Some people find their "soulmate" after they get married.

This is not a justification for adultery though.

Exactly.. some people just hurriedly get hitched because of some factors like age, economy, convenience, etc without deeply reflecting or being totally convinced that they can be with the other person after the whole razzmatazz dies down

Arostar2023:
How’s that your business? Most thoughtful women I know would want to marry someone older than them. Because of a fact, most older men are more experienced and emotionally stable than younger men and also most women age faster than men.

Exactky. Infac since the old times, women often married men way older than them. Biologically men and women and not the same...

meobizy:
I knew they would be light-skinned women. We laugh at Ghanaians for their low self-esteem regarding their complexion, meanwhile we suffer the same. I understand their exotic look because they are mixed. We have a lot of beautiful dark-skinned females in this country. Ghana too.

Right...the beauty ain't even extra ordinary. Lots of regular light skin girls out there more beautiful than these girls..

ZombieTERROR:
Barcelona has been scammed

Gordon is everton level player

I tell you...on and off kinda player

Mrchippychappy:
Old Nollywood had substance. Poor production but you were glued to the story, even back then when you pretended to be disinterested in the story all in the name of being a tough guy, you go still dey use one eye dey watch.

Now they brought in too much cooperate money, everything from Jenifa and the new Nollywood feels like an hour long commercial, Globacom sticker everywhere, supermarket being promoted, Infinix logo having more screen time than most of the actors. Social media influencers randomly showing up for pointless cameo appearance that are totally irrelevant to the story

Abeg take us back to the old nollywood, living in bondage, evil men, rattle snake, Oracle, Orasi-iyi, Igodo, Osoufia

Hahaha...that your first paragraph got me. I remember how we acted tough like watching naija movies was an "abomination" and made us feel local. Only the ladies in the house were watching but we dey carry "one eye" looke true true like you said..

wiseone28:
Man City ruined their chance of winning the league by drawing Everton

No problem if Arsenal at least take since UCL is out of their reach

I think the Bournemouth match tomorrow is another tough one for Man City..

ZombieDredd:
Delete your useless drafts, you hateful twats.

Arsenal go give una high BP

Most of all these clowns who hate Arsenal so much for no reason is just because of fear, envy & hate. Absolute clowns for just follow bandwagon without brains to think for themselves....

Pootle:
gambling is the younger brother of faith, so what is faith?

Faith is a complete trust, confidence, or firm belief in a person, idea, or religion, often without tangible proof. It also signifies loyalty to a person or cause.

faith bible version: the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen

Oh well, this your take is quite interesting!

Gbadugbakun:
I will support athletico to win. Nothing for arsenal this season

Well, you have rights to your prediction and wishes...but yjay does not mean it will happen for certain..

Murketeer:
I see pains everywhere....so arsenal is supposed to skip their scheduled games because Man city is playing an FA cup semi final right ?...pls banter with knowledge of you want to banter

Pls don't even bothet respond to some people...their hating and wish for Arsenal to fail has made them so misreable and turned some of them to outright clowns...

SixSeven:
That's unfair and while they all tout security this and that, it is a way of making the industry keep getting funds. I wait for EU to step in. Microsoft is notorious for these changes which are all to make us spend more. Messaging should not be this hard. WhatsApp today is no longer simple, just complex like you're on IG. I hope someone else introduces another simple app. If it was the simple things we used to have on WhatsApp, we would not need these updates but now only WhatsApp:
1. Challenge stickers
2. Status updates from pages (WhatsApp was supposed to be for your closed circle)
3. Group video calls (WhatsApp can now do zoom type calls)
4. All, Unread, Favorites, Groups, Updates, Comminites, Lists etc
5. Status Views that are influenced by algorithm. Before you will just view status based on time of post, now, chat with someone, the next thing is to see their status next. The status view is now like the endless scroll online. All these things of course will make us upgrade it. I always knew Meta buying WhatsApp will create a bad experience because to them, you are just metadata

We didn't ask for these things, they made something simple difficult to use.

Agree with you...they've made whatssap too busy and unnecessarily cumbersome. That satus ehn..

Starz825:
Not an arsenal fan thooo

Lmao...see how rushed to conclusion thinking you were an Arsenal fan, he just concluded cos he is more interested in the downfall of another team than the progress of the very team he supports. That is how almost all them supporters are. This is a mental case if you ask me...

mascot87:
Even as a man, it doesn't look okay to be single at 35 to 40 years not to talk of woman

That is ehn..

Sonofgod1990:
Las Las. How market

....hands up. Enjoy this one. Arsenal go still win this league by one point Las las

Slippy:
Arsenal players are the worst tacklers I've ever seen

They make average players look world-class

Imagine 2-3 Arsenal players can mark or tackle Nico O'Reilly, Doku or Cherki at a time

Exactly....don't know why tackling is such a big thing for them. Look at that Cherki goal, I actually blame Eze for not putting up a tackle or at least pressure on the man from outside the box..haba

Sonofgod1990:
No too carry am for mind say una must win because of hypertension. Because arsenal go do una strong thing today.

Final scores

Arsenal 0 vs Manchester City 3

This prediction has already gone to the dustbin...pls tell me what will happen in the second half

Hahahaha....you just brought back memories. The way we believed this mythical story back then ehn . Some versions even said it was Pele that scored that one for Nigeria. He removed his boot and played the penalty....

Usmanovic95:
City vs arsenal is the only the only fixture they will face off, if arsenal get a positive result there and win the rest of their matches, city can also win the rest of their game.The only concern is just that arsenal is not serious,they made Bournemouth look like the one in the title race yesterday.

Well said...Honestly Arsenal are causing their own problems. Playing too cautiously afraid to loose like they are not chasing glory. The worse part is that playing cautiously but still loosing the game. Why not play openly to their attacking strenght? It's such a pity if Arsenal allow this City side to overtake them and win the league. They are not special like previous Guardiola City sides. See how Chelsea and ripping them...smh

Bahamas95:
Wait o, wetin concern Arsenal with Manchester City vs Liverpool match?






I see so many comments about Arsenal here.

Ask me ooh...rivals and haters just cant keep Arsenal's name from their mouth. Kai! It has turn into madness my brother

Doyou2019:
Liverpool bossing things so far - wey dey make me vex say Arteta chose to be cowardly in that final.

Exactly....all those comments above cos saying Man City will always beat Arsenal in a final bla blah blah is simply because if the negative tactics Arteta went to deploy in that final. Why playing City with 'fear or caution'. And they still ended up loosing....cowardly tactics by Arteta

virginboy1:
How time flies...45 years naw naw

I tell you...I remember that is first song parodying Rihanna just like yesterday. I also like how he became matured and full before getting married . Ones a man has some cash and looks fresh, 40's is a well balanced age

princeade86:
So if they give pdp to wike today, will he still support tinubu or pdp candidate.

If they give him that ticket it's just all in the grand plan. He is a staunch Tinubu supporter so getting that PDP ticket is just to weaken the opportunity for another strong candidate from PDP..

QuinQQ:
Just for sake of the children. Otherwise he'd actually be happier with a woman nearer his age

Exactly ...just like you rightly stated, if it's just companionship and all a woman from 35 and near to his age above will be convenient but he wants a younger woman children. I don't know what the complaint is about sef

Lukuluku69:
He done talk wetin him want. If you are interested and within the the age range, holler him.

His marriage, his business....

Exactly....I don't know why people just like to comment, criticise or chuk mouth in what is not their business. I mean if it's not ones cup of tea just ignore and pass.

ChizzyBuna:
Portable taught me something about LIFE

There is no manual to make it in life
It's not by going to best school in UK.
I know one big PDP guy her daughter go the top schools. Still she be drug addict. Coke
Nothing to write home about. Very sad

While a shameless agbero dey chop 50 million
Money wey lecturers wey carry dignity and prestige for head like gala
No fit see or taste for this life. Lai lai

One thing no school will ever teach you is
To be successful in life you have to throw away SHAME. Remove shame.

I saw an old video of Fela in an interview
I will never forget what he said

"Shame is what our parents used to control and condition us from reaching our true potential in life.
Look at me, I don't have any shame."

A man who wears only pant is not afraid of anything. He is not afraid of Life. Because there is no shame.
All of Fela mates that claim righteous and care what others will say about them.
Nobody remember them at all.

But 40 years later Fela is still talked about
Infact A dead fela still win GRAMMY

Only the shameless win in LIFE.

Now back to portable
Portable has no shame and that is why he is popular
Carter Efe has no shame and he us popular

Now see both of them chopping tens of millions like it's nothing.
You that have Shame still struggling with 20k per month salary Dey play my fans

Only the brave will enjoy this earth
The shy timid good boys will be slaves to the system and die off with peanuts.

If you like allow Shame to put you in cage

King David that danced naked in temple
Had no bloody SHAME.
God has a way of rewarding those that have no shame.

Every successful person I know has no SHAME.

Thank you

This your post got me thinking 🤔...thought provoking

mumanex:
I'll go straight to the point because I respect your time.
I am a 40 year old Nigerian man, settled, responsible, and clear about what I want from life. I have thought deeply about this and I am not writing out of desperation or confusion. This is a deliberate decision.

I want to have a child. I am fully prepared to be present, involved, and financially responsible for that child. I do not take that lightly.

However I am not interested in marriage or cohabitation. Not because I am running from responsibility, but because I have genuinely examined my life and I know that I function best with my independence and my peace. I believe a forced or unhappy home does more damage to a child than an honest, structured arrangement between two mature adults.

What I am looking for is a woman who:
● Wants to be a mother but is not desperate for a husband

● Is independent, stable, and self-aware
Values her own space and privacy as much as I value mine

● Is honest enough to have a real conversation about what she actually wants from life ,not what society expects her to want

● Is open to a respectful, structured co-parenting arrangement where both parties are clear from the start

I will be involved in my child's life consistently. I will provide. I will show up. I just will not be living under the same roof or wearing a ring.

I understand this is not for everyone and I am not trying to convince anyone. If your dream is a church wedding and a husband who comes home every night, I genuinely wish you that, this post is simply not for you.

But if you have ever quietly felt that the traditional script does not fit your personality, your past, or your current reality and you want a child in a honest, pressure-free environment then maybe we have something worth discussing privately.

I am open to a genuine conversation. No games, no time wasting.

Drop a comment or send a DM if this resonates.

Properly presented....

Agreed....as a man you have to pay for any form of refreshment when you invite/take a girl out. Even if she decides to pay transport for herself offer to let her be the one to decline or not..

davidtemi:
Boh of them are right.

The younger brother went in search of better life, hustle, but didn't make it and returned as a "learner" - he must have learnt 1 or 2 from outside Incase of next time.

The older one is not in any way moved by the noise on the social media and stay at home because he still can not handle things on his own without shame after all its his father's house

As simple as that...the only thing for me is that there is no need for him to 'mock' the younger one. But I agree with you mahn

Sonofgod1990:
21 good years without trophy 🏆? See as I just dey pity you

If I be you I for just leave arsenal go dey support stoke city

It is not 21 years without a trophy, but 21 years without the PREMIER League trophy. Arsenal have won 4 FA cups between 2013 to 2020....

seunmsg:
Omo Man U, oju e ma bo ni. It will end in tears for all you Man United fans today by God’s grace.

They will always hope the next team Arsenal is playing will beat them. It has become really comical now from rival fans...

geoworldedu:
3 beatings in a season is not a new thing. We've done it to you guys in the days of Wenger too. And we have won the UCL, UCL, Europa League, Europa League, Conference League, Club World Cup, Club World Cup, Super Cup, Super Cup also won every other cups in the world. Which of these aforementioned have you guys won? Your European Trophy and World Cup is winning Chelsea and Real Madrid

I thought this is about head to head beatings and not about trophies. Kai you guys always like to shift the goal post from main topic of discussion to listing of trophies past. I get am before no be property.

dequir:
Even with one player down, Chelsea continued to put pressure on Arsenal till the end. Though they lost, they certainly impressed me as a strong club.

All these kind of talks are convenient excuses for teams who loose games. It use to be said to Arsenal back then when they loose matches (that they play well, tiki taka bla bla blah)...guess what, rival fans and pundits always mock them that it is only 3points that matter. In fact, last season Arsenal draw with Man City at the Etihad with ten men right from the first half and they were still mocked for playing draw....

So what are my saying, the same principles should be applied without bias to each situation no matter the team involved. Not selective amnesia like most rival fans and pundits do especially towards Arsenal

Anyway, well played Chelsea
