deols: I have cousins whom I think have that identity crisis. They grew up as Yorubas but their father is not.

People going into these kinds of marriages should know what to expect and if they can deal with them should go ahead.

Allah knows. .
That is the basic. Know what you are going to and understand there would be challenges(all marriages do have).

May God help us all but don't jump into what you can't cope with it.

Even if it is that identity thing alone it would have been better but i have seen where the husband told the wife to always communicate in English when calling her folks and cases were the women are always suspicious of their husbands just because they are left out of a discussion with the husbands family members due to inability to speak same language.

, Communication means alot and i would advise anyone going into an inter tribal marriage to learn each others' language. Makes things a lot easier.

Let me just chip this in. Truth is to each his own beliefs and ideals.


I have seen and have very close relatives who have done the inter tribal or even country marriages but the bottomline is you need lots of sacrifices and hardwork to make it work.

Marriages are more than just the couples alone and many things do come up from their respective families.


There's always that question of identity of the kids and the man may not be too concerned but the lady might be scared of losing one her identity and that of her kids.
Let's be realistic, even if the couple are ready to make things work there is always someone, somewhere in each of the families who would want to scuttle things and make it hard for them. If you can bypass this, then goodluck.

Before anyone goes into one please settle tihings like the identity of the kids so that no one feels cheated along the way, does the whole family agree and appreciate the choice the two are making and other things. Not discouraging anyone just giving an heads up. Marriage is enough problem not to talk of adding that cultural pressure to it.

Please I need urgent assistance

The last time someone used this Mini CPU (Dell Optiplex) was on Monday. Today I tried to switch it on only for me to hear strange sounds ("3 beeps"wink.

The cpu failed to boot and the screen is just blank, even though I was able to eject the CD-ROM from the button.


The only thing I noticed on this system before now was the fake windows7 installed, which I've used for almost 6months.


Pls help, I'm just so confused right now. I don't want to loose the documents on this computer.
Formatting is the last thing on my mind. sad sad
3 beeps for a system should mean the ram or so. check your ram.

Kanwulia: It is better to be respected than loved. The only thing she owes the family members is respect! If she cannot practice that, she becomes A MATRIMONIAL FAILURE!!! kiss

She does not have to LOVE OR LIKE THEM and vice versa! kiss

In marriage, you LEARN to be the greatest AMBASSADOR, DIPLOMAT, PSYCHOLOGIST AND POLITICIAN.

All the above DO NOT REQUIRE BEING LIKED OR LOVED!!!!

The world does not revolve around "her royal highness'! She needs to grow up! kiss

dibass: I have two problems to talk about.
I am registering JAMB, but I can't see some Universities on the list on JAMB website. particularly ABU Zaria and MAUTECH Yola. And a lot of students in the North go for these schools. I hope you will help me out of this confusion. My second problem is still with JAMB. I downloaded their offline finger-print software(64-bit, with it's run time environment, but I can't 'transfer' successfully after installing the software. I tried 32-bit operating system, but I still have the same result. My computer is windows 8 HP Compaq CQ58, and is a 64-bit operating system.
You will do well by contacting jamb directly.

On the software issue, windows xp has been known as the best os to install them on. Try it on it.

[quote author=Incredible.me]pls cn someone profer sollution to this? I really need help.[/quote]Wait are you sure the system has bluetooth?

if yes
follow this

Make sure your Bluetooth device is turned on.

Sometimes you can simply flip a switch. Other devices make you hold down a button until its little light begins flashing.

From the Start screen, fetch the Charms bar, click the Settings icon, and click the Change PC Settings button.

You can summon the Charms bar’s Settings pane in any of three ways:

Mouse: Point the cursor at the screen’s top- or bottom-right corner; when the Charms bar appears, click the Settings icon, and then click the Change PC Settings button.

Keyboard: Press Windows+I and press Enter.

Touchscreen: Slide your finger from the screen’s right edge inward, tap the Settings icon, and then tap Change PC Settings.

From the Devices category, click the Add a Device icon.

The PC Settings’ Devices pane appears, listing all your connected devices. Your computer quickly begins searching for any nearby Bluetooth devices that want to connect.

If your device doesn’t appear, head back to Step 1 and make sure your Bluetooth gadget is still turned on. (Many give up and turn off after 30 seconds of waiting to connect.)

When your computer lists your device’s name in the Devices pane, choose the name with a tap or mouse click.

Type in your device’s code if necessary and, if asked, click the Pair button.

Here’s where things get sticky. For security reasons, you need to prove that you’re sitting in front of your own computer and that you’re not an adjacent stranger trying to break in. Unfortunately, devices employ slightly different tactics when making you prove your innocence.

Sometimes you need to type a secret string of numbers called a passcode into both the device and your computer. (The secret code is usually hidden somewhere in your device’s manual.) But you need to type quickly before the other gadget stops waiting.

On some gadgets, particularly Bluetooth mice, you hold in a little push button on the mouse’s belly at this step.

Change your cdrom drive> The lens is weak or bad.

You might try cleaning the lens with a soft damp cloth and see if it works. But ultimately you need a new cd rom.

bukatyne: Since we have learnt that a husband dumps his loud mouthed wife in thr gathrring of her inlaws,

What does a wife with a loud mouthed husband do?

I will appreciate practical answers.

Who knows, someone may benefit from it
Maybe when a woman comes here and complain that her husbad has a loud mouth we ould give practical answers. Until then we would face the practical example we have here.

Mind you . No one agrees totally that what the man did is right. I do agree its kind of extreme but we dont really know options he has exhuasted just to get his wife to the talking table. He has turn her back, what happens after is my main concern and would justify his actions.

Does she change and agree to talk things through in a calm manner anytime they have a disagreement?

Would the action help them live as a better couple?

Those are what am concerned about.

grin

The bible refers to the men that put their hands in the plough and look back as what? I am not covering up evil but stewpeedity pisses me off.i thought they call that over hyped institution for better for worse.there is no marriage devoid of crisis and lapses from both parties but solving the issue in extreme measures solves nothing.for example if mr husband is down with cancer,the woman should run back to her parents and say i dont know how to care for a cancer patient,i cant cope and flees with her kids abi.is it not that the woman will go to any extent to ensure the man gets back to his normal self.no woman shouts and yells for nothing.it means there is something the man is doing that is paining her and its juat the way she can express what is paining her.why cant the man listen between the lines of her shouting and make necessary changes.
thank Goodness you now agree theres a problem. How then do you solve it when the two cant communicate?

. Yelling and shouting is not communication. From This case,the man wants an amicable resolution but how do you get it when she screams her eyes out? Tell me . How?

yellowpawpaw: Bla bla bla doesn't solve a problem, stubborness doesn't pay, bad mouth doesn't make u smart. Use ur head and still get what u want from ur man 100%
A lot of women indirectly controls the affairs of their house simply becos they bend low. Most of these big shots we hv r married and glued to their wives. Wives indirectly control them but we wouldn't know. Its not achieved by razor mouth, but simply applying wisdom.

Nawaa o, I do dey fear our gals. What is really happening?
Most ladies dont understand that simple secret. A man always has a soft spot, discover this and he would answer to your whims and caprices.

The yorubas have a simple saying that your bulkiness or largeness does not open a door ,its someone with the key that unlocks the door. Its that simple. You dont need to shout , huff and puff before you get what you want. Wisdom is the key.

And before the feminists pound on me am not saying you should go pandering but use your wisdom. There is a reason God gave you that brain . Use it.

[quote author=Efemena_xy]The issue here isn't about the woman getting fed up with the man's mode of communication. It's the other way round.

And it's not about being seen and not heard. I'm talking about decorum - ever heard that word? A woman doesn't have to shout and rave to get her point across. Infact, that would only set her husband's back up against her and even if he did agree or was prone to agreeing with her points, the fact that she put them across so disrespectfully is enough for him to kick against them or block his ears to reason.

Men have pride too you know. Besides a smart woman knows how to get the impossible from her man without ever having to raise her voice. Ask the men around here and let's see who'll agree that his woman / wife / girlfriend succeeds in getting what she wants from them by shouting and yelling at them.

Kulyie, when something's bad, admit it. Stop covering up crass and uncouth behaviour in blind and quite frankly, mis-directed feminine support. It is rude to yell and shout at another human being - kids, your mates, friends, parents and moreso, your husband![/quote]abi.... why do you have to yell when am not deaf? Even doing it to the point that neigbours now know whenever there is a disagreement.

People have been saying "sit her down " "sit her down"

How do you communicate and resolve issues if she wont allow you even talk without shouting?

Abeg sending her back home is good perharps she would listen to her parents since she cant be talked to by her partner.

Life does suck sometimes. But just try to take the positives out of any situation.

Not only good people do bad things happen to; but everyone. It just depends on how you take things an move on with hope and faith in your heart that you can turn things around for the better.
