cheesy

Most people don't get married out of love, they do it to satisfy societal expectations.

Bolder ladies just get pregnant for unidentifiable men and keep the child to herself.

Do what you feel is right and live with the consequences, good or bad. Time no too dey.




Read the last paragraph with more understanding.

It's still not enough having a father. Many single mothers have raised global heroes without the presence of a father/husband.

I hope you understand the last paragraph.

Shalom!
He doesn't. He's too hung up on his narrow-minded and judgemental self.

A lot of women plan to get married, a lot of men stumble upon marriage. Most men are married to women they planned to just sleep with. They got in and could not come out.

Women in their 30’s don’t have time for the trial and error, they have it all planned out. Before you get their number, you have to commit, before they visit you, they have to make sure you are willing to get married in 6 months.

Desperation is one of the biggest turnoffs ever. When you are not sure whether a woman likes you or she just likes the idea of marriage. Trying to avoid ‘time wasters’ is one of the main reasons there are a lot of single women. You see a woman leave her boyfriend of two years because he’s wasting her time, 3 years later he’s getting married and she’s still single.
You just comfortably typed balderdash.

What exactly do you define as “desperation”? So, if I am ready for marriage and the other person is not, I should stay back to my detriment just because I do not want to be seen as a desperate woman?

Kind advice — Never ever give public advice ever again. You sound slow.

otherway:
1. Healthcare

UK has free healthcare across board so much that even visitors don't pay to give birth cos it is considered an emergency which everyone in UK is entitled to regardless of your immigration status. You will only pay for extra treatment as a visitor.

This is not the same in te states and most likely not the case in Canada.

2. Road transport network.

The UK has one of the best network in the world compared to other countries esoecially the states where you will need to get yourself a car of face a very harrowing experience.

3. Accommodation cost...

America has the highest accommodation cost when you compare to the UK and Canada.

In UK you can easily get a shared room for 600pounds where you don't need to pay extra bills but that same apartment will cost you far more in America especially in many urban cities.

4. Welfare system.

The UK has the best social welfare when it comes to taking care of their citizens.

The UK government prioritises welfare so much that no single mum with a minor child is homeless as the Govt provides accommodation for them (even if you don't have resident permit)

The ability to have emergency treatment free is also part of the robust welfare system.

5. Cost of living.

The UK is designed in such a way that the average wage of workers is sufficient enough for you to pay for a decent place to live and groceries are very affordable despite the increment in price unlike America where groceries are more expensive and you even have to pay extra added tax.

6. Salary..

This is the area many people think America is better than the UK but when you consider the cost of accommodation and living cost in America generally, you will realize that it is easier to save 700pounds in the UK if you make like 2k pounds than it will be easy to save 700usd if you make 3000usd a month.

7. Life security

Please I don't even need to write so much on this.

8. Taxation...

People say UK has a high tax but this is a big fat lie.

The UK generally tax you 20% and you don't get taxed at all if you make 12k or less a year.

The America system has a lower income tax but you will also pay additional different types of tax that make it even far more than that of the UK.

9. Ease of integration.

Asides the marriage route which the states is known for, it is easier to have resident permit in UK than Canada and America.

A. You can get your residence in UK if you are a man or woman who has a child with a UK citizen or one with ILR(indefinite leave to remain)

B. You can have your resident permit if you have a child that has no link to any UK citizen but you just have to wait for 7 years.

C. You can have your resident permit if you come to the UK with a minor child... Just wait for the child to live for at least 7 years.

D. You can have leave to remain in the UK if you suffer a serious medical condition and if you can prove that the condition will deteriorate in the absence of treatment and that you can't afford the treatment back in your country.

Let me just stop here.

Only ignorant people who have no clue of how things work will be typing shits.
See this ignoramus!!!

What you spewed here is full of shit...

Who told YOU healthcare is not free in Canada?
Re: Finding Love In The UK Is Hard, But There's A Secret by Deeegbee: 9:59am On Jun 10, 2024
sonnie10:
So you would rather go to UK where your child would have to wait 7 year after birth to become a citizen than a place like the US that the child becomes automatic citizen right from birth?
Also you would rather go to UK where for instance a nurse make less than 50k per year than the US where nurses make on average 80- 90 a year?
Talking about emergency treatment, did you even know that it is law for hospitals in US to treat anyone with emergency situation, including child birth whether they can pay or not?
And who told you that you can’t find a single self contain room for less 600 dollars in most US state
Everything you listed up is not a true comparison of the two countries.
You should not mind that i.diot!!

This shows how many people negative and toxic an average Nigerian can be.

You foolishly concluded that I am an ignoramus just to point out a nonsensical View.

I was expecting you to counter the points one after the other in order to arrive at your ediotic remark.

First off, let me make it care that healthcare is not FREE IN THE REAL SENSE ANYWHERE because the care is being made available by tax payers money.

Now comparing UK to Canada I can tell you for a fact that UK healthcare is still more robustly free in UK as against Canada where you still need to rely on insurance to access certain healthcare.

Also for visitors, contrary to your stwpid unfounded post that it is free, I challenge you to go dons out.

EMERGENCY HEALTHCARE SERVICES IS NOT FREE FOR VISITORS IN CANADA.

Given birth is not also free in Canada for visitors.

You are the type of people I was referring to as the ediots who write trash from their bug infested rooms yet they know nothing about what they write about.

I would have been kind towards you if you did not come in a condescending manner just to end up disgracing yourself.

Bloody ignoramus.

I'm talking from experience. As a single, before you relocate to UK, make sure you have a serious relationship back home before coming here. You can't find true love here in UK. Why do you think guys come back home to marry and go back with their wife's?

Here can be so lonely and them no born you well to approach a white lady anyhow. Hence, she'll call 911 on you for harassment. Unlike Nigeria were you can walk up to any lady toast her anyday.
911 in UK! Liars!

Re: Finding Love In The UK Is Hard, But There's A Secret by geewean(m): 11:02am On Jun 10, 2024
I was dating a girl though I am in Nigeria.She came to Nigeria to visit me .Infact I gave a a queenly treatment.She was like where have I been that am a good man.She was like let's get married.I agreed but I no get money to relocate.She would have assisted but she said two guys have used her head well.

I did a mistake to ask her to add money to add to get my laptop.She asked if I wanna rip her.From then I noticed a change in our communication especially as she moved newly to Scotland.

After much pressure from me to tell me her mind she now said she loves me but because am in Nigeria it won't work that she is breaking up.I later asked her to give me till October let's see how far.She agreed but said the relationship should be on PAUSE.

So I stop contacting her for two weeks .Naso she start to dey check on me .Even sent me happy Easter message.


But if I call she won't pick my call claiming she is busy but she will call me by 11pm I won't pick.I got angry and stopped contacting her.

She recently messaged me asking: Godwin, how far with your japa plans? I was shocked it was like she still loves me.

I just told her that I am on it her told her my moves she said.Its well and when I told her I will do everything in my powers to at least move to a Euro country.She said : Noted!

Now could it be that she has a side dick but she isn't sure of the guy?

I am kinda unclear about the situation .Those in the UK should I give up on her and move on?

Ever since I was a child, for some weird reason I have always disliked UK

Like if I'm given Free Visa to UK
I will not go 1000% serious

And even if I must go, once I enter London
After 10 minutes I will go back to Airport

To me, UK has a gloomy dark vibe that I can't really explain.
Maybe in my past life I was involved with an event in UK, which made me dislike that place..

Just the thought of me going to UK
Gives me Anxiety... I just can't explain why??



I rather go to Japan, South Korea than UK angry
Get out of my head.

This is a confirmation that I have been wasting my time with someone most likely posting from one bug infested room in one remote part of a neglected place in Nigeria.

I guess you missed the part where I wrote that I am a legal resident here for well over 10 years or can't you see the audacity in my write ups.

You are indeed daftt for even trying to twist the narratives.

I gave a detailed reason why UK is the best amongst the three countries and rather than come out with facts to counter me, you resorted to trolling which is very typical of low lives.

Can you please stop quoting me.
