Romance / Re: Is This An Affair? by banni: 8:40pm On May 23, 2008
At the moment it seems like friendship but fact you are worried means there is something giving you the red light signal.
I would be cautious as dating a man who has a girlfriend or worse is married can only led to problems.
Romance / Re: I'm Not Comfortable With My Baby's New Job - What Do I Do? by banni: 8:36pm On May 23, 2008
That is the fear of any spouse of a airline hostess or pilot.
But lets face it air is still safer then road espically in Nigeria.
Thing is if she really wants this job let her do it and support her.
There are far more dangerous jobs in this world.

mamaput:

no court will allow such self made tests so when you go to court you will still end up paying the required test.

It does not matter though because then you have grounds to ask for a court approved testing.
At least if you have grounds to know this is not your child then why would you fear not going to court ,certainly beats raising a child that is not yours and spending thousands to bring him/her up .

NubianQ:

Explore other options like toys and stuff,

i don't know, its a hard one but divorcing him would be hard, but personally i always test before i Drive!

so if that happens to me , hmmmmm thats the hardest question to answer.
This is one thing against marrying as a virgin.You have not tested him.Best to wait till you guys are planning the introduction then test him in bed.If all goes bad then you can explore and see if its fixable .If not then at least you can dump in time.

Family / Re: Truth About Weddings In Nigeria by banni: 12:04pm On May 23, 2008
This women want big wedding and the man to pay for it.So much for love or showing how much you care for the man.
Bad start to marriage because it shows how large the event is means more then how much they care about their "love" pocket.

Family / Re: Women Paying Dowry For their Husbands? by banni: 9:00am On May 22, 2008
It not at all common in Nigeria.
However,the payment of dowry is nothing more then symbolic.Apart from a few cultures in Nigeria and the rest of the world ,payment of dowry is at best a few items and some loose change.
There are quite a few countries in the world which charge the women.I think from the top of my head -India and lots of eastern european countries do this.
A few of them charge a hefty fee like some Nigerian tribes charge the men likewise.
However for most its symbolic.They say its their parents way of been happy that the woman lives the house and stop been a money burden on the family.
But truth be told this is all symbolic and just a way of respecting the culture and should not be seen at all in modern time as a way of buying the other person.
Funny to see some girls posting have a problem with this.
Family / Re: 40 Reasons Why You Should Marry A Nigerian Man As a Nigerian woman. by banni: 8:38am On May 22, 2008
1. He understands your accent.-[b][/b]fair enough

2. He knows that when you suffix every sentence with 'now', its not a command, e.g. "Come let's go now, "- [b][/b]good point

3. When you guys go out, he pays and doesn't expect a refund of exactly half!-[b][/b]this is down to the man .i think if we want to be equals then its fair enough if the man asks for half.stop looking at the man like a meal ticket and take your own responsibilities.

4. He understands why you have to send money home - probably doing the same himself!-[b][/b]agreed

5. He doesn't see your kid sister staying in your house as an inconvenience/ cramping his style.-[b][/b]funny enough i know many Nigerian girls who have a problem with HIS brother staying with him but not her relatives!

6. He doesn't think you should put your parents in a home.-[b][/b]agreed

7. He eats 'Gbegiri and Amala' and doesn't think it's 'yucky' or 'spicy'. In a nutshell, loves your cooking.-[b][/b]agreed ,similar cultures

9. The way he licks his ten fingers 'because that Ogbono soup with Iyan hit da spot, Oh Yes!!!-[b][/b]my god enough about food.you be eating machine!

10. He has got his education or he got something going on.-[b][/b]not real a point.There are many nations who value education as much or more then Nigerians (though we value it highly)- japan,India to name a few.Watched a documentary on India and you be amazed how people 10x poorer then some of our villagers basically near starvation make some attempt to educate their children.Thats dedication!

11. He may be a baby daddy but he loves his kid and takes care of him.-[b][/b]we take care of our kids but then again in some nations its almost taboo not to feed your child too!

15. I am IN charge but he is THE charge, we understand that.-[b][/b]ok

20. The way he gets embarrased and says "I beg e" when you compliment him.-[b][/b]haha true true

21. The way he says "I love you baby" ? may be very fake yet sounds so TRUE!-[b][/b]hope its true !maybe e no love you u never know

22. The way he eats meat with his bare hands? for some reason it is sexy to me.-[b][/b]if watching someone eat meat turns you on then all glory to you my dear.

23. The way he calls you his wife in front of all his friends.-[b][/b]love!

24. The way he says "Shey you get am" when he thinks you are not paying attention, but you really are.-[b][/b]love our slang!

You should be happy they are getting married .
Religion / Re: Evolution Or Creation: Which Do You Believe? by banni: 12:33am On May 14, 2008
Evoultion is more or less a fact.
But God guided the creation of the universe and evoultion.
God's time is not measured by any standards we know.So even 1 day might mean 1 billion years for us.We should not rush to accept the 6 days creation literally.
Romance / Re: Is Anything Wrong In Marrying Medical Doctor. by banni: 12:21am On May 14, 2008
4 Him:

Its not bad, depends however on what area he/she specialises in. If its surgery then be ready for a lifetime of boredom and loneliness.
On the flip side i think males have a better capacity to cope with female doctors as wives.


I agree on this.In Nigeria the women tend mostly to go for the less time consuming fields to focus on the family.
The men on other hand pick more time consuming fields and try to keep up with their friends cars and lifestyle thus work much more.
Remember the current pay for medical doctors in the government hospitals are like  naira 140-230k or there about ,which by Nigerian standards is very good pay.
If you work in a good private setting in say Abuja you can make 1m naira (my uncle has such a job) a month.
So he has plenty of free time as the work is very undemanding and has money too.
Romance / Re: Is Anything Wrong In Marrying Medical Doctor. by banni: 12:13am On May 14, 2008
D-reloaded:

No but I wouldnt.

Dated one for a few months, the whole madness of his job annoyed me.

The ones in residency are the worst. Only VERY VERY patient people can deal with that shit.





You are talking US residency and thats totally different.The ones in Nigeria in a program actually don't have that much hassle trust me.
US its a set period and you need to get signed off yearly so if you are lazy then you are finished.In Nigeria its totally book work which you write when you are ready unless you get kicked for been there way too long.
Thus you see many taking it easy in government hospitals.
But what make Nigerian doctors busy is the fact they tend to run around doing government work  + running a clinic on the side.
Try dating the ones in UK.They tend to be stuck in middle of program for ages due to the system there but then work less hours but the pay is still pretty good if nah money you want
NYSC / Re: NYSC Is A Waste Of Time? by banni: 12:09am On May 14, 2008
I have to agree that NYSC really is a waste of time.When i did mine i found it totally pointless .
But 2 things it did.It gave me a cooling period before actually going into the cruel world and it helped me understand that the country system does not work .
Buying the certificate is so easy which makes me wonder why all those politicans have not got it under their desk and let their opponets use it against them.

Romance / Re: Is Anything Wrong In Marrying Medical Doctor. by banni: 11:55pm On May 13, 2008
With the exception of a very few feilds most doctors are very very busy till the day they drop dead.
Even if you pick a government job unless you are bringing in loads of money to suppliment ,then the woman will have to do outside clinic to make up.
It is even worse if she goes into private practise because that means she will be forever working to keep the clinic up.
Can you deal with this?
Religion / Re: Why Do Many Insist People Convert When They Marry? by banni: 2:20pm On May 13, 2008
Busta:

I guess it all bout love and sacrifice.
u would want to do anything for that person u love including converting . . as long as it makes them happy and makes the marriage work . . I guess undecided

Agreed but then love is 2 ways.Surely it is better to try "save" your partner soul rather then just have him drag his feet to your church for show off?
Religion / Why Do Many Insist People Convert When They Marry? by banni: 1:56pm On May 13, 2008
I seen many catholic insist the man coverts to marry .
I seen same in Islam .
I seen it in pentacostal (ie become born again).
In short I seen it in many religions.
Why do people do this?Surely this is a wrong way of getting someone to understand the faith.
How will someone view that religion if they are made to convert before they marry.
Surely pushing someone to join a religion will only make the person drift further away after the wedding.
To me I think it will best to wait till after the wedding and slowly ask the person to come once in a while to the church and who knows they might like it.
But pushing someone to convert for wedding ,seems the wrong approach .

___________________________________________________________________________________

Sorry but its hard not to judge you.Clearly you are in love with money pure and simple.If you could afford to go to Dubai the first time you could afford to eat in Nigeria.
So its hard not to see you as money grabbing .And from what you seems to want in a man you have one unusual condition which is own his own buisness which seems to me to say "i want a successful man" and he should be on a young age.
Personally I don;t want to judge you  but its hard for me to consider a woman who is a self confessed prostitue and has not even indicated she wishes to stop,money hungry,has a kid .
And believe it or not majority of girls do not go around selling their body left and right.Its just what you want to believe to justify your life.I am not sure what sort of man you have right now but there is no way he will be totally comfortable with what you done espically since he is sitting down reading this with you and can see how unashamed you are of seeking prostitution as a route to money.
If he is then i dare him to marry you now !
