Odunnu: I bet he had me in mind describing his 'goods'. For him,
I dont even mind being described as 'property' or even 'customised car'

Tgirl4real: Awww... Datz where u win me. I fit perfectly cos I got lovely legs with all d oda 'goods' description. But ...ermm...I'm not too tall.
Not short sha o.

Ermmm... Don't look her way jare. I heard she is getting married nxt Sat, but me I am single and seriously searching. Plus u fit my 'good' description.

Deep sight,
Pay no attention to Odunnu or Tgirl. Odunnu and Jyoti amge are height mates, while Tgirl's got 2 left legs.

I have a better option for you . . . .and erhmm, I swear it's not me.

Tgirl4real: Yea! I saw one of his threads and I fell in love.

He's mine alone My Joe!

Tgirl4real: I see u finally helped this person out. Why did she jump the queue?

Can you blame her? If she wasn't indirectly given the privilege to, I doubt she would have.

k2039: The responsibility then lies with the individual

You reach a certain age/stage before you're able to dominate peer/parental influence which happens to be a powerful factor in adolescent development. And after that stage, you really have to have a stronger influence to be able to do away with all the ideas accumulated in your infant years which is one important stage in life. What a child is subject to during these years of vulnerability to parental/peer influence usually determines what adult he'll grow up to be.

By environment, I wasn't just talking about physical environment. And to change one's environment, the individual a) first has to realize that there's something wrong with/in his present environment ( You think it's everyone who suffers from low self-esteem that thinks it's a problem?) b) then have a positive environment to switch to (You think there are many people out there who will see a seeming good-for-nothing, and still have the sense of encouragement to tell the individual that he's as good as anyone one else?)

Ali Baba, thanks.

I find Julius Agwu rather annoying.

I moved it to a more appropriate board - Entertainment.

More suggestions are welcome

It's not much a fault of the individual as it is of his environment.
You're a product of your environment. Your environment mostly determines your view, you act accordingly, and you are, to an extent, your actions.

A person that grew up listening to his parents call him a ne'er-do-well, will never see anything good in himself, and will eventually never do anything good unless he changes his environment, ideas and action.

Tgirl and Seun had me in stitches. Rotfl!

maclatunji: Hello Everyone,
1. People whose marriage has turned "sour". Why do you think this happened? Did you love your spouse at the beginning? What could have happened to kill that love if you answered yes to the last question.

It is possible there was love at the beginning, but as known, if it's not alimented it dies. Love is an emotion and like all emotions, it's not constant.

2. People who have gone through a lot of turbulence in their marriage but have managed to "survive the storm", how did you do it? What is your advice for other couples.

To sail stormy water in marriage or any union and triumph, one of the couple must be a fighter, determined to try everything possible to make it work. There are too many reasons a person could decide to walk away, only a resolute person pushes aside those reasons, strives daily to ignore 'em and see only why it must work.

3. Single people: what do you think marriage should do for you? What are your expectations of your future spouse? For example, do you accept that marriage confines you to be only intimate with your wife or wives if you plan to be polygamous as a man? Or do you think you owe your future spouse(s) no such obligation? Do you let the person you intend to marry know this?

One man, one woman - We must both understand this before we pledge, and this is not open to discussion.

4. Would you rather stay single if you don't find someone that meets your exact specifications for marriage or would you reduce your expectations and marry someone who reasonably meets your expectations going by the popular notion that "no one is perfect". If you agree to "settle for less", are you sure you won't bear grudges when the other party begins to show traits that are not so endearing to you? In other words, do you think you can you handle such a situation without straining the marriage?

My demands aren't out of this world; it's quite impossible that there's scarcity of men that measure up.

5. Marriage is a part of our social make-up as human beings. Are there things that we do as a society that contribute to the increasing rate of dysfunctional marriages? How can we stop such negative societal habits to reduce the rates of divorce and unhappy marriages?

Marrying for the wrong reasons and the availability of/ yielding to too many distractions are part of the problems. What can we do to help the situation? Take time to improve your person and desires so we can make the right decisions. A person of great value knows what to look out for - inner values. Those are the things that mostly stand the test of time.

[size=25pt]Pendusky's interview[/size]

And you believe none of your loved ones has ever lied to?

Topic : Confront him....and you don't necessarily have to leave now.

Mavor: I dont support what that freak says but I believe in freedom of speech. Censorship is against the nature of a free society. I have only seen mods deleting comments because it is politically incorrect, only on fu<king Nairaland. It doesn't happen elsewhere. Pure Bull$hit.

It's not about that particular poster, there are too many people who grew up without an affectional bond with their parents on this thread.

On NL, there are circumstances under which a thread/post should be deleted, you do not necessarily have to agree.
This may not be one of such circumstances, but there are also times in which the moderator's personal judgement should be trusted. If the OP requests its deletion and the moderator agrees, so be it.

Most comments here are too_____ to even see the light of day.

[quote author=Idi-Amin]This is the kind of stupidity i try to avoid from brain dead nigerians, don't know how you get access to the internet to be honest. 'Unless I want to start having sex with my daughters' you said. Really? Is that the conclusion you have made from my post. I'm out of here folks, does anyone know how to delete a post on nairaland?[/quote]I've always opined that many things are best left off NL . . . Too many idiots roaming about, wanting to be heard.

You can't delete your posts except the mod help you. Until then, use the modify button; modify your original post. I agree you should delete/modify the original post.

Hi Simon, you mistakenly posted with a wrong moniker.

It's not a question of what is proper or improper; it depends on what you're comfortable with.
Why anyone couldn't be comfortable un/dressing in front of their kid is what I cannot understand.

Yes, questions have been asked and appropriate answers were given.

If you aren't willing to share a room, why, in the first place, did you agree to share a home?!

All that one na capriccio!
The day you say 'I do' to me, you're saying I do agree to share everything with you - body, money, home, room, life and everything else.

Well, whatever rocks each one's boat!
