PropertiesRe: Is A Survey Plan Enough? by ThaThinka(op): 4:37pm On Nov 16, 2020

It depends on who the seller is.
If it's family (omó-onile), estate company, or individual who as once bought from omó-onile and want to resell.
So kindly clarify who the seller is
Thanks for the response. I think it's a real estate company. Does it make a difference if the party offering it is a family or an individual, please?

bolajinoni1:
yes but confirm the owner full name
Ok, thanks.

PropertiesIs A Survey Plan Enough? by ThaThinka(op): 11:09pm On Nov 15, 2020
Hello, everyone. I wish to know if a survey plan is enough proof of ownership when looking to buy a piece of land.

I'd appreciate the views of people that are more knowledgeable about these matters. Thanks.

Hmmm.

@ the bold, isn't it ironic that they are heavily guilty of this sin even as single people? Hardly will you find a man that hasn't been a part of lust in one way or another. So generally speaking, if this is why men get married, eh... let's just say they're better off NOT married.

I have issues with the "getting married cause you want children" ideology. I mean, the devil works in mischievous ways and one wouldn't want to get stuck in a childless home for long. Asides, I still maintain men can have children outside of marriages. Orphanages are in their hundreds. Homeless children are in their millions. Good lord!

Proposing on bended knee is just being fancy. And maybe silly but I won't judge. My problem is the ugly beasts that may emerge when all the fanfare is done with.

Coming to you, you can still decide to NOT marry. Priesthood is the easiest way out of this predicamentcheesy . Have you heard of gay pride? Yeah, that's another one. When I think of more, I'll definitely hala you wink


Conversationally, I believe that most men lack a proper discernment of why they are getting married. Marriage is for companionship, first and foremost, not children, not sex and definitely not for acquiring wealth. Building friendship with her, being her friend, and staying her friend ensures you two can weather the storms when they come waging in.
I guess women must be saints then since you appear to think practically all men are guilty of lust. And for sexual sin, men commit it alone, right? undecided

Also, does the fact that some men commit fornication before getting married means it's no longer a sin if they continue with it and forget marriage altogether? I'm struggling to grasp the point in that second paragraph ("Hmmm" was the first).

Regarding the bold, so you believe that? Strange. For someone that seems to have issue with men generally. And is that companionship the intimacy, which appears to be the only thing some ladies have to offer?

Stop generalising. All men are not the same - the same can also be said of women. You don't describe everyone by the traits of a few or even the majority. Try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt until they prove to not be worth it.

Because of the action of a proportion, for instance, many Westerners are suspicious of every Nigerian as being fraudulent. But the question is: do you agree to be called a fraud simply because you're a Nigerian?

Sixfeetbelle:
@ the bold, why are men not just getting laid then? Why move ten steps further and wife her? I mean they know these things about women, they've seen it over and over again, yet they are the ones going down on their knees and proposing to women every other day. Even in the so-called western societies.

Riddle me this: If men know women are a "liability" and lazy, and jobless and entitled and all manner of adjectives you can think of, why are men still looking to tie a woman down to them?
Interesting questions.

Let's just say most men have been conditioned by the society to get married. If you don't, people would consider you an irresponsible person and may be pestering you.

Also, some men marry for religious reasons. They don't want to be guilty of sinful, non-marital intimacy.

Still some do so mainly because they want children.

As for those ones kneeling upandan, it's their cup of tea. That's what some redpillers call "simping." Why would an African man like me do that? undecided Maybe it's because I always try to keep my emotional side under control and let reason reign. grin

Were it not for the fact that I am Christian (and try somewhat to live like one) I'd rather not marry at all if the only one available is materialistic and thinks intimacy is the only or best offer she has. Have I died since all these years that I haven't had it? undecided

FunnyDude:
Stop this complain. You're the man, go hustle and take care of your woman.That's the natural law of life.
If you don't want to take care of your woman, leave her alone and be single.

No one point a gun in your head that you must marry or be in a relationship.
I didn't feel like commenting on anything this night, but I couldn't resist the urge to reply this one.

Your comment was somewhat besides the point. One thing I think the guy was getting across was that our ladies should be more responsible.

Is intimacy the best they can offer? Come on! If that's all, a man could simply decide to just be paying to get laid rather than taking on the responsibilities of marriage.

What is wrong in asking for things that could improve your life and make you less dependent? Most of these ladies are only interested in pleasurable items and not in self-improvement. undecided

Now I see there's a huge level of ignorance in Nigeria... This was never the idea... Stop destroying the South!
As in ehn I just weak.

What right-thinking person demolishes banks, police stations, public properties e.t.c. and think they are fighting a good cause? Isn't that an invitation to disaster?

If you are not a crook, know that you are fighting a criminal cause if you join anyone in these shameful acts. Some even released possibly hardened criminals into the society all in the name of a protest.

The #EndSARS movement is (or was) peaceful. We don't know what yours is if it's violent and has criminal colouration.

DontBullshitMe:
People foresaw this. They requested that the protests be stopped and the blocking of highways be suspended but rather we were all insulted and cursed.

Now, they stopped because of the loss of lives and properties that could have been avoided if this step had been taken earlier.

Anyway, better late than never.
Like they foresaw people's lives being frustrated in the country while nothing is done about it, right? What good has their foresight brought to the average Nigerian?

If we had a responsible government, something more convincing would have been done about the requests of the peaceful protesters quickly. They chose to linger instead until some despicable elements crawled in to unleash mayhem. They now crowned it with the killing of the innocent in a so-called democracy. Abegi! undecided

Security personnel should use this opportunity to purge those miscreants out of Nigeria. If there's any group perpetuating crime out there, they should be arrested immediately and those resisting arrest should be killed. So Nigerians can walk without fear at night.

Brotherly, some comments are better ignored. Simply be certain and convinced of what you believe in.

Nigerians only know how to carry religion for head. Most are hypocrites - kettle calling the pot black.

# in the same Bible God ask moses to make a statue
Numbers21:8 and the Lord said onto Moses, make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole and it shall come to pass, that everyone that is bitten, when he looks upon it shall live

He ask David to also make a statue
1st chronicle28:18: for the alter of incensemade of refined gold and its weight, also his plan for the golden chariot of cherubim that spread their wings and covered the ark of the covenant of the lord

Exodus 25:18 And you shall make two cherubim of gold, of hammered work shall you make them on the two end of the mercy seat.

Making a statue is not a sin, worshipping it is.

Thanks, but the point is actually whether it makes sense having a farm with no defined limit/area.

You're never in love. Although I am uncertain if I have ever expressed romantic love with a person, I have an idea of what "true" love is - in my mind. This type I am talking about will be very hard to get over.

I'm less fanciful these days than I was when younger - those days I used to watch Indian movies regularly. grin I did have a certain mental picture of this love back then, but it's become somewhat faint now.

Na how to chop and see money spend dey on top pesin mind these days. So logic also comes first for me. But something at the back of my mind still tells me logic could slide to the background if I found someone that proves truly worth living and dying for.

I too like epistles sha. cheesy
AgricultureFarm For Me: How Does This Sound? by ThaThinka(op): 9:47pm On Oct 21, 2020
There's a company I learned about recently that helps people to farm, harvest, sell, and then pay returns. The requirements are that you buy a piece of land (and pay for transfer document) and also pay for cultivation.

The land is supposed to be yours since you bought it. What I found strange is that a specific portion would not be allocated to you until if and when you wish to run your farm by yourself.

This doesn't sound right, I think. Or is this how it's done?

Anyone knowledgeable about this should please share their views. Thanks.

mariahAngel, those are a lot of questions. They are better pondered on than answered. grin

pcguru1:
I'll take that over beauty anyday, besides it says more about you. Why do you care about people's opinion ?
I thought I would as well; just don't know clearly why I am having this feeling.

By the way, I don't consider myself the vain type. I don't place too much premium on beauty or "show-offs" - they don't last. This is partly why I am a bit worried why I don't want to be seen with this lady sometimes. Strangely, I didn't feel this way when I visited her.

About people's opinion, I'd say it's a subconscious thing sort of. I can be intentionally defiant to what people think so long I'm convinced that I'm not doing anything wrong.

Thanks infogenius and all others that responded. Pocohantas, that's deep.

mariahAngel:
Why do you want to marry her?
Is it an arranged marriage thingy?
It's not an arranged marriage thingy. In fact, I often tell her not to think in the direction of marriage yet. I haven't really done anything that could make me feel indebted to her.

I'm only thinking of possibly getting married to her because she seems the understanding and supportive type.

@thorpido, I am not fully sure I'm love. I just feel for her somehow.

Richy4, um, I am not certain I got your drift.

There is absolutely no sense getting married to a lady u cannot be identified with.

Something is definitely wrong somewhere if u have this kind of resentment
Thanks for your response, sir. One is better than none.

I agree with that your first sentence. I was just wondering if it's something I could overcome with time. Do you think so?

I won't call it resentment per se. I don't feel hatred towards her. It's just that she sometimes looks older (even though I am supposed to be older) or I don't feel comfortable about her appearance.

FamilyNot Wanting To Be Seen With Lady Considering For Marriage by ThaThinka(op): 10:38pm On Oct 07, 2020
A quick question, especially directed at those knowledgeable or experienced about this sort of matter:

Is it normal to sometimes not want to be seen with a lady you're thinking of possibly getting married to?

I think this is not a good sign, if you ask me. But I haven't been in a situation like this before, so I don't really know what to think.

Is this a feeling I can possibly get over with time after getting married to this person? Please advise.
