Programming / Re: Web Developers / Freelaancers: How Are You Getting Paid From Outside Nigeria? by melayemi: 2:34pm On Dec 06, 2022
tensazangetsu20:
Bros its not a joke. I remember when I started working my boss tried more than 4 payment platforms and after using it like 2 times he would get blocked cause he's sending money to Nigeria.

We currently use crypto as a means of payment after we exhausted all options but not every company can use this because of the tax implications.

I know 2 people who have lost jobs because the companies couldn't figure out payment methods and not every company wants to do dorm account transfer. Sometimes the stress is so much especially if it's a small company and it's an individual handling that while your colleagues in other countries are paid through PayPal. I just pity those who have given birth in Nigeria. If things are this bad only God knows how they will be in 20 years.

Please can I private message you ?

Mrkumareze:


You gave your wife room for what she's doing. Any woman who can't adjust her life pattern and mostly her friendship after marriage can never do well...
U should have stopped her from those male bestie and monitor her female friends too..
Well, for your own good, since she has gone spiritual, you must take her back to her family so you can comfortably and safely reason on the way forward.


You know I do this too by trying to control the male friends she talks to, but whenever we quarrel she always say am controlling

UK and their subtle racist attitudes. I can bet that there may be other white doctors who may have attended to the Ekweremadus in the process, but if by chance there is a Nigerian amongst them (even if he has lived and practiced in the UK all his life), they will find a way to single him out and rope him into the accusation. That's how they do.

Myself and my gf have been planning to travel out since early 2021. As God will have it I traveled around October for my masters degree and after one month she got her work visa to work as a nurse here in the Uk.
We live in different cities though but from my observations so far, I would say living in far away from home is boring.. so I can relate how the hassle of trying to find a relationship over here..
Am engaging her this week�. Having to spend time with her in her city takes away all the loneliness over here… My advice is don’t be desperate to date a white or marry them.. With proper planning you can achieve absolutely anything in Life

Health / Re: Getting Over Addictions.. by melayemi: 9:51pm On Aug 04, 2021
Robertgreene1:
my dear u re not alone...I've been there nd back nd I know how it feels like...
I battled severe trams addiction for 5 years...throughout my uni days...it wz js terrible....at a point I wz doing 800mg nd above of trams every single day...infact I stopped attending lectures..I do just hole up in my apartment..do trams nd doze all day...
I was acting weird...always agressive...ghosted everyone both family and friends...infact it was just me nd my darling t.m.
Then during dt great lockdown...my biz wz affected... so I holed up at home..then I said 2 myself.."I've had enough of this drug shit"...why not achieve something during ds frustrating lockdown by conquering this addiction demon?...
so I started fighting the demon nd it was a very painful nd long journey back 2 recovery....4 more than 6 months...I felt like dieing...d withdrawal phase was js terrible...d chills..d muscle spasms..d fever..d body pains...d mood swings (extreme highs and lows)..d anxiety... d Restlessness nd worse of em all...d insomnia(sleeplessness)...
so I used Diazepam(Valium) 4 d 1st 6 months 2 help ease d withdrawal symptoms a bit.
Then when I wanted 2 quit Valium after 6 months..I found out dt my system av gotten dependent on it as well...so it was back 2 square one ...Nd to my worst nightmare I found out soon enough dt d withdrawal symptoms of diazepam (benzodiazepines) is even far worse than that of tramadol (opiods)...it was js terrible..better imagined than experienced..
This time around I felt like I was completely loosing it...But lucky me...I discovered that alcohol can also act as a sedative just like diazepam so I used Alcohol for 3 months 2 ease d withdrawal symptoms of diazepam (pls run away 4rm any drug of d benzodiazepine family)....
2 cut d long story short...today I've been drug free for 8 months nd counting now..nd I ant going back 2 dt shit again...
so my dear u can do it.. just believe in urself.. tell urself dt u re stronger than that addiction...then fight d battle of recovery and remember not 2 rush it...Js take it one step at a time...u get closer 2 recovery wit each passing day as ur brain recalibrates itself back 2 it's pre-addiction state..find other hobbies 2 keep ur mind away from d drug(s)...if I can do it dear...then u can do it as well
Shalom....

Bro I think am worst of, my alcohol addiction is at its peak and when I try to cut it of I only go back worst .... I hope I can be alcohol free someday

Family / Re: My Wife’s Salary Was A Mystery Until I Discovered How Much She’s Truly Worth* by melayemi: 10:41pm On Mar 25, 2021
izito:
*

In 2016 she told me her salary was #50.000 And then two years later, when she got promoted, I asked about her salary and she said, “Oh these people, don’t mind them. They added only #5000 to my old salary. Because of her meager salary, I’ve taken up so many responsibilities in the house without complaint. I pay for utilities and pay for food. I pay the fees of our two kids, clothe them, and take care of their medical bills. When my wife sends me a grocery list, she adds sanitary pads. She buys dresses and clothes, comes to show them to me, and asks me to pay for them. She started talking about a car when our second child came in. Things weren’t good on my side so I asked her to give me some time. She said, “I’ve saved something. I can add it to what you have so you pay me when your money comes.”

I agreed and took that money from her, topped it up to get her a car. For three months my ears never rest. She would wake up at dawn and ask me to pay what I owed her. I got tired and paid the money when I didn’t have much in my account.

One evening, I turned my laptop on and saw a lot of emails. I checked and it was my wife’s email that had been opened. I asked her, “Did you use my laptop?” She answered, “Yeah I was checking something.” I told her, “Then you didn’t log out.” She answered, “I forgot. Please log out for me.” I was about to log out when something caught my attention. I saw a mail with the subject, “January Payslip.” I opened and started going through. When I saw her gross salary, I was shocked. #400,734? And this girl has been crying poverty?

I went through the details. That night I couldn’t sleep. I was angry. I felt let down. I felt cheated. I felt played. We’ve been married for six good years and my wife earned that much without my knowledge? How much she earned didn’t bother me a lot than what she was using that money for. I decided not to talk immediately but rather do a little bit of investigation.

All my life I’ve held the view that it wasn’t right for anyone to go through their partner’s phone. It’s an invasion of privacy and it breeds mistrust in the relationship but that night, going through her phone was the only way to find out what I was looking for. I started with her best friend. Nothing much was found. Her family had a Whatsapp group. I read the messages there. I got few hints. I went through the chat with her father and that was when I realized my wife had bought a piece of land and had started building. Her father was in charge of the project. He had sent photos of the various stages of the building. At some point, her father said, “Thank you for helping out your brother. He would have been home had it not been you.”

She has only one brother—her senior brother. I went to look for the chat between them. Her senior brother lost his job and was home doing nothing so my wife bought her Hyundai i10 to use for Uber. Every week, her brother rendered an account and they split the money. From all indications, my wife was doing well for herself while she plays poor so she could rely on my salary. Why would she do that? I thought I was being a supportive husband so my wife could be proud of the man she married. When we bought land, it was her name and my name that appeared on the land title. That car I bought for her with a loan from her bears her name. I didn’t mind. I believed what’s hers was also mine. 

The next morning she realized I wasn’t looking well. I was boiling on the inside but looking for a good opportunity to start the conversation. When I calmed down a little, I asked her, “So why would you do that to me?” She asked, “What have I done?” I answered, “You bought land, you never told me. You started building on it, you never told me. When are you going to tell me?” She was shocked. She asked, “Who told you all that?” I said, “Your father did.” She stood quiet for a while. She asked, “Why would my father tell you all that? What were you people talking about” I said, “I don’t know. You can ask him.” 

We left it there. Some minutes later she came to me with her phone: “My father wants to talk to you.” The phone was already on a loudspeaker. His father was clearly angry. He asked, almost shouting, “You said I told you my daughter has a building? Where did I say that and when?” I asked, “Is it not true that my wife has a building project going on that you’re supervising?”  He asked me, “I told you that?” I asked, “Is it true or not?” After the back and forth I told them, “I read your messages last night. I saw the pictures. I read the various budget you had sent to my wife. I read the confirmation of the money receipts that you sent her. You’re a man. Would you be happy if your wife does this to you?” He started fumbling. He started apologizing saying he thought I was aware.”


My wife stood there motionless, didn’t know what to say. When her father hung up, I told her everything I knew, from her salary to the car she bought for her brother. I said, “Yet, even your sanitary pad, I buy them. You think I’m a fool? You’ll use your money to acquire your own properties and live on mine because you’re my wife? I hear. We’ll see.”

Trust was lost. Love was broken. We had to find a new way of living our lives going forward. Her father called me every morning and evening apologizing for everything and sometimes taking up the blame so I didn’t have to blame his daughter. I told him, “The emotional state I’m in right now, it would be hard to think straight or think forgiveness. Just give me space.” Three days later, they were in our house. The father, the mother, and the senior brother. They came to apologize. “Don’t let this break up the beautiful marriage you both have. If nothing at all, consider the kids and be lenient in your judgment.”

I listened to them. My position was still the same. “I need time to clear my mind. Just leave me alone to think.” From last month to this moment that I’m writing this, my wife had changed totally. She doesn’t ask for money but the house is being run smoothly. She has started paying for things she never paid for but that doesn’t move me. She has taught me a very great lesson and I’m taking it seriously. That in everything, I have to look out for myself and my family first. Last she told me, “If you want us to change the names on those properties, we can do so.” Guess whose name is on the property…her father’s name.”

I told her, “You don’t need to change anything. They are yours. You suffered for them so you can decide what you want to do with them.” The land I bought has our names. I’m selling it and take my money back. The car she’s driving has her name. I put a for-sale sticker on it some weeks ago. She agreed she’ll pay for the car. I’ve given her two months to pay up or I sell it and take my money. She’s getting the message and I’m glad. Each one for himself, God for us all. She keeps asking if I’m going to leave her. I keep telling her I won’t but if she wants a divorce, I will gladly give her. I’m not going to leave the marriage. I would give us some time to heal and see what may happen but when it comes to money, I’ve taken the lesson she taught me through her actions. 

*What's your take?*


Reading through these and I feel like crying for the man, times like this makes me scared of getting married
You can imagine his wife of 6 years doing all that behind her husband's back.. Chaiii no na

Always put tracker on your vehicle. Its important thing to do.

A friend of mine his vehicle was snatch at gun point in the East here.
With tracker the car was located and two of the guys arrested.

I had my Rx350 stolen twice, the first time I didn't have tracker but I was lucky to have recovered the car same night as the armed robbers used the car for robbery and dumb it
The second time I was inside the car parked in front of a bar, I had a gun to my head and they took my phone and zoomed of with the car, that day I bought full tank oo!!!!
I wasnt worried at all, when people around were shouting thief I went to the bar and had like two bottles of Goldberg, why was I not worried?? I had a Tracker installed and guess what they didn't get far
They broke the key, I think they tried starting the car over and over again

Romance / #the Matter by melayemi: 6:00am On Jun 01, 2020
Have never been this serious with a lady in my life, am gonna make this brief, have professed my love for her, I provide for her needs to the best of my abilities, I take her on vacations, she in return let me know she's into this 100 percent.. Have told her that I want to walk her down the aisle.
We all know no relationship without struggles.
Sometime last year my gf went to Lagos with her friend to see a guy friend of hers, I later got to find out that this man in question is a Rev father and they have known for years, he flirts with her online and they might have had something for each other in the past, yes she went to lag with her friend.. I later found out through her whatsapp that this man has been chatting naughty with her, I confronted her and she cried profusely and apologized, I forgave and we moved on
Fast forward to this very moment
She doesn't know that am on her fb, she's been flirty with this same Rev father and they both booked an appointment to see at his house today, from the chats, is definitely not a deliverance section. my gf is gonna get bleeped by a Rev father by 12 noon today, should I confront her? Should I keep calm?
House na the matter when keep me awake all night long
#### note this babe is all sweet loving and caring.. Why do this with a Rev for christ sake
