Something.....

I had a dream over the weekend that BEYNC won.....(not kidding)...lol

Exhaling......

agabaI23: Did anybody eat peanut over the weekend?

I did oooo, i hope that is not a bad thing, i had a fistful of gari, 3 tablespoons of milk and a fistful of g.nut....that right there is 600 calories, i was crying when i was eating it ....i love me gari alot....i love the taste but hate the calories.....though i had exercised (saturday) for 45 minutes, doing intense cardio....it felt good.

Yesterday, was 35 minutes of pilates for the abs, arms and legs, killing but great.....
Had an apple and small cup of coffee for breakfast this morning, lunch will be boiled potatoes and fish stew.....(can"t wait)

@ Eschala, i wish you luck ooooo.....everyone should have a great week.

Heyamback...woohooo!!!!

Onegai: Nope, there are any ways to skin a cat. Why should the man I love and have selected above all others be worried that someone who will never reach his standard has to resort to spending so much money trying to win me with gifts? My bobo calling and thanking him shows that my bobo is SO in charge of our relationship that I submitted the car keys to him before driving it. The toaster will get the message. Think like a tortoise, not a lion, and you'll get everything you want in life. I know a man of 7 yrs marriage, his wife shows him all the gifts she gets, he smiles and says "honey I love you". They have problems, but by encouraging her to be open with him, he's in total control. Once in a while, vex for your woman, but when the situation is tough, be firm and loving.

Why should she collect the gift in the first place?

Okay ladies!!!!!! it is ok, abeg, this post is supposed to be for mothers who are planning on weaning or feeding their babies...please lets stop this insults, it is not healthy, especailly not on this post....Abeg make una no vex, exchange BB pin or email addy and carry on....

On a serious note, lets stop this quarrel....please.

Idowuogbo: Ronkus! Ama ja o! I dey toast Dboi nau! No spoil runs for me ke

OOO abeg no vex oooo, shey you have de thing wey you go bring come-put ontop table?....if you don't, just find your level jejely....The poster and DK get table, and they will empty their pockets for each other ontop that table....

desari: Nairalanders,

I am a career woman in my late 20's living in the U.S. It has been almost impossible for me to meet good Nigerian men much less Nigerian men at my financial level. As you all know the U.S is very big; i generally don't hang out with Nigerians..not that i don't want to, i just don't know where and how to go about meeting up with my people. When i do go out to naija lounges or clubs in my area, all i find are little kids playing around or 419ers( which i would rather remain single than have anything to do with them). I have tried the church avenue, but i am catholic, and catholic churches in the U.S are much different from naija catholic churches. I live in NYC, so anyone that can give me pointers on where to meet eligible professional Naija men would be great.

I have been very blessed and fortunate in my chosen career, and i would want a partner that can pull his own weight financially in a relationship. Though i have accepted that i would most likely do much better than a potential partner, i can never respect a man that would find it hard to give me money to cook food in the house and take care of some bills, instead of assuming i will take care of it since i make much more. Akatas and white men chase me all day, but i would rather settle down with a Nigerian man(preferably yoruba) i am half yoruba and half something else I grew up in naija, so i speak yoruba and can cook naija food well well.

Let me add that i am well mannered and come from a great family. Guys and girls, if you have single brothers who are financially stable, between 29 and 35 years old looking to settle down, please IM me. Thanks!

send a private message to a NLder 'Dayokanu" both of you share the same dreams....he lives in Texas, he might just be the "groundnut in your gari" and you can visit texas or atlanta over the weekend, i hear there are more Nigerians' in those States.

maclatunji: Were you with them during their courtship to come to such a bold conclusion? You are giving advice you cannot follow as an individual.

Tunji...no need to use panadol for another person's headache, you are talking that way because you are a man...

Ok...do you want us to tell her to divorce her husband some people are lurking round this thread, they are yet to read "divorce your husband" from the so-called cabals that is appearing to them in their dreams.

My first post was asking what thelady had inmind? well since she is more comfortable with speaking through your fingers, ask her what she wants to do? she knows her husband better, she should spend more time taking care of herself, working and doing other things, her husband will come around, if he doesn't, well good luck with that one.

maclatunji: If you allow most people walk over you, they Will. I have not said the man is eager to keep the marriage. However, she needs to find out if she is in a relationship worth fighting for. By taking bold steps and seeing how her husband reacts, she will find the solution to the conflict and she can then move forward.

She should 'do her' and stop snooping around her husband's business, she knew he was going to be a womanizer before they got married, the solution she wants, is what i don't understand...

joeydozzy: I hate love stories

I love ....love-stories.....

rokiatu: Imran Khan? Damn you must be younger than I thought.

No, i can be his sugar-momma....

maclatunji: There's a slight difference of my understanding of your previous post and this elaboration. I don't have all the answers but flirting online won't solve her problems. I think she needs to draw the line, the husband has to be told that she will not take his cheating anymore and she should take practical steps to prove it. No more intimacy until he changes and she should start getting resources to be able to live without his support. If the man has any desire to keep the marriage he would start making changes.

hAAAA!!! and you think telling him will solve the problems, the man is not hiding it. So what makes you think he wants the marraige at all cost?? even if it means leaving his booty calls? Na so...

MRbrownJAY: Kai sista Ronke, thats a big generalization....what you should have said is that many men go to women searching for something "special", and each woman's action/vibe/character will be what we men use to decide if we want to try to discover more of her or not. it has a LOT to do with how the coochie was handed to us and what the gal did during/afterwards.
not all ONS are automatically looked down upon (not in my world anyway).

, you are funny, there was no point beating around the bush, i just hit the nail on the head....gbamm!!!, men go looking for something from a woman, it is either, they chop and clean mouth, or get hooked, eating that thing....

MRbrownJAY: that girl could also wait for 6months before handing the cootie cat over, and the result would still be the same. toto is just that:TOTO. if a tree has bad roots, then it will always bares bad fruits, regardless of how you water it.

If she had waited for 2 weeks it would have been better, some men know how to target the easy babe, especially when they are on 'fire', if you know how to play the game, you will be a retainer, who ever the person might.

Goodmorning everyone.....

So, there was no exercise for me on wednessday, but yesterday..did 30 minutes of yoga detox and weight loss.....it was nice, had fun doing it..Everyone should please have a lovely weekend....take care guys....

J12: 1. Less population

Right.

J12: 2. Most Nigerians lived in rural areas and were uneducated hence they survived on the rural/traditional economy.

Right, most lived in Rural areas, i do not agree with the uneducated part, majority of my father's generation went to scholl, if not college, at least had high-school certificate and they could still get jobs with that.

J12: 3. The standard of living then was very low.

Yea, everybody lived within their means, now we have the oil thieves, yahoo-yahoo, drug barons they larger the population, the more thieves we are breeding. Everyone wants to live large and do not have the where-withals to do so, they end up stealing from others, are we going to call that growth? or a big decline.

Katsumoto: Nigerians have a strong sense of survival; many are surviving on the barest minimum. Oil mostly funds the ostentatious lifestyles of the rich and the wannabees. If oil disappears, ostentatious lifestyles will mostly disappear but Nigerians will continue to survive. They survived without it for centuries and will survive after its gone. The people that should be worried about oil are those who have numerous girlfriends, houses, cars, foreign bank accounts, etc.

Thank you!!!!

jmaine: Are we in the past ?

We are not in the past, but how did Nigeria survive then without100% or 70% contribution from the oil sector It is a simple question..
- we all know that things were much more easier then, asper what my parents say....
- We are not in the past, but the present seems or is worst than the past..isn't it?.

J12: Oil funds the budget, oil is our life, we cannot live without oil, the suffering will be unbearable.

Then how did Nigeria survive in the past?

[quote author=Mrs.Chima]Would there ever be an universal unity with colored/Black folks?

Why is it when I see other nationalities...there are more unity amongst them than those of darker melanin? When one is removed from their original birthright...does it make them better than those who haven't made the total transition?

What do you think is the reason why there are so much disunity regarding Black/colored folks?

Let keep it real.[/quote]The answer is NO, the only reason that comes to mind right now, is because of our selfish nature, the average black man thinks about himself and what he can get from others. They would betray themselves in the long run, as it was during the time of slavery.

Katsumoto: Let’s not forget that Nigerians survived for centuries without crude oil and that there are countries that don’t have crude oil.

Well said!!!!

Nigerians with over-analysis...we love analysing, explaining and dissecting stuffs theoretically...all this GDP calculations and formulars is from the text books....the practical aspect is being ignored. Lets forget about text book for awhile and the first class majority graduated with, and just literally explain the data above without reading too much meanings to it.

Do not get that 'play hard to get twisted oooo'....some lady thinks is telling a guy off, immediately he winks or says hi, you see some ladies eyeing the guy or hissing, some wear this big frown on their faces.

In my own view..it is not getting easily laid....majority of the guys, come to you for one thing, "to get laid" once they are done, they are off, to the next available chic...I had a friend who was always so easily laid and easily dumped....she would call me the next morning, " Ronke, it has happened again oo,the guy has dumped me again" my question would always be, "did you sleep with him"? we know what the answer would be.

There is nothing wrong in going on couple of dates in an open place where the guy in question will not grab and r/a/p/e you, there is nothing wrong in being polite and approachable. You just have to have class and love yourself...not with unnecessary pride and ego.... you will be surprised the type of men, you will be attracting.


Everyone woman has and owns the keys to her legs....

What do you think you should do....? At least before you ask that question, you will have something at the back of your mind to do, tell us what it is, then we will know how to advice you....

This is sad!!!!!...

It just shows that s/e/x is an innate thing.....everyone is born with it....though the environment please a huge role in quickly developing it in the young minds...when adults do nasty stuff infront of the kids, what do they expect??...if you like beat them from now till next year...what has been inscribed in the brain cannot be changed. All the parents have to do now, is educate those/their kids on S/e/x.

[quote author=MOGUL.O]Na wa oooo! what is kpekusing then?[/quote]I knew you were going to ask me what kpekusing meant....let me break it down for you once and for all, so that we don't derail this thread.
1. to have s/e/x
2. to b.a.n.g
3. to f....k another.....hope you understand now....?

pwityjj: always TUFACE!!!!!! yeee!!!

Ewww!!!! Tuface!!! tufia!!! i don't know why i don't like that guy....love his music though, but can't date him for a day...

[quote author=MOGUL.O]Please what is the meaning of KNACK?[/quote]What is that ikebe -super...i used to read when i was much younger.... hmmm!!! i think it is "Nackson" unless i am not spelling it right....it is my own way of saying kpekusing.....

So the noise about oil sector contributing majorly to Nigeria income is a big lie....let me get my hoes and cutlasses and go back to farming abeg....i have been interested in farming from Adam...

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU GAT TO BE KIDDING!!!! SO HE JUST KNACKED THE LADY FREE OF CHARGE.....CHEI!!! SEE SENSE....
