Please advise me...

Met her via Facebook and we connected well... She has visited me couple of times and I really enjoyed her but the thing is dt she is a single mother........ Not in bad relationship with her baby daddy but due to some issues, they never got married but have a daughter...

She is a good lady and I really like her.... Just scared of the fact that she is a single lady....


What do I do

Fear will always make us to be so afraid of starting anything

If she is the one that will make you happy, then keep the relationship

Even girls who are single can change in the course of the relationship

The most important thing a man wants is to be with a woman that will compliment his life and make him happy

Namaster:
Pregnancy craving is a MYTH used by wicked women to manipulate, ENSLAVE, debase and dehumanise their husbands.

A single mother will go to her shop and stay there until CONTRACTIONS starts.

But the moment a man, especially a HUSBAND, is actively INVOLVED; MADNESS begins.

That's when they'll wake you up at 3 AM because they're "craving" a turd-flavoured ice-cream made with UNICORN milk.

It's MADNESS!

Your interpretation is totally wrong and lack sense of judgement

A pregnant woman who experiences craving must as a matter of fact respond to that craving else she will just be uncomfortable

No woman in her right mind will be craving for strange food combinations but that's just what your body wants

Some men who are activily involved in their pregnancy journey finds it weird funny that they request for such meal combinations and still eat them in their presence, that means it's not wickedness but real

When i was pregnant I craved for goat head(Isi Ewu), stockfish stew, roasted yam and food I will not want to eat normally and as soon as it starts, you must obey especially when you know that you can afford it.

It happens to those that took in carelessly but because of the conditions of their pregnancy, they endure the inconvenience of not affording the desired food

So pls allow women to express themselves during pregnancy even real men understands that

But the moment the child is born, you will never feel such again

Hello nairalanders, pls I need matured mind on this.
I created this account to post this.

My marriage has been stressful and draining.
I have really suffered if not for the help of my elderest brother, we would have died by now.
My husband has been in addiction since we got married 5yrs ago. that has never allowed him to take care of us. In 5yr we married, he has changed More than 5 jobs all wasted effort. We have two twine children. A boy and a girl. 4urs.
His addiction has been the reason I never want to have another child ever since then.

Right now my husband's uncle, a father figured to him has invited him to come home to the village, so they can advise him and my elderest brother has asked me to pack my things and the children, as soon as my husband left for the village, he will relocate us and my husband will not have access to us again.
And he said, if I declined, he will take his hand off my matter. He has been the one taking care of our rent, school fees and upkeep as my husband's money goes to addiction.

My fear now is, my children are so used to their father and I'm afraid if they can cop without their father. Especially my son.
Secondly, I'm so scared that I don't know how I'm going to handle more brokness in my life
My life is so scattered right now.
And lastly, I don't want my brother to take off his hands off me. He's the only person helping me out with my mistake.

There is a big problem in uoir marriage and the solution is there and you already have a messiah in the person of your senior brother, who has given you the best advice on the way forward

But your on exposure and timidity wants you to continue suffering

Assuming your husband left you, won't your son survive

Well for your best interests follow the advice given to you by your brother failing to do so, he will watch you suffer into depression

People like you don't need advice because you will not know the value of the advice

Hello everyone, I have been out of the country for a very long time so my passport is expired.

Last couple of times I have been in Nigeria, I have used the services of middle men in the 8050 building beside the Atlanta consulate building(paid $400 for Visa).
I do not want to use their service anymore due to the fact I gave out my bank account info and a lot of personal info to an entity that is not government agency..

I was able to get into the consulate since Joe Leshi was in charge and the had the Pakistani lady up front.

The current receptionist tries in her own way but they said the consulate does not do NIN, Passport nor Visas, all can be done in the 8050 building that is now charging $20 parking

My sister said Consulate in DC has changed like a miracle, but Atlanta Consulate is an agency of the 8050 building

My last encounter at the OIS building in Holcomb bridge road, the lady said I should go book appointment online for 90 days wait period with no other person in the building being attended to, and there was nothing she can do to expedite my visa application.


My question is can I just buy ticket to Nigeria and go do my NIN and passport in Nigeria with dignity?

This insult we have been experiencing from the Nigerian consulate in Atlanta is too much there is a tent outside full of people/families, and it all looks like refugees trying to get passport or Visa walking between consulate and 8050 building and they still want money orders in this day and age.

Atlanta Consulate needs a renewal operational failure is a culture over there.

This omonile and roadblock toll collector mentality should not persist in our society, the more we find it the harder to get rid of.

Sorry for the site you find yourself

As a Nigeria, you are allowed to come in with your expired passport and when you get to Nigeria, let me know and your issue will be handled in the most professional way

Just remember to mention me when you arrive

SINisSIN:
You go wait tire. She/he is a scammer. Same pity tactics the idiot pulled here last year, some raised 250k fund for her, I personally asked her to drop her address within so so time so my wife can make arrangements to meet her, she refused all day till after about 2 days, she sent one yeye adress.

I'm surprised this scammer resurfaced again.

If she needs any help, let her do a YouTube video showing her face, her left hand issue then meaningful people will take it up from there.

Person wey need better help no dey hide. We have cases like this on Facebook,Tiktok etc.. and people render help because they saw genuine evidence not this drama this one is doing here.

He lost his glory to begging for a living, so shall it be for the person

Very lazy things

Samantha125:
Instead of posting her personal details, she has opened another thread begging all over again and this time she posted her account details because she just wants people to be sending her money without verifying her identity...

I think this is a guy pretending to be a lady in need.

Imagine, am glad the faceless coward has been deflated

DBestDoc:
If you manage to verify that the picture is as bad as she paints it and that she’s not just a career begger, please quote me. I’d assist in throwing in something to better her condition.

The bolded is very important

Am glad I have found a supporter for the go found me, let's wait and see if she is deceiving her self or being real

We must be verifying all these online carrier beggers by the time we handle them as such, they will stop embarrassing themselves

Ikonse:
Ok ma. Thanks for your input. I appreciate. You've spoken well🙏🙏

Thanks dear, God will be there for you in all things

Fellow Nigerians and other Visitors of this forum from within and outside Nigeria, it is my pleasure to be here amongst you. I have followed this noble forum for years, I have seen the banters, I have seen the toxicity and hazardous nature of the forum but in all these, I have always taken everything to be fun and nothing personal.
I already know the outcome and reviews this post will generate, so I am not surprised.

My Mum is on my neck to get married. I've always told her to be patient, and that God will make everything beautiful in His own time. She has four children. I'm the first and aged 31. The second is a male(28) who is already married and almost a father of two. The third is female(24) in her 300level in the university while the last is also female(22) already married with two lovely kids. My mum is now a grandmother, so I don't understand why she's still hellbent on pushing me into marriage against my wish. I like to get married, but we all know the situation of things in the country right now. Even if anyone gives me money to marry now, I would rather put the money into any lucrative business than spending it on marriage. As a matter of fact, I may not get married in life. I can decide to have a child or two outside wedlock and take good care of the children to the Best of my ability. Marriage no be achievement to me.
I've also told her that my major concern is to make money and take good care of her, establish a good business for her and take care of my siblings. That's my priority, not marriage.
I met a girl on Facebook, and we've being dating online for over a year now. We have never met. She is from my place. Same tribe. She is still an undergraduate and apparently a good girl. She pressured me to send her my mum's number & I did. They keep in touch, and my mum wants me to marry her. The girl wants to get married immediately after graduation, as she still has a year left to graduate. From all indications, she's a good girl. But I'm NOT ready yet. I've told my mum that I'm a Man not a woman. Only women fear to get married late due to their limited time for reproduction, men no dey reach menopause. However, I know it is good to marry and birth early. But I never ready. Whenever I speak with my mum on the phone, she must talk about marriage, I'm starting to avoid her calls cos I'm already tired.
As for this same girl, I tested her las year but she failed the test. I asked a friend to chat her up on Facebook and ask them to meet and greet. My friend chatted her for a week and demand that they meet. To my greatest surprise, she agreed to meet with him. While she was busy communicating with my friend via chats, I was stylishly asking her if she was cheating on me, but she denied everything and I kept laughing within me. It was on the day they agreed to meet that I opened up to her. She was shocked. Begged for forgiveness and I forgave her. But till date, I still feel like she messed up.

Make up your mind and get settled down. You have nit convinced your mum with enough reason why you are yet to settle down

Getting a faithful partner now is not easy especially when they are single but once married she may respect the marriage by staying faithful

Having read all you posted here, I will like you to do the following for me to be sure that you are not a scammer

What exactly is wrong with you or your health

Is it that while you were working, you didn't save something or you saved but have finished it, if so, how much did you save

Have you been to the hospital for your ailment, if yes
Post your medical card, your lab result, your picture as you claimed that one hand is not ok

Drop your address here and you can be visited any time for verification of claims

Drop your sister contact number, let's call her and make more verification from her before we can offer any assistance

Even if we decide to contribute 1000 each, we can raise a room rent and something for you to do

But you must do all above

We want to be sure that you are not a scammer but just a lazy person

Tjra:

Aladexxx:
Good day here...
Please I have a serious issue at hand.

I am married.
But I was in a date with a lady before she got married years ago.

Now....I don't know what made me rush go chat this lady after I saw her post recently.
While chatting her I went ahead of mentioning some of our deep past to d extent of sharing pictures.
Unluckily her husband got to see d whole chat,
Now the family is in chaos and d lady had to be confessing all mistakes made to the husband.
Now I am in d big picture of the problem to the extent that the wife family members put a call across to me that. If the home breaks am in trouble

Please what can I do?. Am helpless now

Visit the familys and apologise for everything and promise them that you will stay away from anything that will lead to communicating with her

And you too respect yourself

ChizzyBuna:
I reached out to a cousin of mine in Norway. I begged him for small financial assistance any amount no matter how small.
He read the message and said he will see what he will do.

That was january 15, since then he rarely reply my message and if he reply he ignores my cry for help

I tried writing him again but tears started rolling from my eyes.
I felt so depressed begging my cousin and him just playing me like a child. Ignoring my messages

I need advice, should i call it quit and distance myself from him?

Honestly if you can ignore him and your request, that will be fine

One day he will remember you and do the needful

You may not know what he may be passing through financially

wayray:
I met a girl during a short visit to Ibadan at my uncle's place. We exchanged numbers and we got talking online. She happens to be a fresh graduate serving.

During one of our usual gist, she said since I'm based in Lagos, I should assist her to look for job by sharing her cv which I obliged. We fixed a date to lash ourselves as Omo ogbon that I am. But my stay got cut short due to urgent stuff at my workplace. ( I forgot to add that I was on leave during this visit) So I left but we still continued gisting and had the date rescheduled for Lagos at my place. When the date for the meeting came, this babe demanded for transport fare which I gave without thinking twice. But surprisingly this babe blocked me immediately after receiving the fund. As a sharp guy, I switched to plan B after waiting for a week without success. I used my other line WhatsApp to chat her and claimed to be chatting her from the company from which I dropped her cv. My people immediately, this babe unblocked me and started apologizing. I said no whala, I pretended to follow up with the company so that they can pick her.

Now I have dropped a particular address not too far from my home for her in Lagos as the location of the company? SHOULD I ALLOW HER TO EMBARK ON THE JOURNEY OR I SHOULD FORGIVE HER?

Pls. I need your advice before Monday. I apologize about the long write up typo.

As a mature guy that you will want to be, leave her to feel the guilt of what she did to you

Worst case, let her waste her transport fare through and flow but don't go to see her

Gloriagee:
How about her exposure to STIs? How she wan handle that one?

This is one of the pains a faithful woman goes through from a flirting man

Chinedu00Z:
I know I've made lots of mistakes. I know I fell off very early in life. I know I've achieved a lot and done so many good things for my family. Money is not the problem for me now, but I still feel something missing in me. My siblings and close friends are all graduates, except me.

Sometimes I get shy when I'm around them, and it makes me feel sad. I've been having this thoughts of going back, but I'll be 26 June this year, I don't know if it's too late, or how it might look to everyone.

Your advice please!!!

Seat for Jamb, get admission, go to school, sort things out and get that certificate, it will boost your self esteem

Some people will be stranded now

AfricaDefender:
I am a 27 years old Bayelsan from Kolokuma/Opokuma LGA Ijaw by tribe
Having a 24 years old Bayelsan lady also Ijaw from Southern Ijaw LGA.
We have a 4 years old Daughter and 1 year old son.


I met this lady when I had nothing.
I was homeless but we were together.
She even slept and lived at front of people's shops with me saying she rather die by my side than let me go.
When her father sent her out of his house for my sake because she choose me instead of to take her life serious the way he wants and she pack to my room from their town and my father sent both of us packing because he doesn't like her either.


Along the line I hit jackpot due to some lawful deals that got my way and I became a millionaire.


Sometimes I fear that life is unpredictable and if anything should happen to me my brother's and sisters won't allow her touch my money since my youngest sister is my next of kin.
By then I never had a child so I'm thinking of changing all my account to her name as next of kin so that if anything happens to me since life is unpredictable I know that my children will not suffer.


Note: I didn't do any thing evil to get the money o.
And I didn't marry her lawfully but we just refuse to leave each other till she gave birth to two


What do you think?
I need advice please.

I think the first thing to do, is to look for people who will talk to both familys and you guys will go and start and finish marriage rites for her marriage and do your marriage Registery. It's necessary incase of the future so that your children will be acceptable in the future the family properly

The second thing to do is to purchase a land in your name, no mater how small it will be and build some thing so that you can stop paying rent and have a shelter for your family incase of tomorrow they will not be stranded

Thirdly, open an account for your children and put the money their but you will be the one running the signatories

Make your wife your next of kin where you need to fill next of kin

For the sake of the love you have for each other, let her know the above suggestions if you decides to implement it

Invest your money wisely and make sure your wife has something doing to generate income

Lastly, reunite your self, your wife and your children with your family and your in-laws family, don't over look that, it's very important

funkmrflexx:
I've been married close to 4 years now with a 2 year old boy, but marriage isn't what I envisioned it to be.

Like the said, if marriage was renewable every 5 years, I wouldn't even bother. I feel like I'm losing myself to this thing called marriage, aside from the responsibilities that comes with providing, the mental and psychological stress.

I've never been this stressed in my life and I'm someone who's usually able to handle a lot of stress, I just feel like I need time alone from everything and everyone, no calls, no text. Nothing.

And my wife even makes it worse with threats of leaving the marriage over any small issue. I think the biggest mistake of my life is getting married and I know a lot go men go through this to but they can't talk.

And that's why a lot of men die young these days.

As it is now your mental health is no longer stable, if she wants to leave, let her go but don't chase her away

A little break is all you need to heal your mind

Time will heal every thing

I have not yet paid the technician the 20k as such was to be paid at the point of picking up the TV. I have all the documents for the transaction.
Thanks for your input

Sorry for the inconvenience and double embarrassment he caused for you, start by picking up the technician and use him to pick that idiot with silly name

Deal with him with any means you want so far you will recover your money and he will spend more to set himself free

Nnamdipapa:
I will stop if she gets pregnant again. Her two kids are already being neglected by the husband and she is supposed to be on a permanent IUD until situation improves in her family. I almost cried when I saw where they are living. Some marriages are not worth it at all.

You seems to be the one drinking paracetamol for their headaches

Leave them to do whatever they want, it's their problem and nit really yours
Since they love having children don't stop them to avoid family issues

They love themselves more that the love you have for them

Nnamdipapa:
My daughter will be in the university of Toronto this September. I married at 21.

What next have you got for me.

That's good
So continue helping her she is your sister

Nnamdipapa:
I am already settled. I started planning for myself when I was 14.

Plan more, get married and establish your own family, invest in other things if you really have that spare money

Born20win:
Good evening everybody I am need of mature advice because I am depressed, it happened that I was married fourteen years ago I gave birth to one daughter who is 12 years old. I couldn't conceived again for so many years we had been to hospital and we were fine no medical issue at all. For seven years of having our daughter my husband was faithful he hadn't cheated on me or anything but on the 8th year he started messing around with different women. Although I wasn't aware because I trusted him a lot and I wasn't paying attention until 2021 a random number messaged me on WhatsApp sending me pic of her and my hubby and scan so she was pregnant for my hubby. As shocked I was I couldn't waited for him to returned home I called him immediately crying bitterly asking him if he had impregnated someone else he answered me with so much pride that he tough my reason for calling was something important but I am calling him to ask him atupid questions adding even if is true that he had impregnated 100 women what is my business. He hanged up the phone , I was very hurt by his response I decided to wait until he got home and his response to me was so bad that he told me he wasn't satisfied with the only child I had with him and he wanted more children and he is free to impregnated women one after another. We had a heated argument which led to him beating me in front of our daughter. Which had led us to stopped talking for 6 months while he was doing his things and I was also doing my things focusing on my shop and child. Meanwhile the baby mother had twins girl for him while we weren't talking and 3 months after having the babies he caught her with another man at the house he was renting for her which led to a big fight and he was arrested. He spent 2 weeks in jail while the baby mama refused to bailed him and I was also minding my business I didn't visit him or anything because I was hurt. Then his family went to beg the baby mama to bail her I don't know much details but he was released after they begged her. The day he was bailed out of sudden he apologise to me begging me for forgiveness well I didn't forgive him immediately I was still hurt but I had forgiven him finally. He become the sweetest man I ever met in the beginning and our marriage was working fine and we were stronger again. Then the baby mama was begging him through his family to take care of the kids because he blocked her everywhere and the only way she could have reached him was through his family. His elder brother called him asking him to take care of the children but he refused. He told me everything his brother were asking him to take care of the twins, hmmm it wasn't easy for me to try to convinced him after all the pain I went through because of their mother but after all the children were innocents they didn't have to suffer because of their mother mistake. I told him to take care of them but before he could do so he have to conduct a dna test because if she was able to sleep with another man 3 months after their birth there's a possibility she had multiply partners and the twin may not be his.the dna test were conducted after 3 months and the twins were his and he started sending upkeep money every month then when they clocked 2 years old she met with a guy living in Malaysia and she dropped the twins with my inlaws. My husband begged me to accept them so that he can bring them home, hmmm it wasn't easy but I had accepted. Where the problem now started their mother will come at my house anyhow without announcing and she will say she come to meet her girls. I wasn't happy for her to be coming to my house to see her girls although I can never stopped her from seeing her girls but coming to my house was a no. I told my hubby anytime she want to meet her kids he should dropped them at his elder brother house so they can meet over there but she still coming to my house to meet her girl and when I had enough I told my hubby to return the girls back to her but she refused. Me and him started having issue because of his baby mama if she come to my house she will enter my parlour sitting relaxing and I had enough the was a time I had to dragged her and ask her to leave , she slapped me and I slapped her back and thrown her and her girls out of the house. That evening when my hubby returned we had a heated argument which led to him beating me again for the second time since we got married. I left the house and I went to stay with my sister for 3 good months i found out I was pregnant but I refused to tell him and I kept as a secret to him, he never bothered to call. I never called him too meanwhile I was away he was back with his baby mama. To cut the long story short last year I was blessed with a bouncing baby boy after 11 years of waiting to conceive again , my hubby and I got back together before I put to bed and I just discovered that her baby mama third child who is actually a girl belong to him so the reason why he was keeping quiet when his baby maman use to walked into my house anytime she feels like it was because he impregnated her hoping that she would give birth to a boy but god confused her she gave birth to another girl and I gave birth to my boy. This secret is very hard for me to swallow I really hate my hubby for impregnated her once again knowing fully well she was messing around with other men when she had the wins. My heart is really shattered and going back to her he had put our lives in risk of catching diseases. He is begging me but I am finding it very hard to forgive him I don't know what to do please help?

Hmmm this is quite hurtful
There is little or nothing you can do

Just take care of your self and children and make sure he provides for you, if its not enough, ask for more

Let him feel the heat of providing, but make sure she doesn't gp beyond the palour anytime she comes

And becareful so that she doesn't poison your children

Some men must have sense bye force

Nnamdipapa:
My name is Uchenna, Growing up on the streets of Ajegunle, Lagos, life was anything but easy. I come from a family of eight, and poverty was our closest companion.
My father was a roadside mechanic, my mother sold pepper at the market, and we often went to bed hungry. School fees were a luxury we couldn’t afford, but I was determined to change my story.

I did everything—hawked sachet water under the blazing sun, pushed wheelbarrows, washed cars—just to survive and get an education. It wasn’t easy, but I kept pushing. Today, by the grace of God and sheer hard work, I am a successful businessman in Lagos. I live comfortably, have my own car, and even travel abroad for business. But success comes with its own challenges, especially when you have family depending on you.

One of my biggest responsibilities has been my youngest sister, Abigail. She’s married to a man who, like her, is a teacher in a struggling private school in Ejigbo, Lagos. Their combined income of N80,000 barely covers the basics. Seeing their struggles, I’ve been supporting them consistently—sending monthly allowances, paying their children’s school fees, and stepping in whenever emergencies arose.

At some point, I gave Abigail ₦120,000 to enroll in a tailoring program. I thought this would help her gain a skill, start a business, and reduce the financial pressure on both of us. But she didn’t take it seriously. The money went down the drain, and she never completed the program. No business, no skills, just excuses.

Despite all this, I continued to support her. But then she told me she was pregnant with their second child. That’s when I snapped.

"Abigail," I told her, "if you have another child after this one, I will stop all financial support. I love you, but you and your husband need to take responsibility for your lives."

Now, my family is divided. Some people think I’m right, that I’ve done more than enough, and she needs to step up. Others think I’m being too harsh—that family should be unconditional, no matter the circumstances.

But here I am, wondering:
Was I wrong to set that boundary? Should I have kept quiet and continued supporting her no matter what?
If you were in my shoes, what would you have done?

With all these financial support for them, it makes them comfortable to start planning for another child, so you can't stop them

My question to you is, what are you planning for them, what if you go down, can they combine their resources to raise raise you up.

Its time for you to plan for yourself

OduduwaNow:
A brother asked me to advice him, I took it to Nairaland for you guys to help him.

The mistake was keeping a pregnant woman and the worst was for her to tell you that she still love the man.

Well you have learnt the hard way, move on and get yours

Lonestar124:
As a man, to overcome 80percent of problem with your spouse, have your own separate room, let your wife have her own room.

If you're going out, lock your room, if you come back from work or business, jejely Waka enter your room and lock yourself inside, enjoy your space sometime in your marriage as if you're still a bachelor, ping your room as single man, if you are a game lover buy play station, television, small fridge etc and put in that room..

Be a man that your wife and children will knock and seek his face, stop making yourself available for your wife, but always be accountable and provide for your family when it comes to finance.

To much familiarity dey bring disrespect and altercation!!

For your peace of mind, privatized your space in your home, the tension is too much already on you.

The only sensible statement here is for a man to have separate rooms if he can afford it

But thr dirty advice you are offering about not making himself available to his wife and children and also for his wife and children to always knock before seeing him and he should lock himself in his room, that is total nonsense and the man will ever remain a stranger in his own family

One of the things that makes a man to be complete is to interact with his wife and children irrespective of the responsibility he has

You are not married and as a bachelor you don't have any experience to advice married men

Ahmed0336:
Over two cups of rice?

Poverty no be good thing at all

You can see that she is a minor and snot even supposed to be in a marriage at that age

Both poverty and lack of experience are all the she was lacking

They may have always having issues and she felt it's enough

Her mates are in the school building thier future

The same poverty levels made parents to give her out in marriage

Though their kinds of marriage is, once you carry Belle you are automatically married to the man without even any marriage rights

Asquare84:
I need the opinion of property lawyers here. My late father bought a land in 1992, with hand written sales agreement. however our father died last four years ago and the person that sold the land to us is also late.

Fast forward to last two years someone came and put a pillars around the land and put a big notice board with an inscription 'Land for Sale'

We finally took the case to court, and we noticed that the same land grabber is clamming that they bought the land from the same person that sold the land to our father, although we have witness which are the children of the man that sold the land to our late father and other people that bought the land together with my father.

Now, in court the defence team is claiming that we abandoned the land for more than 15 years, that is why they are laying claim to the land.

Is there any law in Nigerian that said you can claim a land that is inhabited in the bush and it becomes yours ?

Note: the said land is in the bush and no developments is there presently and the land grabber only put pillars on the land.

Secondly, should in case we win the case, can I claim damages for trespassing in to our land and wasting our time and resources on court case.

The land is in our rural town.

Nairaland please I need enlightenment.

I think I will suggest that, if you win the case, no need claiming damages

Just resell the land, because the more you keep the land undeveloped the more another person will sell the land and this time around he will purposely erect a building and use the money to close any case you guys will bring

And even the court will remind you that you left the land undeveloped
