RomanceRe: My Fiancee Must Pay For This Hurt/pain. by here: 11:17am On Jan 07, 2014
pimpchi: My babe(fiancee) just dumped me after 4yrs of relationship and our wedding plan is to hold this june. she broke the news to me yestanyt........ D most painful is that i hv sacrificed so much for her... so much... crying, someone plz comfort me.
I must avenge this hurt, i cnt b down while she is happy... i will make sure she lives d rest of her life in sorrow. i hv some wicked plans for her nw bt i need most painful methods and suggestions from you guys plz. i dnt wnt her to die , i jst wnt to put her in much more pain.
plz Mod, don't push to front page. plz
update: Thanks to every one that suggested that i should move on... but i have tried to and it isn't working. i haven't slept since she broke the news to me. i have enough reasons to give back my pound of flesh ...... because of this girl, i am not in good relationship with my family, my family accused me of carrying another family's responsibilities and neglecting mine. i sat down and took my time to evaluate the amount of money i expanded on the family and my babe, it ws over 900k.excluding eateries,gifts,recharge cards and so on. she sent me a text last nite and u cnt imagine, she asked me to check all my expenses on her and that she is willing to pay me twice the amount...This girl can never go scot free, never. Nobody has a monopoly of wickedness..... since she could send such useless text to me, Hmmmmmm...... i jst ask forgiveness from God for my intent towards her.....u cnt hurt some people dearly and expect to move on happily while the other suffers in depression and pain. thanks nairalanders for your good will(s).
Be thankful she didnt wakeup one morning after marriage and call it off. Its a case that happens that people do not want to accept.Yes you are in love with someone for 20years but I am telling you they can wakeup one morning and dont love you anymore.Men cover theirs by trying outside and nasty experience bring them back but dear its unfortunate it happened to you but you over did it maybe and you are getting the nasty side of her.
If for any reason you both were in love for years that should let you lower your ego(you think its hurt) and move on.You are alive so concentrate on your family now and give them 900k too that way you feel you didnt over do outside.
No sane man regrets money spent on a woman no matter the outcome dear.
If you make her suffer,so?
Infact bless her and move on that's what men do and apologize to her for making the break look bad.Yeah painful and your ego but hell no dedicate that energy to making 1Million and give to your parents who need it.
Just try these and tell me how your doing in 5yrs
RomanceRe: Is Sex Necessary In A Relationship? by here: 10:27am On Jan 07, 2014
mrsincredible: the thing is can u guys wait that long?
I like to say its a very nice decision,you set a goal and achieve it dear.
Quoted above as i think its very wrong to say "guys",you wouldnt be dating all of us so I dont see where that term comes to play.
I think you need to go out there and get the right man for you,you both agree and when its time to settle down you both ask yourselves if you played away and if you can forgive whatever you did to stay fit.
Goodluck with you decision and please we need to stop painting men as freak,doesnt make sense making allegations on the other gender.Wonder how that makes you all feel
RomanceRe: Women Are Not Always The Problem In Relationships by here:
I am a believer of "recently around developing countries particularly Africa,people tend to want to see who they love suffer and if they dont see them do that there is a feeling something is missing".

Don't ever try to put the blame on a gender in the war of the matters of the heart,while trying to justify behaviour of few you talked about you have ended up laying all on "men".

Believe me the problem is this "each gender believes s/he should be worshiped" and when one wants more and stop being considerate things happen. Each gender hates to see the other "know too much about what they want".

Also understand its neither "men's" fault if your man cheats nor "women's" fault if your woman is something else.

These comments you mentioned,you dont know what they have been through. or what environment they are so pls dont judge them.When I see a failed case I just feel its an unfortunate case and wish them goodluck but no sane person should take sides if you want to help "them".About Grandfather's advice I need you to withdraw that, because "our parents were never wrong" so pls never ever try to judge anyway they lived their lives.

If s/he cheats or acts wrongly I expect the victim to say " I might not forgive now bt pls give me sometime to heal,that way the other party doesnt carryon thinking all is well.So ask me I say if such things were not said when appology was tendered then dont tell me,s/he wasnt supposed to carryon like nothing happened.Express yourself about what you want!

Ever wondered why no matter how bitter some persons are these days still marriage is still regarded as the best thing to happen to them.Do yourselves for all we care but marriage and relationships will never stop.

Yes lies have been believed over years,but they are like proverbs,stop trying to change it by declaring a war.People will do them no matter how anyone tries to stop them.Yes males were told she is this or that but she is everyman's dream. Is he also her dream lately? You tell me.

While he has money to recharge and come buy sentiments and announce,someone has no 1kobo to buy garri and sip.
While he has a family picking fights and someone wishing he had someone of same blood.You are healthy and only accept defeat in matters of emotion why not visit hospitals,sell off all you have and pay bills of people who want to live or even mortuary bills of those who cannot pay to claim their loved ones.
While he has a gf who left someone has never found love and many ladies are approaching 50 hoping someone might atleast tell them they are beautiful.
She talked down on you,so? They picked fights you have not heard of people leave home to travel to achieve their dreams?
Yes I buy it your brain for a moment cannot process everything but you know the saying "Those who commit suicide are fools,they want the easy way out and never want to be around to get it fixed".
I dont guarantee you everything will be fine,infact nature might even take you away like the Apple guy but "do you know the beauty of 2mrw? Everyman can pay anything to see it"
Goodluck with what you make of life and you think at the other end there not those in pains and others in joy?I have prayed God to forgive you.
And just so you know I have seen vulcanizers in their late 50s earn so little but didnt kill themselves.
In Daniel they said to the king "Even if Our God be not able to deliver us,we'll not bow"

Its a sad case.
Lookout for threads that ask for solutions and you can imagine the replies,in a standards secondary school you find children who can engage in sound discusion than here.
I guess its a reflection of how much hate different tribes and life frustration by many.
I always ask myself,how can. their problem be the post of another? Before you even think of something nice to reply to a thread you have names your worst enemy would never call you.
I think its going to destroy this forum over time except something is done.
It was supposed to be make your point and move on,if you have other opinion say it and argue but the name calling and fight ratio without any reasonable posts demanded of adults is sad

PoliticsRe: PDP Asks Court To Remove Defecting Governors by here: 8:25pm On Dec 13, 2013
pokur: Claim 1 being the crux of the case was resolved in favour of Atiku.It effectively says no executive officeholder can be removed from office except in compliance with provisions of the Constitution. That is,by impeachment,death,resignation,permanent incapacitation or removal by an Electoral Tribunal.
I'm still looking for links to the judgement so I can post relevant portions here.
Please do but understand my stand,in that case his seat was dclared vacant by the President who the court held he doesnt have such power and the constitution said a President's nomination is only valid when he has nominated a vice so you see thats the courts definition of Executive office but here the main man has left the party who owns the mandate and his vice hasnt and even if the vice has the next man in rank the speaker might still be there.Its simple case of interpretation,that's why there are courts you know.
The court would have to interprete the judgement you want us to believe that is if it will be cited.
What I think anyone who has foresight shoule be asking is then they should also have asked the court to compel INEC to allow them do another primaries should a case arise where the Gov,Vice and other ranks declared by the constitution to take over have also left the party.
PoliticsRe: PDP Asks Court To Remove Defecting Governors by here: 8:13pm On Dec 13, 2013
Delafruita: as referenced in the case you quoted,defendants included the FG,the AGF and the IGP.much as atiku's intention was to seek an interpretation of the constitution as regards his crosscarpeting and declaration of his seat as been vacant,we should not lose sight of the fact that the AGF been listed as a defendant along with the FG and INEC technically means it isn't just a case of the legality or otherwise of his seat been declared vacant by the president,it has more to do with his seat been declared vacant by whomever.

Like I said earlier,pdp is on a wild goose chase the only purpose of which will be academic at best.it will be wrong for anyone to make reference to amaechi v omehia/pdp/inec in support of the suit filed by pdp

Nowhere from sections 176-191 is crosscarpeting listed as a reason for a seat to be declared vacant.sections 188 and 189 detail conditions under which a governor may be removed and decamping is none of them.
Nice we are agreeing on something.
His seat was declard vacant and his rights withdrawn,he would have gone to court restraining the President/PDP and ask the Judge to do that through an order without the other party being heard but his lawyers were sound and saw an opening.
In this case I cannot even takeup the case because will not end well.Yes I understand anyone's sentiment but like in the days of Obj,he knew he was wrong but if for 3 months he can keep Atiku away from state power he considered ot an achievement.
I am only predicting these govs will not be in office at either at this court or appeal,its the same game keep them away for a time and see how you can weaken them even if for a moment.Look at what happened,as at when Atiku got his judgement he was in UK,if you can keep them away from allocation for 2 months many of them will travel out.
Understand where I am going,its a game not what we believe.
PoliticsRe: PDP Asks Court To Remove Defecting Governors by here: 2:14pm On Dec 13, 2013
Delafruita: the case of PDP v Atiku wasn't a case of who is legally empowered to declare a seat vacant,rather it was a case of "can a seat be declared vacant because an elected official decamped to another party and the SC ruled in effect that though political parties contest election,it is not binding that individuals elected on the platform of a party must remain in that party post-election.the case of amaechi is similar to the ararume v pdp/onyema in imo.the difference was that judgement was issued in ararume's case before the election and inec had to recognize him as the pdp candidate.pdp then sent a letter to inec indicating it was withdrawing from the elections and hence ararume had no platform.in amaechi'ss case,the case remained in court before the election and continued till after omehia had been sworn in.its conclusion was that the case was strictly a pre-election case and couldn't be treated as a post-election case.it was a simple case of "in the eye of the law,omehia was never a candidate of the pdp and so amaechi should be sworn in as governor".that is a totally different case from decamping.

The pdp is simply wasting its time
There is a reason I don't follow general opinion,I need to see the copy of the judgement and hope you can help me with that.
I have seen the prayers at Appeal and it was about if the President can declare his seat vacant which were in the actions,go through you will find where it's was stated that there is evidence to show both werent in good relationship.
Also notice I didnt cite Imo as I am working on available facts and actions before the court. No PDP is not wasting their time.I also was like how could someone like Obj's lawyer do the submissions he did kowning the outcome, as the court stated " The president has no right under the constitution to declare the VP position vacant"
So we need to know what the prayers were and how many were granted not what most persons here believe.
We cannot keep arguing over a judgement no one has pasted even a paragraph but I suggest you read the Appeal's

I think I feel funny when people comment without having idea of atleast 50% of the facts about Obj vs Atiku or Attorney Gen & others vs Alh. Atiku.
I will open a thread so maybe someone who has the full judgement can bring up the link and we all read and state what our opinions are.For now I have seen this link
www.nigeria-law.org/Attorney-General%20of%20the%20Federation%20&%20Ors%20v%20Alhaji%20Atiku%20Abubakar%20&%20Ors.htm and cannot read down as I am using a phone but got to the Appeal.
To be frank I think in the above case the question was whether Mr. President/PDP has the right to declare the V.P's seat vacant,the court held that the President cannot drop the VP AFTER elections,so you see here its the main man who leads the mandate that defected.Obj went about it wrongly that is why I think they are trying this option,go to court and since the court says we dont have the right let the court tell us in this instance make a declaration.Its like saying interprete the S.C judgement.Trust me the above case might not be cited as here its a party trying to ask the court give it its mandate that its Principal flag bearer has taken to another party which any court will look at and grant

How can you encourage a girl you intend to marry to double date?
She is young and alittle confused but you are really turning her to something else clouding her judgement by being all over her.Imagine even giving you green light to go see her parents though asked you to wait.
Hope you understand the seed you are sowing.
Not every wife material we saw that we got married to.
Yes we are inlove with one at a time but I think you are not being rational.You are not desperate then why not let her know you love her but can wait if she by the time she is ready can love you back and you move on.But no you must pressure her even asking her to part with him?
You are really hard to believe.
Is it that you were running away from working class and fully grown women or you think you are not up to.
Sorry but alittle pissed at how you are going about it and was she your first love?

You need to tell your parents so they can help you with caring for the children and so you and the "hot chicks" can go about your normal lives as you have "better things" in sight.
I am being frank here because that is the only option except you want me to advice you on not so clean ways.
Since you can care for them let your parents decide how they suggest the children can be accomodated when they are delivered and most importantly the delivery,both ladies deserves to be cared for and let me not hear any lost at delivery because she used one terrible hospital.
You need to fix your life man,though you have these at hand you really have not understood what life is about;its your case that makes people call young people clueless,no abortion please.
For the baby that you are not sure,take her to scan to know possible week she took in and if still in doubt care for her till she delivers then you can ask for dna,you need to show responsibility that is if you understand what that means.
Goodluck friend
RomanceRe: I Suspect My Boyfriend Is Cheating On Me! by here: 6:29pm On Dec 07, 2013
SQURA: You are Taurus (no mistake this time) and he is Aquarius

Let me give you my verdict before i begin. Its a relationship to be avoided whenever possible.

But why?

You Bf hates formality and does not recognise superiors, unless they have earned his respect. Security and material things, that are very important to you is not just important to him, at all. He likes to talk with people who are very intelligent, at least an intelligent conversation, and i doubt you can live up to that hype. He loves work, you love home. He changes job frequently (if he is already living a job life) and that you dont like. You may have noticed your emotional outbursts doesn't deter him or change him, he wants differences to be discussed in a cool way and with much honesty, and that you may lack. Emotion will impair his sense of judgment, well thats how he feels.
But You are the jealous type, especially when he spends time trying to help a friend in his problem or trying to do something to help the community or the world. But bad for you, there will be no sympathy in this direction. You only need to accept his unpunctuality, his hatred for routine and discipline and live with him inspite of all that.
Sex is on a low place on his list of necessities, though the need is there oh, but this attitude may make you annoyed. You may just become over demanding in his eyes.
Will be totally wrong to advise that since they are not compatible it cannot work. That is why signs are grouped and even further divided into categories in each group (early,mid and late date of birth).
Aqua is a community person,wants to help and thats a compliment.He is a born teacher sometimes finds it frustrating landing an early nice job but creative and intelligent yes Tau can be free spirit like Gem and very annoying but Aqua is not prone to work like Capri.Aqua just likes to work all day but wants to come home and do his part,likes sense of orderliness.Yes some say intimacy gives him goodluck but its something he shys from because he has challenges with career at first but when he settles you can trust him to keep you awake all night.
The essence of astro was to help people understand each other not to scare them like many groups adopted.If you descourage Aqua and Tau what will you say of Aqua and Capri or Capri and Cancer? Just educate them that way they look out for such signs and sign in of they can cope but pls dont tell anyone not to.
Notice I majored on Aqua because trust me Aqua and Tau can adapt to anyone, they are free spirited forget the jealousy;all they need is a man who can play the role

I wasnt there but I have tried to look at that listing,the ANC and PAC both banned in 1960 had their armed youth wing.
The ANC were alittle more cordianted and elightened that even when they were banned made their promising members go abroad not just on exile but to study,check Mbeki and not just any kind of study like one economist enroling for African studies at masters.
Do you know how organised they were? They had root in most African countries and before you blame those who listed them consider that their intentions were not fully accepted by even some African countries that once Zuma was to be deported from Swaziland;except for Obasanjo who received them but no account of them operating a base here maybe he didnt allow that.
Lastly like every group that has emerged the world power has always looked at them with both eyes because they could fall into the wrong hands,do you know some believed Castro had links to him,you know how that can be classified but the consolation is when Scotland campaign for his release started notice how many mayors signed asking he be released.
Know I have not made my points but consider Charles de
Gaulle of France how was looked at as only interested in affairs of his people,Stalin was even given better corporation than him,if he were to be from Africa and had an armed group under his party,trust me he would have been classified.

Imagine the fate of a widow of such union,ignorant and has no help.
I saw a case of an eastern woman married to another faith in Kaduna,immediately the man died her inlaws came from Nasarawa to take all the kids back to the family house from her.Reason: she didnt convert and they dont want her children to take off with her as their brother's children cannot be allowed to practice her religion.They didnt even ask how she was going to fend for herself and her children taken from her.

coogar: a childless home is the same everywhere. even if you have a couple who married from the same compound, they will be stressed if they don't have a child after 10 years.

until people start looking beyond maps, dots & rivers drawn by colonial masters, things will remain stagnant. if nigeria breaks into 20 parts, there would still be hatred amongst the people within the same entity.
Fact! only I think there is more pressure when two languages are involved.

I started this thread to help show there is a problem hoping some has the answers,you just did.

Emeralddeee: There's nothing wrong in inter tribal marriage, with the level of civilisation I think it's nice to explore other peoples culture . Although it's true that one's ethnic background plays a dominant role in the way one behaves, I doubt if that will be an issue so long as both parties have adequate understanding, also I'll have to counteract one of your point were you pointed out that such marriages do not last, that is highly fallacious, so couple's tribal difference does not determine the success of their marriage. Rather it's effective communication and understanding.
There isnt supposed to be any problem but there is around here and I wish there is that understanding and extended family pressure handled together.
There is civilisation but who can tell the rate?
Do you know only 1 western lady will marry an eastern man even though 10 of the eastern ladies can afford to?
Do you know how how many of plateau,Benin and Nupe women will marry outside their tribes?
I like to bring to your notice that any inter tribal marriage with no child might not last,infact if the man from an inter tribal union remarries 8/10 will be from his tribe.
I dont have statistics but would like you look around you if you are in Nigeria and not abroad
Really need you guys to stop proving me wrong and lets answer "why".I have travelled round and we are just living in denial if we assume we have passed that stage

coogar: there's no pain in intertribal marriage.
people just readily use it as an excuse when problem comes. there's more pain in intra-tribal marriages than inter-tribal. as long as there's love between the 2 parties, nothing should make them lose focus.
I know you have your experience but I have tried not to be hard on any tribe and understand I said if they are isolated means I know there is love,but does that stop a mother inlaw's anger from the west whose daugher from the east who hasnt given birth? Show me a childless home they have lived 10 years and I can tell they are either strong faithfuls of any faith or not inter tribe.
Not trying to prove you wrong but can anyone mention 3 problems that can occur and inter tribal marraige is used as an excuse?
I wanted this thread to bring such out so we consider why the problems.
PoliticsRe: PDP In Fresh Move To Remove Amaechi, 4 Other Govs by here: 12:23pm On Dec 04, 2013
priscaoge: My question is this,wat hapened wen Yuguda left ANPP 2 PDP,Orji n Ohakin 4rm PPA 2 PDP or is it only wen u leave PDP dat ur seats bcom vacant?
The question is did the party who feel wronged go to court,did they pursue it to the top?
Let me be frank with you,most SANs in Nigeria dont want their names on cases with much publicity and they fail.
Atiku's case is different from Gov. Amaechi to me.Now the question is "when they approach the courts what will be their prayer?"
Once a court grants this which it'll without hearing the other party,the Gov stands removed.He'll appeal by himself as his new party might not have a ground to,the appeal might go six months to 1year by then we are almost at election he is no longer in control of party structure in the state and anyone who wins primaries gets the state.His judgement will come even if in his favor but the tenure has elapsed.
My opinion though.
FamilyThe Pain Of Inter Tribal Marriages by here(op):
It's fun to see two love birds no matter where they come from,but the truth is there are issues that we havent resolved that will come up;battle line drawn and maximum give the union 20yrs.Except in cases where the union is isolated from the family of the man which no one can bear.

These issues scared our parents to their bones and they preferred within your tribe,and you cannot blame them.Look at the war between the East and West here alone and imagine their sisters getting married to the other tribe,while the elites have their common ground they still shy away even from inter tribal marriage.

Lets atleast be frank,it has its challenges.I commend the eastern women they can really risk it though I see most ending up badly but look at others;look at Akwa Ibom,she'll prefer to stay single till 35 if she doesnt find a man of same language and the instruction of her mother.

Not promoting any tribe,but pained we were supposed to cross lines our parents couldnt


Modified: I think this thread was misunderstood, not discouraging inter tribal marriages but asking what instance have you seen,what pressure did they face and how was it handled? Thats the essence of this thread and was the purpose of the last sentence.
RomanceRe: I Can't Believe That Guys Will Sleep With Those Rough Looking Girls In Brothels by here:
It must be made clear that no man goes to meet a prostitude with a clear mind,like no man beats his wife with clear heart.Something is eating him and maybe he has lost it.

Same way no woman in her clear mind decides to make a living by opening her legs,I feel pity for them and really wish I can help but still have my plans though.

If you interviewed them some don't even have an home to sleep some ra-pe victims who lost sense of reason after the incident and you need to be frank about what happens at offices too to know there is really no difference only these ones dont take care of themselves,its an overall sad case.

When I read through this post I was expecting to see the op saying and she "she helped a fellow woman by either stopping and giving one 500 to feed or removing the 10th of her salary for 6months, pay a rent and ask these ladies to go stay or find an NGO incharge of recovering these ladies from the streets and offer to help";but its about men sleeping with "dirty women"...no man will ever describe his fellow man with such.

We really have a long way to go around here in matters of the heart,these women were once in their prime of beauty and whatever happened to their skin and welfare,op I hope you and many others can understand they need help and doesnt matter what they do with thr help.Some accept and still go back but trust me they dont last before they come to their senses.

FamilyRe: Nigerian Killed By A Lorry After Storming Out Of Car During Row With Wife In UK by here: 8:16am On Nov 29, 2013
In as much as I like to believe the spouse who stopped driving and parked at middle of no where deserves to be purnished I like to advice my fellow men,we have to accept the male folks have the more tendency of dying and since that's true " we need to riseup and be the men our mothers trained us to be and do it with love".She can nag all night but we need to teach ourselves how to overcome these emotional abuse without turning to monsters(let us accept drinking or bullying doesnt solve it).

We have always been knwon as the only gender that cant tell his follow "drive your wife".But we need to help more.In this case he could have called his friend up and stayed with his family or by the car till the alternative comes.

We need to learn to stay calm in middle of these.I might not have experience but we take anything dished out at work with such high spirit and hone shouldnt be a problem.Yes we expect home to be a paradise but if its not then we have to find a way to atleast see tomorrow.

Makes no sense when we cannot commit suicide but we keep exposing ourselves to harms way without reason.I like to see a man get up at 2am to go pickup his fellow man stranded on highway and make his wife speak withe the other wife;that is what we are knwon for.Nothing should change that
