Don't know about you but if in ur shoes, I will take the risk..give the opportunity my best and await the outcome. .. Teaching jobs can always come!
FamilyRe: He Started Beating Me 4 Days After Paying My Dowry by PresVA: 9:04am On Jan 13, 2016
Meeloreh:
Just one question: how much did he pay?

He'll no longer see the wife as an subject of love n care but a burden, asset cuz he paid an exorbitant price
Even if he paid millions. . Was he forced to pay it? Which kind yeye excuse be this? Once you pay someone's dowry, you now have the legal backing to beat them whenever you wish? undecided

ThankGod the woman spoke out.. Imagine, just 4 days after their supposed trad wedding. . Wonder what will happen at the later stages of the marriage. ..

Violence solves no problem. .say No to violence. .
FamilyRe: when your helper turns her back- advice please by PresVA: 10:33pm On Jan 12, 2016
ViNeHaNds:
yes, i see her as my saviour, no matter what then, haven't you read? now there is but , a big but. I have in no way condemned her, have I, she has my praises any day, but my joy is cut short, never saw the roles I played as a houseboy until now, I just feel I have been used. because right now she can't keep her promises, no money according to her, its not about any wrong doings, thanks you all anyways,
So what if there's no money at all? Or are you her accountant? Nawa oo
FamilyRe: when your helper turns her back- advice please by PresVA: 9:19pm On Jan 12, 2016
ViNeHaNds:
yea, last big money from her was my 60% school fees, she has not given me anything above 10k ever since, that's after working my ass out and some food stuffs, it do go a long way though, but right now, she has to full fill her promises, debts has to be paid, project funds but instead its quarrels upon quarrel, I feel I am wasting my time here, she will give me 10k and some food stuff, when i tell her I am goin back to school. How will this solve all these problems?
You talk with so much sense of entitlement. . If she doesn't fulfil her promise, what will you do huh She gives you only 10k, is 10k not money? You're so arrogant. .
Remember she has a family she's taking care of now.. how sure are you she even has the money now?

Better calm down and be humble, stop acting like she owes you something. Always approach her in a respectable manner. .

Also, isn't there a job you can do to earn money for yourself?
FamilyRe: Is My Mum Right To Have Said This? by PresVA: 3:39pm On Jan 12, 2016
Yomieluv:
Funniest thing is that the bag is heavy,and she's pregnant.

I see no big deal carrying the bag for her cos of her condition.

My mum knows she's preggy.yet said such thing.

Women are indeed their own worst enemy.
In as much I don't support your mum's view.. you should take it easy on her because that was probably her own perception. . You should have gently explained to her instead of hanging the phone on her...

Also, it will be best if you don't tell ur wife what transpired between you and your mum so as not to breed enmity/ grudges. .
FamilyRe: Is My Mum Right To Have Said This? by PresVA: 2:53pm On Jan 12, 2016
You made the mistake of not calling your mum to order before cutting the call..

Tell her it's what you love doing and the woman no use juju hold you. . Tell her she's your wife and you can do anything for her... you can also go on to explain that your wife had too many bags hence you decided to help..

When a husband treats his wife rightly, na juju the woman use hold am... nawa oo... You'll see so many husbands who desire doing 'stuffs' for their wives deter or even give up because of what people will tag them...

A priest in my parish will always tell men that when other men or people ridicule you because of good stuffs you do for your wife/family, they ridicule you because they can't have the kind of lovely family you've got! They're so jealous in their minds! Some of them will be jealous that you're always running home to your wife/family instead of staying in the bar and drinking hence they end up mocking you to feel good about themselves. ..

My husband carries my handbag often especially when I have put so many things in it and it's heavy! I see nothing wrong with it!
RomanceRe: My Funny Experience With Black Girls In Uk Club by PresVA: 10:39am On Jan 12, 2016
Doing the ladies a favour? Really? Who told you they needed your favour? You just assumed the girls would welcome you with open hands and then you take them home as per oloshos wey them be abi? Who even knows how you approached them with your mentality that they're 'ordinary' black girls and should be happy you're doing them a favour. ..

You even got less than you deserved... get a life!
FamilyRe: My Brother In Law (sister's Husby) Is Becoming Too Rude For My Liking... by PresVA: 10:00am On Jan 12, 2016
It's even a shame you're being reminded to do the dishes. . Who are you expecting to do it?

Abeg leave the house before you cause unnecessary wahala between husband and wife...

Didn't even know guys could have issues like this... even the kind of song he plays is an issue for you. . Nawa oo

FamilyRe: Sexual Communication: Easier Said Than Done - How Can You Tell Your Partner? by PresVA: 8:57am On Jan 12, 2016
Husbands and wives do that easily. . So I see no biggie about it. ..

You'll only be scared to communicate if you're fornicating cos the confidence isn't there...

Even teenage siblings of opposite sex cannot sleep on one bed.
Is it that bad? Hmmmm

What if someone goes to visit her brother who lives in a self con or one bedroom apartment? The brother go sleep for floor or leave the house for her?

I see no problem as long as it's for a short while probably caused by some inevitable conditions...
FamilyRe: Help by PresVA: 12:37pm On Jan 11, 2016
Were you properly married to him?

I suspect he paid your dowry at 20 because he impregnated you and now your family knows better than forcing their daughter to get married to her impregnator.. They feel you deserve better. .

However, the decision is yours. . You're old enough to know whether you can live with him or not.. Also, your family has no right preventing the father from seeing his son...

Then, if your husband is serious about bringing his family to Lagos..let him come home, trash issues and take his family. .he's a man...
Hope you know the man very well and what he does in Lagos? To avoid regrets. ..
FamilyRe: I Hate The Way My Sister Husband Looks At Me - Should I Tell My Sister? by PresVA: 12:03pm On Jan 11, 2016
RadicallyBlunt:
Lol. That what. That her sister's husband is looking at her somehow cus her sister comes late from work? Whose fault is it gonna be..her sister and the husbands? Is a sister-in-law supposed to be alone with d husband b4?

It won't do any help especially if the wife is not matured enough to handle why her mother is supporting her sister over what she doesn't know just bcus they're trying to save her marriage. So the maturity still depends more on d wife's sister but maybe as a girl sha..she fit no fit handle am
@ bolded, what is wrong with the husband staying alone with his in law? Doesn't he control? Must he go after everything in skirt? She's your in law for heaven's sake... Mtcheeeew. .

Wonder what this world is turning into..

The girl should just leave the house for the stupid womaniser. .for her safety too, before he rapes her..

I fear for the man's daughters. . Maybe people will also blame the daughters for being girls just as they're blaming the lady for spending some days at her sister's house. . angry

Don't you have a house? undecided
What do you mean by doesn't she have a house? Is it now a crime to come to your sister's house? Or if I have an engagement in the town where my sister lives, I will go and lodge in a hotel?

Why can't the man just respect himself? Shameless man!

Messi will surely win the ballon d or. I love ronaldo but he still has a lot to learn about team football. For Neymar, he can't get it this year maybe next. From what i am seeing now, i think ronaldo should forget about receiving any baloon d or again.

Surprise him by telling him business has packed up and money is tight for you and you need his support. The truth will come out.

Op, heed to this..
FamilyRe: Our Level Of Exposure Is A Parallel Line, Do I Hold On? by PresVA: 9:57am On Jan 11, 2016
I think i agree you with you Bisjosh, you mustn't be so rich to show kind gestures to the one you love or reciprocate love...no matter how small..

Also, if he can't take responsibilities now, wonder how he would do that after marriage. ..

I still think his poverty mentality has a lot to do with it though
FamilyRe: Our Level Of Exposure Is A Parallel Line, Do I Hold On? by PresVA: 7:40am On Jan 11, 2016
Gaborone:
Sis, I made some additions to the post you quoted...you can check it up again.

Seems it all boils down to not having a father-figure in his growing up years to teach certain things. If this is the case, you can lovingly tell him about a woman's expectations from a man I'm certain instances (paying t.fare, etc). If he's not ready to learn, or change those little things, then, perhaps you should flee, because that may be a pointer that when you guys get married and big responsibilities come, he may not be stepping up for you.
He may want to pay her tfare et al... but does he have money for that? The problem i see here is poverty. . The guy acts the way he does because he's just managing. ..
FamilyRe: Our Level Of Exposure Is A Parallel Line, Do I Hold On? by PresVA: 7:36am On Jan 11, 2016
His problem is poverty hence his lack of exposure and bargaining attitude. . . Eetttcc.. he has that poverty mentality. . If poverty is eliminated, all those attitudes will be gone...

Is he promising? Do you think he can manage a business if given the opportunity?
Seriously, if you can, help set him up..

But then, if you want a posh guy, you can go for it.. Don't stay in the relationship out of pity because it'll lead to disrespect and the guy will start feeling it...

However, you should meet a gynaecologist. . Sorry for your predicament. .
FamilyRe: Please Help by PresVA: 1:58pm On Jan 09, 2016
Op, so you're waiting for people to tell you whether to marry your fiancee or not based on her education?

You're even too immature for marriage if you're going to base your decision on advice here.. as if na people here go live with you and your fiancee..

The supposed fiancee may even speak and act better than you do!

So i beta hav a woman who is jst alright in heart bt awesome in bed so dat i'll nt only stop lookin at other gals bt run home at d slightest opportunities
Same way your wife would be wishing her husband is a sex pro so that she wouldn't have to look outside..

What is good for the goose is also good for the gander. . tongue
FamilyRe: Can Sex Keep A Man? by PresVA: 12:51pm On Jan 09, 2016
Different things keep different men.. depends on individual value.. sex may keep Mr. A but won't keep Mr. B..

All depends on individual priorities. ..
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Referee Details Or "Available Upon Request"? What's Your Opinion? by PresVA: 10:44am On Jan 09, 2016
I don't supply my referee details until requested from the company and that's when I have confirmed they're genuine and probably gotten to maybe interview stage...

Reasons:
Lots of fraudsters in Nigeria; one would hardly know which job is genuine or not and putting details of influential people (my referees) on display is such a risk.. scammers may start calling/emailing them which isn't cool..

Most companies specifically request for referees during job advertisement if need be, so no need including my referees when it hasn't been requested. ...

Any company interested in you will request for additional information if needed

The cons are just bigger than the pros.....
FamilyRe: Why Do Virgins Brides Cry On Their First Time? by PresVA: 10:11am On Jan 09, 2016

I personally just calculated how much it cost to put three kids in childcare (for those abroad)
To make a decision
Yeah, it's pretty expensive over there.. what matters is that you're happy with your decision. . smiley
FamilyRe: 'Career' Wife Or Full-time House Wife by PresVA: 6:05pm On Jan 08, 2016
Must you stay at home to take care of kids? So those kids whose mums work ain't well taken care of?

There are jobs that give good work-life balance..

In this economic hardship, someone will stay at ahome doing nothing. . What if something happens to your husband's source of income?

FamilyRe: My Husband Offended Me ... Need Opinions by PresVA: 9:39am On Jan 08, 2016
Hmmm, the single thought of cheating on him says a lot about you!

You have to forgive because he probably said those words out of anger and you said words to him too..

Sit down, talk, apologise, forgive and resolve the issue... Don't let a single fight scatter your marriage. . Also, both of you should try and improve where needed.


That said, people should mind what they say because words spoken cannot be taken back!
