An insecure person is someone lacking confidence. It could be in his relationship or other issues. Confidence is a feeling or belief that you Have faith or rely On someone. Now With all your juvenile gibberish that you typed, can you understand the correlation between your partner making you feel insecure with the above stated definition that I have giving to you?
Don't be a schlepping cretin. Not all men get emotionally attached, and men react differently to emotional issues. Because you are an insecure fool does not make all men to be. Get that into your numb skull. Stop using yourself or male relatives to generalise all men. We're talking about men and beautiful ladies, not other issues. You are the ignoramus that believe a lady can make any man to become timid and lack confidence. That is a warped way to reason son.

Arindin. Last time I will have to school you, learn or go argue with someone else.

Women are litrally created for attention. That's why we do all the things we do. We also love the attention for ourselves.

If you're the type that don't want someone to notice your woman, marry hijab wearing Muslim.
Even with hijab, an insecure man will still monitor your movements. Get the drift. Plus, not all ladies likes attention. Majority yes, but not all.

If a woman give you a reason to feel insecure my dear you will feel insecure so stop this nonsense of if you are insecure person. You will catch a girl red handed cheating...lol she will still say the guy is insecure...smh
And have you made more sense with the gibberish you typed?
Do you think all men reason and react the same?
Not all women you meet in your life can make you feel insecure. You can only feel insecure if 1, you have insecurity in your personality, and 2, if you're deeply in love or obsessed with the woman.

There are girls that you will date and be well aware that they are having other affairs, but still you care less about that. So, your level of emotional attachment matters.

Somehow true.

If you're an insecure person, and you went ahead to date a beautiful woman that likes getting attention from men (which is the sad reality), just know that you're killing yourself by yourself.

Quite a piece you wrote up there . But I must confess, that your opinion has placed me on an angle to be cautious because I am highly challenged with the way you see some of us. Honestly, I hope you won't forget that we are all humans and do have flaws. So , don't see us as all in all because even you, can make a difference.

You see, as we are called to repositioned the history of Yorubas from the broken angle do we try so much to investigate the history of Yorubas from a unique angle that's different from taboos and myth but from all groups perspective that left Ileife even before or after Oranminyan descendants. In fact, the Yoruba history is too filled with myth that this myth has made many scholars wrong the history of Yorubas from misconception. Plainly the Yoruba history is the most interesting in this era!
I read where you described 'Ifa' as the ancient 'Ephod', and I think you might be right about that. I read more on it, and the description is very interesting.

Opiletool,
Esu ma sè mi Omo élo mi ni o sè is a modern Yoruba proverb in the context of archaic Yoruba language, because Esu being dented as Evil came through the written dictionary of Samuel Ajayi Crowther. In fact, Chief Ebenezer Obey, made it more popular in one of his Evergreen Album. And this is the greatest challenge for us all to right this wrong this thing. Sometimes, many people read the bible find hard to comprehend because ‘el' the mighty power create and destroys. What do you call such Almighty Powerful God? .

Esu is a name which mean savior from the angle of Early Hebrew translated books. And I am sure you are familiar with the word savior,which is an English word name for Hebrew's Esu(Jesus). Well, the personality of Jesus says of him as the power that allow good and bad on the earth .

The other interesting angle is that the name of savior Biblical Joshua-Esua,who was the first man to bore the name in the Bible. Funny enough,Joshua is an English variation of Yesua-Esua,which mean, ‘Savior'. As surprisingly it is, Yoruba history also had Esu who are two different personalities; one who lived as a man and the other personality Esu whose spirit protect or saves Yorubas.
OK.
Thank you for your time!
CultureRe: Yoruba Hebrew Heritage by Opiletool(m): 7:43pm On Jan 04, 2019
Yet people say "esu mase mi, omo elomi ni o se"
How the hell was he a saviour then?
I do not subscribe to that idea of esu being jesus. Besides not everything Yoruba must have a Hebrew equivalent. We should have some form of originality.

Benin was never an empire but a tiny godforsaken kingdom.

As for the 'Oba' title, you slow pokes should give us names of any of your ancestors that have the word 'oba' as a prefix or suffix, predating the advent of oranmiyan rulership in Benin. Your earlier rulers are known as Ogisos, until oranmiyan came to give you ridiculous lots a beffiting title.
Even those that traced their history to Ile-Ife, e.g the Kabba people of kogi, has in the name of their progenitors the prefix 'oba' and still retain it till today. Yoruba ancestors (before the birth of oranmiyan who later ruled and dumped you cretins) with the prefix Oba included in their names are numerous to mention, compared to the benins that can not provide anyone with such names.

No one should quote me without providing those names.
