Not getting married, I am working yet still not seen the right person, I feel bad about it everyday
same here, 35 going on 36. And it seems the older one gets, the less it becomes to settle for one.

Not learning a good marketable skill when I finished secondary school. I should have done that before going to the university. No one close to me will make that mistake.
Anyway, I am learning skills now.
It can never be too late.

Funny how you can recover all with extra in a matter of months…. It can’t be tougher than it already is!!! Dear Bro, please keep your hope alive and always remember that; WHAT GOD CANNOT DO DOES NOT EXIST!!!!

That it didn’t turn out the way you planned may be God’s way of saving you from greater danger ahead… Kindly let go and let God!!!! Truth is,we can’t undo the past but tomorrow is definitely a better day….


Feel free to reach out to me, if you’re interested in renewable energy like solar lights…. Pls don’t give up on yourself!!!

I wanted to leave the country back then.

Got admissions everywhere England, Usa, and Poland I felt finally I have arrived but unfortunately I got dupped.

Lost every penny in a flash, I couldn't even afford to feed myself.

That day I died inside and till today I will never recover from the shock.

The only reason I'm still is because I'm a coward that can't bear a little pain to end it all.

I wish I could go to bed and never wake up.

What did you end up studying
Edoziesmart:
My biggest regret is not studying quantity survey when I was giving admission to study that a decade ago. I find it as one of the useless course so far without knowing it is a very nice course.

Now my mate that took the bold opportunity to studied the course is doing pretty well for himself. Job upon job want to kill him in our community now. sad

Man is cruising on tundra Toyota as I'm talking, including other sport cars by the side

Loosing all my millions last year 8.8 million.

Now I'm starting from 0kobo at 33 years old and I unconsciously beg God for a painless death every day because I'm too afraid to do it myself.

Sorry for your loss but how did you lose 8.8 million?

Don't ever say that again.

There is no guarantee that you will make it or not even if you learn the said skill after your secondary school. Majority of those that chose the same path earlier are Okada riders today, some can't even feed their families with the said skills today.

Please appreciate your degree and use that as template to achieve more in future endeavours.
This is the same mentality that propelled my parents to send me to uni immediately after O level. The best education is basic education (good primary and secondary) tertiary is overrated. Talking about the aftermath of learning a skill, it all depends on what kind of skill, and also how focused and overzealous one can be in his or her chosen skill, u will definitely make headway. Today many graduates even M.sc holders are doing that same okada or keke u re talking about. Acquire a skill first, degrees can come later

Kai, big mistake, never give out money valuable to you ie money meant for a purpose.
My gf then in Ui saw I was broke. She had some dollars. Gave me $100. Omo, that night I drove to Sabo, changed the money. 100 dollars was 5000 naira then. I used the cash to carry another babe for goodtime.

You're a bad boy grin

and you think that will solve the problem. For ur information only a coward thinks this way. Face what ever challenge head on. You don't even know if it was ur parents advice that is still making u to breathe today.

Please bro don't commit suicide. You definitely be fine bro. Just keep pushing and try think of any other thing you can do that you have interest in. If u kill urself , its shows u are weak, try prove everyone wrong ......and come out strong

I regret the day I helped someone that I thought was my boyfriend back then in school, he asked me to give him my school fees for him to pay him, I did, he was already graduating from school, and he told me that immediately he goes back home he'll send the money back, only for this idiot to block me on all platforms. I cried, I was pained, I have no clue about his family members. And I didn't tell my parents, I started frying yam, plantain, and fish to gather 2 years' school fees. grin cry
The higher institution is another stupid world of its own.




Kindly visit my profile and check my signature. Thank you.♥️
Hmmmmm do you know maybe he is crying day and night now for what he did to you I know that him too will regret it

That I was born in Nigeria

OkwuMajesty:
My regret: being too anxious and not assertive enough, I regret not coming out sooner. Wasted years worrying about it, worrying about pretty much everything. All the time,being too afraid to live.

I used to think my family can't survive without me, so I wasted enough time trying to be almost everything possible for them, but I was totally wrong.

What's yours

time in school is never wasted, there are people who wants to be on nairaland as you, but can't because the knowledge of how is not there. that is just the least. have you ever imagine how it would be coming across many written signs and all you could do is just walk by without knowing what is on a single one? more like the blind mehn. education is never wasted, forget the present situation, later you will appreciate it.
are u telling us that a secondary school leaver can't read or write? What we're saying is tertiary education is overhyped, period.
