You are to blamed or responsible for what cowry has done by channelling all investment into one pool. You are always promoting trustbanc here displaying/ comparing their daily rate with other fund managers, there by sending heavy traffic of investors to their platforms. Cowries realized this and decided to invest for people instead of allowing them to go to Trustbanc directly through their platform. New investors must go to Trustbanc platform directly which is a bit of challenge or not as easy as accessing via cowrywise. Creditalerts, you do this one, you nor try at all. You just cast the ease of accessing trustbanc via cowrywise. Creditalerts: I know they are separate entities ,my point is knowledge based on financial management/matters.

I stay in one-man village after mararaba. From my area to the express is quite a distance on it own. But nawa for you, you're concerned that l exaggerated TP. A lady suggested we meet at ShopRite, so she could size me up whether l would meet her standard or not, is not serious to get your attention but the transport fare l spent on the day? Honestly, l wonder does life actually revolve around money?

Thank you, comments like yours here, help to make one better. Mcslize: My people perish due to lack of knowledge. The worse mistake you will ever make as a man is trying to please a woman.
Don't try to do too much.
That's one of the things I did in my twenties. But I am now in my late 30th.
Even as simple as I am, ladies still feel intimidated around me. I have to always bring myself to their levels and act like their mates to be able to roll with them.
If you misbehave, I will scold you. I won't pet you for acting nonsensical. As a man, don't reward bad attitudes with goodwill. If you do, just know that you are building a monster that will devour you later. |

Lol, l won't join you to curse anyone. Life happens. I have not been doing well financially, hence l have stayed away from women for a long time now.

So a man that earn 100k in a month is less than a man? He should just commit suicide. He shouldn't interact or relate with the opposite sex. I'm not going into crime to impress anyone. You have no slightest idea about the struggle so l don't blame you. You might not be more intelligent, you might not have graduated with better result than me . Time and chance happened to us all. Life and Nigeria happens. But then, l 've resolved not to be depressed. I shall emerge stronger and better spiceadole: You are whyning and feeling pained cos you didn't have the chance to sleep with her on top of your 6200 that she ate. Lol If you had succeeded, you wouldn't have been calling or texting her. She would have been the one trying to communicate while you will avoid avoid her, feeling like a King Kong.
Your gender people keep bragging on social media that they don't need women but I'm surprised that a man who earns just 100k in a whole month is looking for a woman. For what exactly? |

Noted, thank you. I appreciate your input Astonmartin: Honestly once a lady likes you, it'll been seen in her actions even when she's trying to conceal her feelings. How was the date with? did she ask you why you ordered for only Schweppes ? Was she free with you and constantly engaging in good conversation with you ? Or were you the one doing all the talking while she was busy munching down the food and busy with her ?
Back to the main deal, I think you are good man and wants the best for her but I believe now is the time for you to sit back and let nature take its course. If she really loves you and would like to take it to the next level, it is now left for her to work for it, probably show you some positive signs and make things a little easier for you.
Limit your call/texting times with her, if she puts in the efforts of regularly checking on you, then you are good to go. Always remember you are the man, the pride and you definitely she be putting yourself first before any woman you're planning to date because she's never doing you any much favor just being in a relationship with you |

God bless you, appreciate M capnies: My brother, you said your salary is only 100k monthly, and in one move you've spent 15k, what is remaining, I would advise you to back out from the rubbish this world glorifies and focus on yourself. Imagine saving 15k monthly in another account, by December you'll have 180k in your account plus little interest, do that for another 3 years you'll have 720k, enough to start something or even learn a professional skill.
The greatest problem we have as men is not sitting back and reflecting, by the time you develop yourself in five years time from that little salary, the standard you talked about that you're not up to will become history.
Follow God's advise it is for our own good.
Wish you the best |
Romance › Re: Is There A Red Flag Here Already? by Coolis(op): 6:31pm On Feb 09 |
The truth is, income of 100k isn't a huge one. One is only being prudent in spending. And no, I'm not stinging. I actually called her 3 times after l got to my place last Saturday to ask her if she had a great time and if we could do it again soon. I'm willing to give/spend on her according to my strength and ability. l only want to be sure she's into me as much as l'm into her, that's all. NotOfThisWorld: Which one is "l realized she doesn't like typing much words so she doesn't give out enough information about herself". What sorta excuse of denial is this? If you've been communicating or attempting to communicate with someone you met last year and they're barely responding to your or your questions, then they're not interested or might be in another relationship already, which means you should stop wasting your time and move on.
Which one is "I ate well from my house so as not to order their food.... I also thought that someone coming out for a date at an eatery by 3pm, would have eaten from their house and wouldn't order food but light refreshment like a snack and bottle of soft drink but l was wrong". If you're taking someone out on a date and it's you who asked them out and the person suggested a restaurant, then you should have enough money for both of you to eat! You saying you ate well from your house and thought she would've also eaten from her house is rubbish. If you're broke or cheap, then just say that instead of talking nonsense. Of course, she should also have her own money, but if you're taking someone out, as the man who did the asking, it should be YOU who pays. She didn't even order much; she ordered fried rice with fish and a bottle of coke, which came to N6200. That's just $4.57 USD and 5.47 CAD. So that was too much for you to spend and to the extent that you couldn't order anything for yourself but a bottle of Schweppes for 1K? You seem like a cheapo or a miser. If I were her, I wouldn't pick up your call again either. I'm not saying someone should be on a date with you and be ordering expensive food but what she ordered wasn't costly and if you can't afford that, then you've no business taking anyone out on a date.
BOTH of you are red flags. It's likely that she wasn't interested from the get-go, while you are a cheapo/miser/stingy somebody anyway. |

Okay, thank you. I intend to get things right and not to make another mistake. Your advice is appreciated verminnel: Take this from a female , she isnt interested in u and her reason for coming on that date was just to measure u up.sad but its the truth. U spending roughly 6k on a date isnt something u should be whining about .she was even very considerate ordering just a plate of rice,fish and a bottle of coke.U initiated the date and she showed up . U may be a nice guy but she doesnt see anything working between u both hence the nonchallance from her. After the date not even a " Thank You"?Big red flag stop hoping on another date except maybe u want to be santa.Dont be a simp bro!!! |

Thank you ReacherSaidNoth: Match energy.
If you're the one always reaching out and texting first, disembark. When you perceive low interest from a woman, it is not a signal to put more effort. Respect yourself and refuse to be a slave to emotions. A woman who likes you will suffocate you with attention and affection.
Unfortunately, the dating scene is filled with dragons and parasites out to drain you and give nothing of value in return. |
Romance › Re: Is There A Red Flag Here Already? by Coolis(op): 6:11pm On Feb 09 |
Okay, thanks. Kobojunkie: You were interested in her? I didn't get that at all from your post. It read more like you were trying to conquer her while spending just enough from what you typed up there. You entire OP reads more like a Nairaland how-it-went for someone who took tips from one of the toxic characters in this section. Those tips only work on hookup gals and not on real dates. 🥱🥱
By the way, leave this gal alone if she already rejected you. Like you, women want men who are interested in them, not trying to rest or size them up while hyperfocused on nickle-and-diming their interactions.🥱🥱
When you want to date someone, your mind needs to be interested in the person and not how much the person should spend or not spend or your money. Think carefully about that for next time. Maybe you should consider dating someone who is well within your bracket. Someone who will not mind mama put instead of an expensive joint, etc. 🥱🥱 |

Okay. Thank you ILoveFaith: If I get the right understanding of things, you're the one trying to fix things. Trying to make out/up. You didn't even care about welfare. All you were asking is about yourself and something to oil your ego as if she's a wife. You barely just know her. Give this things time. Do you know if she's seen a ton of people like you who turn out to be people that's not worth the time? Stay different and you'll get different response |
Romance › Re: Is There A Red Flag Here Already? by Coolis(op): 4:02pm On Feb 09 |
Thank you. I admitted been a bit hasty, but then, the distance l covered for the date last Saturday, was far more than hers. If she was the one that reached out first one the night to find out if l arrived home safely, the heaven wouldn't have fell. I tried several times to reach her, she didn't answer. Why didn't she send a message to me first to acknowledge the missed calls? Why waiting until l sent before she replied? Look at it from both sides na. ILoveFaith: You're immature to say the least. If she ever dates you, she wouldn't be her normal self anymore cos you'd want every loyalty tied to you. Sure signs of a weakling. She was unto people before she ever met you. Why do you feel so special?. Instead of letting things rhyme and even care about welfare, you're nagging |
Romance › Re: Is There A Red Flag Here Already? by Coolis(op): 3:03pm On Feb 09 |
Yeah, l already did that but if you love and care about someone, giving to them shouldn't be a problem. For those of us that are of the Christian faith, it's biblical to Give. John 3:16 For God so love that He gave. Love and giving go hand in hand. Thank you MONEY247: Anytime I see guys giving ladies money as per relationship...
It breaks me..... I have never and will never give any lady money... As per romantic relationship... Except I am comfortable with you and the lady has spent on me...

How man go do now? Sometimes, it's wisdom to behave like a SIMP to get what one want. Thank you brain54: I don't know if it's a red flag or not...
I just want to comment that men dey suffer o. After spending your hard earned but scarce resources you are still the one calling her to ask if she enjoyed her day and if she could do it again sometime. Do it again sometime like come and chop my hard earned scarce resources again 
Na you dey beg her to come spend your money be that. 
Back to the question I know I said I wasn't sure if it was red flag or not but on second thought. I think it is.
After eating Free meal she didn't even call to say thank you.
Use one eye dey look her for now! |

You are hard on me but l can understand. Not trying to paint her in a bad light. Still very much interested in her. I will take your points to mean there's no red flag yet. Thank you Kobojunkie: A women is not a toy but a living breathing entity exactly like you. The only difference is that she has a different plumbing system than you do. That is all. 🥱🥱
Reading this post of yours, I will recommend that girl never contact you again because all it shows is that you are not ready to date anyone at all. How can you say you are wanting to date anyone only for you to hyper focus on the mundane and not on what matters which is supposedly chemistry between the two of you? 🥱🥱
If that girl had come concerned only about how much she would obtain from you, would you consider her sensible? 🥱🥱 |

uote author=gunners160 post=138412994] First and foremost, I would advice u not to start reading meanings to all her actions yet. Give r a second trial. Besides it is just the first date. However, dont spend on r. Just leave it at phone call and texting. Avoid unecessary date for now. If there must be any date, invite r tover to ur place instead. Just believe she went for a programme for now. She might be saying the truth and might also be lying.[/quote] |

Thank you, so what do you suggest now? Should l still try things out to how it goes or l should just move on? I already apologized to her that if she acted just in time to get back to me that she missed my calls, l wouldn't have concluded our meeting meant nothing to her. lilvicky68: You should not have sent her that kind of message. If you call and she didnt pick, what you should have sent was Hope you've gotten home, just checking in.
She should be the one to tell you if she enjoyed the date or not.
I dont also fancy the idea of spending 15% of your income on one date. |
Romance › Is There A Red Flag Here Already? by Coolis(op): 1:03pm On Feb 09 |
Been hearing of red flag, don't know if there is one here already.
Met this lady toward the end of last year in Maraba area of Nasarawa state. I reside in one-man villagers area of Nasarawa state while she reside in the lokogoma area in the FCT. We 've been chatting. l realized she doesn't like typing much words so she doesn't give out enough information about herself. l decided we meet physically again last Saturday so we can get to know more about each other and that l would be coming to her area. I asked her to send me the address of where she stays in the FCT but she suggested we meet at one of the eateries in their area which l agreed. She suggested ShopRite in Apo/lokogoma area and l said okay.
NOTE- 1, l like her a lot. 2, my income is about 100k in a month. 3, To and fro one-man village to lokogoma area in the FCT using public transport will take 5k or more.
I had about 15k on the day which l thought could take care of my TP and what she would eat. I knew eating out at ShopRite would be quite expensive than the regular eateries like Chicken republic and the likes.
I cut my coat according to my size. We agreed to meet at ShopRite by 3pm but l decided to get there earlier by 2pm to find out their food and snacks prices. Meat pie and a bottle of soft drink N2500. Fried/jollof rice with a drink N6200.
I ate well from my house so as not to order their food. I also thought that someone coming out for a date at an eatery by 3pm, would have eaten from their house and wouldn't order food but light refreshment like a snack and bottle of soft drink but l was wrong. After a while of my friend joining me, l told her let's go to the service desk so she could make her order. Without hesitation, she told them she wanted fried rice with fish and a bottle of coke N6200. The moment l was told of her bill which must be settled before the food is given to her, l decided not to order anything at all but on a second thought, l asked they add one bottle of Schweppes(1k) for me. I know you will call me a SIMP here but it's better only her eat than the both of us to eat which would have taken all the money in my pocket and going back to my area a serious challenge.
When we were done at ShopRite, at our departure point, she was joining along taxi to her area, l gave 1k to her to settle the taxi man, she didn't want to take it but l insisted and she accepted it.
Now, here's is why l asked if there is already a Red flag.
I told her l would call her in the evening of the day, the l idea was to find out if she had a great time and if we could do it again soon. I called her around 7:30pm twice, the phone rang but no response. I called again around 9:45pm still no response. Then l sent a message to her on watsapp that it looks like l didn't measure up to her standard and that l couldn't believe she didn't answer all calls l put across to her. I told her it seems our meeting meant nothing to her.
After a few minutes later, she replied me that she went for a program that lasted more than she thought. That was why she couldn't answer. I replied her that she should have sent a message acknowledging my missed calls and l wouldn't have insinuated our meeting meant nothing to her. I haven't reached out to her since then and haven't heard from her either. Men and brethren, you have it all. What do you think? Is there a red flag yet? Should l still reach out and maintain contact or to forget her? Thank you |

Cowrywise is charging little or nothing to process fund unlike others. I have been enriching Palmpay without realizing it. To process 1 million, Palmpay has been charging me 10k to take my fund to ARM platform. I took 1.2 to Trustbanc via cowrywise this morning and cowry only charged me N250.
