My privacy has always been very special to me and I am famous for my lack of interviews. Please understand this policy will continue."

You DNT kw a person until u marry him/her long dating is not always necessary

Exactly, people change. Day by day we meet people and experience situations that change our perceptions of life. That good girl could become the devil sister after marriage and that wild girl everyone thinks don't know how to keep their home could make her marriage work

geostrata:
Those who are saying the timeline is too short...is ur 10years courtship marriage going to be better than theirs? it may surprise you that this short timeline will have the best of marriage. ...do you think dating a gal for long guarantee a blissful marriage? one thing I know is that they are going to enjoy their marriage!

Abi Collins no no Nina before she met miracle barely 3months dy r inseparable couple...dy fight quarrel but they learn to grow in love each day!


Happy Married Life...have a blissful and peaceful marriage

I know a lady who married a man barely 3 weeks after meeting him. Me self was waiting for the divorce , over 8 years now with two beautiful kids, their marriage is an example for others now. It's not how long you dated someone or the period of courtship, the main issue is how you handle your marriage. There's no handbook on how to make a marriage work.

ZeeBaba17:
very informative but I am not understanding how Benz plan to dominate air, land and sea when their only know product is land base? or do they produced planes and ships

Yes they do, the Tuner Brabus and Luxury yacht. They're indeed dominating the sea, land, and air. Most of these companies have another company under them that produces sea vehicles and air vehicle.

The way these guys pay attention to something as little as a logo eh. BMW and Bayern Munchen share the same origin. Innoson could use the Biafran flag into his car logo but if he does that we all know the oppressive government we have.

RuthDaniels:
You don't have to be aggressive Toks... There is two sides to everything, you can't just dish out advice by your own experience.


Well since your thread is for mature single guys, let them go for themselves then. Funniest form of defense I've ever read .

Abeg leave my guy Toks2008 alone
But this one you're quoting him, seems you're giving him green light
On a more serious note sometimes you just have to leave common sense behind if you want to get married or keep a marriage. Toks2008 is right. But ladies fears today is because they don't want to soak garri which they forget you must soak at a point because life isn't Rosy.

Oh death, where is your sting? I feel like my legs hurt

Tim Bergling popularly known as Avicii is dead. Men I'm so sad right now. I barely listen to naija jams but Avicii was like my Davido. His songs speaks to me. Remember when I was going for my DSS exam and I was nervous I played his song, The Night, all through the journey and it gave me the confidence I needed. Just can't believe he's dead. He's one of the artist I hoped to see and tell how his songs really impacted my life.
Wake me up

Feeling my way through the darkness
Guided by a beating heart
I can't tell where the journey will end
But I know where to start
They tell me I'm too young to understand
They say I'm caught up in a dream
Well life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes
Well that's fine by me
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself, and I
Didn't know I was lost
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself, and I
Didn't know I was lost
Mods abeg let people know he's gone

The Nights
Hey, once upon a younger year
When all our shadows disappeared
The animals inside came out to play
Hey, when face to face with all our fears
Learned our lessons through the tears
Made memories we knew would never fade
He said, "One day you'll leave this world behind
So live a life you will remember."
My father told me when I was just a child
These are the nights that never die
My father told me

Thanks for the memories

See am space booker

I've heard it several times that when a woman age pass 30 she becomes desperate and starts running from church to church looking for a husband, it sounds stereotypical but I have observed it from friends and family and found out that there's some element of truth in it.
I know a lady who was has this picky attitude, she was in her thirties and no man, along the line she starts working for a popular Pastor and warmed herself into the family and into this man bed. The man left his family for her and after some years cohabiting and after she gave birth to a child things went sour and she left. Before she did I was with her a particular day and she got a call from an old friend, they were having a school reunion 30 years after and was invited.
After the call she refused to go, her reasons were that she would feel ashamed, most of her friends had grown kids, some were visiting the country because of the get together. She was regretting her decisions.

Another lady I knew spent her time working, which isn't bad, but she was too selective. Silly reasons from age gap to the guy not working and that. She finally got married in her 30s to a chump. A lazy guy who is even younger than her. She sends money to this guy monthly, he's far away and even refused her visiting, and he even uses her car and sells it at will. Now she's regretting also. She pays the bills while he answers the man of the house tittle.

I think for ladies they have to be extremely careful, you could end up in a shitty marriage or just have to settle for second wife or compete with another woman for her husband and mostly regret the decision. Men too sometimes make the same mistake. One I know always used the popular excuse that he still has time joor, now he ended up marrying a lazy bum and one who don't have a vision for herself because he found out that time was not on his side.

Sometimes it works for those who wait but I've seen so many marriages crumble because they didn't marry the partner that it could have worked for because they either listened to society that claims they're too young or for the men were waiting for that big paycheck.

I'm not a marriage counselor or relationship expert I just felt like sharing these here.

Run is the key man

Please run bro. If not for anything but for your wife and kids. Imagine what would happen if it spills that you guys are having an affair. The marriage will be broken, family ties broken and the kids will live with such stigma. It's not the actions that matters but the consequences of the action. I'm glad you're seeing the funny side of her actions, flee bro.

How does the bold tally with
"Now I want to know, even if we don't want Buhari to return in 2019 who is the right candidate to replace him because frankly there's no legitimate candidate. "

80% of the candidates that have expressed their wish to run for Presidency are just recycled Buhari. Donald Duke have expressed his desire too and he had an overwhelming support but it's unlikely the pdp will use him as their front-runner and it's very unlikely there would be a coalition.

AZeD1:
There are a over 100M Nigerians, if we cannot find anyone better than Buhari then the country should be sold.



PS: To the olodo who asked this mumu question, Nature abhors vacuums and no one is irreplaceable. The very thought that someone educated (i am assuming here) thinks there's no candidate to replace Buhari shows how bad the educational sector is.

You shouldn't make yourself a complete buffoon in a bid to appear smart and intelligent which you are not. It will do you well if you read to understand. They're are several possible candidate and I only created this thread so intelligent minds can discuss persons they see as suitable candidate. Electing or choosing a suitable candidate do not mean a country's education sector is functioning properly, the US elected a man with zero political experience and a clown into the most prestigious presidential position in the world. Next time turn your sense on before you quote me.

SalamRushdie:
So because there is no legitimate candidate (What ever that means) we should now elect for another 4 years of rudderless and purposeless suffering , bloodshed and hardship under Buhari? Oga is there is no legitimate candidate we will vote u as president instead of Buhari.

Just say the word and I'll run for the 2019 Presidential election . of course you'll be my campaign manager

IME1:
Question of the month

For me between Durotoye and Sowore

Everyone has their own candidate. I think that's how we could loose to Buhari because come 2019 the country is going to be divided on candidate. The east has it's candidate, the west has it's candidate, the south also and despite the fact that some wants Buhari to return based on the fact that he's their meal ticket, those that wants him gone have different candidate

Yesterday I checked to verify if I could vote with my voters card and it confirmed that I can. Now I want to know, even if we don't want Buhari to return in 2019 who is the right candidate to replace him because frankly there's no legitimate candidate. PDP haven't put their house in order, although it's still April 2018 but at least an eligible candidate or someone who the people have seen to be credible should have emerged.
2015 we were so desperate for change not because we really wanted Buhari but because of the failures and controversies of GEJ.
So please nairalanders, Nigerians my country people... Who should we vote for come 2019, else the mistake of 2015 repeat itself

doreto:
I almost threw up after reading this.

Birds of the same dirty feathers flock together is real.

Here you are picking fights with everyone. I didn't quote you sir, I believe everyone commenting have their various opinion, it would be mature of you to choose to abide by the way you feel is best for you, not being mean to those who you don't agree with their opinion. Sometimes people have different opinions it doesn't mean they're entirely wrong or you attack their personality.

coolcatty:
God bless you man.....leave that proud high headed doreto.

The guy is obviously frustrated. ..has a very big for nothing ego. ...he is angry with the world and doesn't want to take advise....he is looking for who to massage his ego....

He has no game....a man with game would have counted his losses by now and moved on....but no...dead nigggah wants to show his ex wife that he is done....a woman that is so far gone...and woman that has moved on sef. .that's who this doreto Guy wants to show pepper.

Smh....

He sounds too familiar, if you've experienced first hand a man who is too high up his horse you would understand. Divorce is not the way forward, what he needs is healing and acceptance. Then work on himself before dating someone else and even if he does it won't hurt if he's picky about it. That aside you should open a marriage counseling blog or something , I'll be your number one fan
