REALITY101: It's just stupiddd how all black folks are getting all hyper because of Obama. I can bet my head they wouldn't act this idiotic if they election was between 2 white folks. OBama killed the economy and have got nothing more to offer. Triple the debt in a blink. Did u partake in the stimulus package? If yes, then you are onye iru abuo! 1 Like |

wisdom77: Thank you for this piece, I know i am in such predicament right now infact i have fixed a date for my wedding already but I am just thinking if i have made the right decision to marry my Virgin GF of 4yrs or a woman that i met 8 months ago dat has a child and we are so passionate when making love. She is doing well financially but she lies and has some funny attitude that my GF doesnt possess but i enjoy her company and she makes me laugh this is just because i dont live in the same city with my GF so we have spent alot of time together. She is begging me to marry her i feel for her but i have my doubts. who thinks I am crazy? Na wa! You are really the principalities your GF should be praying about!! You have serious issues with making decision and you comfortably crown it all with cheating. I hope that GF is smart enough to see who you really are and dump you for good!! 1 Like |

bittyend: The first sex is the "tie-breaker," that should be your aim. So what are u insinuating? Rap.e her? |
Romance / Re: When She Just Wants To Be Friends by Gracious10: 3:19pm On Nov 02, 2012 |
shadrach77: my two cents - when a lady says "let's just be friends" it's one of three things; (a) she is not interested and doesn't want to hurt you by saying 'no' so she is trying to let you off by being diplomatic (b) she needs you around her to act as a shield to ward off other guys (c)she needs you around her to act as a bait in attracting another suitor which she is eyeing - now in the last two scenarios, she is indirectly using you. Whenever i find myself in such situation, i'll just ignore her "friendship" and seek greener pasture elsewhere LOL @ C. Must be an assistant Boyfriend. 1 Like |

africanrapper: Having a similar challenge too. Bc men hardly understand differences between friendship gestures and that of a relationship. A lady can just be friends with you and yet don't want to date you but that una yeye hormones will always translate female relations as wanting to date you especially if you are helplessly attracted to her. I have so many male friends and I don't think any of them hasn't asked me out. They aren't bad people but friendship should be what it is. Love ruins things. |

Looks like 90% of men rather "boys" on this thread defends cheating. It is and can only be BOYS who can boldly defend the act of cheating. Like someone mentioned, only immature men, em sorry BOYS cheat. Well, no matter what u do, keep the DISEASES to yourselves. That's what's most important. Your kissing diseases, STDs, Aids, Herpes. There actually diseases condoms cannot protect. |

Mich-rach: Please in the name of everything and anything you believe in, DON'T go into "marriage" with an AS person if you are AS. Even with the advanced technology, how many fetuses would u end up aborting for your own selfish reasons or even end up bringing a child into this world to suffer? What if u don't ever conceive an AA or AS? So you and ur partner will end up aborting all them(SS) babies without a child to call ur own? Ah, its just too much. Let the person go atleast that will get rid of this painful disease. The idea of "married"couples going into marriage with the idea of aborting fetuses just to please their own desires is just wrong. The sacrificial lamb is that innocent child. What's love compared to life? A beg no do am. My heart is already broken reading though peoples experiences here, if only their parents had proper information and awareness. It could have been anyone of us, our parents didn't check these things neither did they know even my own parents don't even know their genotypes. A word is enough although I wrote an epistle ...LOL 1 Like |

crisycent: My sister and her husband are both AS. After the birth of their first child, it took 5 years before they had the second. This is not because she couldn't get pregnant but because whenever she's pregnant, they test the genotype of the baby in her womb and if it is SS, they abort. But thank God that they finally had to healthy AA male twin babies. Ah! But the thought of continuous abortion of innocent kids sends shivers down my spine. Why even marry that person when u keep disrupting the life of innocent child? (Nwa bira uwa!!) Why should the child sacrifice for the selfishness of the parents? That's barbaric!! 2 Likes |

ikare: my fiancee is SS n we met about a year ago.she dicovered she was ss at age 5 n for a very long time battled with it.she is 28 now n stronger than ever.she gradually learnt how to deal with,primarily by knowing wat d symptons are,wen they come n wat happens wen they are comin. first thn we cleared was d ss issue. she actually tried to make me realize how bad d situation could be, 4 me. but d more we got on,d more i realized dat she is d one 4 me.she is doin great healthwise,in fact on several occassions,i actually was able to predict dat her crisis was near.she's had just 2 so far n they were mild.she takes her medication regularly n by God's grace,d worst is behind us. but the thn i admire most about her is dat she is a fighter n a survivor. she knows wat she has n knows equally how to deal with it. she's bn doin it alone for long,now she has me.so to answer ur question, YES. God bless your heart for still loving that lady despite the odds. Dalu. |

queen binte o: I am above 30 n my genotype is SC. Being alive today is just God if I remba to sleepless nite of pain. I wish I cud stop these pain killers, cos now I av ulcer cos of them. Whre can I get drug-cellod-s? I kno ow to get discovite. LOL, they will find you dear. It's just painful that people get to suffer from a disease that's of no cause of theirs. The pain is just what I have nothing on earth to quantify it. Unless u have seen someone in sickle cell crisis, you would never appreciate the kind of life they live. I call them warriors.

Abali1: If na beautiful mind, I get am well. I once dated a guy living with this disease, it was even a blind date (a friend hooked us up) so I didn't even know what he looked like and he never gave any authentic details of himself. My mind was wide open till I got to the meet up place and saw one guy limping with a cane walking towards me. I recognised the face, yes I was shocked but being myself, I gave him a warm hug. He never disclosed this to me.So questions followed and he opened up. I loved him anyways, fought off friends who tried to ridicule him but I found out that he was a bitter person about this disease.( Guy was a very cute, intelligent man) am sure he thought I was gonna leave him like the others did. I stayed. He had 3 crisis in just one winter!!.(I don't pray even my enemies to have this disease) wish I could take his pain away. I cried more than him. His hip bone was just grating away, so much pain,Stayed with him till he got better. By Gods grace he survived that one. When he proposed, I didn't know if I wanted to deal with these crisis repeatedly even though I am AA, the fate of my children having to deal with As issues on who to marry hunted me. And his bitter part, I just didn't know how to deal with it. It's also important that people with SCD get psychotherapy. Cos this kind of thing fit turn person mind like crazy. 1 Like 1 Share |

ACM10: I know why I asked. I found myself at that point and yes, I didn't really know if I could carry on with the risk of dealing with this issue. So maybe someone who is SS can tell us if the tables were turned, would they marry someone in such situation having being through the hurdles and even continuous hurdles of this disease? 1 Like |

debojyde: Not everyone is that lucky. My class mate had 7 siblings and all 6 of them were SS and died 2 years apart. She is the only AS. The eldest Brother was the last to die, he was 46 when he died the most painful death I have ever seen. You can imagine the mothers pain. Don't gamble with ur life! |

esere826: Actually, Icorinthians 1:27-28 I didn't think I was worthy to ever come close to God nor even receive that gift cos I haven't opened my bible nor prayed in 3yrs . There I understood, it wasn't my righteous that brought me before him but His own timing. I didn't have to be all holy to feel his touch. And I no be pastor o, am just 24 months into this.
