₦airaland Forum

Someone (parent or pastor) obviously told her something.

Ladies dont usually behave like that after planning for a wedding.

What else can I say? Suck it up and move on.

I know it is tough but you have to - for your own good and future.

Please do not take it out on other women - your wife is out there waiting for you.

^^^
I said that based on your posts all over nairaland, not just the ones on this thread. This is my opinion and I stand to be corrected.

I know most people here like to pit Nigeria against other countries but honestly, there is no need for all these rivalries. We are all black and Africans, most of all.

I am not happy about all the negative stuff goin on in Nigeria but I will not make fun of the poeple there just because I am out in the west - my prayer is for every black African country to be like they used to back in the days when the western countries were begging for us to come visit.

Having said that, please be more encouraging. A strong Nigeria or Ghana will translate to a strong black race.

Most of us in foreign countries are just looking for our daily bread - I have a business in Nigeria with employees. So I am countributing in my own very little way even though I do not live in there at this time. And I believe there are other out there like me.

The fact that a few Nigerians / Ghanians are fraudulent does not mean everyone else is.

Good luck and God bless.

^^^ Now see what this one is saying again.

We are talking of a Ghanian who always laughs at every negative thing about Nigeria.

You come here talking about people finding their daily bread - what has that got to do with my point?

I guess you have issues with Nigerians trying to earn a living (instead of rotting in Nigeria in the name of patriotism that even the leaders do not care about) . . and you just had to get it out, regardless of what the thread is about.

My cousin has two masters' degrees from Nigerian universities, she's tried doing legit business but got duped by relatives, she has a job but her salary cannot pay her rent. But I guess you will still blame her if she decides to try her luck in a foreign land. Leaving your country is no big deal - other nationalities do it too.

Keep it up.

^^^ I know that.

But I will not behave like him by running down his country.

@ otumfour

How come the only posts you agree with are those that Shed Nigeria in a bad light?

I know you are obviously Ghanian but must you take joy in knowing that things are not right in a fellow African nation?

Whether you know it or not, this is a Nigerian forum, so you ought to know that there is some good coming from Nigeria.

If you got no positive suggestion, you may leave the 'Nigerian' forum instead of looking all over for negative things to make you happy.

^^^ good suggestion.

How old is he?

^^^ She might not have known. That is why she should try to find out what is it.

It is not everything we do in good faith that goes down well with everyone else.

faving:
yeah i tried talking to him and all he could say is that he was angry with me and cut the phone on me.

Try to have a face-to-face discussion. Then you decide if you want to quit or continue.

She became my wife 

@ post.

Why could Michael not use it? Because he died . . .the same way Pastor Chris (and everyone else) will pass on someday.

The title is disrepectful and cheap.

^^^ the guy no need the eyes. He was able to walk away and write a letter 

snowdrops:
Good luck. Shebi you know where old peoples home dey.

Thank you.

This answer should've closed the thread.

You are simply boring.

@ Poster.

Be careful. She is still his girl and can easily turn everything on you.

Back in U.I, I decided to go clubbing on a friday night - saw my friend waiting for his babe outside Queen's hall - he said I should go on without him . .he'll come along with his babe alter.

I got to the club and the babe was there on some white man's laps - our eyes locked. I got back to the hostel and met my guy in bed - he'd been told his girl was not feeling too good so they could not go out that night! I kept mute.

The next day, the same guy came to confront me - this same girl had told him I once tried to rape her when she turned down my advances.

Whatever you do, be very careful.

Its high time women wake up and not let themselves be deceived by men

What has this got to do with the thread?

lanre88:
, are you kidding me so this is how ladies over there are desperate. You see when i was in this same place in UK (peck ham) 2008 being my first time in the UK though ladies don't look at guys maybe due to pride or something. I actually didnt get to hook up with any lady till i left for 9ja thinking ladies over there are beyond what i could move closer to. I must confess there are beautiful ladies over there with fresh skin and are just the type of guys i would like to go out with but they just wont give me face let alone for me to say Hi. Maybe when i get back to the Uk am gonna be forward a bit since someone in peckham can have this in her diary. I can't wait to renew my visa and get back there,

Idiot.

He fell for the tales by moonlight.

And can you guys not realise this is fiction and nothing else? stop trying to prove him wrong!

Mobo, I dey enjoy ur stories ojare . . keep 'em coming.

knotty:
as a fresh graduate, you should have no too much problems writing a CV.

CVs become nightmares when you have to write them 20years post University.

na time you go know how much of your life you have wasted or you have saved.

Thanks for your help.

N wah o. And we tell them not to collect bribe.

I'm sure most of the money they collect is handed over to their superiors. . . and their superior's superior all the way to goodluck.

btw, that is not bread. It is bugan.

@kokoye,
the issue of tithing on NL is like a sore-thumb on a baby. However, if I misunderstood you, I apologise.
Trying to get answers from NL on biblical issues is not adviceable as the thread is open to believers and unbelievers alike.
Going through previous topics on tithe and others on chritianity generally is enough to prove that.
However, you are satisfied with Confetti's response so its ok.
Cheers.

In this case I did not come here to get an answer from NL - I created the thread to bring awareness to the Deuteronomy passage. But all the same, it is good to observe peoples' reviews and comments - it gives you an idea of how diverse and broad our thinking is.

The fact that people give suggestions (however smart of silly they seem) does not mean I will agree with all of them. It is left to me to make my own deductions.

If I think I need a medical attention, I go to google and do my research from multiple sources - so i have an idea of what could be wrong and how it should be handled. Armed with such information, my doctor cannot give me hogwash (you'd be surprised at home many people the doctors have killed). A doctor once prescribed some medication for me - this stuff was killing my sexual drive!!

A lot of people gave gotten jobs, houses, contracts and dates on Nairaland. And yet some people still condemn bringing your issues to this forum 

This is one of the benefits of the Internet and we should be able to use it to the fullest. I dont know where you are but at least we can rub minds, share experiences and become better for it.

It is all good my brother, thanks and have a blessed weekend.

@kokoye/OP,
Really? You can go ahead and call me what you like. At least your true colors will start unfolding.
If you are truly a cheerful giver, why make the comments you made in previous pages and/or bring such question to this kind of forum? Since you pay 'more than tithes' and contribute to the church both home and abroad why then are you having issues with 10% of earnings?
Your obvious seeking for advice from nairaland shows who you intend to take instruction from then.
Let the Holy Spirit give you understanding through the word.
Anyway, keep up the good work of giving.
And like I said in my previous post, you have gotten your answer(s).
Cheers.

and I wonder how you know my true colors.

Again in simeple english:

I saw something in the bible which I'd not heard from most pastors or anyone for that matter (even confetti said she's not seen it before I brought it up on here). I created this thread to bring awareness to it so we could have a decent conversation about it - so it is not my fault people are arguing over it. Is that not what bible studies in church are for . .so what is the problem if I brought it up here??

As for having an issue with a mere 10%, I do not as I do much more than that. I just believe in the truth and nothing but the truth. My Jesus said I should be a good samaritan when I can and also be a cheerful giver at it.

I am not going to pay 10% just to please you or any other mere mortal - It must mean something to me.

I will not do something just because my pastor says to do it - I must have a bible backing and also a personal conviction to do it.

God gave me his words, common sense, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit so I will use all these things to my benefit. I am also a prophet myself.

Even though I have the Holy Spirit in me, does that mean I cannot bring up a topic (that most people are turly not aware of) to the prescence of my fellow men just because it may ruffle a few feathers??

Why do you go to bible study or to church (if you do) . .since you have the holy spirit in you according to your comment?


You also said I have gotten my answers, so did you not notice I have kept quiet all along  . .until you decided to accuse me wrongly??

I remember getting stuck on the 3rd mainland bridge in the yr 2000 - a truck fell on its side.

I got out of the car . . looked for pebbles and started throwing them into the water below. Got bored goin that so I walked back to the cars behind me and started chatting the drivers up.  Other drivers got out of their cars and looked for ways to entertain themselves.

Alwaystrue:
Going through most of these threads on tithe, I[b] have come to realise these threads are started by people who do not tithe or plan to but they set up the threads as bait for 'tithers' and 'anti-tithers' to knock themselves out [/b] on what is right or wrong.
Its a real shame and will advise those who do not know what the brain behind these threads are hoping to achieve not to bother answering these questions.
Let the 'anti-tithers' (as coined from the threads) knock themselves out, they will tend to get bored when they see no one contradicting them and as such the thread dies a natural death.
Peace out!

I do not want to call you silly. But please read my posts over and see my point of creating this thread - maybe you might get it. It is in simple english.

If you want to know, I do more than pay tithe - I contribute generously to the church (both home and abroad!)  . . but most of all, I am a cheerful giver and also always willing to help out my fellow men as Jesus adviced. I do not need to go into details since you still may not  get it.

*siddon look*
