Romance / Sexual Compatibility. You & Her Thing May Not Be Connecting by CandyOps(m): 7:09pm
Come let me show you why testing the goods is vital before final purchase is not such a bad idea.

If you're like me who is single and searching you must have come in contact with a lot of women. You may have to kiss a fair share of toads to find the charming princess.

I've come across girls with loads of past Trauma hanging around their sexual life and it has completely affected the way they perceive sexual activities.

Once you play reach the Kontus Arena her brains will automatically shut down her entire reproductive organs in response to past traumatic events.

She'll stay having uncontrollable muscle spasms. Especially if she experienced some sort of abuse or pain in her first sexual experience.

Another group of women who have this condition of sexual incompatibility are those whose first sexual experience was in within a cultural or religious setting.

Where they pay little attention to pleasure. Giving young girls the don't play with the Kontus and don't even look at it rule.

This pain associated with sex can be as a result of other things that are not an illness.

Maybe dryness.
Lack of sex, big sized dick or an underlying illness like and STD or pelvic wall issues. Or sometimes it's as simple as a yeast infection.

Where she feels the pains and how long she feels it is important. Is it at the vulva or entrance of her vagina or deep in her pelvic floor? Do you experience pains and how long did it last? What positions did you notice it more?


If the pains continues after sex then it could be something more serious. or could be as a result of past abuse.

Most of cases of abuse goes unreported so the victims don't really process the info and hence they don't heal. If left untreated...

...This will lead to cases like Vaginismus or Painful Sex a.k.a Dyspareunia in med terms.

Is dyspareunia bad?
The medical term for painful intercourse. It is lasting or recurrent genital pain that occurs just before, during or after sex.[/i]

talk with your healthcare professional if you're having painful intercourse. Treatments focus on the cause and can help stop or ease this common problem.


Vaginismus on the other hand is a condition in which involuntary muscle spasm interferes with vaginal intercourse or other penetration of the vagina.

You'll try to penetrate no way
You'll apply lubricant, coconut oil or Olive oil yet no way in. It'll almost seem like that Kontus entrance is blocked.

This often results in pain with attempts at sex.

Often it begins when vaginal intercourse is first attempted. Vaginismus may be considered an older term for pelvic floor dysfunction


For example, I have met 3 girls in my entire adult life who had a form of Vaginismus and it completely killed their sexual life and urges psychologically.

The only girl I dated who was able to grow past that did so because she wasn't abused on her first try at sex.

When you get taken advantage of sexually like Diddy and Kelz does ...

It's like when something shocking happens to you and you can't seem to snap out of it . Your brain didn't even have time to process it. ..

Girls who whose first sexual experience was unfortunately a rape usually have that issue.

Another likely cause of sexual incompatibility is allergy to latex.
You can be perfectly fine with latex condoms from the start but grow into the allergy.

Run check before final purchase because no be hand wey dem take the give monkey water dem take dey collect cup back.

Arsenal played the game, goal keeper was good...really good, all the defending...delay tactics ...antics and all are part of modern football...ref was also high on something....but a team with a man down against City for over 50mins deserves their flowers
Truly incredible display from Arsenal.

Romance / Re: DNA Test Results Are Lies: There Is No Such Thing As DNA, Claims Muslim Cleric by JessicaRabbit(f): 6:50pm
I was warned that my post was "too long", so here's PART 2 of my original reply:

DevilsEqual:
2)On the Dichotomy Between Intelligent Design and Natural Selection:
I agree that natural selection and intelligent design aren't inherently antagonistic. Most Creationists that I know of and the few i read about, believe an intelligently planned framework governs the processes of natural selection. According to them and what I also believe , the origin of life and the emergence of large systems cannot be explained by natural selection, but it can explain small changes and adaptations within species(Variation, mutation or everything Microevolution). Although organisms may adapt to their circumstances through natural selection as seen in the wild, the fundamental complexity of life itself suggests a higher design

An example to this, is "Darwin Finches". I saw a Journal by the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) in the United States and i followed through because it modeled what Darwin did from Day1 and it turned out to prove some Microevolution

Thing is, As one who understand Scientific concepts and all, its unreasonble and impossible to discard Natural Selection entirely, cause of Microevolution, only that its hard to rely on it as the answer to everything, especially when Researchers and Some notable Scientists who have explored our Universe themselves were forced at a point to agree that these things are highly organized
I agree these Natural selection may have done its part, but it still did it under someones guide and direction

This position undermines the primary argument for intelligent design, which often relies on the premise that complexity cannot arise through natural processes. As for your assertion that natural selection explains "small changes and adaptations within species" but not the "origin of life and the emergence of large systems," I'd argue that this distinction is arbitrary and does not have any empirical basis, so I'm not really sure how you came up with that. The scientific consensus is clear: natural selection, coupled with genetic drift, mutation, and gene flow, has been instrumental in shaping the diversity of life on Earth. As for your claim that "the fundamental complexity of life itself suggests a higher design": this is where the argument from ignorance creeps in. Just because we currently don't fully understand the origins of life or the emergence of complex systems doesn't mean we must invoke supernatural explanations. The scientific community is actively exploring alternative explanations, such as abiogenesis, RNA world hypothesis, and others. I'll continue to repeat this obvious banality until it finally registers on your subconscious.

In his book "The Grand Design" by Stephen Hawking and Leonard Mlodinow. In Chapter 1, "The Rules of the Game," on page 7 of the 2011 edition, Hawkings said something about Law of Universe and the Principle guiding them


in his book "The Nature of Space and Time" (1999), Stephen Hawking said again that:

The idea that the universe is governed by a set of principles is not merely a concept but a fundamental aspect of reality. The organization we see in the universe arises from these deep-seated principles.

Einstein said same about our highly organizational Universe when he said "The human mind, no matter how highly trained, cannot grasp the universe. We are in the position of a little child, entering a huge library whose walls are covered to the ceiling with books in many different tongues. The child knows that someone must have written those books. It does not know who or how. It does not understand the languages in which they are written. The child notes a definite plan in the arrangement of the books, a mysterious order, which it does not comprehend, but only dimly suspects. That, it seems to me, is the attitude of the human mind, even the greatest and most cultured, toward God. We see a universe marvelously arranged, obeying certain laws, but we understand the laws only dimly. Our limited minds cannot grasp the mysterious force that sways the constellations. I am fascinated by Spinoza's Pantheism."

I dont even want to start with Kepler, Copernicus and Newton and thats because we all know they were Theists with limited Knowledge in an era where disbelief is considered heretic. I deliberately left out quotes Modern Biologists and Evolutionists cause you may not know most of them

The quotes you've cited here only serve to highlight the universe's governable principles and organization. Okay, cool. But this is merely a statement of an obvious fact. Once again, this doesn't even come close to establishing a supernatural designer. The laws of physics, while remarkable, are just the rules of the game. They don't explain why the game is being played. You're working with guesses and assumptions based on gaps in knowledge which is the very definition of an ad ignorantiam fallacy. Hawking also argued that the universe's origins can be explained through spontaneous creation, where the laws of physics are self-contained and require no divine intervention. As for Einstein, he was a pantheist and his views were mostly inspired by Spinoza, and Spinoza's philosophy, as outlined in his work "Ethics," describes God or Nature as a unified, underlying substance that governs the universe through necessary laws and principles, rather than through purposeful design or intervention. Einstein's own views on the nature of God and the universe closely mirrored this perspective.

My point is that , I'm trying to Appeal to Authority here to show you that not only the laymen with zero understanding of Science would biasedly see everything as Intelligent design, but that even the most highly revered and most notable Scientists agreed that our Universe and everything in it is so structured that everything screams a "Grand Design" and they did this even in their unbelief

So its not just me...They inclusive

You can't just commit a fallacy and handwave the fact like it doesn't matter. We call them fallacies because they're flaws in logical reasoning that can undermine your entire argument. The term "Grand Design" can refer to the elegant laws and structures of the universe, not necessarily implying a designer. There's a subtle difference there. If you observe closely, many scientists who use that term do not even endorse intelligent design or creationism outrightly. They may just use the term as a colorful expression in a literature. It doesn't matter how many scientists you can selectively quote in isolation to make your point, you are still ignoring the broader scientific consensus supporting natural evolution and cosmology.

"Assume you were informed that an unabridged dictionary was created when ink from the explosion splattered onto the walls and ceiling of a printing company. Could you believe it? How much more incredible is it that a random big bang created the ordered universe and everything in it?"

We already know that dictionaries are human creations, compiled through meticulous effort and intelligence. How do we know this? Because we have witnessed the creation of dictionaries. We know how they're made and we know that the processes involved are repeatable. So the analogy in this question is dead on arrival because it is predicated on a false equivalence. The universe is much greater and larger in scope than a human dictionary. According to our current understanding of physics and human knowledge, the universe's evolution from the Big Bang is well-supported by scientific evidence and our understanding of natural laws, and it is the best theory we've got so far to explain how our universe came to be. If you've got something better, you'll have to show it.

Okay, lets move away from big bang, let explore Richard Dawkins Organic Soup formation theory

According to evolutionary theory, the two main processes leading to the emergence of life are
(1) the presence of the appropriate primitive atmosphere and
(2) the concentration of an organic soup of "simple" molecules required for life in the oceans.
)3)These give rise to nucleotides and proteins, which are complicated chemical substances that
(4) unite and acquire a membrane,
(5) generate a genetic code, and (6) begin replicating.
Whats the probabilities of all all these coming up randomly?

Actually, the theory of evolution doesn't propose that life emerged randomly or spontaneously. It only suggests that life arose through a series of chemical reactions and interactions governed by physical and chemical laws. It relies only on the predictable outcomes of these laws. I mentioned this in previous posts, but the conditions on early Earth were very different from those today, with a reducing atmosphere, intense radiation, and frequent chemical reactions. As for the "organic soup", that concept is mostly outdated. Research suggests life likely emerged in hydrothermal vents or other environments with energy gradients. Nucleotides and proteins aren't complicated substances that suddenly appeared; they're the result of gradual chemical evolution. Calculating probabilities for these events definitely won't be easy due to the vastness of time, chemical diversity and complexity of interactions involved. However, scientists have demonstrated in experiments and simulations that (1) simple organic compounds can form through abiogenic processes, (2) RNA and DNA nucleotides can assemble and replicate without enzymes, and that (3) Vesicles and membranes can self-assemble from lipid molecules. The probability of life emerging may be low, but definitely not impossible. Have you considered how vast the universe is, and the number of potentially habitable planets?

I would have like to break them down from you using already carried out experiments but u go talk say I dey poke holes for Science, I just wanna debunk the "Undesigned" myth or can i carry on?


Its fine if you dont want that. I still have more evidences of design. I will now add Our Universe and The Human Eyes to the list

1)Our Universe
2)Animal Eyes
3) Human Brain
4)DNA complexities in that order

And no, Im not throwing God into the mix, na calculations, pattern checking, weaving and arrangements we wan do. We want to see how architecturally and mathecatically precise this socalled Designer is

Looking at your bullet points, I can take a good guess where you're going with each of those points but I'll wait to see if you might surprise me this time.

If it was tribalism, it would have been just Yoruba, but the person is even asking for a Muslim Yoruba... So this is more than that.

I'm Yoruba and I stayed in Rivers state (Bonny) during my short training, along with some other tenants (naval officers), the landlord was fond of insulting Yorubas until I stopped greeting the man before he started showing some respect. We were only 2 Yorubas living in the house, any little thing, that's why I don't like Yoruba, this that...

Igbo landlords in Lagos are also very selective and prefer Igbo tenants, if you don't believe, go to areas in Lagos where there are many Igbo landlords... I've seen an advert like that on Tiktok "Igbos preferred".

This tribalism of a thing is all over the country.

Romance / Re: DNA Test Results Are Lies: There Is No Such Thing As DNA, Claims Muslim Cleric by JessicaRabbit(f): 6:48pm
I was warned that my post was "too long", so here's PART 1 of my original reply:

DevilsEqual:



Lol....The ban for this is over, so I'll be quoting you with this going forward. This one can handle u better than the rest



Lemme start this way. I bumped into a thread yesterday where they analyzed the Trump vs Harris debate and they made mention of a debating tactics called Gish Galloping. That shii best defines your method of argument and it even highlighted every single feeling i've complained about as regards debating with you. It means 'A Gish gallop is a rhetorical technique in which a person in a debate attempts to overwhelm their opponent by presenting an excessive number of arguments, often without regard for their accuracy or strength. This rapid-fire delivery makes it difficult for the opponent to address each point effectively, potentially leading to confusion or the appearance of being unprepared. Gish galloping can be a powerful tool for someone who is less knowledgeable about a subject, as it can create the illusion of being well-informed and knowledgeable. However, it's ultimately a dishonest and ineffective debating tactic.'. Thats you.

I don't see how I've "gish galloped" you anywhere in this discussion. I presented specific questions, targeted towards your understanding of the word "design". They're not a barrage of random, unrelated points -- which would have made it an actual gish gallop fallacy. So once again, you have no idea what you're talking about. My question was intended to uncover your understanding of design, and how complexity is supposed to demonstrate design. That's literally it.

Now back to your questions.

Firstly, I am not saying that there are no alternative explanations for complexity. I acknowledge other theories but the problem is that the other theories have too many gaps, assumptions, inconsistencies and are so incoherent that its hard to even use them to prove complexities in any logical debate. Evolution and Natural Selection/Creationist arguments seem to be more sound than the rest and thats why most people Naturally lean towards them

Well at least you've conceded that alternative explanations may exist, although your concession is promptly undermined by the assertion that these alternatives are inherently flawed. Your criticism of alternative theories as "incoherent" and "full of gaps" is a curious case of pot-and-kettle logic. You do realize that intelligent design, your preferred explanation which you've been touring as superior, relies heavily on an untestable, supernatural entity -- a notion that is, by definition, incoherent within the scientific framework. You realize this, right? The "gaps" in other scientific theories like Natural Selection and Evolution are, at the very least, acknowledged and actively researched. Intelligent Design's gaps, on the other hand, are fundamental and irreconcilable with empirical evidence. Also, kindly spare me the blatant appeal to popularity. The truth of a scientific theory isn't determined by its popularity, but rather by the strength of its empirical evidence and predictive power. I would have expected you to know this since you claim to value science so much.

Lets assume we go with Big Bang: The Big Bang theory explains the creation of the universe but falls short in explaining how life first evolved. Furthermore, some scientists have stated that the Big Bang theory is insufficient to explain how the universe came into being. Some even went so far as to say that "to explain the original creation of the universe, another theory describing even earlier times will be needed."

The Big Bang actually has nothing to do with the origins of life. You should probably learn the distinction between cosmology and abiogenesis to understand this. Cosmology focuses on the origins and evolution of the universe as a whole, while abiogenesis explores the emergence of life from non-living matter. Conflating these two fields will only create unnecessary confusion. The Big Bang makes a good case explaining the formation of subatomic particles, atoms, and eventually, the large-scale structures we observe today. However, it does not, nor does it pretend to, address the origin of life. So to suggest that the Big Bang theory "falls short" in explaining life's origin is a misplaced criticism. Regarding the claim that some scientists find the Big Bang theory insufficient, this is a classic case of cherry-picking. A handful of dissenting voices do not undermine the overwhelming consensus among cosmologists and physicists. The Big Bang theory has withstood decades of rigorous testing and observation. The fact that a handful of scientists acknowledge the limitations of the theory doesn't render it useless. In fact, it just serves to reflect the inherent nature of scientific inquiry. Theories are refined or expanded as new evidence emerges, and scientists actively explore areas beyond the Big Bang, such as quantum gravity, inflationary theory, and multiverse hypotheses. These investigations are simply meant to refine our understanding, not force us to simply pick and choose between competing scientific theories.

Also, when you consider most of the things written in Stephen Hawkings books like the A brief history of time or On the origin of the universe, you'd see man made more bogus claims than Bible Believers.

Interesting. According to you, a work backed by extensive scientific evidence has little merit compared to a book about talking bushes and men turning into pillars of salt. It's quite remarkable how some of you guys don't see the ridiculousness in statements like this.

Plus(I know you'd cancel this but make i still talk)...When a nuclear bomb explodes, matter is converted uncontrollably into energy, leading to chaos, as was demonstrated in 1945 when these bombs completely destroyed Hiroshima and much of Nagasaki in Japan. But the universe is lovely and harmonious, far from chaotic! That theory wouldnt answer many questions about life on a molecular level sef.

Sorry, but the transformation of matter into energy is not chaos. It's a fundamental principle of physics, and a predictable, measurable process governed by the laws of thermodynamics. If that's chaos, then I'll have to wonder what your definition of order is? And what does this statement even mean: "the universe is lovely and harmonious"? Are you referring to the aesthetic appeal of, say, supernovae or the movement of planetary orbits, because those are also the result of deterministic physical processes. At the molecular level, I'm still waiting for your explanation of how intelligent design accounts for the myriad inefficiencies, contradictions, and vestigial structures found in living organisms. The vestigial pelvis in whales, the recurrent laryngeal nerve's detour, or the molecular machinery shared across domains of life -- do these scream "design" to you? I also asked you a question about the instincts of a moth which you're yet to reply i.e why do moths constantly feel compelled to endanger themselves by flying into flames?

ll) Another one is Panspermia: This one is easily discarded because it also didnt address the topic of how life first began, also, its proposition that life on Earth could not have originated spontaneously but that it had to have come from the outer space and then floated into Earth, only serves to relegate the issue of life's origin to a more distant and forbidding context. We all know that life in the harsh atmosphere of outer space would face several hostile. So, is it possible that life originated on its own somewhere in the cosmos, made it to Earth under extremely difficult circumstances, and eventually evolved into life as we know it? Of course not. Who would lean towards this

With all of it's imperfections, panspermia is still an alternative explanation worth exploring. And I wasn't looking for a specific example. I just wanted to know if you're open to the possibility that there might be other explanations beyond your dichotomous view of intelligent design vs. natural selection. Your casual dismissal of the theory is just another reflection of your lack of intellectual curiosity.

Theories of life emergence by philosophers(Artists and the Ancient Grecian guys) is total bull crap.

That's a nonsensical claim, considering many of the foundational concepts in modern science were first proposed by philosophers. You should really brush up on your science history before uttering such ridiculous pronouncements.

There might be a middle stance for one to consider outside Evolution or Creation, it vould even still be under Science but I assume that theory hasnt just been developed by anyone so far, so yea, we all are either for evolution or Creation. No other third stance.

The universe is a pretty big place with a lot of room for innovation and the discovery of new knowledge. I think it's highly presumptuous of you to casually assume that we've already exhausted all the possibilities.

This isnt from my standpoint and it has nothing to do with my subjective assessment and thats the reason why i dropped multiple Scientific reasech articles to prove to you that even they, in their conclusions agreed that these things are too Complex to be explained away by just fictionally throwing in Natura Selections

I didnt in any of my argument speak from my own perspectives and thats because i know i'm relevant in the grand scheme of things. That led me to bring in those screenshots and in every one of them, the Scientists agreed they were Complex.

Those scientists may agree on complexity, but that's where the consensus ends. What's missing is the leap from complexity to intelligent design, which you are struggling to demonstrate so far. Correlation doesn't imply causation, my friend. Don't hide behind "the scientists said so". They're not oracles. Their findings are open to interpretation. Where are your thoughts? Citing studies doesn't absolve you of critical thinking, I hope you know that. By the way, how do you really define fiction, because you seem to be confusing natural selection, an observed, documented and experimentally confirmed process, with intelligent design, which, conveniently, has no testable hypothesis, let alone empirical evidence. How much longer are you going to keep up this wilful self deceit?

If a researcher , after all his experiments documented that that Natural selection didnt apply, why why should i agree with you, a zealous Atheists with no known journal written from experimental researches, one who is only wishing that Science should remain perfect with zero failure. You can check those weblinks I dropped

If a researcher, after all their experiments, documented that natural selection "didn't apply", then I'd be the first to question the validity of those experiments or the researcher's methodology. But until then, I think I'll just stick to the overwhelming, peer reviewed body of evidence that actually, you know, supports the theory of evolution. And maybe you're right about me being a "zealous atheist". I am quite zealous about the idea that we should base our beliefs on reason and evidence, rather than on ancient texts or creative fantasies.

Romance / Re: Nigerians Dating Indians What’s Your Experience With Difficult Parents? by Entanglement: 5:59pm
DuBLINGreenb:


lol 🤣 I think we are due for an Update.

Yes you are right. She broke up with me over a very long WhatsApp text talking about how she never wanted us to break up and she intended to come back to me and what not but after going back she’s had a third and fourth person perspective and our relationship is toxic because I do things to make her jealous and she gets very very jealous which she used to swear she was never ever jealous before she met me but with me she gets so jealous she started doing things she didn’t think she would do things if she saw in the movie she’d say this b!tch is crazy so I made her a crazy b!tch

Well long story short we are toxic and everyone wants us to break up, I also kind of reluctantly agreed because I know with 0 support any little issue we have we have no one to turn to anybody we turn to says break up even if it’s just a normal couple issue like deciding what to eat for dinner, assuming “I wanted goat curry and she wanted Jollof” and she told her friends or anyone the next thing they’ll say is you guys should break up, but when her sister was being beat up physically assaulted by an Indian man they’d console her to stay forgive him 🤣, and she stayed for a while till it became too much she was going to d!3, that was when finally they said Ok, but with us the slightest inconvenience they want us to break up,

I personally don’t care what people think or say because for most of my life I wanted to please people, I tried but they were never ever pleased it was never enough if I get 3rd place in school they’d ask what about the 2 people ahead of you, if my nails were clean they’d ask what about your hair if that was done they’d ask what about your socks if you did all you had to do they’d say “And so what? You want a medal for doing what you’re supposed to do? 🤣” so for me people have never really cared about me, my opinions or my interests other than my mom and dad of course so I don’t care much about other peoples opinions but she does, she loves to please people especially her family. Her dad number one, her sisters, her mum, her uncles and aunts etc.

When she was leaving I told her, distance makes the heart grow fonder, nostalgia can fool you into thinking something bad was good. And everything I told her has happened, the first few days she arrived she told me everyone is Nice to her, they love her here, why did she ever leave. I didn’t want to spoil the moment by reminding her all the things she told me went down especially between her and her mom.
(Long story short her mom had 2 girls and wanted a boy some horoscope or family or poorly done test or whatever told her she’d have a boy to continue her husbands legacy but that child turned out to be a girl. And her husbands brothers all had boys she was the only one without a boy so Maybe she held a small tiny grudge against that baby for not being a boy, she bought boy clothes and even gave the kid male haircuts as a child. She and this child would have lots of disagreements and fights.)

So I told her chill, relax savour the moment you’re still an adult visitor in their eyes who came to visit bearing gifts so they’ll treat you with respect and adoration wait 2 weeks you’ll become the normal child that left many years ago.
We started communicating less and less and stopped communicating entirely at a point, for a while things were rosy for her and her family… until the mom decided to arrange marry her to her friends son (which if you remember the mom promised we won’t arrange marry you till at-least 3 years or till you finish the program you said you want to do)
But the guy she was to be arranged married to didn’t like the fact that she had friends and she visits the mall and she didn’t like the guy the way he was so opinionated/authoritarian and his views on women and their roles in the family and society etc. So they both tried to frustrate meetings and marriage plans But she told me she stopped communicating because of the whole arrange marriage thing going on, and since she wasn’t communicating I was giving back the same energy.

As if that was not enough the mom went through her phone one evening and found pictures of her at a friends place with weed aka mary Jane aka loud aka canna (it’s legal in Canada) but that picture was in India in India it’s not exactly legal not that I know off but it’s easily available and accessible.

The mother also saw pictures and videos of her with me (no weed/mary J) (well they knew about me already) but the pictures were a little steamy, also she found some stuff about her ex who is a Muslim Bangladeshi (if you don’t know Indians and Pakistanis and some parts of Bangladesh don’t get along well also Hindus and Muslims don’t get along well long story short allegations of forced conversions, marriage jihad, disrespect and discrimination both ways, cows being held in high regard by Hindus and not so much by Muslims to taunt Hindus etc etc) the mom freaked out and long story short she (the girl not the mom) sustained some scares and bruises from the mom.


It’s been under 2-3 months and everything had already gone downhill fast.
They were watching a movie one day and she woke her mom up to go sleep inside, the mom decked her and shouted at her not to do that again, the rest of the family didn’t agree with the mom saying her actions were rash the mom became livid😡 saying that they were supporting the girl over her in her own home.

The mom is dramatic from all I’ve heard not just from the girl but her sisters and other people that night the mom even threatened su!c!de so things became extremely tense so tense that she left the house that night and no one noticed till 24 hours later.

Where was she gonna go? at the time no family wanted her to stay with them. So she went to a friends place for awhile then a shared hostel remember this was someone everyone back home promised heaven and earth if you leave him and come back home you will add many years to my life, we will add you to the Will, we will forgive you, we will treat you better, we won’t force you to do anything you don’t want to do etc etc etc.

Long story short one day she calls me high/drunk and just kept crying and telling me she misses me and she wants me back and reminiscing on all our inside jokes and pet peeves and pet names all that but I didn’t know what to make of any of these because I’m thinking she’s just high/drunk and stressed, she calls me a second time the following day same time same type of talk and days later she calls and asks what’s going on and all that and she’s very sober this time after the call she ends with the same “I love you” she used in the other 2 calls and I’m like “hold on you can’t just slide that in there I thought you were only saying those things because you were drunk/high and she says no. I meant everything I said I was high but I wasn’t wasted I knew what I was saying. Things got so bad she started drinking to cope back in Canada we bought a campaign the bottle lasted us more than 1 year only visitors drank the drinks even the smoke we only smoked when someone who smoked came around we borrowed their weed and we didn’t even finish it. I haven’t had any weed at all since she left. I have also never had alcohol, she was also on the same pet to not having any at all even while around smokers and drinkers she had quit drinking entirely and was about to quit smoking but now apparently atleast for thise two days we spoke whenever she missed me she’d cry and drink herself to sleep

So as things are now she’s looking for a job, she’s starting some educational program and she’s trying to get back with me and convince me to come stay with her in India she claims housing and food won’t be as expensive as in Canada but my concern is ‘Money coming in is more important than money going out’ if 100k is coming in and 80k is going out no problem, but if 0k is coming in and 2k is going out Big problem” she claims it’s be easier for me to get a job because I am more learned, more educated than she is, I’ve got more certificates than she does. And Indian employers love certificates. But I know they have 6 day work week instead of 5 and the working conditions I don’t think will be the same as Canada.

She says she’s got a few non-Indian friends from Canada going over to India in December and she’s arranging the entire trip itinerary for them and would like if I could come along. I’m like I would love too but that’s something you plan and save months ahead for. and I have no budget right now also since it’s all girls it may be a little awkward for me. She gets jealous easily and I have no sisters so… I don’t know from the little I know girls think and operate differently from guys. I’m more used to understanding and figuring guys out than girls.

One small example I had a Naija friend who had a white Canadian babe he has/had a situationship with and my Indian girl and this white Canadian girl used to always meet at our place so they also became acquaintances/friends, one day she (the white Canadian) offered me a ride to work, this was when I had no car, and I was running late so this friend told his girl to offer me a ride since we are going the same direction in my “guy with no sisters” brain I said yes thanks thinking that will save me time and money and save me from going late to work only to come back and was told by my girl at the time that the white Canadian girl said I’m the only guy who didn’t hit on her ‘actively’ and I’m like oh good but I didn’t hit on her at all, she starts to not talk to me🤣 I was forking confused till today I don’t know what I did wrong but I apologized.
During the ride not once did we talk anything love related I didn’t even look at this girl once, she told me about how long she’s been in the city all her friends had moved etc. I only said “nice car, oh, I see, ok, ahn-uh” and thank you, when she dropped me off. She was the one doing all the talking. About the outing she went with my girl, her car and the name she calls it, there was some long silence during the ride.
But apparently by her own female perspective this was “inactive flirting”. And by my own girl at the time her girl perspective this was “cheating”.
Well this was what she meant by we were toxic.

When we went to the club we always got compliments and girls usually approached us she used to get jealous When guys approached her I don’t get jealous I saw it as a compliment.

She would get easily jealous and I sometimes out of frustration of having to apologize over nothing would say things or show things that I thought was actual cheating or flirting and she’d be hurt.
There was always drama 🎭 but there was even more good times.

I don’t know maybe I’m wrong but I also saw her jealousy as love, I thought the reason she gets so jealous is because she’s really in love. She also said she wouldn’t be able to do long distance relationship when we first met but now from what she’s been saying and suggesting she wants us to try it.

When we first met I told her you’ve never been in love before, many women never really have and most women will never really be in love.
She said the idea of sex & the act scares her and she hates it, she used to claim she was a Les to not date guys and when we started hanging out I asked her about it she laughed and told me she wouldn’t say she is she she just tells people that to not get approached but she would say she’s bi. But even that was a lie as well. Not that I even mind but I told her you’ll be certain about yourself when you find someone you love you will enjoy the act and you will like the person.

Then she didn’t understand but now I’m sure she does.
exactly what my did to me!
With time will start blaming her families as you narrated!
But one thing I will advise you! Don't be foolish enough to come back to her! When she said that work is much in India over Canada! That's is a bloody bait lie! Even the India themselves are running away from that country because work is hard there.

When I said don't be foolish enough to come back to her or give her chance is because she initiated the breakup and everything!

Now she went back to India and can't compare any man as good and as you! What did you think will happen? She will try all means to come back in Which you will be foolish enough to take her back!

Just move on even if you can stop answering her call or message! Aldo she will do all such of suicide threats and messages with emotional blackmail saying that you didn't stick up with me during her hard times! ( Don't give in to those temptation)

India are very devious and corny people!

Nairaland / General / How To Run A Successful Youtube Channel Without Appearing On Camera by Digitisestudio(m): 5:38pm
"You’ve probably thought about starting a YouTube channel, but the idea of being in front of a camera makes you hesitate. Whether it’s due to camera shyness, privacy concerns, or just the discomfort of being in the spotlight, you’re not alone.

Many Nigerians feel the same way. But what if I told you there’s a way to build a successful YouTube channel without ever showing your face?

You don’t need to be a celebrity, and you certainly don’t need a fancy studio setup. In fact, some of the biggest YouTube channels run completely on YouTube automation, where the creator stays behind the scenes.

Why It’s Okay Not to Show Your Face

Let’s be real, many people in Nigeria would prefer to create content that provides value without exposing themselves to unwanted attention.

The good news? There are plenty of ways to thrive on YouTube without ever appearing on camera.

In this guide, I’m going to show you how to run a successful YouTube channel using faceless content. You’ll learn which niches work best, the tools you need, and how to make money without showing your face. Let’s dive in!

Why You Don’t Need to Appear on Camera to Succeed on YouTube

The idea that you must show your face to succeed on YouTube is outdated. Some of the most profitable channels today don’t show the creator at all. So, why does this work?

Anonymity: Staying faceless protects your privacy, something many Nigerians value.

Focus on Content: Instead of worrying about appearance or performance, you can focus on delivering high-quality content.

Lower Barrier to Entry: No need for expensive cameras, lights, or makeup. You can start with just your voice and some simple editing tools.

Example: Think of animation channels, AI tutorials, tech review channels, or even music playlists. These creators are building massive audiences without ever stepping in front of a camera.

Top Niches for Faceless YouTube Channels

Choosing the right niche is crucial for success. Luckily, there are several niches where appearing on camera isn’t necessary.
Here are some popular and profitable options for faceless channels:

1. Animation Channels

Create fun or educational animated videos. You don’t need to be an artist; tools like Doodly or Toonly can help you produce professional-looking animation videos that will engage and educate your audience and you earn from it.

2. How-To and Tutorial Channels

Many people including me and you are always looking for solutions online. I couldn't remember how many videos I have watched on YouTube while I still have a channel on this niche doing extremely well. Whether it’s how to fix a broken phone, any knowledge you have or tutorials on graphic design, you can create simple screen recordings and voiceovers.

3. Product Review Channels

You don’t need to appear in front of the camera to review products. Just show the product, talk about its features, and share your thoughts, you will be surprised how people will be using your referring link and subscribing to your channel.

4. Meditation/Music Playlists


Create calming meditation or music playlists and let them run in the background. Channels like these are easy to manage and can attract lots of listeners.

5. AI Tools Or Tech Explainers

Channels that explain how tech gadgets or software work are growing. All you need is a clear voice and many AI voice generators like Elevenlab, Fliki, and Lovo give you realistic voices for your video and some basic editing skills using capcut.


Bonus Tip: There are many great niches you can start but I listed these above as they are still beginner-friendly and easy to create. You can also use keyword research tools like Google Keyword Planner to find high-demand but low-competition niches.


Step-by-Step Guide to Starting a Faceless YouTube Channel

You’re probably thinking, “How do I start a faceless YouTube channel that actually makes money?” Let’s break it down step by step, so you know exactly what to do.

Step 1: Niche Selection and Research

The first step is choosing the right niche, one that doesn’t require you to show your face. To make the most of YouTube automation, it’s important to find a niche that not only interests you but also has an audience.

How to Pick the Right Niche:

Look for Demand: Use tools like Google Trends, Vidiq and Keyword Planner to find topics people are searching for.

Check the Competition: Choose a niche with lower competition but high search volume. Niches like top 10 lists, tutorials, or tech explainer videos are good options.

Stay Consistent: Once you pick a niche, stick to it. Jumping between topics can confuse your audience and hurt your growth.
