No matter where I go or who I date I can't forget my first love. We dated and broke up and came back after leaving our respective relationship. It's like jazz, we dont even know what to do again. We stated dating young, we wrote waec and enter the University together, graduated and currently working and we're still together. It's hard to just let him go. No jazz abi? I still love him very much too. O.p it's gonna be hard.

Thought, you'd say that you conquered it. I may not understand you completely, but imagine this your guy is not someone you end up marrying, how would you overcome the urge of seeing or being romantic with him?

Probably, I wouldn't have known the guy's heart, with regards his love for his wife. However, I know that he married his wife because he saw good qualities in her and we all know sometimes people dont only marry for love, but can grow to love each other...however, remember, he and his ex were really in love for years before they separated...

Pls, advice if you can. Thanks

Bluette:
Ur frnd shld define his boundary wt her. D lady knows d guy Is married and she cudnt stop him wen dey started cuddling and kissing and also d guy does not know what he wants *a newly married man* most newly wedded couples i av seen r crazily madly in love wt each oda, d spark and glow is alws ther. I doubt if d guy loves his wife.

I believe I was clear enough naa. I personally don't have any of my exes in my state, so it can't be me. Thanks

Your friend or you?

This is a little but serious dilemma, a friend is currently facing. He requested for my advice and I felt I could come here to get tips before I meet him on Sunday when we are chanced to hangout.

It goes thus...

He had this presumed soulmate back then in school and they dated for 3years. They both studied computer engineering, graduated together and went to MIIT, (whatever that means). When they finished the program, the guy got job first with this IT firm in PH and they were forced to separate due to distance...the lady in question had to get married with the guy's consent and later divorced in October 2015. My formed got married December 2015, but did told me that he still crush on his ex.

Things got a bit complicated when he bumped on his ex at his office, where she came for an interview on March this year and the fire seems to have been kindled. She got the job 3 weeks later. The thing is, he's been trying to avoid her but this week Monday, she was to be reporting to my friend's immediate boss. My guy closes late, about 7pm daily, so as to prepare for the next day's job and it means, his ex must report to his boss through him and sometimes, only very few people are left in the building when she's to submit her report.

It got serious this Thursday, when they where alone in the office and she was, I quote, "extremely hot"..at least, that is what he said.(remember he still crushes on her). He couldn't help but caress and kiss her and according to him, he is devastated he had to do that. Today, his ex made advances again...he is confused as he is weak when she comes around...

(Pardon the cut-and-joined explanation) hoping you understand the crux.

Now, I am to advise him when we meet, this Sunday, what should I say? I'll still pray about it though...

SKAMM:
He boards a bus in Nigeria it's in the news. A Nigerian boards a bus abroad nobody even cares to take a pic of him. What the hell is wrong with this country!?

My dear, sometimes I wonder how we will ever grow!!

I think the most important lesson I learnt from the movie is - Always tell yourself the truth and identify where your problem is, in order to find a solution to it.

A case in point - Rancho's friend(who believed that only praying to his "god" instead of reading will help him pass his exams).

I may equally add that we should always follow our passion as it is a sure way to success - Funshu wanddu, the scientist who took someone else's name, and went to school not for certificate but to follow his passion. You can imagine what he did to the hall prefect on his first day in school...

...very funny TV show

Blame Goodluck Jonathan for embezzling all of Nigeria's money...smh

So nice to know that a 20yr old could "speak" this way and be equivocal. Especially in our world of 2day wh :-Xere teenagers are getting pregnant here and there.

Stupedinluv, I'll rather advice that you do what my bible says...Wherefore, let him that thinketh he standeth, take heed, lest he falls - 1 Choir 10:12. Also, Jesus said to His disciples, "Watch n Pray".

I brought these quotations to remind you that most often we do not wrestle with flesh, but with principalities and powers in high places...yea! This is me sounding spiritual-because it is what you need to overcome. Couple with your well laid moral foundation.

Wishing you a successful future

N/B: I ain't claiming to have been a saint, but I love it when people know their worth and stand up for it. Shalom

CaptainECole:
As we all know, Nigeria is our country, despite all the bad images and stories emanating from Nigeria, notwithstanding, I still believe we have good and valid reasons to remain here in this beautiful country.

[/b] 9 Reasons Why CaptainECole Should Come Back To Nigeria

[b]1.Bragging Rights
As a Nigerian, you sure have the bragging rights in your country, because it's your country, you're not subject to any immigration laws,visa issues, green card etc. you're a boss right here
2.Good Market
Yes! Nigeria has unarguably the best market in Africa, because of our huge population and standard purchasing power, think about it,any business can thrive in Nigeria, little wonder we have many foreign companies like MTN,Shell,DHL,Emirates Airline etc... Because we've got the market... oh yes
3.Ease of Living
Many will agree with me that Nigeria Is a very easy country to live in compared to UK,the US,Germany and other abroad countries. This is because in Nigeria, you can live according to ur income,I.e. there are many cheap houses,no one is compelled to pay tax,the bills like electricity, water bills are relatively cheap.
4.Diverse Opportunities
Here in Naija,you can become whatever you wanna be,you can do whatever you wanna do as long as you have the capital and skills to do it,.. Whether you wanna go into importation like the Igbos ,or you wanna dive into agriculture, or perhaps you wanna start a company or you wanna open a big provisions store, you can here in Nigeria.
5.Economic Growth
Who wan argue? Nigeria is the largest economy in Africa, it's the second-top investment destination in Africa, our economy grows very fast each year, this only shows you that we are heading there"
. A wise Nigerian can exploit the economic potentials of this country, there are untapped natural resources, there are unexploited business areas, meeeehn.. if you're smart enough, you can become a billionaire overnight in Nigeria. Better than being an average man in the US.
6.Entertainment Value
No African country rivals us when it comes to entertainment. Be it music, be it movies,be it talk shows, be it events.. we're number one .. We Nigerians enjoy loads of entertainment from our local contents,our music,our nollywood movies,our comedy shows,our events ... won't you rather be happy at home??
7.Environment
The Nigerian environment I'd fun,you talk of the warm weather, abundance of rain,good soil for agriculture, the many companies, the familiarity with fellow Nigerians... we are fun people we are smart that's why the foreigners hate us,because we too smart ... Naija man nor dey dull ... we keep it real

You can add yours. Lalasticlala,Seun,shey you agree with me?

You Haven't Seen Anything Yet - If you have witness someone's head being chopped off, or 4 kids being burn for nothing. If you have had to dodge bullets from Arm robbers, who think sporadic shooting is same as robbing. If a soldier man who is supposed to protect you is now the one molesting you for using the same road with him...guy, u never chi chumching

9) Syria is small compared to Nigeria - when your siblings and parents have been massacred by herdsmen. When BH throws bom like ludo and blow themselves up like balloons, leading to mass dead...bros, experiencing these would make you retype these 7-things...

Well, I won't call out or mention names again. I would rather not claim ignorant of the spiritual cum physical reasons for the outfit. I was only concern or try to understand the rationale behind the photo, as posterity can't even identify them(physically). I know God can, but He doesn't require their pix to do that.

Trying not to be insistent, Youngsage has reiterated my question...

gabinogem:
the spiritual works in tandem with the physical hence there should be no discrepancy about both... religion should stop dividing & commonizing things.

You are right, but the worldly way of life do sometimes go against the spiritual things...note, I use worldly instead of physical, because I know that the spiritual needs the physical to express "itself".

AirSultan, I wish his response did expatiate more on the topic. He rather explained the connection between spiritual and physical.

If there are no scholarly explanations to the act as rep in the photo...I really have not learn

Lalatisclala or MOD involve, I hope this is in the right section?

gabinogem:
Religion is practice by those who think they can minimize the activies of the world & glorify the spiritual life therefore making a fool of themselves at the long-run.

You are sounding philosophical and more clarification is requested. Meanwhile, I don't think it is wrong for you to seek spirituality rather than indulging in the worldly way of doing things. But, you should be able to explain why you act the way you do.

@AirSultan, with due respect, I never meant to make someone's biz my problem...I am rather a student of nature who seek to understand things around me...so if you felt insulted, apologies. I felt, you could rather educate me on the things you know that I don't know, but wish to understand(don't think that is a bad request). Cheers

Bro, I asked for understanding not for the way you view someone's religion

bigiyaro:
Dat is mumu-slim for u. Dem no jst make sense.

I may b a bit controversial, however, I welcome insights on this issue.
I am not ignorant of the fact that this pix might be sensational and people tmay become so "emotions" about my question.
I am open to learning and I hope I will get more of that rather than insults
I stumbled at this pix and was asking myself questions, one of which I hope I may be educated or some explanations given here. Covering yourself, with the reasons you may have is okay by me. I am only wondering what one hopes to acheive by taking a group pix with such attires...so, fill me in...

Note: I have spent at least a year at the seat of caliphate...Sokoto and I am very tolerant wrt religion, so I have no bias as regards this question...

What is the essence of photo-taking, if one cannot identify the people in it

Monalisa185:
com'on man, we all know that was a beautiful joke...

I wish it was...thank God the village head came and made some incantations...already, my phone battery was almost off. I am back to PH now. Guess, I was supposed to miss the Rivers re-run...#experienceofalifetime
@Joecutie...yeah, it sounded that way, until I noticed that people came with their mats...reason, they were not sure how's long it'll take for the village head to come

@Joecutie don't laugh only, pls advice. As for those who suggest book levels...a beg, that is more risky, as the last time a cousin attempted that, he had tires all over him, as Anaconda would wrap a thing...don't ask what happened afterwards...

lmao...thanks man, you just made my morning...[/quote]My pleasure...just wondering wat to do ooooo

Really, some of our pretties need to exchange their beauty for brain...I really got pissed though...after all my warming-up to do the needful...guess what happened next...

She walked into the banking hall, her pointed shoe announcing her arrival minutes before you saw her.

She wore that kind of dress that convinces you that heaven is missing an angel.

The aroma of her perfume would easily finish a bowl of eba for its sweetness.

And the phone which she gingerly held to her ear, without minding the security guy frantically waving at her that calls are not allowed in banking halls, will cost a small fortune.

She stepped forward, picked a deposit slip and searched frantically for a pen.

About five guys offered her their pens but, shame to bad people, she took mine maybe because I was closest to her.

After a while, or a long while because time stood still, she stood up and inched closer to me.

She whispered: "Please can you spell 'thirty' for me?"

I looked down at her deposit slip in surprise.
She'd written: 'tarty tausanh'!

Iyammi!!!!!

Happy Sunday everyone

We must always stop playing politics with everything...I so wish our so called leaders did practice this...Wike, please reconsider...

When despicable acts occur in our locality we should call it by its name and not try to shroud it in secrecy or blaspheme against people's religion. However, we must always speak out for those who can't speak irrespective of who is involved, be it the Pope, Bishop, Sultan, Emir, Pastor, etc.

We should all join hands to conderm illegalities especially as it concerns our weaker vessels (women, children and handicapped). For that is why we were made strong. If I don't speak against "Christians" who commit offences, help me do that my fellow brothers, as I may and will often speak against any "Muslim" who commit offences...

Remember, a mother may sometimes not be strong morally enough to expose his robber-child, but the neighbour can: hoping this adage would be understood.

Disclaimer: I am not speaking for Christians or Muslims, but as a full moral being and will not answer for anybody's abuse of each other's religion.

#Loveyourneighbour...

Happy B'day to a great servant of God

sarutobie:
Can someone give me one good reason,just one reason why a sane mind should believe in "one Nigeria"?
You southerners are bloody cowards! Online warriors..your land and women are being pillaged and plundered by goatherders and you can't do zilch about it..you can only fight yourselves, perfecting the art of saboteur among yourselves.. Pulling each other down..claiming to be more educated and sophisticated than these marauding plunderers.. Jokers!

Truth...I liked your post...then I ask; what have you done in your little corner and power?

Can't laugh alone.

Boko haram members entered a church while the service was going on. They asked the ushers to close every door and windows so that nobody can escape. They counted the number of worshippers and they were 150. They told them they would kill 100 out of these 150 members but in an alphabetical order of names, starting with the pastors. They approached the senior pastor asking:"What's your name?" The pastor said Zechariah Zwingina. The next pastor said Zebedee Zaccheus, the third pastor said Zemmanuel Zwiliams. They approached the elders. The first one said Zarepath Zolomon. The next one said Zalade Zomorin. The next one said Zetunji Zolusegun Zesther, Zimilehin. They approached the choir and the first chorister out of fear pointed to the organist and said his name is Abraham Ahmadu. The Organist screamed: "He is a liar. My name is Zabraham Zahmadu." If you were in the congregation, what will be your name?

Please Ladies dress or makeup and appear decent... You may miss your man or look so awkward with that "painting"...
