CultureRe: My Wife-To-Be Is An "Osu" by candies(f): 1:31pm On Jan 16, 2008
If they were used for rituals, then, they must have been killed for the gods, thus they are not suppose to have any lineage in our times.

From my understanding of Chinua Achebe's 'No longer at ease' or 'Arrow of God' (I'm no longer sure which of the books I got that from) The Osus where regular people that were dedicated to serve the gods. For this reason, their heads were never shaved, they kept dreadlocks and hardly had their baths.
From that account, they didn't need to do anything custormarily wrong, they were just dedicated to the gods.
They were not allowed to marry from other families except within themselves.

If this or even what Omo Ibo said above is true, how does that affect us today?

I really am not getting this own thing! Let's just stop this unnecessary discrimination and live life.
If I meet someone real sweet and cool, loving and caring, you mean, I'll let him go because he's an Osu?
You must be kidding me! I'm marry him over and over and over again!

You're right dear, my roommate used to say; We always need to respect the decisions people make out of some situations, dnt critisize too much or pass judgement too early. . .wait until u find yourself in that same situation n see if u won't make the same mistake or take the same measures. . . even worse than the person did! Never say never! kiss

Please someone should tell me what qualifies an individual OSU.

Are they born as Osus or have they done some aborminable things that qualify them thus?

I really need to know what makes them unqualifed human beings. Please good NLanders, help me out here.

CareerRe: Can Your Career Stop You From Finding True Love? by candies(f): 12:18pm On Jan 16, 2008
Career could adversely affect our love life if we're not careful. I almost lost my boyfriend once to too much dedication to my job.
Fortunately, I saw the handwritng on the wall and was fast enough to discourage the lady that was encroaching into my property FAST!

Who cares weather you stink or not?
It's not a secret all your posts always stink. By their posts you know them!

i appreciate the topic, the different posts, but something about life is less than 5% of married couples married their dream mates. A research was carried out. do i say the result is the high divorce rates, well i don't know.

what have i got to say : YOU CANT HAVE IT ALL, at a stage you have to blend, rather than do the blending.
Thanks Zeroes, I'll put that at the back of my mind. But trust me, there are things I still won't live with!
RomanceRe: Beautiful Ladies in the House Good Morning by candies(f): 11:04am On Jan 16, 2008
@ sylvao,
There's a big difference between SOME and MOST.
If your girl smells so nice that you eat her often, what business have you got with other girls?

I love being kissed in public - not too nasty though.
I love being kissed cause to me, it just shows that he is affectionate towards me.
I feel you girl, same here, same here.
RomanceRe: Why Won't You Marry Him/her by candies(op): 10:57am On Jan 16, 2008
Yes, Bblak,
That is the point. What makes a man NOT your dream man?

@ zheroes,
I feel you, but I just won't change my mind about these things.
I hear some big guys out there made 3rd class in school, if he made a 3rd class and gets a second degree like Wole Soyinka did and he excels, then, the 3rd class is no longer his only degree. I could make excuses for him.
But if that is all he has to offer, sorry, i just won't marry him, rich or poor.

RomanceRe: Why Won't You Marry Him/her by candies(op): 10:41am On Jan 16, 2008
There have been a lot of posts on things we love about men and other such posts. I think things we like will make us marry them, but this is just the opposite.

There are a few other things I don't like, but these ones above are things I can't stand! I won't marry him, trust me, no matter what other likes of mine he posesses.

Tell me though, why won't you marry her?

Besides, when I said Bill Gates, I was talking money!
RomanceRe: I Am Dating Two Twins By Mistake Please Help Me Out by candies(f): 10:28am On Jan 16, 2008
This sounds very unlikely but if it's true, you need deliverance by a spiritual pastor, cleansing by an Ifa priest and a psychiatrist as well as a renowned psychologist to get you back to you feet!
RomanceRe: Do You Allow Your Partner To Pick Your Calls? by candies(f): 10:21am On Jan 16, 2008
I don't pick his calls but I really don't mind if he picks mine.
He was in the bathroom yesterday and his call rang 3ce. When he came out, he asked me why I didn't pick it up. I simply told him that I didn't because he didn't ask me to.

Get a life young man! What's stopping you from telling her you love her just because you're not sure she feels the same way towards you?
Wait until you're sure, by that time, she'll be safe in the arms of someone else who's ready to take the risk of rejection for love. How old are you by the way?
RomanceWhy Won't You Marry Him/her by candies(op): 9:54am On Jan 16, 2008
I read a post yesterday where a guy said he was dumped by his girlfriend because he's an HND holder.

I guess there are some reasons we've sworn never to marry a guy for.

For me, I can't marry a guy who made 3rd class in school
A guy who is younger than me
A muslim

If a guy has these 3 qualities, trust me, even if he's as rich as bill gates or as handsome and sexy as George Cloony, I still won't marry him.
Comon people, tell me why you won't marry him/her?

Bankole01:
Yar'Dull/Dumb is called by his own handlers 'Baba go slow' and known as a do nothing president.
He only goes to the office from 8am to 4pm and closes all weekend long!!!!!!!!!!

If Ribadu stays true to himself and above board, this can only help to enhance him.
If he eventually becomes a leader of this nation, I believe he will do great things for the nation.
Are you sure of this? We are so doomed! cry cry embarassed embarassed undecided undecided cry
