Yep that's it... A woman's role in life is to be a mother and wife. Rubbish post! This thread is for lazy people without ambition.

So are you in any way trying to say that the bolded is wrong?

Now calm down down, take a deep breath and understand this properly. Two things are involved, a mother and a wife.

A mother is not just supposed to give birth to kids, but be a 'real' mother her kids in the real sense of it (motherhood)

A wife isnt jsut supposed to be a life-long partner to a man she is married to, but a 'real' wife in the true sense of it. (emphasis on real with intent) i mean a woman who is to be the neck/pillar/supporter to the husband.

And if a woman as 1) a mother and 2) a wife performs these two roles perfunctorily as is expected, i dont see how her surgeon on earth becomes a failure or how she becomes synonymous to 'lazy people without ambition'. In other words, theres absolutely nothing 'rubbish' about this post, your opinion rather will be more suitable to be refered as such

Ngenge:
Have you seen or heard of any of these abnormalities?
1. A guy that wants to marry but does not have at least a rented apartment?
2. A lady that wants to marry but she is not a graduate,skilled or having a little means of survival?
3. People getting married without going for medical tests?
4. A jobless man?
5. A lady that is not home made(dont know how to cook,cant even distinguish among soup ingredients, cant wash or clean etc)?
6. Trying to marry through the advise of a pastor,mum, dad, godfather,relatives or siblings? Example: A lady was persuading her fiance to marry her after they had gone for three medical test in three different laboratories and all the results proved that both has their genotype as 'AS'. According to her: ''my pastor said my genotype will change to 'AA' very soon'' . Agwa ojoo

With the way some fools worship their pastorpreneurs i will no be surprised if the bolded happens in real life

^ thanks naffysa, she is truly beutiful. Got this pics of her too

thewarrior72:
Sorry, don't be offended, I was simply irked by that guy offensive words against the southeast. Once again, pardon my generalization

We are cool bruv. Truth is people like him have natural phoebia for the SE, dont let his offensive comment get to you to an extent that you make uncontrolled emotional outburts, else you will help him achieve his aim. From the tone of his voice you can sence his attacks stems from his frustration and pain against the Igbos and does not represent the opinion of the Ukwuani people.

Donmarrius:
My brother,your words sent strong sensation of reality,into my very nerves.
I cant but agree with you,but you know,the likes of these idiots here,are the ones give others bad name.
Once again,thanks for your wisdom.

Thank you bruv. Its only wise to be careful with people like that dolt who have sinister motives of creating divisions among Igbos in the south East and Igbos outside the SE. Such is their grand plot for making such divisive utterances. Wisdom demands that we should be mindful of how we interprete and react to their comments so as not to fall for their bait, bearing in mind that his myopic and warped opinion is just a personal one cos he is speaking only for himself. Also not forgeting that the real enemies of Ndigbo (yo....) are listening, lurking by the corner waiting to taunt us and make jest of us with their usual gabbage like 'your brothers are denying you bla...bla...'thereby encouraging people like him.

I am not disputing that the fool is an Ndokwa/ukwuani person cos the truth is that there are a few sell outs like him who will always exhibit their iddioccy and stewpidity which is in their nature. Good enough thou, his ilks represent only a minute population and at the end of the day their opinion will not count when it matters.

@Emmysoftyou, you have spoken well. Those who truly know where they belong will not deny their allegience, not minding the senselessness and inane utterances of an irritating few. Those people you mentioned truly know who they are and where they belong unlike for some confused fool who decided he prefers to be suffering from identity crises.

Don't forget GEJ also came in with the intention of staying as life President. Remember his very first bill to the National Assembly just 3 weeks as President (after returning from State visits to Paul Biya and Musevini--- two of the most brutal dictators Africa has ever witnessed)?

7 YR SINGLE TERM AGENDA!!!

Same exact tactic all the African dictators used to sit tight in power. If you think GEJ will leave in 2019 you're all dreaming. Mark my words. GEJ has no plans to leave Aso Rock except in a body bag or casket; it shows in all his actions. He'd rather Nigeria breaks out in a war in hopes that he'd have a Niger Delta Republic to preside over.

You're all in deep sh^it if you don't figure out a way to kick this man out in 2015 because Nigeria is on its way to a one-party state if PDP "wins" next year. There will be no more opposition and PDP will change the constitution to allow him rule for as long as possible...

Well, till war inevitably breaks out eventually.

[/s]You are just an IDDIOTT.

hmmmmmmm

Why is her picture not here?i heard she is a beautiful woman

thewarrior72:
Your tribe is neither here nor there

Please desist from making comments like this, this is how the beef and enemity starts. Allow her to say where she stands. Saying 'your tribe' is utter rubbish, how did you come about that? again why generalize by bringing in the whole tribe? did she tell you she doesnt know where she stands. Sometimes it is better we think through before making our comments

christopher123:
Why are we making this an issue ..I personally married and ukwuani lovely babe and during the track we never had issues with language just us ndi onu nuo that's the term for whole igboid group are the same

When their traditional rulers or Eze comes and tell us that they are not igbos then I can take them serious but none has come out

So who am I to believe these urchins and never do wells here

Now go and weed your marijuana farm

Ndi ogo m

Exactly! one senseless tout decides to make a fool of himself and some people are taking him serious with hasty generalisations, its very annoying

thewarrior72:
[s]No reasonable igbo needs you guys. Your ethnicity is too insignificant & inconsequential to be noticed by almighty igbos, infact, try to govern ur little delta state before aiming for the presidency....identity crisis clowns[/s]

Dont say that please. That one iddiott who calls himself victor is making a fool of himself does not mean the rest of ukwuani/ndokwa think like him. As you can see from his senseless rantings that he is a frustrated bar.stard, and a senseless dingbat. Can you even imagine thesame fool saying that igbos can go to hell but in another breath says he wants to join the igbos in Delta to form Anioma state, in other words thesame igbos you hate and despise so much are thesame people you want to have a new state with. What an irony.

My point is, dont conclude that Ndokwa/Ukwuani people have thesame senseless opinion as that fool victor, i hate generalizations and its only fair that you dont generalize based on the myopic opinion of one person. There are many reasonable Ndokwa people unlike that fool. Every Ndokwa person i have come accross sees him/herself as igbo and proud of it. Please do not talk down on Ndokwa people, we dont have have any beef with them and will not, and we have no good reason to alienate them. Do not take the word of one fool serious because he is only speaking for his miserable self

Apeesh1t seeking political relevance and public approval through propaganda since 1940

Well done Peter Obi, Okwute Ndigbo

Like seriously why are some fools comparing Obi to Rochas? Obi is no longer a serving governor when he decamped unlike Rochas who decamped while still in office. Rochas is a politically hungry chamelion and desperado who has been in not less than 5 different political parties in just 10 years. Only a fool will compare these two.

Secondly, why are some fools saying Obi betrayed Ojukwu? He did not. Obi served for two terms under APGA for 8 years. Not only that, he handed over to an APGA candidate before he left office, he has done his bit. He held Ojukwus legacy for 8years and transfered it to obiano. Were you expecting him to remain in APGA forever? Even if APGA dies today, it didnt die under Peter Obi. The only thing is permanent is change, and in politics, changes occur even faster, so?

Thirdly, this is politics and its dynamic. Politicians cross-carpet frequently in their political lifetime, so whats the crime in Obi joining PDP? Thesame fools shouting now are thesame people accussing Obi of hobnobbing with the PDP in the center, same for Mimiko (the Iroko), so now that they have finally joined the PDP why the complain? since the APGA and LP under Obi and Mimiko share same political ideology, isnt it only logical they come together and join forces under one platform (umbrella) PDP.?

Obi is a man of ideas, a clever politician and loved by a lot people both within and outside Anambra state. i know his joining PDP portends even more danger to the oppositin Apeesh1t. His joining PDP is welcome development. Even if Governor Obiano decamps to PDP today, it will equally be a welcome development. Having a very strong two-party system (just like the American model of democracy) isnt a bad idea. The one-party states like APGA and LP should merge with the PDP to make it even stronger. Afterall in politics, nothing is permanent.

BRAVO Okwute.

i congratulate the next governor of Ebonyi state, (prof)Onyebuchi Chukwu

chymystique:
Well said!!

He is 27 for God's sake.. Pls kingchi32 just give him time to be comfortable financially. In as much that you both want to take things to the next level, with his attitude now I dnt think he is ready to settle down. From your post it seems like you are the one asking him to marry you and not the other way round.

Dont mind the op and some silly people trying to mislead her, this is how desperate girls will force guys who are not financially buoyant to marry them, and when he is not able to provide adequately for the family, thesame women will open their wide mouth to shout that he is an 'irresponsible man' and ask the girl to quit.

At 27, the young man still has enough time to 'fix' himself financially and does not need to rush into marriage, and i applaud him for his decision to reject their trap of trying to 'rope' him.

Like seriously that word 'threaten' annoys the hell outta me...nonsense

theLORDreigns:
@embolden, You did the right thing by telling him this.

I can't imagine any man with sincere marriage intentions accepting to quit because he was 'threatened'.

He was never really interested in getting married (to you) in the first place. He got to seeing the reality of marriage/commitment after he spoke with your mother.

How can an advice on cost savings be taken the wrong way? (which was what Mama said)



His coming up with lies & trying to sell them to you, shows a lack of respect/regard for your parents.



You've taken very bold steps that only few women are willing to take in pursuit of their own happiness.

Give it time...soon enough, you'll get over the hurt of a broken relationship & meet the right one for you.



Tell your parents exactly how it happened. They should be proud of your decision.

You see how are quick to judge the guy, and how in the world are you able to tell he didn't have genuine intention??. and who threatens a man when discussing marriage? i mean which girl in her right senses would do such? ok since she threatened and the guy said he cant do it her way, why don't she carry out her threat and leave the guy alone to find his way in pursuit of happiness rather than opening a thread on nairaland to whine about it?

Did i hear you say disrespect for her parents? and you chose to have a one-sided view about that too?, what about the girl who chose to lie that she is impatient rather than tell her parents the truth? Is she any less guilty of disrespect? Mind you her mothers suggestion to him is not binding on him, he may chose to take or ignore it.

You completely lack objectivity with no iota of rationality or logic, you will make a very terrible judge.

coogar:
i am covered.



my favourite hunting ground.

lol...niqqas been aiming 'holes' since 1906

alutacontinua:
I have a link with both!
Ijebu people are very nice people, spent a chunk of my childhood there and I must say they are really cool.


but then again, there are good and bad people everywhere.

@op, if you know your partner well enough and she'a good enough for you, then by all means go ahead!

Interesting! which of your parents is from ijebu?

coogar:
i have been ostracised already - marrying an osu chic will not put me further backwards
than where i am at presently.

Really? funny you, i hope so ...lol

enugu south!

yeah, looked it up already. Where we have the UNTH

UjSizzle:
Not shabby at all

glad to hear that

UjSizzle:
Tell that to the homosexuals

lwkmd...ok.

How has been your day?

coogar:
if i come across any osu chic, i would loan her a protruding belle. the umunna & umuada can't do nada. i will first do a change of name for her - give her an itshekiri or an ijaw name. they won't be able to trace jack. transport fare is expensive these days, no one would risk their lives to go to asari dokubo's domain & catch the stray bullets of ijaw terrorists

. LWKMD you risk being ostracised by your people if you tried that, unless only you pretend you never knew she was an osu from the onset, so i heard

ituku ozalla till the second coming.....

Pls where is that?

moca:
[s]This is d most childish thing i hv ever seen online.[/s]
Posting somebody's picture without her consent online?

[s]Requesting strangers call ur baby mama?
Dont u know her house or people?

I tell u, unless she decides otherwise, that lady has gone for good.

Eww, see show of lv.
I call this immaturity and stupidity at d highest level.
Better remove that picture if u value ur baby gal not to talk of ur woman.

O buro ogologo bu na nwa m etoka.

U hv no reason being in a relationship if ur thought process is this way.[/s]

oh please cut the crap

That you don't fancy what he did doesn't mean its immature or stewpid, and whats with all the unnecessary ranting and insults? I'll rather consider your comment as immature and stewpid and you have a very flawed and warped thought process to boot. How different is this from people prophesying love for their partners on radio and TV programs, or seeking reconciliation for their strained relationships via same process.

FYI, this concept by the Op is very creative and thoughtful of him, and will be appreciated by any romantic individual, same cannot be said of you thou, cos people like you find being romantic weird and uncanny.

Save for the bolded, every other thing you said is utter balderdash

MarvellousGod:
Sis, you could be right about posting her pictures without her consent but about people calling and wishing her a happy birthday, I see absolutely nothing wrong with it, infact it's sweet. .. imagine people you don't know calling/texting on your birthday, wishing you good, telling you how much your husband loves you.... mehn, I will feel so special and loved .. except maybe you're having a bad day or you have so much hatred for the person who made the arrangement....
Again, the calls/texts will last just for a day, so why the fuss??

Ease off sis, try not taking things too seriously..you could have passed your msg without insulting the op.. People do what he's doing now everyday, some even announce over the radio...Even if people don't, it's his relationship and it's his business how he decides to run it.....

Exactly most people myself inclusive find it lovely and romantic, and it takes a lot of guts to do things like this. If the op isnt deeply in love with her, he wouldnt be doing this

BananaBender:
Why is that more acceptable to the society?

A man cheating than a woman cheating

MzMariah:
When they say a man cheats it even sounds OK to the ears compared to when you hear that a woman is cheating on her husband. Even if he forgives her touching her will be a very big problem.

You nailed it, no need for long story. If only women would learn from this simple, precise and sincere comment.

coogar:
they still have the osu thingy in the east. i cannot imagine taking a sweet babe to ituku ozalla only for my family to say she's an osu....i would start a riot. osu-gini? do osus have 3 brëasts or what is forbidden about them? me thinks we should get rid of all the folks older than 70 in our midst in nigeria, they are the ones holding the progress of that country & it's unity.

my thoughts too.

Funny thing is the so called osu's are always very beautiful, even many of their men are said to be very rich and succesful, so i heard.

I was discussing with a friend days ago, and told him him that if i find a girl to marry and she happens to be osu, ill go ahead even if my parents objected for instance. He then reminded me that the ummunna will disassociate themselves from anything concerning the marriage, of course this got me thinking...... I have the feeling that 'some' of the pretty girls who are of marriageble age who you see in marriage seminars may be the osu thingy denying them marriage, cos sometimes you begin to wonder why such a beautiful girl isnt married

In 's voice, May God help us all

My in-law had a friend (an ex-class mate) in the university who got married to an ijebu guy immediately after graduation. Need i say she didnt make it alive from the marriage, with less than a year into the marriage, she caught a strange illness and never recovered. Up till this moment, what killed that lady remains a mystery. The only daughter to her parents, no child...nothing

That was the first time ever i heard the scary story about ijebu people, i even argued with my inlaw then on the stereotype about ijebu people cos i've had plenty of yoruba friends but never heard about it, and she laughed at my naivity. Down the years i have heard such sentiments resonate over and over again and even expressed by yorubas themselves.

Times have changed and still changing, we really need to get rid of these cultural stereotypes still in practicse in some places

bukatyne:
And what is the lies you smell?

You said yourself that guys must check out sex.y ladies

A lady has said she does not mind because she sees it as a normal stuff and yet you smell lies?

the lies i smell is that its easier for her to have said it

When a man checks out sexy ladies its appreciation of the attractivenes/sex appeal she exudes, when a woman stares at a fellow woman, most times its out of jealousy/envy

Normal stuff indeed..... Aunty please tell me a story

UjSizzle:
Lol the fear of lesbianism For all it's worth though, I was kidding.

Its not worth it trust me. Safe to say that any such pre-conceived idea have evaporated from your mind, nothing like the heavenly feeling you get from an opposite sex

Dunno about lies and pretense, and not even about to go into everything that is wrong with some men, but it's a lot easier to see the fault in the deviation than the norm.
We all frustrate each other, trust me. It doesn't matter the degree of occurrence.

Now you are so on point @bolded. Remember i said earlier, having the right partner will be like a rship made in heaven. We have frustrating, irritating and iddioticc men and women who will make you hate going into rships. Nothwithstanding, one should not give up on rship. A mean is meant to enjoy se.x with a woman and vice versa. Both men and women were created for specific purposes and its only right that such purposes are not upturned by humans, what do you think?
