➜I think I need to share this story so that we can all learn. I have a female friend, her husband died and she has kids. She told me that her husband was dating different women when he was alive and even got kids outside. So she said she's now alone, taking care of the kids after the death of the husband. Presently she's dating a married man, I asked why she's doing that since she also detest such thing when her husband was alive. She said the man gives her 100k monthly and pays her kids school fees. So she doesn't have to care about any other thing. Now, can you see that women will not want their husbands to cheat but they will cheat with another woman's husband if they have the chance.
Most Nigerian men would not tolerate their wives cheating on them, but that doesn't stop them from cheating, sometimes openly, on their wives either. So what exactly is the purpose of this severely biased tale of yours? What is there to gain with this absurd generalization of yours? undecided

Avoid anxiety and worry at all costs. Those stresses are counterintuitive. Focus on your goals while bearing in mind that they do not make you who you are. Rather, they can help improve upon your general quality of life, were attainable, or help push you towards the direction that would better serve you were not. No need to panic over them. undecided

It is quite OK if your plans don't work out since you have the freedom to make new ones or tweak the ones you once had. There is no need to get anxious about that since pretty much all of us end up having to do that like uncountable number of times throughout our lives. undecided

➜It’s not pride, Sir/Ma. Everyone makes it seem like, at my age and with the fact that I’m a graduate, I’ll be a failure for going back.
➜ All my fellow corps members have big plans, and I’m just there.
But everyone who does that is wrong! No one is a failure because they moved back home at 25, or 30, or 45, or even 50. No, failures are those who refuse to realize that to move forward, they need to take a step or more backwards to realign themselves, or even begin again or change directions. undecided

2. If big plans are all that is needed to succeed in life, then over 170 million Nigerians today wouldn't be mired in abject poverty. You need more than big plans to succeed in Nigeria and in life. undecided

I heard that too back in 1998 when I was in college and looking for my first job. And here I am today telling you that it is not your fault, and so you should not let it deter you from applying for jobs anyway or pushing forward with your goals. undecided

3. You'd better swallow your pride and move back home with your parents if you need to. Even here in the United States, we all do the same when things get too hard and we need a chance to start over or something.

➜ Good evening, everyone. I will be 24 years old by July, and I will finish my NYSC by August. I am a graduate of Biochemistry with a 2:1. I served as an administrative assistant at CRUTECH. I have worked as a freelance blog post writer and scriptwriter. I also play around with WordPress and write research papers.
Currently, the phone I'm using is on credit, and I have no savings. I can do data analysis, and I hope to apply for a graduate trainee program in a bank. My plan is to work for a year while I process my scholarship for a master’s degree abroad. However, right now, I am feeling overwhelmed and confused. I need advice—am I on the right path?
The simple answer is yes. You are headed in the right direction towards your current goal. undecided

You have a plan, and in the absence of any other, stick to it. undecided

➜Close your eyes, raise your right hand, but it on your head! Repeat after, Who do me like this🙄🙄
A single mom is like every woman, they can barely love a man when they are single, [b]once they become a mom, the man is just a tool, something that has to provide or it becomes useless.[/b]
➜ If you want to test, just tell her you don't have money when she asked, see how fast she moves on.
Wait a second... isn't a woman— every woman— equally just a tool to many of the very same men? undecided

2. Hold up! Let's revisit reality here, shall we? undecided

The traditional marriage system in Nigeria— the societal norm— requires the man in the relationship to be a provider during and throughout the entire duration of the relationship/marriage in return for the woman's submission to him. This system mandates that the man regularly bring to the table his capacity as a provider for him to continue to enjoy submission from the woman in the relationship. By catering to the financial needs of his woman and family, the man is rewarded with his ego's desire — her submission and loyalty. This system of relationship insists that as long as the man is a provider, the man offers his submission. This equally implies that once that man is no longer able to act as a provider, the woman is not obligated to continue offering him her submission. undecided

But here you are insinuating, against the very societal norm, that a woman should continue to submit to the man even when he has lost his ability as the provider for his family? Why? Where does this idea of yours come from? Why is the woman, against the very contract that society holds to at the basic level, to live as a slave to the man in this case? What is your reason for thinking this way?🙄🙄🙄

She is a divorced woman because she was abandoned by her husband during their marriage. He told you the husband ran off, abandoning his child— is the child a bad person too?—, and last I checked, abandonment is considered a criminal offense in Nigeria. 🙄🙄🙄

Nonsense! 🙄🙄🙄🙄

The person you described is not a single mother but a divorced of which there are so many out there too. Second, if her ex-husband, father of her child, blocked her, what you are insinuating is that she is not getting support from him as far as his own child is concerned, meaning he is some sort of deadbeat dad. 🙄🙄🙄🙄

➜Its nothing rude or abusive this time but....Hypothetically if a 70 year Nigerian man and 70 year old Nigerian woman wanted to get married. Their parents are dead and their aunts and uncles are dead, they have no cousins alive, so they are the elders of their families. Who does the introduction or knocking or whatever the tribes do? Who does the bride price talks? Who does what? Or do they just get married because they are old age pensioners and its not they are going to have kids or anything and all they want is companionship and to live together. That question is bugging the crap out of me because 2 old people close to me actually want to marry each other and I dont want to be rude and ask them directly
They should simply head to the local courts and be done with it. grin

You are responsible for your choice of who you date. If you choose to date a single mother, then it is on you that you made that decision for yourself, not the other way around. So, grow up and start making more mature decisions for your life so you don't have to ask these ridiculous questions of anyone. 🙄🙄🙄

To cook rice for you and buy you beer while her children are hungry. if you have sex with one, expect billings- It is what comes with the terrority. if you do not want date one, leave them alone.

2. If you were observing norms, you would not be regurgitating the same farce that people did many ignorant, maybe even bothering of delusional, ideas people threw about many hundreds/thousands of years ago, as though it were the norm of today. undecided

➜Have told you the fact. Even that woman currently with you is dating you for a reason.
➜ Financial benefit or other things she found attractive in you. We men also love Beautiful ladies that is attractive which is lust.
➜ The women we trurly love are our Mum and Sisters same for women.
Every human being, whether male or female, dates for a reason. Be it financial benefit, an egotistical need, or whatever, every couple's relationship is entered into for selfish reasons. If you haven't already figured this basic fact out, then again, I suggest you stay away from relationships altogether. undecided

2. There is absolutely nothing wrong with entering a relationship for selfish reasons, be they financial, superficial, egotistical, etc. They are all valid reasons to engage in a relationship with others. undecided

➜ So when you're soft and also not rich, women won't find you attractive, therefore no love for you grin
1. Please stop feeding yourself these nonsensical tales in these numerous attempts to evade responsibility for your own choices. The problem isn't with the women but with those of you who walk around life expecting all women to be the same when the same you would never expect that all men are the same. That is one of the biggest reasons why you choose women who are obviously bad for you, only so you can then turn around and complain that it is women to blame when the roosters come home to roost. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

2. How old are you, since I am not sure where you get that these women define love in the manner that you do? It almost seems more like you believe that because you think a thing the it is what others think.

➜Even a girk that initially loves you may later find you boring or weak if you're soft.
➜ What we call love most times is just lust and other attractive features both gender found in each other
1. It has nothing to do with your being soft but merely the fact that the feelings she once had have slowly faded over time. The exact same happens when a boy who initially liked her, after a while, no longer finds her appealing. And has absolutely nothing to do with the person that is no longer liked, but the person whose emotions are no longer as they were. undecided

2. What you are trying to describe are the brain-chemical induced perceptions that people confuse with love. Yes, brain-chemical-induced feelings fade over time, and, naturally, since the brain can only withstand that much mental assault from those chemicals for only a short while. undecided

2. Nonsense! She is not into you, AND she does not owe you any respect at all.

Don't you realize how absurd that thinking is? undecided

Bullsheet, given that the true worth of any idea is determined, not by those who forgo it out of fear or anxiety, but by those who embrace it and maybe even actually test it out for themselves. 🙄🙄

⚉ Couples can't stay in love for the entirety of their lives
⚉ That only those in an artificially enforced arrangement— the stay in love part— remain in marriage after even the appealing period — the 5-year average, according to you — is over.

Given these claims of yours, what then does it matter whether one spends 1 minute or 3 years courting? Also, you think there is worth in marriage since you insist on this long courting period even though you already declared it of no real worth. Why not simply admit your commitment phobia instead of jumping around with these contradictory claims? 🙄🙄🙄

2. Unmarried individuals equally have kids like fowl all over the place. Are you now going to argue entirely against procreation? 🙄🙄🙄

2. When it comes to raising kids, the more mature individuals involved in the process, the better. undecided

3. Your girlfriend has the right to break up with you since you are both not headed in the right direction. You are being unfairly cruel to her by suggesting she remain your girlfriend when you are not at all compatible — she wants marriage, and you don't.
