SunShowAfrica: Just how long should two people date or spend time together in a romantic relationship before getting married. My friends Dosh and Dare started dating since 2015, but Dosh is thinking something must be wrong with her for allowing this thing drag on for too long, and although they will be marrying this year
she’s determined to make sure her own daughter will not date a guy for more than five years at most before they get married. Couldn't she just be somehow over-reacting or does she really have a genuine reason to be concerned?/ your response is highly appreciated The reason why its taking that long is because they have already been making love and very likely staying under the same roof. I mean can you imagine staying apart ad paying rents or living in separate houses for 10 years . No way Jose !! At this point marriage isnt necessary - Just go to courts and have a few friends at a restaurant and celebrate. If they were not intimate 6 months they would have gotten married. |

Couldn't she just be somehow over-reacting or does she really have a genuine reason to be concerned?/ your response is highly appreciated There are no rules and it is something that should have been clarified . For instance lets see after 6 or 12 months before getting married. Having waited that long means they both considered themselves " married already " don't tell me they don't have any kids ? Now, you mentioned daughter - they are already a couple - Live in couple. They could have just gone to the courts to legalize the thing but to share with the world - Marriage. |

China has been proven time and time again that they don't need anybody, they can have a very good country even in isolation.
USA has not yet proved the same. China needs the world . They are a manufacturing economy so things are made cheap but who gonna buy it ? The West and Europe, and The west are huge consuming economy. All those maga caps are made at 5 cents yet sold for $25US. China are huge pollutants and they also buy a lot of American debt .. so we need each other . |

Christianity Etc › Re: How A Nurse Used The Blood Of Jesus To Save Me From Death - My Testimony (Photo) by rickleye: 8:33pm On Jan 30, 2025 |
GistMedia0: DISCLAIMER: THIS IS MY PERSONAL TESTIMONY. I AM NOT TRYING TO PERSUADE OR COERCE ANYONE INTO ANY RELIGIOUS BELIEF.
A few years ago, after completing my compulsory six-month Industrial Training (IT) and waiting for my final year session to begin, I was working on a practical project for my IT defense, which was to be presented soon.
While using a very sharp knife to cut some materials, it slipped from my hand and landed right between my left thumb and index finger. The cut was so deep that I could literally see my bone. Blood gushed out like a fountain, soaking my room in minutes. 
Sensing the danger, I quickly poured hydrogen peroxide on the wound, hoping to stop the bleeding, but it didn’t work. The cut was too deep and wide, and I couldn’t even bear to look at it twice. In a panic, I tore a piece of fabric, wrapped it around my hand, and rushed to a nearby drugstore owned by a nurse.
As soon as she saw the depth of my wound, she gasped and asked what had happened. I just told her to proceed with the treatment, assuring her I’d explain later. She cleaned and dressed the wound with some liquid medication, and almost instantly, the bleeding stopped.
When she asked if I wanted stitches, I refused out of fear, insisting the wound would heal on its own.
THE UNEXPECTED TURN
After the final dressing and bandaging of the wound, I felt relieved as the nurse explained my treatment routine and the medications I needed to take. But suddenly, everything went blank. 
I felt empty, as if my soul was leaving my body. It was a painful, forceful separation, and I was utterly helpless. My body felt dry, drained of life. In those few moments, I experienced something beyond comprehension—I felt as though I was traveling between the past and future, reliving memories in flashes. My soul was crying, and my biggest thought was how my mother would react upon hearing that her son had died in school. 
It all happened so quickly. Just as I was about to collapse completely, I heard a loud cry: "THE BLOOD OF JESUS! OH, THE BLOOD OF JESUS!" 
Over and over, the nurse repeated these words. In that instant, my soul awakened, and an unexplainable surge of energy rushed through my body.
Apparently, while I was slipping away, the nurse noticed my eyes rolling back and turning white. Realizing I was losing consciousness, she immediately began pleading the blood of Jesus over me. That was how I came back to life!
A MIRACULOUS HEALING
As if that wasn’t enough, another miracle followed—the deep wound that should have taken weeks to heal started closing up within days. Even the nurse was astonished! She attributed it to me having good skin, but deep down, I knew it was God at work.
Despite my injury, I completed my project successfully and defended it excellently. Today, I have long graduated, healthy and strong, to the glory of God.  She shouldn’t have asked if you wanted stitches. A cut that wide would require it. You met the right kind of person . You could have died and gone to heaven . If I were you , she would become my close friend and confidant . |

Romance › Re: Wetin Dey Give Nigeria Girls Mind And Why Are They Useless {chat Screenshot} by rickleye: 8:08pm On Jan 30, 2025 |
liab: I met a Nigerian girl recently—she had a very innocent and youthful appearance, and nothing about her seemed materialistic. She just turned 20 last December.
Out of curiosity (once again) about Nigerian girls, I decided to test her by chatting with her on my alternative WhatsApp, using a playful "bad boy" vibe. To my greatest surprise, this girl was ready to go to a complete stranger’s house at 9 PM for two rounds—for just 20k.
Me as a guy, I wouldn’t even go to a stranger’s house by 9 PM. What gives them this kind of boldness? Why are so many of them like this? How are we supposed to find a wife in this generation? And if anything happens now, they’ll start playing victim.
This is why I don’t pity most of them—just look at the audacity! Imagine how many men she would have been with before she even reaches 27 or 30, only to then start going to church looking for a "God-fearing man." And mind you, this girl looks extremely innocent.
See part of our chat history below. She wasn’t going to come. 20k was just transport money which you would not see her ever |

Health › Re: The Fear Of Infection Is The Beginning Of Wisdom by rickleye: 7:57pm On Jan 30, 2025 |
GeeM: Recently, I got entangled with a lady that had terrible STI. I have always been a fan of raw sex because I don't feel anything with condom.
This lady in question is someone you could describe as a homely girl; wife material, so I never suspected in my wildest imagination that she would be carrying such terrible infection.
We met about 6months ago at a friend's wedding and exchanged pleasantries after which I collected her number. From then we started talking and our conversations went so well that one thing led to the other and we linked up and had it raw. Few days after the sex, I started experiencing this burning sensation in my private part and asif something was biting me at the tip of my penis. That was how my predicament began. I tried all the antibiotics I knew to no avail. This forced me to go to the hospital and see a doctor who prescribed another set of antibiotics yet it didn't work. I even took injections since tablets wasn't working yet no result.
Then my test results came out showing that I had antibiotics resistant strain of gonorrhea. This type of gonorrhea was resistant to the normal antibiotics used to treat it but luckily for me it was sensitive to a particular antibiotics but very expensive. One injection of the antibiotics cost 30,000 and I needed to take morning and night for atleast 3days. That's how I spent over 180k treating infection.
When I informed the babe about what I was passing through, she became very angry saying that I'm insulting her. That was how that relationship ended. After that incident, I became very cautious with the way I view women. Though I still enjoy my raw sex but I'm more careful how I go about it. Babes plenty but to find clean one no easy. Skin to skin dey sweet but na infection spoil am. I don’t understand the risk and reward of Raw . You just finished telling us the emotional strain and financial implications of going Raw and in addition and didn’t consider HIV or the girl getting pregnant . 🫃 |

Foreign Affairs › Re: If You're Born In America You're American - Nancy Pelosi by rickleye: 6:15pm On Jan 27, 2025 |
dometome: That's not true. In fact, John A Bingham and Thadeus Stevens, the men that promulgated this amendment, said it clearly that this amendment is NOT for foreign diplomats. It was only for people who have one or two connections to America, for example the former slaves, who were recently freed at that time, their connection to America is one, their parents were slaves in America, two they themselves were born in America and were slaves too, in America. So they qualify. Another were the native Americans, their connection to America, is their ancestral lands which the US government incorporated into America and made part of America, automatically the owners of those lands are subject to the US jurisdiction. It doesn't apply to you or me, I be Igbo man. Ok? You can argue till tomorrow for all you like. Not sure why you must mention “ I am an Igbo man “ you are Nigerian first . This is what ChatGPT says The 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution, ratified on July 9, 1868, grants citizenship and equal protection under the law to all persons born or naturalized in the United States. It was originally designed to ensure civil rights for former slaves following the Civil War. The amendment consists of several key sections: 1. Citizenship Clause: Grants citizenship to anyone born or naturalized in the U.S., which includes former slaves. 2. Due Process Clause: Ensures that no state shall deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law. 3. Equal Protection Clause: Requires that states provide equal protection under the law to all people within their jurisdictions. 4. Privileges or Immunities Clause: Prevents states from denying the privileges and immunities of U.S. citizens. The 14th Amendment has played a crucial role in advancing civil rights and has been the foundation for many landmark Supreme Court decisions, including those related to desegregation, voting rights, and same-sex marriage. This was amended in 1868 to include ALL born in United States. |

dometome: You are not making any sense. If I travel illegally to the US, that does not make me or my child (born or unborn) subject to the jurisdiction thereof of the US government, if I stay more than I am allowed to, I will be deported. Because I am still subject to the jurisdiction thereof of Nigerian government. So if the constitution is to be interpreted correctly, simply being born in the US is not enough, yes I met that part, what about the second? I did not meet that requirement, so the law does not apply to me. This law is the law that was used to make the descendants of the original African slaves citizens of the US. And later the Indians ( NOT the red dot one). I am NOT and American BTW. I be full blooded Igbo man. You as the parent may be illegal but your child born in the states is American . Period no if or buts. The same is in Canada. The birth certificate will state where you were born. this has always been the case. And that is what the constitution states. As long as you are born in any state of the US , you are the citizen. You are inferring when you state what you feel was the intent . It isn’t stated anywhere that the cause was to allow descendants of former African slaves to become citizens. |

dometome: what does this part mean? "subject to the jurisdiction thereof". I wonder why people won't make their own place better, they only want to go to another man's land, a place where that man has sacrificed a lot to make better. Shame on you Nigerians. Means cities, boroughs , states and local etc. You need to understand that most people at hearts are nomads. We move around. There is nothing wrong with someone looking for greener pastures. And the problem with Nigeria are in part the elected leaders. No vision for future. We are divided on tribalism. Till date the east are talking about separation and North won’t trust someone from east. Most of what works are what the British left behind . Why can’t we have running water in every home, why can’t we 24/7 electricity , why can’t we have secure homes and jobs for 80% of the populace. Why can’t we have running functional petrol and natural gas. Why can’t we have tarred roads at every street and smart buildings . Why do we need police men on the road with AK47’s asking for bribes ? When you step outside you realise life doesn’t have to be that hard. So when you turn on the TV and see sky scrappers or what your fellow Americans are pushing the boundaries of science and technology you ask yourself do they have 2 heads ? |

[b][/b] dometome: What part of the amendment says that? The privilege of United States citizenship is a priceless and profound gift.

CallTheCops: So I was at the barbershop to cut my hair, and a discussion arose about the timileyin guy who murdered and behead an innocent girl..
I couldn't believe what I was hearing from the men there, I was shocked!!
One man said "i no go too blame the guy, country hard" Another said "You know wetin the girl do am wey make am kill her?, we no know so make we no judge". And the most shocking was when another man said " the guy sef no get sense, how you go carry person head wey blood still dey drip put am for one paper bag, na him loose guard himself, if na experienced person, he for tie the head inside like 4 paper bags, e no get how anybody for suspect anything. People dey run am na, no be today".
These were mature men o, not young boys. I was so surprised and sad.
Most Nigerians lack empathy and conscience. It's why corruption, fraud and blood rituals are in prevalence all over the country. At a barbershop man …… not exactly the best place for a civilized conversation. Have the convo at a bank or church crowd go different now |

What's your opinion about this. Of course sex workers will lay like log of wood as they are not emotionally attached to you. If you invest in a relationship and ask the woman what makes her wet . She would tell you . Some pre-intimacy is necessary , some it would be playing with their clitoris, some could be pulling the hair , some kissing releases the passion juices. Some would like to be on top others from behind . Stop looking at the women as conquest and know her body and ask questions. |
