Please have you ever been asked "what do you want from me?" by a lady that you just wanted to help with no strings attached?
I was driving home yesterday after work and a lady (average looking) flagged me to stop and i decided to stop and gave her a lift. I asked her where she was going and she mentioned a bustop before mine and i said lucky you... We had a lil chat as i drove her and she seemed really fun, We got to her bustop and i offered to be taking her to work in the morning since she stays close to my place. Then suddenly her face changed and she asked the annoying question "Oga what do you want from me?".. at that point i was dumbfounded and sad at same time. But i had to quickly smile and said "nothing" then i drove off.
For me i find it sad, a lot of people are not used to good people doing good things without wanting anything in return.
How do you feel and react when asked that question?
Please share yours
I think she just asked jokingly but you got offended because she misconstrued your kindness, anyways give her a chance. I stopped for a couple with two kids some years ago but was turned down, I guessed they are just being careful so I consoled myself.

BadBreathBoy: This guy called bad breath have haunted me all the way from primary school down to secondary and even to my university level.
I am still a young 19 years old guy at the peak of youthfulness but this guy is just ruining everything for me. My self-esteem, public speaking skills, social life, confidence, in fact, everything has been smashed with a sledgehammer right in my face. I have turned into an introvert because of this bad sickness but will cover it up with "Money on my mind" shït.
I have tried everything possible guys. Below are kinds of stuff that I have tried and it is not working.
1. Visiting a dentist. 6 months ago, I took all the money I had to go over to the dentist in search of a solution. Had to wait for hours before getting attended to. When the doctor came in, she first started with some words of encouragement.
Telling me I might not have bad breath and all, people might be thinking they have it but don't blah blah blah. (So me that have bad breath I don't know what I am saying right?) After much talk, she recommended flossing and cleaning. That exercise where water passing through a tiny hole at high speeds is used to remove plaque from in between your teeth. I had to shell out a whopping 4k for that plus the extra card of 500. All the money I saved was gone just like that. It didn't work!!! Bad breath still held me down.
2. Brushing twice a day. I did this for 1 week straight up without any improvement relative to the hard work put in. So I became less consistent with this. Toothpaste I have tried includes, Oral B, MyMy, Maclean, Close up, name it. Didn't work.
3. Garlic and ginger. Some persons here on Nairaland recommend that ginger and garlic can be used to drive off bad breath. The prescription was to swallow it whole before going to bed at night then brush in the morning to remove the after-effects. I tried this for one week. Didn't work.
4. Mouthwash: I have wasted more than 4k in buying mouthwash but these things are just 2 hours wonder from the moment of application. I get fresh breath for the time being but after like 3 to 4 hours, the bad breath keeps on coming back. Still didn't work.
5. Hydrogen peroxide: Someone also recommended I use this to chase bad breath. It also works for sometime after which bad breath comes back. I even tried to dilute less than normal for maximum effects but the only thing I got was an irritating burn on my tongue. I am so not using this guy again!
6. Walnut: Some said walnut could be my Savior so I had to buy them in large quantity to chew but it didn't have long-term effects. So I ditched it. I don't have money to waste as I am still a student.
7. Chewing a combination of bitter leaf, scent leaf, and guava leaves: Out of intuition, I decided to try this combination. My common sense inferred that since it was bitter, it should probably have some effects on the bacteria in my mouth. But alas! Bad breath wasn't even impressed one bit. I even had to stuff them in my pocket and chew on them while going to class. This was a big flop. Didn't work at all.
8. Agnes Nwamma Herbal powder: I don't know what to say about this one, because it was even better that I just didn't brush for that day. Very useless in fighting off bad breath.
The funny thing that leaves my jaw-dropping is that my dad doesn't even brush, he uses a chewing stick but still has a very fresh breath than I that used mouthwash, baking powder, toothpaste and still chew the chewing stick to top that.
9. Chewing gum like Clorets, Methos: I have to be frank about these gums, they kind of aggravates the bad breath. They are simply applying salt to injury so I just stopped using them altogether.
Pls Nairalanders, help me out here. There have been lots of people who found a solution to their problem on here, so I doubt mine will be different. Pls, I need something else to try that will not dig a hole in my pocket as I am still trying to stand on my feet. I need a permanent solution not 3 hours wonder.
Lala pls push to the front page so I can get a large set of solutions to fight this off.
I don't want to resume school like this. I am tired, I am weak, disheveled, exhausted, dejected, depressed, anguished, melancholic, in fact, I have tayad like this.
My confidence and esteem have been crushed by bad breath. Shyness, inability to have streamlined chat with people, playing deaf and dumb, using hand signals whilst communicating, smiling like a peacock when my opinion is required, staying away from girls, snubbing people, rejecting positions that have me talk to a crowd has taken over!!
Pls, abeg, mbok, biko, I need a solution. A permanent one at that.
One good thing about this face mask is that those people that we are afraid to tell them that they have mouth odour would have know by themselves. They enjoy the benefits now.
Igbere TV reports that Otedola and wife Nana visited their daughter once during the production of the movie.
Citation tells the story of Moremi Oluwa (Temi), a fun-loving 21-year-old student on campus in Nigeria. Incensed at being ill-treated by a trendy university don, Lucien N’Dyare, she drags him before the University Senate. The ensuing intrigues define Moremi’s word against that of the respected academic in a male-dominated bastion.
The movie also stars Haitian-French actor and model, Jimmy Jean-Louis; Ini Edo; Yomi Fash-Lanso; Ghanaian actor, Adjetey Anang; and Gabriel Afolayan among others.
IamHeWrites: Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Tuesday announced to the State House of Assembly his intention to repeal the Public Office Holder (Payment of Pension Law 2007) which provides for payment of pension and other entitlements to former governors and their deputies, Igbere TV reports.
He made this known during his presentation of the 2021 budget.
The move if granted will see an end to the payment of pension to former governors of the state including Babatunde Fashola and Bola Tinubu.
Quote me, if this bill touches the House of Assembly whether it scale through or not, no second term for Sanwoolu. Naija politicians dont like any progress that will affect them negatively.
mrphysics: I think Citation is a great movie. Much better than Oluture.
It was worth the time.
Naa Oloture is a class of it's own, just like couple of days, every scene was captivating unlike citation, at a point I was fallen asleep. Imagine Citation with a part 2 will you look forward to it like Oloture?. As I said it's an impressive job by our artistes and producers.
Fynestboi: Let us know the movie you are currently watching now, be it a Yoruba movie, an English, Hausa, Igbo, Ghanian, Indian, Korean, Chinese, British, American or even Anime etc or Home video, TV Series (season movies), what episode?
Any kind of movie you are currently watching now just post the name and if possible a little summary.
...let's keep the ball rolling..!
Just finished Citation, not bad at all, a good attempt in exposing what students faced in the hands of Nigerian lecturers.
blizzcelebTv: A soldier was filmed in his uniform exhibiting wild behaviour after allegedly taking synthetic weed, a strong street drug popularly known as ‘Colorado’ or ‘Black Mamba’.
In the video, the helpless officer, who appeared to have lost control of his mind and body after allegedly taking the drug is seen acting strange and making gibberish comments.
A hilarious and unfortunate incident occurred in a church where a groom tried carrying his bride to the altar with the intention of making his wedding ceremony a memorable one but it ended in a funny way as they both ended up on the ground.
If you are right handed just ensure it's your left hand that is holding her tigh or legs while the woman will support you with her hand around your neck. Dont let anxiety make you forget your rehearsal otherwise you will see yourself for ground.
CastedAyo: On-Air Personality Daddy Freeze has nominated rapper Falz as his choice for the 2023 presidency, Igbere TV reports.

Nothing bad if FALZ can get a vibrant Northern Youth to disrupt this crooked political system.

A lady sent us a video telling Nigerians and Gov. Nyesom Wike about the current situation of Oyigbo Rivers State and about the killings by The military he sent to protect them.
Wike is doing everything that will make him qualified for Vice President to a Northern Candidate.
AltMon2: Desmond Elliot has broken down in tears on Live TV, following the backlash he's receiving from Nigerians over social media regulation.

ogohiochola: My friend and his wife got married since 2015 and the Marriage is blessed with 4 Children but there's no True love, he feels nothing for her and she's like a stranger.
What can he do?
4 children in 5 years! That woman carried pregnancies for solid 3 years and only had less than 6 months rest in between. That's what happens when you use a woman like baby factory. Tell your friend to talk things out with his wife and should looking beyond appearances, he made her look that way. He shouldn't bother looking outside but look on how to make his marriage work. Tell them to stop giving birth for now ooo.
Why organising conferences in such a volatile place for Christ sake. Please let's pray for Pastor Zango safety, Holy Spirit please keep him safe and deliver just like when Peter was arrested in jesus name.
