If na joke, stooopp that thing ! How could you say that, the only thing that Djimon has going for him is a good figure, brother's ugliness is no joke and he is height challenged to boot.
Kimora used to be an almost supermodel (I use the term loosely ). She's tall, great skin and pretty. Now if only she'd lose that weight. . .

So because they make Djimon look like a slave in most movies, you think he is ugly?

You must not have seen him in any of Kimora's fabulous TV shows.

She looks younger than the other medalists in my opinion . . but who cares anyway.

I paid for my wife thru grad school . . she is an investment banker. She lost her job for 7months after she had our child and I gave her full access to all my accounts and gave her 2 credits cards as well during this period. It was also during this period of global recession that I bought the house.

She got her old investment job back and decided she would be putting all her money into my account.

Why am I saying this? We have the same goal and my wife trusts my completely with making sound financial decisions. I dont smoke or drink or womanize or party like hell. The only thing I think of is to ensure there is enough money for my family to spend and God has been good.

I just pay the bills and my wife then goes to make sure we've not been overcharged for anything. She has complete freedom with our money but of course I have to check her every once in a while because we know how women are with shopping. She also asks me if she sees any major expense that she is not aware of. WE must save some money at the end of the month . . no matter how little.

If we both realise she is better at managing money, I would have no problems at all giving her the control - she is my wife and soul.

This all comes down to trust and understanding. You must have one goal and that ought to be the family.

Why are we always trying to compete when we should act as one?

Be careful who you marry. They can make or break you.

Like someone said earlier, if you marry someone with insecurity or low self-esteem, then you have yourself to blame.

abioila:
even if d person neva had d opportunity?but u can't u send d person to skul or sumthing?

Not worth it.

You send the person to school . . .the person starts making more money . . you are expecting returns on your investment but the person is now too busy to even have your time . . you get pissed, get a gun and kill the person.

well done Flintstone!

wait a minute, how did you find out about computers / Internet . .are they available in the stone age you are still stuck in??

I know. She is stumbling in love with him

It is either he does not want you enough to chase you . . or he knows how you feel about him and he's having fun with it . . or he sees what is good for him but not willing to go after it.

you decide if that's what you want in a man.

Omolola1:
OH, SHUT UP! you re a disappointment

another sign she is stumbling in love . . .

smile11s:
does she look 17?

No. She looks like she is trying to push out something from behind

Normal under the circumstance.

bodsibobo:
actually want to make reference to Deut 14: verses 23 and 26.

To my understanding, this means we can eat / use our tithe to buy whatever we like in the prescence of the Lord.

So why are we required to instead drop these tithes to the churches for their upkeep??

verses 27 - 29 also talks about the levites . .so that means there is a provision for our leaders.

Again, am I missing something?


Curtesy of Kokoye @ Nairaland

I have decided to say away from the argument of tithes . . . ever.

I give money to the church when I'm blessed and I want to (regularly) . . not because the pastor told me to - he is human and flesh like me. He is a prophet and so am I. He is annointed and so am I.

My Jesus said to be a good samaritan and that is what I have always tried to do. God will never neglect me if I am my brother's keeper and help those who are truly in need.


This is what I stand on and THE ONE that I serve and worship has never failed me.

Do whatever works for you . . and good luck.

You need to cut down on the money you are giving are and let her know you are saving for both your future. Her reaction (for the next couple of days) will let you know if you should go on with the relationship. You need to confirm if she is simply there for the ride . . or for love.

If you cannot stand your ground now when it comes to your finances, then there is trouble brewing for the future.

trimandtrendy:
My sister pray about it. there is absolutely nothing Baba GOd cannot do. the heart of Kings are in his hands

Pray to God to let someone talk to you . . or fall in love with you 

is that not manipulation . . or cheating? 

That's where you people miss it . .praying when you should be slobbing

He might be scared (or cautious) because of the way you have been rejecting other guys.

If you feel that way about him . . why dont you tell him?

what's the worst that could happen - you live happily together forever or you know how he truly feels and you are free in your mind to move on.

Let me share an incident with yall that I had to put on my ride and die chick cape on one day,

My husband and I were going on our date, we all dressed to the nine looking good and smelling good.  We thought we were the CHIIIIIT, anyway, we went to this place that had an event going on and we got us a table and ordered beverages.

A dude and his chick came walking pass the table and knocked against the table which spilled our drink so we shouted out hey, you knocked our drinks over, this couple proceed to turn around and copped an attitude.

Now, I was a good girl Yes I was, but when that trick ROLLED HER EYE and said we shouldn't put the drinks on the table. I told her if she watch where her wide loaded azz where going then it wouldn't be knocked over.

So the girl thought she could fight or whatever she thought she were doing, she proceeded to walk toward me like she was gon do something so I grabbed my glass where my drink was in and said I don't think you want to go there with me.

Meanwhile, my husband and this dude sharing words with each other and my husband was like you can perform a kind gesture and pay for our drinks the guy told my husband to go handle his ho, my husband responded and said I see you don't handle yours.  I taught my baby the WHIP A NUKKA technique, he still learning! 

I jumped in and said can you spell ho you ILLITERATE LOOKING, SOUNDING, AND EYES LOOKING LIKE FOREST WHITAKER (he is famous for having a dead eye for the ones who like who is that?!!) and I motioned for the manager to come handle the situation because they were going to pay for our drinks regardless how they feel.  So the situation were handled and the drinks were paid for after I said my few little WHIP A NUKKA RANTS,

So there ya have it, I was riding for my husband!  Fuggg with him, ya fugged with me!

Here we go,

Queeneve was the same person who wanted me crucified (and saying I wasnt a real man) for calling some very rude lady a 'b.itch'. So I guess it is ok you for to call someone names . . real lady?

But I will go ahead and do the right thing here and not take revenge on you:

You did the right thing by setting the lady straight and standing up for your man.

ouch!

'Thy rod and thy staff, they follow me.'

D-sense:
She's completely frustrated nd weirdo .needs a DOC.

She always gets your attention too!

Inked_Nerd:

At time yes. No one ever wants to admit it, but its true. There are elements of misogyny within Nigeria [and many other African] culures.

Nwannem nwoke, thank you

Decades ago, when it was the same way in England and the South of the U.S . . would you say women were hated in the west back then as well?

I wouldnt use the word 'HATE' . . just some conservative culture (originated by the west of course) that some are still holding on to . .maybe for selfish reasons.

Inked_Nerd:

Misogyny is aversion to or hatred of women. To get a better idea of what it is, take a li=ook at this link>>> tp://www.wordiq.com/definition/Misogyny

Do you really believe women are hated in Nigeria?

tpiah:
'
can you count the number of ladies who run down naija men so we can figure out the percentage.

and are you referring to threads opened in response to the ones started to denigrate naija women (which not surprisingly you fail to notice or mention).

Sorry but I am not going into that with you.

My point is that you cannot say someone is not good based solely on what they say about a tribe. It could be as a result of bad experiences.

Inked_Nerd:
[font=times][size=11pt]
Due to a lot of sexist and misogynistic beliefs towards women in Nigeria, the opness of female sexuality in Nigeria tends to be frowned upon.

Na you speak big grammar so na you go explain am

misogynis . . . kini?

Inked_Nerd:

Personally, I think you need to be honest with 'em and tell 'em what you want. I had a guy who was straight forward with me about what he wanted and I was cool with it. Keep in mind though, each girl is different.

Straightforward ke? na dirty slap be dat o

Are you sure you are Nigerian . . or ever lived in Naija?  because most naija babes do not have this level of confidence. Blame it on our silly culture of pretence.

I'm trippin for you oooooooooooooo

spikedcylinder:
@ poster, maybe she doesn't want to marry you? [/color]

True dat.

I remember this was a common line back then from the ladies if they want to chase you away. . . since most guys usually run at the sound of the word 'marriage' and / or 'pregnant'

^^^

most of the ladies on Nairaland run down Naija men on this forum but that does not necessarily mean they are not good.

- with some stroke of luck.

You must also be good, have positive expectations and without a low self-esteem.

CHIMCO:
Pls this forum is not meant for exchanging insults. . .

Really . . since when

You dey craze

^^^ I wonder why always the need to scream.

ONE LAME NAIJA  JUDGE WILL COPY SIMON JUST U WATCH!!!

You mean one Nigerian judge will be sincere  . . .what is wrong with that

There is nothing wrong with copying a good thing.

The U.S copied it from England but the US version is bigger so people may think it was originated from here. Canada and a host of others also have their version now and noone is complaining. Nigeria decides to do one now and tears are being shed.

what is wrong with my people . . low self-esteem I guess!!
