Romance / Re: How To Successfully Win A Feminist Heart. Good Advice Needed Please by JohnDuke101: 10:26pm On Apr 16, 2019
norris123:
Hi everyone, there’s this sweet girl I met in my place of work, mine is directly opposite her own place of work and her father owns the business.
It all started last year after she finished her NYSC, I got attracted to her though I have been crushing on her any time she comes back from school then but wasn’t ready to tell her not until this year I asked for her number which she gave to me, we started talking on phone and she would come to greet me when she comes to work so I asked her out one Sunday and she came we had some conversation and I told her I like her and would love to date her but she said it won’t be able to work since she can’t stay for long here( she’s planning for masters at another state). I didn’t give up on because I already made up my mind she’s mine so I started following her like before and I asked her out for the second which she came and we had a wonderful time though no signs were there so I continued to follow her, to cut the story short she accepted to date me in an usual way while we were standing on road.
The problem now is she is not like other regular Nigeria lady, many things don’t trip her and I was very much concerned about that because we were not flowing the way I wanted, one day we were discussing and she told me she has been trying to know if our relationship will work but it seems she’s not getting any emotional, she told me she’s feminist though I have been thinking about that too I told her I will try and change d way I do things and she should just calm down. There has been an improvement though I NEED AN ADVICE ON HOW I CAN WIN HER HEART FULLY.
She will relocate for her masters soon and I won’t like to lose her, she’s very dear to me.
Advice needed please

Do you know her definition of a feminist? Many people who claim to be feminist don't even understand what it means.
Education / Re: Can I Graduate With First Class With My Current CGPA(4.24) by JohnDuke101: 12:51am On Apr 15, 2019
remiproxy:
Hello fellow nairalanders. Am a final year student with cgpa of 4.24. Now I need to ask this, with this cgpa of mine, can I graduate with a first class(4.5 at least). What are my chances? I really need this first class badly. Is it possible?

Do the calculation. How many percentage is your final year GPA worth? Do the best you can. Your success in life does not lie solely on your grades in school.

Romance / Re: Chris Oyakhilome’s Ex Wife, Anita, Remarries, Changes Maiden Name by JohnDuke101: 10:27pm On Apr 12, 2019
Greennotes:
The estranged wife of the founder of Christ Embassy Church, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome – Anita, seems to have moved on with her life following her break up with her husband as there are strong indications that she has remarried.

Anita sparked up marriage rumours recently after she introduced ‘Schafer’ to her maiden name.

She authored her latest article ‘A Simple Prayer’ with the name Anita Ebhodaghe Schafer, on her online Christian portal at www.pastoranita.org.

DAILY POST stumbled on the article where it was confirmed she had remarried, as one of the approved comments said, “Congratulations Pastor Anita for your new name.”

Two other comments – “Congratulations Pastor Anita for your new name,” “It was such a beautiful ceremony,” also confirmed that the mother of two has tied the nuptial nuts.

It would be recalled that Anita was last year, involved in a messy break up with her husband, Chris, after she claimed he was involved in illicit affairs with female members of the church.
She said she tolerated abuse for so long and subsequently, the ministry pulled down her profile from the church website, a development that showed all was not well with the family.

She had confirmed she was no longer a part of, or involved in, Christ Embassy, also known as, Believers LoveWorld INC.

Anita, however, officially filed for divorce at Central Family Court, High Holborn, London, UK, citing her husband’s “unreasonable behaviour” and inappropriate relationships with members of staff, an intonation of “adultery” as her reason.

DoTheNeedful:
My Observations

1. The woman is lazy and she is a liar. She claims to be a graduate of York University yet her English is very watery. They should deport
her;she is a disgrace.

2. The White guy who interviewed her is a terrible racist. He couldn't hide his hatred from Africans.


3. It's not only Africans that beg. I was shocked when I saw a White lady with two children begging for alms in front of a Walmart store
somewhere in the US. Up till that day, I never knew a White could beg to eat in a country like America.


I feel ashamed of this lazy and greedy woman though. I wish like tearing her better slap. undecided


It is a shame! The guy is not really white because he has a dark skin too. He's not originally Canadian from his accent. Maybe he stayed in Europe or England. He doesn't have an original English accent either.

Romance / Re: GUYS: It's Pointless Dating A Girl Below 25 by JohnDuke101: 6:21am On Sep 16, 2018
bignoisemaker:
I read not long ago, a thread of a guy in school, complaining that his young girlfriend was too close to male friends. Guys beware! Dating a young girl is like taming a cheetah. Their chances of staying in a relationship and being loyal is slim.

Sorry to say, girls don't really know what they want and stand for it at age 18-24. For them, it's more able exploring and being open to their options. So, guys, save your time, emotion and finance for some one older

I agree with this. There may be few individual exceptions though. Whenever my male buddies here who are 30+ tell me they are interested in girls that fall into this group in my city, I advise them to forget about it because the girls are not ready for marriage yet. IMO, they don't know how to manage themselves yet. Their willpower have not been exercised.

The guys disagreed with me and went ahead trying different girls. Guess what? These guys have tried a number of these girls and told me they now agree with my opinion.

Romance / Re: Am I Wrong? by JohnDuke101: 6:41am On Sep 12, 2018
gloria34:
Met a guy April this year, we seem to have a lot in common and I really like this guy. we started dating and things have been going fine until last week. I travelled to Lagos in June (work related), in July, he went to port for NYSC camp (now at his ppa there). communication has been fine and all seem normal until he used a girl's picture (a corp member) as his d.p. if it had been his status on what's app, I would have considered it a birthday wish but it's on his d.p and there was no congratulation or birthday message to it. I waited for two days and he didn't remove the pix, I confronted him about it. he told me its non of my business, he can use anybody's pix 4 his d.p and I have no right to question him since he has never done same to me.
I got angry, we quarrelled and didn't talk 4 two days. I got fed up, apologized and he also did. we resolved it and he took down d pix but maintained his stand that I should not question him about his d.p.
though, we are good now, I feel kind of scared. I can't seem to trust him like I did few weeks back, we spoke last yesterday which is not normal (we talk and chat everyday). I feel reluctant to call him, I really want things to work out for us but I feel I am taking d wrong step

I don't know the manner you "confronted" him which made him tell you it is none of your business. Positioning might be the issue here. I think he has a right to use anybody's picture as dp. When he does, you need to find out who the person is.

Once in a while I use my brother or female cousin's pictures as dp. I do this continually for weeks sometimes.

after he died, I was busy being a pillar of support for everyone else while we were navigating our way out of a tricky financial situation.

About 5 years later after I got a decent job and my younger brother had moved to a new country and mum had overcome her health issues,....then I started to grieve....it was really traumatic for me and I had no one to explain it too.

Thanks for sharing!

MariaLavina:
Probably it took you twenty years to realize how much he meant. You must be passing through some things of recent that triggered memories of him.


I don't really know much about these things, so i will stay to learn cry

Thanks for your reply. I always had memories of him since the unfortunate event happened. I knew how much he meant when my siblings and I had to sort things out ourselves. You need a father to pull many strings in Nigeria. We have weathered many storms individually and collectively. By God's grace, I can afford anything I need. I have achieved everything I would have achieved if he was alive. I am at the point of "starting" life and thinking of what it means for someone ten years older than my present age to pass on without living life to the fullest.
Family / Has Anyone Experienced Delayed Grief? by JohnDuke101: 11:50pm On Aug 03, 2018
Greeting All,

Has anyone experienced delayed grief? Please share how you overcame it.

My father passed on over twenty years ago. However, recently I grieve more intensely about his death than ever before. I see great potentials and dreams that were never achieved. I see the fragility and frailty of life.

Thanks.

Some families are different bro.
As much as im trying to understand ur view, u also have to honour their wishes.

2019 tho, that's like a year and some months from now, if u guys are determined to wait, it's possible, or better still try to make it possible to see them next year though. U just need someone understanding sha, hopefully her parents are not also pressuring her to marry sharply.

Like i stated, some families don't mind even if u don't visit, but not all families are the same.

If u can still convince them sha, it'll be cool, if not, just try to see the possibility of what i wrote shaa.



Wish u all the very best.

Thank you so much buddy. Different families with different way. She sent me a message this morning that she is sorry about it that her parents would not want to speak with someone they have not seen who is interested in their daughter that I should wait till anytime it is convenient for me she can also be prepared financially etc.
