Remember you fell in love with him for some of his qualities. It was not just looks that drew you to him. “True love is not about loving a perfect person, but learning to live with his imperfections.”

When you are in love, it’s important to have and show mutual respect. As a lover, you can afford to take some liberties.

However, there are few things that are better left unsaid. Irrespective of the fact that your guy is the coolest man on the planet, there are things he might not appreciate hearing from especially you even if it has some truth to it.
Here are a few common statements that most girls make (consciously or unconsciously) that give rise to conflict.

You are a momma’s boy:
Even though most men are momma’s boys, they hate to hear that especially from you! In some cases, the guy would have liked for some of your qualities that matches with his mom. So, you stating the obvious would be a disaster. Says Shweta Raghuram, a student, “I would hear him say I care the same way as his mom does. But the day I told him he was mom’s pet, he hit the roof!” Every person is touchy about his/her mother and he’s no exception. Hence, avoid bringing his mom into your conversation with him. It would be suicidal for the relationship if you do so.

Ugh! your friends:
No matter how much you love your guy, there are two things most girls can’t stand about men — his love for sports and most importantly the boy gang he loves to hang around with. Irrespective of the fact that his friends are a decent bunch, you still hate to hear him say he enjoys drinking with them. But expressing your concern to him is a big ‘no no’. “He would neither want you to point fingers at his friends, nor is he comfortable to let you praise them. It’s a dicey situation,” says, Sreevalli M. Dating or married, most guys hate to let go of their friends and shift their focus fully on you!

You are always like this:
Remember you fell in love with him for some of his qualities. It was not just looks that drew you to him. “True love is not about loving a perfect person, but learning to live with his imperfections.” Remember this cheesy line? The next time you wanna crib about his attitude, reminding yourself of this will save you a lot of trouble. Says Harsha Sharma, a techie, “Would she like it if I said you will never change? Mutual respect helps keep the relationship in good shape.”

We need to talk:
Oh no! Not again! This four-word statement is sure to make his temper soar! You realise that either of you saying ‘Let’s talk’ means trouble in paradise! Men hate drama, so if you must talk, get candid and to the point! Says Arunima Chatterjee, “It helps to talk it out when your relationship hits a road block. However, using these words would only mean a threat. Instead, ask him to meet up for coffee and talk your heart out.”

My Ex never did this:
No comparisons please! This is the most sensitive topic that’s best avoided. He already hates the fact that you previously dated somebody. Now, bringing your Ex into your relationship would mean war! Comparing your guy with your ex will hurt his ego and you know how men are! They will never like it one bit! To save your relationship, let bygones be bygones. For any relationship to work, it’s important to appreciate the person for what he is rather then pushing him to change which will ultimately boomerang on you. He might end up saying things like “Why don’t you go back to him!” Hence, it’s wise to weigh your words before speaking.

You are going bald:
With innumerable chemical-based products of reputed brands available in the market, you are spoilt for choice. Excessive trial and error methods result in disaster. With the kind of lifestyle, protecting your crowning glory has become quite a challenge. More so with men who tend to lose hair too soon and for whom the receding hairlines are very noticeable. That is definitely one of his major worries too. So this is the last thing you would want to tell him.

Just when we thought Davido was finally free of controversy, the Pop star has been tangled up again, this time in East Africa…

A ‘Kenyan socialite’ is claiming she slept with the young Nigerian singer this past weekend while he was in the country for a performance at the Bombaata Festival which also featured Nigerian artiste Ice Prince, singer Victoria Kimani and some other Kenyan acts.

Staciey Brianar popularly known as Pendo is alleging she got to have a sexual encounter with the Davido hours after the concert ended, claiming to have hooked up with him at a Kenyan night club ‘Galileo’.

Pendo seemed to have a whole to say: the controversial young Kenyan lady in a lengthy chat with a Kenyan blog took time to narrate her experience with Davido.

Pendo says she met up with Davido hours before the show through HKN Gang’s Deekay. ‘I made my way there, got to at long last meet Deekay, my long-time pal from HKN and through him; I made my way to skyluxx for the play house party where all of us stuck up in the VIP area. I knew I had won my jackpot so there was nothing to worry about. As a matter of fact, he (Davido) had spotted me too; we talked in a way only the two of us could understand’, Pendo narrates.

Pendo says she wasn’t worried if Davido was going to choose another girl to take back to his hotel room after the ‘after party’ so she didn’t even bother going for the show…

‘I had my fun n made my way home ready for the big day as I said I was not worried, so there’s was no time in me hustling to go to the backstage as other girls did…no! I had my food ready to eat, after the event, my friend Deekay (HKN) buzzed me and asked me to turn up that he (Davido) was asking for me. I made my way to Galileo with my girlfriends, I minded my own business until he spotted me and asked his DJ to come get me, I still had no rush to be seen hanging out with him or anything, so I sat down n had my drink that he offered’, she continues her story.

Pendo says when it was time to leave the hangout spot, the organizers thought it best for them to leave in separate cars just to avoid the media. ‘So David paid for my cab that followed them directly to the hotel located in Hurlingham. When I got there, he sent his deejay (DJ Olu) to give me his key card to his room as he talked to someone. He escorted me to the room and the rest is self-explanatory’.

Now, Pendo is known for spinning stories to get mentioned on blogs and social network (she’s also been mentioning @Iam_Davido on Twitter) so everybody is finding this story hard to believe. But then again, she must be one damn good storyteller too!

The young lady has even gone on to describe her alleged sexual encounter with the young pop star, revealing Davido is one of the best she’s ever done it with, describing him as ‘Perfect’.

‘He was perfect. He is much better than your ‘average Kenyan’. He is big. Both length and width and best part is he really knows what he is working with. He has crazy moves; he kept it fresh for a couple hours. I am impressed. Definitely the best, ok maybe not the best I ever had, but he is up there’, Pendo told another Kenyan blog, the African Eagle.

She also praised him for not only being a ‘good lover’ but also a gentleman…

‘Not only did he not publicise the affair, but he left me with some personal mementos to remember him. I don’t think a one night stand does that. Plus there is still communication going on. I’m not saying we are dating, but we are definitely still talking. He did not ‘hit it and quit it’.

Pendo also says she didn’t bother taking pictures and definitely didn’t do it for the money…

‘I didn’t get money from him. I didn’t want money from him. I did it simply because I find him hot and he is pretty legit in the music industry in Africa. Yeah, I am attracted by his talent, his fame, his power, but honestly, who isn’t?’, she said.

Now whether true or not, this isn’t the first or the second time Davido has gotten himself tangled in some hotel room controversy – in February 2012, an 18-year-old undergraduate Sonia leaked pictures of herself and Davido half-naked in bed while in Ghana. Eight months and 17 days later, another set of bedroom photos showing Davido and some other girl leaked on the internet.

As some world economies recover, analysts and investors are looking at the enormous possibilities for growth and development in Africa. Though unemployment in some African nations reportedly remains higher than 25 percent, general numbers are improving, and many believe that emerging economies in Africa are set to expand rapidly in the coming years.

With more than 70 percent of Africa’s population under the age of 25, no one doubts that there is a massive untapped workforce — and if trends continue toward more political stability, less regulation and increased private investment, it’ll be easy to see why some analysts are so optimistic. Opportunities for employment and entrepreneurship in Africa might skyrocket in the next decade, but for young adults entering the workforce now, many wonder where the best opportunities are. Here’s a quick look at some of the most promising professions in Africa’s developing nations.

1.Investment Banking
Global investment is flooding back into Africa and fast approaching 2008 levels. Investment banking is one of the hottest fields to work in right now. Investment bankers typically help government agencies, companies, and organizations raise money by issuing and selling securities in the open market. In Nigeria, senior investment bankers can make as much as 13 million naira ($82,000) per year.


2. Telecommunications Engineers
Telecommunications is taking Africa by storm as new technologies become available and more countries reduce regulations. Ninety percent of all telephone communication in Africa takes place on mobile phones, although some locales are still catching up. Telecommunications engineers typically combine electrical engineering and computer science to design and oversee the development of complex communications and data infrastructures and switching systems.

3.Oil & Petroleum Industry Engineers
Recent oil and gas discoveries in East Africa and the Gulf of Guinea suggest a very positive outlook for the industry’s continued growth. All told, African countries are responsible for roughly 7 percent of world oil production — and that number is expected to rise. Numerous engineering disciplines are needed in the oil and gas industry. Jobs include exploration managers, drilling engineers, and mechanical engineers.

4.Airline Pilots
As local airlines open up new routes and major worldwide airlines schedule more international flights into Africa, the demand for airline pilots is growing. Experienced airline pilots in Nigeria make as much as 11 million naira ($70,000) per year, and as demand grows, salaries are expected to rise.

5.Software and Web Developers
As broadband slowly penetrates the African market, the need for localized websites and business-related software is expected to grow, creating new demand for designers, programmers and cyber-security professionals all over the continent. Software Development managers in South Africa make an average of $13,500 per year.

6.Physicians
There’s been high demand for physicians of all disciplines in Africa for several years. As a result, doctors are making dramatically higher salaries. There are many job opportunities, specifically for obstetricians, anesthesiologists, pediatricians, emergency room doctors as well as dentists.

7.Real Estate Developer
Developing properties for commercial purposes from shopping centers to industrial complexes has always been a profitable business. Though many markets around the world are oversaturated, Africa has tremendous opportunity for growth. Investors say that retail development is currently in a period of rapid expansion, particularly in Nigeria and Ghana.

8.Construction Manager
Urbanization trends and the growing middle class in many African nations will translate into a tremendous need for new construction. Global investment in new projects is already driving the construction of new townships and cities in Kenya, Ghana and Nigeria. The new cities are built following the work-play-live model which is popular in modern western developments.

9.Hotel Manager
North Africa boasts some of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, and a variety of hotel chains are already well-established. Now, new hotels are popping up all across sub-Saharan Africa to accommodate business travelers. The world’s largest hotel chains have even more ambitious plans for the future. The average salary for hotel managers in South Africa is $15,500 per year.




10.Advertising Sales Director
Broadband penetration in new African markets means more media outlets and new online opportunities. Advertising through these media to the growing middle class in many countries is a wide-open field that may have little impact today, but is expected to be in high demand in the years to come.

She was known as the world’s hottest porn star, with over 275 starring roles behind her – but now Jenna Presley has turned her back on the adult industry that left her suicidal and embraced God thanks to a campaigning church.

After seven years of filming sex scenes up to three times a day, Presley’s life fell off the rails as she descended into a drink and drugs fueled depression – before she met members of the anti-porn XXXChurch at a convention.

Known for picketing porn sets and conventions to hand out Bible’s titled, ‘Jesus Loves Porn Stars’, the XXXChurch managed to convince Presley, whose real name is Brittni Ruiz, 26, that she should choose God over a career in the sex industry.

Speaking in a YouTube video released over the weekend to mark her re-birth as a Christian, Ruiz emphatically declares, ‘Thank you, Jesus! I found him, I’m home.’

‘It’s been a long seven-year journey of porn, prostitution, stripping, drugs, alcohol and several failed suicide attempts.’

In an interview with Rachel Collins, who Ruiz met at pornography conventions, the former porn star tells the XXXChurch member how she entered the porn industry at the age of 18.

Before that she began her career at a topless dancer in Mexico where she was recruited by a talent scout from the porn industry.

Beginning shooting porn almost the second she became 18, Ruiz made her first start in X-rated hardcore movies, shooting up to three sex scenes a day, being paid around $900 for each movie.

Her career took off. In 2006, she came in second place on ‘Jenna’s American Sex Star’, a reality TV show hosted by porn legend Jenna Jameson.

In 2010, Maxim magazine named her one of the top 12 hottest porn stars in the world.

On filming her first scene, Ruiz said, ‘I felt so loved that day because I was put in hair and makeup. I was told I was beautiful. I was going to be a star.’

However, Ruiz was introduced to the seedy and desperate side of the porn industry very soon afterwards as producers made her work relentlessly and dressed her up to look extremely young.

Director of Fugees’ 1996 award winning music video, ‘Killing Me Softly’, Aswad Ayinde has been sentenced to 90 years in prison for raping and impregnating his own daughters



According to reports by the Dailymail, Ayinde, 55, fathered six children with his daughters from the mid-1980s until 2002 and was charged with 27 counts, including aggravated sexual assault, sexual assault, lewdness, child endangerment, aggravated criminal sexual contact and criminal sexual contact.

In his defence, Ayinde disclosed that he was trying to create a ‘pure family bloodline’ by impregnating his daughters. He even claimed that ‘the world was going to end, and it was just going to be him and his offspring and that he was chosen.’

In an effort to conceal the family secret, Ayinde’s daughters were home schooled and isolated from other children and in most cases, he delivered the babies himself.

This recent trial for which he has been sentenced to 50 years is Ayinde’s second, which adds to the 40 years sentence he received in a 2011 trial for sexually assaulting a separate daughter.

He was sentenced at the Passaic County Courthouse in Paterson on Friday July 26.

In 1996, Ayinde received the ‘Best R&B Video’ awards at the MTV Music Video Awards for directing the music video for Fugees’ 1996 breakout hit ‘killing Me Softly’.

Jealousy is the one that gets the most attention, but surprise feelings can take all kinds of shapes: anger, fear, sadness, envy, inadequacy. Being in an open relationship means confronting the limits of your relationships,….

Sometimes, open relationships just suck.

I say this as someone who’s been practicing responsible, open, non-monogamy my whole adult life. I’m normally a cheerleader for open relationships, especially in my writing. There are plenty of misconceptions about what open relationships are like, and too few voices talking about how great it is to send your husband off to his date night and have the house to yourself for a few hours. I love talking about the good parts.

It’s not all good, though. I’m going to take a moment to explore some of the hard parts.

1. Needing a Teleporter - It’s always somebody’s birthday at the same time as someone else’s violin recital. Or worse, somebody’s broken heart needs soothing at the same moment someone else has a car break down and needs a rescue. I can’t be in two places at once, try as I might, and I often feel torn between competing sets of needs. This might seem obvious, but it is hands down consistently my least-favorite thing about being poly. I want to be every good thing in my loved ones’ lives, and the tug-of-war over my priorities just rubs in the fact that I’m simply human, with painful limitations on what I can offer even to the people I love most.

2. Spillover - When things are good in my life, they tend to be good all over. And similarly, when they’re bad they are horrid, as the saying goes. Relationship stress tends to ripple out and affect other relationships. One partner has a jealous fit because I’m spending too much time with another, who in turn gets upset because I’m suddenly distant and stressed out in response, and the difficulty with those two causes me to be distracted and less available to a third, who then feels alienated by my lack of attention. Just for example.

3. Surprise! Big Feelings - Jealousy is the one that gets the most attention, but surprise feelings can take all kinds of shapes: anger, fear, sadness, envy, inadequacy. Being in an open relationship means confronting the limits of your relationships, and it can be all too easy to start comparing yourself to someone else in your lover’s life. You might feel fine about some aspect of your partner’s relationship with their other lover, and then, boom, you’re emotionally overwhelmed.

4. Scheduling - Ask any poly person what they love least about their lifestyle and you’ll hear a rousing chorus of “scheduling!” Trying to keep the logistics of several people’s social lives straight is a nightmare, even when everyone is happily getting their needs met. On top of the logistical hassles, scheduling often becomes the dumping ground for people’s sublimated feelings about bigger things. Every social outing can start to fill imbued with meaning.

5. Loss - Daring to love means opening yourself up to the possibility of loss. Lives and relationships change, people grow apart or move away or evolve into needing different things. I don’t know if poly-amorous relationships are more likely to end than monogamous ones. I’ve seen data saying they’re about equally stable, but there’s not a lot of research on the topic. What I do know is that people in open relationships tend to form interdependent networks of relationships, so one relationship changing or ending affects many others. My husband and his girlfriend recently scaled back their relationship and the impact has rippled out onto our marriage and even put strain on my other relationships.

Bonus Point: Social Stigma - Being poly means being on the fringes of the relationship landscape. Even if you have a job where it’s safe to be out about your personal relationships and friends and family who warmly accept your choices, it’s still hard. Your relationships aren’t reflected in popular culture, social assumptions are all built around monogamy and even in the best-case scenario, where everyone you love fully accepts your choices, you still have to explain yourself and push back against the assumption of monogamy as a default state.

Now, I don’t know from experience, but it’s my impression that monogamous relationships have to deal with these issues too, with the possible exception of social stigma. In fact, these troubles aren’t limited to romantic relationships at all. I have these issues with my kids and my parents, my friends and my colleagues, as well as with my lovers. The problem isn’t polyamory, it’s simply the shadow side of attempting intimacy of any kind with another human being. When we get close to people, we make ourselves vulnerable to hurt and entangle our own needs to some extent with other people’s. That said, some of these problems arise in particular ways that are unique to polyamory, and it’s worth paying attention to that.

Do you flirt on Facebook? Do you sext? Do you kiss women who are not your wife or girlfriend and consider it a perfectly innocent act?

If so, you may be cheating without knowing it. A new poll has revealed that men and women have very different ideas about what constitutes infidelity, which means that your act of harmless fun might have pretty dire consequences if your partner takes a different view.

So what is cheating and what isn’t? We delve into the brave new world of 21st century sexual mores.

Sexting

According to the new poll, commissioned by the Huffington Post, 85% of women claim that sexting – sending sexual texts to someone other than your partner – is cheating, despite the absence of any physical contact.

The good news is that, according to the poll, 74% of men feel the same way. The bad news is that there’s a hardcore 9% who may soon be in for a very rude awakening.

The fact that the majority of both men and women view sending sexual texts as cheating, despite the absence of physical contact, is probably sensible. Recent research by psychologists at the University of Nebraska in the US found that sexters often escalate their behaviour into real world affairs. Nearly eight out of 10 respondents had made arrangements to meet someone face to face after initially communicating via text.

But while that may be true, not everyone agrees that sexting – or any sexually charged virtual relationship – counts as cheating. In his book In Defense of Sin, John Portmann, assistant professor of religious studies at the University of Virginia, says we have to distinguish between sex – and just talking about sex.

“The internet has not given us a new way to have sex, but rather an absorbing new way to talk about sex. Distinguishing between flirting and infidelity will show that talking dirty, whether on the internet or on the phone, does not amount to having sex.”

So is sexting with someone other than your partner cheating? There’s a certain amount of intellectual debate about the matter, but for the sake of your relationship it’s probably best to assume your partner will think it is.

Most men and women take a dim view of sexting

Facebooking

In many ways flirting with someone other than your significant other on Facebook touches on the same ground as sexting. Let your banter stray into the realms of the sexual and your partner is likely to take a very dim view.

But the Huffington Post study focused specifically on contacting an ex through Facebook, something the ubiquitous social networking site makes temptingly easy.

And there was a discrepancy between men and women on the issue. Around 42% of women would not consider it cheating if a partner contacted an ex via Facebook, while a significantly larger proportion of men – 56% – would take the relaxed view.

An interesting detail is that the study didn’t consider what someone might be contacting an ex for. In other words, whatever your motives for contacting a former girlfriend via Facebook, and however innocent you think they might be, there’s a good chance your current partner will regard it as tantamount to infidelity.

Facebook makes it easy to contact an ex

Other internet contact

She’ll do so partly because there’s a large gender divide when it comes to forming an emotional connection over the internet, regardless of whether it ever strays into sexting or suggestive Facebook posts.

According to the Huffington Post poll, 70% of women would consider it a serious betrayal if their partner formed such a bond, but only 50% of men felt the same way.

That’s a pretty serious finding. Half of men think it fine to to enter into a virtual relationship most women consider cheating, or at least next door to cheating.

Physical contact

But perhaps the most surprising finding involved actual physical contact. You might think the sexes would be far more consistent in their view of what constituted cheating in the real – as opposed to virtual – world.

When is cheating cheating? Not when it only involves kissing, say many men. Sixty percent of the men surveyed said that kissing was OK – even on the lips – presumably so long as contact doesn’t get any more intimate than that.

It will come as no surprise that most women didn’t agree. Only 34% of women felt the same way.

But there has been some debate over the issue of kissing and infidelity lately, suggesting that it is far from a black and white issue. In a recent article, the American comedian Mindy Kaling (yes, a woman) suggested that couples should be allowed to kiss other people. They just shouldn’t take it any further.

“I’m not saying that kissing is a hundred per cent peril-free,” wrote Kaling. “I’m just saying it should be treated like any other enjoyable (but legal) vice, such as alcohol or gambling. In other words, it just needs to be regulated.”

So maybe those men who refuse to equate kissing someone else with cheating have a point. Having said that, it’s not one that’s likely to go down well with wives or girlfriends. It seems the gender divide between men and women on what is and isn’t cheating is wide, so it might be best to err on the side of caution.

Man, just when we were getting bummed out over the lack of Lady Gaga sightings as of late (well, minus that time she stepped out in just a bra), Mother Monster comes out of hiding in THE most monumental way possible—by getting totally naked for V Magazine. And, guys, we’re not exaggerating—she’s absolutely, positively without ANY clothing or accessories. The photo, shot by the infamous Inez and Vinoodh duo, features Gaga perched on a stool with out of this WORLD side-parted blonde waves, a swipe of orange shadow on the lids, and, well, not much else. (Like, not even her signature stiletto talons!) *gulp*
This is just one photo from V Magazine’s September spread (and cover shoot?) with the ARTPOP queen, but along with this image, a 23-second long video featuring Mother Monster herself also hit the internet. To be totally honest, we don’t know WHAT to make of Gaga staring at us while sucking on an old mannequin hand (if that’s what that even is), but in it, she also sports the same type of minimalistic makeup from the magazine: shiny, neutral lids with coral blush, barely-there lip gloss and a straight brunette ‘do. Whew, we can’t WAIT to see what upcoming ARTPOP goodness Gaga has in store for us, but we’re gonna be ready for anything. But tell us—what do you think of Gaga’s barely-there fashion look? Let us know in the comments below!

One shell of a body … Heidi
Heidi Klum puts a smile on the face of her followers by posting a topless snap – complete with happy face on her tum.

The supermodel – who turned 40 last month – made the grinning character out of sand and seashells as she sunbathed in black and white patterned bikini bottoms.

And she covered her bare boobs with her hands in the headless selfie.

The Project Runway star flaunted her amazing figure and taut tummy in the Twitter snap.

She captioned the picture with a simple: “Smile!”

The German beauty, who started dating bodyguard Martin Kristen after her 2012 split from husband Seal in 2012, has recently been in the Bahamas for a sun-soaked break.

When you see a woman slap a man on the street, chances are you didn’t think to yourself how awful it is that she resorted to violence; instead, you probably wonder what he did to deserve it.

Being a man isn’t as easy as the world would have you believe. We have our own set of problems and vulnerabilities, some small, even funny, and others large and painful. We also live with the constant expectation to be strong and to keep our issues to ourselves.

So without further ado, here are 10 of the most annoying things about being a man.

10. Hair Everywhere
Hair. Hair everywhere. On your neck. Down your back. On your chest and stomach. It varies from man to man, and, hey, some of it can be attractive or serve a purpose. The hair under your arms wicks sweat effectively. But what purpose do the hairs on your feet or knuckles serve, and why do some men have small bushes of hair coming out of their ears? Even waking up early every morning to shave your beard in some desperate attempt not to look like a hobo or an alcoholic can rankle the most stoic of men. One word, my friend: manscaping.

9. Random Erections

One of life’s cruel ironies is that when you’re young and virile and pitching tents at every glimpse of bare skin — say, in high school math class — you’re less likely to be able to enjoy your virility. When you’re older and more established, more likely to have options, even something as routine as “getting it up” can be a problem.

8. Testicles Getting In The Way
Rare is the moment in the average man’s life when he can forget that he has a pair of balls dangling between his legs. If you own a laptop, you’ve probably wondered if having it on your lap will cook your sperm and lower your fertility. And you’ve definitely agonized over whether to go boxers or briefs.

7. Bad Sex Is Always The Man’s Fault
When it comes to sex, the pressure is disproportionately on the man to perform. To begin with, he has to get it up, which is something heavily dependent on his level of attraction to the woman, his comfort, his health and, not least of all, his sobriety. So when we do, and it’s happening, why is it only our fault if it’s bad? Shocker alert: Women can be bad at sex, too.

6. Mistaken For A Pedophile
God forbid a father wants to walk hand-in-hand with his son or daughter, or take his child to the playground to play with other children. There is a culture of hysteria surrounding men and children that has made men afraid to be physical, to pick up, hug and cuddle their own kids. That’s just not fair.

5. Condoms
Condoms help prevent pregnancy and the spread of STDs. They also suck. A lot. They’re a hassle to buy in the appropriate size, they’re often difficult to put on and going through the process of opening the package tends to be a mood killer.

4. Getting Called A Creep By Women
The onus is on men to approach women. It’s our job to say hello to a total stranger who happens to catch our eye on the off chance that she’ll enjoy our company. And in that brief interaction, in a bar or club or coffee shop, things can go horribly, horribly wrong. The end result of your failed approach might mean the dreaded “creep” label (variants include “creeper” and “weirdo”), and nothing quite hurts a man’s pride, or his chances of approaching another woman, quite like being so negatively labeled.

3. The Fighting Double Standard
When it comes to fighting, there’s a terrible double standard at play. We are expected by society not to fight, to keep calm and find a nonviolent resolution to conflict. But when the local bar bully is insulting your honor, or, worse, that of your girlfriend, there’s an expectation that you take him out back and beat some politeness into him. When confronted with this situation, a man has two choices: fight and be considered a violent neanderthal, or don’t fight and be considered a wuss.

2. Getting Slapped In The Face
There’s one act of physical violence that gets used with alarming frequency: men getting slapped in the face. When you see a woman slap a man on the street, chances are you didn’t think to yourself how awful it is that she resorted to violence; instead, you probably wonder what he did to deserve it.

1. The Pain Of Getting Hit In the Groin
It happens in a split second and only lasts a few minutes at most, but those few minutes are filled with excruciating pain, cursing and the fleeting thought that maybe you’ve finally taken one too many shots to the groin to be able to have children.

Giving people due praise in Nigeria is as rare as finding a three-breasted woman, which is why Sanni Abacha still doesn’t get his due praise as devil incarnate and Turai Yar’Adua as Lady Macbeth reloaded. A single woman held us all by our balls (insert image of all our balls in her hands) and we tagged her as being just ambitious? 

Our inborn arrogance dictates that we naturally believe that we can do better than whatever anyone thinks he/she has accomplished. That is what it means to be Nigerian. I am the only exception to the rule; I am daily confounded by your recognition of my genius. It is the worthy praise that I constantly receive that has informed my decision to lay before you the solution to global warming, after laughing my prestigious black hairy ass off while watching pedestrian scientists make a fool of themselves by proposing kindergarten solutions to something any genius worth his weight in bags of garri, like me, would have dealt with in an instant. Mere mortals really should not overreach themselves.

First, the bare facts: Global warming is here and there’s nothing we can do to stop it. If you had any doubt, I’m sure the recent heat wave would have fried such doubt out of your brain: we had 46 degrees on some days in Lagos sometime ago and torrential rain that led to flooding followed. Great stuff. Half of the heat in hell + half the flood that rocked Noah’s ark…really great stuff. The earth can’t be saved, no matter what you do. You may break all the yellow bulbs in your house and your street, eat grass, walk everywhere (preferably naked) instead of driving, grow a tree on your head…we are still doomed! Apparently, water expands when heated. With the kind of sunlight we’ve had recently (I saw a policeman’s brain melt out through his ears at Obalende.

Just enough to fill a teaspoon though, seeing that he was a Nigerian policeman) the Atlantic shall soon expand and consume the whole of Victoria Island, except for Yellow Chilli: the food is too good and prices too moderate for a place like that to go down! I can’t wait to see offices and hotels go belly up, EKO Hotel, especially. $400 per night piece of crap! Someday soon, we all will come to the realisation that V.I is the biggest slum in Lagos; we already know that the biggest mosquitoes and rats live there. That Atlantic City place Fashola, Tinubu, the Chagourys and their cohorts are building is primed for a tsunami…you watch.

To stem the effect of all this and keep our dear Naija safe, we need to do the following:
1.         Move all residents of V.I, Lekki and such places to Sango-Ota. It is full of green fields, a welcome change from the concrete jungle of their pitiable existence.
2.         Since we are currently handing over everything to Dangote, we need to quickly hand over the Atlantic Ocean to him so he can bag all the salt and sell the water to us as pure water. This will ensure that there will be no future flooding.
3.         We must insist that all Pentecostal yearnings for the descent of heavenly fires must be stopped immediately. The advent of global warming dictates that calling fire on anybody, even enemies, is an irresponsible act capable of wrecking havoc on an already bad situation. Ice could be an alternative. ‘Ice, Ice, Ice…Father rain ice on my enemies!!!)
4.         Also, God has got to discard the idea of a hell. The idea of hell as a physical place has always been suspicious but global warming has made it expedient that God abandons the thought altogether. Since the ozone layer is all but destroyed and heaven/hell is supposedly above, we can’t have constant burning fire anywhere, much less above. God has to come up with a new plan to punish the damned.

Ideas, anyone? Please tweet your ideas to Him @GodAlmighty. I have said my own.

Much thanks to the mod that moved it to Romance, Frontpage and more importantly posted the complete news. I didn't get as much view as I wanted but I am so happy for the number of people that read it here on Nairaland. U guys are amazing! Even a lady admitted to having lied all those Lies. Visit my site for latest music, videos, romantic stories, relationship, fashion and weird stories. Thanks.

The longer you have been living a lie, the deeper the damage, the more difficult the possibility of a full recovery, and the longer the healing process takes.

So you cheated on your partner. Now what? Leading relationship experts tell you how to move forward.

Few people would argue with the idea that honesty is the best policy. Policies however are not always adhered to, even those that we believe in and support. Regardless of how much we may desire to live a life of integrity in which we “walk the talk” and live in accordance with our inner principles, it’s likely that there will be times that we miss the mark. Nobody’s perfect. Every relationship is going to have occasional slippage.

Great relationships however, require a high level of integrity in order to thrive. When a violation of trust, large or small, occurs it’s important to examine the conditions that contributed to the situation and to engage in a healing process that will restore trust and goodwill to the relationship.

A betrayal is a broken agreement, implicit or explicit, that is considered vital to the integrity of a relationship. The capacity of a relationship to recover from a betrayal has a lot to do with the responses, particularly on the part of the betrayer to the situation. The more open and non-defensive they are, the more likely it is that there will be resolution. When both partners are committed to this as an outcome, the likelihood increases exponentially.

When there has been a cover-up to a transgression, the lies and denials can do much more damage to the integrity of the relationship than the violation itself. Even if the offense is never revealed, there can still be great harm done to the foundation of the relationship. Trust is inevitably sacrificed even when secrets go undetected. Most, but not all betrayals and acts of deceit can be healed. While there is no generic template to apply to these situations, there are some guidelines that can facilitate the recovery process.

1. Acknowledge your actions to your partner before, not after they find out.The sooner the better. The longer you have been living a lie, the deeper the damage, the more difficult the possibility of a full recovery, and the longer the healing process takes. Acknowledging the transgression before your partner affirms it from another source creates a higher level of trust than waiting until you’ve been found out.

An average lady’s
size is now US size 10 which used to be like US size 6
or US size 8 before. A lot of plus size women always
shy out their curves making themselves believe they
don’t look good in one dress or the other. Below are what to consider when buying or shopping for clothes.

1. DO visit the petite or tall sections, depending on your
height. If you’re under 5’3, there’s a great reason to
suspect you should do all of your shopping in the
petite section of stores

2. DO visit specialty stores like Lane Bryant for your
clothing needs and to learn what to look for in terms
of fashion trends.

3. DO dress to accentuate your best features. While
some plus size ladies simply want to disguise their
entire body or hide under a shapeless frock, it’s
important you play up your best features

We don’t mean to lie but we kinda have to, just to keep the peace.

Yes, we females are far from perfect.

I’m really sorry ladies; I guess I feel I owe it to them.

So here are the top 10 lies woman tell men. Once again, I’m really sorry ladies.

1)      I don’t care how much you earn. In my opinion, this is the biggest lie unless the woman knows beforehand he will never earn as much as her anyway, then it’s not really an issue. Woman do care, they want stability and financial fulfilment. If we know that you can’t provide that for us…well…in the words of a kanye ‘Now I ain’t sayin’ she a gold digger…’

2)      I don’t mind that you look at other woman. What? Really? Do you actually believe that? When a woman says this, she’s trying to prove to you that she’s an open minded and a patient person. Inside she’s screaming ‘how dare you look at her! In fact if she does say this lie…RUN! She’s more likely to be one of those jealous-psycho chicks…still think she’s worth it?

 

3)      I can’t wait to meet your mum. She can wait, a very, very long time. She probably would only want to meet her on the wedding day. Most women are scared of meeting the mothers, they know she’s the one who can make or break the relationship…

 

4)      I like your friends. She loves the fact that they strip her of all the time she could spend with you and she especially loves when you and your boys hang out at bars and clubs. She’s obviously lying to you, she’ll only say this to be accommodating at first but there is a limit!

 

5)      I’m in no rush to get married. Lie.Lie.Lie. She’s watching her biological clock, she’s attended too many of her friends weddings, and has already eyed her wedding dress. If it was possible, she would push you down that aisle!


6) I never tell my girlfriends about you. She does, all the time. She tells them how wonderful you are, what you wear/eat/like/dislike basically EVERYTHING! Trust me there isn’t a conversation between the two of you that her girlfriends aren’t aware of.



7) I like you just the way you are. This isn’t a lie per se, but there are probably one or two or three things that she’s planning to change about you. At least she isn’t insulting you, I mean no one is perfect right?



I’m fine. She’s not. If you had to ask, then you should be smart enough to know she isn’t okay with you. Sooner or later, all that pent up anger she’s been holding in, will explode in your face. Woman use this lie as an emotional defense, we expect you to know what the problem is already.If you want to save your relationship, sort out the problem quickly.


9) I love sports! If you’re lucky enough to date a girl who does love sports, then this may not necessarily be a lie. However if she hates watching sports, she’s lying to prove how much you have in common and that she’s different from all your other girlfriends. Speed up a couple of weeks and she’ll be complaining every time that you watch too much sports.


10) I could never lie to you. If we lived in a perfect world, perhaps.


So now you know, your women are from perfect but then neither are you. Most women only lie to you to protect you and to save their own skins in some situations. Good thing about these lies are they are not intended to hurt you just mostly to flatter you.

I am not condoning or condemning women that lie but showing that these lies are part of everyday life and nor am I generalising that every woman lies.

So do you agree or disagree with my top ten lies? What other ‘lies’ did I leave out? Let me know your views in the comments section.

Ask any lady is this is not what they look out for in guys before hacking me out of here
