Dis Guy:

Most if not all MBA required people with good working experience as you will be doing a lot of case studies; ordinarily you should be able to just read and make suggestions but yours will be weak

In my final year in uni, for some modules we had to mix with students from other course and most of them were mature part time student working in industry, trust me we just felt like fish out of water when some discusssion came up basically went to sleep and some lecturers were really caught up with the mature students forgetting some of us were still collecting pocket money cheesy

Another why I think it's almost a waste of time is that you are meant to come out looking for middle management or atleast supervisory positions, I wouldnt employ someone with all the papers qualifications in the world over someone with experience





Ok thanks for the info. I guess I don't have to prepare for the GMAT any time soon and I am in the US. Just wondering what one could do after graduation and no job immediately.

Fhemmmy pls answer my question



Spanishfly:



I'm sure you r talking like this 'cos u r a man. Let me put it the other way round, we have been dating for so long, years, I've never remembered your birthday but you always remembered mine. I promise to see you today, I never show up, call or even text I can't make it again a couple of times, what would you do in that case or how would u feel?

Dis Guy:

Why will you wanna do a Masters or even an MBA without work experience?
I'm always amused by people rushing for more paper qualifications without experience
only to come out and fight for entry level roles, in some career it is required but in many you will be
playing catch up with the guys already in the system (those already working)

moved to career


What is wrong with doing a Masters or an MBA without work experience? Is it a bad thing and if so why? That's why I'm asking. What if one does not get a job immediately graduating what next?

No one says, the day is not very important, but what is the big deal who remind the other . . . .He is your man, you love him, and accepts his faults, remind him like 2 days before, okay, lemme teach you how to do it.

Let us assume your bday is February 1st. . . .Today is January 29th
So tonite: Darling, u always forget my B'day oh, and it hurts oh, so remember the next one is Feb 1st oh
Next day . . . . I will be another year older tomorrow hon
I am sure that man will not forget on that day.

Well, if you remind him and never show up on that day, then, that one get as he be, are you sure, he is not a Jehovah Witness man?

oyinda.:

that's not what i mean. i'm not asking if they hit on u. i'm asking if you are close with these friends. just because you have many guy friends doesn't mean they are your true friends or close friends.
ie. are your best friends male? how would you describe your friendships with them compared to your friendship with girls? would u be able to sleep over? hang out very frequently (especially if they have significant others and/or if u have a boyfriend), talk about girl stuff (because i'm sure he probably doesn't go shopping for makeup and clothes with u undecided), etc.
i think it's hard to have a guy as a best friend unless your gay or tomboy.

that's what i mean by quantity vs quality.
i have a friend who also has more guy friends in terms of number. but the majority of the guys are just ppl she flirt with or have superficial convos with. her best friends (that she does most stuff with) are girls.



OK understand u better, yeah u right in the quantity vs quality. There is quantity with the males and quality with the females.

oyinda.:

from what i notice, the biggest drama queens themselves are usually the ones who complain most about "girl drama" tongue

also, there is quantity vs quality. maybe u have more guy friends in terms of number but the friends you are closer to are girls in terms of quality of friendship? undecided i think it's hard to be best friends (no intitmacy) with a guy unless your gay, tomboy or a loner.



u right, saying I have more male friends does not mean they haven't tried hitting on me, yes they have but still the number outweighs that of my female friends.

TOPE2000!:

Its because most girls back-stab each other, dnt knw why tho
Not talkin to one of my good gfriend at the moment angry

u right but I actually have good female friends but realised that the males are much much more than my female friends.

Sisi_Kill:

@ Topic
Don't we all?

It's funny, every girl says they have more male friends. . .yet you never see a girl without a bunch of other girls with her.

I think saying "oh i don't have a lot of female friends" is the latest step in the mating dance. Hehehe!

Girls and the length they'll go to get attention from guys. I tell ya, there's nothing more entertaining than girl drama cheesy


I don't get you here

Family / Re: Will You Cry If Your Dad Of 92 Dies? by Spanishfly(f): 2:27am On Jan 29, 2010
N101:

@ poster

Do you think that your mother is supposed to have no feelings for her father because he's 92?? If you think your mother is pathetic now, wait until she hits her late 60s and starts looking and acting like an old woman, you'll be the one freaking out!

People who have their parents fear losing them, no matter how old they are. As we watch them age, we become more aware of their mortality. Was talking to someone a couple of weeks ago whose mother is 83 and growing more frail. He worries about her - and he's 60!

So long as parents are alive and their children are around, so will these concerns be. The reality is that when they are gone you feel a void, you also feel the responsibility that comes from being the next generation. The loss of a parent isn't something reserved only for the young.


That's true, thank God I'm not alone. I do worry everyday too and my dad isn't up to 60, soon though.

It is very easy, remind the man, say a week or some days to the date and he will do what you expected of him.
I have a policy: NEVER EXPECT, SO YOU DONT GET DISAPPOINTED

Easy really? What if dating for over 3years and has never called to say happy birthday because he can't remember plus the date, you also call him that same day to remind him, at the end, he doesn't show up plus no call/text, what is one to do in this case?

HeroKing:

There is no angel under the sun as far as relationships are concerned. For you to get the "Mt. Perfect", I guess those type are only available in the cementaries! Long lasting relationship are built from the scratch and are not just plucked from the shelve but it seems what you want is the ready made stuff.

With your above post, it is obvious you are wasting your time without knowing. For your information, those folks too would have seen the greed in you and must have decided to treat you like tissue paper to be used and dumped. If you want to learn from your own experience, you will know that the guy you dumped 30 months ago is no longer the same guy today. He probably has grown, he has improved and most likely arrived. Meanwhile you must have sacked him when he looked unsutable to your warped standard at that time. The earlier you sit up and pray to God for contentment the better.

So long, no harm is meant, just being thruithful.






Wow!!!! How do u know she was the one that dumped him?

I think women attach too much big deal to that day and their Anniversary
Personally, everyday is my woman's birthday, cos i do appreciate her daily and dont have to wait for some special day.
i think ladies needs to cut men some slack when it comes to dates

We have too much in our head to worry about

I'm getting confused with these men issues. Ok Fhemmy if the guy keeps missing dates and does not inform the woman, he cannot make it and has never remembered her birthday, what is she to do in this case? What can be said about the man?

Family / Re: Submission In A Marriage, What Does It Mean Nowadays? by Spanishfly(f): 9:58pm On Jan 25, 2010
Fhemmmy:

You think a man should submit to the wife?
I think submission from the man to the wife is respect . . . a man has to protect and respect his wife more than even himself.

How does a man respect his wife/woman?

I used to have this ex, reason why he's even an ex now. He was always saying I'm disrespecting him just because I say I want to talk to him when he's doing something wrong to me. Isn't that meant to be what communication is all about?
Romance / Re: Bored, Lonely, Starting To Hate Nigerian Men: by Spanishfly(f): 12:25am On Jan 24, 2010
MRbrownJAY:

@poster

here is my advise to you:
- close your legs for the first 6 months of meeting a guy. men usually dont cherish/respect something hat they got easily so stay away from any sexual relationship before you are sure he is the right guy. any sex before 6 months is a FAIL! if he cant wait then he is not right for you.

- get to know him.
you give yourself to "strangers" and then complain later that they are the way they are.? get to know the guys you date. dont be emotionally cheap! discover them, talk, ask questions etc let them focus on YOU not the booty.

- go to his house. thats where it all starts. if you havent been to your mans house then he is hiding something from you there.

- invite yourself in his house at 3am in the morning. only a man who has something to hide or who has lady friends over sometimes will be mad at you for coming to his house uninvited.

- check his phone. a person who has nothing to hide will gladly hand over his phone to you.

- know his friends and family. if you never met his parents, real friends then you are not his woman. yes people will tell you that it will take time to meet them and thats when you tell him that he will take an equal amount of time for him to "get down" with you.

men would tell you that you have to trust them but trust has to be earned so therefore dont trust any man until you are 150% that he is THE ONE. raise your standards!

but remember that even with all this things checked, it doesnt mean that a man will stay faithful all his life so you have to remember that relationships are a constant struggle to be on top of your game, the day you slip, someone will be there to take your place in his eyes, mind and bed!

ps: some would say that these are drastic measures but in the posters shoes, drastic measures have to be taken before she "join the other side" LOL. ******become a lesbian******





Good points but what if you've been to his house but he does not like you showing up uninvited and does not let you check his phone. You've spoken to his mum, sisters, family too and seen some of his friends, could he still be the right one or shows that he's not playing with you?

Abekeade08:

Onyema,

Naija guys like you are rare. From the story you have posted, I will say your friend does not feel the same way you do for her. That you have known her for 7 years tells me and she is taking this long to respond, tells me that she does not know how to turn you down. The only advice I can render to you is that, you should cut off all communication with her. Let her miss you and your presence in her life, maybe this will help her reconcile her feelings for you. If it doesn't then, you have to move on and find someone else who will appreciate your strength, dedication and loyalty. Good luck.

True talk!

Ujujoan:


I always believe that when meeting the 'right person' comes with a certainty that only the PERFECT guy for you can bring. Do not force yourself to like anybody. If it's not working, don't regeret it. When the right man comes along, trust me, you'll be ready to ANYTHING to keep him!


Thanks hun, agree with u.

whitelexi:

I've already chased too many potentially "right ones" away cos of the sins of the few potentially "wrong ones", or so i think. . .  but now i wonder if i'm the "wrong one" or whether they just came along at the "wrong times", only time will tell if i'm right or if i'm wrong but i dont make excuses for my actions and i know there's nothing i would do differently if given another chance, fate works in ways too complicated for us to understand all of the time, but fate can be manipulated with faith and thats the key!

I very much agree with the statement in bold. Some people misunderstand that statement, because someone is right does not necessarily mean at that time it is compulsory or a must or force yourself to be with that person. Yes time waits for no man, but rush in, rush out.



GL:

you're not alone, many girls find themselves truly uninterested when good guys come around. i guess that's just how life works. sometimes you just know that you're not ready or interested in something that looks good and everyone around thinks you're being silly. don't worry if God sent one he can send more, or better still make you feel interested in the guy. besides there's no one Mr. Right.


i agree!


i also wonder about the potentially right guys i've chased away. while there's a possibility that i was the wrong one, i'd rather think that they came along at the wrong time. sometimes one just isn't ready for a relationship and i can't help it if a good guy comes along at that time.


That's right. I feel that way at times too.

if ure still young, then dont get urself bothered about the commitment for now
