Another drain pipe. Simple things they have not been able to do, now they are establishing a company to do the simple things.

Good evening, Romancelanders. It's quite a lengthy read, so bear with me.

This lady and I have been dating for the past 4 years, and I am planning on making it official later this year, though Covid-19 made my finances quite complicated recently, but things are getting back in shape.

Recently, specifically over 2 weeks ago, she suddenly stopped picking my calls. Prior to that, we haven't seen each other since September last year. She always comes up with one excuses or the other every weekend whenever I tell her to come over to my place or if I want to go over to her place to see her. I always have busy schedules during the midweek, so we usually have only weekends to see each other.

I have gone to see her mother and her siblings last year. They accepted me as a prospective in-law. The mum said she queried her daughter and she told her that I was the one she would like to spend the rest of her life with, hence the mum's invitation. Her mum usually calls me from time to time, and I do talk to her, too.

Couple of days back, I had to call the mum to report her daughter to her regarding the uncharacteristic change in her daughter's behaviour, and how, despite living in the same city, we haven't seen each other in 4 months, and how she has refused picking my calls in more than 2 weeks.

She promised to talk to her and ask her what the problem was and get back to me. I waited for some couple of days, but when I didn't see the mum's call, I had to call her back. I had to ask her to give her daughter her phone so I could talk to her and ask her some salient questions regarding our relationship. She kept saying there is no problem and that I didn't offend her, and our relationship is still standing strong. I asked if she was going through some personal issues that she could share with me and we might find a solution; she said she was perfectly okay. We settled our issues right there and then, and she promised to call back the second day.

I waited for the second day and I did not see her call. I had no choice than to call her back. Ladies and gentlemen, this girl didn't pick my calls. When she eventually picked after multiple missed calls, she was talking to someone else, while my airtime was burning out. I became enraged. I had to call the mum the second day to tell her I was no longer interested in the daughter, that she was probably seeing someone else, and she didn't have the guts to tell me.

The mum swore that her daughter is not seeing someone else, as far as she knows, and that she hasn't brought anyone to meet her. The mum is a Deeper Lifer, and from my interactions with her, she doesn't condone two-timing. She promised to talk to her daughter, that maybe we should give ourselves more time, like taking a break for a couple of months.

I am not usually this patient, and never condoned negligence and disregard in my previous relationships. However, this girl had been special to me, prior to her negligence. She was quite dedicated to me during the course of our 4-year-old relationship. She was never demanding, and was contented and altruistic, too. She helped me many times in the past, financially, whenever I was broke, and I always repaid her back, too. She was a wife material, and loved by my family as well.

The questions are;

1. Do I disregard the mum's advice?

2. Do I still give this girl another chance after her blatant negligence?

Mods, you might do well by moving this piece to the front page.

Where u there when she said it?

Light cannot walk with darkness neither can darkness dwell where light is. Tell that young man to go date a girl who doesn't go to church like him.

Kelblaq:
We started dating about 4weeks ago! She said if she had known that I'm not a Church goer she wouldn't have accept to date me in the first place.

She just broke up with me now

It was not a church but a Christian she said. Can two work together, unless they agree.
She's right to have dumped you.

In conclusion, only God has the final say irrespective of doctor's report or what the high and mighty thinks about their political correctness.

Nature itself teaches you that being gay is wrong irrespective of whoever is into it. The devil has really blinded the mind of many and instead of seeking deliverance they try to seek approval.

How much does these Fulani herdsmen contribute to the treasury that is given them the impetus to terrorise Nigerians. Just imagine they were the ones with oil.

Kaduna1stson, see the handiwork of your brothers.

chinedumc91:
My dear people in this great forum. I seriously need your advice.

I'm dating a deeper life lady, we have seen each other up to six times but four of our meetings were at eateries while the remaining two we met was her own house and I always go with gifts like shoes, sandals, slipper, clothes etc.

The issue now is that, I wanted her to at least know my place since we are both living in the same city. But she said no, that her parents wouldn't approve it even though, I told her to come along with her two sisters if possible. She insisted no is against her church.

In this last Xmas, she asked me to buy her Ankara materials, which I did but she was expecting me to either take her out and use the opportunity to bring the gifts I bought for her. But I used covid19 as an excuse. As I'm writing this now those gifts are still in my house.

Now, she urgently needs 50k to register her carry over courses and her parents said no money and she is crying everyday because Tuesday next week is the deadline.

She is begging me to either give her or borrow her the money. But I told her that there's limit of what I can do for her now since we have not yet married. In fact I told her it is against my church to be spending on her when we are yet to marry.

Note, we are getting married this year even though we have not started our church courtship.

What do you advice me to do.

You have done well. Good you told her your church doesn't permit you to since you aren't married to her yet.
She can't come to your house even with her siblings? Christianity is not foolishness. How can she marry a man she doesn't know where he lives? Hope she's a virgin with the attitude she's putting up?

Why wasting time in obtaining confirmation from Senate when they are rubber stamp?

Or would Senate reject any of the appointees....??

I tire for the man called Buhari. Just call your rubber-stamp Senators and tell them to confirm the appointment of the Service Chiefs. Simple!

What really prompted the drafting of soldiers to Orlu? If the place is peaceful even with the presence of ESN, then, the Nigeria soldier should not bother themselves with the Igbos. If ESN is driving out killer herdsmen, then let them do as they please.
If there's breakdown of law and order, I will understand the drafting of soldiers.
What am I even saying sef. The govt. is confused how much more the citizens.

People of his caliber should be President.

That your friend na confirm street.
He sense danger japa immediately. That's street man.
You're lucky. Let me lay down a few rules that might help other otus like you

Never walk at night. If you must walk at night be on guard. If the street is lonely jog if you can. If you see someone at one side approaching you cross to the other side. If he cross follow you na thief. Japa. As in efele. If na small lane hold big stone and make it obvious say you hold big stone. He go change him mind. Hehehe. He fit even greet you good evening sef. Trust me if works. Also never chase after a thief if them pass two. Make them no go mend you.

In all let's be safe. God no go shame us

My experience at the dreaded ekosodin in Benin one night I alighted from the cab. Everywhere was dark and I saw this two guys looking dangerous walking towards me. I sensed their menacing eyes and I quickly put my hand underneath my shirt like I wanted to bring out a pistol.... They hailed me bros bros and went their way...I went my way too...

You're being human bro. But thank God your wife stopped you from embarrassing her guest. Now, both of you can sit her down at night and counsel her like a couple.

Cheers and have a good Yuletide

Tash, which guest. The neice has no regard and no fear. Boyfriend came and straight to the room. No room for such nonsense in my house. No such kind of casual relationship goes beyond my dinning table.

HopeSpencer:
For 30 years, I practised undiluted Christianity. Don't come here with the story of 'maybe you were not saved' blabla. My life was in shambles.

I ported to black magic after visiting my powerful village kinsmen. To eat was hard before consultation with the dark powers. Then my situation improved for 2 years. During those two years, I stepped up consultation with the dark powers in a bid to stay afloat. Still, I came crashing after those 2 years.

I consulted the oracle again and was told to do sacrifices. I did them but no changes. I looked around for famous spiritualists and consulted them. No changes.

I recently met another powerful herbalist, say herbalist A. He told me what the problem is and the solution. I didn't pay for the solution but I looked for another powerful herbalist B somewhere else who told me same thing herbalist A told me. I then went back to herbalist A and paid for the solution. Herbalist A said I was to bear 3 sacrifices. He told me cost of all the 3 sacrifices and I paid it. On the day of bearing the sacrifices, he prepared only 2 sacrifices, and I didn't question him about the third. Herbalist A later reminded me 2 months later that one sacrifice is pending and he gave me a new cost. I didn't argue with him that I initially paid for 3 sacrifices. I haven't felt any difference and you reminded me of a 3rd sacrifice which I think I already paid for. Imagine, this herbalist A has more than 3 houses and I have none.

The problem here is that my problems look spiritual. I have skills that can't put food on my table.

Christianity must be a way of life so long you are breathing. Jesus is merciful. Retrace your steps for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.

Hi Guys ..
I need serious matured advice . I have been dating this guy for about a year now ,
When I met him he was jobless but living comfortable due to his parents wealth ,.
I'm 25 and he's 3 years older than me , my problem is that he's too spiritual , he always have bad dreams and because of this he is always going to a celestial church and this makes him bring fetish things home like candles and substances in white container ..

I go to a Pentecostal church but I still continue the relationship and also follow him to his church sometimes.. but lately he brought this black soap home which smells bad and to make matters worse he always wake up at a specific time at night .To have the bath ..

M feeling uncomfortable with him and im beginning to lose interest in him due to these because I don't believe in all this fetish things .What do u guys think ? I'm I overreacting?

You are just a sinner as he is. You are not married to him but you stay or pass the night at his place. What a world of sin we live in now.
My advice: Can two walk together (not in sin), unless they agree.

We live in a religiously inclined, biased and divided country.

Until we have more industries than churches and mosques, we'll remain where we are.

Until we realize that Jesus was not a Christian and that Mohammed was just a human being like us, our country will make no progress.

.
Jesus will continue to build his church so that people when saved will appear in church for fellowship. The church will continue to grow this end time and nothing you can do about it.
Accept Jesus in your life and be born again.
Building churches doesn't stop the govt from building industries. Have you not heard or read that a church generates the power need of the church and the community of the church? Your govt should go and learn from the church.
Do Christians fight for Jesus when He is insulted? NO.

Sunmoluvic:

Your only angry for unnecessary things
slawormir never post off-topic, righteousness89 does, always preaching on every threads, something not related to the thread, the forum has a religion section, where he could preach as much as he likes, and I think that is not the first nor the second time he's been banned temporarily, nairaland doesn't ban people for long time, it starts with 24 hours, then months then years, since he didn't yield to instruction, they gave Him 10 years ban.
As for you, first, the nairaland antispam bot ban people mistakingly, it's more like an AI and it's learning, I've been banned many times by the bot for no reasons, and if it's a mod that banned you for no reason, you can reach out to them to complain instead of this

righteousness 89 can preach on any topic.
salvation is the only way out of this" under sango bridge inscription"
Jesus will continue to be preached whether on Moslem thread or politics.
Everyone space on nairaland is his social space. The only thing I will not support on anyone social space is to use it to insult others.

We have a banditry issue in North
we admit and working to resolve them.
when is Ipob going to tackle Poverty, security challenge in SE.?
when?
enough of cover up
Igbos are too fixated on bad events happening in the north.

If it were to be only insecurity, then your argument would have sufficed. Povert( almajiri ), malnutrition ( capital in Nigeria ), disease outbreaks ( just recently polio has been defeated ) and many more, all in the North. Not trying to say other regions don't have their challenges, but the North is a drain-cow of our oil money.

soulstalker:
Good morning romancelanders, this is not right section, but i need more opinions about this thread.

December 27th will complete one year in which my dad was buried, and according to friends and family, i was told we should have a remembrance party in his memory.

I am the 7th born in the family, but the closest to my dad before his demise(none of the kids have access to his properties except me).

Now the families are tasking me big, i mean a whole 500k from me alone for the remembrance party(despite the fact they know my financial state, which i was scammed a huge sum of money months ago and i also just ventured into some business, and the registration for my 2yrs old son school by january). So my question is, why are they planning so much for the remembrance? Why did they bill me that much? Or are they possibly passing a message to me because of my dad's properties? But fact is me i don't have such amount of money on me talkless of contributing that amount? Pls ur sincere advise is needed..

why haven't you asked the family to share the properties? Being closest to your late dad doesn't mean you keep the properties to yourself. You better call your elderly ones so you share the properties so as not to get such billing next time.

tobechi74:


When one truly loves a flower, he does not pluck the flower from its stem. He does not transplant it to his own backyard. The soil condition may be different.The plant may die. Rather, he goes out of his way to water the plants and apply fertilizer. He derives joy by watching its beauty. He desires to improve its beauty. He is not threatened if others admires the flower. He has no interest of purchasing the flower.

When we genuinely love a person, we do not think of how to take advantage of the person for our own benefit. We do not intend to possess the person. Rather we think of how we can improve the other person’s life without depleting ourselves. . We give our partner freedom to be Authentic.

If you truely love her ,there is nothing wrong in assisting her. But when you demand gratitude from her in terms of sex or marriage. It is no longer done out of love.

If she decides not to get married to you
After receiving assistance from you, you have no reason to get angry. This is true love.

If you get angry that she did not marry you afterwards, then you were not really helping her. You were helping yourself. You were investing in her. It is a buisness transaction. Not all Investment blossom.

Intentions for our actions is a driving force. The man loved her first, discovered she's intelligent and decided to get her educated. She saw his intention from the onset. She's educated now and can't settle down with him.
There are many who have also trained women like that and got married to them.
Things happen.

Hi Nairalanders, ur advice is seriously needed here. No insults pls.
I've been struggling with Masturbation and pornography addiction for the past 15 years.
I've tried all I could to stop but all to no avail.
I've prayed and fasted so many times with no tangible result. What happens is that;
I'll stop for like six(6) months without endulging in it. But once am down I see myself in the act again.
It has been filled with ups and downs all dis years.
Anytime I endulge in it the aftermath is filled with regrets, guilt, shame and loss of inner power.
I always fill sad and empty afterwards.
I really don't know what to do again, I seriously need help. My relationship with God is as take here.
Pls help a brother.
U advice will be appreciated.

Make a vow " Lord, take my life if I masturbate or watch pornography within the next one month"
Take it month by month and before you know it, you will be free from the demons of pornography and masturbation addiction.
