[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]Shey your society where the men are, on avg, 5'4? abeg.

And this aspect has already been discussed, no society chastises women for being "short". They're, however, worshipped

Men on the other hand are SUPPOSED to be atleast 5'9. [/quote][color=#000030]Sorry, but mama never taught me to worship "short engines". . . [/color]

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]I'm 5'7.

But still taller than the avg Nigerian men. Abi is 5'7 not taller than 5'4 (avg height of Nigerian men)


[/quote][color=#000030] Madam, i'm sorry to announce to you that you are still what? You are still short! 5'7 is short for a woman in my society. . .

So you are 5'7 and you are making noise?

And here i was, thinking of coming to Ekiti to look for wife. . . [/color]

Lots of cash, a good job and amazingly crazy intimate skills are oda things a woman can use to get a man locked down?
Tot dat combination is meant 4 men.

[color=#000030] ^^^
Follow that advice at your own peril. . . Pr[i]o[/i]stitutes also got crazy sex skills. Does that win them the heart of any man? Use your what? Your HEAD! [/color]

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]I was 5'4 in 2009 dear. And I was still taller than the average Nigerian man.[/quote]

[color=#000030] Falls from okada. . . So how many inches did you add in 3 years? Did you bloom late or what?
[/color]

[color=#000030] I pity you and whoever it is that gave you such advice. . . Try it on a man that cooks better than you and you'll know that there is a difference between six, and half a dozen! [/color]

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]I'll reply you if you use a calmer mode. trust me [/quote][color=#000030] I'm calm now. . . trust me. [/color]

pendo89: If nigerian men are short what about the rest of Africa? Must be in the genes.
All the nigerian men I have seen are like towering trees.

[color=#000030] Pls tell this 5.4 million naira lady. . . [/color]

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]Test tesy, calm down and come back to reply me in a calmer mode. I'll be here.[/quote][color=#000030] . . .and she RAN! [/color]

[color=#000030]Never ever ever think that you know more than your parents when it comes to love and relationships. . . Never ever. They've known about steph for a long time, and are probably aware that you dated two other guys while simultaneously dating steph, right? That is enough to show any parent how fickle minded you are. Be truthful to yourself. You no longer have any feelings for steph, so why tha bloody hell are you still stringing him along? Keeping him as an option, right? Break up with steph properly, and then be truthful to your parents about your relationship status with steph, whom they already know.
Your parents know you better than you know yourself. It's not about money here. It's true that alot of people equate money to happiness, but then, no parent wants their child to suffer. . .times are fccking hard! I think that's the angle they are more interested in now currently. But you alone can change that. . . No one from on here will come talk to your parents for you. Tell them why you cannot be with steph anymore, and why you want to be with collins. Even if they may want financial stability for you, most important to them is your happiness. Make no mistake about that. Currently, they think money makes you happy. This is not the time for your to withdraw into your shell and start crying, you have to brave up, since this may turn out to be the most important decision you ever take in your life. Be brave and respectful when talking and explaining to them. Parents like to see a well composed child hold her grounds and respectfully outlining her ideas beliefs and wants. If they don't want to hear anything now, fine. Let them be, and then you COME BACK harder and more subtle when they are in a better mood. If you are closer to your dad, meet him and soften his face first. If you are closer to mum, do the same. When you've won one of them over, the other will be a piece of cake.
What i'll hate is you making up stories about steph or collins. I believe you are old enough to know what you want. Be straight forward about it and maintain your stand. . . In the end, the realization will hit them that you have your life to live, and that how you set your bed is how you'll lay on it. But it all begins with your manner of approach. If you approach them like a lopsided discombobulated baby, don't expect them to give you audience like an adult. . . . [/color]

[color=#000030] And so what? [/color]

[color=#000030] When will people learn to refrain from smoking before starting threads?

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]What other societies? in which society do you see men chasing after tall women where shortness is a majority?
And majority because, on average, women are shorter than men (and short in general). Average height for a woman is 5'5, and I've yet to read about a society where that is looked down upon.[/quote][color=#000030] If shortness is a majority in your society, whose fault is it? And why are you complaining over the majority? [/color]

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]The people of the society. Their actions and preferences.[/quote][color=#000030] What makes them right, in respects to the actions and preferences of other societies? [/color]

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]LOL I'm even taller.
Even so, we already discussed feminine height on page 2. It's socially acceptable for women to be below 5'8.[/quote][color=#000030] Socially acceptable? Who dictates for society what is acceptable or not? [/color]

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]You've not seen me in real life I'm 6'6 [/quote][color=#000030] Are u related to basket mouth? Have you considered stand up comedy as profession? If you make 5'6 sef we go kill cow. . .[/color]

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]That's already been discussed. So 5'8 is now "tall"? Lawd have mercy!!



Have you seen me in real life to think I'm short? lol

And if you're trying to so there are not many tall nice men out there, then according to your equations, there aint many short nice ones too. Just saying. If the girl wants a tall guy, then i respect her choice.[/quote][color=#000030] Anyway, at a point in time in life, it's no longer about what you want, but about what you really need. . .

And yes, i've seen you. And again, how short is too short? [/color]

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]There are nice tall guys out there. I've met a lot of them too. The kurubente are usually the mean angry stingy ones.

I'm not short. No need to balance the equation; how about we make them go "bye bye) (extinction, no reproducing).[/quote][color=#000030] You? Not short? Abegi, i don feel like laffing here. i have a headache. Don't forcefully induce laughter to my system pls. . . If you don't balance the equation, extinction can never be attained. I never said there are no nice tall guys out there. . . but how many of them are nice? And what is the probability that they aren't hooked already?[/color]

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]Ok.

@Killz
Age has nothing to do with it nau. At 50, why can't she still say she wants a tall man? Why should tall girls date short guys?[/quote][color=#000030] Which would you really prefer? A short guy who treats you nice or a tall guy who is the epitome of an arse?


And btw, there should be a balance of equations dammit! Imagine someone as short as tellwisdom marrying someone as short as ileke idi. . . That's catastrophic to the ministry na. [/color]

[color=#000030] You say? [/color]

sosoluv: im a somewhat tall girl and i always have short guys trying to ask me out, its a bit annoying but i always wonder, cant they just get someone more appropriate for u

[color=#000030] I sincerely hope you can ask this when you are 30. . . [/color]

angelhair: It's 8k and the software with listening ability (ie listen to voice calls is 10k for a limited time only)

[color=#000030] Ok. You know what. Wherever you are right now, fall asleep. I'm coming in your dreams to pay for the software. . .

WTF. Relationship is not by force. If i cannot trust my girlfriend, i have no business being in a relationship. Imagine a situation where a boy and a girl dating each other are on Nairaland, without the other knowing. And they both come across this nonsense of a thread and software. And then, they both buy it secretly, without the knowledge of the other and they muguciously install it on each other's phones. . . What does that make them? it makes them what? FOOOOOLS!!!
Trust is a vital ingredient to the success of any relationship. . . It is not a business relationship dammit! [/color]

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]You're lucky that Mynd_44 is selectively blind to posts like this. This is a serious threat [/quote][color=#000030] The more you talk, the more i make plans on how to discombobulate and synchronize your "idi" to to errm to reci. . . I've forgotten what i wanted to say! [/color]

[color=#000030] A girl may be everything you dream of, but then she's lazy. If you truly love her, encourage her. Encouragement works best for lazy ones. . . [/color]

[quote author=*Ileke-IdI]Kilo se e? Behave, kii n to ran Mynd_44 si e. He's 6'2 and heavily built, and he's ready to defend me. Just letting you know [/quote][color=#000030] Look at this Lilliputian. . . Ma kan da omi ata si oju e ni si! [/color]

[color=#000030] Love is a verb, an action word. Loving someone should come from your heart. The lips should relay what your heart is saying and not what your head wants you to say. When you love someone, you have taken into consideration the flaws and shortcomings of that individual and you are ready to manage them, or encourage him/her to be a better person. Love does not take into account the errors of the other. If you meet a lady today, you like her at first, and then love starts welling in your heart, but don't be in a rush to proclaim it to her. You love her and that's a secret to you. Watch out for signs that shows that you really love her. What are your actions? What are her own actions? Do you force someone to love you? Do you have to entice them with material possessions, before they love you? If your actions + their actions bear witness and testify that you truly love her, you can go ahead and let him/her know. revealing your well kept secret. Falling in love at first sight is very possible, but proclaiming love at first sight is nothing but foolishness. . .
Love transcends havin[i]g[/i] sex. Love transcends monetary gains. Loving someone as a result of sexu[i]a[/i]l satisfaction or money derived from them can be very misleading. Loving a person wholeheartedly encompasses knowing that at any point in time, that physical pleasure derived from sex or the material gain may no longer be there. An accident could occur. A loss of wealth could occur. In the case of such eventualities, and the person is bedridden physically and symbolically, would the love still be there? If you can honestly ask yourself, and answer that simple, yet thought provoking question, then you are ready to love, and ready to proclaim it.
It is just a four letter word, but it is heavier than all words in the dictionary put together. Care should be taken when using the word "love".

Never ever ever use the word "love" on anyone if you don't mean it. . . Never! Let those that have ears, hear!!![/color]

[color=#000030] How much? [/color]

[color=#000030] The lord is good. . . [/color]

onila: well quite a few

[color=#000030] And almost all of them are envious of you? Are you really a good person yourself? [/color]

[color=#000030] Hmm. . . [/color]
