bigFOOTcaveMAN: Many parts of Nigeria has always been under unofficial BH since the North decided to experiment with political Sharia law implementation in a country with many other religion. Its no news, the only difference is that sharia is now being put to action by Shekau himself(a non political entity). The difference between a Sani Yerima and Shekau is the former was once a governor and currently a senator, while the latter is not. I see no difference at all. Or the North doesnt want sharia anymore |

Ishilove: Okudaya...
These things happen on a daily basis. Early last year, we were registering students for a new term when we were jolted by a ruckus near the admin block. The parent of one of the students had fainted and she was being revived. What happened? A colleague of mine, I will call her Mrs A, took ill during the yuletide period and died a few days to Christmas. Mrs A was well loved by staff, students and parents alike, so when we got the news it was quite shocking and devastating for everybody. Mrs A, being a muslim, was buried before resumption of the new term, so what we the staff members came to meet was a notice of her obituary on the school walls. It was this notice that the parent who fainted saw, while her child the student wept beside her.
When the lady was revived, what she told us chilled everyone to their bone marrows and had the catholics in our midst making the sign of the cross.
On the 30th of December, she was driving her daughter, our student, home from a function when she saw Mrs A walking on the side of the road, dressed in white and cream Iro and buba and gele. She stopped her vehicle, exchanged pleasantries with Mrs A and offered her a lift. Mrs A had smiled and declined, insisting that she was almost at her destination. When the parent was about to drive off, Mrs A admonished the woman's daughter to always be focused in life and wished her well in all her endeavours. The parent thanked her, wished her a happy new year in advance and drove off.
At this point in the narration,the student chipped in that after her mother drove off, she had looked back and noticed that Mrs A stood on the road and kept on waving at them until they were out of her line of sight.
When school resumed, the parent saw Mrs A's obituary notice at the entrance of the admin block. Shocked, she moved closer to read the notice and was further horrified when she saw the date of death. The day of death was a few days to christmas. It was at this point that the poor woman fainted.
Goose pimples popped out all over my body.
I've been hearing tales like the OP for a very long time. This world is a mystery and the things we cannot see are much more than the things we can.  |

Matthewbriggs: LOL It is a common problem for introverts we communicate better with written words than spoken words. For example talking use to be exhausting for me, but my fingers could type at the speed of light. So I understand your plight. Infact a very large percentage of very active people online ... are introverts and less social.
But what I did to overcome this is exactly what I advised you earlier.
For example, I took practical steps ... like making a decision to cut down the level on my e-engagement on all forums and social media platforms ... I now hardly chat or respond to pings. I instead visit or call a person if I need to communicate with them.
I made an active decision to spend more time building offline relationships and communicating with people I care about face to face ... I try to know them, listen to them, hear them vent, share their pains, joys and sorrows with me, I do same to them. I sometime challenge my self to start conversations and build my ability to sustain them.
I am beginning to learn to and enjoy small talk ... something I hated. Sometimes It can be very emotionally exhausting, that why I do take my time to recharge.
Right now I am hybrid, I can communicate with written words at the same time I am rock star when it comes to spoken words. I find it easy to connect with people around me.
The fact is you are not alone, Everyone has an introverted and extroverted side ... with one more dominant that the other. To be a balanced individual it is important to put the dominant side in check, as you the develop and improve on the less dominant part.
I believe you can work on this weakness just as I did, because as you can see one key trend we can notice in the relationships of these happily married men that have graced this thread ... Is the level of communication and rappor they've built with their wives. Communication is the most principal thing in any relationship, It is a great deciding factor in regards to the success of any relationship. this is just awesome. Thanks so much. |

xynerise: Taking care of the kids is OUR responsibility and a priority especially during adolescent stage. There are things she ought to do to the kids that she doesn't, but I do them willingly. I don't get fascinated or envy the public stunt some guys do online by posting "hilarious" pictures of them feeding, bathing or wiping a baby's poop just to get the compliments from the opposite sex .
Anyways I enjoy doing the nursing with her oh good.and you even enjoy it too. That's awesome. Anyway i think I understand why those guys post those pictures. For the benefit of those who think it is unnatural for men to contribute in nurturing their kids. |

crackhaus: Who's gonna open the thread for happily married women to answer some questions we have for them so the unmarried feminists can learn from?
Too many women here have expressed views that I know for sure can't be how their homes are run, very strong views. Some have said they don't come home after work to cook, others have insisted they can make decisions independent of their husband's consent - some don't need to take permission for anything.
The young and unmarried need to know how a wife should act.
Any takers?
All in a bid to foster unity in the family section on the true way most Nigerian marriages are run, of course... help us na. Na woman open this thread to learn guys mind. You can return d favor  |

xynerise: Signing up.... question for you xy. I know you're a hands-on and devoted father. But are there times when you feel like it is your wife's duty to take care of the kids? Like you are only helping her or doing her a favor by contributing to child care? Some men say they don't do such things because once they start,their wives begin to see it as their normal duty and begin to take it for granted. But I'm wondering since the kids are both yours,should a man expect to always be begged to or thanked for taking care of his kids too ? (I know appreciating one's spouse is very important.thats by the way.) But have you had any reason to feel like you're doing your wife's job by engaging in child care? |
