RomanceRe: Boy Lives Abroad, Girl lives in Nigeria. Should he remain faithful? by Flint(m): 6:20pm On Jul 08, 2005
tayotina:
Guys will always be guys, they would cheat no matter what. Both parties are supposed to be committed in a relationship but unfortunately it is not so. The lady puts in all her heart while the guy just doesn't care.

Imagine this:
I don't think anyone should stereotype genders. There are lots of guys who remain faithful, while their "loved one" gives herself to all takers. The only thing I can concede is that there is more pressure on girls from guys than on guys from girls cos guys are naturally more persistent.
RomanceRe: Is everybody in love blind? by Flint(m): 6:09pm On Jul 08, 2005
sade:
True love is never blind.Infact you need a "binocular lense" to really maintain your love life if its real.Love is never blind but lust and infactuation might be blind.
Sade, I think you are missing the point when love is said to be blind. I believe it means you are blind to the person's faults and shortcomings. In fact it is lust that cannot be said to blind cos you are after just one thing, and after you get it, the person becomes unattractive (well usually grin)
Music/RadioRe: Omotola Jalade as a Musician? by Flint(m): 4:06pm On Jul 07, 2005
jogego:
Who said there is no mediocrity in Nigerian music? How many nigerian musicians really have a good voice? Lets be real and factual. Why apart from poor management does Nigerian music not sell outside Nigeria? Listen to the average song from Congo is it makosi or what do they call the music. It has rhytmn, its enjoyable. Our so called artistes suffer from lack of creativity. That for me is the major problem. Lets call a spade a spade and stop saying in the name of patriotism.....
Well Jogego,
Much as I appreciate that there still some annoying musicians, you cannot maintain that there has not been a drastic improvement in the nusic industry in Nigeria. Lots of people who ordinarily may not have gone into music have done so.

If Tuface were in the states, his concerts would be sold out before you say"face" There is an explosion going on now I tell you, and I don't think the movie industry in Nigeria can improve as much as the usic industry has in the next 10 years!!!

on a final note, methinks our music curently is uch better than the makosa you mentioned.
PhonesRe: SMS Spam on Vmobile Nigeria (& other networks) by Flint(m): 4:22pm On Jul 06, 2005
Well Trish u said the message was that "he stands a chance", so technically even if it was really sent by ECONET, still didn't mean he was guaranteed the 750 Naira. also there are hackers who spend hours trying to brek into websites just for the fun of it. It may just be some mischeivious pple at work.

OK now that u define ur millionaire, I'ld say the number thins out but even in UKPounds, ther are a number. I guess tho there is nothing like the flex. working hours you get from owning ur business.
Christianity EtcRe: For Catholic Faithfuls by Flint(m): 5:30pm On Jul 05, 2005
For me, I think one of the things that have kept me in the catholic church is the selflessness of the religious. Not only have they remained celibate for christ, they have also dedicated themselves to go and evangelize anywhere there is a need.
The words of St Teresa of Avila always makes me emotional. On travelling through dangerous terrain for evangelism, her cart broke down, and she said to God jokingly "Lord, if you treat your friends like this, its no wonder you have so few" grin
RomanceRe: After He/She Has Been Unfaithful by Flint(m): 5:06pm On Jul 05, 2005
Yeah as u said, its sorta a catch-22 situation. Even if it can be forgiven, there will always be that doubt. out on a business trip, u begin to wonder what (s)he is doing now....... sad
Music/RadioRe: Omotola Jalade as a Musician? by Flint(m): 4:47pm On Jul 05, 2005
Its a free world. Thank God there are now lots of really good and talented artistes who have upped the ante in the music industry in Nigeria. With the likes of TuFace, StylPlus, Kush etc. there wouldn't be room for mediocrity, and I never thot I'ld say this but for once I am proud of Nigerian Artistes!!!

So as regards your concern, she'ld progress if she's talented else she'll fade into thin air.
RomanceRe: True Love: What is it? by Flint(m): 6:31pm On Jul 01, 2005
True love is what remains after all traces of the physical attraction has dissipated.
RomanceRe: To Know if your Boyfriend/Girlfriend is in Love with You by Flint(m): 6:21pm On Jul 01, 2005
IAH:
If you really want to know whether he/she is in love or not, jilt him/her and see if he/she will come begging.




WARNING: IAH's advice is dangerous to health.
IAH, that may be a bit too risky.Not everyone truly in love may come begging, and the hurt may be irreparable. In my opinion though, you'ld know if ur b/gfriend is in love with u from lots of things, For us guys, one of such things is making up even when u know she's at fault (quite common grin)

TravelRe: Working Girls (Women) Avoiding Clubs and Parties? by Flint(op): 9:39am On Jun 27, 2005
Angelgal:
Flint would you honestly and seriously get involved in a relationship with a babe you met in the night club? Wouldn't you be wondering what she was doing there in the first place?

Unfortunately the night club has the appearance or indeed is a cess pool for guys looking for loose women. Even when a decent lady makes the choice of giving herself a good time, she is counted among the droves of loose gals hanging around the night club, worse still if she shows up alone.
Angelgal, with regards to your qn, yeah I can get into a relationship with a girl I meet in a party. The hilton incident was unfortunate though. I agree with Viera, there has to be changes in mindsets. Who says its only guys that are entitled to timeouts and partying? i know girls who work their butts off every week, some in the grueling oil service industries, and yet are they not "permitted" by soceity to party on friday nite without male company? . To get back to my 1st point, I admire adventurous pple, who are interesting company and not afraid to be themselves and laugh out loud. No one should be denied this.
Nairaland GeneralRe: Women with both Beauty and Brains by Flint(m): 8:28am On Jun 24, 2005
I think we have to define what exactly we may term brains here. R we talking being streetsmart or Einsteinshuh
TV/MoviesRe: Best Movie of 2005? by Flint(m): 6:37pm On Jun 23, 2005
The Godfather, a timeless favourite. I watch it every year (more like every month!!)Makes all other movies seem like childsplay.
TravelWorking Girls (Women) Avoiding Clubs and Parties? by Flint(op): 6:16pm On Jun 23, 2005
INDOOR WORKING CLASS GIRLS

I have noticed that most working class girls in Port Harcourt hardly hang out at night (clubbing, partyin etc). When I hang out with my guys, it's mostly Uni girls we meet. Its only at events like get-togethers organised by someone from a particular firm that you could come across droves of girls from that firm.

My theory is that working class girls have the impression that they may be taken as loose if they hangout at clubs and all. Any other explanations. huh

Justdman, there are lots of millionaires who work for people IN NIGERIA.
RomanceRe: How I make her understand and appreciate me? by Flint(m): 6:05pm On Jun 23, 2005
angel2k:
hi alladin ,I think you are misunderstanding some ladies here, because I think some ladies just want 2 maintain a distance relationship because of d fear dt when they come close d guy will take d opportunity 2 ask them out,which some don't want .
Then why doesn't she SAY SO instead of keepin him in his misery. Beware, u may not know what u have til u lose it
TV/MoviesRe: The Notebook (a movie) by Flint(m): 5:57pm On Jun 23, 2005
Hot-angel if u r crazy about the film, maybe u should read the book. I got a used copy of the book in Lagos Island years bac cos it was claimed to be "probably the greatest love story of all time" and when I read it, I was really tripped with the story line. Got a copy of the film immediately I saw one, and I wasn't disappointed!!!
RomanceRe: Why are Women Not Crazy About Tall Men? by Flint(m): 2:04pm On Jun 23, 2005
blackweaver:
Personally I don't blame ladies (to a degree) I myself prefer ladies that are shorter than myself (would be embarasssing if in an argument the girl conveniently gives me a knock on the head - actually it's more than that) but a man is supposed to be the head of the family and it's easier to defer to someone who is taller than you. The only issue I have is those not tall women who prefer very tall guys - though they could also argue that they don't want their children to be so tall
Blackweaver na true you talk oh. It would not be funny at all if i "play play" anargument in say sweet sensation, the girl "konk" your head with a "don't b silly darling" rejoinder. When I read ur post, I had to hold myself from laffing hysterically in the office!!!
CrimeRe: Internet 419 by Flint(m): 1:48pm On Jun 23, 2005
I think its dumb really. Both the 419ers and the "gba"d (duped). Have you seen a typical mail they write. It's fraught with grammatical errors, so how can you believe the socalled international transactions of someone who can't even compose a single corect sentence?

This is not to deny likes of Ajudua who are suave. yeah I can understand if you fall for someone like him.
RomanceRe: Every 'First Love' Is Infatuation by Flint(m): 6:34pm On Jun 22, 2005
I believe love can come without infatuation. I mean...infatuation is deep, very deeep. Your heart misses a beat when u see her, you are all uptight, probly your palms get sweaty...
If a couple are infatuated with one another and eventually get married, lucky for them. However u can always love someone deeply without infatuation.
Nairaland GeneralRe: Women with both Beauty and Brains by Flint(m): 6:06pm On Jun 22, 2005
All what I have been saying in my previous post is wrt offline interactions. In fact there's a sschool of thot that youngsters cant compose good letters cos they're used to sending mails. (Some sef no sabi wetin be post office grin) Same with confidence building. U have to meet the person in flesh to build confidence.
Nairaland GeneralRe: Women with both Beauty and Brains by Flint(m): 5:57pm On Jun 22, 2005
The idea is to avoid desperation. For guys and gurls, methinks its best to get to know lotsa people (beautiful, ugly, darkskinned, lightskinned, brainy confused ... u get d pic grin), genuinely interact with and learn from them, and with time you can choose who u r most comfortable with for a relationship.
The results? You'ld have gained more confidence in dealing with people, and who knows, the one u truly desire just may have observed and come to admire your sincerity.
