FamilyRe: My Wedding Was Stopped 6 Weeks To The D-Day by bigl: 7:51pm On Oct 06, 2022
Gabless:
I am 28 years old, a graduate of one of the university in South West. I work as a contract staff in a bank
I met this guy about a year ago through my best female friend, and the journey started. I took him to my parents and he also took me to his parents too, and the wedding preparation started. We were suppose to do family introduction but my parents says there is no need considering some logistic reasons. Although my mum has her reservation conserving him. But since my father has no objection I think am good to go.
He has sent money for some preparation since he is not residing in Lagos. The problem started after I went to idumota with my aunt to buy our engagement clothes. It was my aunt that drove me to the market. When we returned, my fiance called me, we talked for some times, but he couldn't appreciate my aunt for her kind gesture. Although my aunt didn't say anything that day but she wasn't happy. My dad also complained that.he has been rude to him. The same goes with my mum.
The last straw that broke the Carmels back was when he was arguing with my aunt over the phone. He did not know I was in my aunt's house that particular day. I wasn't happy at all, thinking that if he would not regard my parents how would he treat me after marriage, so I confronted him the second day over the phone, telling him that I'm not happy about the way my parents where complaining about him, and that attitude of him is creating fear in me. Instead for him to be a little remoseful and even call those people and apologize, he was arguing with me, still in my aunt's house. So I told him, maybe we should put the preparation on hold thinking he would at least try and apologize to them. He just said, is that what you want and ended the call.
Everyone was surprised. He didn't call back it was his mum that called my mum, she didn't even persuade them to stop me from taking such step, and the guy too didn't call me for like too weeks until when I called him and he said he wasn't interested in the marriage again.
Actually,I wasn't happy and I have been downcasted since then, but on the other hand, May l ask this question does this guy really loves me?. Is he really mature enough for marriage. Is it all my fault? Please don't insult or abuse me. I just want to know if it's all my fault.
Madam, pls put love aside.

Your guy has ego and behavioural problem.

And that's a super red flag.

I'll advise, if u still want to go ahead, to pls resolve this your fear about the future with him.... speak your mind and lay all cards on the table and reshuffle it ... if na so e wan dey do hin own things, omo, its a no go area.... i'm a father and husband but i won't advise anyone to marry such a kind of guy who don't know how to lower his shoulders/ego and say sorry/apologize or be appreciative

Oga, a regular school and a military school which is more secured?
Come to think of it. if bandits or terrorists or whatever name you call it can attack an army base armed to the teeth with experienced soldiers who are adults, what makes u think a military school is secure?

Anything military is a target incase u don't know ...

EducationRe: Should My Daughter Still Go To Airforce School by bigl: 8:11pm On Oct 01, 2022
Jesusviper:
My daughter sat for this year Nigeria Airforce secondary school examination and when the first list came out, her name was not there so she was so sad about it but I told her to forget about it.

Just two weeks ago, I enrolled her in a school where I spent 250k for tuition fee,books and uniform.

Just this morning, someone called me that her name just came out in the supplementary list. Honestly I really want her to attend the school but at the same time I am considering how much I have spent in his new school and definitely I will still spend more even if her go to the airforce

Please is it worth all the money and stress. I can overlook everything I have spent in the new school if I am assured airforce will give my child quality education
Airforce school? At this time when insecurity is at its peak?

Please think twice. That girl's life is more precious than something to gamble with.

Send her to a regular school. Period!

I'm a parent too.

EventsRe: Can A Wedding In Nigeria Cost Less Than 700k? by bigl: 8:04pm On Sep 29, 2022
obembet:
I read about how Nairalanders Joetttimua1811manage just #500k for his wedding in 2020 which I really appreciate how he manage himself without own anybody.

Believe me, When it comes to celebrating the union of a man and woman, trust Nigerians not to hold back on providing the best food and drinks, renting a spacious hall, and indirectly telling a friend to say to another friend about the event.

While Nigerian weddings are mostly seen as an opportunity to celebrate with the couple and get free food, the truth is that they are financially demanding. It is in the sense that planning a wedding is not cheap.

With the economic setbacks being experienced in the country, we need to secure our financial future. So, in case you are hoping to one day stand at an altar wearing a suit or bridal gown, here is an insight on how to plan a wedding with a budget of 700,000 or even less.

So With a hypothetical guest list of 100 to 150 people including ( mogbo, moya ) kindly drop your breakdown budget of #700k include weeding attire and shoes for bride and groom, stationary and souvenirs, reception venues and decorations, food and drinks and miscellaneous.

Nairalanders, kindly help somebody with good calculations.

Source: obembet
Stop giving yourselves headache.

The important thing is the solemnisation (joining) ... every other thing na feferity ....

Carry yourself to Registry and do reception later .... close the chapter, begin slaughter your cow.

Trust me u will save money.

Nobody will be able to tell if you're putting on 500k suit or 50k suit by 4pm of that day ...

And no matter how many or big the cow u slaughter, there will always be some people that would claim not to eat so why stress yourself?

Meanwhile, a lot of homes have broken down due to suffering after getting married as a result of borrowing here and there to satisfy other people's expectation. So, don't go that route ...

U have no one to impress ...

But you're free to borrow 5 million from bank to do your wedding ... your brain go reset when u start paying back heavily afterwards

Go registry jeje ... with as little as 70 to 150k, you're ok.

An extra 150k should provide food for some small no of people (less than 100) ... The rest, use to take care of your newly formed family

RomanceRe: Should I Take Her Back Or Not, I'm Very Confused At The Moment People by bigl: 3:56pm On Sep 05, 2022
INTELLECTACADEM:
Good evening, sir. My name is Seun (pseudonym), a student of medicine and surgery in one of Nigerian federal universities. At the moment, I'm very confused about what to do... There is a lady I met back then in late 2017. She was very young & innocent (a virgin) likewise myself....She was 17 & I was 20.
She came from another state for ijmb in my state. We started dating, and along the line I got to know her better... I deflowered her... and she was everything to me throughout the course of the relationship. Let me add this, I'm from a struggling single Mum. I was the one that advised her against the ijmb programme she was enrolling for considering her level academically....her Mum is an irresponsible young woman in her 40s (I have to use this description for you to get a clear picture) she's staying alone having given birth to 5 children with three different fathers and still more are.. My gf in question is the first born. In the beginning of the relationship, she told me everything about her family specifically her Mum and how she wouldn't want to be like her. She (my gf) has been the one taking key decisions in her life. Again, she was everything to me throughout the course of the relationship.. In fact, she was among the key people.. No, she was the key person that supported my dream and made my being in the journey (medical school) a reality as I was studying a course already before I started combining both school stuff + JAMB prep. Mind you, she was progressing academically as well, even though she was yet to get her dream course 'nursing'. Fast forward 2022, strike was announced and I had to come down to Lagos to stay with an uncle through whom I got a teaching job as I don't ever like being idle and more so, money would be accumulated as well and the strike will not be a waste. Note, the job came with an accommodation. Immediately I noticed how comfortable the job is,I invited her over since the school needed a female staff member. The first day she assumed the job, there's this male staff member she noticed.. And immediately we saw after work that day, she asked who he was,what he teaches..& I cannot forget her telling me the guy has 'pointed noise & all one's kids would have pointed noses if one should give birth for him' (that was when Satan started taking over..) Despite her description I didn't get the exact picture of the staff member she was talking about because being there for about two weeks ahead of her,I didn't even notice this...the 2nd day, I confirmed this and told her the name of the guy. Please note,she had been 100% faithful throughout the course of the relationship. Now, the fear of her taking after her Mum (promiscuity) started rising again, because that has always been my fear and that of my Mum since she knew her (just as a friend to me). With this fear and doubts that are now re-awokened in me, I decided to drop her for a lady I felt we'd be good together (also a staff member)...she cried,begged, called her mum to beg...even told her grandma that I had never met to beg when I broke up. It got to a point, she called my Mum that didn't know we were in a relationship. At some points,she became violent... She would enter my room (my accommodation), take & destroy my things,go to the new lady, tell her to do away with me...mind you, at the first instance, she went to the lady, told her how we've been together for over 4 years, and asked her to beg me for her. Within a week or two, the other guy (pointed nose) came into the picture, he asked her out... And not up to a month the heartbreak occurred, they had sex & they've been doing since (she tells me everything that happens each time) NOW,the issue is, she knows this guy in question is a play boy and he's up to nothing than to Bleep her for the time being and drop her. I am also afraid of taking her back as she has now had sex with someone else coupled with the fact that she became violent when the issue was still hot and she displayed all what I never knew her with (breaking my sim cards, spoiling my phone) she was violent! Now, I'm scared, I don't want the guy to ruin her life and at the same time I'm having this guilty conscience each time I remember how helpful she was when I needed her...her hard-earned 2k sometimes came at the right time when I needed it....she would rather give me money than her Mum believing I would be there for her when everything is fine. But, she showed some unprecedented violent acts when the issue was fresh and she has had sex with someone else... What do I do,nairalanders.huh Please note, I've not had anything sexual with the new lady.. The relationship has been platonic.
Stop being emotionally stewpid bro ... Free the girl ... Let her go or she will eventually ruin your life and career ...

Anything that has to do with a violent lady, I keep 500miles away. Imagine if she go break your office laptop worth millions and you're a creative person?

Hello My Number 1 online forum, rather family. Hope you guys are doing great well as for me,I am kinda stranded because I am planning of quiting this my 18k-teaching job and pursue two things together.

Guys we all know how the situation of this country is, I have finally decided to buy my first online course at udemy, not fully for the purpose of their course rather their reputation and certificate will help me as an upcoming Web developer and Graphics Designer. And at the same time I'm going to start learning Laptop repairs at ikeja. Since my boss agreed to leave me by 5 pm, I thought (still a thought) I will be able to merge both together. The course is 65 hours, that's 2days and some hours, of course I can't finish it... I will be learning it Gradually.

Please what do you guys think, I really need to upgrade this year. As for feeding, I still leave with my parents and they sponsor my feeding, moreover I gave my mum 10k for this laptop learning and 10k for feeding, she should know how she will managed it for 3months of learning it.
Sounds like a good plan.

While learning, i'll advice u still hold on to something to give you constant income for some couple of months cos even after learning, jobs won't just come flying in just like that.

If you can get the udemy course via backdoor, please do and save the money for something else.

Learn as many things as possible cos one source of income can be risky in Nigeria of today bayi.

Did you say you're a pianist? How good are you? If you're fairly good, then team up with some producers so you could do assistant producer or standby pianist for their sessions so you could make some money as well.

Its really not easy in this country. May God help us all!

Don't get me wrong but I just want to create awareness for those that are already lamenting about dollar rising to 700 Naira.

It's a thing of joy for those who are paid in dollars this moment and it is also a thing of sorrow for those who earn in Naira.

Just like me I earn in upwork and get paid in dollars so if I am to withdraw my $1050 now I will be getting up to 700,000 Naira in a month as a Copywriter on Upwork.

So please join me and celebrate. If you also want to know how to do it, I could help some few persons.
That is if you withdraw in dollars ... Cos if upwork send am to your naira akant, that $1050 won't be more than 420k naira
