RomanceRe: Marry A Chinese Man - A lot of them are Single and Hungry for a Woman by Jenifa1: 6:44am On Sep 04, 2011
this topic doesn't make sense.

Chinese men can import a wife from China if and when they want. They just happen to be more focused on their education/work. They marry after they are financially successful. Besides, from what I know, Chinese women care more about money than anything. so a successful Chinese man has no problem at all.

Just had a meeting with me family and have accepted to go on with the wedding. Although they all agreed I can do anything after the wedding if the need be, they however pointed out that it will be suicidal if I call off or postpone the wedding. My fiancee father is a clergy and has already announced to his congregation about the wedding. Calling off the wedding according to my family and friends would shame both families.

Although they've succeeded in talking me to doing the wedding, I however told everyone that I'm only doing the wedding for them and not for me. They all seem to be fine by it. Wedding cannot tie me down. After wedding, there's divorce. Money has already been spent and most arrangement made, do I care, I don't think so. I'm footing these bills.

My mum keeps crying every now and then saying she's scared for my life. She said someone somewhere would just do me harm if I call off the wedding.  Although I'm a Christian and do not believe in jazz, I do think some times one need to listen to advice and act later.

I'm in love with someone else but getting married in december with another woman. But after then, I'll get married to the person whom my heart goes with. God will do it. I'm I being forced into getting married, I don't know, but people are scaring me damn to much.
yours must be one of the worst wedding days ever. esp for the bride.

can you advice the women on here on how to avoid guys like you? ie what are the warning signs etc. be as specific as possible with bullet points maybe.

this thread is very silly.  
of course most guys prefer easy girls. that's the point of being easy.

the question is: as a girl, do you want to be be passed around like a football from one guy to the next? what does a woman have to gain from jumping from one monkey to another?

Jenifa, you've gone too far. Who told you I'm indebted to this lady, huh? As regarding your suggestion to borrow, no thanks. I'm doing great and don't need any.

My fiancee have lived with me for the past months and I'm tired of seeing her and her nagging. I've told her today to go to her parents house till the wedding day. I might change my mind if I miss her
well, the kind of cowardice you have is really unheard of and suggests to me that you might be indebted to her.

I read some of ur previous posts and you have created topics in the past to the same effect that you do not love your fiance. so really why be so cowardly to drag her into this mess?

I really suggest you postpone the wedding and settle the debts or whatever it is that's keeping you from letting her know that you are messing up her life.

how old is she?
you may be able to find new women but if she is past a certain age, it will become harder for her and she will not forgive you for wasting her yrs.

na wa o.

Paris10, r u for real? I mean for a guy who is searching nairaland for a stranger to give his fiance the break-up message. lol
is this even real?  cheesy


i'm 100% sure a girl cannot force you to propose or date her for 6 yrs without there being a story behind it.

She must have invested a lot in you and that's why she's not willing to let go. You also although you don't love her, most likely have taken advantage of her financially. assuming she is not pregnant, I'm guessing she financially supported you for those 6 yrs. because I see no other reason why you would feel forced to propose to her.

My advice to you is to POSTPONE the wedding. Save, borrow money or do whatever you can to repay her completely. and then let her go. that way you don't owe her anymore.

BusinessRe: A Brazilian Company Offers To Buy PHCN For $100 Billion by Jenifa1: 6:36am On Aug 26, 2011
Princek12:
to the opponents of the sale, could you propose some viable alternatives that will help solve our power problem?

as for me, I support privatization of PHCN, but I think that it should be split and sold to multiple investors (at least 3), with preference given to local investors.
exactly!!
and I will stress the part about local investors.

and some (govt) oversight as well like ekt-bear mentioned.

The $100 Billion investment. You think they would like to see it go to waste? Are you trolling?
of course it is not going to waste if they are getting PHCN in return!!  angry

the question is, what do they owe us that will make them not exploit us afterwards?
RomanceRe: Why Do Nigerian Women Like To Play Hard To Get? by Jenifa1: 6:33am On Aug 26, 2011
Princek12:
so do you mean playing hard to get will Nigerian women get married? how come they are all in churches at age 33 and up praying for a husband after playing hard to get?

bottom line is you have to date multiple people before you eventually find the right fit for you. dating is a trial and error situation.
have you ever seen a naija woman playing hard to get for a rich or successful man?
besides if you are taking about the UK or US most of those women are single at 33 are that way for a reason. If you look at their black american and carribean counterparts you will notice that most are unmarried as well. only difference is that they are more likely to be baby mamas while nigerian women are less likely to be baby mamas.

just speaking from my own perspective as a female and some of the guys I meet.
I personally WILL NOT play hard to get for a financially stable, disciplined and responsible guy who looks like a marriage material. but such guys are so rare.
most of the guys out there are irresponsible and just looking for a ride. and i'll really rather be a professionally successful single at 33 than be a baby mama for a useless fool.

trust me, if u are professionally ok, with a good head on your shoulders, you will have absolutely no problem with most naija women.  just that such guys are rare nowadays.
does that answer your question?

As long as they is constant light 24/7 Nationwide in Nigeria.  Residence of Nigeria can afford to pay whatever just to end the craziness of Generator Noise from neighbors and even Banks and Companies. After all, the UK gets majority of its Nation's Power from Russia, that's why the UK must not mess up with Russia, if they do, na one button Russia go press to shut the gas supply and UK is doomed. But the main issue is light dey 24/7 shikena!!
That's a good point and my fear.
If we mess up for any reason we are doomed.

I'm pretty sure Russia also has large stakes with the UK as well. esp with the collapse of soviet union.
so Russia also would also be wary of messing with UK.

In the case of Nigeria, I don't see any stake Brazil has with us.
besides, this won't be the first time we will invite foreign firms to take over our industries. things haven't been always successful in the past.

I think Nigeria should negotiate the deal so that even if Brazil wants to invest in it, we should have a large stake in it as well so that it is not 100% brazil owned.

Democracy is the govt of the people. You do what the people want, No?
I'm sure it's somewhere in the constitution that foreign affairs/policy is within the purview of only the fed. govt.
and also in the constitution that govt primary purpose is security and welfare.
ie. you elect your govt to do what's best for you.

you said it yourself that you prefer to be colonized anyway.

Monopoly is not the answer at all. Let's apply the learnings from telecom sector. Open up the market and let the competition begin. The key word is LIBERALIZATION!
it's not sensible to "open up the market" of utilities like electricity 
it is a natural monopoly in a way. and that is why most times it is best for govt to regulate it or at least protect it.

water supply and sewage systems are other examples.
land line communication system is another example. you will note that competition in telecom really began when the sector became wireless. otherwise, it would have remained a monopoly.

I bet ya, that the people in Nigeria, who are in perpetual darkness dont care if NEPA is being sold to Brazilians, Americans or drug dealers. All they want is light. And I dont think that is too much to ask for. If it will take a Brazilian to provide constant electricity, so be it.
It doesn't really matter what the people think. people will always think for their short term pockets.
but govt should be more concerned about national security rather than just some middle and upper class folks. govt main purpose is to protect national interest. that's what they are elected for.

even the US wouldn't sell it's energy to a foreign firm even if it was cost efficient. In fact, it would fight other countries over such matters.
as you have seen from ppl's post, PHCN not worth up to 5 billion. so why do you think brazil is willing to pay 100 billion to control our energy supply? obviously you are failing to see the larger picture.

would you also support privatization of water supply? to a foreign firm? and what happens when that country gets mad at us. we thirst to death?
anyway this is my last comment on this issue with you. I think I have made my point clear.
