You just exposed ur bro secret. Funny revelation though!

Don't worry. He's not on NL. And he's so much older now

Devil's box......d rejected stone has become d cornerstone....television evangelism now d in-thing! I heard d story of a man who joined Deeper Life n began distributing his "devil's property" (tv, radio, jewelry, carvings, paintings, even clothes) to his neighbors n friends. But a few years down d line, he got reborn again, saw another light n began asking for his property back. Of course no one obliged him. Some out rightly denied collecting anything from him sef. Too much religiousity is unhealthy!

Men also cry! An highly emotional situation can move a guy to cry....nth unusual in that! Crying is a natural human reaction....why do we associate it to only women or see it as a weakness in men? This is why many men bottle up their emotions n then turn mean, heartless n wicked!
Back to op, I have witnessed such cases of rejection concerning my brothers. I see them laugh it off or start dissing d girl or vow to date her friend to spite her! They would huff n puff and they never cried, at least not in public. Then one day I caught one of my brothers locked up in his room, crying while reading a "Dear John" letter he had just received. I was moved with pity for him but to my surprise, by d time he came out, he was all bravado, bragging to his other brothers. I simply looked on in amazement.....who's fooling who! His secret is still safe with me though

That is a guy who sees his wife as his meal ticket. What a condition for reconciliation. Better tell yr friend she doesn't have a husband oh! Unless there's more to d story than she's letting on...otherwise that man has some sinister ulterior motives to his request.

It shows she's a good designer but it's not my ideal design for a home.....d colour theme doesn't do it for me either. I like big spaces n bright lively colours. But it's her home, her style, her taste. I think she will be able to satisfy her clients' varied requirements.

Some practical tips we give:
- as u enter n sit down, take some deep breaths to calm yr nerves. Sit upright, don't slouch on d chair, keep yr hands off d table
- scan d faces of d panel (interviewers)
- listen carefully to d question u are being asked......look directly at d person asking d questions
- don't rush to answer.....think of yr answer before replying (except its a straight forward question)
- answer only d question put to u, don't be verbose
- for self confidence, maintain eye contact. When u feel flustered, don't fidget or bow yr head....u may lower yr gaze but keep yr head up at all times.

Above all, start practicing your composure now.....Use yr mirror n family members or friends. By d time u get an interview, u would have mastered what works for u. I wish u good luck.

I'm still confused about what this Patience thinks her role is? She summons govt officials, party officials n private individuals at will. She has carried d next elections on her head, going around trying to impose candidates n influence voters. She went to Oyo state n told d pdp leaders there that they should support Ladoja because none of them can win elections anyway.
Now she's in Rivers state.....Abia state is her next destination. Na wa for this woman oh.....overstepping her boundary unchallenged.
My humble submission

Op I didn't bother to read yr long epistle......n u are right....they are all fantasies
See commandments longer than d ones in Deuteronomy sef!
My humble submission

Awwww....they remind me of my five brothers. Hope they are not rascally like their dad. I already see mischievousness on d faces of two of them
My humble submission

So will d notes be distributed to every household to use for d celebration or what?
Typical GEJ.......Nonsensical
My humble submission

I don't think suffering defines a good African wife. Yes our culture depicts a good wife as that one who can do all those chores among other things but modern women still get d same tasks done with their gadgets. Our husbands too are moving with d times as some of them buy these gadgets for their homes. Now that wives are expected to also work n contribute to d family expenses, any help she can get with house chores is welcome.
My humble submission

Oh, so d forms are now available kwo. Funny people....hope Mr Tafawa Balewa n Mrs Duke Abiola will not fall for this trick. Just ask for yr refund because GEJ has already been programmed to win at d convention. Any other contender is wasting time, effort n money. Imagine that inept clueless drunk daring to attempt re-election! Shame

Dem don network my dullness. so since den if I drop @ Obalende en, na to jog my way to where I go enter oworo bus o.

this cracked me up. I apologise for your travail

Women are natural born teachers by creation....God made it so. Therefore I would think when a woman chooses teaching as a profession, she would excel in it better than her male counterparts given her natural gift of teaching, coaching n counseling. But having said this, it doesn't mean all women can teach in a classroom because several other factors come into play. I personally preferred the male teachers in my sec school simply because they were gentler on us than d female ones who we thought were too strict for our liking. My Maths/Physics teacher in form 3 (a male) made me start taking a deeper interest in those subjects till I mastered n excelled in them. Within a short period, I switched from Arts to Science oriented.

Thanks aisha2 for this, I've been reading up on the pros and cons of epidural and its definitely something I would consider, but I will wait till the pain becomes unbearable before asking for it to be administered.

If my memory serves me well, I think epidural needs to be administered before d pain "becomes unbearable" ooo......infact before d pain begins at all.......there's a specific period when u will be told it's too late to get it. But I stand to be corrected.

Back to op, I think women issues have evolved over time to where a woman can now decide what n how she chooses to get pregnant, carry or not carry d pregnancy, how delivery is carried out, etc. From IVF to surrogacy to gestational carrier.....d choices are getting more interesting by d day. I hear nowadays more women are opting for CS rather than go through d hassles of labour n natural delivery. it's her baby, it's her body.....The most important thing is having a healthy baby and happy mother at d end of d process!

Actually it is ideal to speak a language with d accent of d owners if u can achieve it. I mean think about how yr language sounds when a non indigene speaks it with his own native accent...imagine that thick Igbo accent and d Ekiti flavour in spoken English or when some Yorubas speak Hausa ....not nice on d ears!
My grouse is when u are forcing d accent....arrrrggghhh. If u can't do it well, then quit trying n stop making a fool of yourself

Initially love n passion for each other. Over time that matured into understanding, perseverance, trust n being able to forgive each other. Above all that, Patience n determination to stay together....not forgetting the grace of God.

Osita, I like yr spirit, don't mind haters. Afterall it's golf not b'ball.
Be careful how u swing that club tho.....I hope u are using a boy's set? See u on d course!
My humble submission

Who is this hungry clownish jobless comrade pretending to represent yoruba youths? What has any nigerian youth benefitted from this so called president? U want to carry placards, so u can be noticed n rewarded handsomely, kwo? Heavy rainstorm must disrupt that evil plan IJN. U better congregate in Abuja if u don't want to be lynched
See GEJ's legacy for our youths!

Ladies please don't go cooking.Cooking doen't guarantee that he'll marry you. If you cook & do laundry & play the role of a wife, if the relationship doesn't work out in the end it means you gonna feel very hurt & used.If he wonna taste my cooking, I can do it at my place, because I know men wonna know if their women can cook before popping the big question.It shouldn't be an expectation though,I cook coz I want to and under odd circumstsnces such as sickness.However, I promised myself to never be found in a man's kitchen,cooking for him if am not his wife.Boyfriends are not supposed to be enjoying husband privileges.That's why they are just boyfriends.After all,If one is freely getting milk,why buy the cow anyway?#Ladieslearn.

I agree! These same men expecting a gf to cook for them on another thread will vow not to do certain things for a gf simply because she's not his wife.....hypocrisy or male chauvinism!
When he proposes, then he can expect wifely treatment! Dating n marriage is not d same thing oh
My humble submission

Olaone1:
Cool! Since you said he is a "waka come waka go". I have one who also abides by the same T&C you stated

Precisely! Communication is very essential in relationships....each person knows from d get-go what to expect, what s/he can give and each other's limitations. But some dickhead can't comprehend that!
My humble submission

Interesting topic. Methinks it depends on d lady. I never cooked for my bfs, I never saw d need to visit him n start cooking....for what naa...that isn't in d T&Cs of our relationship. When we are hungry we go out to eat or just nibble on snacks around his house. When he visits me, same thing. It used to amuse me when I see my friends cooking, cleaning n doing laundry for a bf! And then after some months, d affair is all over, so what was d essence of all that labour of "love"? It's more rewarding cooking for my husband n kids.....taking good care of my family, not slaving for a "waka come waka go"

This man is sick, sick, sick.....stolen loot and dope are killing him slowly yet he won't rest- nemesis! Let him not collapse at one of their rallies oh. Ojuyobo ole!
My humble submission

Oh I didn't realise there's an exception clause in d FOI bill......hmmm Nigeria!
Condolences Media rights group but hey Stella has moved on, d cars are somewhere n d whole issue long swept under d carpet.....another rogue story stuck between d pages! It's ordinary stealing not corruption - GEJ
My humble submission

Mr SP sir, I'm so sorry I cannot believe this statement credited to u.....u cannot and will not DIE for Nigeria...u are one person that lives life to d full, u certainly don't want to die! It's because GEJ is running again, otherwise u had shown interest in succeeding him.... u are only bidding yr time, so continue in d senate perhaps remain as Senate President n even the first Governor of your proposed Akpa State. Your people want u back indeed.....didn't u almost lose d court case challenging your last election but for money changing hands at d last minute? Which lga chairmen bought d nomination form for u....oh, u mean u gave them money to go buy d form? We know what happened at d golf tourney held on yr golf course in Oturkpo last weekend. U may fool Nigerians but not Idoma pple!
My humble submission

I'm so relieved Fashola won't be running with this man because no matter how hard Buhari tries to distance himself from the toga of "religious extremist", we still remember his erstwhile utterances n body language that were unambiguously anti-Christian. For this singular reason he won't get my vote....I prefer Kwakwanso, if all else fails! A ticket of Muslim-Muslim or otherwise will not work in today's Nigeria...we are no longer in 1993!
My humble submission

Resign ke? A Naija politician? It ain't gonna happen. Where is d precedent? To me pdp=apc.....six and half a dozen, same old same old.
But hey I'm just an innocent observer, intently watching all these pre-election drama
My humble submission

Op if u must know, many women are earning their pay n can help out if such situation arises. But can our ego tripping, arrogant, chauvinistic men take it? Many Naija men are too egoistic to depend on their wives oh.....they become touchy n defensive for no just cause....emotional n verbal abuse then ensues.....God help the sista! The only way to have peace is for d woman to deposit all her monthly earnings into his account n allow him do d spending
My humble submission

darqly:
Let me digress a little-
Here, you contradict yourself. You claim Fashola succeeds in Lagos ONLY because of the resources at his disposal, but there's little he can do as president, where he has access to far more resources?? It goes without saying that if you're faithful in little, you'd be faithful in much. Lastly, by whatever indices performance is gauged, Fashola has acquitted himself decently at state level. This is much more than can be said for a host of other governors and even the president.

Well said!

GEJ looks different without his hat....I initially thot he is one of d security details
So he had to travel for special prayers after Pastor Adeboye refused to pray for him....or so I read! And he's praying for what......how to rig d elections or how to deceive Nigerians once more with stories that touch?
God will not answer any prayers that seek to laden Nigerians perpetually with inept leadership, mismanagement n corruption IJN.
My humble submission

Besides Jesus, the stories that touch are Mary's, David's, Ruth's, Hannah's. Whatever God has destined for u will become yours in spite of any obstacle or challenge u face. He whom God blesses remains blessed.
