he is just a liar, his family hung up the phone b'cos they know he has his papers now, therefore, they do not need to speak to you for anything. Starving yourself won't help, Nigerian men don't like skinny, vain women. He had issues with you before dint he? as regards your figure! see he needs a big 'booty' so leave him off. don't despair, go to your local health office, or a womans refuge, there are so many options out there. Better to get out of this now than later.

sara what are you on about? is he the only man on earth? dont you have your own family and your own friends??

Mad, where are you from Sara?

I live in Dublin, is there anything I can do to help you?

thank you, I have loads more recipes!! well my interpretation of them!

Naahh, my sister is law showed me a slightly different way

fish
stockfish
peppersoup seasonings
maggi
curry
fresh pepper
black pepper (the nigerian one)
little onion and garlic
crayfish

marinate the fish in all of the above for a few hours then do what you were going to do.

ha ha ha his wife is actually african american! sure there are men from everywhere on this thing!

They do not love foreign food, where did ya get that one from?

The first one I have decided to post is my own version 

rice n stew:

You can make this dish with any meats or fish of your choice
Nigerians prefer, cow leg, cow skin, local hen (which is a chicken aged over one year and is tougher and needs a bit more cooking) these are all available from your local african foodstore. However, you can use 'normal' beef, lamb, chicken etc.

so you will need:
One can of tomatoes
some few cloves garlice
one onion
five maggi cubes or knorr stock cubes
salt to taste
some curry power about three tablespoons
two to three large red bell peppers
three scotch bonnets pepper or else about five or six chillies
one teaspoon ground nutmeg
one table spoon thyme
one tablespoon basil
500 gm parboiled ie easy cook rice

washe meat and sesan it with cubes, curry and thyme. Place is refrigriator for at least one hour
take then out and boil them until tender
in a food processor
put all the other ingredients (expecpt the rice) in and blend them.  Add this mixture to the meats and cook it.
if it needs more water add the water SLOWLY. If it tastes sour and too tomatoey add a tiny little bit sugar.

Steep your rice in cold water for 15 mins before you boil it. Then boil it and add a bit of salt and butter to it when its done and whala! there is very simpple rice and stew.

remember you need to make is 'spicy'

Hi, I hope you guys don't mind but I have decided to start up a new thread on this.

I mean basic ones okay?

If I have anything wrong please correct me,

come on annoyed where are you?

Hey can I start with the list:

10 reasons why Annoyed prefers a naija wife:

I mean, KING what man is a FKIN KING in this day and age.

See wat we white women need to know, is how you actually define a KING, can you pls clarify this and what actions/behaviours/attributes on the wifes part can amount to this??

I dont mean on a daily basis, for eg a woman works the same hours as her husband, they both arrive home after dinner she offers him tea and he says yes, no whatever, but when it comes to naija man he will take his own tea and not offer wife any. This is not just me this happens with. I don't know sweetsweet, but all I know is that Calabar women are supposed to be the sweetest ladies in Nigeria so its going to be tough. If you go to the food section, you will see recipes, plenty of them.  If there is one in particular you need just give me a shout.

You can just begin with rice and stew I mean surely he doesn't expect idika ikong in the middle of some white mans village!

Then again, they use any excuse,

PS Ill start up a thread for you in the 'food' section

Im not giving them are bad name. Why don't they compromise much? its always the usual here, I don't see naija man go make tea for his wife! or do things that white men do! its always them who want to have their cake and eat it, they don't even realise! they know whats good for them and the end of the day, and white wives are not one of those things IMHO.

Now I'm not gonna rub it in anymore.

sweetsweet we will never make them happy, not even their own women who are angels with that patience of a saint can keep them happy, pls immediately go learn how to make idika ikong soup, pepper soup, rice n stew, egusi soup, okro soup etc etc and perform the most mind blowing sex acts. If you want to keep him happy pls start with the basics. At the end of the day, I could run a Nigerian restaraunt and even write books about religions, religions, cultures, tribes. Too bad,, I do not have to mentality of an Igbo lady and you do not have the mentality of a Calabar woman. God be with us cos someone always looses out on culture.  Don't be a doormat either thought mate, I don't tolerate pubs and nite clubs, why? cos I don't tolerate that shit and no woman should.

PS: Who told you that Calabar women can make their husbands very happy? I believe this is indeed the case, but, if it was your partner who said this to you, forget it.

Sounds like she is an irish lady, sure would it be better if she was stuffing her face with pounded yams everyday and was 50 stone you would still be ANNOYED!. You know annoyed, I can tell you that white european guys are way better than Nigerian men, they are not judgemental, they are relaxed, they help out at home etc.  This is a mean generalisation, yes a naija wife is better for a naija man and same for irish we are better off together too!

But hang on, in spite of all this, I have learned the true meaning of LOVE and how to be a good wife in accordance with YOUR culture. At the end of the day someone will always loose out on culture like I have. But IF you do love someone as much as you say you do you will discuss the matter and exhaust all avenues. However, despite my observations, you have said that you know you will hurt her at some point. Listen man, if you really love someone you wouldnt have concluded that you would hurt them at some point!!

Maybe she is insecure or something about her looks, that doesnt mean she is a bad person. Stop nit picking!!

Poor girl, maybe she feels like she doesnt look good enough! obviously you never compliment her!

I mean what is is she doesnt have that a Nigerian lady has? go on list them for me (I'm sure the list is endless)

On another note annoyed, your case is indeed the extreme to the usual picture here in Dublin, its usually an big fat ugly white woman with a Nigerian man. Now times are changing but that for the most part of it.

I don't see why you should have any problems I am also white. The child will pick up some of each language. African ladies are great wives! much better wives than white women.

I would love to learn igbo!! I have picked up a few words not much though! but i wouldnt know how to spell them!

ha ha Orkinla! its true in general though, how can a woman be romantice when no one was ever romantic with her in the first place? aint the man suppsed to make the forst move?

she doesnt look like she is even from Ivory coast, she looks ethiopian or south american!

There is someone i know here in Dublin. She had been trying for about four years and her husband used to call her names cos there was no son. finally, thank God she had a boy in the end!

I dont think women are paranoid for no reason now.

ohh right, oh I thought it was supposed to have some lumps in it?

Is there supposed to be little bitter taste from it?

I tasted that garri stuff as i bought it once it was the white one sort of lumpy and i have never tasted anything as bitter and smelly, yuck. I like all the other ones but really not that one.

Bcblazer, what do you mean by your statement I aint cute! I was referring to the 21 year old lady who annoyed is currently in touch with. he says he will be going to naija with his oyibo wife now, so wat gonna happen 21 gal when he does make his trip down?

What states in Nigeria is FGM still practised?

well let him marry you then and make it official. Don't just be his 'girlfriend' and don't settle for that.

hey annoyed, what are you going to tell the 21 year old??

@poster, no not really maybe a couple of times a year we would go clubbing TOGETHER only.

there is an arabic one called helwa but they are more like cakes, there is an indian one called halwa which look like wha tyour talking about cut but up small squares.  It could derive from either of the above.

Halwa can be made made with bits of almond, cardamon, sugar and milk. Ghee is also added into it and you can colour it with saffron or orange colouring.

eh i make sure that is not in public and its very, very seldom i have too much

Well do you think your Nigerian wife would be happy with you dancing around discos on the weekend?
I have seen them here in the vaults in Dublin walking in heavily pregnant looking for their husband and asking their husbands to kindly leave, and I don't blame them!
Eventually she will cop on.

Do you think Nigerian ladies would not be into handbags and glad rags?
Do you think they don't sit around in each others houses gossiping?
All women do!!!!!!

Good luck to you.

Well i am white and funny enough I was only thinking of that last night, see my father died young and my mother is now 67 and going blind in one eye. I would never dream of putting her into one. Some over them over here are great but I just couldnt to that. If I have to leave my husband temparorily and my job i would do that.

For me I like:
