Family / Re: Nigeria: After 31 Years Of Marriage, 56-year- Old Woman Gives Birth To Twins. by Tinkybabe(f): 10:18am On Oct 13, 2013
Great!Amazing testimony!Thank God for them

On another note,if the babies were triplets they would have been named

Family / Re: My Mother Wants To Take My Son... by Tinkybabe(f): 9:14am On Oct 13, 2013
Haba CC,your dismissal of this story as a fiction is quite surprising cause these things do happen.BTW her mum says "aunty is back" to her child not the other way round and the baby is yet to speak in fact.

You have to relieve your mum of that position and find an alternative.Be tactful about it since you said you do not want to hurt her.
Though I would say she's overstepping her bounds and that shouldn't be condoned.

Quick question op,is your friend an only child?if not,does she have male siblings and is her baby a boy and the first granchild?
I would expect this action from a mother-inlaw than a mother ,but well..

Nairaland / General / Re: Zodiac Traits do they really reflect in your character by Tinkybabe(f): 8:21am On Oct 13, 2013
Aggrippa: hey miss don't conclude just yet! these zodiacal signs and attributes are the results of centuries of intense critical research.


Oh really?And this intense research is based on what?
People born in particular months exhibit peculiar traits?
When are these traits formed in a person;calculation from conception through birth or just birthdate?
For instance if a person is delivered later or earlier than their EDD which puts them in a different zodiac month,do they show zodaic attributes of their expected delivery date or their birthdate?

Until you can give a satisfactory explanation,it remains a scientific fiction to me.
Nairaland / General / Re: Zodiac Traits do they really reflect in your character by Tinkybabe(f): 10:16pm On Oct 12, 2013
These zodiac signs and attributes are just mere coincidences and pseudo-beliefs.I mean, all the attributes are positive so people would obviously want to relate with them.

We are in actual fact a product of our environment.

jumbotron: I have found that you can not have these discussions in a room with SOME African men. I look forward to when we all can talk about this without y'all asking questions like "If women are so XYZ, why are they not in the BH sect"? Or coming back with retorts like "Its a Man's World".

Sisters, keep doing it for yourselves. Work hard, keep taking care of your families. Women do not blow their trumpets about their hustles, they just...hustle. If you are blessed to have reasonable brothers, enlighten them on how to treat women. Shout out to the men in my family!! When you raise boys, teach them to be self sufficient as well. Our mothers are at fault for some of these comments. If you are married, the man is the head of the household but he is not the slave master. Get your education and be about something. Better yet, marry a man who will train his sons and daughters to be self sufficient as well. Meet men who are comfortable in their masculinity and their place as a man to allow a woman climb the ladder and assert herself. Too many of these comments reek of bruised egos.

Guys, no one can take away the fact that you are a man. Stop making it seem like we are challenging your masculinity. We get it, there is no competition. Just learn to share. Times have changed. The quicker you get hip to this, the better for you.

C'est fini!
Having arguments on this topic with some men is futile cause they'll never reason it out with you even if the truth is there staring them in the face.
Education / Re: Patience Jonathan Honoured With Doctorate Degree In South Korea by Tinkybabe(f): 9:00pm On Oct 12, 2013
OK!I want to get something straight
This woman is being honoured outside her country while her country people do nothing but criticize her.

So why the discrepancy?Are we failing to see something or are those countries failing to see something or does she prefer to effect change outside the shores of her country?

Abeg help a wondering mind out cheesy

IfeomaVanessa:
If she tells Yemi, it doesn't change what happened in the past. Yemi will probably dump her and hate his father more. Sometimes, the truth should be withheld.

I don't think Yemi would dump her. He sure would be infuriated but he would realise it's no fault of hers.He would probably take a break from her for some days to reflect.He would then realise how empty he is without her and call her back.

As for his father,he would detest him so much that he could scheme murdering him.

Glowingscenes!you are an amazing writer,I must confess.The turns, twists and suspense you give the story is intriguing..You are the bomb!

jay bee: I think most of the people here have already adviced you accordingly on the best approach to take concerning the matter at hand.

Here is how I would advice you go about it
Sit him down and make him understand in a firm/concise manner how the current situation has to stop and how he has to accept your non negotiable proposal on immediate/medium term.

Immediate Plan
Retrive your ATM cards from him – You are not his slave but his wife
Open a joint account – This is necessary so you can tightly control your expenses. All bills should be paid from this account
Do up a monthly expense analysis – If he has absolutely no income then be prepared to pay for all the essentials (accommodation, food) for an agreed period. I will suggest 6 months or thereabout.
Agree an interim monthly upkeep – As an example, if you are left with 50K after all expense has been taken care of, give him 10% of that and save the rest.


Medium term
You expect him to have an income within 3-6 months
Withdraw the monetary upkeep support you give him within 3-6 months
Reduce your monetary contribution to the upkeep of the family in stages (You can do a gradual 5-10% incremental withdrawal up until he is able to shoulder the majority )


All the best

The emboldened..Joint account for what?after the access he has to her personal account she should then open a joint account making him a signatory to the account..Mba nu!

OP,your siblings are right,you definitely spoilt this man..Kai!I'm so gutted for you..He is just an irresponsible man who has decided to be a leech..I know it's not in my place to call your husband names but,I mean,this is the height of irresponsibility angry

You need to apply tough love like someone said,does he even realise he's a family man at all?Living off his wife?
I don't know how you intend going about it but you need to withdraw all the stipends you give him..Stop indulging him if you want the best for him and your family..

What nonsense..I'm angry sha angry

Family / Re: Why Do Married Couples Look Alike With Time. by Tinkybabe(f): 9:23am On Oct 11, 2013
^^Yes!
This is how it works;agreed that people marry people they look like initially.The increased resemblance we see isn't rooted in their genetics or exchange of genetic materials.It is because they have through the years learnt to do the same thing,look the same way,frown the same way,pose for pictures with the same or similar facial expressions.

When we see these similarities in their facial expressions ,our brain process it into genetic resemblance but it is infact a perceived resemblance.
That's what I mean by psychology turning our heads.

Family / Re: Should She Ask For Flight Ticket? by Tinkybabe(f): 9:09pm On Oct 10, 2013
The guy should foot the bill or shey na ticket money.
I don't even expect the lady to ask before he gives.
He invited her so he should be ready to shoulder the responsibility,the lady could chip in if he's not bouyant enough but it's not for her to drop the whole money unless she really wants to.

An entirely different case if the guy has been making trips to Nigeria.
