RomanceRe: He Forcefully Took My Virginity, Wants Marriage. I'm Hurting. What Should I Do? by djon78(m): 7:19am On Aug 12, 2018
Honestly this is a very sad story. I understand you wanted to keep your virginity. And the evil cr.etin took it away from you.

That guy does not deserve you, he had no iota of value for you at all. He is very selfish and evil. Kindly end everything with that guy, If you love your life.

The only one that can truly comfort you is God and nothing else. I pray may the God of all comfort, bring true comfort to your being. And may he reward you with a true genuine man that will wipe away your tears.


As for those that talk down on virginity,. It is true that this generation has no value for holy things. But there are people that do. There is no man that won't value a virgin wife. I know a lot of men that still brag with their wife's virginity till this day. So let nobody fool you. Give men the option of marrying a virgin and non virgin and you will see the One they will choose. If you are virgin, better keep it well. Don't mind the comments you read here

there was this maths teacher dat taught us in secondary school. He was a very dedicated christian who was married to a lady who was quite loose. It was dis guy who did d domestic stuff at home while d lady watched tv. The man recently died of cadiac arrest. He was cleaning his car outside while his wife and two grownup dauthers were in d sittingroom watching nollywood then he collapsed. Its not worth it trying to stomach d excess of a cheating partner. If u stomach it,it will overwelm and finally kill u. I just love d oyibo way. If u a chronic unrepentent cheat then divorce is d next option. Though its always better u break up with her as a girlfriend than as a wife. Like this man op is talking about who broke up with his fiancee. He did the right thing....no need for unnecessary high blood pressurecheesy.
Marrying a wayward woman is not something I will wish on any man. It is because society has no more values. Today nothing wey person no go hear. But there are still good women out there. But na only God's favor go help you find such.

PDP did a very smart thing to be at the assembly ahead of the novices of apc.The apc backtracked when they realized their plan has been foiled!
Eternal vigilance is the word right now cos buhari/apc is genuinely jittery they will be defeated next year.
When you begin to witness the level of scheming and muscling of opposition like currently ongoing, it is. The cleareMOst sign of a. Sinking incumbent!
But the question I ask this people. Have they forgotten 2015. What did they not do to Jonathan. What kind of names and ridicule did he not receive But the man gently left them.

As long as this earth remains God has put a law that whatever you sow that you will reap. They think they will not reap? There is no way they will run away from the repercussion.
Because there is a living God.

People should learn to fear God. Whatever you do in this life, you can never get away with it. There is always a reward/repercursion. Where is Abacha, Al mustapha, where is Gaddafi.

When you are ruling, rule with the fear of God. Be just and fair to all. Know that one day you will give account.



Nigeria will be freed from all this madness. And we will be on the path of development again.

My dear your story is very pathetic. But the only thing I want to tell you is that the sun will shine again in your life. Don't give up. Be very strong. You will get over this.

The most important thing now is shelter. Is it that your mom doesn't want you again? Because no matter what, go back to your mom. Don't you have another relation? Because what you really need now is a shoulder to lean on.


And this is a warning to young women working hard. Don't fall for the gimmicks of irresponsible men. Close your legs. Have value for your body. Because many of these guys are beasts. No human feelings. And there characteristics is that they prey on hard working nice girls. Just beware

You can say whatever you like, but once I see a very destructive comment that is likely to lead people astray I will call you guys out.


A woman has no reason to be opening her legs. She should close that legs. When she gets married she can explore with her husband. Women are meant to be virtuous, close that leg. Because once you begin to open, one man no go do you. And we will be hearing this kind of story.

we still expected to love our wives oo except maybe na woman wey u no like na im u marry or dem arrange d woman give u. But d love u hv for ur kids might be higher. As for ppl seperating over infidelity issue i think its wise. I dont see any reason as a guy u will be having unnecessary high blood pressure over a cheating fianceecheesy. Why not jus tell her to go and hv ur peace of mindcheesy.
I did love stuffs before and I don't now. Now is better for me. It's more of me fulfilling my obligation and duty.
What more does a woman want when you are faithful to her and you work hard to provide for her and the children?
I believe women use love as blackmail.

For cheating I can never tolerate that because if me as a man keeps myself away from messing up despite the kind temptation wey dey now, there is no reason a woman won't. The problem with a lot of women nowadays I'd there is no more self control. Many women today have frequent sex as single women. They cannot close there legs. Some have tasted different kinds of men in bed. Men not there husbands.
Tell me how such a woman will be satisfied with one man when she gets married?
Story, fafafowl. And they are the kind of girl you read on this story. One man can never do them, because she has accustomed herself to sleeping around, that's why she will go and sleep with a man as her wedding is approaching.

That is abomination. God saved that young man. He should go and thank God. The worst thing that can happen to a man is if you marry a wayward woman. How can she teach your children, good morale? How can she be able to correct her children when they begin to misbehave?

Abeg oo

but the westerners tend to exhibit more love than we africans to their better halves. I mean from their songs..d way the men pamper their women and dat mindset of catching a grenade for ur better halfcheesy. But at d slightest hint of a partner cheating u see dem breaking up and divorcing all over d place. I still feel it has to do with financial indenpedence cos in the west if d lady divorces she still gets alimony from the man for d taking care of the kids. But in naija na different case entirely. For nigeria if a woman has a husband who is a chronic skirt chaser and he sleeps in the brothel 24/7 she cant just easily divorce him. She will think about who is going to look after d kids,who will look after me..how will my friends and my church regard me as a divorcee. Thats d coco.no be love oo. Look at caroline danjuma for example.her millioniare husband was a chronic unrepentant skirt chaser and she still swallowed everything until it bcame too unbearable and ppl were laughing at her. The day women in naija and africa start having more financial power and indenpendence then the divorce rate will skyrocket.its already even happening sef.
That's why I was telling her love was for kids. Who talk love pass oyibo them, but na them dey divorce pass. Keeping a marriage is more about everyone in the union doing his duty well. Man plays his role well, woman play her role well and there will be less fracas. This was why many of our fathers and past generations had better marriages than what we are having now. Today marriage is taking as a flimsy thing because we dey copy western life.

Your marriage life will be very boring if you stick to this mindset, trust me and don't blame her when she goes outside. Don't treat women like men, we are wired differently, my own advice tho.
Boring ko outside ni. Abeg talk another matter. You think I no do love things then? I will say it again love is for kids. It is just a senseless feeling. I believe in being good to my woman. Infact all the ladies I had in my past, always never forgot me.

My philosophy is treat a woman very good but at the same time I will not tolerate any kind of rubbish. I lay out my laws. You have to obey it. I have ways to discipline you. More like carrot and stick approach.

Have you ever been in lovehuh Have you ever done something for your lady that people thought you were insane? Get my point, the act is not good, in fact I hate cheating, I used to talk like this before but when I encountered it, it was a different ball game. If you truly love the person, you will end up trying to punish the person oo but after a while you will overlook it but if you can't endure you leave but what is the guarantee the next person won't make this same mistake. You make up your mind to trust, let's use Nigeria as an example, the politicians keep disappointing us with promises that they end up not fulfilling but we are still hopeful that someone will come and change everything. That's Trust, Love Does Not Give Up Easily! The next girl will give him heartaches too but it all depends on how he handle her heartaches, nobody is perfect, just so u know.
Love is for kids. Life is reality. Marriage should be strictly a duty. The man will play his role, likewise the woman. And life goes on.

The main truth is that guy is completely jobless. He doesn't have any work that's why he is online 24hrs fighting for politicians that have no conscience.

Is it me that is busy organising, detailing my life well to leave a better legacy for my children will have time for all those there rubbish.

Advice I will give to youths; get your life organized, detailed. Have a vision for your life. Our world is changing rapidly. If you get it right. You will shine as light in the midst of darkness around us. Even international doors will be opened to you. My sister who worked in Nigeria as a good professional recently relocated to Canada with her husband and 2 sons. She arrived there and was welcomed right from the airport. Has gotten her social security number latest in 3 years time she will hold her Canadian passport.

Youths forget about these hopeless politicians. Be focused. Have a drive. Know where you are headed in life. Work very hard. Don't waste your life on vision less and direction less politicians. International doors will be opened to you. Don't waste your life. This life can be really fun. Don't let people like that fellow who are gutter rub mud on you.

It is because this generation commonise sexual immorality. The guy did the right thing. God saved him, that he found out b4 the wedding. that's why people have to be very very careful. many people commonise sex, but that is wrong. it's when you commonise it, you can easily do it with any random person.

Sex is a very special thing you share only with someone you are in covenant with. Not even a boyfriend or girlfriend. People must begin to place high respect and value for their body. That's why all manner of sicknesses and diseases are prevalent today because people defile there body anyhow.

wirinet:
My friend it is you that does not understand how the world works.
Exxon Mobil and international oil companies do not keep assets in foreign countries. They enter into profit sharing agreement with most countries. Do you know how many countries of the world Exxon Mobil operates in?


What concerns Facebook, Apple and Microsoft with Trump's trade war? Is China competing with Facebook, Apple and Microsoft? Trump's trade war is to benefit his base, white non degree blue collar workers and rural farmers. He wants to create more jobs for American factory workers and create export market for American farm produce.


China is no where in artificial intelligence or even technology as a whole. China only wait for US or Europe to create a technological breakthrough and then steal the technology. They do not respect international patent laws. This is one reason Trump is mad at China. Japan is way ahead of China in terms of AI.

Which Chinese AI company is worth Microsoft before you start talking about 10 times. Apple just became the first trillion dollar company in the world.

So what is the competitive advantage of the gulf states? They are not into manufacturing, technology, media, or finance. Ecommence has greatly reduced their trading advantage. You do not need to travel to Dubai anymore to buy made in China goods. you buy direct from alibaba.


The Arab nations seems prosperous because they have huge oil reserves and a tiny population. Added to that, they operate absolute monarchy, so the government is very cheap to run. No money wasted for periodic elections, no expensive legislature, no political class that needs to be pampered. The monarchs just give the small population some crumbs, use some money for infrastructure, save some for rainy days and share the remaining. That is why most royal family members are multi billionaires.


You cannot compare Nigeria with a population of close to 100,000,000 relying on just about 2,000,000 barrels of crude per day. The money is just not enough to provide social amenities for the citizens, build standard infrastructure, run an expensive democracy, run expensive quasi monarchies the same time and pamper the political elite. There is just not enough money.
That's where you got it wrong. Nigeria mismanaged and wasted her resources. It's not about population it's about management of resources. Nigerian standard of living should not be where it is now. It's all about mismanagement .



I asked how many oil assets does Exxon Mobil have? Did you see how they were chased out of Russia? Saudi Arabia Aramco about going public in 2019. Selling just 5 percent of its assets to raise over a trillion dollars!! Exxon Mobil and other western run oil companies have no tangible assets. And a lot of owners of the assets are becoming wiser, like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, uae, even Russia and getting much richer and dictating according to their terms.


I quoted Bill Gates verbatim what he said not hear say. that he is focusing more investing on artificial intelligence because that is the next big thing. That one artificial intelligence company is worth more than 10 Microsoft so he is majorly focusing on it and that China is already ahead of US in that area.


As for the gulf states, they have got their game excellently right. They are building for a building for a better future for their people. They got it right with their airlines, and other stuffa. At least this article talked of Saudi Arabia having one of the biggest investments in Canada. Their citizens are well taken care of.

Not our citizens that will be keeping vigils at embassies and treated like shit..hole. OR going through Sahara desert all in the name of migration to oyibo land.

@ emboldened

Even Jesus said we should never mix religion with politics in the bible
Christians are called to pray for the nation and ensure that justice, fairness and equality is upheld. When we see things that are wrong we knock on heavens doors. Jesus told us in the Lords prayer that we should pray God's will to be done on earth as it is in heaven.

So my dear we must pray and one confidence I have and have proved times without number is that God answers prayers.
While evil perpetuate is because we don't pray. We must begin to pass God's divine judgement on evil doers.

And like I said God answers prayers. What happened yesterday was not just ordinary, it was God at work. It was not man's making.

"NIGERIAN!!! YOU'RE SLEEPING"

It is a waste of time and distractions to think the Problem of Nigeria is your President. I could vividly recalled when Buhari was sworn in, He sent three bills to the National assembly for approval.

(1) Bill:-- Let's tax anyone have luxurious properties like private JET, HOTEL, etc, and use the money to chatter for the poor, the Senate President, silent the move by saying, discriminatory bill is not good, we can't tax people because they are rich.

(2) Bill:-- Let's be giving the Poor people #30,000 naira monthly to relieve them of their poverty, the Senate seats under the control of Saraki said, Nigeria Government does not have the capacity to pay it, Ooh!!! What about #5K monthly to the Poor of POOREST? Saraki, killed the bill, under the guise that Nigeria Government have economic challenges. 2months later, the National Assembly (HOUSE OF LOOTERS) went and bought bullet proof Jeep and called it #37million each, after the journalist investigation, we were told, each Jeep cost #10million, yet, Nigerian kept silent.

(3) Bill:-- Pass a bill of special court to try any corrupt people in government and send them to the prison as soon their properties is confiscated, Saraki DESTROYED the Bill.

The same NATIONAL ASSEMBLY (HOUSE OF LOOTERS) raise a motion to kill any Nigerians with
HATE SPEECH
Guess what..?
The Bill raised by your representative has passed 2nd reading, which means, very soon, if you speak against any of your GOVERNMENT you won't be jail but kill.

As your rulers are making all efforts to SILENT you, you are busy SLEEPING!!!

As your National Assembly are making all efforts to SILENT you, you are busy abusing Buhari.

As your Representative are busy LOOTING your future and making LAW to SILENT you and controlling your mouth, you are busy laughing.

As our RELIGIOUS LEADERS and POLITICAL LEADERS are busy LOOTING our treasury and waste away our future..... we are busy fighting for them.

Now!!! If we hear that byour religious leader just bought a new private JET worth 34Billion naira after he has purchased 5 already AND if we hear that 5trillion naira missing and you want to run your mouth on the news, you will be KILL.

It is so UNFORTUNATE!!!

And where did Zara and her brother graduate from? The truth is that the elites are all the same be it pdp, apc etc. Effecting change will take time, they designed the system like that. It will take a true selfless and smart leader to change the system.

Moreover a leadership is true representation of the people they govern. Corruption is not just in places of authority, even ordinary employees working for you will steal you blind if you are not observant.
The truth is there must be a change in values among our people. Ordinary driving you will see how law breaking the common man is. I have lived in other climes and I can tell you that Nigeria's case is special. Other African countries citizens don't behave this way, I have close lifelong associates from East, South, western and northern part of Africa and their behavior is excellently decent.

Question

Was he dismissed for raiding judges house?

Was he dismissed for refusing to release Dasuki in jail?


Were those any greater than invading Nass?

So If the government was involved yesterday, they could have simply covered for him like they did before

Other questions

How did middle-aged men/ women over power DSS operatives?

Why did security operatives supposedly mask and ready to prevent the entrance of certain people not prepared for possible combat?

I hope you know security operatives will carry tear gas and sticks in that type of operation like they did under Jonathan in 2014 and just last week in Benue, to prevent close confrontation with potential protesters

Secondly, what were they trying to protect? Because at the end of the day, there was no one in senate floor as alleged by PDP senators.


So DSS was protecting invisible APC senators and the PDP senators were trying to stop invisible senators from impeaching Saraki

Finally, after allowing the senators gain entrance, why was the senate Clerk officials turned away? How will the impeachment process be possible without them or perhaps it was done to create an atmosphere of uncertainty to prevent any meeting to the cheers of PDP
All these jargon you are writing are your insinuations. The report we just read was that he wanted to effect change at the National Assembly on his own while disdaining the person of VP who was the acting president and you are making assumptions from God knows where.

The main issue is that the prayers we have been doing is yielding results. You guys have never seen anything. God will put so much commotion within there midst. Can a man stand against God? Like the Bible said, God hardened the heart of Pharaoh to show His power.

My friend go and learn how the world works. Let me ask you, how many oil assets does Exxon Mobil have? Did you hear how they were chased out of Russia?

You are calling facebook, apple, Microsoft, let me ask you why is trump clamping down on China? With trade war? Do you know why?

The next biggest IT revolution that will change our world is artificial intelligence and China is already ahead of US in that area. Even Bill Gates said it because Microsoft is also investing on it. Let me quote Bill Gates as I heard him verbatim; the next big thing to happen is artificial intelligence and Microsoft is focusing on it. One artificial intelligence company is worth more than 10 Microsofts, and China is in the lead. That's why US is fighting back to take us back to when they were controlling things but it can't be because many countries are coming up speedily.

Coming to the airlines and gulf states there is what we call in business economics competitive advantage. It is the advantage each nation has which enables it to win in the global economy. America is technology, media, global finance. China is low cost manufacturing and global production centre while Germany,Japan and South Korea are specialised hi technology

The Arab nations have leveraged on their natural resources to save and store up huge cash like Abu Dhabi has saved cash of over 1 trillion dollars same with Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Qatar, Kuwait etc. They have massively invested in tourism that's why Dubai, Qatar, Abu Dhabi, etc have millions of tourist visitors every year, they invested massively in airline business that's why the Arab Emirates airline carry the highest number of passengers in the world.

So my friend they are on top of their game. My only pain is that Nigeria did not use all her opportunity well if not Nigeria is supposed to be a global reckoned force.

The problem is that our people have been brainwashed by western propaganda. Then our foolish leaders sell us for a porridge. Travel to some of these countries and see whether dey craze for west the way our people do. They rearly go there, maybe once in a while for vacation.

My sisters children have been to US, UK, Germany, Dubai for holidays. but the only place they will behave well if they are naughty just tell them if they behave well that they will go to Dubai for holidays, they obey immediately. Many people may not believe that some of these countries have better infrastructures than US.


A childhood friend of mine who lives in the US traveled to China for the first time from his base in the states. When he came back he was shocked of how better infrastructures China has. Many don't know that China have better infrastructure than US. China has modern rsilway and bullet train connecting the entire country the US doesn't have that.


Let's leave western propaganda, our people need to seriously wake up. We can turn and transform our nation's with modern infrastructure. That's what our leaders are supposed to be doing but they won't. And not our people running away to become 3rd class citizen in foreign country.

Those Arabs get money. Even infrastructure wise many of these countries have better infrastructures than US. Arabian airlines like Emirates, Qatar and etihad are miles ahead of western airlines. These guys have liquid money. The money they spend, dey no born these Americans make them spend am.


The problem with most of us is that many of our people are so focused on West. But westerners are just hustlers like every other person. There are many other nations that live way better than westerners. It is just that those countries protect there economy.

Yes na ask them. They love going to work in the gulf
Sure true, I schooled overseas had a very close friend and classmate originally from Tunisia but he is also a Canadian citizen. His dad lives in Saudi Arabia. He used to tell me wonderful stories about Saudi Arabia. We were wonderful friend. Those Arabs get money. The dad bought an apartment for his two sons studying in my school, not rent oo. He bought it and this na luxury apartment.

Among my circle of friends then was he then an Indian Muslim called Hussein also lives in Saudi Arabia, from a very rich home. The funny thing was that I was a staunch Christian an igbo boy but it never stopped our friendship and brotherhood. Really had so much fun with those guys. Very honest and sincere.

This is a big article to the conscience. Anybody that will ridicule this article has no conscience. This is the best advice the President will get.

This article is prophetic, but like the scriptures said Pharaoh hardened his heart so that God will take the final glory.

I rest my case

Really? First and foremost, America is literally a "no man's land": a significant majority of people in the US have been foreigners at some point (referring to the lineage). The infrastructure you talked about was built by foreigners.

In fact, many top tech companies in the US was founded/cofounded by foreigners who were once enrolled in school; in Silicon Valley majority of the people there are foreigners who were once on visas, some are still on visas. The booming real estates and housing is as a result of foreigners. Many of these same foreigners have better credibility than some US citizens (with reference to background checks, credit scores, criminal records, etc.).

Generally, Americans don't study past a bachelor's degree, many don't study past high school. Most of the professors in schools were once foreigners, and a large number of students in the top tier universities are even foreigners. Most people studying masters, MBA or PhD are foreigners. Without foreigners most university endowment in the US will be very low.

Most foreigners are even more law abiding than its citizens. Without foreigners US economy will be merely like that of Mexico.

Yes, I know many people abuse the visa, but a majority of Nigerians who attend school in the US with student visa excel academically, and whether you like it or not, these same students add value to the US economy when they get jobs (I'm referring to students enrolled in STEM programs). I know many people who got jobs in the US after school, worked for a while and after gaining valuable experience returned to Nigeria to setup their business.

Have you ever reasoned that some times in order to critically examine something, one needs a different exposure to cultivate a different mindset: corruption is looming in Nigeria, to the extent that the average Nigerian, who haven't probably left the shores of Nigeria, with the wit to boycott corruption might fail at it. International exposure could play a major role in tackling corruption in Nigeria.

The "hardship" you mentioned isn't anyone's choice (referring to the youth), but the foundation of which the economy was built on is the problem. At times, one may need to breathe a different air to see things from different perspective in order to solve problems.
The truth is that they don't want you again. Kukuma stay in your country and make it a better place. Add value to it.

I think most of the time this is a mindset thing. Do you know that the biggest producer of garri in Nigeria is an Indian man. We claim there is no opportunity but there is so much money in this country!! It just depends on what you can see.

A friend of mine, a very hard working single mother went to the US last summer with her daughter, she just dey vex when she came back. As she dey spend money na so our people there dey shake.

There is hardship here, but if you look more you will see wealth.
Running away is not the solution. Staying here to effect change will.

When you guys are all running away from the country. No iota of shame again.
My own is to restructure Nigeria, let every part develop at its pace.
Not running away to another man's land.
When opportunity came for me to travel overseas and study. I didn't even agree. My parents had to sit me down that it was for my own good. I later agreed.
It was a very good academic experience. Met a lot of Nigerians from wealthy homes. I shared same school apartment with namadi sambos nephew Hausa boy(the guy got job with LNG Bonny when he came back) . I was very close to a lot of Hausa Fulani boys, na them be real ajebos. It was in my schooling I begin respect naija money. You see all those rich kids living exotic life. I was hanging out with many of them during weekends in club then in my first year. By second year I quit the hanging out so that I face my studies jare make I face what I came to do. Wrote my last exam December of that year, by January got my return ticket and returned to Naija. Home is home and me I like am here jo.

Although maybe when my wife go deliver our first baby next year we may go to Canada for delivery on legal migration. My sister and husband and kids migrated to Canada this April. I will want my kids to have the citizenship of that country. I prefer it to US.

dangote group will live for long


can't say same for most businesses in Nigeria tho
I can't say so, he should just ensure he is building with right foundation. If he does so, his company will outlive him but if not, natural laws will take its course. It's just the way it is.

This is true. I doubt the Dangote group will outlive its founder. There's something about Africans, only a few of us care to teach others our way of making money. I don't know why.

I'm surprised this legacy thing didn't start today regarding white people. Till today nairalanders keep cursing Frederick Lugard without knowing he secured his name in history books even far back in the early 1900s -- not only here but also in the then colonized India.
It is because of foundation problem. Most times the foundation of building the companies here is enshrined on wickedness. No justice, fairness and equality. And the truth is that anything you build without those good qualities will never last. No way it will last.

So the wisdom here is that whatever we are building be it company, country, marriage, let us build wisely with honesty, integrity, justice, equity etc. If we build right, it will definitely out live us. Many human being deceive themselves thinking that man will live forever, not at all. Man is very mortal. So build wisely.

She said it in her post, any woman that does such to you is young and doesn't know what she wants yet in a man. No true mature woman will see a diamond and opt out for bronze. BTW, are you Diamond? If you are, please continue, don't reduce your value because of anyone. Jesus did not say because his generation were full of perverts, he wouldn't die for them. He died for them regardless, now we are reaping the benefits. Keep doing what you do, you will be glad u did
Anyway sha I will agree with you. We need to still show kindness no matter what. Although God later surprised me. A woman came into my life then that was the one showering me with love. From her I learnt that good men are very scarce, even more than good women. So any woman wey get good man must value him so much.

Then the other one wanted to come back after her eyes Don open, but it was already too late. She is a big girl now, working in Vi but still no Love. Very very lonely. I pray she finds one, but she may never have that opportunity again for a man that genuinely cared for her.
