There is a lot to be said on this subject and I may not be able to explain everything here.
There are many couples like you. So I will refer you to the links below to read the opinions of those who have had the experience.

These are just a few. You can search for more online and read about how couples like you have been able to peacefully coexist despite their personality differences.

I also recommend Tim LaHaye's book, Opposites Attract. You can get it in most bookshops in Nigeria.

Onozztins:
Extroverts be speaking when no one asked them

That is how they are. Don't you know them again?

chalantmike:
the question is why do you want to be left alone.

My own question is, why don't you want her to be left alone?
It's how the person is wired.

sambisa5:
when i started reading,,i was like ''HOW CAN A FIRST TO COMMENT WRITE SUCH A LONG EPISODE?''........is like you typed this long thing down before.

I know how NL is,,once a topic is out before you know it,,,within the space of 2mins, you will be seeing 27comments

sometimes you may see the post first,,but with this kind of long episode,you will find yourself on page 2,,,cos before u finish typing,,poeple with shorter texts are there before you....

That is why FTC people rejoice so much,,,but many don't know why,,,,

in a nut shell,,,,now i know politics happen on NL too,,,,,,i can't just belive this long episode in FTC.....something happened

It's like you are new here. Have you not heard of space booking?
Once you type a word and click on 'reply', that space becomes yours and you can now take your time to write what you have in mind.
And by the way, this thread and my comment were created almost 6 months ago when the thread was not yet on FP (check the date of the post). I did not make that comment today.

So, chill. Stop wondering what happened. Space-booking happened!

JeffreyJamez:

Yeah, how could I have forgotten that fact? I'll include it immediately. Thanks.

My brain

Good piece.
It is important to know the difference between feeling sad/blue and clinical depression so that the situation can be addressed properly.

Everyone occasionally feels blue or sad. But these feelings are usually short-lived and pass within a couple of days but when someone has major/clinical depression, it is usually prolonged and it interferes with the person's daily life. The person may find it difficult to work, study, sleep , eat, and enjoy friends and activities.

It is marked by a depressed mood most of the day, particularly in the morning, and a loss of interest in normal activities and relationships, inability to make decisions, feelings of hopelessness and suicidal thoughts. These symptoms are present every day for at least 2 weeks.

Many people continue to try to cope with their symptoms without realising they are ill. It can take a friend or family member to suggest something is wrong.
The person cannot just wish it away or 'snap out of it' and put on a happy face and think it away. Watching TV doesn't make it go away.

Physical changes and chemical (neurotransmitter) imbalance in the brain among other factors are considered to be the cause of clinical depression.
Some people have clinical depression only once in their life, while others have it several times in a lifetime.
It can affect people of any age and race so it is not something that affects only 'oyibo' people. It is this wrong concept among Nigerians about depression that prevents many people from seeking help.

Many people wait a long time before seeking help for depression, but it's best not to delay. The sooner the person sees a doctor, the sooner he/she can be on the way to recovery.

Clinical depression symptoms can be treated with psychological counseling, antidepressant medications (such as fluoxetine) or a combination of the two.
Exercise and support from family and friends can cause significant improvement in the mood of depressed individuals.
So, if you have someone suffering depression, first understand his/her condition and try to help the person as much as you can.

I do not fret because of the Rapture.

On Christ the solid rock I stand. And I need no other argument, I need no other plea. It is enough that Jesus died and that He died for me.

With this mindset, I serve the Lord awaiting the day He calls me home.

Marotzke:
why? Are you age mates with Japan? (nation wise)? Would you also look at Dangote 's three private jets or Wale Tinubu's mansion and be ashamed of your self? After all you are all Nigerians. Appreciate a good thing and leave it at that. You don't have redistribute your cynicism or depression.

You don't have to take my comment personal either.

What is annoying me now is their innocent looking faces

When I see stuffs like this, I am ashamed for Nigeria. I feel shame for our current state.
We don't have any reasonable thing to show for all the oil money we have spent over the past years.

Question for the gods.

1st step : Rub pepper for ur eye

Finally na Devil de use the person

You must have watched a lot of Tom and Jerry cartoons.

asdfjklhaha:
But our lives are at stake if we sleep in church, we can end up in hell don't u think hell shuld be more scary dan ur CGPA?

OK. I think you just found your cure. The next time you feel sleepy, tell yourself "If I fall asleep, I may go to hell!"
That should keep you awake.

asdfjklhaha:
I eat most times before going for lectures and yet I don't sleep during lectures why's dat of sunday different? Anyway thanks 4 ur contribution

Because you take down notes during lectures and don't just listen.
And also when your CGPA is at stake, you won't want to sleep because you want to pass with good grades.

Stop taking custard before going to church!

I'm serious. If you can avoid heavy food before going to church, it will help a great deal. When you eat, your body goes into digestion mode. During digestion, your body breaks down the nutrients in food. This causes a rise in blood sugar that triggers your pancreas to release insulin into the bloodstream. Insulin increases the amount of serotonin and melatonin that flood the brain, two chemicals associated with drowsiness.

Try to get enough sleep on Saturday night. If you do, you will not be able to sleep for some hours after you are fully rested. (You could still be bored, you just won't fall asleep.)

Also, get more interested in the sermon and try to take down notes. If you take notes, it is much easier to stay awake than if you just listen.

Or become a worker, that would make you active.

My Jesus doesn't mind if I'm in the toilet or not. He is ever present and I can talk to Him anywhere.

I think Allah should not also mind the toilet since he is the protector of those who follow him. You should be able to call out to him anywhere too.

There must always be a doomsday prediction at every point in time.

If he prefers to work from Duara, (Duara rock) no problem as long as he is working and Nigeria is CHANGING for good.

OP, it is not in all cases.

There are still graduates from these schools who fall way below expectation in their field of study.

Personal commitment to self development and improvement is what actually places someone above his/her peers.

Firefire:
My brother, so sorry, I meant to actually quote PassingShot.

PassingShot over to you: https://www.nairaland.com/2392387/buhari-not-jonathan-responsible-refineries/4#34957675

I thought as much.( goes back to sleep)

Firefire:
Buhary that is still struggling to form his cabinet ?

SGF unavailable

CoS unavailable

Ministerial list - infighting still ongoing among the 'civilian coup plotters'

I challenge you to show us where PMB ordered the refineries repairs.

I admit the cabal in oil sector are really powerful as admitted also by PMB

The same cabal are in our power sector.

Until we Nigerians come together to say enough is enough nothing like CHANGE can eve happen.

Mr. Firefire, why you come dey challenge me na? (Damn it, I was taking a nap and your mention of my moniker woke me up)

Truth is, you don't expect the OP to say that Jonathan is responsible. Don't you know him again?
My own point is, let the refineries work first and let's feel the impact. I bet most people are not interested in who did it, all they want is to feel the impact on their fuel expenses.

PassingShot:
This is part of the misery!

Mystery, you mean?

Whether it is GEJ or Buhari that is responsible, all of that is just for political discussion and arguments.

What matters to Nigerians is that the refineries will finally start working and they get to spend less on fuel. Period.

Those who have the time can go ahead and engage in arguments and debate on the issue.

If it were to be me, I'd take the lecturing job and work hard at it. I have never liked bank jobs.

Mr. President, each indecision brings its own delays and days are lost lamenting over lost days. . . . What you can do or think you can do, begin it.

All this agitation is mainly online and they are making real progress...online.
I am considering asking the owner of Nairaland to give them a large portion of land on nairaland to finally actualize their dream.

Biafra is biafra no matter where it is created, not so?

DrDee1:
Enemity,YES. They were misguided get the point and as such that automatically makes them to be expressed as PMB did. Any misguided brother is a suspect and could be term any name base on his activities,militant,terrorist,kidnapper e.t.c.

PMB said nothing wrong. YES!!!

Get the message and stop the personality attack.

What personality attack are you talking about? Where is the attack in my post?
Na wa for you o!
You need to take a chill pill.

They are our brothers whom we've long disowned.
Because of the path they've chosen we have no choice but to treat them as enemies.

You did not get his gist. I think it is a subtle way of telling you to do the needful... you know na
