Secondly, if you marry that guy there is 85% probability that you will not last with him cos you have already condemned him publicly even before saying yes and after marriage, you will see a handsome guy and wished you never went to the alter. |

I am in uk studying msc, the world global crisis is affecting the industries now. i will adivice once again to get the contract job so u can stand out from the crowd of no experience job seekers.
Just give urself time for the contract job, if it is two yrs u want to work good then u can come back for the masters. if u r worried abt ur tuition fee, u can ask ur dad to pay the fee now then u tell the institution u want to defer ur admission for 2yrs. Cool response jare.
@vodkat vodkat (on the first page) actually brought me the first relief as I was already upset on the first set of responses advising you to 'take the master's'. RUBBISH 
I am a leaving witness cos currently, I earn the same with my graduate colleagues even though I am yet to get my BA. This has been happening to me anywhere I go cos they look at my ability, years of work experience, position at each office and recommendation.
GO AND GET THE JOB! Do you think it is easy to secure one even with your phd without years of work experience? |

[quote author=~Sissy~ link=topic=259456.msg3703998#msg3703998 date=1239167906]divorces happen because of so many differences that's are irreconcilable between the parties involved. i think mostly it wasn't mean to be in the first place, cox i personally believe that a marriage rooted in God's vineyard will last no matter the obstacles the couple will face. and with so many instantaneous drive through marriages happening, i would say people marry out of so many wrong reasons and have wild expectations, so when those reasons and wild expectations are unmet, they seek the divorce route. some folks are just immature and irresponsible to be married in the first place therefore, they cant handle martial problems.[/quote] Well said Sissy!brein: @Topic. Còñtäct a qualified Pastor for more detail. A pastor won't tell you more than this. He will only add the fact that both of you should be born again and understand each other. Some pastors even mislead by match-making the wrong people e.g persons of same pry and sec temperament, just cos they are desperate and at last they won't be able to cope.[quote author=Ladyange_A link=topic=259456.msg3704500#msg3704500 date=1239182478]Some men hide their real character in order to get a lady once they succeed in having you they show their true colours some of which the lady can't just take and hence it leads to divorce.[/quote] This is true but vice versa. Vigilance, time and closeness could go a long way in eradicating this (although Christianity forbids closeness) . |

[quote author=~Sissy~ link=topic=259510.msg3704435#msg3704435 date=1239181571]i think what the doctor said is your best option. continue taking the anti retroviral drugs, dont miss a day and eat healthy, vegetables, fruits etc, also try not to get stressed out cause it will definitely have an impact on your immune system. you have to make sure your CDC is above 200. and depending on high it gets to the average of most normal people, the doctor may take you off it (AR drugs).
please dear, taking your life isn't and will never be the answer to the problem, yea, most people go through tough time with such news, but it is not the end of life. remember HIV is not a death sentence, and most people get through it. don't let it overcome you. you have HIV, HIV doesn't have you (keep that in mind and be strong) be prayerful, if possible go for counseling. also make sure your husband is also taking his own drugs, especially if you are still intimate with him, cox it serves you no good taking the drugs while he isn't and you still sleep with him.
Best of Luck[/quote]Good info + avoid mosquito bites cos it aggravates it. Remember to always have your drug close to you anywhere you go and it is most effective when you take it at a consistent time wherever the time meets you. Ensure you take to you doctor's prescriptions and join an NGO where you will get more info and supports from experts. Both of you should never be depressed as a result of the ailment, instead be happy at all times just like before.
An HIV positive person who takes his drug perfectly is as healthy as an HIV negative person. It doesn't show on the face. HIV is not as deadly as it was initially publicized in Africa, malaria kills faster than it.
Take good care of yourself and husband and care for the baby when it arrives. |

Quote from: reality4us It is a normal practise in many places. I know that if you have been living with a woman no matter how long and have children with her, if she dies you must come to pay for her bride price before ever attempting to bury her. By so doing it is now accepted that she was your wife and not a concubine.
@Baro I concur! Tradition should never be undermined, so long it's not barbaric Didn't you read the post that he was not allowed to marry her?. |

StatCounter - Free Web Tracker and Counter blog counter Obama to visit Nigeria Friday - As he begins 5-nation tour; arrives London for G20 summit
By Edekyn Ilofuan - 01.04.2009
UNITED States president, Barack Obama, will visit Nigeria on Friday as part of his five-nation tour which will last eight days.
The 47-year-old who was elected the first black president of the US is expected to arrive Abuja, Nigeria’s seat of power at about 3.45pm on Friday, according to White House spokesman, Robert Gibbs.
Obama, who arrived London on Tuesday with an entorage numbering over 500 to attend the G20 summit is also due to visit four other countries, including Turkey and France.
A White House press released made available to Nigerian Tribune indicated that Obama will hold a meeting with his Nigerian counterpart, President President Yar A’dua at the State House shortly after his arrival.
Top on the agenda of their proposed meeting are global economic crisis and bilateral relations, with emphasis on trade. They are also to discuss the continued unrest in Darfur and by extention the Niger Delta.
Obama accompanied by his wife, Michelle, will depart for the United States Information Centre, Lagos, where the he will commission a new library complex dedicated to the legendary Martin Luther King Jr. He is also expected to visit the Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akinolu.
The released added that Obama and his wife will be honoured with chieftaincy titles by the Oba.
Before leaving for Lagos, the US first lady, according to the release, will visit an unnamed motherless home in Abuja, which islikely to be named after her. She is particularly known to have high regard for moral values in the family. She once said White House staff should not make her children’s bed, claiming her children must continue to make their beds as was the case before they moved into the White House.
The son of a Kenyan father rose to become the first African-American president of the US in a keenly contested presidential election which was conducted on 4 November. He was sworn in an historic occasion that was watched by billions of people worldwide.
The world’s First Couple will depart Nigeria for Russia on Saturday. Stories like this are cute ways of making you feel the season of April Fool’s Day.
So, enjoy it while it lasted.
Happy April Fool’s Day I got this mail . |

Family › Re: My Husband Slapped Me Twice And Now He's Not Talking To Me by oluwdashmi(f): 11:40am On Mar 27, 2009 |
dellynash: Naijacutee this is the whole story im not hiding anything from you, This man use to be so nice when we were dating, honestly i use to like handsome men he is not handsome but his nice, caring and loving attitude attracted me to him, when we got married he started changing he will hardly even call me honey as he use to do, he will call my by my name carelessly without any respect, he hardly even say he is sorry when he wrongs me, his heart is just so stiff. I have just been trying to support him cos i believe marriage is for better, for worse, can u imagine we quarrel even on bed during love making cos he thinks only of his own satisfaction, when i say honey i would like but this style he will tell me ah don't disturb me im tired. So i keep wondering if i can hold onto the marriage for life. If truly this is the whole story, then quitting isn't the next answer but prayer. I also think the manner at which you said it might be wrong although that shouldn't have warranted that slap even in your condition but there is nothing God cannot do. Pray that God restore your first love in his heart and build your home the way you want it cos marriage is not something you rush in and out of. |

naijacutee: I don't know what to say, and I'm struggling to understand why a grown man would slap a woman for something as trifle as taking his bath. And also not talk to you for 3 days. When you're pregnant! I'm really struggling. . . Is this the whole story or is this the "short version"? [quote author=Tinkin_guy link=topic=254174.msg3649430#msg3649430 date=1238148725]@ Poster, Some information is definitly missing from your story, that your hobby spalled you and refuse to talk to you for 3 days now, and even stopped giving you food money just cox you asked him why he's sleeping without taken his bath        ?. What is it that is preventing you from saying sorry and the that thing is also pushing you to terminate your pregrancy  ? Haba woman. you can do better than this your wide story. How long did you date this man and how long have you been in your marriage with him that you just discovered he's very stiff neck  ?? When you tell us the whole truth and really need good advise, you will definitly get one. Don't decive your self.[/quote] What else will I say? You two have said it all. There is a particular aspect of that story that is hidden. |
