Biggcowhorn: My name is Kalu from Imo state but I live with my parents in Lagos. I'm a 37 year old jambite. Of recent I've been having feelings for this Igbo girl I met while attending my jamb classes, she's very brilliant, she's a nerd and I also observed she's an introvert. I've open up to her to let her know my intentions of being in a relationship with her but she says I'm too old for her and she sees me as an uncle and elderly brother. I recently invited her to my home when my mummy Left for work but she refused coming. Nairalanders pls advise me by telling me on the best strategy I should use and how I should convince her to accept me as her boyfriend cos I'm dying for her. No insults please as I need only matured comments
Who do your life like this bro...... Na slow motion ya brain dey, I pray you find your healing soon B4 you got arrested for child abuse
officialmario: Good morning Nairalanders I want to use this medium to seek for your advice..
Me and my wife has been together since 2014, although we have not done marriage as we only did introduction, but we planned having our marriage this year, we had two kids, but I think right now I'm not comfortable living with my wife. I am not enjoying this relationship anymore, she keeps beating me whenever there is quarrel between us, she is fond of slapping me and giving me punches , at times she make use of wire and and broom to scatter my head.
The one that happened on Monday is really giving me much concern, she checked my phone and saw a friend I was chatting with and instead of her to ask me about the lady, the next thing she did was to slap me and she started beating me to the extent of having right hand dislocation..it's not as if she can beat me if I decided to fight back, I don't want to raise my hand on a woman, it's a curse and I don't want to do that, this is getting out of hand and I am not living comfortable at home again, we sleep on different bed, she doesn't allow me touch her again. She is even planning to get a room by ending of this month when she get her salary.. I told my sister about her behavior, the advice she gave me is that I should beat the hell out of her whenever she raises her hand to beat me. I have pleaded to my wife to let us continue the way we have been doing before but she wouldn't listen to me.
I am really confused and I don't know what to do right now.. I need your advice my great people of Nairaland.
You got to show her you're the man for her to know her place, ask for forgiveness first and makes sure to best her to reset her ego and now reasons with her ..... Women don't likes dull men likes you
Voice22: Today's Headlines: "I'm Tired, I Can't Wait To Leave Office" -Buhari
I'm Tired, I Can't Wait To Leave Office- Buhari
Working six or seven hours a day as president of Africa’s most populous nations is an insufferable job, says President Muhammadu Buhari, wishing he “will be less busy.”
Mr Buhari was born on December 17, 1942.
“The age is telling on me. Working now for six, seven to eight hours per day in the office is no joke. There are questions of (the) executive council; memos from as many states as possible to be considered virtually every week,” lamented the Nigerian president. “Really, it’s a lot of hard work.”
However, the 79-year-old added, “As I’ve said, I asked for it, and I cannot complain.”

Richdoh: I'm a young hard work guy who's planning to settle down someday. I have a girlfriend whom I have gone to see her family with my own family , as in , we have done our introduction , what was remaining was for us to fix a date for our wedding . But this girl started showing some nasty attitude . There was a day she came to spend weekend with me and I gave her some money to buy some food stuffs to cook, that day i received the greatest shocke of my life , my fiancee warmed me never to send her message like that again that she is not my slave. As if that was not enough. Another day she came to spend some days with me but when she got to my house I was not at home that day. She went to the bathroom to get some shower but unfortunately the there was no water running in the bathroom because we didn't had light for 2days so we couldn't pump water . Normally when there's no water like that we usually fetch from the next compound . Though I live in a room and parlour self contain with water running in my kitchen and bathroom . To cut the long story short, my fiancee refused to fetch water for herself to take her shower . She had to call me on phone to come home and fetch water for her to take her shower. When I eventually got home at late hour , I took the bucket went to fetch water for her to bath just for peace to rain . I later asked her why she had to call me to come and fetch water for her to bath knowing fully well that I was not around . She said in her house , she does not fetch water that her dad usually call Aboki's and buy water from them . She told me that she can't leave a suffering life of having to fetch water , she can never do it. Please nairalander is this a good sign or bad sign to watch out for .
Don't marryv her except if you want to be the wife of the house...... She is not home train

binarymachine: We are living in a society where everyone is just pursuing something. There is an adrenaline rush to get this and that; everyone is in a hurry to grasp as many things as he can lay his hands on and if you are not looking like you are also in a hurry, then it might seem like something is definitely wrong.
So this guy is in his third year in the University, his parents sends him cash from time to time and he is definitely okay with that. In fact, he has in mind to pursue a masters degree and also a doctorate so as to become the best in his field. Then one day, he gets a call from his friend that there is an alumni get together party the following weekend. He gets thrilled about having to go see his friends from kindergarten. He brings out his best outfit and then prepares to have a lot of fun.
Saturday evening finally arrives, he reaches the venue with an Uber ride. But when he gets to the location his friend had described to him, he is confused. There are about 10 cars parked outside. Not just any car, Mercedes-Benz, Audi and Toyota. Each of them the latest models. Still unsure about being in the right place, he reaches into his pocket and places a call to his friend. His friend confirms he is at the right place and then steps out to welcome him.
Inside, he meets his old classmates and friends. They get talking, and about three of them talk about what they own and the businesses they have; four have inherited their fathers companies. Some others had a thing or two they did which fetched them huge income. He listens intently, then silently leaves the group to avoid being asked any questions. He would not be able to tell them he finally got admission after two years of waiting and he is in his third year now. Neither will he be able to tell them that the money he has saved is for his Masters degree, he couldn’t afford the luxury they had now. His friends were definitely living the life. After his surmise, he begins to ask himself some questions like;
“hope I am not wasting my time going to school and having huge plans?”
“how can I achieve all of what my friends have?” Hold up! This is the story of some of us. The craze to get everything within the shortest possible time. This feeling stems from the “comparison factor”. When we stop looking at ourselves and how far we have come and then we decide to look outside, to look at others. Sometimes, it is as a result of having tried out a whole lot of things, giving it our best shot and putting in a whole lot of work, but it seems as if the results we need are not forthcoming. But we find that someone who is not giving the same amount of energy and time we are giving to the same thing, just seems to find it easy to get results.
I mean the person just comes today, does a little thing here and there and gets the outcome he wants. It is a normal thing to ask yourself what you are doing wrong. To ask yourself if your dreams and plans are valid. And to want to have a quick fix to every problem you are facing.
But can you be a little bit patient with yourself? Can you sit down and take stock of how far you have come? How much you have achieved, and the great plans you have for the future? Can you be grateful for the gifts of people, life and opportunities that have made you to be the person you are right now? Can you trust the fact that you are in a process and you will definitely get to where you are going to? A Chinese Proverb reads; “One moment of patience may ward off great disaster. One moment of impatience may ruin a whole life”.
This is very true, the people whose life you are comparing to your own and wanting to get whatever they have gotten and have what they have are walking a different path, so also are you. If you are not patient enough to look at your own journey and make the most out of it, you may end up being an unhappy and bitter person filled with regrets.
The best thing about being patient and waiting for something is that we add a whole lot of excellent moral values to ourselves. Like practicing gratitude for the progress we have made, learning happiness when things go our way and when they do not. Most importantly we become brave and brazen. Especially when it comes to facing life’s affairs. Don’t let the rush of grasping everything get to you. Focus on your journey and be a little bit patient. In time the things you need will come to you, and you will have the things you desire. Source: https://flipmemes.com/2021/08/30/a-little-patience-will-go-a-long-way/

Thanks for this pieces of advised, oppressors are really making many feels depressed
[quote author=purples25 post=99884115]I just stopped laughing.
Something I'm used to happened today. A guy that I had politely refused last year came to me this morning. He immediately told me he has a job now. Told me the full name of the company and everything else. Then he started asking me aggressively about where I have reached in life and all that.
I chatted normally with him, I told him I was happy for him. Later, he asked if he could call me at a certain time. When I told him he could, he started saying that it was not so before, that before, my anthem was that he cannot reach me for various excuses.
I laughed, because, I now understood the whole issue. He believed it was because of money that I didn't allow him access to me anyhow. I just told him that he shouldn't worry because my phone was bad. He continued to reply in a sour tone. The funny thing is that I have no business with his money, because I am sure that none will land in my palm...so why would i be tripping because he got a job?
Another guy I rejected politely acted normal at the time. But after years he came back, asking me with full spite about my marital status and my job. Lol. He told me how he has a company now. I knew that was true because I had seen evidence of it growing and info about it in public over the years. He insisted that we should be dating now. But it couldn't happen because i knew he was just bitter, and thought that i should fall now because he has made it.
Guys, its not all about the money. Some women don't use your money to survive. Some have parents and don't really care to be bound in chains because of indomie and egg, credit, or sharwama. There are more serious issues. E.g the relationship should be going somewhere. Sometimes its tribal or religious, maybe she knows her parents wont accept you. Why would a woman smell what she won't eat, just because of your feelings?
Guys, take a chill pill.[/q
Most of you ladies are always hypocrite and always have stupids excuses to cover your stupidity.... You just written this to ease your pains aunty
