abegi sorry oo ma. i've learned that it is not good to annoy a woman with a very big yansh. my apologies

SA Goddess I see you are refusing to let this topic die. So many off topic posts and discussions I don't even know what the thread is about anymore.

ask Zimbabwe

culled from the internet:

WHAT IS REALLY ATTRACTIVE TO MEN:
–full skirts and tiny waists


–clothes that are in fashion, but not avant-garde (over the top/ couture etc); men follow the fashion trends more than you may realize, and even the Wall Street Journal prints articles about fashion.

–almost any shade of blue; white; very pale and very dark grey; certain men hate to see their wives in black; others adore it.

–perfume- but modern men appreciate lighter perfumes than their fathers did, subtle sophisticated blends rather than the simpler scents.

–collars on suits and coats. (if you don't have a collar on your coat, wear a nice scarf)



WHAT MEN THINK THEY LIKE:
(but only in the movies)
–revealingly tight skirts and aggressively pointed bosom
(doesn't need a pic. you get the idea)

–false eyelashes

–spike heels.

In short, men enjoy being envied, but they hate feeling conspicuous. And they particularly dislike vulgarity in the women they admire.”

What's the best thing for dark under eye shadow? i don't like concealer. I'm using the cucumber trick, that's not really working.

Finding your personal style:

Colors fall into two categories: Warm and Cool.
Pick one that suits your skin best and stick with it!!!! Don't jump too much all over the place. Colors are part of your personal style
When you pick a category, choose a few of the colors within in and make them your staple colors. think about the colors you get complimented most on and keep it in mind when you go shopping.

Cool Colors

Keep in mind that the quality of your post will influence how this thread turns out. If you want good information, make sure to post good information.
I will try to keep a tab to help readers sort through posts etc.

Norwegian. . . just kidding. lol
i don't know.

syke80:
gush as a star in Hollywood, you would be crucified for that single error, Re-branding advice for Omotola is in order.

it was a radio show.
if it were a tv show, they would have been more on guard about their physical appearance.

besides, should we be crucifying our female tv stars for simple "errors"?
i'm sure if they were "perfect" like hollywood stars (perfect = botox, plastic surgery, extreme diets to stay skinny etc) we will still be complaining.

shilling:

No offence to Omotola's fans, but you can clearly see who's the global one and who the local champion is.

what is wrong with local?
we should learn something from bollywood. the star of slum dog millionaire couldn't get acting jobs in india because she was not local enough for their taste. Imagine if that was in Nigeria, we would have been worshiping her for being on american tv.

now I understand that the fake accents, style etc in nollywood is all in the name of going global.
let's see how far that will take us.

Imagine that. . . . . . .but yeah, somebody needs to pick up a burger and supersize 'em fries with bottomless soda Grin Grin Grin Grin

Aspiring model, perhaps? Cool Cool Cool actually thought it was Oluchi before the bust augmentation Grin Grin Grin

SAgoddesss you are not serious. you want my yansh to balloon up like urs hehn?

go ladies!!
although I am partial to omotola 

who is the third lady? is she an actress too?

D-sense:

U just acted like one of em  . . . .Who am I ?pls mind your speech or text!!

no comment.

davidylan:

can i apply? 

pastor david? despite that pretty lady that was in your profile for a while. oga o 


@mrbrownjay,
you are one crazy person. I still cannot stand to believe you are a Nigerian. anyways, c'est ta vie apres tout lol

this is the most important part:

Let us still be friends.  Keep your phone lines open and let us keep talking.  Everything that looks impossible today would fade into nothingness tomorrow.  Don't close the door.  And even if you want to close the door, let us do it as friends!

He has given you the permission to leave if you want to. Just be friends with him. Who knows you may even redevelop your feelings for him and if you don't, at least u know you have a friend.
case closed.

do i look like someone who has time for your "personal affairs"? who are you?
lol I laugh in pidgin.

MRbrownJAY:

^^^^^hey Hassan, I dont know if she will go back there during January but she goes to the UK very often (at least 6/7times a yr) so i can send her your pic. . . . . . . if you like?

but remember, she aint into no drama so, as your facebook account says you in a relationship, you may want to rethink or be very discreet!

MRbrownJAY:

^^^^bro, by the look of your website, you aint "really" eligible either. . . . . . . .  unless you wanna go down that route before your big day. but hey i got your pic and can send it to her if you feel you got what it takes?!

MrBrownJay,
why are you encouraging these dudes when you know they are in r/s. and one is heading for the alter soon?   (in fact I will make sure I track that fiance of his down and let her know about this thread esp. since I complimented him a while ago without knowing this much).
besides, this thread is so crass but then you are MrBrownJay (the king of crass) what can I say?

I think there are sex soliciting websites around why not take it there? This is the most overt sex solicitation i've seen so far on NL.
And if your czech friend is so hot or wants it desperately, she shouldn't have any problems. Tell her to go on visits to Peckham. I heard that that's where majority of nigerians live. She shouldn't have problems there. After several trial and error, she will find the right "friend" for herself.

no sex soliciting on NL plz, let's keep it clean or behind close doors at least. lol

^^^ and you tell that thing in your profile to head to

Sisimmi, from what I have read, you two are not on the same page at all!

you are breaking up with him because of mistrust and infidelity issues.
On the other hand, he thinks you're breaking up with him because he is poor.

I think you should sit him down and tell him the truth. You should have told him in the following days after you found out that he hid your photos from his living room that you are losing your feelings for him. Truth is bitter but it would have saved you from all these mess.

Yea his letter was touching but he seems soo oblivious to the fact that you are mad at him for cheating on you. he doesn't mention that anywhere in his letter. Instead, he seem sorry only for what he did on "friday"

your priority now should be letting him understand why you don't want to be in the relationship and making him understand that it has more to do with his infidelity than with money.
Then help him get over you fast!!! because  you don't want him doing something dangerous like committing suicide or trying to kill you. You already said that he has anger issues.
make it clear to him that most of your feelings are gone. and then put it up to him to decide if he still wants to be with a woman who doesn't love him anymore. Obviously he must be very foolish if he still decides to stay with you after you tell him you don't love him anymore.
and make it clear to him that you lost your love for him the day you found out he was cheating. let him know that it is not because of his finances because then, it will seem like your fault and that's not true. It was really all his fault!!

I won't punish myself by being with someone I have no feelings for just because I pity them or because you have had 13 yrs together in the past. 

Yes you guys were together for 13 years but really, why cry over spilled milk? In economics, they call it "Sunk Cost" There is absolutely nothing you can do about the 13 years past so don't let it affect you psychologically. All you have to do is look forward and move on!!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunk_costs


What you should try your best to do is to remain friends with him because he does seem like a great guy. Just not right for you.

^^no fighting! Mr. Igbo and Mr. Yoruba 


@OP,
how do you envision the re-branded igbo nation? Can you pick a recognizable example from any country around the globe in these contemporary times of how you would want this ideal situation to look like?

MzDarkSkin:

lmfao! that is so messed up. come on lol. there are FAR more corrupt countries than Nigeria, Cameroon and Kenya are definitely two examples.

i meant it to be a sarcastic comment/joke. lol

honeric01:

Maybe it's because people like you have left the country, that's why we were removed from the top list of corrupt countries

lol u r not serious 

@SA Finest,

intellectual intelligence = book smart.  Do you mean social intelligence? 

either way, I disagree with you.
If SA has a very high rate of single parenthood compared to Nigeria, how does that make you better at finding a "life partner"? lol

You say that there are numerous ways to cordially let a guy down. can you plz share? The example you gave didn't help since you really didn't let him down. You jumped on the chance as soon as you found out he was a surgeon.
Can you give us an example of where you cordially let a guy down AND kept him from harassing you without you fighting him off?
That would be helpful for a lot of Nigerian women. some guys are very crazy. lol

ohaechesi:
