Romance / Re: Mum Says I Must Quit My Extravagant Lifestyle And Get Married This Year Or... by brownusagirl(f): 4:45am On Jun 04, 2012 |
[quote author=xxhoney]Well I can say dat I've lived life, tasted d good part of life but wen it comes 2 commitment, I avoid it like a plague, I feel what's d use to go in2 one, as chances are u'd get ur heart broken I was there twice & I saw what my friendz (both male & female) also went through in d hands of their partners & thought why don't I fly solo & enjoy my life. I graduated in 2005 with a first class in chemical engineering & later got a scholarship to do my masters in oil & gas in d Uk, wen I finished d program, I came back 2d country & secured a job with Total which I later turned down even after writing their tests & interviews I felt it was going 2 cage me as I wanted to explore many things in life, u may call me silly as that wat friends always thot some even felt I didn't deserve my brains and dat Im too pretty & flashy to be so intelligent but I don't really like d idea of being tied down 2 one job I'm a very independent lady, a successful & smart business woman. I stay in a fully furnished 2 bedroom apartment & I drive a Bmw X6, I've traveled to four different countries & still counting coz my arss is neva in one place. I love outings & occasions alot, I'm d very adventurous type, I'm outspoken & its difficult for anyone to outsmart me. Now here's where d problem comes in; A job was secured for me by my mum (without my knowledge) in a well known multinational oil & gas company here & my mum is reigning fire & brimstone if I don't accept d job & settle down b4 december & live like a responsible woman. She's not comfortable with d fact dat I'm always on d move up and down, here and there. She has told me that if I don't settle down dis year, I shouldn't call her again. She &my dad had just 2 of us, I'm 29 and my kid brother is 21 he's studying in the US. How do I get myself to accept commitment and marriage ? Should I take d job & live a life I'm not used to? Sounds easy but not for me....[/quote Nothing like independence! Lol back to the topic, nobody can tell you when to get married. My mother is nagging me as well but I just ignore her. You should tell the people worried about your love life that they aren't going to be in that relationship and shouldn't force you in any direction you don't wanna go. If they can't understand, then ignore them like me. |

CyberG:And I see your point but I'm stating what I see. I had a professor from Ghana say that when he was a student, he was advised not to really mix with the other black students. Good for grades but bad for social life. Many are unaware of the issues here that blacks face. One did not even know about trayvon martin. This was crazy to me because it could have happened to any black man not just an american one. |

davidylan: All the africans I know who choose to embrace us are embraced back. If you are standoffish with us then we will do the same for you. I know some who only stay to other africans so of course no other black students embrace them. |

davidylan: Child please! I have never been on welfare. All of my family and friends went to college and are professionals. Stop watching so much tv hun cuz its frying your brain! I hope you never come to america cuz you won't fare well here. You sound like a stupid white person. You are hating us yet the whole world wants to be US! That is our culture that is highly sought after! Our music, movies, clothes, books etc etc etc |

michelin89: I'm not fond of replying such topics but I must say at this point I'm really fed up.Another example of africans looking down on us. When you step your foot in america then the white people will think you are a black american. They will not care you are from nigeria or the moon and will treat you the same as they treat me. Africans do not seem unified. Maybe if you all didn't get so caught up in nationalities, then the CONTINENT as a whole would do a lot better. |

Africans gotta stop judging and looking down on blacks in america. That sh!!!t is not cool. |

chidebe: I just heard on BBC that African-Americans now to be called Blacks as they don't want anything to do with Africa. My take: THIS IS AN ACUTE CASE OF IDENTITY CRISIS. Meanwhile, the same report quotes a Nigerian diasporan as wanting to be called CONTINENTAL AFRICAN, whatever that means! As a black person from american we have embraced being called black. Don't judge us because you do not know us or our culture. I prefer black over african american because I feel it gives unity with black people all over the world. Yes I am from africans but most blacks here feel they have never been to africa (and many don't wanna go but there are others such as myself who would jump at the opportunity to go to africa for a few weeks) so don't call them that. We only really think about it when you ask us though so here you will see it both ways. I don't know but to when in professional settings I say african american. Does it matter? We know we are from africa. |

Idk what y'all hair stores looking like or how long you trying to wear weave but girl get the twenty dollar(idk how much it is in nigeria) hair and you'll be good. Its how you put it in that determines whether it looks good. Please look on youtube.com because I'm not pleased with what I see in movies. I'm just saying. |
