We knew each other when I was 18 but started dating during my NYSC and got married right after.

Most teenage relationships don’t end in marriage so it’s most likely that people meet and get married more while in University or anytime after.

mariahAngel:
They should learn to practice abstinence or other form of intimacy within the ovulation period.
They won't die from not having sex within that period of time.

You just suggested another form of family planning/reduction in the rate of procreation which according to you is a sin...so abstaining for the purpose of preventing pregnancy is also a sin per your reasoning �‍♀️

1. Prays for me and with me. I’m not the prayer type of person but his midnight prayers gives me joy.

2. Supports my career and education. Has no issues with late nights at work or out of town engagements.

3. Gives me ANYTHING I ask for even jokingly. I’m not demanding or unreasonable. I’ve never asked for a house because I know he can’t afford to buy me one even if he wants to.

4. Aside being a good husband he is a perfect perfect father I sometimes envy my kid�. He is also a good son and brother to his sister.

5. His sacrifices. Don’t get me started on this. He is the typical Igbo anambra man that will give his wife his car and use public transport.

He is not perfect but I married right.

looks like the lyrics of songs in his new Album

Oh I remember year 2000 in katsina. I was a child, I didn’t see any dead body but the rank fear from the adults was infectious. I remember we were packed like sardines in a 911 Lorry that took four days on the road to get to onitsha after a near topple on day two in lokoja.

‘E go better e go better Na wetin keep Igbo man for Kano’

frozen70:
Charcoal cooking beats it all when it comes to cooking longer foods like beans, cow head and the rest

That's is if you are a large family and lives on the ground floor of your apartment

Or you could just use pressure pot/cooker�‍♀️

Had my first baby 8 months ago and I did not experience any of the above except episiotomy. It was very painful and itchy for the first four days. I remembered praying for the pains to go away. I woke up on the fifth day and had zero pain. Like without warning it just stopped.

That said, my next baby Will be via elective cs. Can’t go through that labour thing again.

I weep for Nigeria

OP,

You don't know the internal battles he is facing as an unemployed person/father/husband. Allow him unwind as he see fit. He is an adult. You said he is caring, so let him be please.

Probably when he get's the job it might reduce.

Use the alone time to relax for the next day hustle.

Be at peace.

Lotanna...remember the father...anambra Dikanna...be like father ...father here could be God or biological father

Op,from your point of view,you referring to being in love with a girl,dating her without sex....well the bible is not against such.....
but remember that there are appearances of sin.been in such a relationship without marriage in mind is a bit dangerous,you are putting yourself directly in the line of sexual temptation...by mere thought of sex or romance with her you have sinned...so why play with fire...
the easiest way to avoid sexual sin is to avoid companies that reminds you of such which includes the dating you referring to....
it's true that God doesn't force his will on us,but you can ask for his will ( which is usually the best) to be made manifest in your life

Wash with clean water after urinating
if you pee 12 times wash 12 times...it's the most effective method..
it's not enough to use toilet rolls after excreting,use water and soap,wash both the anus and the vagina...
follow this religiously and you won't have any trouble with your body

Handsomeemmy: Hey! Miss, please what is the name of your church in kano?

deeper life Christian bible fellowship...egbe road. Sabo gari kano
you welcome to join us

RoyPCain: it seems as if christianity is constructed to be between christians and christ while shutting God out of the union.

did Jesus suffer and what type of suffering? who did he suffer for and is there a reward coming to him for it and who gives him the reward and what type of specific reward and why the suffering?

who conducted the suffering on him? who demanded it?

if God is God of Jesus son of Mary, a prophet by his own lips and the lips of those who knew him, then any relationship that God is not the Apex and Commander of it and its process is a failed relationship.

you protest too much...and you know what they say about empty drums right?
leave your Allah to be the judge...learn from maclatunji a strong Muslim who would never be caught dead doing what you doing.....asking dumb questions

Come down to the north,where going to church alone puts your life at risk,yet many ain't bothered...we still fellowship regularly....
I don't see Christianity as a meal ticket but I strongly believe that since I seek the KINGDOM OF GOD fervently,EVERY OTHER THINGS I need are added unto me..
so when am in need I ASK,SEEK and KNOCK with faith and guess what,I RECEIVE,I FIND and the door always OPEN....that is the joy of a Christian

What will I not hear about heaven and hell ...now I will go to hell for rooting for Chelsea and manU and watching all their match religiously...will my brother also go to hell for listening to cool music all the time?....op,will you also go to hell for wasting too much time on nairaland?...please tell me coz I really don't want you,my brother or my humble self to go to hell

fijiano202: if Jesus is God and mary is the mother of God,my question is do you mean Jesus brothers and Sisters Are god and Goddess? cos its clearly stated in the bible that Jesus has brothers and Sisters,one of them is name Simon,try to confirm this

they were not of Mary's womb(google the circumstances surrounding the marriage between Joseph and Mary)
if you don't believe it,let me ask you,if you were the 2nd child of your mum,and on the death of your elder brother,he put his best friend in charge of your mum when you are still alive,will you allow it?
woman behold thy son,son behold thy mother ....hope it rings a bell

It's choice my dear...
personally,I'd love it on same day...
reason...gatherings'freak me out especially when strange faces are involved...so I'd rather face and be done with it once and for all

Siena: I'm really happy for the safe delivery, and for the couple. Science is amazing!

If this was in a Nigerian hospital, it would have most likely been a different outcome, and probably not a positive one.

na WA for you o

I really don't know how the church came about Mary's birthday.but we still celebrate it...i will ask this question in church...just to know
today is also my birthday

idnoble135: No! I'd instead tell him not to give in and to fight off the attraction/emotion which you rightly call "temptation". Rather than, give him false hope and then say "it does not matter". God is indeed a patient God!

you first have to understand that nobody can choose his sexual orientations...you need to cut gays some slack especially those trying their best to obey God...
you sir,is either married,having a girlfriend,or waiting till marriage...bottom line,you get to have sex and fulfill your desires as acceptable by God in marriage...
a gay person can't do that.he is not attracted to the opposite sex,neither are they permitted to indulge themselves ever.God hates such...so kind sir,can you imagine their pain?
if God had not said its a sin,would you have condemned it?
a gay seeking God suffers much and the least you can do is embrace and encourage them just as the pope is doing...

Hettymoore: I understand,he supports his pope.
And is okay with homosexuals so long as they don't act on it. So long as you are not true to ursef,so long as you don't have sex with your partner.
Or is there more?

number one...am a lady
number two...my post is for the homosexual man or woman who admits that it's wrong and wants to reconcile with God,not someone seeking to justify his or her actions...No

Definitely not the gods

idnoble135: ^
Are you in any way suggesting that all of the Catholic doctrines are in the bible?

let's tackle this as Christians...drop Catholic doctrines
you are a thief when you steal
you are straight when attracted to the opposite sex(not when you lay with the person)
you are homosexual when (due to no fault of yours)you are not attracted to the opposite sex...
if you are straight (which is a behavioral pattern) and fornicate...its a sin...but if you don't,you are free of sin
if you are gay(behavioral pattern) and lay with your fellow man,its a sin...if you don't in obedience to God,you are free of sin
hope you can relate this to what the pope said..... your sexual orientations doesn't matter(its natural and you can't choose it).but your thoughts and actions is what counts for salvation.if you seek to be good and obey God,you won't be fornicating or practicing anything against Him....believe in God gays because believe me He loves you so much so that every hair on your head is numbered.He doesn't discriminate but frowns and punish all evil practice

This piece is too funny...
I wouldn't say that if I were in your shoes ...
but Egyptians in this context means anything holding you back.could be an illness,an addiction or in some cases afflictions of the devil.it is such Egyptians you see today that you will see no more...not your fellow seatmate

Pope Benedict xvi did not cure the boys cancer...
Jesus Christ through the pope healed the boy...

Never knew Tyler Perry is a pastor...
he uses God to make viewers laugh their heads off in his madea series....e.g oh god of shederach meshak and Billygoat
@topic...i guess humility should be our watch word...
Jesus demonstrated that by going to John the Baptist for baptism although John acknowledged that he wasn't worthy but did it anyway

Donnapheey419: Girls devotes their time just to satisfy their men but what they get in return is nothing but their guyz cheating on them which is not fair.But if they find out that their girls is cheating on them,they give the girl quit notice....Guyz are just like snake that is covering itself with a banana leaf seaking 4 whom to insert its dangerous venom into...So girls,BEWARE!!!

op...modify the topic and the original post above.i don't know how to bolden the wrong words but I believe if you go through it,you will see them...
e.g..,guys likes cheating (wrong),girls devotes their time...etc

prettycentia: so you trying to say that if my conscious think kissing is nt a sin as long as is nt sex, is kk by u n ur religion

baby girl,this is quite tricky...
some Christians believe in the rule of the conscience...but my dear,we are to work out our salvation with fear and trembling...
giving your life to Christ doesn't stop the love you have for your guy.but you need to tread carefully here.you need to let him know your stands in this case.two can't work together cept they agree.the rational thing to do here is end the relationship coz your new believe will change a lot about you.and it will be difficult for him to adjust.remember you accepted Christ of your own free will,so do not try to force Christ down his throat.remember also that he is a great link to your former way of life.if my left hand will lead me away from God,I rather cut it off....
pray to God for guidance....
as for kissing,all I can say is avoid not just sins but also appearances of it...
lastly,being a born again doesn't mean you live in bondage,enjoy your freedom in Christ Jesus
