Events › Re: Meaning Of RSVP On Invitations by Timijo(m): 3:27pm On Nov 05, 2012

Isla Jenmi: What Does RSVP Mean When You See it on an Invitation? hehehe i caught y'all on this one, most people would be saying to themselves rice stew very plenty abi? well you are wrong RSVP means nothing like it..Let's Clear Up the Confusion Over the Phrase "RSVP"..you can thank me later....

This tip should help hosts and guests alike, because there seems to be a lot of confusion about the meaning of the term RSVP and what guests should do if they receive a request for them to RSVP.
I hear more and more often, and have found in my personal experience, that hosts often do not receive receive responses to their invitations. Therefore, hosts can't tell how many guests plan to attend their parties, even if an RSVP is clearly requested. This could mean either one of two things. First it could mean that rudeness is a growing trend in our society. Or, as I would prefer to believe, people no longer understand what the term means. Assuming the best, and that the reason guests don't RSVP to an invitation is a case of ignorance, not rudeness, I will clarify this for the record.

What RSVP Means
The term RSVP comes from the French expression "répondez s'il vous plaît", meaning "please respond". If RSVP is written on an invitation it means the invited guest must tell the host whether or not they plan to attend the party. It does not mean to respond only if you're coming, and it does not mean respond only if you're not coming (the expression "regrets only" is reserved for that instance). It means the host needs a definite head count for the planned event, and needs it by the date specified on the invitation.

Why It's Inconsiderate Not to RSVP
An incomplete list of respondents can cause numerous problems for a host including difficulty in planning food quantities, issues relating to minimum guarantees with catering halls, uncertainty over the number of party favors and difficulties in planning appropriate seating, among other things.
So the next time you see RSVP on an invitation you receive, please call your host and respond promptly.

So what are you waiting for...THANK ME NOW....LOL

jidegirl12: @tim
Why are men so self centred? You come first before your own children?

Not all men are selfish. If u meet a God fearing man, u wil enjoy him and ever be greatful to God..

Family › How A Wife Can Be The Glory Of Her Husband by Timijo(op): 6:54pm On Nov 02, 2012*

As a wife or wife to be, if you want to be the pride and glory of your husband, these points will help you as you practise them.

1. Be organized with cleaning, grocery shopping, laundry and cooking. As you fulfill your God-given responsibilities, your husband is then free to do his work.
2. Save some of your energy every day for him. Don't over work yourself so that you can feed him whenever he is hungry for it.
3. Put him first over the children, your parents, friends, job, religous activities studies, etc.
4. Willingly and cheerfully rearrange your schedule for him when necessary. Don't say you are a career woman. Remember, behind every successful man there is always a virtous woman.
5. Talk about him in a positive light to others. Do not slander him at all, even if what you are saying is true. Do whatever you can to make him look good , to accomplish his goals. Some examples are offer to run errands for him, organize you day to be available to help him with his projects, pray for him and make good suggestions. Give him the freedom not to use our suggestion, and do not be offended if he does not follow it.
6. Think of specific ways that you can help him accomplish goals. Examples are get up early in the mornings to help him get of to work having had a good breakfast and making him lunch, and keep careful records of money spent to keep up with the budget.
7. Be warm and gracious to his family and friends. Make your commitment to him obvious to them. Don't be hostile or rude to anyone of them
8. Do and say things that build him up instead of tearing him down.
9. Dress and apply your makeup in an attractive manner that is pleasing to your husband.
10. When your husband offends you, reprove him privately and gently, always giving him hope and pointing him to the Lord.
11 - As a wife you should never, I MEAN EVER, underestimate the power of your words in regards to how you speak to your husband. You should be his PRIMARY source of encouragement. The words you speak to him and about him in front of others carry more weight than you could EVER imagine.
12 - A woman who attempts to manipulate/control her husband through emotional outbursts, crying and temper tantrums is NOT focused on what is best for the marriage but rather obsessed with getting her way…which always leads to division in the marriage relationship.
(AND…btw… a woman who is emotionally out of control is always out of control in another area of her life…it just usually becomes obvious in her emotions!)
13. ery man wants to know that he can trust his wife . Be trustworthy! It takes a man longer to be open with his heart/feelings…and when heopens up you need to be trusted with that information. If you take what he tells you and use it as a conversation piece with your girlfriends and he finds out it is going to be incredibly difficult for him to trust you in the future.

14 - Your husband cannot read your mind. He cannot understand how you feel. This isn’t a game…it’s marriage. If something is wrong then select the right moment, speak the truth in love and do not attack him when you share what is on your heart. The goal isn’t to win an argument but solve the problem.

15 - How you speak about him in front of your children either sets him up for success or failure as a father. If you constantly tear him down to your kids then they will see him as you see him, have no respect for him and in the future when you need him to help out with explanation or discipline your children will not listen to him because of the foundation of disrespect that you put down.

16 - Your character is the most important quality in your life in regards to what your husband wants/needs the most from you.
17. Spend as much time developing yourself internally as you do in regards to external appearances!.

Lexoria: Angry u're not as man enough as my MAN so ur wife don't/won't praise u?Sorry,its not my fault but urs.

Why are you guys angry with each other? If he did not agree with the points, leave him and focus on your blissful home. Many people forget that marriage and raising family end here on earth. After this world, there is no more room for it again. So, if you don't enjoy your marriage now, when and where else do you want to enjoy it? Absolutely no where. People should learn from others to better their life.

Family › Things A Man Should Do For His Wife All The Time (Part 1) by Timijo(op): 7:22pm On Oct 31, 2012*

This article is for you if you are a guy that is married or are in a very committed relationship with a woman. If you love your girl and want to have a good relationship with her, then here is a list of ten things a man should do for his wife all the time in order to not only promote harmony and happiness but to show her you truly do love her.

1 - Talk to her. One of the things women really want from their men is for him to talk to her. What this means is that she wants meaningful conversion with you. Tell her how you're doing; your hopes and dreams. Tell her what you're thinking about when she's not around. Tell her about what's on your mind, and listen to her when she responds.

2 - Touch her without expecting more. Women like to feel like they are more than a receptacle for your desire. If you want her to know you love her for more than what she can provide, touch her in gentle ways. Rub her back or feet. Caress her cheek. Things like that.

3 - Open doors for her. Show her you not only love her, but cherish her as well by opening the car door for her before getting in yourself. Open the door at home for her too. Help her with her coat when she comes home. Get her chair for her when she sits down for dinner. All those corny things men used to do in movies. Do it and she'll see you mean it when you tell her you love her.

4 - Compliment her. Tell her how nice she looks. Or smells. Tell her what a great job she's done with dinner or in helping you with some errand. Tell her how important she is to you and how your life wouldn't be nearly as sweet were she not there to share it with you. Whenever she's done something well or special, tell her so she'll know you've noticed and appreciate what she's done.

5 - Cook for her. You might be the kind of guy that cooks for her all the time, but you're probably not. So, occasionally cook an entire meal for her while she relaxes in the tub or in another room. Set the table, cook the meal and then clean up afterward. She'll love that.

6 - Tell her you love her. Most people don't tell the people they love often enough how much the other means to them. Break that tradition. If you truly do love her, tell her you love her at least once every single day. More is even better.

7 - Help her. When you marry someone, you're agreeing to be with them through thick and thin. For better or worse. While generally people see that as being there through the hard times, it also means being there and helping with the small things. Like running errands, or reaching for something on the top shelf. Or buying her a stool for when you're not around. It means helping with the cleaning and the maintenance of the home. When you help her, you're making your life a team effort, and this is what builds strong bonds between couples.

8 - Do things with her. Quite often as time passes, couples begin to find more and more things that they like to do individually which leaves less time and energy for doing things together. Keep that from happening by choosing to make doing things together a priority. Go to the grocery store with her, or Christmas shopping. Find things you both enjoy doing for fun and do them. Make your life feel like you're both in it together no matter what is going on.

9 - Let her make her own decisions. A lot of times men have a way of seeing things and come to decide that their way is right and any other wrong. This can result in men taking over a lot of the decision-making that goes on in the home. Fight this. If you make decisions without consulting your wife, you're silently telling her that her opinion doesn't matter to you, which generally leads to a loss of closeness between couples.

10 - Be dependable. Most women have a need to feel like they can count on their men to come through for them when they need it. To ensure that your girl feels this way about you, be dependable in the small things. Be where you say you will be, when you say you will be. And if you say you are going to do something, do it. Don't let things slip away. It's the small things in life that add up to someone being considered dependable.

These ten things a man should do for his wife all the time are tips for men who are either married or in a serious committed relationship with a woman. If you are such a man, and wish to sow the seeds for a happy contented marriage, I hope these things will help you. Good luck.

aribisala0: Ahead in knowledge of another man's language.
Stupidest is a valid word but an Americanism,a relatively recent addition to the accepted lexicon . We too, if must speak English, can and should have our "OWN ENGLISH" .It is quite difficult to express African thought otherwise. I certainly would struggle to translate "

E get as e dey do me"

That statement is not our language but pidgin

E ku ijoko from Yoruba.

The translation is 'sit tight'

Whatever happens we must upgrade our own language for the demands of the 21st century and reject the notion that they are intrinsically unfit and therefore inevitably doomed to extinction

Our three major languages in Nigeria are Yoruba, Hausa and Igbo. So, which one do you want to upgrade?

1. The stupidest thing she has ever done is fighting in the public.
2. He is the stupidest among the three boys.

dabigwalls: Thank you for the correction on sophistication.

What is wrong with "organisation" as spelt?

Cheers

The word "organisation" is the correct spelling in standard British english. This is b'cos Nigerians use the British english as the official language. If it is spelt like this- organization, it is wrong b'cos that is the American english and we are not using American english as our official language b'cos we were not colonised by the Americans. Other words that should have "S" instead of "Z" are specialise, neutralise, analyse, socialisation, colonise and so on.

double08: Thats how you will end up not getting married,what if after marriage you find out the guy cannot have sex what do you do then,cheat on him?

What if after marriage, the guy can make love?

what if you lose him to another lady that readily gave him the sex he craved for and they end up getting married.

That means that the guy did not love the girl but lust her. If he really love her, he wil respect her opinion and wil not dump her for another because of sex.

It is not always by the book,we Africans always make out sex to be one big deal,and we fail to understand what will be will be even if you give him the sex or not. Bottom-line it does not have to always be by the book

Let those that believe that marriage is by the book be and don't impose ur opinion on others.
