Girlfriend-No. Wife-Depends on how she caught it. Like ebony said,if she caught it through a blood transfusion,staying with her would be the right thing to do. It's a sobering thought-my wife having Aids through a transfusion. But if she screwed around,i'd drop her like a hot brick. |
I don't mind the wigs and weaves. What would you have them do? Plait puff-puff/thread or weave shuku and base in the name of having natural hair? |
I guess i can understand the whole wanting to get a better bargain thing,and i really don't mind,just as long as i'm not shopping with you. |

Why can't you people shop like us? For example,when i'm shopping for food-I go to the first person selling yams. "How much is this yam?". '350',she replies. I bring out my wallet,pay and collect my yam. Move to the next stall,see some fish. Lucky for me she also sells tomatoes. 'How much is this pile of fish?' '400'. 'And the tomatoes?',i add. '100'. I pay her,carry my fish and tomatoes and move to the next stall,see some nice juicy veggies,buy em. In less than 15 mins i've shopped for dinner and maybe tommorow's lunch. If i'm shopping for clothes-'Nice shorts. Love the cut. Got something a size bigger?' I pay for my load and go,because that's what i came to the market for. I don't get unnecessarily sidetracked by other things. |
Moi-moi and garri |
Here are the things i can do in the kitchen: Boil water. Make bran flakes. Cook indomie/spaghetti. Warm soup/stew. Cook white and jollof rice. Make eba. Boil plantain. Fry plantain. Boil meat/steam fish. Fry meat/fish. Boil yam. Fry yam. Cook vegetables. Cook ekwe(garden eggs). Make pap. Fry akara. Cook ogbono. My specialty-Pounded yam and egusi. Cook vegetable soup. |
Hehehehe. . . Women! |
@prince,exactly! And some of them are nnt decisive. When they see something they like they'll tell the person selling that they're coming,walk round the entire market and end up going back to the same place to buy the thing. |
Co-operate men? Lol. . . |
@factbox,we have lean and shallow minds,we're unexposed,okay. Just get the Bleep outta my thread. |
@rose,both of who? |
Lol@dapy. |
Ouch! That's gotta hurt. I've never actually experienced anything like that sha. What about a woman who screams her ex's name in the throes of ecstasy? I so would'nt wanna hear that. |
Yes phil,you can find all those things in one woman. And i don't think my post was too critical. |
@ebony,you hate shopping? That's a first. All the women i know like shopping-just in varying degrees. |
Her boobs. |
Her smile. Her wit. The way she doesn't take my crap. The way she makes me feel. Words cannot begin to express how much i love her. . . Sometimes it's surreal. |
Ok,how about what's not wrong with the highlighted part? First of all,the bags. It doesn't make sense to carry such big bags. Are they travelling bags? What on earth do you people keep there? Then why do you spend so long in the bathroom? Are you having a baby? When i was younger we had only one functional bathroom and the rule was that i had to wait for all my sisters to finish before i could enter,and boy did i wait. Then the shopping,haba,if you like something why don't you just buy the bloody thing and move on? Must you spend all day walking round the market? |
@thonia,i can't see the highlighted part. It's the entire quote i'm seeing so please single out the highlihted points. |
Lol@yorke. Distraction! |
Nah she isn't. This post is about some women. My wife doesn't fall into their category. |
I know na. Flaws and all,you've gotta love women. |
I figured since we had a thread about what ladies hate about us,we should have one about what they do that we hate. I'll go first: some of them sleep around. They carry bags big enough to hide a baby inside. They spend hours in the bathroom. They spend forever making up. They spend forever and a day shopping. They waste too much time getting ready/dressing up. Some of them don't know the difference btw sexy and slutty,and that gets them into all kinds of problems. They are amebos. They are desperate nd gullible-they let us get away with so much crap. They are lazy thieves-rather than thinking of how to work and make money to take care of themselves they go around looking for a man to spend money on them. Some of them have whored for one man or the other at different times in their life. Note:Before anyone gets worked up and accuses me of generalisation,please know that by 'they',i meant 'some women'. |
Is he still an active witness? |
Can we talk about what we hate about women? |
I still get a kick out of introducing her as my wife or hearing ger say;'i'm mrs. . . |
'I'm actually gonna marry her. This is it. My last day as a free man'. Then half an hour later-'Where the hell is she?(she was fashionably late)'. And when she walked down the aisle i couldn't form any coherent thought. Then later-'I'm hungry'. And i went home with a huge grin on my face,and my wife in my arms. |
Chineke! 99% ke? For the love of God,stop generalising! It isn't even an understandable generalisation. If you had said 60% of married men cheat at one point in time or the other,we'd have said ok,maybe there's some truth in that,but 99%? And with their sisters-in-law? God forbid bad thing. |
Ok,next question,how much info is too much? I want my kid to be informed but i don't want him/her to be a walking encyclopedia on the subject at 8. |
@semid,i tire oh. It's almost like i've lost my connection with the story. I have a general idea of where it should go but when i try to write it's like it's not me. It's okay,i guess,but it's just not me. I haven't been able to get as worked up about the story as i was when i was writing the scene after the reunion party. Everything just seems kinda off. This whole writer's block thing is frustrating. @Musty,thanks. |
