He's using you as a rebound and you're all there cosying up.

Get ready to get heartbroken because this mistake is too big.

This is a tertiary, professorial level of butt licking

It's you who's trying to impress. There are ladies who date with no financial exchange.Some ladies even spend on their broke boyfriends or empty their mother's provision store for him.

It pays to lay all cards on the table from the start. Don't give room for anything you won't accept.

Also, improve yourself. When you see a beautiful lady looking smart, fit, well dressed, with good diction and a budding career, she became desirable because she took time and effort to improve herself. You should too and see if your story won't change.

You guys should have outgrown this thing by now honestly. Over ten years and your viewing tastes haven't changed?

It's not a Gaboon viper but a common snake within Nigeria. Different people have uploaded this snake specie on nairaland but I can't remember the specific name.

It is venomous yes.

You guys don't know how difficult it is to stay awake in a meeting where you're not saying anything and simply sitting down.

I've had a couple of those and even when I try to keep myself awake by drinking coffee and writing notes, my lines go haywire and eyes glaze over.

The only help is to stand or take a walk which he can't do in this instance. Poor man.

Yam and beans can sustain

Wrong. That combo sinks faster than stones in your stomach. You would be in teh toilet in the next 5 hours and your stomach totally empty

I've been there once. Beautiful place. It's a shame that the Nigerian Public administration factor would inevitably run it down.

I guess they should start thinking of divesting all the shares to a private entity to keep it running.

alkines:
Thank you for the this…

I want learn majorly for speaking. The rest will come much later. Not necessarily for exam

Speaking is one of the most advanced forms of learning a language. You would have crossed the benchmarks of reading and writing before you attain speaking and then listening. I think the fastest route for speaking is by immersion and this entails frequent exchange with other listeners and speakers who can correct you.

Its best you sign up for a standard french program after which you visit a francophone country. Thankfully, a lot of African countires are francophone and we are bordered on all corners by francophone countries.

Abeg. No be only peregrine.
It's a kestrel.

You have to love these raptors. Look at how long the tail feathers are. It's also quite streamlined making it look sharp and precise.

All these hide and seek games with price is just so the buyer doesn't get a transparent way of knowing the true value of the car. Isolate buyers and give them your price when they call. No wahala.

Someone else has posted this same car on the platform and put the price. Hopefully we would get to see more transparent adverts someday.

And you say Japa is overrated. Those who have foreign passports are not concerned with all these o.

You have to wait one year for a three months visa

There are different things here.

First you are using sex as a weapon which men like me hate with passion. Maybe him as well.

On the other hand, you feel cheated because he's getting what he wants and you're not.

Admittedly, it's hard to have no sex in a long term relationship among non virgins or non -celibates. It's even harder to stop when you've started.

Yes, he wants it. He's only proving tough with you and he's not enjoying the treatment .I can tell you that.

To even the field, you need to guage his trajectory. How do you see your relationship? Is he serious and honest with you? If you have doubts, then perhaps stop giving him altogether and put the relationship on pause until you're certain you guys are on the same page.

If you're confident about his intentions, then you need to ask him straight. Women need to add the pressure too because young men aren't usually ready to ponder on marital topics.

In addition, men in committed relationships do not want to be put in an honest yes or no position. Ask him straight what his intentions are and he has to give a straight answer. If he turns you left and right, save yourself the stress and move on.

Which one of the legs was paralyzed? First, second or third?

There are levels to this ish.

While some old men sat in adoration, others received a handshake (while bowing), some got a hug and another got a sit down conversation.

One even calls him by his first name "Mike, how are you"

Towma:
OP you sef,
STOP MUMUING YOURSELF!

If everything you wrote is true, then sit her down and tell her your concerns, let her understand how much of a burden it is for you to foot ALL THE BILLS.
Unless you are telling lies and you dont actually foot all the bills because I dont understand this type of inconsiderate behaviour she is displaying.

If after having a nice and civil discussion with her she still refuses to help with finances, then STOP HELPING HER WITH HOUSE WORK AND BE SELFISH AS WELL, IF SHE ASKS FOR ASSISTANCE THEN TELL HER SHE CANNOT FORCE YOU TO HELP OUT WITH HOUSE WORK.

It's not by housework, he is burning cash.

Adaumunocha:
So why do you think she should change now? Kindly look for side hustles to add

Unbelievable!

Liazz:
Am I being unreasonable being mad at my wife?
We relocated abroad 3 years ago but she isn't helping to settle any of the bills.
We both are gainfully employed though I earn much than she does. Our monthly expenditure is about £2000 and she doesn't care to help in any way. I foot all bills making me struggle to save while she keeps all she earns to herself. We also had a loan of over 10 thousand pounds to settle when we relocated, she didn't help with a dime till I paid all bits by bits which took me almost 2 years.
Despite this, I still help with house chores like taking care of our kids, home cleaning and even washing dishes though she does all the cooking.
I've expressed my displeasure several times but she keeps insisting I can't force her to financially assist, it's my job as I'm the husband. She seems convinced she isn't doing any wrong and no sign of remorse whatsoever.
I financed our relocation 100% without her contributing a dime.
This is causing a strain in the marriage and I am thinking if I am unreasonable in my demand, am I?
Your comments are highly welcome.

Cheif, you're not being unreasonable. This is not naija, bills are plenty. You have to expressly state that she contributes or start planning your exit. I hope you have some emergency funds/assets stashed back in Nigeria before the bailiff comes knocking on your door.

Where is his bullet riddled body? We need hard cold evidence.

Gaining admission is the easiest part. Enrolling is the main deal.

Now you know.

kingamaa:
Science is evidence-based and not beer parlor talk. Science is not based on "I think or I've seen" but verifiable evidence based on research and hard facts.

As if scientific research has no limitations. Follow Google and ignore on-the-ground information (aka beer parlour gist). You're on your own.

kingamaa:
She should provide empirical evidence that can be referenced

No be by word of mouth

Data from a research published in The Lancet shows Benue has the highest prevalence with (5.7%), Rivers (5.2%), Akwa Ibom (3.5%), Edo (3.4%), and Taraba (3.0%) and this is supported by data from different source.

Dey there: That's for only those who get tested. Simple logic shows that illicit sex with a partner you can't vouch for exposes you to the danger of literally sleeping with maybe 50 people. What are the odds one of them doesn't have it. Slim.

Yes, there are ARVs but at this rate when so many people start lookng for the meds, you would be at the mercy of the government for your life. Go and see how PLWHA people are queueing in hospitals because their lives depend on it. Its medication for life and you can't afford to skip the dose for a single day no matter where or what you are doing. If the virus doesn't kill them, hypertension will.

An elder who is really close to me had to undergo surgery recently for an unrelated illness so they ran multiple tests on him and yes, he was positive. I saw the results live and I almost fainted.

Lets be careful. The level of damage of this thing would soon show in a few years from now.

A couple and it's usually about a dirty girl, low class lady, clingy lady, fraudster-ess or just not using protection when I was supposed to.

Thank goodness I never suffered any harmful consequences from these actions.

These guys don't even give a shoot about the populace. The only thing on their minds is how to extend this horrendous tenure, giving it so much priority like elections are next week.

I figure what happens is they take the car for detailing (thorough cleaning) after which the cleaners wrap the upholstery as an added service.

What is annoying however are those who drive these cars around with the polythene still on. Some other put white stickers on the door handles and fenders defacing the car further.

Omoapena:
20 trips in 30mins, y'all can really dream o. I believe that 20trips is within 50metres distance for it to be completed under 30mins and is that how people frequently demand for their service in market?

Let's be real sha.
Trips made in 30 minutes can fetch about #1000. Let's say go&come each is #100 so that's like #9k max for about 4 hours work.

It's impossible to work full 8 hrs of the day, every day of the week so it's still way less than half of #20k actually.

This Op's mission is DOA.

jmichael259:
That same Wheelbarrow wey dey reign now for internet will give you that amount or double everyday. Just go to ariaria Aba, Tetlow road Owerri etc to confirm for yourself. Yes, They need to work hard but not necessarily overworked. That amount can be made within the morning or evening with just one container offload. Normally it's around 3-5 guys offloading one trailer in a few hours.

I have to agree with you because 20 trips at #1k for 30 minutes is not far fetched but I still have my doubts because I'm sure they would be paying taxes. They may also be renting the wheelbarrows but who knows. The Op may have just found his calling 😄
