Mrs, Chima:
SMH@if the rings are taken off means heading for divorce  

You miss me that much

here is my post which you took outta context

jay bee:
Engagement ring => Commitment to the course <= Not yet taken as it's only a bloody ring at that stage
Wedding ring => Commitment fulfilled <= You can't just take the ring off and decide you aren't taken any more as process of divorce should normally kick in if the couple decides to split

With the above assertions, i believe the title of the thread should be changed to nobody is taken until they have been joined at the altar  

emöfine:
Something like that.

They practice Islam?

anyhoo, breaking of the kolanut coupled with bride price shenanigan equates to being taken so says Naija traditional weddings

emöfine:
My parent's don't have a "ring on it" but they're "taken".

Did they break kolanut at the traditional wedding?

chika98:
Yeah well in that case that person has no business getting married or even thinking about it. A sensible woman knows and can tell when a man is just BS'ing and when he's being for real.

Sadly sense gets negated when the women aren't empowered. You are sensible because you are empowered and can do more than a man can ever dream of in most cases. We can't really say that about most Nigerian women.
There are so many reasons why that's the case though so that discussion is for another thread.

Chik, it's all about can you take care of me and my needs by most Naija ladies

freecocoa:
Una don talk am finish.

talk your own jor
Abeg make i commot the ring wey dey ya finger

chika98:
Yeah so we're essentially saying the same thing. Find a man who truly loves you really. If he loves you for REAL then you two stand a chance with dedication and hardwork. Anyway wetin me sef know? LOL!

Yes we are, but you are all about technicalities whereas i'm trying to simplify it for the common gyals on the street who would most probably jump at the mere uttering of i loff uuuuu

Fixed

I get what you mean. I even wanted a brother for my brother when I was younger (and to neutralize the female presence).
Funnily enough my brother never cared for an additional brother. Who needs brothers when you have six loving sisters eh

Nice spin, but sisters aren't known to be good at tutoring when it comes to getting the first girl, getting your first sampling et al

chika98:
Yeah but a man who loves you just does. I've never really understood all that who loves who more shenanigan.
I'm great!  You?

Technically Yes, but practically most Nigerian Guys don't understand what loving someone entails hence the reason for the girls to always make sure the prospective dude wants them more.
Nigerian dudes are notorious for uttering the words "I love you" so as to get into the unsuspecting gullible girls pants hence the highly needed verifier of making sure they want them more before signing their respective lives away.

Doing aiight

chika98:
Actually I do agree with Sagamite. Relationships and marriage SHOULD be something both parties enjoy
and work towards always. Communicate and all but by gawd I will not kill myself over a man who has checked out
emotionally and then stay in some unhappy marriage because " God doesn't like divorce". I'll do my best but if it ain't working out then peace out! I see so many Nigerian couples in something they call "marriage".

Also I don't think I'll ever understand when people say marry a man who loves you more? Like is love quantifiable? there's a bucket where we can measure it out? When two people fall in love with each other isn't it supposed to be love between the two? Which one again is a man who loves you more?

Love isn't quantifiable but surely knowing if you are wanted more than the norm shouldn't be that difficult to figure out.


How are ya?

emöfine:
Really? I never knew you were yarning true last time. You're in a similar position to my brother then. I even used to suspect my brother was the favourite once upon a time due to the reasons you listed but I discovered otherwise.

Yes ohhhhh
Kinda suck though cos growing up I never had someone to play with and the few friends i had at the time weren't allowed to visit.
So many things that happened in the past that i wished i had a brother to talk to who might have been able to guide me accordingly.
Anyhoo, iI'msure momma still proud of me so nothing do me

All i need packaged is yaself to london town

anonymous6:
No,  she is African from the Ivory coast but it shouldn't be a surprise because I never heard or seen a black african footballer/AA woman couple before

That's simply because most African players ply their trade in Europe.

Sagamite:
Bros, as I keep on telling you guys: Most women don't understand the meaning of "fair", "equal" or "balanced". They just want an advantage that is all.

And if you give them the advantage, guess what? They would still dumb your arse (if they are still attractive enough to play in the market) because to them you are a wuss.

As far as I am concerned, most woman will leave a relationship they are not happy with or not interested in (if their is not restraining constraint - financial, aesthetic, baggage) but yet they will scream if it is the other way round. They only want an advantage.

Don't we all want the same?
we want them to be figure whatever coupled with brains so as to adequately subsidize our purse.
Oga saga, go marry

Yeah if we are both kool about it being nothing serious
I can't be in a relationship with someone i work with. 2 different scenarios

Oga Saga => drama king  

ronkebp:
Just wondering how a mother would have a favourite amongst her children.

Perfectly possible and somewhat understandable sometimes
I'm supposed to be the fav simply because i'm the only boy as well as being the last with six elder sisters.

Pennywise:
If this family was in America, man and wife will be tried for corruption found guilty and given lenghty jail sentences with all their assets seized and forfeited to the state. In China, they will be shot. Here we are celebrating them. How can this country move forward

GBAM

alj harem:
No,

First of all I would like to correct you on the highlighted part

it was not the son but Babangida daugther's wedding, Also it was not the daughter that hired the rapper it was Babangida himself that hired Joe in the wedding to surprise the daugther. The daugther has no such money.

mohammed hired him to sing at his wedding to rahama

People from Oyo/Ogbomosho where 'em lines are mostly known to come from aren't mostly muslims.

All drinks would be on me for awon boiz to celebrate


I'm the dude that has been e-stalking you all over the board

^^
Turbo my a.zz back to dreamland


I'm butt naked by your side on tha bed

You want to take a loan to trade in something that can make you lose all your initial investment?
Are you OK Mr?

Because they don't fall under the romance section remit

dolly a:
sanaa is d most beautiful i cant believe shes 40!!!!!!!!!!
gwad am soooooooooooo jealous

Roll with me and we'd perfect the sequel script of "the curious case of dolly a"

Yes if it's OK for your sister's bf to use her as a punching bag

Oilatium is all you need

canuck:
It's a good start, jay bee. Discussions like these prepare the people to stand up to the govt like they did recently. BTW, if SA Omokri is doing his job, these complaints should get to Presido. (PS: I have a feeling GEJ has abandoned his Facebook account for the sake of his sanity - See as Naijas dey yab and curse am for there!)

@Op But for the recent focus on "high cost of governance" GEJ would have appointed a Coordinating Special Adviser for all Special Advisory functions  

Na today
Is it not the same Nigeria where status quo continues as long as awon boyz remain happy is the other of the day

Never-ending discussions without actions equates to time wasting.

~Bluetooth:
And what happens to those on the streets trying to instil accountability in government ? General jonathan sent soldiers to kill them !

The only simple and viable proposition is for people to either recall their elected reps or better still wait until the next election to make their bloody vote count.
They voted the man in so they had better live with it.

chaircover:
It is in situations like this that we see the differences in the sexes. I am a woman and I know that God forbid if I go out and cheat, it wont because of something simple like he winked at me at a party or I just liked his height or his shirt (Ive heard some really silly excuses from men though)

So if I cheat its because of something fundamentally wrong with my relationship. Now if based on all that, my husband chooses not to do anything about it if he found out that I cheated and just let me be and we live together like nothing happened, then I know that I am sleeping with fire on my roof and I had better sleep with one eye open.

In a nutshell, men dont deal with cheating the same way women do. Not right, I know but that I am afraid is the truth.

Will the above assertions apply to Van the man as well

Complaining on NL just wouldn't get you guys anywhere
