Romance / Re: What Does She Mean: Is There A Chance? by bebe2007(m): 10:59am On Feb 27, 2008
@poster,

[b]Your girl maybe heartbroken. Suffering from heartache of her past relationship. She is taking her time to heal. She adores you obviously thats why she wants to hug and kiss you when you guys see, she is happy to be around you but for that pain!!!!! maybe she has not gotten over her ex completely she is probably still wishing and hoping he comes after her sooner or later. She avoids you because she does not want to hurt your feelings when that happens.

It maybe a love triangle, you are in love with her and she in turn with another. We women can be very complex, just talk to her, make her come clean and you will know where you stand ok.

I do not agree with the poster who said when love hurts its obvious it would not work or something like that. We as human beigns are not perfect, so when you fall in love with a beign expect dissapointments, heartaches etc it cannot be perfect because we are humans ok, you would cry, laugh, celebrate, mourn etc in love. Its not joyous everyday. Thats how i see it. [/b]

Hello learned friends, am a lawyer also. I work in the Legal dept of a Leasing firm. Life here is not so great , could have been better. I honestly never wanted to practice law, lost the zeal with the incessant ASSU strike. I spent 8years doing law (first degree), one year masters, Law school and another year doing youth service that finally landed me in this job. Its been a long journey !!!! i could aswell have done Medicine right!!!

The legal profession could have been better if young wigs were fairly paid, at least to encourage them. I have a friend that earns 8k in delta state. I really do not encourage my young friends to read law, all we have is the prestiege that comes with the name Barrister, no money to back it up. I know the money comes with time but really WHO HAS THE TIME? i dont, cant say when i will die so i want my money now o!!!LOL

tsmack:

I learnt Chocolate royale is still under construction which has caused a limitation to the Karaoke thingy.

As for Jazz, I'll recommend the JazzHole on Ozumba Mbadiwe. If i still remember clearly, the building is after the Zenith Bank, thats after Mobil Building if you're coming from the Palms.

Still need help about the Karaoke spots O!

Romance / Re: Is She A Lesbian? by bebe2007(m): 10:53am On Feb 08, 2008
@poster,

she might not be, but on the other hand she might be. You dont have to run away, when she makes the move tell her politely that you are not interested ok. Lesbians are not like guys who pester you forever. She will get the message and you could end up being good friends. I have had several experiences back then when i was in school, but i let them know politely that am not interested. I still keep in touch with some of them, they are normal babes like you and i. Fortunately i have not encountered Aisha's type, that was funny man! very Hot chic. grin grin

@sillyboy

U remind me of Nigerian Police with your wack analysis!!! tell your silly brain to take a chill pill o!!! grin grin how u dey? long time.

Romance / Re: Emotionally And Financially Spent by bebe2007(m): 1:13pm On Feb 07, 2008
Thats how alot of people fail exams cuz they do not bother to read questions before answering. So far so good  you guys havent read the post properly if you did you would not be asking me what my business is in their relationship. She came to me i didnt go poking into her business and if you read carefully thats if you can actually read, you would find out that i do not have a problem with the relationship, its just the fact that she feels used, her opinion not mine and am advising her based on what she has told me. Get that right and stop calling yourselves names.
Romance / Would You Marry A Guy/babe With Bad Diction by bebe2007(m): 11:16am On Feb 07, 2008
I know love is blind and all. We should look at the content not the container etc. Can you marry someone with bad diction. I mean poor spoken and written English.This has nothing to do with accent. If you can, would you tell him about this problem? How would you help him to improve on this?
Romance / Emotionally And Financially Spent by bebe2007(m): 10:49am On Feb 07, 2008
My friend is in a stupid relationship. She is dating this very goregeous guy, very clean, well mannered and dead broke. He was rich before now, business went down and he is broke. Fair enough it happens. The guy is emotionally unavailable for her, he is only nice to her when he wants sex or money (from her observations). She gets to give him money for every thing. I do not have a problem with that but the thing is he is not in love with her, the relationship is going nowhere so why invest in it. He is a moslem, who claims to be engaged to anorther babe somewhere in Kenya, in his 40's and not married. [b]She is a christian in her late 20's. [/b]Been talking to her to give it up but she doesnt know how. I think she is carried away by his looks. Please guys look into this and advice accordingly. she will read your comments. Thank you
Romance / Re: Am Sometimes Jealous Of My Boyfriends Female Friends by bebe2007(m): 10:26am On Feb 07, 2008
Honey, its only natural! we all feel that way. Do not voice out, he may start thinking you are insecure, cringe inside and let it go. Thats what i do, and am always very polite to them. They all say nice things about me, how polite i am etc but inside they do not know how far grin. grin this way i get to keep my male friends too. He respects them too. At least there is peace. Voicing out your petty jealousy may be construed wrongly. Get busy when he starts talking about them or get to know them personally if that will help.

Excuse my mistake: correction: "if i decide to buy a posh car"
Romance / Re: Are Men Still Threathened By Successful Ladies by bebe2007(m): 3:57pm On Feb 01, 2008
Men definately run away from successful women. They get threatened and bail, those of them that stay end up getting jealous of your success and consequently the relationship comes to an end.

I for one i do not care if they run or stay, i would and have been going ahead with my plans in life, if i decided to buy a posh car i would, damn the chicken!

@poster,

Sorry o! so sad. Well you have to move on, if you can forgive her please do, if not, let her down gently she must be devasted now. Why do some guys like to play with peoples feelings its so unfair. Poor girl!!! apparently she still had the hots for her ex. A real case of Love triangle.

Romance / Re: Why Do Girls Think That Bankers Are Flirts? by bebe2007(m): 10:09am On Jan 29, 2008
Am back on this Bankers issue again!!!! As for the female bankers, i have heard cases where they actually have to sleep with customers to meet up their target ie those of them in Marketing. Apart from these marketers, the others generally flirt with rich customers and somtimes date them. The females are not excluded from my lashing, infact they are worse than the guys.

I have seen the way they treat rich customers in the banking hall, they are all smiles and very friendly unlike the way they act with the poor or average customers. Well i will narrow this trait to human behaviour generally. Everyone wants to be associated with something or someone important. But they should work on that afterall they are meant to be service providers not judges, they should be professional.
Romance / Re: What Makes Him/her 'the One'? by bebe2007(m): 12:54pm On Jan 28, 2008
The one for me definately has to be an open minded and kind hearted soul. He has to be humble, God fearing, Absolutely caring and most definately very romantic. A good sense of humour is definately a plus. I have seen a glimpse of the one already, but i pray God makes it permanent Amen.

Romance / Re: I Cheated On My Girl by bebe2007(m): 2:23pm On Jan 25, 2008
According to my dear friend, we all are cheats in relationships. A babe that gives her number to another guy to call her has cheated, a boy or babe that goes on a date with another man or woman without informing her partner has also cheated. when you admire another and long for them in your heart of hearts you have cheated, when you sleep with another just like the poster its all the samething. I personally, think thats a tough call, but then again i know human beings are polygamous by nature, variety is the spice of life.

We should not take love for granted though, work on your urge or feelings, talk to your partner about your temptation, it does help to flee from it at least thats what i do. Though recently i discovered my partner has been faced with a particular temptation that he failed to discuss. My people, we have been doing open relationship(free to talk about all your inner most thoughts and desires), so why did he fail to mention this one i smell a rat o!!!! wink
Romance / Re: Advantages Of Polygamy? by bebe2007(m): 11:45am On Jan 25, 2008
yemivictor:

The women should be reasonable women, not vindictive witches. My step mums are educated, reasonable women, who by chance found themselves in their situation. I must say, we were lucky to have my Dad, who did provide adequately for all.Why he got into it, i do not know.WHO ARE WE TO JUDGE. MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE.

@ bebe2007,

With all due respect, could you please elucidate on the bold part of your above statement?
I'm curious!



[b]I do not know what you want me to elucidate on really. Will try. These women did not set out to go into polygamy. The first wife, married my Dad as a young educated woman, had her kids and before she new it, my Dad was moving from state to state because of work, she could not cope and so she decided to get settled somewhere and allow him visit when he was off work. Fair enough! i guess the distance put a strain in their relationship and then came wife number two. She, a widow who needed to move ahead of course found this nice man to take care of her and her kid, obviously fell in love and married him too. I guess in the long run she too could not cope with the move from one place to the other, she decided to settle down somewhere and then came my Mama. Young beautiful damsel, unfortunately with a failed marriage. She met my dashing, highly intelligent Dad and the rest was history. (my dad was from a polygamous family too). My step mums are kind, loving women, who in their own ways loved my Dad. As for my Mum, she is still in love with him. Nothing compares to HIM.

I guess thats how they found themselves in the same boat. I hope this cures your curiosity. Note: its my version of the story o!!! i never interviewed my Dad to know the full gist. Now that you have asked, i believe i should have!!!! well i guess i was too happy to care.[/b]

Obviously at the begining there would have been envy, strife and all amongst the women ( human nature, you cannot sleep or take ones man without meeting some form of opposition) but i guess with time, they relented when they obviously had no where to run to. I would speak for my mum here, she had a thriving business to run, she never had the time for family squabbles with the other women, they on their part had their businesses and homes to run, they were all financially independent. My Dad is no more today and each of them have carried on, nobody is left behind struggling or dying of poverty.

[b]@wesleyanA,

Good questions. My Dad visited us each time he had time off work. Most of us were in boarding schools and he used to come visit during visiting days if there was no clash or he would send someone. During the hols we all went to his for holidays, so i did get to see my siblings often. My parents loved each other to the best of my knowledge, there is no standard formular for love, people love differently as you must know by now. My parents were married under Native customary law before my siblings and i were born. My Mum happens to be the last wife out of the three. She had a failed marriage before my Dad. Very polygamous family you may say, but i really cannot complain over what i cannot change. I have half brothers and sisters and step brothers and sister. I absolutely enjoyed every bit of my childhood and i have no regrets whatsoever, if given the opportunity i would ask for the same family in my next life.

I would not say am an advocate for polygamy, but i must say polygamy is not the root of the problems we have today in Africa, i think its Man's wickedness to Man. We have sold our souls for material gains. Polygamy is not the root of the ills of our nation today but Corruption. I have seen monogamous union with enough problems to last a life time, issues that were never raised in my very polygamous family.

Afterall  if the white man never came to Africa, we would have continued with all our traditions perfectly well without knowing any ills. Polygamy still very much exist and will forever remain, it does not matter how educated we are or how rich or religious we think we are, men and women are polygamous by nature it takes the grace of God to curb it. I donot judge those practicing it for i do not know their situations, people go into it for different reasons, some in search of the fruit of the womb others money, power, security, love, happiness etc

Whichever situation you find yourself just be Happy and live the best of it. The same bible some of you are quoting also says: WHO ARE WE TO JUDGE????[/b]
Romance / Re: Advantages Of Polygamy? by bebe2007(m): 3:06pm On Jan 24, 2008
oyb:

i do not advocate polygamy, but the gut reaction, unthinking comments by so many of the posters is typical of nigerians who do not think. my grandfather, like so many of the grandparents of our generation had four wives. some times, there was money, sometimes there wasn't . my dad did not follow his path. i know that there is no enmity betweeen my dad and his siblings.


enmity/beef/ scheming does not occur because of polygamy as a system, but because of human nature. there are a lot of irresponsible monogamists out there as well, who cannot take care of ONE child.

under contemporary 'civilisation' polygamy is not acceptable.  that does not mean that 200 years from now, it will not be in fashion again. if you read just a little anthropology ,  you will be amazed at the way customs and traditions are recycled over the ages.

i wonder what  feminists would do if there was a sudden shortage of marriageable men. you'd be suprised at how fast polygamy would become acceptable, and how  all those quoting their interpretation of the bible's stance on monogamy  would suddenly remember solomon and abraham grin

Well said.

Romance / Re: Affair With A Married Man by bebe2007(m): 11:19am On Jan 23, 2008
i know you did not set out to date this married guy it just happened. From experience what i have learnt is this, the more you try to run away from something especially, feelings for someone, the more you fall for that person. Havent you heard of cases where girls say i will never date this guy or that man and they end up marrying that person. My advice to you is go with the flow, you know what you want obviously, things will fall into place. If the guy abroad is yours to keep it shall be so.

I felt very safe my dear, my Dad, God bless his soul was rich enough to give each wife a house, rides and all to make her comfortable. He had three wives and they all lived in different towns. He was working alot around the country so we the kids usually went for holidays wherever he was at the time. If you visited my home, you would never know about the other women. That was my father's style.

I have family friends from Polygamous home too and in their case they all lived under the same roof, from my observations things were ok. I personally believe that for those who have the money to take care of their wives and numerous kids, things were ok, but for the poor ones it must have been nasty. Money and understanding play alot in polygamy, without both the house will be on fire.

The women should be reasonable women, not vindictive witches. My step mums are educated, reasonable women, who by chance found themselves in their situation. I must say, we were lucky to have my Dad, who did provide adequately for all.Why he got into it, i do not know.WHO ARE WE TO JUDGE. MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE.[/b]
