Kalatium:
That is a terrible experience.
Too bad you were used as a scape goat grin ad you said

However, the reason why everyone is against you is because you don't understand office politics.

You can't just be discussing your grievances to anyone when they are also not discussing theirs, from the story your complain was one sided. You were the only 1 upset that he didn't say it was from the boss.

There must have been other things you have been doing that is pissing them off apart from the money issue. Now you have learned to be careful.

Try to think this through in another perspective.

Why were you even bothered that he didn't say the money is from your boss ? He still have you guys the money nah. Had it been he didn't give the money at all, then it could have been a different case.
I firstly felt him taking credit for the money was very deceitful and very bad. Why will the person sharing the money not get his due credit?

Also, I am team lead. Oga now shared money way pass whatever I have ever shared in that office. If he was truly using his own money, I swear I would be happy and grateful. But showing generosity using someone else's niceness is a no no. Don't use someone else's money to climb on me.

If they talk within themselves, they never expose themselves. If the talk is from me, the person will expose me. I don't know the difference between confiding in a friend and backbiting now o! I swore to keep to myself in any organization from now on.

Living in shame in that office is very hard. But I'm doing it. Will leave soon.
Nairaland GeneralRe: What Thing Makes You Feel Ashamed Any Time You Remember It? by purples25(f): 8:15pm On Oct 18, 2022
This happened recently and I don't intend to forget it. It's a lesson though shameful and very painful.

My colleague at work was given money to share to us by my boss. I heard the boss giving the instructions.

Later on, the colleague shared the money to us as if it was just his money he was sharing out of his own Goodwill. I was angry and confronted him twice about it. He just shrugged it off which angered me further.

I called a colleague who was new and told her all. That the boss gave us the money and my other male colleague did not admit it was from our boss not him.

At that very moment, a meeting was called. It turned out a staff wanted to air her greviances towards me.

AS SOON AS THE MEETING STARTED, MY NEW COLLEAGUE STOOD UP AND SAID SHE DOES NOT SUPPORT BACKBITING OR JOIN ANY OFFICE CLIQUE. SHE REVEALED ALL I SAID AND TOLD EVERYONE I SAID IT, AND TOLD US TO OPENLY ADDRESS IT.

I felt very ashamed. Everyone now looked at me as a backstabber. In addition, the staffs intention for the meeting was to address their grudges towards me. Join that, plus the exposure of my 'backstabbing'. The meeting was a disaster. A staff started yelling at me all through and as everyone now hated me for the backstabbing, nobody stopped her. That was on Friday, 14th.

Now I went back to work. Everyone being polite and staying in their lane. I will never trust anyone again but also I believe they also discussed me. It's unfair I am the scapegoat because only the thief that is caught is called "thief".

I am now strictly business. I'm upset that I'm the only one to apologise while everyone else looks at themselves as angels. It's only that in their backstabbing, they didn't reveal each other.

There is no friend. Shikena. I'm glad I'm leaving there soon. I won't even tell anyone I'm going. Worked there close to a year.

VULCAN:
Notice how this person completely absolves the adulterous woman and turns around to make it about men in general.

Many of these feminists have psychological issues that undiscerning men won't notice till they have entered their trap.

I advise men to look well because a lot of these girls out there are mentally unstable
I won't deny that I did not address the woman's wrong. However, compared to the scores of men that flock to absolve their fellow man of any guilt when the tables are turned (millions here on nairaland), my sin seems less to me.

Normally women take the bulk of the blame in any morally corrupt affair. So what's the big deal if we ignore the female and focus on the male in a few instances?
RomanceRe: A Married Female Friend Asked Me Out Today by purples25(f): 9:22am On Oct 16, 2022
Women really need to stop giving men this ego boost.

Unrelated but triggered by the O.P....

He's got a girlfriend but he wants you to show affection...when you fall for him he just feeds his ego and goes back to gf...

He's married but wants to know you are attracted to him...just to feed his ego before he goes back to wifey....

You lower yourself as a married woman to toast a single man, which he is so happy about - all so he can brag that a married woman has toasted him before.

As a married woman you let a single guy seduce you....oga only wanted to do that so he could feel on top of the world about his seductive prowess. Not because he loves you.

As sad as oga here seems, i think he just wants to brag that a married woman is following him. There's an ego boost attached to all these things.
RomanceRe: As A Young Lady, Would You Rather Build With A Man Or Marry An Already Made Man? by purples25(f): 7:01am On Oct 14, 2022
Just know that sticking to, and building with a man is not a guarantee that he will love, cherish, stay faithful to, or appreciate you. Nothing you do, no one you pick is a guarantee.

If you stay and he rewards you well, it's your luck. Not because of what you did. Men would have us believe that what you put in is what you get out. But life isn't straight like that, and a lot of men certainly aren't either.

She was thinking of allowing us to see on Sunday when I called her she even woke with a good morning text this morning and spoke very nicely to me yesterday
She replied your greeting. Doesn't mean anything. She still told you she cant love you ( the stranger you posted as).

You're the one pushing for this, in my opinion.

How? Chat shows no evidence. I feel you're kinda unstable.

You really just want to dismiss this girl. You have no proof. I think it's better if she leaves you and finds someone who is not insecure.

She needs a new man that thinks about strengthening the relationship, not one that is looking for cracks.

She said you should f off and you said she accepted, how? Why are you trying so hard to prove she is not faithful when that's glaringly untrue. She's been saying to leave her alone, you want to persist until she falls. Why are you like this?

Ask your fellow Randy men why.

Maybe if they hold their d inside their pants, there would be more virgins.

See logic. After fvcking here and there, also commending your friends for doing so, you want to see virgins.

Is that kind of thinking rational? Only in a country with responsible men, can you see responsible women. It's a team effort, that makes many women of a country to remain chaste.

Yea not too large. Her stature is ok like a model. But d protruding belly (that look like Princess of Wales own when she newly gave birth) nearly ruin everything.

But she a beauty queen not an average girl
Not protuding to me. Just normal size. A woman's reproductive organs are situated there. Unless you want that to disappear. Normally there's supposed to be that little bump. It's natural.

The body type you are promoting is easier found in prepubescent females, and very thin or unnatural cases. If not I don't know why you'll expect a woman with a womb not to have a single hint of a bump on her stomach.

The best thing you could do, is ensure you don't take the virginity of a girl you never planned to marry.

Also find a way to apologise for your words towards her. Make sure she knows she is valuable, but that this dating thing comes with feelings and find another way of letting her know that though she is valuable, you don't have those feelings.

I repeat, the best thing you could do for a virgin you don't love and won't marry, is not to touch her.
CelebritiesRe: My Pet Project Touches Lives - Karina Poripo, 9th Miss Nollywood by purples25(f): 5:32pm On Oct 09, 2022
Her stomach is not large. It is very bad for people to exaggarate body features. Before you know it, you will make her start reducing something that has nothing wrong with it.

Don't contribute to unnecessary self esteem issues.

@Purples25, Very well said.

You forgot to mention
@Mstravelindiva in your post so that she'll easily know the post was meant for her.


You are one of the few creative, mature, and intelligent young females that I've known in my 17 years here on NL, and this is the reason why I'm still following you and your topics on an older moniker of mine that I created in the 2000s. You largely spoke my thoughts about that boy (troll) who tried to derail this San Francisco travel thread.


Last but not least, I'm also certain those two "lovable" teenage boys in your house have been tamed and are no more stressing you out.*smirk*


Stay safe. Enjoy your weekend.wink




P.S.
@Mstravelindiva, the post from
@Purples25 is originally meant for you. She's also based in Abuja, so when you and your spouse come visiting from the U.S., your paths might cross.

If your travel thread and posts were meant to brag or show-off, it would NOT have made the front page. Some trolls are depressed so they take out their frustrations on others. He doesn't even realise that you are not a young gurl, but you are above age 40, and a Company
Executive who just loves to pictorially document her travels for the benefit of all!

Just ignore that boy (from the location in his profile, it shows he is
Ibo) and any derailer next time. Also hit the report button (near the like button) or let the mods on the Travel thread know about the troll. They will send him to "sleep" for derailing and insulting you.


Enjoy your weekend. Ciao.
@ AlphaTaikun, thank you for appreciating me. I pray to God to keep adding to my knowledge and give me more wisdom.

So you realized you can't use women in Canada or harass them due to their dressing or your opinion about them. You realized you can't touch them simply because they are dressed skimpily.

Which means you KNOW what you are doing to Nigerian women. You KNOW that you easily use them and degrade them, and that you can't do that over there.

Hope your nature is open to you now. You can see that what you do to our girls isn't right. This Canada is just an eye opener for you.

AS for me, It's difficult oh, I'm working on myself 'spiritually'-not in the religious sense though- trying to heal and fix myself.

Not to repeat the story you've already told, I wonder, did any of that bad habit rob off on you? I'm the slow to anger type but when I get annoyed, the kind of words that leak out of my mouth scare the hell out of me. One day, I was in class teaching, a very naughty girl and her apprentice of a friend were distracting my class. I ordered her to leave(they were arts students anyway) but before she did she created a scene that got me annoyed. I uttered the words to a 15-16 year old girl, I think, "Your parents are just sending you to school for sending sake, if not, you're brain dead".

The whole class grew a bit uncomfortable even myself, my conscience didn't let me rest until I had apologized later that day, I called her and the friend to apologize. If I remember correctly, I apologized to her privately and also in front of the class. Hoping it ease the burden on my conscience. sometimes the words that come out of my mouth when I'm annoyed are almost prophetic. The girl got pregnant and hasn't been able to continue studies till this day.

Most times, i don't let the angered voice spill out but I wish I could do away with it.
The bad habit rubbed off on me, I wanted to rule others the way my elders and parents ruled me....I wanted to have absolute power over others the way they had over me. I felt it was normal because I was made to believe everything my parents did was right. Every abuse was to be taken and forgiven and forgotten. Don't you see people here saying thanks for all those harsh beatings and treatments, they think it's normal too.

The good thing is that I know I have a problem. I am always correcting or being careful with myself, apologizing or trying to make up for any wrongdoing I committed on my younger ones. So it's a step to recovery.

I think you are also on that path, as you apologized to that girl. It means you recognize the problem and that is a step forward. I commend you on that.

Keep posting and ignore trolls. It delights them to get attention from you. You can see how happy the other one was to get your attention.

Sometimes, someone says something just as bait to draw you out. There is something that person wants to say, and they won't be able to say it unless you retaliate or react to their provocative words. They already wish to insult and discredit you, but your answer or retort is the key. Don't give them that chance.

I personally feel that this person is against / jealous of you and wanted a chance not only to discredit your experience, but to make you feel like trash. So he was very happy when you replied and he was able to thrust those words at you.

Good morning. Not raining where I am though. I've seen more bad people than good people. I've seen people say they want to redeem someone, only to privately stigmatize that person. E.g Muslims that go to Church to become Christians. They would act like they accept you, but try marrying one of the members first.

Or when I saw an addict live being accepted by a church. They said they accepted her, but behind, they warned each other not to associate with her.

Or when a school meeting was called and the principal said everyone should relate their story of abuse so that we would address it together. I was very young but I still had the wisdom not to do so. You see, as the poorest kid in a rich school, I already saw the desire in the principal to turn me into a clown and object of ridicule! Guess what, I was right! In subsequent times the whole matured principal joined in with students and teachers to ridicule me and say I was odd and strange. She used every opportunity to laugh about me. Had I said my story on that school meeting day like other students, she would have never let it die and used it to ridicule me further.

So many stories I encountered in real life but the fact is real experiences have taught me that most times this help dished out to bring in rejects of society is not really real. Behind, there is still plenty of secret degradation, rejection, ridicule, and so on. Perhaps they deceive themselves that they do it for God, perhaps they do it to look good for social media, but I tell you, behind closed doors, it's not like that.

wow this is pretty intense, something similar ever happen?
I know what it is to have a parent that damns all to hell to do anything they like to you, on the basis that they don't care how angry you get, and there's nothing you can do about it. Enduring such behavior for years is very painful. Then when a child lashes out like the human he or she is, people are surprised - which is hilarious to me. Did they think the child was made of stone? If a husband can leave home based on such verbal abuse, why does everyone assume a child is a supernatural all loving creature? Is he/she an emotional beast of burden?

Men are the cause.

They worship the women that look good like they are gods.
They abuse the women that don't look so good like they aren't even human.

If a woman isn't what they consider fine, they can't let her live her life in peace. Even when walking past with their girlfriends, they mock and taunt. A lot of men these days act more Petty and spiteful than any woman.
CrimeRe: 18-yr-old Boy Strangles Mother To Death For Calling Him Bastard by purples25(f):
Why would you wake your child up at midnight to call that child so many names, without provocation?

Parents tend to think that their children should have non ending patience and unconditional love and forgiveness. It's not like the kid is Jesus.

You have a kid and just do anything you like to the kid. Like it's not a human being you're doing all these things to.

By The Way. I am not supporting him at all. But people should stop treating kids like they don't have any feelings or limit. How long do you want a common teen to handle this. A grown man can't even take it. I say mothers take too much advantage and go too far. The child is human too.

Emotional and verbal abuse is very bad, it's terrible. A woman will lash out with words, it hurts very badly, Especially when the other party can't retaliate with like words. The other person suffers in silence while you kill them with words, it's not good.
