FamilyRe: My Marriage Has Finally Ended by Brightgem(f): 1:10pm On Jan 06, 2018
kunleajaye:
Thank you all for your kind comments in this trying times for me. I do love my wife and I adore my kids and would never abandon them. I came to the US with her to better myself and further my education, and since i didn't want her to remain idle and dormant while i studied, i advised her to apply to skool too. All this I explained in my post last year. I'll do anything for my kids and wife and she knows it.
Yhellooow.... No doubt its a tough one, ignore those insulting... etc... Stripper wrong, too much bitterness, the way u say it, u still want things to work. If u really do, put in effort, change ur mind set, decide u will support her. If u have to return to Naija do so, abeg I dnt knw what people find abroad o! If after trying u fail, she doesn't budge, move along, just be a part of you kids lives. In the end, what to do lies in ur hands! But do the right thing, and be kind to urself afterwards.

What is there to celebrate here ?

That they both got married without a proper knowledge of each others personalities and background ? Whether you like it or not, they have not acted sensibly to reduce the chances of conflict , incompatibility and divorce in the future.

What a generation.
word! been waiting for that comment that will hit. In this era where its snakes and wolfs in sheep's clothing, you dnt knw who is genuine and real, whats worse here is she claims to have just gotten out of a toxic relationship. Hmm... and jumps into another. There's a lot to know about someone, and 1month is not enough.

So real men are men ready to carry someone else baggagehuh

So those who don't like embarking on journey they will later regret are not real men bahuh

I am sure your dad didn't marry your mom a single mother, and I am sure none of your married brothers did,which means your dad is not a real man lol

Ladies and their wacked definition of real men; any man that's taking ladies bullshit and answering yes yes to their nonsense is a real man, a word they use to manipulate feeble and faint hearted men, it no longer work in 2018 lol‎
Much as you have your point, that isn't what she meant, she isnt limiting only men who will accept her as real men but that the more real she is, the more likely to attract genuine men, and yes some men cannot handle this, they have a choice not to, we all hav a choice what we can accept. Bottom line is women shd be careful, as they are the ones who carry evidence that sex happened and society will not be Merciful.

Physical attraction is my number one priority, I don't know what's yours but that's mine. If anything happens to me so be it but i can't love an ugly person period.
Haahahaaaha! Well, to everyone his own. Good luck.

As a man I honestly don't think so, We are moved by sight. And i consider myself to be physically attractive any way, Why should i love someone who isn't? Ugly people should only love themselves. I know someone will quote me now and tell me nobody is born ugly, But deep down we all know the truth.
and if some life event took away your so called good looks, you will now be wailing when those you expected to love you for who you are now expect you to love yourself. Did you give urself the good looks? pls answer. Some ugly comments shd never make it out of people's minds. Love things in people that you can still love when the physicall is gone, because its a universal truth that it will go. One day you will remember you read this words, and for saying what u said, ur actually a very ugly person, inside and outside. Goan germinate sense.

HealthWhy I Don’t Believe In Strict Diets & You Shouldn’t Either by Brightgem(op): 4:43pm On Dec 14, 2017
Why do some fruits, vegetables, or just any other edible plants in general grow in some seasons? Why do we crave to eat certain things at some points in our lives, such as when pregnant, recovering from illness or even during illness? What is a diet? Do diets work? What is a strict or extreme diet. These and more in this post on why I don’t believe in strict diets and you shouldn’t either.

Why do some fruits, vegetables, grow in specific seasons?

Mango never grows all year round, I believe nature always gives a balance, nature and balance in the earth and in our bodies. Seasonal foods are said to be packed with extra nutrients. When produce is grown in its natural season, under the right growing conditions, it exhibits all of its natural nutrients, which means eating such produce will come with extra benefits. Studies have shown that some crops can have up to three times more nutrients when grown in season.

Such produce are also more easily available in your immediate environments and local farmer’s markets, without having to endure long trips which make them loose nutrients and taste.

The question – If you were to be on a strict diet, would you not loose out on the special nutrients which only come with fruits in season, which in turn means loosing out on health benefits and immune boosting properties of fruits and vegetables?

Why do we crave to eat certain things at some points in our lives, such as when pregnant, recovering from illness or even during illness?

I once read that sometimes when pregnant women crave certain foods its because their bodies need the nutrients from those foods, again this is nature and balance. Hence, some cravings of the pregnant mother is due to some deficiencies in her body, a shortage in magnesium can trigger cravings for chocolate, craving red meat could be a loud cry of the body for protein. Same goes to the cravings of the ill or recovering person who craves certain foods. I do not expect a pregnant woman would be on some strict diets except if its by the doctor’s orders due to some conditions.

Strict diets would mean ignoring these cravings which could mean the body screaming for what it needs.

What is a Diet and what counts as Strict Diets?

A diet is the line of food a person or group habitually eats or a special and specific set of foods a person restricts themselves to for personal reasons i.e a need to loose weight or due to some health challenge.

Extreme diets too can include consuming very little food which means a person becomes anorexic or consuming too much of a specific class of food as some modern day diets suggest. There are many of such diets out there, my aim is not to discredit them at all but to simply share what I know and feel.

I do not believe in extreme diets because – All classes of food and the nutrients they offer have an importance to the body, that is why we were taught balanced diets early in life, the theory of a balanced diet still stands true. Strict and extreme diets whatever they may be intended to achieve, are not sustainable long term, leading to loss of whatever gains were achieved such as weight loss. Strict diets stress your life out, you get so worked up about avoiding eating this or that it can be unpleasant. Nutritionists believe certain cravings are useful, and nutritionists are food experts.

Finally maybe I just will not work with a strict diet because I am just a foodie ha ha! but then again I have succeeded in effectively loosing weight in the past through a combination of all the foods around me with the exclusion of junk eating of course and other obviously irritating and weight gain triggering foods like gluten. However I must add that some persons really do need strict diets due to health challenges they suffer. Always refer to your doctors or nutritionists.

Have a positive health attitude.

HealthRe: 8 Reasons To Stop Drinking Coke Every Day by Brightgem(f): 2:56pm On Oct 29, 2017
RoyalBlak007:
A lot of recent studies show that consuming sodas every day starts to wreak havoc on your dietary intake without you even noticing it.

Vitamin deficiency

The phosphoric acid contained in Coke along with caffeine, which has a diuretic effect, starts washing nutrients and vitamins out of your body 60 minutes after you had the drink. Imagine that happening every day. That’s how a vitamin deficiency starts.
Ignore what they are saying! Awesome post! I observed personally that after drinking coke I go completely weak, so weak I cannot even hold a spoon! I stopped drinking it years ago for this reason and I dnt add white sugar to anything, anymore! For those interested in health articles. visit www.yourhealthattitude.com
CareerRe: How Do I Deal With A Staff That Resigns Abruptly? by Brightgem(f): 9:39am On Oct 21, 2017
AgamaHub:
Hello Nairalanders,
I have something that has been bothering me for some time now. I manage a hotel here in Nigeria, and the hotel is under renovation. I have 5staffs and just barely 5 functional rooms. Recently someone came to apply for the post of cleaner in the Hotel, I did an interview on her and asked her a lot of questions regarding the job, she said she could do the job. The next day she started work without waiting for a message from me. Few days into the work, other staffs started complaining that she isn't doing her duties, I called for a meeting and asked her if she was sure she could do this job, she said yes, I said ok. 1 week latter she says she can't continue the work, that I should pay her for the one she has worked.
Now she is disturbing me for 2weeks that she worked here.
What do I do?
She came to work wit that mission in mind, some security guys do that, they will work for a month and are gone after pay! Have an agreement next time, nothing beats a written agreement. whether as an offer letter or as an agreement signed. But for now u really don't have a choice than to pay.

Jobs/VacanciesMy Problem With Jobber Man Site And A Few Others by Brightgem(op): 6:41pm On Oct 14, 2017
I am not trying to blacklist or paint these sites black. I believe they must have helped many get jobs they desire. However, by my observations recently I realise some very key factors that could make many who use these services to already have lost out from the point where they believe they have applied for a job.


The apply button on jobberman for instance takes you to a page where u fill some fields, then it is recommended you write a sort of cover letter which is advisable or you can simply send your application without one.

Instead of trying to apply right on the Jobberman site, I decided to look up the companies hiring and found that they had more requirements than Jobberman mentions...

You may not always find the vacancy on the site of the company with an opening, but to be clear this is what I observed on 2occasions.

First time - I visited the company's site after seeing their job opening on jobberman and found that they wanted CV, Cover letter and even a recent passport sent to their mail address.

Second time - Another time, another company. Their site specifically said you have to use their online form to apply for the job and any other channels are unacceptable.

BUT Jobberman does not tell you this, which means applying through their site already is invalid.

So does that mean job sites sometime list jobs even when the company did not hire them to list it? Why don't they give complete Information on what is required to apply like in the case of the first company that needs your passport?

Careers24 site simply uses ONLY your uploaded CV to apply for the job, unlike jobberman that even gives you the room for writting a letter in addition to the CV.

So when using these sites I advice people to visit the company with the opening and see if they listed the job and what is required to apply in order not to miss a chance at a good Job.

so why is she now complaining why isn't he giving her money instead, u forgot to see that part didn't u?
Bros the post is showing her concern for his lack of time for them, this one ur bringing is changing everything and the topic. The issue of him not spending a naira her way came much later, as one of the red flags. You also make it sound like she went toasting him, mind u he returned by himself after the for time she shut him out.

why is she complaining you ask, this topic is why u are typing and replied, the replies will also give others in similar situation an answer as well as help OP too be firm with her decision.

Does she sound like she doesn't have a life, I think the story is detailed enough to get the picture, its not about whining, some people cannot really understand a situation except they are in it or have experienced it.

I for one want a driven person, dnt get it twisted, this is a different situation, u can't be in a relationship and you have never ever had time even once to spend with ur partner! Makes no sense.

Fabsis you spent up to six months on this guy including the breakup. A man who loves a woman and truly wants to be with her will skip a business meeting for her, he will lie that he is sick just to get 1 day with you. I'm saying this because i have done it before.
.
This guy isnt ready yet, his career is his major proirity and you deserve someone better than that. Dont give him another chance because you have value and you running around, calling and spending might make him think otherwise.
Awesome reply, in running after the wrong things we loose our value.

You should not have to beg for the time of someone who needs you or loves u. Why is he also not able to even buy her 100 naira recharge card even once. Why can't he share Information about what is going on with him... If you are searching for a loving relationship, this does not sound like it.
