Okoroemekah:Your may not value your own life does not mean others can't do so. ![]() This is a picture of a 70-year-old man who decided to get his act and health together in his old age. If he can do it, why can't you? 2. Problems with drive, ambition, and mental power can be easily resolved in most situations by eating a balanced diet regularly and adding exercise to one's daily routine. Walking for up to an hour at least 4 times a week will do the trick and help you destress, too. You should try it as it works wonders to help resolve even some problems with mental illness/depression. ![]()

SIRTee15:The sad of all of this is that a non-balanced diet is also one of the reasons why those stuck in poverty have a hard time leaving it. ![]()

Olawrites:Stop telling lies! Marriage does not favor women. We know this for a fact now. ![]() And the vast majority of men out there, married to women, did not have a gun put to their heads to force them into marriage. They not only wanted it but believed it was in their best interest to get married. Even the average poor man in Nigeria believes in his poverty that marriage will solve all of his problems if he can only get himself the cheapest woman out there who would submit to him in a love struggle. Turns out for most women, this is, in fact, a life sentence in misery and suffering, for their children as well. ![]() |
Tailorcaesar:. The system, which brainwashes women from childhood into believing their worth can only be defined by their proximity to a man, already ensures that people of your kind will find you a prey, no matter how depraved your intentions. It is sad indeed! ![]() |
Ellioto076:Have you ever noticed how your Christian gods are always changing their minds up and down? ![]() |
Thomas1186:1. So, you don't like this woman because you seem to see a lot of red flags. And you sent her away. OK! 2. Why did you take the woman whom you obviously consider a red flag back? Are you alright? Oh, ok. You sent her away again! Alright! 🥱🥱 3. You finally sent the woman away, and now you want to pin all your life issues on her? Are you OK? Seems that you are not ready to move on from pinning your private delusions on the woman. I suggest you begin working through to find and eliminate the issues you are experiencing where they really exist; stop fishing for more reasons to pin blame on the woman you are no longer married to(assuming you have formally divorced her at this point).🥱🥱 4. It seems to me that you are merely obsessed with blaming all your woes and misery on this family at this point. Get a clean divorce from this woman and her family and work on moving on with your life and your business already! 🥱🥱🥱 |
Hhh4444:No mind dem! No reorientation needed. People simply need to widely publicize the end of many Nigerians who depend on their children. Shey dem talk say na person wey no get child go get lonely end. Showing that even those who have so many children end up with the same lonely end is a better way to get those coming in the reorientation needed. This problem is cultural, and the only way to beat it is to turn the lie on its head with facts. That way, those who come after them will immediately begin to get their heads in the right place. ![]() |
Kaczynski:A recent comment on tiktok by A Nigerian therapists claims that indeed about 90% of Nigerians carry around with them unresolved trauma from at least their childhood.
|
Hhh4444:Children we dey struggle to keep themselves alive go get time for old papa who failed to save up for his own old age? Abegi! Most of those children worry instead that those old men are living past their usefulness. 🥱🥱🥱 |
KnowledgePower7:Well, nudity is not now, or has it ever been, the problem of life and living in Nigeria? I pointed out the fact that nudity has existed from the time of your ancestors to get you to begin reasoning in the right direction. Our nudity back then was not considered a problem in society, and we still have no reason to consider it a problem today, since it is not considered a criminal offence. 🥱🥱 The high levels of crime, both at the grassroots and national levels, coupled with a culture of general disrespect for the law and the lives of the citizens, have always been the only problems. ![]() 2. To this day, over 90% of the country still depend on fetching water from unhygienic water sources. So, what in the world are you on about? 🥱🥱 3. Yes, keep deflecting... that is typical! ![]() |
KnowledgePower7:Your ancestors walked around literally nude and depravity and lynchings. That was literally the culture for the longest --- before the white man showed up. So, let's get things straight,abeg! 🥱🥱🥱 2. Kids still get no real discipline, the same as those before them --- even your grandfathers, and fathers are all indisciplined and corrupt entities to date, so don't even pretend they are better in any way. However, the brainwashing culture of old, which hides its evils behind words like discipline, continues, but fortunately, kids now have the Internet to know what is real from all the bullsheet of old. 🥱🥱 |
budaatum:I, formerly traumatized, have, over the years, sought help and healing from my childhood traumas, and no longer have parents (my parents have had to adjust themselves and learn to accord the family the respect deserved) who would speak to me in the same manner that your boss's parents talk to him. That equally means I will not stand for jackshit from any other so-called elders out there. ![]() Hope isn't lost on those who wish to do away with the brainwashing. They simply need to want to redeem themselves from all of their childhood trauma, cloaked in tradition. ![]() |
ChizzyBuna:That's because the respect system thrives on the ability of parents to traumatize their children. All that so-called discipline that you gain in childhood in Nigerian homes is usually through the use of abuse. And all that trauma is what causes children to remain subdued even into adulthood by their parents and others in the community who may have inflicted similar abuse on them during their formative years. What you have in Nigeria is not respect or discipline but trauma-enforced cowering. ![]() |
Cromagnon:. That you think the world as it is needs yet another poverty-ridden lineage speaks volumes. ![]() |
lecowas:Spousal abandonment, particularly by the men who reason the load too heavy for them to bear, is what is more common, even by age 40. ![]() Also, no sane women will and should sit back and let a man slide after promising her a better life in marriage, particularly if she had to forgo building her own life and financial independence for it. ![]() |
Mrkc:There is nothing wrong with you being 40— we all grow up, not down. And being single is not a curse but a blessing— you fare better when you are alone and pushing for financial independence. So, your only problem seems to be that you don't have a job, and you are sort of depressed about it. Why not create a thread about needing a job, listing the location and your skills? ![]() |
mhmsadyq:1. Financial security does not and cannot even guarantee you or me a long life. So why would you think it should be able to guarantee you longevity in marriage? Na magic? ![]() 2. Yes, even in life, it can change. But that knowledge and experience one gains while pushing for and living in financial independence remains with one. ![]() Do you know one of the major reasons why it is harder for those who were born and raised in poverty to rise above poverty? It is the general lack of access to information and know-how(connections and decision-making skills to handle risks included) necessary for fulfilling themselves. This is something children born into financially secure situations mostly have access to more than children who were born into poverty. ![]() People who can claw themselves out of poverty —gain financial independence before marriage —obtain this information and know-how, which they are then able to pass on to their children, even if they are not able to maintain that security until their children are all fully grown, for other reasons like life and circumstances. ![]() |
babajero:It is better to clock 80 with money in your account and you being able to live a life of less suffering with that money— having friends in your bracket, and your healthcare needs taken care of with your money— than to be 80, sick and miserable with all your kids struggling every day to eke out a living and your wife stressing you that there is no food to eat. 🥱🥱🥱 |
Labeebhabiby:Of course not! 🥱🥱🥱 Sickness and medical emergencies no dey happen to poor people or their wives. Na so that pregnant women wey her husband no fit pay hospital leave the mother and unborn child to die like fowl some months alone. Poor people are literally very wicked! 🥱🥱🥱 |
mhmsadyq:Financial security is not about longevity of marriage. Rather, it is about ensuring that marriage is an upgrade for both the individuals in the marriage and the children they produce. If you and your wife are not at least able to achieve some of your individual(outside of the marriage) dreams in the marriage, that marriage cannot and should not be regarded as a successful marriage, no matter how long it lasted. ![]() If you enter marriage in poverty, you are guaranteed not only to remain poor, but also to have generations of your children also in poverty. However, financial security before marriage not only ensures you and your spouse the benefits of marriage— these benefits are not automatic— but also helps you better create an environment where your children have a better chance of escaping poverty, even if it happens to you, their parent, much later on, than if you were always in poverty from the get-go. ![]() Financial insecurity is a major source of stress in all marriages. So, going into marriage with this stress already hanging over your head is an assurance of more troubles to come, for you and your children to come. ![]() |
irumole1975:. Please ensure to begin working on your male hubris before this 2025 runs out! ![]()

uuzba:A man not ready to provide a woman with a life better than she had before marriage does not deserve marriage to her. And any man who thinks his woman should come in to live as he used to is a man who literally hates women in general. ![]() And any man who thinks his children do not deserve a life far better than the one he was given by his own parents and the kids around him while growing up is a man who also hates his children. ![]() It is OK for you not to love yourself. But for you to inflict the same suffering that is your life on others is a clear sign of wickedness! ![]() |
Tailorcaesar:You shouldn't be dreaming of a car, but you should be dreaming of adding another human being to the equation? You people literally hate women and children since you consider them cheaper to get than a car. ![]() |
Tailorcaesar:. Stop lying! Misery loves company is the true definition of many of you who come on here to boast of your obviously stagnant lives as though the way others should strive for. 🥱🥱🥱 You know very well that a man on 40k can barely save anything, and the gods forbid such a man falls sick or has a medical problem....his life might as well be close to the end. Yet you dangle it as the life that a sane individual should not only strive for but take on more mouths to feed? Wicked! 🥱🥱🥱 |
Lexusgs430:Traditional marriage is instead defined as a master/slave contract...that is how that so-called union is defined. 🥱🥱🥱 |
BodyCount:Exactly! 🤔 |
22o62021:Again, poor people are very wicked, no be small. 🤔🤔🤔 |
ROK123:🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 |
RollinTNDA:Well duh! Thankfully, this generation are much less traumatized than the generations before them, which is why they can better relate like humans with people of even older generations, unlike past generations that immediately switched into some gods vs slaves mode when older individuals were involved— due to abuse inflicted on them under the guise of instilling discipline in them. 🤔 🤔 2. Why else would you want to hang around and chat with them? No be so they treat you like one of their own? Or are one of dem old men out there looking for kids to worship them since they failed to get their peers to do the same? ![]() |
Ten06:A grown man dating a teenager is already a man who is inadequate among his peers needing to find validation among kids without much experience. That is not a wise person to begin with. That child is much mature since she still has her mother, a supposed adult in her life to help her navigate her relationship with someone much older than her. 🥱🥱🥱 |
Munashak:That would have been just as bad. OP is a middle aged man dating a child. Is he any wiser than that kid who at least knows to keep her mother in her life still? ![]() |
