Positivechick: He's a visionless moocher who is happy to receive from everyone, without giving in return, cannot plan a week in advance, and makes a priority of nobody but himself. Don't even worry about why he thinks you are leaving, after you have already spoken. Walk away and move forward with your life. Ignore those who tell you you are ungrateful. They are trolls. 1 Like 1 Share |

charlesELIKIBA: Our dreams deal with different aspects of our inner selves. How I interpret your aunty dreams: on some level, YOU are still believing your aunt's whispers against your own better knowledge; you are not being a good friend to yourself when you believe those whispers. Your dream about your aunt forgiving you--turn it around, forgive your aunt, for her ignorance. It is done, she is gone, let her whispers be silenced. |
Romance / Re: I Proposed To My Girlfriend But She Doesn’t Wear Her Ring by NiCurious: 10:49pm On May 26, 2020 |
Hotzone: If she's even maybe at a higher position than you in your organization and likely earning as much or more, why are you taking care of her bills? If you are getting tired of "terms and conditions", which sounds like you've been dealing with them for more than a week since you proposed, why did you then rush to propose? As to why she's not wearing her ring, there are innocent reasons and not so innocent reasons, and I don't know her, to know her reasons. |
Properties / Re: Please Help. My Apartment Is Being Haunted By A Ghost. by NiCurious: 7:29pm On May 25, 2020 |
wjxavier: See, whether ghosts are real or not...they are real to the OP. Even if this is a figment of his imagination, for the ghost to be settled, he must address this figment of his imagination, or projection, as if it were real. His imagination or psyche or conscience will answer back regarding what the unfinished business is that he has with the deceased. If we offer our advice in terms he is familiar with and can relate to, it is easier for him to understand what he can do next, to settle his matter. (Just my opinion about how this all works. ) |

Cloud699999: [This thread runs to 21 pages already and I didn't read all through, please forgive me if I'm asking something you've already answered.] Setting aside any argument about whether ghosts exist or not. A 36 year old just died in her sleep? Of what? Let's run with this being the ghost of the young woman who surely had no plans to die any time soon. She must have had unfinished business, and is asking you to help. From what you know of her, what might that be? Where are her kids, are they with her sister, or are they grown up? Is there something left undone in her apartment? How did you and she relate? Is there unfinished business between you two? Next time she appears to you or makes a noise, get bold. Ask her what she wants from you. Be courageous and open to understanding her reply. It might not be in words. |
Romance / Re: Should I Break Up Or Make Up With My Boyfriend? by NiCurious: 6:31pm On May 22, 2020 |
Acmepreneur: If you're not ready to break up, separate for a while, and apply all that good advice that you gave him, to yourself, to grow yourself and your own finances. Without you always nagging in his ear, your boyfriend can contemplate for himself, the wisdom of his choices, and change his course if he chooses to, and not because you told him to. Meanwhile, look for someone on your own wavelength. Take your time and look well: you are young, no need to get married next year. |

tot: Legally, it is only available by prescription. However, it's easily obtained illegally as a street drug. Part of the problem is that the street version has variable potency, as the buyer never knows if it's been cut with other substances, or is relatively pure, so it is easy to overdose. There has been a fentanyl overdose issue in Canada for a couple of years, now. Fentanyl is a painkiller, and is also used as a sedative for medical procedures. In hospital, I was administered a minuscule quantity, which made me unconscious. When I woke, all I knew was that I had had the most restful nap ever. I would gladly have gone under again. And I'm not a druggie. That's when I realized how addictive this drug must be. People on this thread forming self-righteous about bad parenting being the cause of addiction, have no idea what they're talking about, and for the sake of them and their families, may they never have firsthand knowledge. |

Politics / Re: The Infectious Disease Control Bill: What You Should Know by NiCurious: 2:24pm On May 06, 2020 |
AmazingELixir: Agreed in principle. The way the bill's cited points have been written, it's emergency measures, war measures, in a war against contagion. To stop the spread of any contagion, the NCDC needs discipline and compliance, and control over who (carrying what) enters and leaves their isolation centers, or the ability to stop the movement of infected persons, to prevent the further spread of contagion. HOWEVER, the rampant abuse of power in Nigeria, worries me, given what these sweeping powers permit. 1 Like |
Health / Re: COVID-19: WHO Says Madagascar's Herbal Tonic Not A Cure by NiCurious: 1:56pm On May 06, 2020 |
It is important to understand the difference between treatment and cure. A treatment helps with the symptoms, but does not kick out the infection, which a cure would do. Nobody is saying, don't to use the Madagascar as a treatment for the symptoms. But understand, it is still the body's own immune system that must beat the infection itself. 1 Like |

If you aren't willing to try Bukatyne's approach within the marriage, then I think you know the answer. It's time to cut free and then do the things that Bukatyne suggests, after the marriage. Good luck. |

Education / Re: Some Grammatical Mistakes You Make And Things You Say Wrong. by NiCurious: 5:18pm On May 02, 2020 |
Sir, it is one of several proper uses of the word "idiomatic", that I have defended. It's not personal to me: it's externally verifiable, as I have shown. About your tactics in conducting an argument, now.... Rather than doing minimal research by checking a dictionary (even an online dictionary, at your fingertips), you continue to assert that the one meaning of[i] idiomatic[/i] that you are already familiar with, out of several, is the only meaning--even when provided with proof to the contrary, which you didn't seem to absorb. You prefer to project your own limited knowledge onto the person you are engaging with. You attempt to portray presentation of a simple, verifiable truth, as a character flaw, and you expect admission of incorrectness from the person who has shown you that your own information is incomplete. You continue to be defensive with false offensive and bluster, after you received a concrete rebuttal, which would be laughable if it wasn't so sad. Clearly you are not interested in a discussion for the purpose of clarification and understanding, which was the broader purpose of the OP's thread in the first place. Your mind is made up, so I won't confuse you with more facts. We have nothing further to discuss. Good day. omonnakoda: |
