Best of luck you speak in parables sir, please shed some light on your statements. |

healthserve: Valid points. But what about the bigger picture and the obvious mistake thats glaring for " us " ( being others ) to see in your assertions Madam?. There's massive flawed logic with your considerations thats blinded to you because of your by-stance approach of handling issues. I don't understand, please explain further |

dennel: Hi Op! I just think you’ve read n listened a way too much to those relationship talks n all...
Always know dt there’s always a diff btwn theory and reality... ask people who attends motivational speeches (Ts way of the same attributes with relationships and marriage talks) it’s sounds too good but not always real because what works for Mr A may not work for Mr B.
I saw whr you wrote you maybe single @35, adopt n all... well if dts what you wished for yourself, you can have it!
A lot of women will deprive themselves of the joy of marriage bcus of pride, over pompous, ego, and all we do hide under self esteem and respect plus your so called specifications and attributes!
You all forgetting that the country is hard; so if you re lucky to have a silver spoon background why not assist a man you love up instead of giving them names!
My piece: pray n trust God, rebuild your h@ n mind to loving again (delete those blivs and what you read), fall in love, and men 10yrs older won’t make you feel so loved, so you may not really know what’s good for you...
All da best i do not want to make that mistake of helping a man grow up, most men that have that kind of assistance from women resent it on a primal level. Men love women to see them as leaders, not in their weak and broken state. It is why their taste will change when they suddenly make it. I don't want to be coddling a man. I have seen the previous generation make that mistake too many times and ended back to square one, once a man throws them out of the house and marries another. Besides, i did that in my former relationship and experienced for myself that it always ends badly for the woman because she will be pained that she invested so much. I am not saying i won't assist. But he has to make it on his own without financial help from a mere lover. |

pryme: These are the kind of women am worried about, Those that think they are perfect.
In other words you will be doing the man a favor by being in his life. That's a red flag with bright colors. Wow, sir, i applaud your abilities of selective reading and misinterpreatation. I try to list a few things in a bid to be humble and you call me proud? Well a man will be blessed to have me because he who has found a wife has found a good thing. I never said i will be blessed to have the kind of man i am looking but, but i consider myself fortunate when i do. There is no arrogance in that statement sir. What were you expecting me to write, that i can cook and clean, give all the sex styles in kamasutra, be at a man's beck and call and be his to command. I am not trying to satisfy everybody. But then everyone is entitles to their opinion |

daviddelly: after getting married to an ambitious man ,later he will more obsessed about his ambition without giving u love or being there for d kids when u need him ,u will also be d one to open a new account to complain.most guys are poor today because of how the society (Nigeria)is,everyman or guy has an ambition.just hope for a man who will always be dia for u money is not everything true love is. i don't believe everyman has an ambition. Most guys around, behave in a manner that contradicts this. I grew up under an ambitious father, and yes, there is some truth to what you say. I have made peace with some aspects of that. Do you think these men that are ambitious won't realize that mistake later. That's why i want to be slightly different, no matter how ambitious one is, you will always need a place to rest, and my plan in marriage is the provide that haven to the best of my ability for him and the family we will build together. If we do not love and respect each other before that bucket list i wrote in my opening post does not count. Respect and love is what i go for first, character second, then the qualities i have listed third. I just didn't want tonmake the 1st post unnecessarily long |

Romance › Re: Joro Olumofin: Letter To Runs Girls Forming Motivational Speakers On SocialMedia by Harlequeen: 11:19pm On Dec 02, 2019 |
jotey: Do your Runs Girl work in peace. Please stop this Motivator / Motivational speaker act to these young girls who idolize and follow you. You’re recruiting runs girls like you directly and indirectly. .
These assertions : “ I worked So hard, God did it for me, Look at God, anybody can make it, I’m just starting, small girl big God” are very misleading and inappropriate. .
Don’t you think the men you’re sleeping with tell their inner circle friends and family who tell their own friends and family. Therefore your public success has an expiry date because a 5% know the truth. That 5% is growing gradually. .
I worked so hard ? – which work, product, project , proposal did you work on or sell ? Your Instagram page is full of flamboyant pictures of yourself and not a single promotion of a product or event you’re hosting. I guess you’re the product and your DM is the market hub. God saw me through- saw you through sleeping with numerous older men for money ? Mathematics: your salary doesn’t match your lifestyle. Something is missing. .
A self made woman is a woman who uses her brains, degree, personality, vocational skills to make money. Not through sex. .
IF YOU SLEPT WITH A MARRIED MEN, OLDER MAN, DID AN OLDER WOMEN “LESBIANISM”. .
Please Enjoy your money and stop this Motivational speaker nonsense. It’s like a Yahoo boy writing daily success memoirs on social media. .
It’s Psychological, you have to mention “Hardwork” and “God” so that you can reinforce it in your own Cognition that you’re not what you hate the most. A cheat, a runs Girl.
Enjoy your money, buy your creams, nails, hair to promote your ministry but please leave social media motivation out of it. You don’t have the right to motivate the youths.

Ladylite: Aunti Aunty
Calm down, go and enjoy your life.
You may not believe in religion now but I bet you when you are 35 you will know life is spiritual.
All this you explained here are normal for teenagers and under 25 girls.
Lady to Lady I tell you that you know even if you meet a mature guy with all that standard, he may not be interested in you and you are too proud to chase or beg.
See, you are not ready so move on and have fun with your life and other areas of your life.
IN your 30s try again by then the standards you spent so much time explaining now will not seem important to you.
Ciao I am not under 25 sister, and your christian dogma won't sit with me. If i do become 35 and remain unmarried, i have decided that i will live life, adopt a child and get a boytoy. I have tasted what it is like to settle for a random guy(to be egging on a full grown man on what to do like his mother). Will never go through that again. But thanks for your opinion but i will be avoiding Shiloh like the plague. |

I agree with your dad. Focus on building up your career, CV and Qualications and skills. Go from masters to PHD if you can.
All these come with huge bonuses:- Career men and "oil company" men will be competing for your attention. They'll be hunting you and not the reverse. Thanks |

meekme: One thing I'll tell you is to stop being too quick to block people off like that. A simple 'No' is enough atimes as some decent men would act indecently momentarily just to test you, to see whether you'd consent to it. You must be really sexy to have thought guyz will masturbate on your normal picture. I pray you meet your Mr right soon. Good Luck. I'm very average in looks, but full of self esteem. Some nairalanders even think i am ugly,but they are entitled to their opinion and poor taste. |

Infact, I have one that has been disturbing me of marriage but he's just not my type. He knows he's not and has confronted me citing not being up to what I want but I refused to state the major reason why I won't accept to date or marry him 'cause I don't want him feeling less. I just believe that with time, things will fall in pleasant places. |

I opened this account because my main one is pretty popular.
I've had this issue and don't know what's wrong. I can't seem to get into a new relationship. I am now 25, about serving, working a normal job
My dating history is not too rich. I dated just one guy for 2 years, i became sexually active with him, we enjoyed each other, but things didn't work out. I tried to be better, have moved on, and he has too. This was mid last year. I have been celibate since then not because i don't like sex, but because i had time to think, i read a lot of books, listened to a lot of relationship counselors on YouTube, reddit, Nairaland and so on. I decided to approach dating differently, with my head and not my heart . i would vet men out who were not in line with some basic standards, to avoid fuckboys and meet high quality men. He should be well spoken, either with a career or into trade, accomplished, way older by at least 10 yrs(no i don't have daddy issues, i just like mature guys because i think like a mature person) he could also have plans to leave the country, because i plan to do that also.
Here's the issue, the men that express interest in me do not fit this criteria. They seem to have no plan for their lives. I get this impression that they are broke, they recycle the same lines all the time, i usually see their bull sh1t tactics a mile away. some are in the army(i can't date men in the armed forces, they lifestyle is not what i want for myself, cannot date doctors either for the same reason)others are artisans, some are plain hustlers who just do whatever to eat. I have a soft spot for ambitious men, and i have not seen a lot in the area that i am in. I have been advised by my friends to try highbrow areas like lekki or VI or go to church, but i don't believe in religion.
But whenever i see these men, i am not attracted to them. I have even tried online dating with some male nairalanders, but i get disinterested easily. I get turned off when someone asks for my normal pics, it is quite frustrating. There's that fear that some of these men could use my pics to masturbate or one other creepy purpose. I block them if they ask for nudes. But the issue is, it is quite exhausting to keep chatting with someone without seeing them in person and some of these guys just want to smash and run which i won't allow. No man will have access to my vagina and womb without investment and commitment. Eventually it becomes hard to keep up communication and we just fizzle out like that.
I am not under pressure to marry from my parents, infact my dad says he won't allow his daughters marry until they clock 28 and i am the first. He wants us to have a career and a life before moving with a man. I just want to know if what i am doing is right?
To be honest, i just want some words of advice and encouragement, you can ask me questions if you want. This approach of mine? Is it the right thing? Am i being too smart for my own good? Am i afraid of commitment? |
