quite an Eye Opener.... Ever wondered how the rate of cheating has increased since the introduction of social Media  ?? it all boils down to the fact that a lot of ppl Pay more attention to their phones rather than to their spouse. and it's so easy getting another person's attention over social media. once you begin to connect with someone else on social Media, Watch it..!!! it's jes the beginning of a long road to something you don't want. if Only ppl will learn to set priorities.. lots of situations will be avoided. 1 Like |
Romance / Why You Should Fall In Love With A Person Who Scares You by Egwuda33: 2:17am On Sep 20, 2015 |
“If she doesn’t scare the hell out of you a little, she’s not the one” At first glance, this might seem to be implying that you need to only date emotionally unstable people. But if you sit with it for a moment, it takes on a whole other (and more important) layer of meaning. As much as mainstream media would prefer you to think otherwise, the best relationships are not all sunshine and roses. Relationships are the ultimate vehicle for self- growth… and the best kind of love that you can engage in is the confronting kind. The kind where your partner acts as a mirror to you and they lovingly help pull all of your demons out of you over time. They act as a catalyst for positive growth. They’ll point a flashlight into every corner of your dark mental attic, and illuminate all of the things that you try to hide from the world. And they will illuminate it with love, patience, and compassion. Just when you expect them to run away (after having found out about your deepest, darkest secrets), they’ll tell you that they love you even more now that they know more about you. Intimacy is about truly letting someone see you. It’s also anxiety producing for the vast majority of people. Letting someone really know you, and really see you, can be terrifying. You are laying your heart in their hands and saying to them “Please be gentle with this.” And if they’re the right one for you, they will reply back (verbally or non-verbally) “I wouldn’t dream of ever being anything else to you.” When I first started dating again after an emotionally traumatic breakup, I was hesitant to let anyone get close to me. I engaged in surface level relationships because I feared the anxiety that intimacy produced for me. Even ‘admitting’ that I’d had a difficult day was enough to make my heart race. In my emotional closure I didn’t think I would ever be able to open up to someone ever again. Until one fateful day when I met someone who shook up my world entirely. Her eyes penetrated through me. There was no hiding around her. She never had to say it out loud, but I knew that she saw me. My ego’s first self-protective instinct was to run away and revert back to my old unproductive habits. Run away before she finds out all of the messy things about your past. Push her away before she has a chance to see past your self- deceptions. Avoid any contact with her in case she might make you feel big, scary emotions again. My ego resisted her every step of the way. I told myself she wasn’t my usual type. I tried to hide behind things like “She’s too young/ inexperienced/small town/etc. for me.” But it was all bullshit. Every thought that tried to keep me away from her was just my ego’s sad excuse to stay closed down emotionally. It was a defense mechanism and I knew it. When I really started to show up and tell her how I was feeling (namely, scared shitless to even be around her) she received it with grace and compassion. Because even before I had verbalized it, she knew. She already saw me. As terrifying as intimacy can be, the process of holding up our demons in the light is deeply therapeutic. Shame cannot continue to exist or thrive in the loving context of a close intimate relationship. Was I fixed forever for having her met her? No. It’s a process like everything else. I had to repeatedly breathe into the deeper layers of anxiety as I let myself be seen more and more by her. But I’ll be eternally grateful that I did meet her. Because her scaring the hell out of me was my ticket to a positive transformation that I never could have anticipated. So if you’re at a place in your life where you are starting to see someone who challenges you, confronts you, and scares you on some level, take stock of whether or not you think they might be a force for positive change in your life. Don’t date someone who scares you because they are controlling, angry, violent, or abusive in any way. That’s the bad kind of fear and it’s an unhealthy relationship to engage in. But date someone who scares you because they encourage you to face all of the things you’ve tried to suppress for so long. Date someone who lovingly pushes you to become more who you are at your core as a person. Date someone who nudges you outside of your comfort zone regularly and helps you level up in life. It might just be the best thing you ever did for yourself. This article was originally published at The Good Men Project. 1 Like |
Education / 5 Important Lessons Every Nigerian Student Should Learn Before Graduation by Egwuda33: 1:48am On Sep 20, 2015 |
1. Learning continues It’s tempting to think that because you are officially out of formal education, you stop learning, but resist the temptation. Learning is a life-long activity, and an indispensible part of every individual’s growth. Even in the workplace, you’ll be required to constantly brush up on your old skills, and pick up new ones along the way. So don’t throw away your pens just yet!
2. A certificate does not equal success It’s useful, but it is not the be-all and end-all of a successful career. In the real world, people are more interested in what skills you can offer, and what difference you can bring to the table, rather than how many ‘A’s you achieved, or your GPA. Consider a University degree as a stepping-stone, rather than the end goal.
3. Develop a good attitude and communication skills Having a carefree attitude towards people may (but it shouldn’t) work for you in school/ University, but in the real world, it won’t be of any help! It’s very important to maintain cordial relationships with people, to the best of your ability! (Who knows? One of them could be a potential employer.) Also learn the art of initiating and maintaining a conversation, and being able to sell yourself in a short space of time!
4. Start searching for jobs before you graduate This is so important. Many undergraduates don’t understand the importance of starting the job search early, and getting ahead in the race. Get professional help with your C.V., speak to knowledgeable people in your chosen industry, attending networking events, and contact organisations you’re interested in. Start equipping yourself for life after University, and be proactive!
5. Learn how to manage your finances This might be more difficult for students who are still dependent on parents or guardians, but it’s very important to manage money well, as it will help you start earning a salary. Ensure you budget properly, put some money aside for a rainy day, and avoid impulse buying and living beyond your means. |

MzNelly: Yes, emphasize how girls need to remain pure and untouched While a man should roam sexually wild and free
Stvpid sexist article. Lemme ask you this.... If any gal chose to keep herself pure and untouched, will any man force himself on her  ? Men know that they can easily get it from the nearest available gal that's why they go here and there looking for the nearest one to devour. if every gal Decided to keep herself untouched no matter the pressure, i'm sure Men will also learn to live with Self control no matter the urge.

Family / Re: Hear What A Mother Told Her Daughter On Her Wedding Day by Egwuda33: 11:35am On Sep 19, 2015 |
raayah:
Very Very bad Advice!
Look, my own mother suffered abuse in the hands of her husband after doing heaven and earth for him. You know what my mother told me one day? She sat me down and said, "Raayah. My husband does not love me, If he did, he will not abuse me like this for no reason".
Weeks after that, She moved out and hasn't looked back. She is planning to return the dowry to his people very soon. Life is so much better for her. No more spending nights at the hospital,(Yes, that's how serious the physical and mental abuse was), no more tears.. Life is good!
If you choose to stay with an abusive man because of the "children" or because you cannot "live independently", then say so. Don't tell women to stay with men with abusive men.. Same advice for men, don't stay with abusive women. They can kill did you take time to comprehend what you quoted before commenting  ? it's pretty Obvious you didn't. 5 Likes |

The only thing I have to say concerning this Biafra thing is this ; A HOUSE DIVIDED AGAINST ITSELF CANNOT STAND. Half of Igbos if not more than half clamouring for Biafra are not in support of it. so what are they saying  with Unity, anything can be Achieved, but without it nothing can be achieved. the igbos are divided in this cause so it will be difficult for Biafra to ever exist. |
