BusinessRe: Cosmetics Shop Set Up by chinene1(f): 6:34pm On Jan 14, 2017
I have decided to try out the importers of make up and cosmetic products at trade fair Lagos. Will be going sometime next month to get a rough estimate of how much I need. Will share with the house once I do.

Cheers everyone

Hi guys. Sorry I have been silent on this thread. Seems I am getting closer to getting my dream shop space. Here are some of the criteria I used in narrowing down my choice.

1. Newly built shop so I can Behind it as I like or nearly vacated shop so I don't do much renovating.

2. Shop with a curb before the drainage. (like shown in the picture I will attach). This will allow me space to extend my wears and place my advert banners

3. Shop close to the bus stop or on a busy road

4 affordable

5. Shop in an area that complements my business.

Men, agreement and agent fees are quite expensive oh. 80k in total apart from the shop rent. Thank God it's just for one year. I will still look out for more shops this week and hopefully conclude before the end of the week.

I have attached some pictures of places I am considering.

The first one has a large curb, packing space, close to a bus stop, newly built with no competition around. The gate will be removed.

The second I newly built, has a filling station and Plaza near it, a curb, and business to complement mine.
Both located not to far from me.

She lied... she was gonna keep it secret till death. By the way, she ain't no wife to be. You can go ahead lying to your husband to be and get dumped. You think marriage is telemundo?
Whoa! Hold your horses and don't even go there. Keep your observations and remarks to this issue and don't elude anything about me or my personal life. You really don't want me on your case!

There are still good girls out there. No one is perfect yes, but common, any girl that can lie consistently for four good solid years to her future husband not boyfriend, not lover, her husband to be should be feared.

Yes, we have many better halfs in our compound.
I hear you. Can't deal abeg. Op, listen to this guy. Dump your girl and go straight to his compound. Your missing rib is there. cool

Just look at how "women" apply subtle pressure to goad a man into doing what he should not have done! shocked

Sounds like Eve telling Adam in the Bible: Consider all l have done for you.... just ignore God and listen to me joor! shocked shocked
But when the man gets into poo, what does she say next: You should not have listen to me now, why do you call yourself a man sef, if you have to listen to a woman, ehn? angry angry

Look, STOP using all these "pressure points" on men, most men know it for what it is: PRESSURISING..
Kid or no kids, shun others or not, risk or riskier, she will make one damn troublesome home, built on LIES, for him.
That is not what we want for this young man, we want him to enjpy married life, not be beholden to a lying wife,.... worse that the Devil, of you ask me! undecided

And please dont come-back with the "victim narration" or the "you've been hurt before" tale! grin
Its all "pressure points" that dont sell anymore! Eyes don clear nowadays!
Give it a rest will you? When it comes to love and marriage, nothing is chiseled in stone. This is getting boring abeg.

You just don't get it do you?

Truth is everybody lies, but when it comes to something you know might come out in the open in some not so distant future. It's just wise to come clean.

And if you truly love someone, you wouldn't lie consistently for good four years. In fact if you can lie to your man for four years without remorse, then I don't think there's anything you can't lie about with him.

I get your point though. But Op should know better. He's been with her and he knows her better than anyone. Make your decision man.
For a girl to lie and keep up such a lie for 4 years, she must have been scared of losing him. If it's just for her getting married, am sure other guys approached her within the time and she could have left him for another. People sometimes do the wrong things when they are scared.
But ultimately it's his decision

Why are you are sounding like you are the lady in question? huh shocked shocked

Why did you lie to him about your age?

Old Cargo forming under-16! grin grin grin

Well we get all sorts of children commenting on nairaland nowadays. Am glad we are not mates and yes even if am not older than you in age which I find unlikely, am sure my level of reasoning is way above yours. That makes me old and proud!

P.S, am sure if you really apply yourself, you could sound matured. Just try.

And who made you a better judge?

The guy spoke the truth.

The foundation is faulty. She will continue to shock him. That's just the truth. Any girl that can keep such a very vital information from her future hubby isn't a wife material. Better late than sorry.

Op, I'm talking from experience. I forgave in my own case like on three different shockers too(including lie about age too, I also discovered this from her mum). She will continue to shock you guy.

Break up with her or live with the regrets for the rest of your life.

Be wise man. Life is too short to marry a problem
You've been hurt before and may have had some similar issues but that does not mean his case will be like yours. I can't understand how people just complicate matter. She lied about her age does not mean she will lie about everything else.
Anyway, at the end, it's for Op to decide.

Op, do you trust your taste in women? If yes then am sure you will know the right thing to do.

Bro dump that biatc.h and move on. You don't hide anything from someone you plan to spend the rest of your life with.

This kinda girl can get pregnant for your friend and make you father the baby till you die. Let her go and find her lying partner.. don't understand why ppl tell stupid lies.
Thank God I saw your profile so I won't take you seriously. Could you also be respectful to his wife to be and not call her a bi*ch?

Op can you see your life. Someone who doesn't even know your woman is using such foul language on her. You try!

Any girl that can lie about her age just to look young for you to get married to can lie about just anything.

Break up with her now.

Solid relationship is built on truth not lies.

Don't listen to these peeps talking about love. It takes trust for any relationship to last, not just love. Break up with her.

The foundation is wrong already.

Break up, I repeat break up with her. Save your future bro.

Your better half is still out there.

I'm pretty sure she has lied about other foundational stuffs too. I'm talking from experience man.

BREAK UP WITH THAT BITCH. SAVE YOURSELF FROM UNNCESSARY future troubles.
Am sure you have his better half in your compound waiting for him.

You are just too inexperienced to know what you are dabbling into.

First, Women "age' faster than men but live longer.
Secondly, a Girl reaches puberty faster than a Boy, Women also reaches Menopause faster than Men.

The above are reasons why a man would likely marry a woman that he is a little bit older than.
I have seen "elderly people" in their fifties (about same age), coming to court for divorce! WHY? The woman claimed that her husband of almost thirty years, wants to "sex her to death"! grin grin
The husband in-turn, out of sheer frustration, says "My wife is denying me sex"!

I pity both of them but the truth is that The man is still very virile (at 55, most men just dey start sef!) while the woman has entered menopause in the last five years! grin grin
The result is that the woman's libido at that point has ran down completely while the man's is still pumping!

if such man has married a woman he is older than (say between 5 -10yrs), by the time she is entering Menopause, he is also "slowing down " and with a little sacrifice, they can both age gracefully!
So, if you say "age does not matter or affect happiness in marriage", you know not what you are talking about.

This is aside to the fact that she LIED to her Groom all through the years of their courtship.

What next?

But hey, a man who will not condone such lie would probably have taken his decision, he definitely wont come asking on Nairaland for "help"!
Women, if your man cannot take bold decisions without coming to Nairaland ......... Hmmmmm, be ready to be the Husband o! grin grin

Wetin concern me sef? ??

Mr Experience, am sure people consider more important factors other than sex and looking younger than hubby when planning to get married.

FRAUD ..... is FRAUD!

Some may say "its a SIMPLE thing" but remember that any house build on FRAUD, will never succeed!

if its a "simple thing", WHY would she deceive you over it for 4yrs?
If its really a "simple thing" why was she not forthright with it from the start?
If she is "strong enough" to hide such simple things for FOUR years, what other "not so simple things" is she hiding from you?

You just have to be AFRAID of a lady that can plan her future and marriage on DECEIT!
You can hide your age from outsiders but to hide your true age from your Husband? shocked shocked


She has "shocked" you, she will continue to shock you .... I only hope you dont get "completely electrocuted" in the process.
This one is VERY DESPERATE oooo! shocked shocked

My advise? Dont marry this one o! (even if the wedding is this morning)

People like you amaze me. Just listen to yourself go on and on. He should cancel the wedding, she will continue to lie and cheat abi? She is terrible person, bla bla bla. Who died and made you judge and jury? If the lady was your sister, daughter, niece would you advise the same?
It's a good thing there is so much voice of reason in this thread and hopefully op will forgive, get married and live happily ever after. I really wish to meet whoever is responsible for your way of thinking or who left and made you lonely and bitter. Please ehn, try and see someone about this bitterness you carry around. A pastor or a psychologist.

met her 4yrs ago and wedding is close. got the shocker of my life shez 4yrs older than what she told me. i am considering backing out as a result. coz if she cn do this to me i wonder whatelse she could be hidding. worse part is its her mum who told me. the girl in question has no idea i know. am so shocked.any help on what to do in regatds this latest discovery?
Ha, wait oh. Before you call off your wedding, I want to ask a simple question. Is she now older than you? If yes, does the age difference diminish your love?
When has age become a terminal or communicable disease. The issue is trust which I fully understand but like most people have said confront her and let her know the next time she lies you won't forgive her. Don't complicate your life and hers unnecessarily by backing out now. This woman is about to promise her life to you. She will be risking her life in the labour room to bring forth your children, she is signing up to make a home for you. She is shunning all others for you. Can't you consider that and forgive?
I can't understand how people say 'I love you' but attach unnecessary conditions to it. I though love was supposed to be forgiving, selfless, and without conditions? Thing it through please.
FashionRe: Advice Needed... How Do I Start This Business by chinene1(f): 8:58pm On Jan 12, 2017
[quote author=Julietcutie post=50071347]Good Morning all please I would like to start a business of selling hair attachment and extensions /weavon but I don't know the basics... I intend using a capital of 300k please just give me an advise is there much gain in the business, should my capital be bigger... do I need to rent a shop e. t. c please anyone or those in to the business help your fellow nairalander...

Don't let anyone discourage you on your choice of business. Yes we are in recession but ladies still make hair, use attachment and extensions. It's easier to maintain than natural hair.
Now to your question. Do you intend to have a shop or sell out of your bag? If you intend to have a shop then you need a little more money considering you will need to pay rent, renovate, and buy products. I think it's better to have a good amount of extensions and attachments as you start up.
If you are selling out of your bag then you need to figure out who is your target audience and how to reach them.
I would prefer you have a shop preferably near a bus top, busy area, or in the market. Avoid street shops unless it's a busy street with lots of good traffic because patronage may be limited to those who frequently pass the street.
Next start with common and high grade synthetic. Don't go into human hair yet until you start getting orders. For this you can partner with suppliers to give you some stuff on part payment.
On the gain, Find out where to get your product at the cheapest rate, do a survey of how much it's sold in other shops and bring down your price a little so you can make profit but also offer your customers a good bargain.
It's a business that can yield good profit if you get them at a good price.

I also suggest you do a survey on what type of extensions ladies but most, what hair styles are in vogue, best extensions in the market and other information that will allow you advice your customers.
Hope this helps.
FamilyRe: My Wife Is Not What I Thought Before We Got Married: I Want To Divorce by chinene1(f): 8:10pm On Jan 03, 2017
I understand you but sir, I think you need to sit her down and ask what exactly she wants to do with her life.
You made a lot of suggestions aimed at helping her better herself but it seems she was and is not interested in any. Hence she refused to follow up with them.
I agree 1.5m is a large sum but then you could give her the money in bits. E.g, first give her money for the shop. Once she gets one then give her money for renovating it before money for stocking it.
Once she has something that will get her out of the house regularly her dressing may improve and so will her spoken English because she will have to interact with people.
On having more babies, you both need to agree on a type of family planning method. A large family will surely put a strain on your income. Both parties are supposed to be involved in family planning.
Don't just give up. Keep trying and be patient. It will all work out.
Car TalkRe: Educated Or Uneducated Mechanic? Which Is Better? by chinene1(f): 7:56am On Oct 28, 2016
I use two mechanics. One educated who works on the engine and the order not educated who does the electrical work. I like the uneducated one more cos when I call him to work on my car he even does the one I didn't send him. Lol. He ensures that every thing is checked and working and can price spare parts like a woman pricing tomatoes. grin

The educated one is real ajebo. To come wahala, Oya fix this. He will fix it and then two weeks later something else spoils. When I complain he will say he saw it but since I didn't mention it he didn't try to fix it. Also instead of him to go to Ladipo to buy parts he buys them from resellers around him for a higher price. But I must confess he is good with engines.

They will say all sorts but make sure you get stronger. We women are strong. We can with stand nearly anything. At the end of of day you will come out victorious. P.S, never let anyone see you frustrated, unhappy or in tears. Always show smile no matter what! Stay we away from your ex. YOU CAN DO THIS!

What is this one saying? Is it right? Like seriously, What does the east have to do with this? If you have nothing positive to say, shut it! Our children are being forced to become wives. Our female children are being victimized. They are kids, Nigerians. If we can't stand up for them then be prepared to raise your kids in a perverted nation. Nonsense!
Bari22:
Yess irreversible, hypocrisy is when eastners celebrate a 14 year old girl for doing illigal sex and at the same time blaming we muslims for marrying up our 14 year old. After all they are baby factory products, a baby is just worth N20,000 in their region.
