Ha ha...brown belt in Kung fu is nothing. I am Grand Master in Krav Maga ![]() Beats you? *cracks knuckles* Tallesty1: |
If the child is below 13, I will discipline (not necessarily beat) him/her the same way i'll do to my kids of younger sibling. If older i'll still discipline (not above 18 though, that one na adult). If the parents don't like it, they should come get their child. I won't walk on eggshells in my home. If above 18, and I have repeatedly talked and no change, the parents berra come get their child. The ish about husband's family na wash. So, because na hubby's famz, he/she should act rudely? |
Marriage is worth fighting for BUT avoid wasting time fighting a hopeless fight. If una die on top marriage, your spouse sabi bring girlfriend/boyfriend to una burial. In cases involving physical or emotional abuse, RUN RUN RUN. Staying because of your kids, has bad results. Y'all need to read the views of kids from abusive homes. |
I agree. I'm also not about equality but fairness. Treat each other with respect. Treat me the way you want to be treated. Don't expect submission when you're not ready to go the extra mile. Some women and men need to understand that concept...BALANCE Side note: that #6 really angers me. A friend went to jail because of it (they were not drunk though). Few days after having consenting séx, she reported to the cops that she was raped. Unfortunately, he spent few months in jail before the case was resolved. He was eventually cleared of all charges. Mehn, the guy came out vexing. He's in the process of suing the girl. Just imagine the girl's wickedness. @ Tallesty1, yes, some women want to eat their cake and have it, the same can be said about some men. My point is couples should treat each other with mutual respect and fairness Ladies, men are not stùpid, if you're with them because of money, don't scream blue murder when they treat you like a doormat C'est fini. edwife: |
Some Nigerians are hypocritical. Let's go back down memory lane. Loven the tattoo lady saved the 'possessed' child. Something the "untattooed" Nigerians couldn't do. So i'll accept her with open arms. I'll take a pure heart (regardless of the outward appearance) over an evil heart (with 'perfect' outward appearance). |
This is a lie. Please confirm facts before claiming authority on it. If you have cash, you can buy a house instead of having a mortgage. chuckvinz: |

Sigh, Africa is NOT a country. @ mickyeddi stop doing copy paste without editing. She's living in Nigeria, not Africa. Would you said 'she lives in North America?' That being said: things happen for a reason. He survived for 8 months (that alone is miraculous), then rescued only to discover that he has a birth defect. Now he will be able to have the operation to correct it...the boy has amazing luck...maybe a guardian angel. |
There are already conflicting stories in the guy's interview. He initially said her phone fell and broke then immediately changed it to he got angry and smashed it. Hmmmm... |
I hate to admit it , but you are right. It takes 2 parties...Ladies, we need to develop strong back bone and self esteem. No one is saying that you should leave immediately something bad happens... If consequences are heavier for men who cheat, we will have fewer cases. Because of the heavier penalties for women who cheat (and get caught), there are fewer cases. It's like corruption: In Nigeria, corruption rules, but if you get caught in saner country (by the wrong people), you will end up in jail. Summary: both parties should uphold their vows, respect each other, and respect yourself Self respect is priceless. MRBrownJ: |
Yes, you should. Friendship should be about telling each other the truth. When I was in secondary school, my friend once asked if I use deodorant. I said no and asked her the reason for the question. She said whenever I get sweaty, that she can smell a wet musty scent from me . Immediately, I contacted my parents to send deodorant. Since then, I always shave and use anti-perspirant to the extent of having a travel size in my bag.I am forever grateful to her. Who knows, maybe na during fight someone would have used it to embarrass me. So, please sit her down and tell her. You can even put together some toiletries (to include anti-perspirant, shaving sticks, shower cap, dettol, black soap or anti-fungal/bacteria soap etc.). If she reacts negatively, o well...her choice. thotianna: |

You typed exactly what I was thinking (minus the stupid part). @ Dharniel, you were scammed. Yes you did the descent thing though. A normal person with conscience would not have collected his phone from you. Even though you were scammed, don't stop doing good. I hail though...after initiating an exchange, he comes back to ask for a reversal (what if you sold it or gave it to someone), and then claims to have lost it...mehn...that's a sick and twisted way of thinking. Pastor pastor (or any other religious title) do not fool me. Na then I go point my full light on. spiralwedge: |
The government should establish the grazing reserves in other parts of the country. That way, other regions can supply their own cows thereby eliminating the market for the herdsmen. If that can happen, those herdsmen will have a rethink. But...it's nice to dream... In all honest, the nomadic style is the best for rearing cattle. We get 100% organic beef with little fat, lean meat, and well developed muscles. A compromise can be reached if the government establishes the grazing reserve along the grazing path. |
Mort de rire . I give up ...you're incorrigible.On a more serious note , I really hope he doesn't marry her in that condition in order to avoid stories that touch. To the readers: martial/relationship abuse should not be joked with. ilawanson44: |

Suggest exercising, karate, judo, taekwondo to let off steam. Everybody has anger issues, we just have different ways of dealing with it. Help her find healthy ways of dealing with it If you guys get married without settling the anger issues, I hope not to read your story on the front page...reference the IB guy that was stabbed in the neck by his 'lovely' wife ![]() |
Did anyone else notice that the hubby is also almost kneeling down to carry her back up? To me, it shows that the hubby was not expecting it as his due. Just an observation. |
@ charmmy, You alone can make the final decision. People have given you insights to both sides of the situation. Make a decision that you can live with...and not regret in the future. If it's staying with the 'elder': can you live with the possibility of sexual harassment? Or staying back home: can you live with the possibility of delayed job/income generating opportunities? |
Continuously show them the picture on their birthdays till they turn 50 ![]() Super cute though. Parents should endeavor not to mete out punishment in anger. |
If anyone has Damilola Adegbite's number, please forward this piece of advice. Late last year, a pregnant friend started to bleed. She went to the hospital (one of em so called private one in Lag) and the doctors confirmed that she had a miscarriage. She was devastated. She was asked to comeback the following week for surgery that would evacuate the womb. Something told her to ask for second opinion. Fortunately, they (her hubby & her) have the means to travel to yankee. So she came to yankee for checkup. The doctors told her that the baby is alive and developing well. Imagine! When she told me, I couldn't contain my joy and surprise. So please, if possible, ask the lady to seek second opinion. |
Isle is an island. Aisle is a narrow walkway, like in a church. "Last october we agreed to walk down the aisle" Back to the story... ![]() @ nlfan |
Postnatal depression is real. In a country like Nigeria where such things are deemed ridiculous/lie/unbelievable, the mother would not have had access to therapy/medication/care. Childbirth affects women differently. True story: recently, a good friend had a baby. She couldn't stand the sight of her son. She didn't touch him or breast feed him. She was diagnosed with postnatal depression. Fortunately, she has an understanding hubby, and lives in a country where provisions are made for such things. She was fine after weeks of treatment. Now, she's inseparable from her son. If na naija she dey, I can't imagine what she might have done, or the names peeps would have called her. |
Mcayofficial, My suggestion: Tell wiffie to pick between a big wedding or relocating with you. Just sit back and watch. Na she go tell her parents NO. End of discussion. OR In Yoruba land, na bride's family dey spend on reception oo. If the parents can't afford their 'dream' wedding, then they have no right to insist on an expensive one. I honestly do not understand the stress peeps give themselves because of a day's ceremony. Insist on the amount you are willing to spend, those not in favor should add their own money... ![]() |
