Romance / Re: London Babe Thrown Out Of Husband's House by IyaBasira: 3:09pm On Sep 17, 2010
Oh God please spare me the crap. Its City People and that mag will type ANYTHING.


I feel disgusted that she had to go and sleep with a PAKISTANI (she has terrible taste) despite the fact that she was married, but assuming that this is true, she didn't get pregnant for herself though!

Saying stuff like "Mobo444 could be right in all the balls he has been typing all this time" is not really fair to girls like me who truly despise such actions.
Romance / Re: I Helped Her Out! So What? by IyaBasira: 2:46pm On Sep 17, 2010
@Poster ;

Ask your girlfriend this question. Is it every dog that barks that u must pay attention to?

Why do people like listening to their stupid friends and the things they say?

And you also need to start thinking about the type of people you let into your house. People like that are the type that can tell your gf that you are cheating on her when you are not and BOOM! Armageddon has begun.

You did a very nice thing which shows you care about her. But if she hasn't learnt how to appreciate this kind of gesture, then let her be. But WARN her seriously that since this is what she wants, she shouldn't ask you to help her carry out any household chores ever again.

Don't u think u are likely to be seen as a very BAD wife who has come to destroy the family?

Under these circumstances, I don't care what they say about me as from that moment on. Besides, whose family am I destroying? Its not the husbands family she was looking after. It was her OWN extended family. That is what makes it worse.

Ujujoan:

As much as I would like to believe that men are jerks, I dont think this story is entirely true.

C'mon, she dated him for three years and only realized he was a bully the month after they got married? She is either really dumb or living in a fool's paradise. I bet he was beating her even before they got married.

I always tell people that marriage is not by force. She forced herself to marry him and now she wants him to change by some miraculouse explianation. It doesnt work that way. She mad her bed, she should lie on it!




Please tell them ooooooooo. . ,


Marriage is not by force!!!


But errrmm . . . this is not a bed anyone would like to lie on so let's not be too harsh. She may indeed not have noticed the signs but as it is she has very few options considering that she is pregnant. But on the other hand, isn't the fact that she is pregnant good enough reason to leave his house? She isn't responsible for just her own life anymore, is she?
Family / Re: Is My Son Left Handed And How Do I Make Him Right Handed by IyaBasira: 9:38am On Sep 17, 2010
I am left handed and my mother often reminds me of the trauma I went through with my father because I was left handed. To make me use my right hand, my dad shouted, screamed, and threatened me with the cane. My mother on the other hand would beg him to leave me alone. But all the flogging apparently didn't work because I'm still using my left hand.
In my first day at secondary school, I was told to write down all the notes I had missed because I came late. And some of the students gathered round to see me writing because most of them had never seen a lefty before.
Like someone said, God made the left hand and made the right hand as well. Just accept it.
Family / Re: How Would I Forgive My Extended Family Members? by IyaBasira: 12:28pm On Sep 16, 2010
When people say, never let extended family into your home , it may sound selfish but now I think I understand what they are trying to say.

I am at a loss. But I think her husband should be told.

This is truly horrible. I feel so sad.

Her feeling reluctant is justified and she should never let them stay with her again.
Family / Re: Her Hubby Changed by IyaBasira: 12:23pm On Sep 16, 2010
Why hasn't she left his house yet?


It's obvious he doesn't want her or need her there. The signs are pretty obvious. Whatever love she thought he had for her , never existed in the first place.


I think she should get out before he rapes her to death.

Literature / Re: Half And Half Story 4 by IyaBasira: 11:22pm On Sep 11, 2010
WOW . . .

This is fantastic!

Dude, do you know you are an amazing writer? I wasn't too sure about this story in the beginning, but by the end, I was totally sold. I also never realized that you were the one who wrote the one of the landlord. Both pieces were hilarious.
I love the fact that you were trying to show what everyone was thinking at the same time. It made me laugh. Especially the mother of the son when she thought to herself that the dressing combination of the brides mother was a disaster.
But maybe you should have used other parts of the wedding vows so as to show the tension leading up to the point where chaos erupts? Because if everyone was thinking different things at the same time (when the 'speak now or forever hold your peace' comes up ) Mama Taiye will not have enough time to walk down , meet Baba John and have that little chat with him. Everything sort of crashes when too many things are going on at the same time.

Also, is this story set in 2010 or 2007?


Overall, I would give it and 8 out of 10. You did well. Post more stories please !

netotse:

so you saw OP mention that she leaves home at 5am, comes back at 10pm and writes report till 12am (without even hinting at the fact that she might be willing to tone it down). . .majority of the folks here hinged their reply on that fact.

as i said earlier, this thread should have been posted in family, not in romance.

Yeah I noticed that she didn't say anything about being willing to tone it down, but to me that meant that she actually enjoys her work. Which is why I mentioned that she needs to cut down on her working hours. But my point is that NL'ers love to insult people when they ask for advice. That is what annoys me.

Romance / Re: Is It Right To Runaway With Him? by IyaBasira: 12:48pm On Sep 11, 2010
@ poster ;

4 MONTHS!!! Oti oooo. Please don't even think about running away with him. If it was something like 6 years or so, I could understand. But 4 MONTHS. Babe, please forget about him. And forget about asking his brother what's going on. Guys stand by each other and they will never tell you the truth. Unless of course, his brother is truly a good person. But that is unlikely.

Asking someone to run away with you after 4 months is a huge red flag. It is very possible that he is motivated by lust and not love. I was going to tell you to investigate, but now I don't think you should waste your time. Please forget about this guy. He needs to buckle down and accept his responsibilities.
Literature / Re: First Chapter Of A Book I Just Started: Critique Plzzzz by IyaBasira: 7:08am On Sep 11, 2010
morzook:

“How many daddies do I have”?
The little girl asked her mother as they walked the unpaved road towards the expressway. The mother walked fast and the little girl scurried after her. Her mobility was being hampered [b]by her sandal which was torn [/b]and had lost both buckles. She dragged her feet and the sandal stirred dust from the earth; her legs were covered in dust.
They’d been walking for only ten minutes and their legs were already dusty. The road they walked was a nightmare and it was the only one they could use. A smart politician vying for a post as a federal representative had promised to repair the once decrepit road and the gullible populace gave him the go ahead. He brought huge tractors, the road was levelled and smoothened waiting to be tarred. The politician was elected to represent the constituency and the tractors disappeared. The road was left as it was.
The now levelled road is covered in clay which sticks to tires and soles in the rainy season and hardens in the dry season. It sends out clouds of dust in the dry season, repainting the entire house in the area in a shade of red. The woman didn’t know which one was worse, the slippery mud in the rainy season or the dirtying dusts of the dry season.
She heard her daughter’s question but pretended not to. The question was preposterous yet she knew what the little girl meant. The woman quickened her steps and the little girl increased her own speed, she caught up with her mother as they were about to cross a gutter.
The little girl was undeterred by her mother’s silence, the question she asked was one that had been piquing her for a while.
“Maamaa” she called out to her mother. “How many daddies do I have”?
“You have only one” the mother answered. “Everyone has only one daddy”.
The girl looked at her with a questioning look. Her teacher had told her that old people didn’t lie yet she knew her mother was lying. The girl knew she had more than one daddy, her mother had introduced her to all of them. She refreshed her mother’s memory.
“You know that man that comes to our house, the one with the big tummy”?
“What about him”? The mother questioned.
“You said he’s my daddy”.
“Yes he his”.
They continued walking on, the expressway was now in their line of sight. There were a lot of people already at the bust stop. The woman looked around for a tap or well where they could wash themselves off the dust from the road.
“The man that comes with a bike that smokes all the time, you also said he’s my daddy”.
“He is also your daddy”. The woman answered, she found a tap just before they got to the bus stop and pulled her daughter towards it.
The girl still had a long list of daddies to ask her mother. Her mother washed her legs and they moved on to the bus stop afterwards.
“That man that always buys me sweets, is he my daddy too”?
“Yes he is and he is your real daddy”.
The girl was unconvinced, she continued talking “what about that tall man that has a mousta…”. The mother cut her off, moustache she wanted to say.
“That is enough, I don’t want you asking me questions about your daddies again. Ever”
“But why? Why do I have many daddies when all my friends have one”?
“Count yourself lucky” the woman told her with a smile. “You have many and they have one, you are a lucky girl”.
They got to the bus stop and soon boarded a bus. They were on there way to the little girl’s school, the mother had been summoned by the head teacher. Left to the mother, she wouldn’t have gone to the school. She had to be at her shop early but her daughter had refused to leave the house without her mother in tow.
She was rest assured that whatever it is she was summoned for was not a bad incidence, her daughter never made trouble. She was intelligent and as gentle as a dove. She wondered where she got her intelligence from, the mother knew certainly that it wasn’t from her nor from any of her ancestors. She had to have gotten it from her father, whoever he his.  
The girl was a mistake on her part and she tried everything she could to abort her pregnancy. She didn’t know the father for one and a pregnancy would ruin business for her. She worked at a brothel then and she often didn’t use a condom if the price was right. She didn’t discover the pregnancy until the third month which was almost too late.
She used the pills they used and the pregnancy refused to be expunged. She went to a doctor and was advised against aborting it. She’d had too many abortions in her lifetime and that one if aborted could result in the loss of not one but two lives. Hers and the unborn child’s.
She continued working till customers started avoiding her due to the bulge in her tummy. She moved out of the brothel and rented a room in town. She managed to take care of the pregnancy and herself till she gave birth.
The baby when it came was a beautiful little girl with a mass of black curled hair. The hospital staff took turns in cradling the baby because it was the most beautiful they’d ever seen. The new mother didn’t share in their joy, she had been praying for a still birth.
She looked at the baby like it was a piece of rag when it was first handed to her. She was both relieved and angry at seeing the baby. She was relieved because she could return to her trade and angry because she had to take care of it till it was old enough to fend for itself.
She said no word till she was discharged from the hospital. She didn’t feed the baby as often as she should, and after three weeks she decided to do away with it. One early morning, she wrapped the baby in a blanket and left it in a refuse dump far away from where she lived.
She was about leaving for home when the baby bust out into a wail. The baby’s cry pierced into the serenity of the early morning. The cries touched her, touched her heart and for the first time, she felt compassion for it. She went back and picked it up, maybe taking care of it wouldn’t be a bad idea after all.
She had been alone since she was seventeen and the baby would be the only family she would have. She returned to business the next month, she did home service this time around and often the baby cried when she had a man on top of her. She always ignored its cries and faced her work. The baby cries itself to sleep and she bosom fed it when it wakes up.
The baby grew up into a beautiful little girl that everyone loved. The woman would look at the girl and thank her stars for having not abandoned it. The girl was the one good thing in her life, the only important thing to her. She always went out of her way to please the little girl.
The girl didn’t only looked lovely, she had a very high IQ. By the time she was seven, she could speak grammar that her mother didn’t know the meaning. She was good in mathematics and a very fine athlete. She has it all, looks, intelligence and patience. She is a sharp contrast to her mother.
The girl is now eight years old and taller than most of her mates. She’s the best student in her class. The mother looked at her as she sat next to her in the bus, she was very proud of her daughter. She held her close to her side and stroked her hair, they were almost at the girl’s school.
The girl sat close to her mother and looked into her eyes, she still had a thousand and one questions to ask her. She would wait till they got to the school.


Firstly, I like the way you began the story. The question the little girl asked is indeed a thought - provoking question and one that would embarass most mothers in public.

But you seem to be a little verbose sometimes and at other times you use very simple ways of getting your point across. The latter works fine for most people, but where you say "Her mobility was", you could just have said "Her movement was". Also, saying "by one of her sandals which was torn " is better than  " by her sandal which was torn ".  


Therefore, the whole sentence would be ;

" Her movement was being hampered by [b]one of her sandals which was torn and had lost both buckles".[/b]

Instead of

" Her mobility was hampered by her sandal which was torn and had lost both buckles ".

Apart from a number of grammatical errors, such as " The girl didn't only looked lovely" (rather than "The girl didn't only look lovely" ) , or "incidence", ( instead of incident  ).

Refrain from repeating yourself. You had already mentioned that she was intelligent. And then you later said that she "had a very high IQ". And you went on to repeat that in another line. You could just say " She was / is a very  bright and pleasant child. "
Also, try to say " She had the gift of making her mother burst into laughter even if she was on the verge of tears " .

If you want to portray how important the girl is to her mother, make sure you demonstrate it in a way that people will always relate to.

Also, you said "She had it all, looks, intelligence and patience". You are seeing through the eyes of a mother and her child but you seem to be injecting things that a guy would say when admiring a beauty queen. To say that she has "looks" is a bit inappropriate for a child her age.

There were other things but that's the most I can do for now.

Overall,  I thought it was a good theme, and it would be better if you could decide whose point of view to see from. Are you looking at things from the mothers view, the view of weary wisdom or that of the child , the view of innocent intellect? Or are you describing them as you would describe 2 strangers walking down a dusty road? Try to decide whether you would like to see things from your angle, the mother's , or the child's.

Ok . . .

To be honest I think he was overreacting. Considering the circumstances of how he corrected her, I don't think it's something to get angry about.
But for him to say that you shouldn't socialize with the guy any more , it looks like he thinks you may start cheating on him with that guy. Whatever his reasons are I don't know. But there is a huge lack of trust in everything your husband said.

Beync:

we both work in same campany, then he asked me for a date i told him i never wished and won't date where i work. he said i shouldnt mind what people will say that what matter is that he want me for real.i told him i will not be confortable dating someone in my office. he decided he will get another job and leave the company to make sure we go out. he was so persistent that i couldnt help but fall in love with him thou on platonic level. he never invited me to his house but he told me the area where he stays. he cares, makes me feel loved and happy, and he is so happy with me, he cares everything like God sent. one day he told me he want to see  me for a talk on which he started by telling me that thou his close friend said  he shouldnt tell me now but he doesnt no how to hide anything from me that there is a girl he was about marryin that after introduction betrayed him by sleeping with her former boyfriend and now that she is pregnant she does' no who owns the pregnancy and for the fact that he has done some introduction on her she is under his care right now in his house with his mother till after birth when they would ascertain the owner of the pregnancy. i felt so bad and told him to go back and reconcile with her since they have started something but he dint want to hear this. then i started looking for ways to free myself cos i dont want to come inbetween their mariage, as i  tried avoiding him, he noticed and told me dat am the only thing he have now that if i leave him he is finished. infact fews day before he got  new job and left our company he told me that the girl has deliverd a baby girl that after six weeks test would prove who owns baby and after which she will leave  whether or not the baby belong to him or not. today he called me from where he works and told me the uncle said the baby belong to him and he should get ready for some traditional stuff. Now he said he is making arrangement to travle out that i should get ready to move with him that he can no longer stay here, i have tried to calm him down not to runaway that it wont solve the situation but he sound so hurt, he said i want ot get maried to anther person thats why i dont wont to run with him. pls my fellow nairalanders is dis relationship heathy? what do you think i should do, i l appreciate your candid advise, thanx.

This seems very fast. Can you tell us how long you guys have been dating?

On the other hand, you seem very reasonable. You can keep it up by choosing not to let your emotions take over. Ignore what he's saying about there being someone else you want to marry. Guys always say that and its really just emotional blackmail.
Also, what he told you is just that - its what HE told you. There is no guarantee that what he is saying is the truth and not just a pack of lies. He might already be married to her. Do you know that? All he has to do is tell her "Baby, I'll be away for a few days " and you will be told "Honey, let's run away together. " And when some months have gone by, he eventually disappears. You don't see him again. You've left your job, your home and your country because of some guy who wants extra booty.

Please do NOT run away with him. Even if you must, then please go on a thorough investigation to make sure that all he says is true. Wherever he chooses to go is his business. But you cannot take the risk of running away with someone who cannot even stay for the sake of his own child. Remember the old saying ; What someone does to someone else is what they will do to you.

Of course I did. You saw it yourself didn't you? Look, if something is wrong, it is wrong. When mutter was not making sense on another thread , we were able to agree with each other. But THIS! No.
Common sense should tell you that nobody wants to work 24 hours and neglect their wifely duties. What makes you think she doesn't want to sit down and relax? If she came to this site to post a problem, its really daft of you to make such a comment. Why would you just assume that because she's having a problem means that she's interested in being a bad wife? There's no reason to assume the worst of someone based on a few lines she wrote.
No i'm not bored or hopeless. I just don't like insensitive and unintelligent comments. I mean I was disappointed in you. I really really expected you to have more sense. But I guess I overestimated you.
Family / Re: My Dad Needs Money Again! Please Help! by IyaBasira: 7:25pm On Sep 08, 2010
Mad_Max:

I hate the kind of psychological vampirism where a parent thinks he's done you a favour putting you thru school, and waits to recoup his 'investment'. His dad is not ill or in want, he's not being neglected, he's wasting his son's financial resources as he deems fit on business schemes,because he feels entitled. The poster's been working for two years and doesn't have his own place or a car. His money is going towards meeting these sort of obligations and 'investment payback' mentality demands. One understands people who are projecting their own fathers on the OP's and responding from that, but a parent that sends a child to school is responsible and one that doesn't is irresponsible; it doesn't make the child an indentured servant because his dad gave him an education. The poster has been made to feel he owes his father, and feels guilty because another demand is being made and he can't do a thing. He's angry and frustrated and unhappy.

Maybe your dad doesn't realise how much strain you're under. Maybe they feel they should get as much as they can from you now before you get married or something. You don't need to feel guilty about saying No, even of you have the money. You have your own life. Start planning for it and aiming for what you want. Take care of your father's NEEDS when you can. He can take care of his own wants and his own business schemes. A parent wouldn't put a child under such strain. You're supposed to enjoy taking of your father, while he appreciates you, not pander to a sense of entitlement where he takes everything you do for him as his due and sees you as his personal money-producing factory. Tell him you can't help out this time. Start saving for your own place. Move out. When he needs you be there to show your love. When he wants to waste your money, like now, say NO and don't feel guilty.


Hopefully this will inject some sense into the heads of those people saying he should provide where there is nothing to be provided.

This lady is not qualified to be called a wife, she is a contract wife and as such no serious advise is required. If she wants to be a wife then she should learn the basics of been a wife.

abeg go and make your marriage work and stop complaining to the public, i wish i read your original post.

maybe u are looking for excuse to go outside, sorry dear it is not that simple anymore


Can someone please explain why everyone is being so insensitive? I read the original post but didn't comment because I KNEW Nl'ers would rain all sorts of insults on her. You guys need to chill sometimes. Its easy for you to insult her and tell her she's a contract wife and all what not but do you know how she feels?
If someone asks for advice they are doing so not because they like airing their laundry out in the open, but because they NEED advice! You people on Nairaland have the habit of doing so and its a very stupid habit to say the least. This is just a woman who is overworked. Keep your meaningless insults to yourself! Jeez.

@Poster ; If they haven't driven you away already, then here is what I think. You are going to have to cut down on your working hours. That's it. Working ten hours is not good for anyone's health. You need to relax . . . Is there any way of reducing your workload? Please find a way. If the worst comes to the worst, then you might have to quit the job to make your home happier. Something clearly has to give here. If it was a man in this situation, all the morons screaming blue murder would have said "Well, he is a man and he needs to provide!". But since your husband is also working and you said he gets home earlier than you do, then you need to do something about that job. And tell him to be a little more sensitive to your plight. Its not like anyone would work if not for the money.
