Any woman who can do those for a man on the first day she meets him has no self-worth.

When she falls in love, self worth or standard is the last thing on her mind. No jupiter can make her see things from another perspective

Dpsychologist:
Let’s be real for a moment this isn’t a troll post, it’s a reality check.

Sometimes I ask myself: is marriage as we knew it simply outdated? Not because love is dead, but because the environment that once supported marriage has fundamentally changed.

Before you get angry, read to understand.

1. The Economy Has Redefined Commitment
In West Africa especially, marriage is no longer just emotional, it’s a financial stress test. As a man, if you’re not reasonably stable, marriage doesn’t bring peace; it brings pressure, anxiety, and in many cases, depression. Love doesn’t pay rent or school fees.

2. The Timeline Has Shifted
Decades ago, a 25-year-old man likely had years of work experience, a steady income, and a clear path.
Today? Many are unemployed graduates, interns, or still “finding themselves.” The system changed, but expectations didn’t.

3. Gender Equality Changed the Market (Not a Bad Thing Just Reality)
Women are educated, empowered, and ambitious and that’s progress. But it also means many now want a fully established man, not someone still under construction. Growth partnerships are rare; finished products are in demand.

4. Marriage Is Now High-Cost, High-Risk
Dowries were once symbolic. Today, some families treat marriage negotiations like asset liquidation.
Cost of living is brutal. Feeding yourself is hard enough add a spouse and children, and the math becomes scary.

5. Roles Are No Longer Clear
Back then, roles were defined (right or wrong). Today, roles are negotiated and negotiation requires emotional intelligence most people were never taught. Some outsource domestic roles. Others resent them. Tension follows.

6. Options Have Exploded

Travel was limited. Communities were smaller. Choices were fewer.
Now? Infinite options, endless comparisons, and constant dissatisfaction. Marriage used to signal responsibility. Today, many see it as a trap.

7. Tolerance Levels Have Dropped
People were more patient then sometimes too patient.
Today, tolerance is low. Exit doors are wide open. One mistake and it’s “I deserve better.”

8. Sex Is No Longer a Scarce Resource
Let’s not pretend. Intimacy once came mostly through marriage. That alone pushed commitment. Today, access is easy, so the incentive structure has changed.

So no, marriage isn’t dead.
But the conditions that made it work effortlessly in the past are gone.

Marriage now requires:

A. Strategy
B. Emotional maturity
C. Financial realism
D. Clear alignment and
E. Brutal honesty

If you’re doing it blindly, you’re gambling.

And before anyone asks
No, this isn’t me talking.
It’s my 95-year-old grandma observing the world and shaking her head.

The end.
Its not old fashioned but redefined

The roles ain't the same as it used to be

Una no dey tired with this stale , boring repeated story wey don cast?

Who are the people killing the southern Christians?

And if the excuse is about the northern christians, Muslim have been killed than the christians in north.

Seh una see say una story don cast

Meanwhile, Ipob dey amongst the christians killing christians in South East

Southerners are the major gun runners and also run the logistics to deliver the arms and ammunition, and they are mostly christians. Whatever that might be happening in North, the southern Christians are also part of it
The focus is on Northern christians..continue to pretend like you dont understand

Jobs/Vacancies › Re: New Offer Letter After Working For A Year by femi4: 7:56pm On Dec 17, 2025
WebLab:
Good evening, everyone.

Please, has anyone experienced this before? I joined this company earlier this year and I am spending a year with them already. Immediately I joined, I was given offer letter and other documents to sign which I did sign them immediately and send back to them. Last week, I got a mail from the HR to sign an updated JD which I signed and returned. Again this week, I got another mail from the HR to come to their office to pick offer letter. Offer letter after a year of work!

I am thinking something might be fishing. Please house, has anyone experienced this before because this is my first time of coming across this in about 10 years I have been working.

Your contribution and guidance will be much appreciated.
Check if your job title has change

The variation is usually do to error in the first employment letter or a new job role offer
