How Can I Handle This Situation At Work by Bestinstinct(m): 11:48am On Feb 04, 2020
This is not a thread for gender bashing except there's a need to make ladies a bit reasonable. Pardon my English too, I'm just a regular Oshodi breed not a Cambridge grad grin
Ok! The thing is ... I was transferred from Lagos to my company's branch in Abuja last year. After reporting and waiting to get my departmental posting, I assisted a lady who equally works there in fixing a work-related problem, she was elated and asked if I can work in her section which I accepted. Her name is Christina (pseudonym). She's a junior colleague but the sectional head is a woman too and her personal instructor in women related affairs. She convinced her sectional head and I was accepted. Permit me to give you a brief description of my now sectional head. She's a beautiful woman in her mid-forties, never married, very rude, let's just say she's everything bad in women of her age with fat account to boast of (awon feminist, men-are-scum-screw... cheesy ) We call her Madam. Two months after working in the office and settling gradually, Christina approached me for a sum of money which I declined but it was evident I have it and the pestering was becoming too much including emotional sighs and all. I decided to borrow her with agreement of her paying back after salary, I even agreed she splits the sum into two so she can be able to pay comfortably for two months. A week after, she told me she's free for the weekend and won't mind spending it in my new apartment. As Lagos boy now I declined and told her I'll be busy. This babe almost drained my battery with calls throughout the weekend till I switched off my phone. Firstly, I knew right there that getting my money back will be an impossible task and secondly like some guys will expect, do the do in other not to loss in two ways grin but I've outgrown that part in life. Amorous affairs have cost me the best parts of my youth and the damages of being ladies dream guy robbed me of personal development. So exchanging money for kpekus was totally out of it! We met at work the following Monday and it was rants upon rants but I told her I wasn't with my phone. This same scenario played out for two more weeks before month end but I stood my ground. So the D-Day came! Salary got paid I reminded her of my money and she said and I quote "how many times I dey call you for weekend wey you no dey pick my calls, I no know which money you dey talk". With confidence o. I just froze. I kept it to myself and never mentioned it and she equally acted like nothing happened though I was pained. Last December, I was to deliver an i-watch to a customer (personal hustle) so I came with different colors and series. She saw it and was even advertising. I sold 4 in the process and she took one too and promised to pay by month end just like everyone. Now the problem is....after I dodged her during the last Xmas holidays, she's back with stories of not having money to pay now that I should wait till another month end. I honestly wish I can report her but Madam na 2-way traffic. It's either she blows things out of proportion or tell me to forget it as a 'big boy' and that will be the end of it. I'm just so so angry but confused. Now she's reminding me of Val on hourly basis like it's significant to my life. I've heard so much about Owerri babes but this one just confirmed the ills peeps say about them. I'm trying to be a gentleman but e dey hard me embarassed....Responsible ladies and gentlemen....how'd you handle situations like this? Don't abuse me o...I have headache already embarassed

Spending a dime on a woman who is not your mother, daughter, sister or wife is a total WASTE!!

You don't do that, if you are a careful and wise spender.

In my opinion, keep "gentleman" aside, follow her aggressively with threats. Make her hate you, that's the only way that money will come out.

Women are scared of who they hate.

Tell her you will report her to her madam, stop being a nice dude, don't reply her chat or calls, let her know you're angry.

Though she's going to hate you but don't give a fvck that's only way to get your back from a typical naija girl bro - Exchanging Money for Sex is in their Genes

Once beaten twice shy. Until u quarrel with some ppl, they will always mess with u. If this is how u want ur work environment to be, then it's up to u. But if I were u, I will not take it cool wit her. Highest I will not get back my money but I will have my peace from henceforth and that's the most important thing if u must grow.

When it comes to women, I don't play. I don't do familiarity. They call me all sort of names behind my back but I don't care. My policy then was, you are either a girlfriend or a bedmate or we ain't friends, just hello and hi. I know they are nice girls out there but most want to exploit and so I just stay at arms length. .

If you want to earn respect, put your foot down henceforth and learn to say no. Nigerians don't appreciate nice guys. Play play dey cause see finish.

Never loan out money you can't afford to let go. One chance babe; she not ready to pay you back. Even the watch money, she wont pay. She's ready to pay you back in kind sha. She wanna give you kpekus; you will be doomed if you accept it.

@Bestinstict, what exactly is your problem?

What are you so afraid of that despite this woman refusing to pay back the money she owes you, you still went on to give her an i-watch on credit?

Continue forming big boy there...

In fact, carry your salary atm card and give her since you enjoy being a wuss...

I understand your condition. It's a simple equation. First what's your relationship with the lady at the office? Do you need to stay in touch with her all the time?

IF NOT, BLOCK HER EVERYWHERE. This one that you are saying your oga has two wires in her brain. Chances of it going in your favour ARE SLIM. Cut off all contacts with the lady when she sees you are not joking anymore she will mellow.

I won't call you a wuss because you have been able to stand your ground and not let your dick control you. I trust some guys here every weekend appointment don sure. smiley

I swear with everything in me we don't have any communication aside hi hi at work. I don't pick her calls nor chat her. She's blocked everywhere even FB. She reported me sef that my number don't go through when she calls but others don't have same issue. Told her I'm pissed with her kind of person and she still shamelessly begged me.

A work relationship would have sorted this out for you bro. I don't have friends when it comes to business and my job. You borrow money from me, you pay it. You buy something you still pay for it. If I can lend my man money and he will pay me and same with me paying him back, I don't see how a mere colleague will be an issue. Please tell us the true story. Because it seems to me like you started something you couldn't finish.

Na real problem you get sha

This kind people are parasites

But you shouldn't have allowed her to take the watch, considering the fact she didn't pay last time

Just forget the money, or tell your boss, she tells you to forget it.... All na same... But there's another 50% chance she'll ensure she pays, or deduct the money from her salary

Tell her all your experiences with her, with evidences or let go

It's a good thing you resisted sleeping with her
She for dey blackmail you by now... Thus leeching you more

Then I think you need to man up. Stop all that smiling upandan, turn to a serious guy and all that call to meet up weekends, stop lying about it. Tell her you don't like it and you wouldn't want your girlfriend to be uncomfortable with her insistent calls. Even if you don't have one you can behave like you do.
She thinks you are available because you have provided her with time and effort. If you want your money back, you may have to tell her you will involve the company so that your money can be removed from her salary. I sense you feel grateful to her for giving you an opportunity in her department. Young man, she did not give you that job. It is just a placement and you can apply to be taken to another place. MAN UP, MAN!

You made a big mistake by lending her that sum of money, she is just displaying manipulative skills. You still disappointed me again by giving her a watch with her promising to pay you later after the first debt incurred.

You are indeed a gentle nice man( a very sumptuous meal for your average naija girl).

You are principled and that's good. Keep it up.

Threaten to report her to your Madam if she fails to pay all she's owing you. And surreptitiously cut all ties with her. Make your relationship with her very official.

If she's wise she'll understand and do the needful.

She's a bad energy.
