Business and money not war with Russia, that is what the Democrats are missing one of the reasons why they are losing
elections.
The rail will be beneficial to both countries for now... But, it might be a great problem in the future when diplomatic ties break down.

Sorry about what this has caused you and your family.

You need a lawyer on this matter. Search for a law chamber around you and walk in there. You get a lawyer who will be willing to represent you with an agreement that he will get a precentage of any funds recovered.

Nairaland General › Re: On A General Note, I'm Just Sick And Tired Of Life. by dawnomike(m): 4:53pm On Oct 17, 2025
Brahamimo:
I'm seriously tired of life. I won't lie.

My strength has been exhausted already.

Nothing looks good to me anymore.

People are not nice. Even when you try to be Good to People, they still hurt you.

Everyone, including your family members, just want to rip you off. They only like you because of what they are benefiting from you.

Life itself is extremely Tough, harsh and cruel to the Have-nots and disadvantaged ones.

Having a soft heart doesn't help either. People take advantage of you.

You're having a challenge and nobody wants to help, but when you're out of same challenge, they come back acting as if they love you.

Everything about life irritates me right now. I am overthinking things and it has resulted in a daily Headache on one part of my head. I feel sick. I look unhappy due to the challenges I'm passing through.

My chest pains me

Sorry about that... Life is most unfair to the kindhearted.

Keep keeping on all the same.

Faith20j:
Good afternoon everyone,am an undergraduate,and I would love to go into business.what business can I get into with the sum of fifty thousand naira.
It all depends on your location.
If you're in lagos, go to Balogun market where they sell male wristwatches and shirts. Take good pictures, post them on Facebook marketplace and jiji.
Collect the contract of the sellers... when people order from you call the sellers to know if the products are available, add your profit to the markup and sell!!!

You can also do that for cars, perfumes, Ladies wigs etc.

Family › Re: Have You Ever Caught Your Parents When Having Sex? by dawnomike(m): 7:12am On Oct 16, 2025
showboy2301:
Yesterday, I ran into an old friend at the bar. We hadn’t seen each other in years, so we caught up for a bit. He doesn’t come around much these days since he got married and moved to a neighboring town with his wife.

He’s about 40 years old now and the youngest in his family. Back in the day, he loved surprising everyone — even his friends — and we shared a lot of fun childhood memories together.

Yesterday, he decided to surprise his parents. Now that all their children are married and out of the house, his parents live alone. He wanted to show up unannounced and make them happy.

But things didn’t exactly go as planned.

When he got to their house, instead of knocking or calling, he just pushed the door open and walked in. And right there — to his absolute shock — he saw something he wishes he could unsee: his parents, clearly enjoying their private time as a couple.

The same way he barged in was the same way he ran out. He rushed straight to the bar to drown the memory with a drink. We laughed, and I told him next time he should at least call or let them know before visiting — people at that age still value their privacy, maybe even more!

He even said, half laughing and half traumatized, that they were in the middle of a doggy-style position.

What will you do if you were in his shoes?
Unfortunately, what has been seen cannot be unseen... He needs to apologize to his parents for that.

ChildOfDoom:
I am considering regulating my bad acts to once after completion of a seven days cycle. Hopefully, I can keep to this seven days cycle of abstinence from my seven most challenging addictions, before I resume it again. This would be a weekly routine I will update you guys of.

I hope to use movies, social media, work and music/dancing to fight these addictions during this time. My greatest challenge will be womanising, pepsi, junk patronage (pig meat, suya, assorted buying etc) soapy and betting.

I am happy I did not visit a brothel close by yesterday, despite the urge. I used the money for some basic things at home, like prepaid card loading, 1kg gas filing & support for food.


14th OCTOBER, 2025

Day 1 - diaflux overdose free

Day 1 - junk free (hopefully not more than 3 pieces of meat a day - one per meal)

Day 2 - betting free

Day 4 - womanising free

Day 1 - overdose of pepsi free (not more than one a day)

Day 2 - soapy free

Day 2 - borrowing free
I wish you the very best in your resolution...

Romance › Re: My Marriage Is In Crisis, The Anger Of An Unhappy Wife by dawnomike(m): 5:29pm On Oct 12, 2025
dipset01:
I honestly feel very frustrated and just need to get this off my chest. I now understand what people mean when they say, “Don’t marry the wrong spouse.” Brethren, I think I may have gotten this one wrong.

My wife and I have been married for seven years. I was 28 when we got married, and she was 22. In the beginning, things were fine, but along the line, the marriage became increasingly challenging. From early on, intimacy was an issue. She often refused sex, saying she was tired. To reduce tension, I limited my request to once a week — usually Saturday mornings — even though I would have liked more.
She also didn’t cook regularly. I complained several times, especially since I covered about 95% of food and household expenses. Eventually, I got tired of complaining. When we moved to lagos from portharcourt, She once told me she didn’t feel loved and wanted me to do more house chores and take her out more. I tried to adjust — suggested she hired a maid, helped around the house, and made an effort to take her out when possible. Lagos life can be very busy, but I did what I could. Every year for the past four years, I made sure we lodged in a 4- or 5-star hotel for a few days as a couple. She went on vacation to dubai 2 years ago. But she often said I was doing it “for the family (children), not for her.” That she wants her own treatment.


At one point, after a serious conflict, I took her to her father’s house and told him that we didn’t love each other anymore. During the mediation, she played the victim at first, crying. But when her father tried to correct her, she suddenly became defensive and started yelling — even at him. Her father was shocked and had to calm the situation. He later told us something that stuck with me: “You two talk, but you don’t communicate.” Since then, I’ve tried to improve our communication, but it feels like my wife has given up on the marriage.

In the past year, things have gotten worse. Any small thing I say seems to anger her. She interprets normal conversations as arguments and shuts down. I have become conscious of it and tell her not to raise her voice and try to match her voice tone. She’s not open to resolving conflicts. I honestly believe she no longer loves me — she resents me. She gets angry easily, often over nothing. We barely talk deeply anymore. Most of our conversations are shallow. I try to initiate discussions, but she’s either uninterested, on her phone, or just cold.

She no longer sleeps in the same bed with me, claiming back and neck pain. I’ve offered to buy a new mattress or switch beds, but she’s not interested. As a result, our sex life has deteriorated — we’re down to about once in three weeks, and even that comes with tension. Even to approach her now comes with alot of hesitation and fear of rejection. Recently, when I tried to be intimate, she got angry, accused me of hurting her breast, even though she was the one preventing me, she then walked away. That led to another quarrel. It’s extremely frustrating to feel rejected repeatedly, especially after weeks of restraint.

Even minor things turn into big arguments. For example, I once told her not to pour water into the griller after cooking because it could cause rust. Her reaction was explosive — she shouted that she’d never wash the oven again and that I should do it myself, going forward. I felt asked was she was yelling. I tried to calmly explain, but she kept escalating, I must wash it, if she cooks the food, i must wash the burner. It dawned on me that she no longer sees or appreciates what I do in the house. Despite being the main provider, I still handle more than 50% of household chores — I wash dishes, vacuum, clean toilets, take the boys to school, iron everyone cloth etc. She mainly cooks, bathes the kids, and does laundry. I told her I do as much chores and she is in no position to dictate to me, no big deal in washing the burner but she needs to be polite. And she should not take me doing chores for granted, I am just supporting her. We both work from home so there is no stress of commuting to work etc

She acts like she’s disgusted by me. She avoids sitting near me, doesn’t want me to touch her, and even turns her face away when I try to kiss her. If she is sitting on a chair, if i come sit on that chair she will use style and go to the room. It is either my mouth smells or my tummy is big. I am relative fit, not a 6 packs man o. I go just swallow these things. Nothing wrong in feedback, but the way and manner she gives it is not fine. Never ever body shamed her. One day she told me, sabi I was almost calling of the marriage while we were engaged, why did I marry her? I was shocked. It was something I didnt remember doing. It just shocks me to know how unforgiving a woman can be, and what goes through their mind.

When I try to talk things through, she ignores me or gives cold replies. I’ve even sent messages on WhatsApp just to get through to her — she either ignores them or replies with things like, “You win.” We don’t walk together anymore — she either walks ahead or rushes off.

One day I even begged her to forgive and forget whatever I might have done, even if I didn’t know what it was. But things only seem to get worse. We relocated to the UK last year, and I thank God I have a good job that helps me support the home. Honestly, I feel that’s the only reason she’s still around. My spirit tells me that if I ever lose this job, I might lose my home too. Or she is just waiting for the kids to be of age.

I’ve tried to make things better — bought her gifts (including a Samsung S24 for her birthday), taken her and the kids to the cinema, arcade, amusement park, and more. She enjoys these things, but there’s no real change. Even told her to tell me what she wants. The only area I think I need to still work on is the pray more with the family. She says she wants me to pray more with her and the children. I admit it an area I need to work on.

No one is perfect, neither am I or expecting my wife to be. I know I’m a good husband and a great father, But it feels like she’s emotionally checked out. Divorce is never in my mind because I come from a Christian home, and I care deeply about my kids and even her. I still believe any marriage can work if both partners are willing to try. But right now, I’m just tired. It’s painful when you want to communicate, but the other person refuses. She’s grown cold, distant, and resentful. When she cooks, I can see the resentment in her eyes, she is not happy doing it. It is like she went into the marriage with certain expectation and it doesnt look like I am meeting them. I have tried to ask, what can i do, teach me to love you. Tell me what you wants, for where? she will just lock up.

She has good qualities — she’s spiritual, beautiful, ambitious, serious-minded, she takes good care of the kids, she has introduced my children to God and prays with them. But emotionally, it feels like she’s no longer in the marriage. I’m just frustrated and honestly don’t know what else to do. I’m not perfect, but I’ve been faithful, responsible, and patient.

At this point, I just needed to vent. Maybe someone out there has gone through something similar and found a way forward.
