vikel2104: The thing that baffle me is that an introvert tends to understand people but yet they're the most misunderstood. I tend to sense peoples' feelings but when it comes to me, they don't even care to know. Another thing is that an introvert tends to understand and get clues quickly. So it pisses me off sometimes when people cannot understand seemingly simple things. I guess it has to do with our ability to think deeply. I prefer thought-provoking discussions rather than empty chatter. That's why some people cannot discuss with me because i don't like shallow talk and that's what most people engage in. Let's just say I love depth in everything I do. I love to ask the question 'why?' before I do things but people would prefer that I go with the flow and just do what everyone is doing. I have a way of revealing myself to people depending on who it is. If I meet a total stranger who I'm most likely never going to see again, I could chat and act like an extrovert. But if I'm most likely going to be seeing the person often, I show them my real introverted self with the mind that with time they'll see that that is how I am and those who accept me will finally make friends with me. Over the years I've come to be able to talk in front of people but I'm still not very comfortable when it's impromptu. If I'm told to teach something, I go the extra mile to make sure you undertand because I don't like the thought that i've wasted my time, my precious time. Staying indoors? Oh there is nothing as blissful as my 'me time' I hate noise more than anything. (sorry for the long unparagraphed post. But being an introvert I know you had the patience to read through it)

Bolt3: Nice trend I am an extreme introvert because I like reading books and rearly speak. In my high school I spent 90% of my free time in the library as a result my friend thought I was weird and I believed them. As a result I hated myself and really thought I couldn't change.
Thank God I have accepted myself for who I am. I now know I am not abnormal however I make a conscious effort to come of my confort zone as a result I am more social.

curiouses: Big fat lie! No real guy don't care about curves. Only dogs chase after flat girls.

fiverrwin: Am my husband is handsome, a good xtian and is faithful to our marriage. My friends are dying to have a piece of him. Can you imagine what I go tru in the hands of my friends telling me how selfish I am with my man. He is a very jovial man. Where ever he is and is shy he uses jokes to cover his shyness which make even married women both within and outside the church want him dearly. A friend wanted to pay me just to sneak into my bed when the light is off to have sex with him. No be small tin ohh my people

martyns303: U guys are just bashing the OP without in-depth, am not sure he his looking for attention, but identity. He is a fresh man and is looking for kinds he can relate with, noticed he was quick to identify with the blacks n their nationality? As a fresher u may need help with where and how things are, or even where to get naija food (considering the OP just moved to the US). My brother I can relate to where u are coming from, ur mother, father, or relatives is not there, u don't know anybody, there's nothing wrong in seeking out for ur fellow country men. U may fumble around here and there but you will be fine with time.

macklef: Smh. Why didnt you tell us of the lecturers instead. You seem distracted already. 1 your already on a population census to gain friends, 2, ur already looking for females to add to 1 so u can bleep up.
Soon, uld start saying thee cocaine over there looks authentic than d ones in surulere. I pirry u man.

vicadex07: Stop famzing the Niger deltans. They don't want to have anything to do with you cos they know you're going to try and steal their "OYEL" and land like you're presently trying to do in Lagos.

I repeat, the Ijaw are not your allies

childofGod09: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You are very sad. I love and respect my white wife and I am not interested in any cheap females. My wife gives me all the love I need and I would not hurt and disrespect my wife who is mother of my children. PROBABLY YOUR BLACK MEN are looking at beautiful white ladies behind your back and that is why you bitter. Black females have highest percentage of obesity and STDs. My cousin works in the clinic and has the information first hand. Black men are opening their eyes and seeing black women for what they are bitter creatures full of hate. Exept very few like my relatives who are Godly women who do not hate white women. At my workplace which is University you barely see a black female as employers do not want to employ them as they cause trouble everywhere. Due to discrimination rules the employers are forced to employ some of them but sooner or later they are dismissed due to their own mistake as they cause problems and arguments in the workplace.

daben1: shhhhh, u just need 'likeS'

Josh316: OP,

First of all, you need to tell us where your area is. Thats the only way to compare any challenges you have.

Secondly, Nigerians need to understand that this is a new era. You dont have to sit down and keep sulking about the power situation. Walk up to your service provider to discuss the challenges you have in your area, rather than assume that it is a general issue. it could well be limited to your sub-station.

Two years ago, the light situation in my area was very bad. I naturally assumed it was a general thing till i went to the office of the Electricity company to ask what the issue was. They now informed me that they were carrying out some equipment overhaul and it would take a few months to complete the project.

Now, the light situation in my area is fairly stable and way better than two years ago.

Residents in Lagos will have more issues to deal with because the defunct NEPA did a horrible job with substations and power lines. Most of the high density areas will experience more blackouts because they will need to overhaul some sub-stations and transmission lines completely. No thanks to illegal connections and obsolete equipment.

adebayor1490: Like if you think that d guy above me is only looking for likes

Vado: A wake up call for African leaders. I think if eventually, Africa survives this plague, the health sector would be invested in heavily by right-thinking countries of course.

Back to the topic, I don't think Zmapp has been mass produced yet so tell me, which patients among the 1000+ do y'all think the US should administer an unapproved vaccine to? It makes no sense castigating them for now. The infected spanish doc was a volunteer offering selfless services to some africans (something even most negros wouldn't do). Appreciate and stop hating for no damn reason pps. Rather, implore our leaders to sopen their eyes and step up to the plate.
