Then what is wrong with me just wanting to just work and spend my time out of work just doing stuff I like?   If both sides play that game of self-centeredness, then the relationship will fall apart fast.

There has to be give and take here, there cannot be "me me me" and selfishness in a relationship.

Life cannot be about what you want only. Give and take + compromise has to be the way to do things.

^-- Wow, lol.

I dunno what to say to that. I guess I've been fortunate enough to only run into chicks who like cooking and are relatively old-fashioned

@Ileke-Idi: Who said I won't cook too? Split if 50/50, or cook together.

@Inked_Nerd: I'm sure your mother is versatile enough to work a full time job, run the house, take care of her kids too.

I'm not part of the "women should stay in the kitchen barefoot and pregnant" crowd, but there have to be limits here 

Whatever happened to basic hospitality 

Even a stranger, if I have them in my house I'll offer them some food. Not to talk of your significant other. . .

Radical feminism is spoiling an entire generation of african women 

african1:
My Somali Muslim cousin is married to a Christian Nigerian man!!!! And they are gonna raise the kids Muslims.

haha

That is pretty cool. I guess the family must have extracted that promise before letting her marry?

@EzeUche__:I don't see any reason to blindly believe what anyone says. If there are accusations to be made, bring them before a court of law. Let the courts decide.

[size=1pt]Aren't you the guy who was drooling over the good looks of your beloved enugu governor? Seems a bit hypocritical for you to accuse anyone else of being gay :][/size]

Meh. Bring proof rather than innuendo.

[size=1pt]Speaking of innuendo. . . lmao @ f1ngering buhari, doesn't sound very PG-13 to me :x[/size]

I dunno. A disproportionate # of folks on the US Supreme Court are Catholics. 6 out of 9 . 2 of the 9 are Jewish. None are Protestants.

Yet Protestants are 51% of the US's population, while Catholics are only 25%, and Jews are 3%.

Is this some conspiracy against 51% of the US's population, that they have none of their co-religionists on the Supreme Court?

I don't think anyone really cares.

Religion really isn't that big a deal. . . shared culture is more important.

At least, in forward-thinking, progressive lands like the US and Yorubaland

Hmm, ok.

I guess for you, there are lot of feelings attached to it.

Me, it isn't a big deal. . . so long as things are fairly done, and nobody is turning somebody else into a slave.

Must be very painful emotionally 

Don't give up though, there is someone for everybody.

I'd suggest waiting a lot longer to commit emotionally though. Falling in love too quickly is dangerous.

Also, how are you sure it isn't infatuation on your part rather than love?

^-- What if the tasks are split down the middle fairly? That is the best way to do things.

I don't think I'd have a girl move in unless we were engaged though. . . I like my personal space 

I see your point though. . . getting all the benefits of marriage while not being married probably isn't fair

Body beauty > facial beauty for me

Girl with an average face but amazing body is still great in more attractive to me than amazing face, average body.

Post a link to the story

Women

^-- What is her reason for not cooking?

Even my friends and I cook for each other. . . I'll go over to my buddy's house to watch a game and he and his girl'll have some food ready. And vice versa.

Just to reverse the question a bit. Would a Muslim woman ever marry a Christian guy? I've not seen this happen very often.

Sounds like some juju stuff. Either that, or loving so good that she can never forget it

She won't cook, or cannot?

Would be a bit unfair if I'm cooking for her and she isn't cooking for me

I don't get it.

Is it like you have a rare blood type, needed a tranfusion and there was only one guy available with the matching blood type who was able to donate

Or what is the scenario here.

Plus aren't these blood donor things usually anonymous? They have a blood bank somewhere. . . how would you ever find out who you got the transfusion from?

I'm confused

And osu is a class of people who were ritually sacrificed to the gods. Descendants of weaklings who were too craven to live on their own and had to seek protection from shrines.

Basically like the untouchables from India

That is what this dude is

ofe mmanu references the oily soup that yoruba people eat, I think

kandiikane:
Ekt, can you please translate I saw it and I think it has something to do with soup lol.

I have no clue, I don't speak that language

It might be soup, I dunno?  

igbo boy:
ndi ofe mmanu sef,

Which one is your own? Mind your business, osu

greateros:
Then GEJ supporters on Nairaland (Beaf, Seun, Son-of god, ektbear, etc) will resume working on us and once more make an backside-hole of us all

Wait, what? You have the wrong idea. I'm not a GEJ supporter at all.

The old days of tribal warfare seem to have returned

Will be interesting to see who blinks first

hoodboy:
Okay lets start from this joke a friend posted on F.B: Election Quiz for Dame Patience Jonathan: If UMBRELLA is UMBLERRA,PRESS is PLESS,then what is ELECTION??

^-- Much appreciated baksonlee and Kilode?!

@baksonlee: Is that 300,000 roundtrip journeys? Or the equivalent of 300,000 one way. . . ?

Keep it coming folks!

Very cool move.

^-- Thanks! That is a start at least, hopefully we can help give them something more specific, as far as goals-setting.

Very interesting. And if GEJ doesn't arrest any northern leaders, let's see if the militants then follow up on their bold words.

Where is this plan? Is it written up somewhere as a document of some sort? Like, with specific things they want to accomplish by 2013 and 2015?
