Are you talking from experience or just the normal internet slangs?

A cheating woman will be remorseful after being caught and will be ashamed to try such ever again but when a man is caught cheating, he'll be like I Bleep up I should be smarter next time
Never forgive a cheating woman. She will do it again. The remorse is just a film show for the gullible ones. Women always know what they are doing.

Romance / Re: Can The Past Life Of A Lady Truly Be Overlooked ? by olowoba2: 9:23pm On Jan 26
Elzazzi:
I will try and make this brief and please ignore the errors.

I was with my close friend yesterday evening. While we were chilling together, a call came in on his phone. it was his cousin that called telling what had happened and also seeking his advice. Now this is what happened, this his cousin has been dating this lady for about a year I think and he has already proposed to her and even took her to his parents and siblings. He also visited the lady family and did some introduction. Now April this year has been chosen for the wedding ceremony proper and a date has been fixed. This is where trouble started.

My friend cousin created a WhatsApp group for his wedding ceremony, he added all his friends and some of his classmates to this group so they can join hands and make his wedding day memorable. He posted his wedding IV to the group and some pictures of him and the lady, one of his old time classmate recognized her and immediately called him for a private meeting for urgent discussions.


He visited him the next day and this guy told him everything about his fiancée. How she used to be a stripper in Lagos clubs years back and how he and his friends had wild 3some with her. She used to base in Lagos as a call girl but relocated to Abuja and that’s where she met my friend cousin. After all these revelation this guy was in deep pain as he had already gone far with the weeding preparations. Of course his old time classmate advised him not to marry her, but this guy loves her so much and he is in a big dilemma of what to do next. As he thinking of leaving the country and go start life with her elsewhere.

Can such past truly be overlooked?

After my friend explained everything to me, I was just short of words but of course I advised he shouldn’t marry her. What advice would you give him in such a situation my fellow Nlanders ?
The guy must not be blindfolded by “love” or emotions. An olosho will also be an olosho.
The gal has probably noticed that the guy is naive and easy to deceive, as I am almost 100% certain the red flags must have been apparent in the relationship.
If he doesn’t detach now, he will regret it later. I’m 100% sure of that.
Tell the guy to RUN.

Travel / Re: Should I Keep My Federal Job Or Travel to the U.K by olowoba2: 12:51am On Jan 04
mistacoco2:
Hello guys,

For some days now I have been on a serious dilemma whether to resign from my federal government job that pays me above N200k for my current position and migrate to the UK or stay in naija and set up a business to augment my salary. I will be 34 years next year, I feel traveling to the uk for studies next year September will delay my chances of getting married, as I have planned not exceeding 34 years without getting married.

I belong to the school of thought that believes can make it in Nigeria despite all odds. However, considering the economic realities of the country, I have recently contemplating of japa and maybe get a Nigerian lady for marriage after my studies.

Please I earnestly need matured advice from you guys to know how to start the coming year.

Cc:Justwise
If you won't accumulate excessive loans to japa, I will advise you to japa IF living a better life is your primary consideration.
However, it appears money isn't your only consideration as you want to settle down as well.
This is coming from someone who has japa'ed and return to Nigeria. Here is my analysis
Pro: With UK, depending on your area of study and skillset, you have the opportunity to earn more and live a better life. It might be tough at the beginning but you will eventually be fine And even if things don't fully work out, your savings in pounds will become loads of Naira if you decide to move back. You can decide use that to invest in a business. To be honest, 200k is not a lot of money even in Nigeria. With 200k, you will hardly have any tangible savings by the end of the year, and you will basically be living from hand to mouth. You either need to start doing business or leave the country altogether to break away from the cycle of low income.
Con: You want to get married. To be honest, it is best when married couples stay together at least for the first 3 years of their marriage to know and understand themselves better. It is now impossible to bring your spouse to UK if you plan to do a non-research based Masters program. Long distance marriage, especially at the start is a NO NO. I speak from the experience of others. I also believe it is better to first live with your spouse in Nigeria before both moving abroad.

It all depends on what is more important to you. Money or marriage.

casualobserver:


when you think foreign accent is a thing of pride or a subject to consume your discussions and aspirations, have already lost the race before it started. For example, many Nigerian artistes tried to imitate foreigners before the advent of Afrobeat, they all flopped!!! it is only when Nigerian artistes started to be themselves and sing in their unique African way that the world embraced them. You cannot be more oyinbo than the oyinbo man, you have nothing to offer if what you are selling is not authentic but a copy. So be yourself, be proud of yourself, your accent, your culture and your heritage, stop giving yourselves foreign names or speaking in fake foreign accents or projecting foreign as superior, you are subconsciously telling yourself that you and your own are inferior and not good enough. if you reject yourself, others will reject you.

there is no Nigerian artiste who has made in on the international stage with a foreign accent....remember that. Sunny Ade, Fela etc all sang in their Nigerian accents and projected their Nigerianness. And before you mention Sade Adu and the likes of SEAL, they were all raised abroad and are only Nigerian in name.
Thanks for your explanation, I largely agree with you. However there are exceptions. For instance, have you lived abroad? If you have lived abroad and you don’t try to adjust your natural Nigerian accent to blend in, you would find out that many people will find it hard to hear you which can severely impede communication and in some cases limit your career opportunities.
Sometimes it is not inferiority complex. it is just a good social skill that can open doors for you, professionally and personally particularly if you are abroad.

Anyway, can someone with 4.15 Cgpa be consider for admission and funding?
4.15 is solid, especially if you study a STEM course. You need a good GRE score, solid SOP. You also need to start doing research to target some certain universities and reach out to the profs. If you need guidance, lemme know,

Why didn’t you finish with a good CGPA? You guys will finish with weak CGPAs and then start asking these kind of obvious questions.

You ask yourself - Do you stand a chance competing with others with better CGPAs?

You can always attempt. Put in a good SOP explaining why your CGPA was weak, and also demonstrate that you have what it takes to embark on a research study. You can use past examples. Your chances are extremely low but not inexistent.

I have lived in both countries.
The United States of America remains the best destination for both the singles and family structured and for any human being on earth including the animals. The US brings out the best in you even when you have nothing to offer. That's the only country on earth you can wear slippers to visit & leave wearing Timberland

The country is structured to make you successful.
The jobs opportunities in America can confuse you for years, as one would be confused where to specialize.
The only country even when you don't have papers you are not embarrassed or castigated, rather you are encouraged to get such. In the United States you rarely fear deportation. You would have committed one of their worst crimes for deportation to be revisited.
