daifeanyi68844: I'm an only son and in relationship with a lady I love so much.
We started dating while we were students. Our relationship is 4 years and 8 months. Everything was going fine until she moved into Lagos and I introduced her to my mom.
Now, any issue I have with my mom, she calls the innocent girl and says it's because of her this thing happened.
My mom and I live in a three bedroom apartment. She and my father are separated.
One minute she's nice to the girl, the next she isn't. We broke up today because of this. I'm really hurt. This girl loves me unconditionally, she supports me, treats me so well. When I started my business she gave me her 200k savings to invest in it. I can't even believe my mom is doing all this. I don't know what to do. I'm really hurt. We planned on getting married this year. I don't know if I would ever find a good person like her.
On the other hand, my mom doesn't even care. I want to cut every ties I have with her.
Dear OP,
If you lose that lady, after all the comments you've seen on this thread, it'll be really sad and you may never come across someone like that again.
Love, a wonderful partner and a good, working romantic relationship is scarce in the world already so, if you've got a chance at the real thing, please don't play with it.
Now to your mum's issue...
I can understand how unreasonable parents can be sometimes, especially mothers but they've still got a place in our lives so...
Inasmuch as you respect her and love her, politely but firmly make your stand.
It's your decision, not hers. Besides, you're a man, aren't you? Make your stand.
Some may attack you with "what an elder sees while sitting, a child can't see even if he climbs a tree" as per your mum may have her reasons for doing what she did.
Let me tell you something. The elders do miss it once in a while and will continue to miss it sometimes because they're not perfect.
I've seen several parents change their opinions and decisions when they realised they had it all wrong. Many even later thanked God that their children at the time didn't obey them.
Lastly...
If you're a Christian, pray to God for guidance. He'll help.
Gavel: I am super excited as I was conferred with a doctorate degree in Law today at the 15th and 16th combined convocation of the Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka.
Drienzia: It is true that every sovereign Nation has the right to be part of any association they deem fit, However while at it, they must not do so, so much as to affect their neighbor. This is because , where one’s right ends, that’s where the right of another begins. Even the S.40 CFRN 1999, which provided for freedom of association also subjected the rights under the section to S.45 CFRN 1999. We all know that allowing Ukraine to join NATO will bring security threat to Russia and in all reasonability, it is only wise for Putin to act as much as he could to prevent such. No one is preventing Ukraine from joining any international organization, but they must not do so as to affect their neighbor(Russia), same way the United States Government wouldn't be comfortable with a Russia military base in Mexico under the guise of “international association”.
If I have a neighbor adjacent to my house, who happens to bring armed men which are unknown to law to the vicinity or breeds dogs that are capable of causing grievous bodily harm on people without proper prevention from escaping, I definitely will be uncomfortable(for my safety and that of my family) and would report such to the appropriate authorities or do all I can to abate it, not necessarily because I don’t want my neighbor to bring his friends around nor am I against him owning a dog, but because he must not do so as to affect my right. Where Mr A’s right ends, that’s where Mr B’s right begins.
minks: For those of us who are not regular church goers, gather here and let's learn the Bible from each other.
My favourite scripture is Romans 8:32
"He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?" (King James Version)
This scripture never fails to remind me of God's unconditional love. When the days get dark, I open my Bible to this scripture to remind myself that God is always with me and He cares about me.
What's your favourite Bible verse? Share with us so others can learn a thing or two.
Psalm 110:2
The Lord will stretch forth your strong sceptre from Zion saying "Rule in the midst of your enemies."
Hashabiah: Putin abeg o, no Nigerian said this thing ...it's our cattle-rustling leader that pushed for it. And even he himself will write an apology letter in the coming weeks . Biko abeg
Very, super-duper, extra, over belated I don't even know what to say...but better late than never maybe and hopefully intentions will become actions hopefully
In this century, time and age, if any woman goes for deliverance alone with any pastor or herbalist who tells her to take off her clothes and ends up getting raped, she is to blame. Abi ladies have thrown their brains into the gutter ni? idiat!
Maks27: Having a girlfriend is the last thing on my mind now but there is this girl that's forcing herself on me.
In the street this girl announced to everyone that she is my girlfriend when I have never asked her out.
If I go out and she sees me, she will hold my hands, hug me and even try to kiss me in presence of people so they will think we are dating.
What happened today made me annoyed, we had our Global prayer walk in RCCG today and when we reached out destination everyone looked for bike to go home. This girl forced herself on the bike I took and sat down in between in front of everyone. She will appear in my house without permission, wash my clothes. Call me I don't know why.
She is fine and okay as a lady o. Infact alot of guys in the street are hailing me for having the best girl in the street but I am not just into her and any girl for now.
People of Nairaland how do I settle this matter
If you're not actually into her, (because you fit dey form hard guy o ) then tell her off and mean it.
FromZeroToHero: I have this airtel line I only use for browsing. Its not my personal line, just strictly for browsing. Though sometimes I make calls with it whenever there's a bonus airtime in it. So yesterday I saw a credit alert of N3000 worth of airtime and I think It was a mistake by someone. I called customer care but they refused to reveal the identity of the person. I seriously want to make a refund but I don't know to do so.
If you can't reach the person, just say a prayer or two for him or her (if you're a Christian sha)...
Omicron007: Back in school, teachers displayed varying characters in the discharge of their duties. Some were very dedicated while others are just there for the renumeration.
Back in Secondary School, we had this stingy Economics Teacher. He was very frugal and he always had a list in his pocket. He was always in one brown trousers always. We ended up calling him Mr.Brown.
However, we always used the nickname when he was not around in order to escape some punishment.
Let's hear from you.
Red neck Cos he was fair and whenever he got angry, his neck would turn red
obembet: There are two things all relationships have in common: ups and downs. While relationships have their seasons and are bound to have their rough patches, a strong foundation can help you weather the storm and continue to grow and strengthen your bond as time passes.
Fortunately, no one has to take on relationships alone. So you need each other to grow the relationship.
So you have some personal qualities which your partner might not have.
Therefore, What features is a must have for a partner you intend to date or marry?
KiNg0G: This is my second time to be unlawfully arrested and taken to a police station. yesterday their defense was they heard a complaint some boys were constituting nuisance around the neighborhood so they came to perform what they call Raid. I been unlucky,I had to go get barbecue and banana around 8:30pm just to have as my dinner...I needed something light. The keke I entered on my way back I was stopped, they ask for my ID, which I didn't have on me. Buh I told them what I do for a living....just because they saw Tatoes on my hand... They put me in the back of the car along with some boys that they have already hold..I had to sleep cell for the sec time in my life yesterday.. before morning came, I gave them my statement and got bailed out by my landlady.
here are the top 7 things I observed
1) HOLD YOUR GATE FEE
you be surprised what gate fee am I talking about, are you entering a concert that wizkid and davido are performing artists with ladies twerking, no bro..it's a cell filled with lowlife criminals of different crimes.. hardened criminals..as soon as they see a fresh person about to be put inside cell.. THEY ALWAYS EXPECT YOU TO COME IN WITH MONEY. because for them survival is what they all about..and to survive they need food daily, because many of them have been abandoned there with no body coming to bail them out.
I was forced to pay #500
2) COUNTER OR INSIDE CELL YOUR POCKETS DECIDE
can you believe I was told by one slim female police clerk, that if I was to stay in the counter till day brake I have to pay #1500. it wasn't new to me, I had only 500naira and some change left after the barbecue purchase..I pleaded with her to take it but it fell on deaf ears..some guys that came with me quickly sorted them self out and they were told to pull their bosers and sit in chair at the corner...while the rest of us who couldn't afford was taken inside cell.
3) BAil is not free
Why was I arrested? They saw me with the barbecue and banana I bought on my way home, but they still took me to the station because I had a Tatoe like who does that?.in a civilse county...I told them I was into music during my teen days, even til now, I still get called for features and mentoring.. but this police they Just didn't care to hear from me at that time....I knew they took me as a meal ticket.mthey said am a bad boy because I have a Tatoes.
4) YOUR SOCIETAL STATUS DOSENT MATTER INSIDE A NIGERIA POLICE CELL
Those hardened criminals don't care if you own 3 venzas or benz...range rover. Or if you've build an estate or operate in real estate. They just need you to maintain and follow the laid out rules.... they don't care if your a big man or not...INFACT THE MORE AJEBOYISH YOU LOOK, the weak they sense you to be. so you have to be focus, shine your eyes and behave like them.. or try to.
They say when In romans behave like the romans.
5) SENIORITY DEPENDS ON THE STRONGEST
Yes in a Nigerian cell, it doesn't matter who first came, but who is perceived as the strongest.... but the person who has been there for a week has a higher advantage than someone who just came that paid gate fee to get a place to lie down with the smell of piss and shît besides him. Why? Because no how you came in and meet 5 guys inside..those guys has already bonded since morning...gisting... telling stories and the rest. So that just came need to use your head...if not those guys will change it instantly towards you.
6) YOUR FOOD IS OUR FOOD
I DON'T think I have to explain this, is self explanatory...the cell member's has its own governing Bodies from PRESIDO TO DIFFERENT POST. so if your bail was delayed, and your people brings food for you. The right thing to do is call them to join you.. you can't just eat it Alone. It's never done that way on my 2 experience.
7) EARLY MORNING SINGING DEVOTION
ON my 2 experience, 5am everyone is expected to wake and the morning devotion starts between all the cells in the police station trust me if it's 4 cells...the 4 cells will coordinate the morning devotins together singing praises and worship to God almighty for life...then the presido leads them in prayer.
Note: this is not to discredit the nigeria police system but for we all to come together and share and relate With our different experiences in life thanks
The way they are hardened criminals so are they innocent people who are Just arrested unjustly..
Omicron007: Childhood days was sweet. This particular football brings back sweet memories.
We played this on the streets of Rayfield in Jos those years.
Did you play this as a kid?
Let's hear from you!
Wow Does this ball still exist? Not only did I play with this ball as a kid, it was the souvenir for one of my birthday parties. How the times have gone though...
Mhistasaints: Hello guys! I need a simple advice. I am a married man, my ex-girlfriend is also married. I've been married for 2years now and she got married 2months ago. When I got married, she told me she was disappointed at me, that why couldn't I come and beg her when she said no. She was the one that left me in the relationship telling me that her people say that I was too young and had nothing. I focused, achieved and got married at 23yrs.
Of late, she chatted me up and we discussed. She started being too intimate to the extent of trying to discussing her sexual marital life with me on her she doesn't like having sex with her husband. Few days ago, she started asking me for money. I am sensing something fishy.
What do I do?
Why are you giving her a listening ear in the first place?
Besides, I thought exes were to remain in the past and not become your latest gist partner?
She's asking you for money and instead of you to put your slippers under your armpit and run, ya still sensing something fishy?
