That why “tHe wEst is FemiNizeD” according to SOME of them with their very low IQs. Just because there’s a modicum of accountability holding them just a tiny bit responsible for the children they created.

Really?
ask those of your fellow guys who are always talking about girls leaving them (responsible men) to follow irresponsible men and see what the perceived difference is.
The girls left them for someone with more money. Therefore they are the responsible guys and the richer ones are irresponsible. EVERY.SINGLE.TIME!

Once the man is well to do, he’s irresponsible and the girl loves him for his money. If he kills jet, she deserves it for leaving all the responsible (broke men) that came for her hand.

But when the broke one beats her and cheats on her and they’ll call her a good woman for tolerating it. She’s a wife material who stuck through thick and thin. Na who no know dem grin

who doesn’t know that? With all of y’all’s “men are providers “ internet rant. We know that in real life women provide too.
Romance › Re: Why Do Most Ladies End Up With Irresponsible Guys? by cococandy(f):
“Responsible men” is what poor men call themselves. A way to console themselves when other well-to-do men are getting wives and they are not. Of course they blame women instead of the capitalist system they created that places money above everything else.

Please how is $10k equivalent to #300k?
When the person earning $10k can easily save #300k (and much more) after their expenses? How much is $500 again in naira? If someone earning $10k/month can’t saved $500, what are they doing with their finances? Una just dey talk anyhow
EzeNdigboONE:
How is this an issue?

WHAT IS THE MINIMUM WAGE THERE ?

Some that earns 10,000 dollars in a month there, which is approximately 7m is the same class as someone who earn 300k here.


Nigerian is blessed with cursed leaders.

It’s a generalization. If it doesn’t apply to you, then that’s fine. It doesn’t change the truth that some of those people who want them to disclose their journey are only interested in finding something negative to say about it. That you’re not one of those amongst them doesn’t mean I’m wrong.

CountVersailles:
How in the world did you conclude that "some of you" want to use it to diminsh the process? Don't go off on a limb making assumptions about me, cos I clearly can't see the need for that. You are making it obvious already that you can hardly proceed from a rational perspective with your thoughts.

If anything, the point I made is that the correct attribution to scientific success should be made, not supernatural success. There's nothing to wax spiritual about in a clearly scientific process that took the genius of the doctor and all the healthcare providers involved in the process. Let's make that very clear.

Who cares about busy bodies? And who says they'll never exist regardless what the couples say? Let's what true and right be said about how the babies happened. It was a clear and straightforward IVF procedure, not a miracle!
Family › Re: Why Do Couples Who Haven't Given Birth For Years Finally Gives Birth To Twins? by cococandy(f):
CountVersailles:
Nobody is saying IVF is a sin. That's not the point. The point is that if it is through IVF, let the world know. Others can benefit from that information. It is not here that people make it seem like IVF is hush hush. It is actually those church couples who do it hush hush and tell nobody. Next thing you see them in church and they start saying it's a miracle. It's not a miracle. It's pure and simple science.
They don’t need to let the world know, because, some of you that are curious to know only want to know so that you can use it to diminish their child bearing process, not because you’re trying to learn something new. There’s no adult in this world that hasn’t heard of IVF or how to inquire about it.

That being said I used to (and still very much) hold the opinion that people should stop attributing scientifically explainable phenomenon to the supernatural. That might make it seem like I’m on the side of those who think they should announce their IVF journey to the world. But knowing how some people’s minds work and their need to diminish the happiness of others, I say let them keep their process private if they so wish. The busy bodies just want to know so they can say something negative about the children and the couple

“My friend” is a Japanese guy that I hired to hardscape my backyard so he threw in the his gardening skills as a bonus. I’m afraid nothing is free in this life. grin

Please I’ll need all your help with vegetable gardening. Apologize in advance for all the mentions you’ll be getting from me.
1stGenAmerican:
I’m happy that you have such a great friend who helped but I’m so jealous! Your flowers are nothing short of spectacular and look so robust. All
Of them. You have a reason to boast!
I buy marigolds already bloomed yearly and live in a zone conducive to growing them but those guys wither as soon as I place them in the ground. embarassed
The Knockout Roses grow well as long as I give them epsom salt but besides those guys, Sunflowers are the only flowers I see success with. I’m a wizard at growing veggies though, especially from scraps so we’ll have to help eachother out.

That is the socialization that is aimed at sustaining learned hopelessness in women, portraying how terrible it is "outside", that they are better off enduring whatever pain their marriage is causing them.
Wish more women would realize this.

That’s never the goal or an accomplishment. Why do you people stay obsessed with the marital status of women?
elipheleh:
Sis. If you divorce him. You are now a single mother. And you do not have one iota of idea the things single mothers pass through in this Nigeria plus economy.

Do you wish to remarry?

Will you tell the new man about your new child?

Will you expect him to take care of her or even buy her shishi or house her?

Will he now accept your own baby seeing it's not his responsibility?

Will you hide your baby on first date? Won't that be a betrayal to the new guy too? Exactly how another betrayed you?

Do you have an idea how much baggage single mothers are? Do you know how much men run away from them?

Will you remain single for life?

Will you start begging to come back if things get better for this man. And he now can afford a maid?

Will he accept you?

Will he see you as good wife?

When if you remarry and your new husband hears about the reason you left your first husband. Will he judge you right? Are you a dependable wife? What will he think of you?


IF YOU KNOW WHAT IS GOOD FOR YOU JUST PRAY AND CONTINUE PRAYING FOR FINANCIAL SUCCESS IN YOUR HOME. NOT DIVORCE.

are you on tiktok?
There’s this popular forager that I follow and she teaches how to forage almost anywhere . I find it fascinating even though I have never actually tried it. If you are on Titktok maybe you should see if she has some ideas for you. Her name is Alexis Nikole

wowcatty:
If that child was her own, she won't take care of him or her? It's called selfless service and it's incovenient but rewarding. Have you thought about maybe she is carrying one just like that and God wants to see how she would accept this one and then use that to change it for good in her favor?
kollinz1234:
you are pregnant and you don't know what you will give birth to, yet you want to leave your husband not because he didnt tell you that he had a child out of wedlock but because you can't cope with the child. Karma is a very wicked bitch.
You leave that man's house, don't be surprised at what you will give birth to.

Shallom
Le2money:
U lack knowledge and sense bro. Because the child has one illness now and she wants to go, does it means the child in her womb is purely free? Do to others what u want others to do for you in ur presence and absence. The only thing they are do here is to have the guy's mother to come live with them for her to be assisting. Face your problems and never run away from it ...that's always my blv
you people are so weird

1stGenAmerican:
Those roses are beautiful and tasty looking. I only have knockout roses which I don’t think are safe for consumption. Do you know where I can buy a plant of this variety here in the states, please? Is this plant difficult to maintain? I must have one! shocked
I’m glad you asked cos I love to talk about flowers cheesy
I bought mine from green acres.
Search “green acres . com” to see if there’s one near you. If not, Home Depot and the super Walmarts sometimes have robust garden sections depending on the area.

It’s not hard to maintain as long as the initial set up is done properly. connect a drip system and initial fertilizer to make sure it establishes well. Then all you have to do is make sure the water stays on a schedule and waters automatically that way you won’t worry when you forget to water it. You also have to check the type that will survive in the climate where you are. And yes the roses can be dehydrated for later use. Even in your skincare.

I won’t lie, someone helped me with the initial set up.
But I’m learning and soon plan to start a vegetable gardening.


He helped me plant different varieties.
Light Purple and dark purple dahlias
Red Floribunda roses
Red tea roses
Yellow tea roses
Yellow floribunda roses
White Lincoln roses
African Marigolds and more

Look at a few of my flowers . I’m so happy

Be like the guy just enter yankee. Na mostly stingy & low income earners dey use laundromat wash basic things for yankee. Most people have washing machine, dryer and even dishwasher in their house. OP go still make am with time.
he said he lives in an apartment. From what I’ve been made to understand, many apartments don’t have those heavy duty machines available for their residents. It’s not a matter of just entering yankee. I don’t think he’s a newcomer like that. Even if you live in the apartment for 20 years, you have no choice but to find a public laundromat for your big stuff I guess.

But when you buy or rent your own house, you can get a bigger washer for your larger stuff.

Did their wives suddenly dump a special needs child in their laps for them to care for 24/7?

I don’t know why on earth some of you guys think that a woman having had sexual relationships in past AKA y’all’s definition of a previous wayward life (insert eye roll) is the equivalent of every other kind of bad thing there is on earth.


MALIGNANTGuest:
What if I told you that I know 2 MALE Nairalanders whose wives kept such similar information from during dating years yet these Guys didn't serve their treacherous wives QUIT notice...

One confided in me that he had to continue with the marriage after he had realized the woman he married has got a lot of Good tidings to offer & hasn't got much terrible side.

U LADIES always think MEN are perpetually at fault. It can only be a Man or a MAN, nothing else.
MOST MARRIED MEN keep mute in marriages and allow it to ride smoothly not because they haven't gotten a clue of their wife's past or terrible health conditions which arose from previous wayward life styles. It always easier for LADIES to announce their problems to the world through platforms especially when a man is at fault.

I can bet you, IF most married men in Nigeria start opening up, the collapse of Nigeria will only be a child's play to what will befall many homes.

Please shut up !
Blessedmercy8:
What's the deceit there?

Ok, agreed the man didn't tell her but did she at anytime ask the man if he had a child somewhere and the man denied it? No! So no case here.

Shes just wants to have her cake and eat it. Shes not willing to sacrifice or support her spouse. The man is also having a hard time and needs her support but no, she's only concerned about herself alone. she's just being self-centered.

There's nothing like deceit. She should learn to ask questions in her dealings with people next time. I guess she got carried away by what she was enjoying then and never bothered to do the needful.

See don’t even get me started on the fire service system. They have a whole office and employees but not one fire truck in sight. At least the fire service station in my area didn’t have one before I left . Hopefully it’s different now. Now what are the employees supposed to be doing at work?
You can’t even call them when there’s an emergency.
