other common phrases/sentences used by the rascals
1. Change Church if your Church does not change you. Of which the change alluded to magical answers to one prayer while other challenges that is common to other people persists
2. Your size of seed is your size of testimony and expected breakthrough
3. Your open doors or delusional connection to prosperity can only be found in your commitment to Papa's Ministry invariably people are condemned to slaving away for one Papa or another as workers
4. Your development and growth in Christianity made possible through your purchase of various materials for sale by Papa example comical videos and literatures authored by Papa/Mama
5. Your tithe is the trade in a Christian can give the Church of Bishop for freedom from sickness, poverty, discomfort and delayed answers to prayers by Jesus.
And so on

Sorry, I'm a Catholic and ur above list is an aberration in my Church

jaymejate:
THIS GUY is .... i'm sorry to say, is a fool.
you guys have totally forgotten that, the pastors are human being and not has perfect as Jesus u know.
they too always look for a way to get enlightened. so you too you are finding enlightenment that's why you're there.
teachings can never be perfect.
you are to take the ones that is useful to you and throw away the ones that are not.

the ministry of people is different. some is to teach holiness, some to teach on how to give, some is prosperity e.t.c.

and moreover, they didn't force you to give or did they point gun at you to give?
if they are not giving you what you want to hear, go to another place and stop making people feel like the church is diff.

MINISTRY OF EVERYONE IS DIFF.

you judging them, check Romans 2; 1-3

The ministry of which people? Does anyone have a ministry? If it isn't about Christ, then it isn't Christianity

asuustrike2009:
Does that dispute the fact that most of your members don't bow to it? That's the issue. Bowing to those sculptures is what they Bible streess on. There's nothing wrong having imaging of people you admire but don't bow down to it.

People bow down to monarchs and those they respect, does that automatically qualify as worship?

VargasVee:
We were all created with free will, now what good is it for us to have it if the intention was not for us to use it cause we'd go to hell if we stray?


I'm confused here.

Who said u aren't to use ur freewill? And y are u so particular about hell, isn't there a heaven? The answer to the why is, that's what differentiates us from other animals and that's why we have a soul and they don't. The answer to ur second question about going astray points to the how. Worship of God is a choice one makes and since u were created in God's image, u have the privilege to freewill. Remember, everything was created good and all man had to do was not to get greedy. As much as there are factors which could lead us astray, there are also factors to keep us aright.

asuustrike2009:
They're imagines but do I bow down or worship it? No because if I do am involved in idolatry, that's the bone of contention with the Catholic faith. Don't shall not bow to any graven image or it's likeness

U are contradicting Urself, u said making an image is an abomination and u agreed that ur personal pics on ur Fone are images, which other explanation are u giving. Secondly, did moses not make a bronze serpent and placed at the middle of the camp during the snake invasion. Read up the book of Leviticus and u would see passages where moses was instructed to make some designs for the ark which included images of the seraph etc. And for posterity sake, what we have in the Catholic church are called statues which are representations of whomever they depict and honour not worship is accorded them, for worship is for God alone.

asuustrike2009:
I have being there before. Here are facts and proves that back my assertion
an Idolater is a devoted admirer of idols but what does the Bible say about images and idols?

1. Exodus 20:4-5
“Thou shalt not MAKE unto thee ANY graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not BOW DOWN thyself to them Nor SERVE them.”

Do Catholics MAKE graven images? Yes.
Do Catholics KNEEL down to statues of Mary or Jesus? Yes.
Do Catholics SERVE Mary? Yes, as in “Legion of Mary.”
Do Catholics BOW DOWN and kiss the foot of the pagan god Jupiter which was renamed St Peter? Yes.

2. Leviticus 26:1
“You shall make you NO IDOLS nor GRAVEN IMAGE. Neither rear you up a STANDING IMAGE. Neither shall ye set up any IMAGE OF STONE in your land to bow down unto it.”

Do Catholics rear up STANDING IMAGES? Yes.
Do Catholics set up any IMAGE OF STONE? Yes.

3. Deuteronomy 4:16
“Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and MAKE you a GRAVEN IMAGE, the similitude of ANY FIGURE, the likeness of MALE or FEMALE.”

Do Catholics make graven images of MALE or FEMALE? Yes. Mary is a female. Jesus and the apostles are males.

4. Deuteronomy 16:22
“Neither shalt thou SET thee UP ANY IMAGE: which the Lord thy God HATES.”

Do Catholics SET UP ANY IMAGES? Yes.
Does God HATE IMAGES? Yes.

5. 1 Thessalonians 1:9
“How ye turned to God FROM IDOLS to serve the living and true God.”

Did the early Christians turn FROM IDOLS? Yes.

6. Deuteronomy 27:15
“CURSED be the man that MAKES ANY GRAVEN or MOLTEN IMAGE, an abomination unto the Lord, the work of the hands of the craftsman, and putteth it in a secret place.”

Does God put a curse on any person that makes any image? Yes.
Why does God call an image an ABOMINATION? Because He hates

According to u, an image is an abomination, the pictures on ur phone, ur personal ones, what are they called?

Chikelue2000:
Catholics no de read Bible abeg, they just think bin d Ist church gives them right to do whatever they wana do

It would be ignorant for u to make reference to the bible and not acknowledge where Timothy said "hold steadfast to the traditions handed down to you". And the Catholic church has the originality of the Bible, the apostolic line and the traditions.

asuustrike2009:
I don't consider them Christians because they worship idol. Yahweh hates idol worship with passion

People are bound to condemn what they do not understand.

It would be ignorant not to acknowledge that each letter written to various churches were to address the issues affecting such churches. The same way he wrote to the church in Corinth so also did he write a different one to the church in Thessaloniki and to other churches and individuals. Putting it within our present day context would be an injustice if applied without reason.

FuckBuhari:
they think is the handiwork of an imaginary dude, who allowed it to happen in the first place.

Yea..... The same imaginary dude who hasn't struck u dead yet for willfully choosing to be stvpid.

Shitface:
In the Catholic Church, before a bishop dies, be it bishop of Rome or bishop of any diocese, he leaves some names of people whom he thinks can succeed him, these names can come from anywhere and from any tribe. It is left for the people of the diocese, the pope and other faithfuls to pray and select someone amongst the names presented by the late bishop.

In aharia diocese, the same procedure was carried out but not one of those presented by the late bishop was picked, instead a priest was appointed bishop from a completely different place, he has never been to our diocese, he hasn't been there even for Apostolic work.... Nothing.

This said priest was RUMORED to have been promised to be Bishop by the cardinal that was administrator of the diocese after the bishop died.

Rumor aside, Bishop chikwe was the first bishop of the diocese. it really isn't a problem of where he was from, the issue is that why was all the priest that exist in aharia boycotted completely and a priest from a visiting land come to be bishop.

To be bishop, u should have some level of communication with the people you have come to rule,they should have known you and trusted you and can look up to you as their Father and Bishop. However bringing in a stranger into the diocese not as a visiting priest but as a bishop WITHOUT NOT EVEN AN EXPLANATION ON WHY THE NORMAL PROCEDURE WAS BOYCOTTED is not fair.

Mbaise is 98% Catholic with the rest been protestants... We value our priest alot and our bishop too, we look up to them for guidance and also as mentors and role models. They are FATHERS. bringing a stranger to become the Dad of our home wasn't accepted and strongly rejected by the people,he is a square peg in a round hole.

And we are resolute about it.

You are just being stvpid. A bishop is appointed from Rome and not as a result of one dead Bishop's decision. You guys are just lucky it isn't Benedict that's still pope, by now all those priests would have been stripped of their faculty and even excommunicated for such show of madness. How can over 100 priests who studied the canon law in the seminary be so fool1sh? Its just baffling. Warri diocese was also in a similar position as ahiara in d 60's , and it was after much begging and diplomacy that it got its first indigenous bishop 50 years after d creation of the diocese. Most of those lay peeps protesting I bet u will not be alive to see an mbaise man as a bishop.

Lubyna:
One thing I have realized from reading comments on this website is that a lot of men do not understand that some women have certain financial standards when it comes to dating, and nothing can make them lower those standards. So guys, when a lady says she can't date a broke guy, try to first ruminate on the information I want to pass across before deciding to label her with derogatory appellations.

When I say some ladies, this "some" constitutes a certain category of ladies. This category includes ladies who are ambitious, hardworking and goal oriented. They are aren't idle or ignorant. They are intelligent, well informed and most times are financially bouyant. These are the kind of women I am categorically referring to. If this kind of woman says she can't date a broke guy, then she is justified in making such statement, and any guy who insults her for making such statement or tries to refute her statement with the kind of pathetic comments I read here, is indeed pathetic.

How does anyone expect a woman who is working towards being financially successful and expending time and energy towards this goal, to settle for some guy who earns WAY less than she does? How can a financially ambitious woman lower her standards and spend years waiting for some guy "who has potential" to make it? Let me unpack this last statement because it's a bit radioactive. There are different gradations of potential and that's why I used quotation marks. There are men who have an education that confers a high competitive advantage in the job market, or skills that can catapult them to high rungs on the financial ladder. If a financially ambitious woman meets this kind of guy and he is working hard everyday to become financially stable and secure, then she can lower her standards a bit and grind with him, but only for a while. If after few months or years and this guy isn't making any progress and she decides to go, no one should blame her. Maybe the guy isn't smart enough or isn't just lucky enough. She has the right to leave him and find someone who is financially compatible with her. Yes.
But this only applies to men who have real potential, not some guy who just has a degree or skills and isn't taking diligent steps to improve his finances.

What most guys don't realize is that being broke or just having enough money to subsist, are indicative of certain traits women in general aren't attracted to. Traits like laziness, unintelligence, lack of ambition, bad luck, and a lack of good education. It's not the fault of a financially ambitious woman who is financially bouyant herself if she doesn't want to mingle with broke people, let alone date them.

Instead of dating a guy that has good qualities, the kind of women I am referring to would rather find financially bouyant and ambitious men like themselves, and then proceed to look for these good qualities. And YES they are justified in doing that. Abi is it only broke guys that have good qualities?

Lastly, if any guy is asking out women who don't fall into the category of women I am referring to, then such guy has low standards and deserves the rejection he is receiving from his fellow broke girl.

After going through your write-up, I must confess that you made some very valid points but just what if the said financially buoyant guy losses all he has, would he still fit into ur category? Are u also saying ones financial status at a point in time should be the determinant for going into a relationship? All I see from ur long epistle is money this, money that. You still do not understand the basics of life, you still cannot see beyond the end of your nose. One can have all the money in this life but they cannot wear more than one cloth at a point in time if they were to own a continent of it or sleep on more than the space their body occupy even if they had the moon to themselves or breath more than the required air to survive cos they have money. I'm not tryna say it's bad to have money or make up with someone who has but it shouldn't be a priority in life but love is true and Even in death, it remains. Change the way u think cos life goes beyond the feeble way u see it.

These same people shouting brutality, child labor blablabla, are the same set of people who would tomorrow, either donate tyre or fuel for the burning ceremony if she was caught stealing even five naira. May God save us from this spirit of hypocrisy. Tomorrow if she see five naira, she go think twice before lifting cos I believe this whipping from the man is to serve as a deterrent against any future thought of doing such.

Those shouting we can see that you are so pained, make I ask, Na ur pain?or na the way una telepathy don strong reach wen una dey read people emotions through Fone. Rubbish aproko Nigerians! And for the mods, most people come to nairaland to read news about sane issues not mad people.

Like wtf! some men sef, how would he even contemplate such line of action? Was he not aware she is a matron before getting into the marriage? If she go hire killers now to put d ewu out of his misery, people go start dey blame her. And as for the bastard of a sister, how can she even contemplate talk more of sleeping with two eyes closed knowing she's about to mete out the ultimate family betrayal? Some people sha

Benita27:
Her real test result was shared here months back.

Oh! I see, but why did she affirm the allegation that she has the virus, if really she was free? Or was the chat tailored by the dude to corroborate his story?

Benita27:
Bloggers and recycling. How many times are we going to read this news?. And for the record, she wasn't HIV positive.

And how would u know?

Away win or draw under 4.5

freepop:
Update: Babe just chat me up asking if I can sponsor her to complete her undergraduate programme after which we'll get wedded.

Obviously, my answer is NO! Cos the marriage isn't set and cast in stone already.

I can't come and carry responsibility wey pass me. If her papa no fit give her basic education, must she Lord it over me?

Wetin una think o jare?

NB: Thank you for the responses so far.

See the way Ur village people want make u go score own goal

@ op, like most dudes, I'm tempted to take the high way and brandish ur gf with the normal " she be ashawoo" slogan and it is really easy most times to condemn others for what we also are guilty of for one reason or the other. As u said, u are her first and I believe u weren't d first guy to date her but she chose u. She might have gotten distracted along the way and lied about it which anybody could be guilty of but remember u armed d devil (friend) and also should take responsibility in the whole cycle of events. Most importantly, humans make up associations, brands etc and not the other way round, "UNIPORT girls" aren't promiscuous as u have chosen to paint them for the very fact that each person has a particular identity and freewill to make choices different from others.

Can you Just imagine d effrontery! This is what happens when u marry a witch. No matter the cost of carrying out a DNA test, I don't think it will cost as much as training a child who might not be ur own.
