Offence?

Eyah:

It's nice to know people like you who is more concerned about character than color.

On topic:

Perhaps, you are partly to be blamed for the break-up, you should have honestly discussed directly to her about the situation. The fact that you brought up the topic here made her conclude that you are bothered and turn in-between. This could probably caused her to feel sort of fear & insecurities. As a girl, it’s quite painful knowing your family doesn't approve her.

Just give yourselves time to sort things out. If you love her & if you think she is the right one for you, go for it.

I know I didn't handle the issue appropriately. I told her of the opposition , but my mistake was watering it down for her and not giving her the full level of the opposition. My family and friends just think I should follow a safe step ie marrying someone, from home, who will be easier to get along with in terms of understanding our culture, values and a few other points they raised. She moved on and so have I, cos after talking it over we decided that there will always be issues arising from this topic in the future. And she being the laid back type didnt wanna be mired in the quagmire of opposition at the slightest turn in our relationship. I  agreed with her on that.

Farting All The Time
Doctor, "What seems to be the problem?"

Patient, "Doc, I've got the farts. I mean I fart all the time,"

The Doctor nods, "Hmm."

Patient, "My farts do not stink and you can't hear them. It's just that I fart all the time. Look, we've been talking here for about 10 minutes and I've farted five times. You didn't hear them and you don't smell them, do you?"
"Hmm," says the Doctor,

He picks up his pad and writes out a prescription.

The patient is thrilled "Great doc. This prescription, will it really clear up my farts?"

"No," sighs the Doctor, "The prescription is to clear your sinuses. Next week I want you back here for a hearing test."

Girls night out
Two women friends had gone out for a Girls Night Out, and had been decidedly over-enthusiastic on the cocktails. Incredibly drunk and walking home they suddenly realized they both needed to pee. They were very near a graveyard and one of them suggested they do their business behind a headstone or something. The first woman had nothing to wipe with so she took off her panties, used them and threw them away. Her friend however was wearing an expensive underwear set and didn't want to ruin hers, but was lucky enough to salvage a large ribbon from a wreath that was on a grave and proceeded to wipe herself with it. After finishing, they made their way home.

The next day the first woman's husband phones the other husband and said, "These damn girls nights out have got to stop. My wife came home last night without her panties." "That's nothing," said the other. "Mine came back with a sympathy card stuck between the cheeks of her butt that said, 'From all of us at the Fire Station, Well never forget you!'

0 to 200 in 6 seconds
Bob was in trouble. He forgot his wedding anniversary. His wife was
really pissed.

She told him "Tomorrow morning, I expect to find a gift in the
driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in 6 seconds AND IT BETTER BE THERE !!"

The next morning he got up early and left for work. When his wife woke
up, she looked out the window and sure enough there was a box
gift-wrapped in the middle of the driveway.

Confused, the wife put on her robe and ran out to the driveway, brought
the box back in the house.

She opened it and found a brand new bathroom scale.

Bob has been missing since Friday.

In as much as I appreciate y'all for your comments, the facts still remain. A person irrespective of race is still a person and anyone that makes a conclusion about a race based on a singular incident is making a mockery of all reasoning process. I never have issues with sisters, and I will never stoop to the low level of going out with/rejecting a girl based sorely on their color or race.

waleski:

@poster obviously u dnt knw 1 of d bro code's in nairaland repeat with me NEVER LET your GF,SISTER OR PEEPS KNW your USERNAME ON ANY FORUM OR U ARE FUC.KED.

Not if u got nothing to hide bro. Incase u forget we still have men in this forum. Its not all boys , u know.

tpiah:

the time the guy logged on and started listing the reasons why he doesnt dig nigerian ladies and blah blah blah, he didnt know his filipino girlfriend could dump him then.


just saying.


and are you sure the lady hasnt hooked up with some other nler.

anyway!

my point is you people shouldnt always be in such a hurry to diss your own women just because you find yourselves able to date foreign ones.

doesnt show you in a good light.

I never said I dont dig Nigerian women actually I date girls who are of the good category irrespective of race. And please provide me a single place where I dissed our own women.

derolly:

Hmmm quite predictable
i knw wat am abt to write/say will hurt u bt it remains a fact

I could  still recall vividly when a guy here widely known as a clown 'MOBO44' advised u to give it up on the filipinos that they were international maids
well i guess all hell was let loose on him when he said that, Believe it or not he was right.
I didnt want to add a thing cos i'll probably tell u the same and that would make me appear sarcastic for those who dont understand
I've  got similar experience with a fellow nigerian dudes who undergo the same circular madness and later crumble or come to their senses
look at it this way, Mobo44 virtually detest Black women but on that  thread he gave u an advice that is worth a piece of his integrity ( by asking u to go back home and get a nigerian gurl )u shld have considered. No filipino could be as down-to-earth as a naija lady
well this is a good sign for u to knw she couldn't hack it

[s]Damn it , i wonder what gives some dudes the impression that filipinos are white. [/s]

Some things are so silly that they are not worth responding to.  Sorry but are u now in MOBO'S class of intelligence too?

--190--:

Hehehehehe, so Philippine babes know how 2 dump guyz,

tot they were deaf and dumb~

Am glad u r learning some aspects of human behavior .

chika98:

Yes. I think she did herself a favor because fighting for a man over his family is like losing a battle before you even try to
She made the right choice because you'll def succumb to your family under pressure. I don't blame her.

You could be wrong u know. I wonder how u know me so much to come to this conclusion. I am a man of my own and have never been the type to tow the line. So ur conclusion is definitely reached with an erroneous assumption.

I just did, look at the link in the post before ur post.

rokiatu:

hmmm well let her go. She would have dump you one way or another anyway.


btw can you post the link to the thread you're talking abt?

A married couple was in a terrible accident where the man?s face was severely burned. The doctor told the husband that they couldn?t graft any skin from his body because he was too skinny. So the wife offered to donate some of her own skin. However, the only skin on her body that the doctor felt was suitable would have, to come from her buttocks.

The husband and wife agreed that they would tell no one about where the skin came from, and they requested that the doctor also honor their secret. After all, this was a very delicate matter.

After the surgery was completed, everyone was astounded at the man?s new face. He looked more handsome than he ever had before! A, ll his friends and relatives just went on and on about his youthful beauty!

One day, he was alone with his wife, and he was overcome with emotion at her sacrifice. He said, ‘Dear, I just want to thank you for everything you did for me. How can I possibly repay you?’

‘My darling,’ she replied, ‘I get all the thanks I need every time I see your mother kiss you on the cheek.’

[b]level of stress[/b]:
you give a lift to a beautiful girl, she faints inside ur car and u take her to hospital. Now thats stressful, but @ the hospital they say she is pregnant & congratulate you that u r going to be a father, you say that u r not the father, but the girl says you are. This is getting very stressful, to prove, this u request a DNA test to prove that u r not father, after the tests the doctor says that u are infertile. U are extremely stressed but relieved, on your way back home, you start remembering that u left 3 kids @ home, who the Bleep is their father? NOW THATS STRESS!!!

A young Law student, having failed his Law exam, goes up to his crusty old professor, who is renowned for his razor-sharp legal mind.

Student: "Sir, do you really understand everything about this subject?"

, Professor: "Actually, I probably do. Otherwise I wouldn't be a professor, would I?"

Student: "OK. So I’d like to ask you a question. If you can give me the correct answer, I will accept my marks as it is. If you can't give me the correct answer, however, you'll have to give me an "A".

Professor: "Hmmmm, alright. So what’s the question?"

Student: "What is legal but not logical, logical but not legal, and neither logical nor legal? "

The professor wracks his famous brain, but just can't crack the answer. Finally he gives up and changes the student's failing mark into an "A" as agreed, and the student goes away, very pleased.

The professor continues to wrack his brain over the question all afternoon, but still can’t get the answer. So finally he calls in a group of his brightest students and tells them he has a really, really tough question to answer: "What is legal but not logical, logical but not legal, and neither logical nor legal? "

To the professor's surprise (and embarrassment), all the students immediately raise their hands.

"All right" says the professor and asks his favourite student to answer

"It's quite easy, sir" says the student "You see, you are 75 years old and married to a 30 year old woman, which is legal, but not logical. Your wife has a 22 year old lover, which is logical, but not legal. And your wife's lover failed his exam but you've just given him an "A", which is neither legal, nor logical."

GeeCee:

Dani breakin his fast

That guy wan commit suicide

s.ohiemi:

Lol @ posta,sori for your loss but as a naia boi u for tell am say it was not u usin dat username!

There was no reason to lie over something as trivial as that. But if u ask me what I would do if faced with same decision again, I think I will handle it that same way.

Freewilly:

Give me a freaking break, did you use her name or address when you started the thread ? you not the only Nigerian guy dating a Philippine on Niaraland.

She knows my handle, I use the same name in all the forum I visit. I also use a variation of that in my email so she asked too and I told her its true so there u have it. So get all the info before tearing your clothes.   _{just yanking your chain}

Inked_Nerd:

Look, if she got mad because she saw it then how would she have reacted is she was with your family. This is just an online forum so if she couldn't cut it here then she probably couldn't cut it with your family. I don't think you need to be mad at anyone. It probably wasn't meant to be.

I guess I could look at it that way. I guess I could be in blame for not letting her know the extent of the opposition but I have moved on with my life. I hope to finally get a deserving woman in due time.

daduke2k:

Gurls dnt dump guyz, itz d oda way round. Nw get dat in2 your thick skull

Thats one of the dumbest thing I have heared in like forever.

Sometime ago I posted on here about my Phillipino girlfriend and my problem with my peeps on the issue of marriage. As it happened , my girl read this and realized how this kinda thing will be a stress for her and decided she is not cut out for that kind of wahala. She informed me of this a few weeks ago. Little did I know that she frequents Nairaland and when she saw that posting and some of the responses, she knew then of the magnitude of the problem she faces.
Should I be happy with this forum, my ex or myself for sharing my problem on here?

A lesbian ex co-worker of mine actually asked me to do same with her, long story short , I refused.

5 reasons he didn’t call you
By Evan Marc Katz

When it comes to off-putting dating behavior, men commit plenty of dumb moves. He wears sneakers at a nice restaurant. He goes on and on about his boring job. He asks you pretty much nothing about yourself… and still tries for a good-night kiss at the end of the date (as if). If you find yourself on a date like this, I don’t blame you for passing on another encounter. But what about those cases where the guy does win you over… and yet never calls again? Have you ever stopped to wonder what went wrong? While you might think winning a man’s heart largely boils down to your looks, you’re wrong. Below are five key things that well-intentioned women do that make men bail. Keep them in mind as you search for your Mr. Right.

Reason #1: You talk, but don’t listen
Women are sharers. It’s culturally ingrained. You may talk to your best friend or mom five times a day and think nothing of it. Every detail is relevant, and nothing can be left out in the telling of a story. Problem is, men don’t generally communicate that way. So try to consider the ebb and flow of a normal conversation. If he hasn’t spoken in awhile, ask him a question (and not a vague “So tell me about you,” which will make feel self-conscious and put on the spot). If he’s telling a story, try doing a follow-up query instead of refocusing the spotlight on yourself (“You like to travel? Let me tell you about how I backpacked through the Amazon!”). And if it’s occurred to you that you haven’t yet learned a thing about your date, try listening for a bit. It’s not that we’re not interested in getting to know you, it’s that we’d be thrilled if you were interested in getting to know us, too.

Reason #2: You use conversation as therapy
Talking about your evil ex-boyfriend. Talking about your hatred of your job. Talking about your strained relationship with your mother. It’s not that the bad stuff is irrelevant, it’s that it’s inappropriate. Being negative might be an effective way of winning an election, but it’s not exactly endearing on a date. Even if you feel compelled to touch on such subjects, consider your tone when doing so. And consider how you’d feel if a man were to share his inner turmoil with you too soon.

Reason #3: You’re a little too enthusiastic about him
It’s normal to get excited about a date with potential. It’s normal to consider what kind of husband that date might be. It was also normal to write your grade school crush’s name on the back of your notebook… but you wouldn’t show it to him, would you? Of course not! There’s an unwritten rule in dating that governs the energy flow between a man and a woman: when one party tries too hard, the other party pulls back. If a stranger has ever bought you a costly gift on the first date or called you seven times the day after you had coffee, you know what I mean. We’re not saying you should act cold; just don’t get carried away in front of him. Keep your projections to yourself until you have a better idea whether your affections are reciprocated or not.

Reason #4: Your idea of chit-chat is politics, religion and other heavy topics
So you don’t complain about your ex, your boss or your mom. But you have a bone to pick with the President, the U.N. and the Pope. Hey, if your date is up for a surprise appearance on Meet the Press, that’s cool. Just know that not everybody likes to swim in the deep end of the pool so early. Sometimes, you’re better off sticking with banter about favorite travel spots or good movies or even funny online dates from the past. It’s not that intellectual topics should be off-limits, but until you know where someone lands on the political spectrum, you may want to tread lightly.

Reason #5: You’re not relating to him — you’re testing him
Dating should be fun. Getting to know a fascinating stranger, sharing information about yourself to an interested date… these are the things that keep us optimistic about the process. Where it all goes wrong is when you inadvertently turn him into a defendant and yourself into the prosecuting attorney. “How long was your last relationship?” “Where do you see yourself in two years?” “Do you want kids someday?” The answers to these questions are really important — they may well determine whether you choose to see him again — but great dates do not occur on a hot seat or under a microscope. Try reading between the lines instead of asking him these things point-blank.

I totally identify with this last one. Makes me run like my pants is on fire

Is there any other reason for not calling our ladies? If there are , can u tack it on here so our ladies can better manage the act of dating.

Inked_Nerd:

Oh, I see. No, it wasn't a bad idea. Besides, lots of people are going back to school since the job market had become scarce. So, I guess you're looking for a job now?

Yup career change u may call it

Inked_Nerd:

No. Why would you say its bad? By the way, congratulations on your completion of school

I mean d economic situation. Thanks tho d graduation has been a long time coming
