bukatyne: Sorry but I don't believe you; waters have passed under the bridge angry embarassed

A lot of women are not feminists; opportunities more like it.

It is common in our society, we try to take advantage of people who respect us or are meek

I still do not grasp the reasoning that a woman should be rude because she sees herself as a man's equal

Infact, sometimes when I do something wrong to my bobo, God would ask me if I would like it if he did such to me cheesy

Anyways, whatever rocks each person's boat

The prohibitive cost of the world cup still affects everyone...

Having host cities that will just host 2 matches is outmoded and is still not a pocket friendly to the paying fans

This works well in european cities which have excellent infrastructure but in big countries like the States or developing countries, a NO NO

Lets look at the USA 94 team

Cost of following Nigeria in the group stages

Nigeria 3–0 Bulgaria Cotton Bowl, Dallas
Argentina 2–1 Nigeria Foxboro Stadium, Foxborough, MA
Greece 0–2 Nigeria Foxboro Stadium, Foxborough, MA



Conservative costs

Costs go up.. a 100 dollar will be like 200 dollars in the summer..

Shelling out at 200 a night for like 8 nights = 1600 usd
A three hour flight from Dallas to MA will be like 350- 500 usd.. some can be as much as 600 usd

This does not include road trip costs.. this is even an exceptional case as we played the last two matches in the same city and even the match with Italy there

Brazil is even worse.. thats why ive decided to stay home and watch it.. the tentative budget is killing...

Dis Guy: what about fans in the other parts of the coutry, especially as their tax money is also being used!

@roselynbas

are u saying men are dogs

And for those insinuating that it takes provocation before men come after you, you obviously don't have sisters and females in your family. If you like wear a garri bag, they will still come after you. After all, dogs will be dogs!!!

bukatyne: I am not a lady who believes she is equal to men and still have entitlement mentality.

I like to earn my respect and dues because they are not lying around anywhere

Like I said, I do not grasp the concept of divorce settlement
nice one..you have my respect with this...... maybe this your verson of feminism can really work after all....

I dont get the warped universe where the OP is from... u cheat on ur husband and yet she is paid off....?!

sepp is yarning crap

He is in charge of a world cup that forces host countries to develop 10 stadia that will only be marginally utilised post event
Does he think its only stadia that is required in this large country where cities are far flung- airports, trains, roads, hotels and security

They should reduce the number of cities to 4 or 6 so that fans in those citties can have a superb experience

The same thing will happen in Russia n Qatar where the cost of following your team will be prohibitive

What if she initiated the divorce due to spousal abuse or infidelity

[quote author=I dey Vex!]@ OP: I will tell you my story and you are free to take my advice or not. It is similar to yours. I got married a few months ago and right from the word go, my wife never wanted any of my family members to come close. My mom, dad and siblings stayed in my house for a week during the wedding preparations and she treated them like dirt. Then my bro had an accomodation problem and had to stay in my house for about 2 weeks and she gave him the same treatment.

Eventually, I realized what it was. I was too soft on her and she was taking it for granted. Like every woman, she wanted total control and she felt my family members' presence would prevent that. I come from a family where FAMILY is never taken for granted.

One day, she messed up with my bro and against my principles of never raising my hand against a woman, I gave her a very solid slap. She was shocked. She came to retaliate and I gave her another. I cowed her to submission. Now we have an improved relationship. She now respects me and knows that I can be a beast if I choose to. Deliberately, I ensured I never apologized for slapping her. She has complained that I never apologized and I told her I did not regret it.

Now my advice: Women are different. Some women will respect you when you are soft. Some other women will ride you if they see any signs of softness. Maybe you need to show your wife that you can be beastly if provoked. Do not beat her. Two solid slaps would do. If she is the type you said she is, she would become violent and go crazy. Do not fight with her. Your point is already made. You will see changes I hope. All the best[/quote]

go through this thread,,, u may get some pointers here though no two situations are the same

https://www.nairaland.com/1496529/priest-aids-wife-build-without


The most important thing is the attitude of the people involved... is she the type that will rub his eyes into it later..
is he the insecure type that is worried by all those
Has he made comments to make her doubt her place in the union

She is his wife...ideally what she has is his and his hers.. but this is the real world

what the... impressive

Excellent post!

bukatyne: @OP:

Your thread would have had the desired impact if it was not too emotional and tilting against logic.

If we go the traditional route that a man provides, he only does so for his wife. Once they are divorced, they become familiar strangers.

Truth is I have never understood the need for divorce settlement except for a stay at home mom due to uncontrolable circumstances or couples who have joint investment. Patrimony? Yes

A man only owes his ex wife if he caused the divorce and the wife has joint investment with him or geninuely cannot survive on her own.

A wife who cheated the hibby and wants to part ways should also do.same

I guess we all should drop this entitlement mentality
