Family › Re: Is Marriage A Contract Or Covenant by emiemi(f): 5:07pm On Apr 10, 2009

NeroPapas:
Nice topic. Pls I need help on how to post topics on this luvly site. Anyone with a way out could pls help!

Back to the main issue, marriage is a covenant ordained by God but it's unfortunate today that it's more of contract. Our women have managed to change the main reason for marriage and we men have foolishly concur to this ungodly act. And because the vision of marriage is not there, the marriage collapse before it's started.

We all need to repent, change our ways and start seeing marriage as something honorable that needs to enjoyed not endured.

sammyzacks:
contract annd covenant refer to the same thing.
in both cases as along as the terms are not broken, marriage is valid.
if you want you marriage to work, see it as a choice. A choice to love someone for who they are, so that even when the vows are broken you will still choose to stay with your partner. if you decide to truely love then nothing can come against your marriage.

true, but hard in reality because of the human nature

That's right! Let's not be dogma when issues of religion is mentioned in any discussion.

What's wrong doesn't have any other name, it's wrong. If the churches and other buildings

are illegally built, then they should all be demolished. Religion should not make us dumb, we
all have a brain and conscience, let's utilise them. Until we start doing that, I'm sorry we won't
be able to make the progress that we desire as a nation.

Family › Re: They Want Him To Marry A Dead Girl by emiemi(f): 5:34pm On Apr 07, 2009

What does the rite involve? If it is just a case of parents of the girl knowing the parents of the guy
and he accepting responsibility of taking care of the girl (though now dead but she has left some
offsprings- two for that matter), then it's not such a big deal. This will enable the girl's parent to be
able to trace the grandchildren and inlaws from time to time. The death of their child is an unfortunate
happening but then it could have still happened assuming they were married before she had those
children.
If it involves rituals beyond presenting gifts and paying some money to the girl's parents, then i object
vehemently to it.

@poster
Why did u marry her in the first place? Do you love her? I hope you did not marry her for sake of stay papers?
If you truly loved her and didn't marry her for selfish reasons, then you should all you gotta do is help her
become the 'perfect' lady you desire. Go out with hermore often, watch porn together and let her know what
your expectations are. She will also tell you one or two things she wants. Discuss having kids together and
generally plan your life together. It's not as easy as it sounds though but with time, your love for each other will grow
stronger. Pls divorce is not the best solution to marital problems.

The truth is that protecting your pin is not enough, i know some guys who only need to get hold af an ATM card and the work is done.

Iyen tun ko? This country is full of shit!!

I remember the maximum you can withdraw used to be 40000, why was it increased to 100, 000
considering the kind of nation that we are in? This has increased the risk geometrically in a case
like the poster's? And I bet, he might not be able to get his money back. How many more people
have fallen victim of ATM fraud who are not internet users and who won't know how to go about
the loss? Argghhh angry

Career › Re: Global Meltdown: I Have Just Been Sacked by emiemi(f): 10:56am On Apr 04, 2009

This is to all of us who are holding on to 9 - 5 jobs and are
thinking ''well, my own job is secured''. This is the REALITY
of the so-called job security. Let him that thinks he stands
check well lest he fall. We all know we need to do something
else apart from our regular job, but how many people actually
do? The oil and gas sector is getting the heat more in Nigeria.
Let's begin to create something and also save for the rainy
day.

Romance › Re: Ladies: Could You Possibly Date Your Driver? by emiemi(f): 10:18am On Apr 04, 2009

I am a married woman, I don't have a driver now( i drive myself).
So to imagine a situation where I have a driver and have him as
a , what? well, it's not possible for me. What will I b looking for
that I don't possibly have already?

Going back to when I was single, the scenario might not be exactly
the same as now. I earn well and can afford a driver; do I have a fiance
or am I old and feeling like it too? Even if that is the case, I don't think
i can date my driver not because he is not a man but because I won't
even have considered him in that light.

For the many ladies who say they could possibly do it, pray do
tell how many such cases have we heard of a single woman marrying
her driver? There is nothing done in secret y'know. Sooner or later everybody
will get to hear it. tongue

I am in the medical feild and work with the deaf often. How come in over 10 years I have not had a single patient who was cured miraculously? And mind yoy I have worked in some of the biggest teaching hospitals. None of my collegues has a documented case either.

Here's someone stating 'his' own fact. If all the claims of your pastor and programs

are true, we should get people stating 'their' facts with references that could

be checked. But alas, no such evidences, as such you have no testimony hubreality.

When Jesus healed the man that was blind from birth, he was taken into the synagogoue

and QUESTIONED (check evidence). His parents and neighbours and friends were

all witnesses to the fact. God is not a MAN that he would LIE dear bro!!

First question: What does your wife do? Or she just pokenoses into your biz?
Second question: What does the marriage mean to you?

I think your wife needs a job or biz of her own so that she will give you
the chance to concentrate on yours. That way, you guys will be able to
meet the family needs and also increase in individual value.

My bro, whoever marries is supposed to obtain favour from the one who
instituted it. So, your wife is not your enemy (except u marry witch) but
rather one who is to help you remain focussed and grow your unit of the nation.

Just my take!

I can clearly see your problem. you are ~~not~~ a qualified comedian

saintade01:
[size=14pt][/size] , so what happened if he tested positive to any of the STD's ? she pack her things and leave?

Nooooo. marriage is for better for worse. whateever it is she continues in the life term contract.
So what difference does it make?

You don't seem to get d point Saintade. If the disease is left untreated for a long time
then it might cause more damage than if detected/treated early enough.

As per the life term contract dear, use your head. Women are not slaves, i repeat
women are not slaves. Your life as a woman should not end simply becos you
got married like the case that was put up earlier about the husband giving the wife
HIV and not wanting her to even find out. We should go for tests at least once
in year (doctors' recommendation) in order to detect ailment and diseases early.

Culture › Re: What Do You Hate About Your Culture? by emiemi(f): 12:03pm On Apr 03, 2009

otele:
what i hate most in nigeria culture is a situation where poor people ''worship'' the rich. sycophancy. this is brought into politics and terribly weakens our so called democracy. hence, anybody who looses election tries to enter the good books of the winner instead of forming a credible opposition

My sentiments exactly too. There is this woman that is like 15years older than me around my area (we actually go to the same church).
Her first child has finished secondary school and is hoping to gain admission into the university. She respescts me so much she tells me
enle ma, epele ma, ese ma, odabo ma, anything ma. It gives me the creeps cos I know it's all sycophancy. I pointed this out to a friend
and the person said I shouldn't try to mention it to her that she is just respecting me (for what?) I should show her respect (which I do)
because she is older but not even with the ma, ma every darn statement I make. I hope to tell her to address me just like her junior one.
Honestly, I don't dig this yeye patronising at all. And like otele has mentioned, it goes beyond the neighbourhood greetings into politics,
church and it's just not positive.

Culture › Re: What Do You Hate About Your Culture? by emiemi(f): 11:50am On Apr 03, 2009

I hate the HYPOCRISY in Nigerian culture. We pretend to be what we aren't all in the name of culture.

I hate the calling of a senior one broda and aunty. Respect is mostly in action not in words. Most of our so-called culture has

kept us in the dark age when other nations of the world are moving on to heights unimaginable.
