I know this blog and I have it bookmarked on my PC (among several other blogs).

To the people complaining about the length, it is easier to read if you read from the site. But i guess when it is copied and pasted, it does look boring

@ Pendo, why you got to use an example of a borderline deranged loser, LOL. I mean seriously, who in their right mind spends that amount. Not even Miss Venezuela will get that out of a reasonable fellow!

Dont use all brains and sweet words / dont use all money, the former makes u look like a smart a$s and the latter makes u look GAMEless. The clever application of both will enable you go far.

Mekaboy vs MrBrownJay. Battle of two extremists.
@ Mekaboy, soji guy BUT let's just remember there are still babes out there that dont really care if you comfortable and are ready to chill and be with you just because they enjoy your company, style and future plans.

@ MBJ, I agree with keeping it it real BUT
tell her to have dinner at HER home and that you guys will go "hang out" afterwards!
as she is looking through the menu, tell her that you can only afford a soft drink!
Oga mi, these "jokes" are sounding crueler by the minute and I am hoping to God you dont truly say this! I mean, there must surely be PUNK'D cameras around!! LOL!

You are in a real tight spot - especially as you have known him for dat long - 20 years is no joke. U guys need to talk one on one!

Tell him you going to go broke at this rate! If he still doesnt care, then it's time to re-arrange his stuff neatly---outside the flat.

TravelRe: Why Do Nigerians Abroad Dont Help Themselves? by Basildon1(m): 10:53am On Nov 25, 2011
This has to be one of the most popular topics on NL! LOL.

The truth is that Uk is not Nigeria, things work differently (unlike Nigeria where you pay rent for 2 years in one go) It shocks people new to the system that they suddenly have to adapt. If you cant afford your place, then be useful in any house that accomodates u.

The family friend i first stayed with used to complain that i over-ironed my shirts and it would affect her bill (it was that bad). I had to mop the whole house before going to work every morning (OR she picks up the fone and complain to everyone back home!). I got used to eating rice and stew without beef to avoid hearing how the price of beef keeps rising.

But i did what i had to do till i could afford my own place cos i APPRECIATED the favour and I still do!!

pendo89:
lol @ God like advise grin

But chill cz that wasnt directed at 'you basildon' but any guy who believes without money they stand no luck. Look at the other side is all am saying but you know what? I learnt its impossible in nigeria.It works for you cz your in UK. That is the pic mekaboy is painting. I accept it.
Okay a forum is where you just voice but dont expect everybody to agree with you. Truth is I know a number of guys can score on this but for argument sake they will just talk. Including mekaboy. grin
You know I had a few threads from the romance section in mind while typing that BB issue so dont get mad, Ignore.
LOL, I am definitely not mad at you. never that. It is obvious I had appreciate your approach of assessing a man for what he is truly is.

I think I know the thread you talking about #sad.
MRbrownJAY:
@Basildon
ok yeah i can be judgmental someday but the fact remains that this issue can only be wrong for US (men).

i often go to classy places (just like Mc Ds ) with dates, not because i want to impress but because I LIKE TO EAT IN SUCH PLACES, and therefore i wouldnt mind if someone tags along (remember i never said that eating in a great place was wrong). now, if that same damsel is hungry and i am not, i sure WONT pay for dinner, and if i was crazy enough to do so, i sure wouldnt take her to such classy places. do you understand my point? i can only put my hand in my pocket WHEN I WANT TO, not because it is a requirement in the union.
i get your point and it does appear you wont suffer fools gladly. LOL. I may bend a bit but that girl is definitely not for keeps.
IF A WOMEN CANT LOVE YOU AS A POOR MAN, THEN SHE HAS NO BUSINESS BEING IN YOUR LIFE WHEN YOU FINALLY BECOME RICH!!!!!
WORD!!
RomanceRe: Can You Woe/Impress Her Without Spending by Basildon1(m): 1:23pm On Nov 24, 2011
Ms Pendo89, u beginning to real sound funny - DEFEATIST? ME? cheesy . I have a gf and she definitely doesnt fall into the gold- digger category. So please hold up with your God-like advice! Everyone wants to date and have fun while they hope to meet the right one. There's more fun to be had when there is money - OVERDOING it becomes stupidity, it can be balanced and simultaneous esp in Nigeria. I live in the UK and it is way different!

Did you ever see me label anyone on here - call them gold diggers or throw stones? I am a realist and dont believe in condemning anyone that doesnt fall into my line of thinking. This is a forum, deal with it and stop thinking that anyone that posts on here and doesnt fall into your line of thinking has no sense. Who made the guys you have mentioned the SI unit for measuring men.  undecided

This is no form of slave trade where you show money and you get all the girls. Heck, it doesnt even guarantee nothing! If you want to go ahead and put words in my mouth and say I AM ADVOCATING MONEY FOR GIRLS, you welcome, my dear Mother Theresa.

MRbrownJAY:
bro, this is an interesting issue, especially when we realize that many guys are ready and willing to part with their cash to impress women that, they know, probably dont give a damn about them.

although i dont judge them, we have to call a spade A SPADE. these women are doing EXACTLY what call girls are doing so why is it a problem if i give an explanation that shows that they are? we are still having a debate, right?!
Bro, no be today i sign up for NL nah. I know your style, u could be judgmental, not saying it is a bad thing o but why the self denial. On a casual date basis,  have you never had to impress a gal with some posh restaurant while  trying to get it?! Maybe yes, maybe no and maybe it was not even necessary  but this stuff happens. I LOVE McDee's  doesnt mean I am taking a gal there till we on dat level. Even if you dont spend it, you will ooze it to a level. Girls are creatures of comfort!
RomanceRe: Can You Woe/Impress Her Without Spending by Basildon1(m): 11:19am On Nov 24, 2011
And as usual,  @MrBrownJay had to get all analytical and ish on this one! Mekaboy is in no way supporting them lot, he is just seeing both sides of the coin with a generous dose of humor!

I had friends back in uni who only dated guys that could handle their bills and they were some of my best friends, THERE IS NO NEED TO TAKE THE JUDGEMENTAL STAND that they are similar to call girls (except maybe u seeing more than one, that kinda gets iffy!)

Blue pill or red pill, like Neo, the choice is up to you when it comes to babes in Nigeria. (tis why we spend time trying to get who suits our tastes)

Calm down! U just dey fall my hand!

@ Pendo89, Just before i go home, i wish i could sponsor you on a 3month undercover stay in an environment with a lot of nigerian females like a university.

First hand experience beats theoretical knowledge anyday! smiley
RomanceRe: Help - Shes Killing Me by Basildon1(m): 5:52pm On Nov 23, 2011
Bro DOWNCASTED, uou will be suprised how many people have travelled this exact path as you. In the future, you will be thanking God that this happened. The hitting part is def not cool but the truth is that a good girl should just break it off and not use that as an excuse for cheating.

Right now, i know you still wish she reasoned with you after all your efforts but TRUST ME, work on yourself and the day you meet a good girl with no stress that you can trust, you will realise that you wanted to settle for bronze when there is GOLD out there.
