Blame your brain for not being creative LOL

Not enough time to read the novels I got from the library, who do I blame?

Tricky. I'd say there usually is a reason why you fell in love with this person, maybe you love their personality. But this shouldn't be the only reason why you love them. People's personality changes and if this happens, you still need to stick by this person because although their personality changed, you should love ALL OF THEIR BEING and not just an ASPECT OF THEIR BEING. . . if that makes any sense.

Deep Soul:
So tell us naw, are you :

a) Lying

b) The Holy Ghost

c) A Bus Driver

d) A police man/ Soldier

e) An Armed robber

lmao! Abi?! I want to know too.

@post: Bauchi (place of birth). Beautiful city, when I lived there at least. So sad about what it's turning into.

This is hilarious. I believe in juju, but in this case I recommend getting a physical exam and not blaming juju.

Blame yourself if you can't cook

Still awake at 5.31AM, and I work at 2PM. Who do I blame? (I know the answer to that one lol)

@Topic

My kids are not going to work their behinds off to support themselves whilst in school.

I can understand that, and find it ridiculous to think a parent would expect a child to pay for college. Tuition alone is thousands of dollars. On the other hand, kids don't have to depend on their parents for everything. First year of college at 17, lived with my parents and got pocket money. After moving into the dorms at 18, I've been partially independent ever since. I support my fast food and shopping habit by working part-time while in school and full-time (2-3 jobs) over the summer so I have enough change to support my "habit" and have a savings while I'm in school. Works out nicely . . .

Fact#   He who cares less about a relationship dominates a relationship.

He knows you'd go  great lengths to have him back, so he's just enjoying the feeling that comes with it!. . .

Stop chasing!!!. . .no one enjoys being ignored, especially by the people who they think couldn't live without them!

WORD!!


[quote author=Shy-One link=topic=695012.msg8603951#msg8603951 date=1309219185]NO - DON'T CALL.  "After all I did for him" - you did alot already - he knows it and you know it.  But let me clue you baby girl.  You DID NOTHING.  As everything on the planet belongs to God and all God does is shift and move it around placing it in the laps of those who have shown themselves approved unto God.

So let go of "What you did for him and how good of a girlfriend you are" - kill that angle.  Because it will bury you if you don't.

Call him?  HELLLLLL TO THE NOOOOOO.  Why?

Go out and party. Go to the gym.  Bury yourself in work.  Your efforts have been massive on his part - he knows it.  IT'S HIS TURN NOW.  If he wants you, let him be the MAN and step to you.  Get your mind off of him and what is, was, wasn't between the two of you.

If you were that good of a girlfriend, trust me he won't want you to get away and/or been seen in the arms of another.

Get busy.  Don't play games with him and don't allow him to play games with you.  He better man up if he wants you.  Games are for kids.  To get your man, You need to be a woman, not a girl.  Stay quiet, say nothing to him.  Everything has already been said that is to be said.  Action is needed at this point.

Let him be the man.  If he wants you, let him tell you and you be the woman and tell him the same.  Any hint of game playing from here forward.  Dump his backside and don't look back.  This is your life.[/quote]SPOT ON!!

Gurl, the ball is in your court! You've done enough begging already, dude should not get used to this. Good luck with everything.

That's cute

Interesting topic, don't have anything to contribute though.

@Hedgefund: Spot on!

chocobunny:
Lots of beautiful opinions here. First let me say, some of these posters are ill informed. The likes of[b] Paris Hilton and Kate Middleton [/b]are the super mega filthy rich, and they should not be compared to anyone while constructing an argument. But, if you must compare, Even with the amount of wealth these people have, when their children are untrained idiots, the world knows it and these children will not be respected or hired into serious positions, such as the senate, congress, or a presidency. They will not be allowed to run companies into the ground. They GO TO JAIL for their wrongdoings. It is not so with Nigeria.

That being said, there are two common practices in the u.s. when it comes to university. Either you take out the loans to pay for your childs education or use your own money OR the child pays their own way by getting scholarships or taking out their own loans. While receiving scholarships are an honor in the u.s., i have found that my overly wealthy naija born and raised counterparts look down on this. It would appear that nigerians just like to flaunt wealth, and therefore do things solely to make a statement (such as sending their children to FREE PUBLIC school with hummers and drivers). This is not a practice common in the u.s, quite frankly, i think nigerians in the u.s. makes specticles of themselves engaging in such absurd extravagances. Until the common nigerian starts LOOKING DOWN on these practices instead of hoping they can one day do the same, rich nigerians will continue to engage in this wasteful behavior.

I do not think the posters point was that our children should suffer, the point is that wealthy nigerians are hurting their children by not allowing them to achieve their own success through hard work. Flying on economy IS NOT suffering. There are people in the u.s. that have never even been on a plane! Spending an addition 1000 u.s. so your child can eat a lobster dinner on a flight is ridiculous. Once youve bought them a plane ticket, they should be grateful! While not all rich nigerian parents are guilty of letting their children have overly lavish lifestyles, quite a number of them are. im going to take a wild guess and say that the parents who allow their children to be spendthrifts are the ones who stole their wealth from nigeria. It is only when you have worked hard for your money and understand the value of a dollar that you will not allow anyone, even your children, to waste the fruits of your labor.

As for the difficulties of living in nigeria, i understand that well. Yes, i understand why you would want to find your child a job or why you would want to send them abroad for schooling. The issue is not that you are giving your child the basics that at times it is difficult to obtain in nigeria, the issue is when it turns to excess!

I find it ridiculous that you would compare the likes of Kate Middleton and Paris Hilton. Paris Hilton is an heiress (dad inherited the Hilton fortune), quite different from Kate who's parents are wealthy, not as rich as the Hilton's but made their money over the years through hard work. Kate obviously wasn't as hard working, but did have some jobs over the years.

In reference to free public education, just to clarify - do you mean high school in the States or Nigeria? Cos there certainly isn't free public college education anywhere else.

@OP:
Your post was spot on! The whole entitlement thing is a bore, and it's not just in Nigeria, this is also seen all over the world.  

About Kate's car, last I checked her Audi car is courtesy the Royal family.

Wow Nigeria . . . smh. #egobetter

At least she told you. The best you can do is go to a gynecologist and confirm that her womb is indeed fine.

Seriously, is that a question?

How do you fix bangles? I'm a girl and never heard of that.

Wow, so much 'hate' on this thread lol. Anyways, I love TuFace and to each his own.

Slyr0x:

Echoed my thoughts. Maybe it's some kinda partnership agreement.

[quote author=mama-gee link=topic=675224.msg8411931#msg8411931 date=1306618180][color=deeppink] Ronaldo is well-known for carrying a team all on his own something even his own critics and enemies can attest to. . .

Did ronaldo also depend on rooney and other great players to score 42 goals 3 years ago in Manchester United?

This argument is quite lame since it's been well known that ronaldo is a goal-scoring machine in every club he sets his talentful and legendary foot on. . .something that everyone is still waiting to see from Lionel messi.[/color][/quote]I have to agree with that!

9ja4eva:
We were totally outclassed. Our defense was a complete mess. Midfield, did we even had a midfield? The game was almost completely on our side of the field, so our forwards never really stood a chance. This only enforces my opinion that we need a man on midfield who is not only able to hold the ball, but also go on the offensive and have quality passing (Sneijder).

Definitely true! This was a mess!

Fergie is a mess, dang!!

Ok, we aren't still ready to take on these dudes 2 yrs later, I can accept that. We got owned tonight.

Very nice!!
