RomanceRe: Will You Accept A Gift From An Ex? by TheSeeker(m): 5:52pm On Nov 23, 2009
Ujujoan:
OK first of all, I wasnt 'yapping'. I think I stated it in clear and precisie words. I am friends with my ex and seriously, I dont see why that should be an issue. Like you said, not all relationships are meant to work . . not all romances lead to marriage. I beleive that what we shared was beyond romance and just because it cant go on dosen't mean I have to become strangers with him.

Honestly, I dont give a damn about you do 'personally' with your exes. I have my reasons why I need to remain friends with him and I think my BF should understand that. If he dosen't want to, then I dont think I want to be with him! Yes, it's serious!

He decided to buy me a gift, for a very good reason . . I accepted it not because I am gift-hungry . . but because it was from him! I've turned down a number of gifts, but I can't turn down one from him! And if I decide to buy him one too, I wont even hesitate about it!

I opened this thread because I started wondering if I did right. But after thinking about it, now more than ever, I have no regerets!

Yes, people value gifts (not just women) not because their lives depended on it, but because it's good to know that someone cared enough to bother.

I'm not surprised u decided to take sides with Lexi on this but I think I deserve a little credit to know when my relationships, friendships and associations is likely to put me into trouble. Despite what you guys think, people are not always as scheming and inconsiderate as you imagined them to be. If my BF knows me well enough then he would trust me. If he dosent, well . . . I dont need to overstress the fact that I dont need to be with such a person!

My word means a lot to me and yours should too. If I'm dating you and you have a r/ship with your ex and you tell me I dont have to worry about it . . . I'll beleive you. Because I'd expect the same trust if the tables were turned. If you lied about it, then dont you think you are the one with the problem huh We are all adults and we have a right to decide who to make friends with, if it means that much to me, I expect my so-called BF to understand!
All of a sudden you're making this seem like I attacked your personality. I was just stating my personal opinion on the issue and what you accept or do doesn't in any way affect me, so why would I want to bother that much to slur your decision? When I said 'yapping' I talked about the general things I've seen, not on NL but outside of it.

This isn't a matter of taking sides with Lexi. Whatever it comes down to, it is what it is. Simply because another man accepts it from his girlfriend doesn't mean I should accept it, in fact, it's best if she keeps it to herself than tell me about it, and if I did see it and ask her and she tells me, it won't bother me an inch. See, there are lots of headaches men give themselves in a relationship. I have learned in the course of the month and some few weeks back that some things aren't really worth it, seriously, you look back into things you do and some issues and you ask yourself if you're sane at all.

If your boyfriend understands why you're still friends with your ex, sure why not, go ahead and do what you gotta do. But if he doesn't support it, then what happens? You break up because you think he doesn't 'trust' you enough to believe you? Well, in my case, most times it doesn't have to do with trust because you know what, I choose to go by what she tells me, I don't dig, it's not my thing to do. Tell me and I'll believe you but when I start to see otherwise I'll be patient enough to see it through and make my decision at the end of the day.

A man that watches out his woman in suspicion, in my opinion, doesn't have anything tangible to do with his time. If she wants to go on a date with her ex, sure let her go; if she wants to hang out with him, let her; if she chooses to even sleep over at his house, let her - only when a man learns how to allow a woman have her freedom can he know peace and if I get the last category where Lexi mentioned that he doesn't give himself headache, I think that's the best category for every man. However, all these I've mentioned should be based on trust and nothing more. . . but there's no denying the fact that men are possessive and not like most women think it's insecurity which was why I said we should draw a fine line between possessiveness and insecurity.

It can also be deduced that when a man is possessive of his woman, either he's a freak, jerk, abuser or he truly loves his woman to that point and women shouldn't misconstrue that with distrust, disbelief or insecurity. That said, as much as I may want to contradict your opinions, I agree with you that we are all adults and should make friends with whoever we choose to and not be chosen friends for.

As much as I'd like to claim the credit of being a seer, I'm a seeker that seeks everything from good to bad. I've found lots of things and tell you what, the most successful relationships are mainly those who have undergone different kinds of stresses and strains, trauma and tensions because believe it or not, if you're strong enough you'll derive your strength right there, and on the other hand, it's the beginning of an emotional wreck. . . all comes down to where you want to pick up your line from.
RomanceRe: Love Thoughts by TheSeeker(m): 4:07am On Nov 23, 2009
Posakosa, it doesn't make one bit of sense that you go on every thread insulting everyone at sight. . . it's intellectually debasing for a supposed controversial female turned male like you. How someone chooses to represent his/her opinion is of no importance to you - you either get blinded to read them or you comment with the accurate and on-point usage of your brainpower. I'm not insulting you but that's not to say I mind starting one, however, this is a forum and a kind of decorum should be maintained. What you're doing, so far, is troubling but indeed pushes you up on a higher scale of inconsiderably mental deterioration.

FL Gators:
Excuse me? And you think I dnt believe that men are valuable? angry angry
I wasn't referring to you or anyone, I'm just saying what I feel. . . . but whether or not you believe men are valuable depends on your yardstick for what you call a man. To some women, a dunce man is a man, and anything different from that is a monster. Pardon the explanation but that's the best I can come up with right now.
Gabry:
The secrets of a successfull relationship is when you always imagine yourself in your partner's shoes when you want to do sumthyin. Like before you do sumthin, always imagine yourself in his shoes and how would he feel if you are to do anything in life before you react. The 2nd thing is to always treat him
If you ask me, I'll correctly say most women will think this is bullshit, but in fact, they are very intelligible golden nuggets. Unfortunately, the truth is some men won't even appreciate these, and men who would appreciate these, don't get them from their women.

You want the truth? Here is the truth. . . There is no magical pills, herbs, medicine or device that will make your man hood bigger. If your woman is getting you stuff to enlarge your size, perhaps you should be looking elsewhere?

Having said that, I have a feeling that your post is not true.
You definitely are not a Nigerian or simply don't know about it.


Poster, it depends on what you want to do but I hear a lot of people use it and I have a few friends who even ship it to their friends in the US and UK and shit works like hell. I wouldn't know if there'll be complications later but I don't think so because it's a natural herb which in fact, is good for the body. On the other hand, try eating ginger like daily for about two months and see the result.

RomanceRe: Will You Accept A Gift From An Ex? by TheSeeker(m): 12:12am On Nov 23, 2009
Uju, it's funny how you women open your mouth to yap that you're friends with your ex, which also makes me do nothing but wonder why you can't work on your relationship or why it was started in the first place. But I understand, not all relationships are meant to work, while some practically will or won't depending on the basics and basis of the relationship in itself.

Personally, I don't make friends with exes, so it'll be darn difficult to accept any gifts from them, but that's not to say they don't offer, of course they do but I don't accept them. Nevertheless, the kind of gift differs: if it's a birthday gift, you can accept it and you'll be fine in my books; if it's Christmas, it's all good, thanksgiving, that's acceptable; but tell me it's a regular gift because he thought of you? That's insane.

Someone said it's exposure of insecurity. . . too bad, people need to refine the use of certain English words these days and only if that person knows what insecurity means because all of a sudden when a man has got principles in a relationship, it suddenly has turned out to be insecurity. . . go back to the basics of relationships and review the rules and you can have a look at what insecurity means.

[Quote author=whitelexi]You can argue with that word "Enemy" for as long as u like, the bottomline is women just are used to collecting, men are more disciplined cos we're more into giving than taking.

You've stated your view and said your bf doesn't mind, fair enough for u. I've made my own point, stating clearly that i'd gladly leave my babe if she does the same thing - Men are different, some accept shit from women, others dont. . . Women will most def prefer those that accept shit from them, cos that affords them more freedom to act up. . . hmmm

Why do some men accept shit where others dont? Well, some men tend to take relationships as seriously as the eventual marriage - understandably so. . . Others see a relationship as an avenue to study the woman, and so it is taken a lot less seriously. Such men can break things off and feel no hurt or pain. . . That category is clearly where i belong!

I have never, and still will not accept trash, principles are simple to read but difficult to keep. . . You're either in or you're out, there's no in-between point. . . Its that simple. Cool[/quote]You have stated my mind accurately. It's a pity how some women value gifts as if their lives depend on it, and with this principle, I tell you some women will want to see you as being bossy or overbearing. It doesn't even make sense to be close friends with your ex in this fragile world let alone accepting gifts. And the funniest thing is if you tell your girl you're not comfortable with her making close friends with her ex, she'll come off with this assumption that you don't trust her or whatnot and ask her, what ever happened to you not towing the line where you can't be trusted? Why not act in a trusted manner and see if you can't be believed? Act right and responsibly and your man will take you serious.

But like I have earlier said, there's nothing wrong if the gifts are mainly for some festive moments like Christmas, Halloween, Thanksgiving, New Year and all of that, but a regular gift? I'll just shut up and add it up to one of her shortcomings and when that day of reckoning comes, I'll pronounce it as part of her judgment.
