Culture Shocks.

You get to see things like this at work. They expect you to respect yourself and pay for anything you pick up. I see this and shake my head cos I know it's not possible back in naija.
Hahahahahaha

RomanceRe: She Gave Me Her Facebook Password Voluntarily, Why? by mctowel01: 9:30pm On Oct 14, 2017
babtaima:
I didn't ask for her Facebook password.. we just started dating.. I'm not insecure but I've heard many things about her before we started dating (that she has a lot of orbiters (guys hitting on her 247)).

and saw her flirt messages with her Ex, nothing out of the norm.
Mine also did the same recently... but after that followed a confession of how she slept with my friend.

Seriously, you all need to wake up because it seems most of you haven't. The rest of the modern world has woken up ages ago.

The days of the man being the 'hunter-gatherer' and the woman being the 'breeder' have long gone. It's no longer customary in the modern world for the man to be the workaholic whilst all the woman does is to open her legs to him at night. They both have to contribute, not equally, but comparatively based on their income. As for the mundane chores the OP highlighted in her post, all those chores are automated in the modern world anyway. It seems you are looking at this issue from a Nigerian perspective of using hand labour to perform those chores, it's not done that way in developed countries, and who does them isn't gender-specific either. I don't think a man requires a woman to put on a washing machine or a rice cooker or a deep-fryer or a dish washer or order a home delivery of groceries etc.

So, using chores as an excuse not to make a comparative contribution IS a moot point. Try again.
Most intelligent response. A lot has changed in the modern world. Now you just tuck your clothes into the machine, and its saving you time. A lot of manual tasks in naija are now automated. What does the woman do then?

She's guilty. My girlfriend usually tells me this till the day I learnt that she had a boyfriend in school and also got pregnant for a married man which she aborted. She's just having this guilty conscience knowing that deep down, she will loose you once you get to know of her ways
From personal experience, this is so on point. OP.. don't disregard this advice

I was chatting with my Gf and was shocked when she told me those words, I started feeling guilty and emotional cos of the fact I've not been loyal to her, I've not also been giving her the attention she deserves...

Oblivious of the fact that gurls can be funny and not be trusted, I stopped holding them in high esteem and have learnt not to give any my whole heart, she noticed it, and for her to say she is afraid of losing me made me have a rethink of my stance with women. I had allowed what people say and also some scenario to becloud my sense of judgement and therefore hurting innocent hearts. Despite the fact that she doesn't demand anything from me cos she knows I'm not buoyant enough, she still loves me.

To the guys, not all girls are hoes and gold diggers like we often generalize.

Cc: Lalasticlala
This guy you never ja atalllll... Haba... Draw your ear very well and listen. She thinking that way keeps her loyal and in check. Use your head to keep flowing through... never show too much, unless you are sure it won't back fire. What she is doing is reverse psychology where she feels helpless. Don't go down to that level, otherwise you ll see the true nature of her. Its human nature. Be wisebro. My girlfriend even says way more than that and cries on the phone. But you must be wise

@ jayooh
You don't need extensive documentation when you are not claiming work experience. Most times, offer letters in company letter head format does just fine

Phlunter01:
Please all,

I have some clarifications I need as i am preparing to lodge my visa application;

1. My name on my birth certificate shows only my surname and 1 given name e.g Jackson, Rose while my name on all other documents includes a second given name e.g Jackson, Rose Daisy. is it ok or do I need to do any kind of explanation

2. My husband (secondary applicant) has his surname and 3 given names on his birth certificate e.g Paul John Ralph Reed while on all his other documents, one of the given names which appears first on the birth certificate has been excluded e.g Paul, Ralph Reed. is it ok or do I need to do any kind of explanation

3. My baby is only 8 months old and is not due for the yellow fever vaccine so we did not get a yellow card for her from port health, however she has her national immunization records card issued by the public health centre which we used during medicals. i hope this is okay for her own immunisation evidence.

4. My PTE report had been sent to DIBP from Pearson directly a while ago, do i need to go back and resent it when lodging my application?

Your kind suggestions/advice will be appreciated.

Thank you
For Qs 1 and 2:, You ll mention it in form 80 and form 1221. Naming discrepancies are explained there. There is no problem with it
Q4: You still have to manually uppload your English test results during your visa application
I m not sure about infant immunization.
.
Cheers

Not true, not true. International license is not accepted in Australia.

Wenever u intend to travel to any country of ur choice, and u wish to drive around d country.. you can obtain d international license here in nigeria before leaving for d country.. it's always 1yr validity before it expires, buh it can be renewed..
It depends on the "abroad" country. I still use my Nigerian license to drive here in Australia, though we are given some months to change to their national licence. International license is not accepted. Students and visitors here can use their nigerian licences throughout the duration of their stay

You are still alive Oga.... Lol

See ehen... If what you came here to do is elicit sympathy from faceless people then you have failed woefully.... You have to realize that nobody truly cares.... You have to get up and help yourself... Not about coming online to rue about your misfortune... Everyone has a story... A bad one at that.... I always tell people, if I can survive what I survived in 2010..then there is absolutely nothing no one will not survive.


Go and help yourself... Pray often too... Stop looking for sympathy here... No one truly cares guy.
Abeg what did you survive in 2010?
