The above recap shows that North has always enjoyed spilling the blood of innocent Nigerians mostly Christians yet they want one Nigeria. What an irony!

Professor, you've just proven right the saying that common sense is not always common. You could not even follow the topic correctly yet you call yourself professor. The topic said developed (first world countries) with the most beautiful girls and your is Brazil. I hear you professor. Pride goes before a fall. Go get the facts right first.

aaronson: dude where you got your facts from cus that source is not telling you the truth brazil and Argentina aren't third world nations cus the have stable economy,its funny you even liking them to nigeria but guess what,as at 2011,brazil overtook the Uk as the 6th largest economy...look up the web,hold up tho,did you ever compare brazil to nigeria,do you know without brazil you wouldn't get rice abundantly here in nigeria...brazil and argentina are fast developing countries and could be classified in the second world place and not with your nigeria third world place.
So you mean Brazil is more developed than UK? You also mean Brazil and Argentina are developed countries? Are u serious or you made a mistake in your research? Go and check again, then come back and do the needful. You know what I mean?

aaronson: Is nigeria developed as some latinos nations like brazil and argentina
Developed countries are also called first world countries and Brazil and Argentina are not in that category. Brazil and Argentina are still ranked as third world countries like Nigeria. Get my emphasis right.

RomanceRe: Is Love Possible Without Money? by nationwide24: 6:20pm On Jul 20, 2014
xp17: the question should be "does love really exist amongst partners?

love is kinda illusive to me , because I'm yet to see 'love' exist without a condition attached.

real love is when you find nothing interesting in the person, but just love the person, irrespective of his/her status quo.

note: even if you love the person because he/she is being nice, the "NICE" already placed a condition which makes it infatuation. and infatuation is a bitchh , especially when that first attraction is gone. hope you grab this? Geoff!

in my stand to be corrected opinion, I'd say true love is only found amongst parents and their kids ,because no matter what , they are always there for one and other , irrespective of what.

be the first to pick a stone if only you can agree to date and nurse a partner that's imbecilic or have other types of severe disabilities, for 23yrs plus with smiles, hope, prayer, love, and care without knowing him/her from Adam and eve. if not, then love does not exist btw spouses

Well said bro. People deceive themselves with love when they are actually lusting.
RomanceWhat Makes A Relationship A Lasting One? by nationwide24(op):
Love- 99% of so called love is lust; usually fades into thin air of illusion.

Money/wealth- may not always be there. Hence, why many relationships hit rock when the source of money is compromised.

Beauty/handsomeness- Like love/lust naturally certainly depreciates.

Just learnt it and felt I should share it on this lovely forum. Thanks to Seun Osewa.
Opinions on what can make a relationship a lasting one are welcome. I will be back with the ultimate answer after service. Happy Sunday to everyone!


Updated:
The answer is sacrifice, sacrifice and sacrifice. It may be sacrifice of comfort, time, finance, pride even freedom. Many breakups would have been averted had the right sacrifice been done by the parties involved. I hope this piece helps someone.

RomanceRe: My Girl Is Secretive by nationwide24: 10:40pm On Jul 19, 2014
okparaugo: Oga, inasmuch as I will do as you said, because i am literate, tolerant and self controlled, it will be subject to her explanation when she comes back. I know her temperament and she doesn't like talking when she is busy.

For someone when she wants to make her hair, I pay, when she wants recharge card, I pay, when she wants to buy stuff, I pay, then I ask you where you are going to, you tell me its your family matter. That's crap.

Where was your family when i was maintaining part of your upkeep ?
Bro, this is the reason I hate a polarised spending formular in a relationship. Thus students and non working class ladies are no no for me. I spend for ladies but it must be a bipolar process otherwise I port. Leave love out of this matter. I tell you I have been blessed in like manner till date.

RomanceRe: How Do I Keep My Long Distance Relationship Sparkling by nationwide24: 9:47pm On Jul 18, 2014
xp17: op, I don't recommend long distance relationship, especially when you don't have prior physical contacts . I'm not against it either, but I believe you only get to love/like what you see and feel because they are very real and constitute our physical environment. what you hear may go either ways, most times the stories are altered to sound appealing.

I have seen some kinda situations where a lady ll be on phone with her long distance love bird whilst being in bed with another Allen fella simultaneously, same goes to some guys. in other word, it called "monkey they work, bamboo they chop" lol

in this scenario , since you are in already, I'd advise you to be like 55-65% involved, let her be at least 35% involved. you could tell if she's fully in with her level of involvement, not in all cases though.

the advancement in tech has made it kinda easier for long distance relationship. my question is : are the folks involved really loyal and trusted enough? you do not give trust to the dogs, the given person must earn it, otherwise you are heading to a disaster that is about to happen.


op, I wise you good luck. but make sure you try all you could to make it work and if things goes otherwise, let heaven bear you witness that you did tried all your best, maybe you weren't destined to be together.


life itself is a risk, take it , you might be the lucky one.

You've told him the truth others are hiding from him bro. Most logical and realistic opinion on the thread so far.
HealthRe: PSN More Reasonable Than NMA? by nationwide24: 3:55pm On Jul 18, 2014
drered: I'd rather blame PCN than blame you.. If things were the way it should be. Any strike effected by pharmacists would be comprehensive.. Lock down in hospital pharmacies likewise community and industry. Then we'd see how much impact would be felt.. Lol. Common hatred? This is just a comeback from repression that has gone on for so many years. The tides have changed..
You said locked up pharmacies in hospitals.Nurses usually lock up wards so that the impact of their strike can be felt but doctors have no where to lock. They only leave with their knowledge and the impact is immense. Truely doctors deserve applause for this singular uniqueness.
HealthRe: JOHESU Sues NMA, Says Doctors Strike Illegal by nationwide24: 7:10am On Jul 17, 2014
Waiting patiently to hear court judgement on this one. JOHESU says doctor cannot embark on strike because NMA is not a registered union, so individuals and groups who embark on hunger strike around the world are registered unions? I feel this is the chance for JOHESU to show how irrelevant Nigerian doctors are in health system as they usually say by taking over the managements of patients in Teaching Hospitals and FMC's.
RomanceEx Syndrome And Faithfulness Of Nigerian Girls by nationwide24(op):
Majority of girls go back to their exes. Perhaps guys too. I don't necessarily mean re-establishing new relationship per se but making love. Even those in seeming serious relationships are not spared this axe. This begs for the question, "where are the loyal one?" I know there are few loyal ones.

Even girls who say they can never attempt it still go back. Even those who had bad breakups still go back.

Am I the only one observing this unsavory trend? It's so common that it gets me thinking. I stand to be corrected though. Let's hear from ladies and gentlemen in the house.

I want to say what's the rush with your new boo? Taking u to his patents after just 2 weeks of relationship? Is there a bell ringing in ur head?
I am not saying he has an ulterior motive but babe, guys who move too fast sometimes are trying to cover some inadequacy you might find out after a long while. Take ur time to weigh the balance well. Pick your choice with prayers and listening to that tiny inner voice that never goes wrong.
My take exactly. He might not be as golden as he looks shiny. It's too fast to do those introductions. Girl be wise. All I'm saying is thread with caution.
