Health / Re: Husband Refuse To Pay Half Of Childbirth Hospital Bills Because He Didn't Use It by Elgaxton(m): 2:35pm On Oct 13, 2023
DyshApp:
Okay coming here as a last resort because I genuinely think this problem could be the end of my marriage. Also throwaway bc my husband is a frequent redditor. My husband (35M) and I (32F) welcomed our first baby three months ago. We’ve been married 7 years now and decided it was time to expand our family. Everything was going well and we were in our little newborn bubble of bliss until the hospital bills came. Both my husband and I have jobs and everything financially is split 50/50, but we’ve always kept our money separate with the exception of a joint account for bills.

Throughout the duration of my pregnancy, I planned to go for an unmedicated natural birth with as little intervention as possible. That was up until I hit the 24 hour mark of labor, I caved and got the epidural (which I was open to having if needed). My husband had no problem with it, even encouraged it.

When the bill came he brought it to me to pay all $8,000+ (after insurance) from my personal savings, I asked why. He said “You’re the one that couldn’t hold out for a few more hours and jacked up the bill with all your meds and an extra nights stay and he shouldn’t have to pay for all of my extra requests. If I wanted luxury, I should expect to pay for it”. I was stunned, and flipped out, but I’ll spare you the details.

He refuses to budge, calling me a princess for expecting him to pay for all the “extra add ons” I requested in the hospital. this is by far the biggest issue in our 14 year long relationship so far and I’m so lost on where to go from here. I gave in and paid the bill, but since then we haven’t been talking much and honestly I just feel disrespected. Do I have the right to feel this way or is it just hormones? Am I The Asshole for expecting him to contribute towards the cost of my childbirth? WIBTA for considering leaving him?

What would you do in this situation?



This so-called man is actually a Bomboy. It's because he hasn't searched for fruit of the womb before.
Romance / Re: The Girl Helping Me After My Surgery Is Irritating Me Please Help!!! by Elgaxton(m): 3:49pm On Sep 23, 2022
Sebi you have gotten what you wanted? Onyeiberibe!!!
Someone who helped you so much has become irritating all of a sudden. Nonsense!!!
Darren95:
I had femur fracture on my left leg and it’s been difficult to move around the house and get things done because I can’t put weight on the operated leg until the fracture heals.

There is this lady friend I knew last year. Back then I tried persuading this lady friend to let me have a shot from her honey pot but she refused.
Honestly back then I was only interested in her honey pot nothing more because I’m not ready for a committed relationship at this stage of my life.

Nearly 2 months after I had the surgery, i called this lady friend (we have not been talking for close to a year) and told her I had accident. She immediately book a car and came to my house to see me. I was surprised and appreciated her quick response. I told her how it happened and that my two friends (guys) have been the ones helping. I told her I would be glad if she comes around to care for me while I heal as I can’t get food from the kitchen myself because I can’t step on my both legs due to the surgery. I live alone in my two bedroom apartment.

Omo starting from that day she started caring and didn’t leave until 5 days later. She said she was going to her home town and she needed to see her 2yrs old daughter (she got pregnant while in a relationship with her ex).

The issue on ground now is that, ever since she returned she has not gone to her own house where she rented. She has been in my house doing virtually everything and my both friends have left (they are business men). I was tempted to approach her for sex and she gave me smoothly without complain unlike before. I was like, look at you when I was healthy you didn’t let me have your honey pot, but now you gave it to me without stress! Hmmm we laughed over it.

But the rate at which this lady friend is taking care of me is scaring, she does everything to the point that I can’t remember the last time I opened a bottle water myself. She does it for me, the only thing I do is bath myself!
Few days ago my guy who was with me came with his female friend to pay me a visit and omo this my lady friend was looking at this girl with all force and frown on her face. I mean the looking was like; ‘’who is this girl, does she have parol with me’’ you know that kind of look.

It pissed me off and since then I have been feeling irritated. I mean we are not dating, has she taken this too far inside her heart!

I’m thinking of moving her out but I don’t have a perfect option In getting someone I can trust like her to take care of me especially because I’ve not started walking.
Will this turn out to be a problem tomorrow? I only had sex with her ones and refuse to ever do it again because of this.
I always tell her I will appreciate you with something very nice when I heal completely, that I appreciate her support and that if she has anything to do, she can go and do it and come back but NO she never left my house and i asked myself what was she doing before I called her??!!
To even ask her say Watin you Dey before I call you, tire me because e go look like say I dey tell her to go!!!
Sports / Re: Why Nigeria Falconets Slept On The Floor At Istanbul Airport - NFF by Elgaxton(m): 11:29am On Aug 25, 2022
I blame Nigeria for being the way we are... Did we have to get to this level? Why must FIFA book our flight and if so, why didnt the protocol officer follow up on the visas. Must there be an emergency before you people will know that Turkey and all those countries aren't happy with the way we abuse freedom. The protocol / Travel officer should have been proactive, NFF should have been proactive as well.

Business / Re: How Do I Recover My Money From Union Bank? by Elgaxton(m): 4:37am On Apr 26, 2022
xcelpro:
Good day Nairaland.
Please how do I recover my money from Union Bank?
On 19th April 2022, I went to use their ATM at about 8:10 a.m and I was debited N20k without cash dispense because the machine went off while counting the money due to power failure from the bank's generator house.
After 24hrs I went to their branch to lay a compliant and they acknowledged the dispense error and started that it will be reversed after 24hrs which did not happen.
I called their customer care line 2 days later and one of their agent told me that it will be reversed after 24hrs and that she has sent It for manual reversal.
Despite this I didn't get the reversal.

I again went to the bank last week Friday, 23rd April and the customer service apologized that it must be reversed that day which did not still happen.
I chatted them up on Twitter, and they claim that it has been reversed, and after proving that nothing has been reversed they stopped responding to my messages on Twitter.
I sent them a mail and they didn't respond till yesterday, where they stated that the issue will be resolve within 48 hours.
Nothing has happened yet.
I tried calling their their customer service now and I noticed that I can no longer reach them with my two lines, probably they blocked my line.

P.s; I am fully aware that they have breached their obligation in respect to banker-customer relationship and that I would be entitled to damages if I sue them for this.
But the truth is, instituting a legal action now would be too expensive for me coupled with the litigation process.

Please what do you suggest I do apart from litigation?

Take the matter to twitter and tag thhere twitter account. Thank me later

Family / Re: Help! I Want To Leave My Wife by Elgaxton(m): 3:10am On May 02, 2021
OfeAchi:
BACKGROUND:

I had a decent job before I met her and I was responsible for all the decisions I took, which mostly led to favourable outcomes.
However when I met her and began a relationship, I wasn't having the freedom I needed. Any decision I wanted to take without her authorization always ended badly. For example there was a period I wanted to jointly rent an apartment with a male friend of mine. She strongly opposed this but I still went ahead to pay rent. Unfortunately for me, within four months my friend had some issues with landlord and we were both evicted from the apartment. (although I got compensated)

Another instance was when I got paid some bonuses from company and decided to invest in some crypto projects during their ICOs (in 2017). I did some market analysis of these crypto projects before my decision to invest, only for her to advice me against it. She said we should instead, use the money to start farming. I didn't listen to her and went ahead to invest. THE RESULT: the investment that was supposed to take me to the moon now became more worthless than tissue paper! I shed tears because of this.

I now decided to get rid of her, but all plans of mine proved abortive. The more I tried to get her out of my life, the more we were brought together. Can you believe that the day I finally proposed to her was the very same day I tried to make out with an old girlfriend?

A friend of mine went to consult an ifa priest, who told him that my fiance has a cloud of good fortunes around her. But I don't believe in those spiritual mumbo-jumbos! I was determined to leave her. This made me begin applying for jobs in other states and towns, but nothing came forth. I even went for interview/test but didn't scale through. Some weeks later, she told me that she wasn't in support of me getting job in another town (she says she was scared of losing me).

Did you know? the time I decided to remove the thoughts of leaving her from mind and fully accept her into my life, was the time that I finally got a better job in another city!

MARRIAGE
We got married in 2019 and I was of the mindset that since she may be an ogbanje, therefore things would work in my favour and I would become a millionaire very quickly, but that's not the case.

Since marriage, any decision I take without her approval always leads to disaster!
I wanted to invest in a partnership deal and told her about it but she disapproved and said I should save the money instead. I went ahead to invest and I lost 400k! cry cry Same for other decisions in the house, the outcome was always negative whenever I don't heed her advice.

I hate all this! I'm a full grown man. Why should my life be based on the decisions of a woman? I feel like I'm no longer in control of my life.
I'm about to take a car loan from my company in order to escape this constant public commute and trekking but she has vehemently disapproved, that I should instead save for another year or two before buying car. But I still won't listen to her! If the loan ends in a disaster, I have decided that I would abandon this marriage and relocate to another country. A country where voodoo and religious mumbo-jumbo do not exist, so that I can be in full control of my life!

.......PS: we have a year old baby girl. Maybe I could be sending monthly upkeep from this new country I intend to relocate to.

Able readers, is my final decision a good one?


All your wahala so far is about the choices you made. I mean, what's wrong with her advising that you use your money for farming. You are pointing your fingers to the wrong person. Check yourself again AND BE RESPONSIBLE.

Crime / Re: Starboy Fizzy Commits Suicide As Pastor Says He Wants To Use Mum For Ritual by Elgaxton(m): 7:27pm On Jan 28, 2021
Always learn to judge prophecies and the word preached in general... 1 Corinthians 14: 3 But he who prophesies speaks to men for their edification, encouragement, and comfort.

Edification, Encouragement and Comfort.

Don't get deceived, in fact any prophecy that has no backing of God's word should jejely be discarded. We are allowed to judge prophecies and not to swallow everything, hook, line, sinker and even some people also swallow the fisherman as well.

R. I. P. to the deceased, he was simply misguided. May God strengthen the mother and give her enough wisdom to leave the church immediately.

humilitypays:
Fake news.


The video is doctored, this is an old video from a local beauty pageant organized in one remote community outskirt Lagos, if I can remember correctly, it was Badagry, and the winners were given foodstuffs and live animals as prize.


I remember some Nigerians mocking the organizers of the beauty pageant when the video first surfaced online earlier this year.



Stop spreading fake news and heating up our nation.


Lagos has been peaceful after the peaceful shooting of unarmed protesters at Lekki Toll Gate. I and my crew personally walked round Lagos to verify most of the fake videos of alleged looting and burning of properties and they were all lies, some were mostly old video clips from some war torn African countries and some from Northeast where Boko Haram have destroyed several communities.


I repeat, stop spreading fake news and causing more chaos! angry

Did you watch the video at all, are you saying that the winners of your so-called pageant were given COVID19 Labelled items as what they won?

friezerna:
Please help!! how do I genuinely give my life to Christ. I know the truth.
please help me
Very simple. Romans 10:
9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

Pray this prayer now:

Dear Father, I know that I am a sinner, I believe you sent Jesus to die for my sins and that He rose up on the third day for my justification. I confess that Jesus is the Lord of my life and I am born again and I am saved right now. Thank you for loving me.

iPhone 11 Pro camera vs Nokia 5.3 + GCAM

When it comes to picture quality and and camera strenght, give it to NOKIA any day, I mean their phone cameras are made by ZEISS Camera. If Nokia says it is 5MP, it is definitely 5MP unlike these new phones that just mention numbers any how because there is no physical instrument to measure cams.

Family / Re: How Do You Cope If Married To Someone You Don't Love? by Elgaxton(m): 10:14pm On Jul 06, 2020
ollins:
Let me cut the story short. Had a fling with this girl, along the line she got pregnant. You know all that talk of "if you could sleep with her, then you must marry her" "if you got her pregnant then you must marry her", Iooking back now, I wished I hadn't listened to all those voices.

I knew in my heart that I didn't love her, even she knew but the pressure from the family was too much, I had to marry her. On my marriage day I was practically crying within me.

Her character is just opposite of all I wanted in a woman, she's barely educated, loud and loquacious.

That's my cross I am carrying today, stuck in a loveless marriage.

The warmth and Romance is absent from our home, we have not had intimacy since beginning of the year till now, we just have no interest anymore in each other. We are just living together for the sake of our child.

My question now is how does one cope�? Is this how I am going to live the rest of my life?

For those of you who have been wishing that the church is closed, sorry to burst your bubble, I just came back from ongoing 21 days prayers from my church. There is no such thing. You can view the service from www.facebook.com/seeceuyo

Stop hating on the church and pray for foolish people who profess to be Christians

Philippians 3:17-21: “Brethren, join in imitating me, and mark those who so live as you have an example in us. For many, of whom I have often told you and now tell you even with tears, live as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their end is destruction, their god is the belly, and they glory in their shame, with minds set on earthly things. But our commonwealth is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will change our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power which enables him even to subject all things to himself.”

Family / Re: My Younger Sister And Porn: Is She Addicted Or Just Curious? by Elgaxton(m): 10:20pm On Jun 15, 2020
Crystalom3:
Hello Everyone

I have a little problem and it's really killing me.

As almost is a custom in our house, you don't get a phone until you're out of secondary school.

Lately, my little sister has been begging me for my phone to use. Sometimes for Facebook, sometimes for assignments or just browsing and stuffs.

But the problem is, she's always searching for porn. She's 17 now. I don't know if it's out of curiosity or if she's addicted to it.

Everytime I get my phone from her and I check the browser history, I'll see Google search for 'porn' 'pornography' and then website clicks.

She also searches for lesbian porns cry with many click through.

I don't know if she's just curious or if I should be concerned. I've stopped giving her my phone even though she do ask for it sometimes.

I've thought about talking to her but I really don't know where to start or how. We lost both of our parents already and are staying with my uncle and his wife and I don't really want to talk to the wife about this.

Please any advice?


Likely Peer pressure from Lesbians... Dont procrastinate on talking to her about this issue and dont attack her. Just let her know that she's on a wrong path. She needs your help right away.

All the Best
