Juliusdaughter: Let me just start somewhere Growing up as an introvert was difficult cos I guess my mum didn't understand my quite personality, she talks about how I am not 'sharp' how I am not fashionable and whatever else she cannot really relate to. I am in my mid 20s now and she still insults me when she is in the mood. It's funny how I am the only child she insults so much, I am her first born. I left my former work place due to Corona last year and I've been home since. I have trained as a tailor tho I don't have a shop or customer base yet.
She insulted me tonight again for cooking dinner late, she said why should I finish cooking dinner by past 7? Called me names and all that. Its been over a year that she went to the market last because I now do that, I make breakfast and dinner, I don't keep late night, I barely go out, yet she finds reason to talk me down.
She has started to insult my fiancé now too, she says he is poor and cannot take care of me, what has he achieved for himself? And the reason she isn't much against us is because she doesn't know if he will have money tomorrow. He isn't even jobless, it's just unfortunate that government don't pay their workers on time.
I don't have a single emotional connection with her, I have tried and I have failed. I think it's time to move out of the house and start my tailoring business. I don't have the finance to rent a shop and a house separately, so I want to rent a room and parlor and make it both my living and work space. Is this a good move? I cannot function properly in this house anymore. How do I build my customer base from working in the house?
Just what you do when you move out make sure you succeed... Falling back home will mean suicide.
When I follow my mama go burial go loose guard eat food like pikin mama never feed for years... I just dey eat, lick plate with tongue, carry other people plate lick too.... My mama wan kee me for house, she beat me till I no get strength cry again... I just sleep off till the next day.
EgunMogaji2: I keep a healthy list of people whose death I am ready to celebrate. I'm sure that I'm on a list of few.
I run a Google notification nation for several of them. One day I got notified that one got arrested for pedophilia in Texas. I personally went and danced in front of his house and his office. I printed a shirt with his picture where he was wearing jail clothes and in handcuffs.
If you stand by the river long enough you'll see the body of your enemies float by

RapistOnBail: You see one of the many reasons not to trust Nigerians with your money?
They come begging and dying for loans. Give them and see if you’ll get it back in due time.
Op,
You and other Nigerians who are loan defaulters are MAD!!!
I once gave a so called fri”ENEMY” of mine money to pay for an apartment cos I wasn’t in town and I wanted making payments ASAP to secure this apartment.
3 days passed and this caretaker kept telling me she hasn’t received any payment from any of my friends she saw when We went for the inspection.
I called the Bandit who refused picking my calls ever since I started pressurizing him to either pay for the house or send me back my funds.
Las las, the idiot sent me back about 30% of the money I gave him.
As a wise business man, I took the 30% and left the rest for him.
Today, the guy is broke and helpless. He has lost the only source of livelihood and can’t call me for any help.
I sit on my throne and watch him suffer. I’m waiting for his eventual death which will mean nothing to me.
Ciao.
You're waiting for someone dead because of money....what makes you different from him now?

How I wish you could just read to understand. You are looking for Jesus saying “I am God”. You won’t see that. But if you are reading to learn, you would open your mind and understand.
And I am amazed that even after reading all those Bible verses in the Gospels and the Epistles, that was all you could say. Wow!
At least some people argue that they only believe the Gospels and not Paul’s epistles like I cited. Yours is completely off the mark
In all the verses you quoted, do you notice there was a supreme being, a father figure? There's one whom the other bow to? Jesus isn't that supreme being... The father is.
Can't believe you're quoting me with clear evidence of Jesus not being GOD and still arguing he is at the same time.
Nothingserious: Only God had ever forgiven sins. In the gospels Jesus forgave sins, and the religious leaders said it was sacrilegious.
Only God ought to receive worship, the Gospels account that Jesus was worshipped and he never cautioned or stopped them from worshipping him.
The last of the Gospels John had so much to say about Jesus being same as his father God.
If you don’t mind, the epistles by Paul and Hebrews had a lot to say about Jesus being same with God.
If you don’t like the accounts of the Epistles, you can stick to Matthew, Mark and Luke. But if you like John, a lot was written there too.
Thomas also exclaimed “My Lord and my God” and Jesus did not challenge or correct that.
Thank you.
If you read my previous comments you'll understand I stated Jesus was given authority to do those things, it was God who gave him those authority... Which he himself clearly stated in the Bible.
Jesus had, have no power to do anything without God's authority.. Read your Bible carefully. Once you understand he was given those authority by something greater him, then you'll understand he wasn't God.
No need arguing this, alot of people seems to have comprehension problems.
Omo I'm constantly praying for parents with kids during this era o...
Even as a single guy when I check my weekly expenses, the zeal to work just die off. It's like a rat race.
Imagined big closeup toothpaste of N150 few years ago is now N500.
Last one I bought a month ago was at N350, and N500 yesterday.
My neighbour wife delivered twins last week Friday, both girls... These are people with 5 kids already, all girls. I guess they were seeking for boys, since that Friday husband has not returned home I was weeping for the man, a plumber for that matter.
