mehn in the bolded is one of my biggest fears lol. marriage is like shooting at a moving target. One has to choose to marry someone based on their now and pray the person doesnt drift too far from their kernel. lol infact it is a miracle that people can even be together for long because we all change over time.
yep!

This table we are all shaking!!!! grin

That video salford shared encapsulates it all....if the relationship is genuine and loving, conflict will happen but the "home staying, school run doing, human hair wearing, gucci bag carrying party" (the lady) will be happy to adjust if needed; get a job and be a financial contributor. Similarly, the "suit wearing, come back from work at midnight and do nothing else in the house party" (the gentleman) will also be happy to adjust if needed; by doing house chores and being more involved in childcare. They will talk about it, quarrel a bit, but eventually work it out.

I suspect, the people who drag each other to court when they get to Canny probably already had major undelrlying issues (even if they were unspoken) and were already full of resentment and bitterness. The change of location was just an excellent opportunity to kuku get their pound of flesh.


This one follow too lol.

There is a guy on Qoura who few years to his retirement got into a divorce, now he has to work even after retiring because he has lost his all. Dr Dre's wife is filing for a divorce after 24years of marriage. Mehn she doesn't even need to be treated badly to wake up and say she wants out. it is easy to want out if you are going to get paid heavily for leaving lol. lots of folks in this country are tied down with Alimony and child support payments. It's weird why people don't get a prenup, too many over optimistic men out there.
It boils down to manipulations- you don't love me enough, do you want this to happen to your sister? You uncoil. It could happen after some years like Dr Dre's. But super rich has passed the phase..they get what they want because most of the time the women fall on themselves to get his yes. So the one who finally secured it, doesn't pretty much object. Look at Trump, he has always secured his things and knows the ones to jettison to the women.

Anyway, there are not much attributes (esp pecuniary giveaways) on common-law partner or babymama, babaypapa arrangement or declaration nowadays, one can just leave the status at that.

Lol. I remember when I suspected the Air Peace one was a scam, well it wasn't but they unfortunately weren't allowed to land in Canada.

I wish Azman all the best. The more flights available, the better for us all.
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant Part 2 by POTUSUK: 3:54pm On Jul 02, 2020
Oh really? They weren’t allowed to land? I thought we heard two weeks ago that they actually landed! Are we talking about the same air peace flight that air lifted peeps through Lomé, Adis Ababa, Dublin and Edmonton?

The only place you can really wear your human hair and full makeup to is Nigerian church, nobody else cares much lol. [b]You cannot spray perfume at most workplaces.[/b]Minimalistic makeup and jewelry is the general work culture here. You can sha spend big money on expensive but minimalistic looking stuff sha, brand names and stuff.

my airbnb host works with the family court. Said many of the cases with them are Nigerians and Indians. Asked me to be careful who i date or marry. Said even tho some Nigerian men get am for body no one deserves the kind of things some women put them through here. Some men are paying spouse support, child support and yet cant see the kids as they please. She advice me not to see marriage as we see it in Nigeria. Say no be by force. Coming from a married woman o cheesy

My married Indian colleague, a lady, keeps telling me to enjoy being single and not to be in a hurry to get married or have kids. I like the idea of getting married but considering how picky I have become, that could take a long while.
