Nairaland GeneralRe: Senators Support Autonomy, Wants INEC To Conduct LG Polls by elijames(m): 3:52pm On Jul 15, 2024
Yeah, I think it's a good move. Having INEC handle local elections might make them more credible and reduce interference. Plus, direct funding to local councils could help improve governance at the grassroots level.
TravelRe: USA Employment-based Immigration (EB-1,EB-2,EB-3 Visa) by elijames(m): 12:14pm On Jul 13, 2024
I wanted to chime in because I actually went through the EB-1 route a few years back. It was a bit of a process, but I managed to get my green card without needing a US employer. It’s a fantastic option if you have some solid achievements or advanced degrees. I know it’s not super well-known, especially in the Nigerian community, but it’s definitely worth exploring.
HealthRe: What Are The Long-term Outcomes Or Success Rates Associated With TMS Therapy? by elijames(m): 12:10pm On Jul 13, 2024
I've seen TMS work wonders for a friend of mine. They tried it after meds didn't really help, and it made a huge difference. Even months later, they're still doing a lot better. If you're thinking about it, I'd say go for it and chat with a psychiatrist who knows about TMS.
NYSCRe: Realtors Urgently Needed. Very Attractive Commissions. by elijames(m): 4:08pm On Jul 11, 2024

ProgrammingRe: Smart Home And Home Automation - How Did You Get Started? by elijames(m):
For this, you'll need smart bulbs or smart plugs, a hub (like a SmartThings Hub or a Zigbee/Z-Wave hub), and a smartphone app to control them. Start with a few devices and gradually expand as you become more comfortable. The hubs often come with good tutorials and community support that can help you get everything set up without too much hassle.

Speaking of smart home projects, I recently discovered how to connect Sonos to Home Assistant. It’s an excellent way to integrate your home sound system into your automation setup, allowing you to control music with voice commands or routines. Starting with lights is great, but once you're comfortable, integrating your audio system can add a lot of enjoyment and functionality to your smart home setup.

AutosRe: The Ultimate Guide To Fast And Expedited Auto Shipping: Tips, Benefits, And Faqs by elijames(m):
After researching various options, I found that expedited auto shipping services were the best solution. These services ensure quick and reliable transport, which was crucial for me. On a side note, I just bought a new car - a sleek, red Tesla Model 3. It's an amazing car with impressive acceleration, a long-range battery, and a beautiful minimalist interior.

In my search for a reputable shipping service, I came across an article about the Best Car Shipping Company - A1 Auto Transport.

RomanceRe: Is This An Original Rolex Watch? Is This Rolex Watch The Original One Or? Pics) by elijames(m):
From the pictures, it's hard to tell if it's an original Rolex without seeing the details up close. Things like the weight, the movement of the second hand (it should sweep smoothly), and the engravings can help determine if it's real. Original Rolex watches are very well-made and usually expensive, often starting at several thousand dollars.

I recently bought a Rolex replica, and honestly, the differences are minimal if you're not a watch expert. The replica looks and feels almost identical to the original. For everyday wear, a good replica can be a great choice without breaking the bank.

Christianity EtcRe: The Return Of Sodom And Gomorrah:the Legalization Of Same Sex Marriage by elijames(op): 3:30pm On Jul 13, 2015
If you think so, its fine by me. But i took this as one of the cogent reasons for the destruction.
Christianity EtcThe Return Of Sodom And Gomorrah:the Legalization Of Same Sex Marriage by elijames(op): 11:43am On Jul 13, 2015
Same sex marriage sometimes referred to as Gay marriage or gender neutral marriage is marriage between two people of the same sex. There had been world wide campaigns both against and for the trend in recent times, but some countries have gone ahead to legalize the marriages in their territories; countries like Belgium, Denmark, Portugal etc have this in practice. The most recent country to join the trend is the United State of America after a long silence and public pressure for the government to take a stand.
When the supreme court of the United States of America on June 26, 2015 made the declaration that same sex marriage is now legal, there were wild celebrations throughout the country as gay couples were seen kissing and making out in public. Though legally, it is now in practice, but religiously, it is still under debate as some schools of thought are going soft on their stand against it.
The Christian Faith's holy book- The Bible records in Genesis chapter 19 about the town of Sodom and Gomorrah and its perpetual sin of homosexuality which got to its peak when the locals were about to attack the messengers (angels) whom Lot played host to. Despite his offer of his two virgin daughters in exchange for the two men under his tent, it was met with stiff resistance. Biblical records tells that the men (angels) were sent to destroy the town due to its abominable acts, and Lot and his family were asked to leave the city for their safety and not to look back. The city was eventually razed down with fire.
Homosexuality, was widely practiced in the city and it gained public acceptance as it is gradually now. People are gradually coming out to declare their sexuality even as some who were married to the opposite sex have now gotten divorced in order to 'fit in' properly into their 'real life' which they have been hiding due to fear of societal scrutiny.
Several civil right groups have been in recent times campaigning for people to be allowed to choose their sexuality and whom to marry without fear of reproach and most recently, the campaigns have shifted grounds to allowing them to be able to adopt children.
The religious bodies - most especially the christian faith, whose holy book records the consequences of homosexuality and it being averse to God's will who created all things and beings in their kinds - male and female have actually not done enough as regards taking a stand against homosexuality. While some clergymen are preaching against it, others are going quite soft on them giving the reason to be that "as humans we should not judge".
A Calgary county cab man in Canada got suspended and may loose his licence because he was reported by two gay men whom he carried in his cab for calling their act 'disgusting' as they were making out at the back of his cab. This goes to show just how 'morally confused' the society is turning into in recent times.
The christian faith must do enough in discouraging this act; so do other religious faith if the trend will eventually die a natural death. If this cannot be achieved, if the religious bodies cannot or do not, we just have to pray and hope that sooner or later, destruction doesn't come to us.
Notwithstanding, if God doesn't eventually send down fire and brimstone on those practicing homosexuality, then a someone rightly said, "He owes the men of Sodom and Gomorrah an apology"

Hmmm... This one is delicate.
How can you fry egg without cracking the shell?

@Op, if she truly loves you, then there's absolutely no way you WON'T leave her heartbroken.

What are the red flags? Without them we can't truly know how to answer you properly.

But the best thing to do under this circumstance is to have her meet you at a private and cozy place.
And in your most gentlemanly manner, break the "bad news" calmly to her. She might cry, get terribly angry, insult you, get physically abusive, beg you or just walk away - anyone that comes, brace yourself for it.

The END.

Hey OP, can't you tell her that you don't like the flags and still see whether she'll change? Abi has she decided not to change?
My brother, she says that's the way I met her. And bla bla. It's always generating so much fuzz despite how calm I try to be about the whole thing

ITbomb:
Distance, lack of communication and distrust are the 3 things that wreck most relationship.
Choose any two

The first two may go together, distance reduces the passion (though it may heighten it on thoughts of the next meet). So mix it with reluctant response to phone calls (if you must answer)

The third one is setting up an infidelity stunt. Get the rumors out and don't explain anything.

If all fails (rarely on past experience), do the "Mum doesn't like you" or "My people do not like your people" stunt.

I bet you will have a mutual agreement to breakup and maybe can still be friends.
Thanks bro. Buh it's not easy

Please I need sincere responses.
I have been in this relationship for 8 months now with a very wonderful lady. At some point I had it in my mind to make this the last relationship I will have as I intend to settle down
But the challenge now is that I have been seeing so many red flags and this is making me to reconsider my position.
I don't think I would want to live a life of regret as I have realised she's isn't ready to make compromises.
My question now is, what is the proper way of ending this relationship without her saying I have broken her heart?
