RomanceRe: Females: The Victims Of Broken Relationships by Rhea: 1:18pm On May 10, 2007
Before we counter, let's take note of the use of 'some' and 'most' in his entry. That does not generalise anything.
RomanceRe: She Gave Me Her Number. Is She Cheap? by Rhea: 1:10pm On May 10, 2007
Oh Boy,

The girl just sold you a dummy, and it's working quite well. You are now in a dilemma wondering if the girl is worth more than a one-night stand.

I guess you bugged the hell out of her life that she just sold you the I-am-that-cheap-dummy. Now you're having second thoughts about dating her ot not

Now she's about to get rid of you. grin

For all ya ladies in the house, I guess you just learnt how to get rid of a guy in, well a little over 24hrs. grin
Just pop otu your number like a hot bread out of a toaster, and he'll be wondering if you're worth a nickel.
FamilyRe: My Mum Is Too Harsh; Help! by Rhea: 1:17pm On May 09, 2007
Most contributions here rightly capture my thoughts. Your mum is a product of the situation she has found herself (polygamous family, widowhood etc). Being harsh is one way of survival and bringing you guys upon her own. But then again, 'harsh' is a bit too harsh a term to use. Let say 'too strict'.

You just have to bear it till you gain your financial independence from her. Then again, I have this gut feeling that you may end up being 'harsh' to your kids too.
RomanceRe: Would You Marry A Househelp? by Rhea: 1:11pm On May 09, 2007
Come to think of it, every other girl must have been a housegirl at some point in her life.

When you visit your elder sister, or aunty/uncle/relatives as the case may be and help out with house chores, cooking, taking out the trash, cleaning, laundry etc, you are invariably performing the duties of a househelp, be it on a temporary basis and in tight fitting jeans and spaghetti strap top.

So, I would not give second thoughts to marrying a decent well-behaved and brainy househelp.

After all, decency, good behaviour and brains are a combination of attributes that are fast becoming extinct in the average Nigerian ajebota/wife material.
RomanceRe: I Love My Boyfriend But I Fancy Another! by Rhea: 12:49pm On May 09, 2007
Bebe,
I think you should add more adventure to your boring life and juggle both guys. The outcome should be explosive, but then only the tough survive. Your boyfriend could even have some other shag besides yourself. And your fantasy toyboy should also have a list of admirers like a voter's registration list.
So, live it up and take the risk. Life's all about risk. Break some hearts and yours if need be.
If it doesn't end up like you dreamed, you can join RCCG or Christ Embassy (if you haven't already) for some soul healing process.
RomanceRe: What's The Big Deal About Kissing? by Rhea: 3:52pm On May 07, 2007
I think kissing is a big deal. It is a more intimate form of expression of affection that sex, even though one could kiss in public but not have sex in public.

Which is easier on a one-night stand: kissing the girl or having straight sex with her?

Kissing should be mad fun, assuming none of the party has got halitosis.
RomanceRe: What's The Big Deal About Kissing? by Rhea: 3:48pm On May 07, 2007
I think kissing is actually a more intimate form of expression that sex.

Ever wondered which you would do first on a one-night stand: kiss the girl on the mouth or go straight to the main dish?

So, I think it is a big deal if none of the party has got halitosis.
RomanceRe: Why Cant One Ever Find A Straight Forward Guy by Rhea: 11:19am On May 04, 2007
One can find a straight forward guy. Problem is, most of them don't look like Usher nor have a pad equipped like Tyrese's.

Back to the subject, for subsequent relationships, I would advise you to ask the guy his plans for the relationship before you dabble into it. Is is for sex or marriage or for company (platonic without any of the two mentioned above).
RomanceRe: Should I Marry Her Without Courting Her? by Rhea: 1:12pm On May 02, 2007
@Femo_a

You have fallen in love with a voice on the phone, and probably a face on some photograph. I would advise that you go back to Naija and see for yourself who it is you've been chit-chatting with for 8 months. That way, you can compare and contrast and then acquaint yourself with the suprises and shocks that come with the package.
RomanceRe: My Girlfriend Squats With A Guy In School by Rhea: 3:58pm On Apr 27, 2007
Well, if this guy is gay, then you have nothing to worry about.

If not, then you've already lost your grilfriend. Sorry. sad

I cannot imagine having a girl for a room mate, and it's raining and the weather is damn cold, and my jacobs are freezings, and there's a girl clad in see-through lingerie and looking like an overflowing cup of vanilla ice cream, and , grin

Oh pleaseeeeeeeeee!!!
RomanceRe: What Do Girls Hate In Relationships? by Rhea: 2:54pm On Apr 23, 2007
One issue that clearly stands out in all the comments is cheating.

I guess that's one big time pet peeve on every lady's list.


soulpatrol:
dress and look clean cool
as in no sagging pants, wear a belt please, clean, well-shaved beard, smell good etc

guys, we just dey give una hints wink
@Soulpatrol
I guess you wouldn't even start anything with this guy. It's quite unlikely he would start any of these during the relationship. You would know a pig from the start and do well to steer clear of his path.
RomanceRe: My Boyfriend Has Hired A Private Detective To Investigate Me! by Rhea: 3:55pm On Apr 18, 2007
Razorr,

It seems your BF has just told you what he may have been doing all along. He just told you that a very close friend of his is keeping a close eye on you. This may have been happening for quite sometime now, and he then chose now to tell you.

His intentions may be to instill fear in you. I guess he doesn't trust you, or may have reasons not to, or may be probing for a reason to distrust you, and then dump you.


If he doesn't trust you, then break up with him.
BusinessRe: How Do I Improve Profits In My Beauty Salon? by Rhea: 9:27am On Apr 17, 2007
In addition to Seun's advice,

Segregate the male section from the female section. maybe you need to just concentrate on one aspect. Ladies need some privacy when they do their hair (for their gossips etc). Same goes for guys too.

Also improve on your customer relationship. Treat each customer as you would Tyra Banks or Usher if either should walk into your shop.

You are running a service-providing venture. Customer satisfaction is key. This is one factor that lacks in most service-providing outfits in this country. And it costs dearly to win back a customer you lose, if at all possible.

CultureRe: I'm About To Marry An 'Outcast' (Osu) Guy by Rhea: 9:11am On Apr 17, 2007
The Osu caste system is an archaic practice. However, it may suprise most people that a good number of parents that are still led by this are well-read, well-educated and exposed people.

If you really love this guy and intend to marry him, then go ahead. Be ready to face all the oppposition that will come your way from every angle.
PoliticsRe: Nigeria's Image Was Badly Damaged On Oprah Today! by Rhea: 9:01am On Apr 17, 2007
Let's blame our founding fathers for not allowing the Igbos to seceed and have their own country (Biafra) when they made a move to do so 30 years ago.

If you think the Igboman is the cause of our downtrodden image abroad, join MASSOB and actualise the dream of a Biafran nation.

That way, we would have a nation of saints (Nigeria) and a colony of '419 kingpins' (Biafra), and enough of all these ethnic jingoism and finger pointing.

RomanceRe: Birthday Gifts For Your Girlfriend? by Rhea: 3:04pm On Apr 10, 2007
I would suggest you give your girlfriend a gift that signifies that you're a good listener. If you've been listening pretty well during the numerous chats you must have had with her, you will pick out a couple of things (neccessary things ooo!) she may have wished she had.

Then, you can suprise her and get her one of such items. This way, you tend to 'grant her wish' or 'make her wish come true'. Soemtimes, such things are not expensive.

Also a gift that shows you know her size (you pay attention to detail) also works pretty well. Shoes and clothes fall into this category. A small but rich birthday cake also sounds swell.

It all depends on how much you can reasonably and honestly afford.

Christianity EtcRe: Trousers Or Mini Skirts: Which Is A Sin? by Rhea: 1:47pm On Apr 10, 2007
A story was once told of a lady that switched from wearing trousers to mini skirts. Her reason was that by the time she wriggles out of the usually tight trousers, his man has lost his 'u-know-what'.

Ethically, I think the trousers is more conservative than the mini skirt. With the trousers, you only have a mental picture which could be blurred or clear depending on the pervertive index of your brain.

With the mini, you can actually see the light at the end of the tunnel, if you look long and look hard.
Nairaland GeneralRe: How To Make My Dog Bark? by Rhea: 1:35pm On Apr 10, 2007
Keep the dog in an area of your compound where people seldom pass. The dog is too playful probably because it's used to seeing lots of people. Don't let ot lose again except when it's pressed (you'll know when it starts whinning).

Also reduce the amount of food you give to the dog (if you're overfeeding the dog). Twice a day/once (heavy) is recommended.

I am no vet. But this has worked for me before. Should do for you too, even though six months sounds like a bit too late for this. But try shaa.
Christianity EtcRe: Gombe Muslim Students Have Put Me In Sorrow By Killing My Friend by Rhea: 10:20am On Apr 05, 2007
It is a pity that violence rooted in religious fanatism has once again claimed the precious life of yet another innocent person.

The fact still remains though that:
1. Quran, Bible, Grail etc are spiritual texts written/printed on paper.
2. The content of these texts remain meaningless until they are appropriately inscribed in the hearts and mind of the people that believe in them.

It is ironic to note though that:
1. Human beings are dropped and burnt to death for dropping a book.
2. A book, just like toilet paper (for wiping your bumbum amongst other things) is made of paper.

Condolences to those affected by this tragedy.
Shame to those who dare to look on and do/say nothing.

@Texazzpete

My last post was directed at the originator of this topic, and not to you.
In as much as my opinion does irritate you and contradict your own flawless views, please concentrate on the topic and not on someone else's candid and personal opinion. We are here to share and exchange views. My views are mine, wrong or right, stupid or wise, they still remain mine.
RomanceRe: .. by Rhea: 2:10pm On Mar 26, 2007
These are my thought and mine alone, and points to what I would think/do if I were wearing your shoes.

Your fiance has a good number of female friends he is playing second fiddle with. These are his alternatives should things fall apart between the two of you. They serve as his buffer.

While you may not be his ideal woman, (nobody suits that description), you are however No.1 on his list because amongst other things, you have a secure job IN THE UK. Even when you relocate, it still is a splendid internationally mobile job function. That is a plus to the financial security of his prospective family (with you).

Nine years or nine months, it's all the same considering that he's in Naija and you're in the UK. Never underestimate the power of distance. While he will not jeopardise your relationship with him (even though he already is), he may not let go of all those chicks in naija especially his ex. They will continue to creep around and meddle in your stuff every now and then.

So, which way forward? Better lay the facts to him on the table. Tell him what you think is going on. If you're wrong, he will prove you wrong. If he cannot, then you've got to be right.

As for the wedding, postpone. I hope you realise that most (say 80%) contemporary Nigerian men consider dating outside marriage as normal. Many will never admit this even to themselves, but their actions buttresses my opinion. This doesn't make me any happy, but it simply is the bitter truth.

I may sound a bit hard, but so is divorce, separation, infidelity, and life, sometimes.
Christianity EtcRe: Paying Tithes Or Giving To The Needy? by Rhea: 1:37pm On Mar 26, 2007
Who does your tithe go to?
God or the Pastor?

If to God, how?

If to the pastor/reverend etc, who does the pastor give his tithe to?

RomanceRe: Flirting Is Healthy? by Rhea: 9:45am On Mar 23, 2007
Flirting can be mad fun,

especially when that big booty secretary bends over my desk to ask a question,

with her creamy boobs harrassingly and aggressively starring at me through that tight top,

and I'm trying very HARD to concentrate

and at the same time pretending so much that I can make out what she's saying,

only for me to interrupt midway with

'could you come again with that question'.

Women! What would we do without you? grin
