77. He lived a complete life. At least he’ll get a lot of exercise, male friends and free food for the rest of his life. 26 years multiplied by 2 bodies means he’ll die in prison. He’s the type of tourist you see “carrying a strap” while walking on the street. I saw a Russian do the same in Benin City. Shows you can spend money to visit a third world nation while viewing the indigenous population as filth.

Yellow eyes. That man suffered leukemia or sickle cell anaemia. He tried. He achieved a position in life before leaving. That is more than I can say for 99.99% of trolls wasting their lives on Nairaland.

Na so life be.

I never knew the engagement soured. Back to the dating pool she goes. There are many potentials. She can always settle for single motherhood if things come to worst. She has the wealth. Her father could support her if she didn’t possess the financial means to begin with.

One boy is using his alternates to try and force a debate out of this topic. Some lowlifes in this forum, you will never amount to anything past internet trolling. I sorry for una.

She doesn’t look like a beauty queen anymore. I fit pass this one for road no notice anything out of the norm for her body. It reminds me of Munachi Abii who looks like a fat, frustrated housewife today. As a former beauty queen, it should always reflect in your appearance. You are an ambassador of a title/pageant. Let the world know.

Leave that man alone. He wasn’t the cause of his wife’s frustration. No matter how comfy one makes another, the person may still end things. The problem was her not him. In a case of domestic violence, the onus was on her to leave. If she did so using suicide, the fault still laid on her.

Workplace accident. Nothing new.

I hate how factory and construction workers always justify their high-risk working environments by saying “a banker on his chair can spin out of control, bump his head and die.” Yes, that is a one in a billion possibility. You face life-ending scenarios at least four times daily for years on end. I would pick a cushy job if it didn’t involve so much sitting.
Christianity Etc › Re: Transgender People Can Be Baptized Catholic, Serve As Godparents, Vatican Says by finallybusy: 6:57am On Nov 10, 2023
The Vatican supports LGBT. It doesn’t mention them in detail. It gives considerations for their existence. A true reflection of Christ who preached to love one’s neighbour as one’s self. It’s sad they never saw nor do they still view blacks as full human beings.
Crime › Re: House Boy Cuts Off Aged Master’s Manhood For Money Ritual In Anambra by finallybusy: 6:45am On Nov 10, 2023
That boy is in his village. The authorities should fetch him there. Why didn’t he use his own manhood for the ritual? Oh, he wanted it intact to Bleep oloshos who’d come to spend his money. I see.
Celebrities › Re: Ilebaye's Outfit To Davido's Party Causes A Stir by finallybusy: 6:41am On Nov 10, 2023
Stir, bawo? That girl is Gen Z. Their ways are different. Change is inevitable whether good or bad. My generation is one foot in the grave, many of my peers are the parents of Gen Zs. Millennials have children in university. My little brothers and sisters are literally the parents of the jambite children on Nairaland who type insults as mentions to my comments. I fit swear many of my nephews and nieces are older than the moderators frustrating my life.

See the way I went off. Ehen, she is of a new generation. The only people who can criticize her are those of her generation, of which many will support the attire. If she’s not of your generation, look elsewhere; your opinion is invalid.
Education › Re: Some Facts You Weren't Taught In School by finallybusy:
The wedding ring thing happened with shaving and sagging.

Shaving became a norm after WWII when gas masks required men to clear off facial hair for a tight fit. Soldiers came home and continued out of habit. Other men joined the lifestyle.

Sagging occurred in prison because belts were not allowed for inmate safety. Men came back home and continued the habit. Others followed.

An extra occurrence.

Men in American prisons exercise frequently to physically cope with the mental stress of being incarcerated. On hitting the streets during release, women gawked at their muscular physiques. A lot of them continued out of habit. Other men who’ve never gotten arrested followed in the routine. Military men and women also inspire others around to create exercise schedules, thus improving their lives.

Madness or drug use. All the confessions come from torture. People impose the witch tag on the individual, forcing him/her to admit it out of fear.

The point of her blog was singledom in Nigeria. She got a boyfriend and moved on. I just checked her Instagram account. She’s dating a white man. No point penning single stories again. She’s past that life.

She no even fine, sef.

Something is honestly broken in Nigerian women. When you see them doing this, it’s very obvious they have nothing to offer and men are better off avoiding them.

MValerieVaneesa:
Navigating the complexities of modern dating can be both thrilling and confusing. When you’re seeing someone new, it’s natural to wonder about their intentions and expectations, especially when physical intimacy isn’t progressing as quickly as you might have anticipated. If you’ve been asking yourself, “Why isn’t he trying to sleep with me?” you’re not alone.

This article aims to shed light on the various factors that might explain this situation, while also emphasizing the importance of communication and consent in any budding relationship.

Respect and Emotional Connection
When someone you’re dating isn’t rushing into physical intimacy, it often means they deeply care about you and want to build a strong emotional connection first. It’s like they’re putting the brakes on to ensure they truly understand you and what you both want from the relationship. They respect your feelings and boundaries and don’t want to pressure you into anything.

Think of it like a sturdy foundation for a house. Without a strong foundation, the house can’t stand tall. Similarly, in a relationship, a strong emotional connection sets the stage for a healthy, lasting bond.

So, when your partner takes things slow, it’s a sign of their commitment to building something meaningful and long-lasting with you. It’s all about creating a love that’s built to last.

Previous Experiences and Baggage
Sometimes, when the person you’re dating isn’t eager to get physically close, it could be because they’ve been hurt in the past. Imagine if they had a bad experience before, like a past relationship that didn’t end well. It’s like they have emotional scars from those past hurts, and they’re being cautious not to get hurt again.

Picture it as if they’re carrying heavy bags filled with old emotions and worries. These bags can slow them down in the new relationship. They might need more time to unpack and let go of those heavy bags before they feel comfortable moving forward physically.

So, when your partner isn’t rushing into intimacy, it’s often because they’re taking time to heal from past hurts and ensure they don’t bring that baggage into your new relationship. It’s about being patient and understanding as they work through their old stuff.

Cultural and Religious Beliefs
Sometimes, when the person you’re dating isn’t in a hurry to get intimate, it could be because of their culture or religion. Just like people have different traditions, some believe that physical intimacy should wait until later, like until marriage.

Imagine it like following a set of rules that come from their background. It’s like having a different roadmap for their romantic journey. They may want to make sure that both of you are on the same page about these rules before taking things to the next level.

So, when your partner is taking it slow, it’s often because they’re respecting their cultural or religious values. It’s important to have open and respectful conversations about these beliefs to make sure you’re both comfortable with the pace of the relationship, and it can lead to a deeper understanding and stronger bond between you both.

Personal Comfort and Confidence
When the person you’re dating isn’t rushing into physical intimacy, it might be because they don’t feel entirely at ease yet. Think of it like being in a new place where you’re not entirely sure where everything is or how things work. They might need more time to become comfortable with you and the relationship.

Picture it as if they’re like a little turtle in their shell. They’re shy or lack confidence, and they want to make sure they don’t come out of their shell too quickly. They’re waiting until they feel safe and secure.

So, when your partner takes it slow, it’s often because they want to build their confidence and be sure that the relationship is a safe and welcoming space. Being patient and understanding can help them come out of their shell when they’re ready and feel more comfortable moving forward.

Emotional Scars and Trust Issues
If the person you’re dating isn’t eager to get physically close, it could be because they’ve been hurt before. Imagine it as if they have scars on their heart from past bad experiences, like a broken heart. These scars can make them worry about getting hurt again.

Think of it like they’re trying to protect themselves, like someone wearing armor. They’re being cautious because they don’t want to get hurt once more. They may need more time to trust you and believe that this relationship is different.

So, when your partner takes it slow, it’s often because they’re trying to heal those emotional scars and build trust in your relationship. Being patient, and understanding, and showing them that you’re trustworthy can help them feel safe and eventually open up more emotionally and physically. It’s about helping them mend their heart.

Different Relationship Goals
When the person you’re dating isn’t in a hurry to get physically close, it might be because they have different plans for the relationship. Imagine it like you’re both on a road trip, but you have different destinations in mind.

They might be looking for something more serious and long-term, like settling down and building a life together. On the other hand, you might have different goals, like keeping things casual and fun.

So, they’re taking things slow to make sure you’re both on the same page. It’s like they’re checking the GPS to ensure you’re headed in the same direction before speeding things up. When you’re both clear about your relationship goals, it can lead to a more harmonious and satisfying journey together, whether it’s a short adventure or a long-term expedition.

Fear of Rejection
When someone you’re dating isn’t pushing for physical intimacy, it could be because they’re afraid of being turned down or not measuring up to your expectations. Think of it like stage fright, where they worry about giving a disappointing performance.

Imagine if they want to make sure everything is perfect, like rehearsing before a big show. They’re taking their time because they don’t want to risk rejection, and they want to feel confident that you’re interested and comfortable with them.

So, when your partner is a bit hesitant, it’s often because they’re nervous about being rejected. It’s important to reassure them, show your interest, and create a safe space where they feel confident about taking the next steps in the relationship. This can help ease their fear and lead to a more enjoyable connection.

Open Communication
In any relationship, talking openly and honestly is like having a roadmap for both partners. When your partner isn’t rushing into physical intimacy, it’s crucial to have conversations. Think of it like discussing the places you want to visit on your journey.

Your partner might have their own thoughts, concerns, or boundaries, and sharing these feelings helps ensure you’re both on the same page. It’s like checking that you’re heading in the same direction.

When you talk openly, it builds trust and understanding. It’s about having those “where are we going?” chats and making sure you’re both comfortable with the pace of the relationship. This kind of communication can strengthen your bond and help you navigate the relationship journey together.

Mutual Consent
In a relationship, mutual consent is like a green light at an intersection. It means both you and your partner are on the same page and agree to move forward. When your partner isn’t rushing into physical intimacy, it’s because they want to ensure you’re both ready and willing.

Think of it like two friends deciding which movie to watch together. It’s important that you both agree on the choice; otherwise, it might not be as enjoyable.

In the same way, physical intimacy should only happen when both of you are comfortable and eager. It’s about making sure that both people in the relationship are saying “yes” and feeling good about it. Mutual consent is crucial for a healthy and respectful relationship.

Taking the Relationship at Your Own Pace
Imagine dating as a scenic hike. Your partner might not want to sprint up the trail; instead, they prefer a leisurely stroll. That’s because everyone has their own rhythm and comfort level.

Your partner might want to enjoy each step and savor the moments before rushing into the next. This can be because they want to build a strong connection or simply because they enjoy the journey as much as the destination.

So, taking the relationship at your own pace means respecting the unique tempo of your bond. It’s about valuing every moment together and not feeling pressured to reach the finish line too quickly. This approach can lead to a more fulfilling and enjoyable journey.

Physical Intimacy Doesn’t Define a Relationship’s Success
Imagine a delicious cake — physical intimacy is just one slice. While it’s enjoyable, a satisfying relationship is the whole cake, made up of many layers.

Just like a cake needs a sturdy base and tasty filling, a relationship requires trust, communication, shared experiences, and emotional connection. Physical intimacy is just one of these layers.

A successful relationship isn’t solely determined by how soon or how often you have physical intimacy; it’s about all the other layers coming together to create something sweet and meaningful. So, don’t rush, focus on building a strong foundation, and savor all the different aspects that make your relationship special.

Seeking Professional Guidance
If you find that your partner’s reluctance to engage in physical intimacy is causing significant stress or strain on the relationship, it might be beneficial to seek the help of a relationship counselor or therapist. They can provide guidance and strategies to navigate this challenge while maintaining the health of your relationship.

Conclusion
In the world of modern dating, it’s easy to get caught up in expectations and assumptions. If you’re wondering why your partner isn’t trying to sleep with you, consider the various factors discussed in this article, such as respect, emotional connection, cultural influences, and personal comfort.

Remember that every relationship is unique, and it’s important to prioritize open communication, consent, and mutual understanding to ensure a healthy and satisfying connection.

Ultimately, a strong and enduring relationship is built on more than just physical intimacy — it’s about building a deep emotional connection and supporting each other’s growth and happiness.
Unbelievable.
