This one na winch hahaha good for Dem that the best way to treat them

There is one giving me a tough time like this I just de look her she is pretending not to like me but am tired of her somehow because she has a bad character about men and she is a feminist



Well said but remmeber these naija gals ain't got noting to offer to a struggling man and for them to cool down and concentrate on a guy that loves them they will tend to see the guy as an idiot and use him to play and while banging some other guy if she is a ho ..codedly o ..some will even chop you die

Omo naija gal me and Dem no fit de one house forever in marriage
well, i have never dated a naija girl. let me say i dated one while i was in ss3. i dont know if i should call that a date. my present fiancee is not nigerian, i dont think i can break up with her and not try to make up a few times before i move on. same thing with her. i dont have too much experience with naija girls. but from what you said, maybe that is the best way to treat naija girls. girl wey leave am for 5 years cannot tell me tht she has not sampled varous preeks or even do olosho for pekas sef. e sure me say person dumb am so she dey try find her roots back using okafors law grin grin grin

Leave everyone to handle their breakup the way they want.
If they wanna post motivational quotes, let them post. Finish. Keep your opinions to yourself and let women breathe..

You sound so pained and lonely

Me and one of my ex girl are still friend on facebook, I was on line this particular day saw her timeline boldly written "I DONT NEED A MAN, Am INDEPENDENT".. I my mind just shake my head, cause its been years I heard from her last... Between 15min of reading her post, she inbox me privately, starting with casual greetings, for my mind I know this is not normal.... To cut the story short , she was begging me to assist her With her school fees, that exam was approaching... I didn't even reply her I just logout....

"I'm better off without you", "I like the woman I'm becoming". Do these statements ring a bell? Many of us have come across quotes like this on WhatsApp, Facebook and so on. Whenever we see quotes like this, the first thing that comes to mind is that the individual who posted it, just got out of a relationship.

I find it funny that after a break up, most people try to prove that they're over their exes by posting motivational quotes like the ones above or memes aimed at making their exes feel uncomfortable. For example, a girl who just got out of a relationship with a stingy guy may constantly post memes condemning stingy guys on her WhatsApp status, hoping her ex will see it and feel bad. Or a girl who just got out of a relationship with a guy who constantly ignored her, may start posting motivational quotes like "Don't force yourself on anybody", "don't settle for less", "don't stay where you are not wanted" etc immediately after the breakup.

If you really want to give your ex the impression that you're over them, posting memes and motivational quotes is not the way. The best way to do that is to act like nothing happened, and that should also reflect in what you post on your WhatsApp status or anywhere else. Post normal stuff, don't post anything relating to breakups or relationships. When you constantly post motivational quotes after a breakup, it gives your ex the impression that you're still thinking about them and that you're still hurt. But when you act like nothing happened, it makes your ex wonder if they ever meant anything to you (I'm talking from experience).

You should also avoid making your ex feel that you hate them, scientists say that our pupils dilate when we see someone we love or someone we hate, so when you hate someone, they still have an effect on you physically, mentally and emotionally. It's better for your ex to think that you've forgotten about them than to think that you hate them. I've actually met a guy who was satisfied with the fact that his ex girlfriend still hated him, he said her hatred was proof that she was not over him yet. They later got back together but the bottom line is that when you harbour hatred for an ex, it means you're not over them completely.

You may never want to get back together with them, but they still have a strong effect on you and your mood, so try as much as possible to forget, not hate. Some people might hurt you so much that you can't even control your hatred for them, take all the time you need to heal from the pain, but don't make it obvious to them that you hate them, you don't have to put on a fake smile when you see them, just be civil, avoid sounding angry or bitter. *This is just my opinion, not a fact, do whatever you think is best for you*

Note: you should only do all this if you want to give your ex the impression that you've moved on, if you want to hash out the problems between you and your ex, there is no need to act like you don't care about them anymore but play it cool so you don't seem desperate. Also, if the issue that resulted in the breakup is a very serious one, it's better to discuss it and iron it out than to act like nothing happened.
I like this. Good write up.

I once heard that men end up marrying the woman who was ready/available, not necessarily the one they truly loved.

You just reminded me of what I heard a very long time ago as a teenager. At the time I heard it, a family friend was newly wedded to a guy whom she was a rebound for, they are still together 10 or more years later.


You are right about 'ready or available' part.
Though patience and peace of mind may play a role in who a man settles with too.

That's extreme.. what happened to relating normally if need be..the person isn't an enemy


Truly an ex is not an enemy but shouldnt be confused with a friend either.
I think it's better to lose any string attached to an ex because keeping his/hrr contact does trigger a remembrance which may be dangerous to one's new relationship.

well, she broke up with me then..i loved her so much then...she was so eager and desperate to marry, she gave me an ultimatum on when to marry her, i refused yielding to her pressure we broke up and now she is coming back to yarn dust to me...maybe because she still dey single and in her late thirties...

She's mad.
No reason her at all. That's how they behave when they think the world revolves around them. then when things did not go their way they start looking for who to blame. she should go fix herself.

To avoid preventable mistakes, an ex shouldn't be taken as a normal friend.
By normal friends, you talk often, maybe even visit.
But we must remember that feelings don't die, just dormant. And can be reactivated anytime anyday under some conditions, especially with attention through strings.

This act alone has been responsible for many married people keeping concubines with their exes, or dating people losing their new relationships because parts of them are still want to be with their exes.

Except for genetic incompatibility, if they were so good for us, why are they exes in the first place?

The post has no gender specific. And,
no she wouldn't keep her opinion to herself. Everyone is not selfish young lady. it's either you pick something from it or you disregard - she is not forcing it on anyone . Keep breathing , no one is holding you.

That is how one girl that broke up with me while i was still in school.. She claimed i wasn't giving much money and much attention so she disappeared voom without saying goodbye.

Few months later i saw her posting one guys pictures with her own on fb professing love to him, i chatted her up congratulating but she ended up insulting me telling me he has found someone better than im...

She continued posting and tagging me on fb to always see d nice moments with her new found love, after like six months i stop seeing her posts about the guy..

Fastforward last week, she started chatting me up, asking Howfar, where are u?? Bla bla bla.. But me just ignore.. I know say d guy has broke up with her..

You no owe anybody an explanation. The person who wears the shoe knows where it pinches... Some times we go just get a glimpse of a story and think we are then qualified to pass judgement.
