Congratulations. In about 6 months from now you'll understand why he ghosted you. You'll probably do the same to others in Nigeria.
I pray not to

it's because you're broke or should I say you don't have enough money.



If you have money you won't even have time for them. And you know one thing about money? Nobody ignores money
Are you senseless?
Do I need their money?
I was resting on Sunday and decided it's been months I heard from my friend and I sent a "Hi". Is that a problem?
As a friend you should genuinely be able to help your real friends if you have.
There are many other things a friend can offer you than money!
A friend can save your life!!!

I still believe the husband is responsible for the change cos she never stayed a day in nigeria without seeing me or calling me .I cherished the time we spent today while she was here and I wish her well.

I had three friends, and they didn't ignore me. One even called to inform me on the day he graduated from his master's program.

I think it's best you give them space when they travel to settle down and then they can contact you or you contact them months later. Have some pride.
It's actually been like a year she has gone. We didn't talk because she didn't inform me. I saw her online and sent a "Hi".
It's not a problem I guess.

Though not your intention but he’s expecting the conversation to turn to begibegi at any moment. As hundreds of conversations before yours.

My suggestion is to just be yourself. Say hello to him when you feel like it. Him not responding is not your issue.

Are you religious and post Jesus stuff all the time? Do you post happy new month all the time? Do you share chain emails such as like this post and share to three people or you’ll die? I can tell you that I don’t take anyone like that seriously too.

On another note, maybe it’s age but I’m looking for all my old friends and coworkers. Some need to get rewarded, those whose parents always fed us and gave small small changes back then.
I don't post or resend those stuffs. I hate it when someone sent them to me too.

Don't take his post personal. Your friends are going through shit in US beyond their imaginary America pre-travel.

In another word, they are now facing reality abroad.

They just ignore deliberately.

Still don't get why its anyway; but I would have just love one of those in diaspora to really answer that.... The koko be say, we in Naija should hustle,,, once u were seen on media that you are doing well, they will have reason to reply or check on you
It's because we hustle legit and we don't fake it.

So they assume we are not doing well. Lol

Baba u're likely to do same if you travel. Most times you wouldn't like to read and reply a simple "Hi" from someone you know because you already assumed you will get billed as usual
Then I can politely decline.
What if the person's genuinely needs the money and I can spare at the moment?
A little help from you can save life!
Pls don't stop helping if you can

Would you be friends with me please? I am not seeking for monetary incentive or anything. DM if you are cool. Thank you.

I'm not talking about time they have. I mean they do not have the capacity financial wise. Be sincere, nobody just wants to say "hello" from back home without demanding something. This is a fact. It is very rare for someone in Nigeria to just wanna greet you or see how your are doing. America or Europe without asking for financial favor

They did not ignore you, they are trying to find their feet and maybe you are demanding much from them.

SeekHim:
A-Acknowledge the fact that you are a sinner and that you cannot save yourself. Psalms 51: 5
B- Believe that it is only Jesus that can save you. Romans 10:10, Acts 4: 12
C- Confess your sins, repent from them and be converted (Never go back to them). Romans 10: 9. Call upon Jesus to forgive you and be saved today (Romans 10:13).

Follow these steps now please! Tomorrow may be too late! Death may come, Rapture may take place before you act! Don't delay!!!
Thank you sir.
I have been expecting you. where is your second?

You're the real man, you've got to protect what you have and that's your self worth. We're like the same. Sometimes, I deliberately ignored calls from abroad because[b] they could speak for over an hour with you[/b].
No mind those folks, especially when you're dishing out loads of negativity about Nigeria during the conversation

I'm still right. Your friends won't ignore your messages if you're rich. Nobody ignores money.


Nobody has time for senseless and valueless talk. Your friends ignoring your messages can only mean one thing; you're of no value to them.

Someone should help me, am I suffering and I am not aware of it?
I never even thought of asking for money.
Is checking up on them something bad too?

No fragile ego here friend, not everyone will opportunity or means to relocate abroad even if all of us desire it. Abroad doesn't tickle my fancy at all. Even if I have opportunity today to relocate, I don't think I'm up for it. I'm doing well, that's enough for me. I don't need to work myself to death because of money

I would really hate to be related to someone like you. Someone who has the mentality that a phone call equates to "request and demands" that is how some of u lose good people. Because of your insecurities. But don't forget that no matter how high the eagle soars, it will still come to the ground to drink water. That is how a friend whom I contributed 200k for his flight ticket to US ignored me and stopped taking my calls and started ignoring my texts. Meanwhile I was not even poor or broke and my business was doing well, so I let him be. After like 2 years he called me one evening and introduced himself and told me to please assist his younger brother with 150k to pay rent that he'll pay me back. I simply replied and said "look I don't know u, stop calling me" then I ended the call and blocked his number
