MrBachelor:
Really? Didn't know marriages and relationships are games,too.

Now you know bro, so, invariably, you got the fear of games

MrBachelor:
Not fear of playing game bro. Fear of getting married,being in a relationship.

MrBachelor:
Your comment is not clear. Please,clarify.

Katier00:
what do you want to know again?

MrBachelor:
Firstly,you were not the subject of my comment. The young man whom I was trying to teach some social etiquettes made it clear my lecture was not welcomed and I respected that.

Secondly,I find it disrespectful that you called me your boy. I politely ask that you take that back.

Katier00:
?

Katier00:
be happy my guy and don't shut your heart, you will find a lady that will love, respect and appreciate you sooner enough. Let go of those bad memories and be happy. Cheers

Katier00:
lol this is funny. Next time dear try to date your mind alike, your social equal or even higher. Those that can never leave you the way they met you. If there is anything I learnt from my ex is that perseverance is the key to success and I have keyed in to that

Katier00:
why? You don't need to pay to be a nairalander. This is the largest Nigerian forum.

yea, I know. But the girl just naturally don't have passion for what or places where people seem to interact intelligently... All she knows is look celebrity gossip, watch useless z world. She can never be found where people interact better things.

Imagine person finish university without knowing how the school library looked like. One day I followed her to school to help her clear some issues she accumulated as a result of ill health, we passed through the school library and I intentionally asked "babe, how many times have you accessed this library? She replied " why should I use the library when I have my room" I said chisos are u kidding me? My younger bro is here, he a 4 pointer and he is always in the library
And then I said to myself, see this girl wey barely get 1.9 day talk.mhen I weak all over..

Myself was among the best in school, but I do library. so who talking here? My dear, I weak, I just give up.

Jesusloveyou:
Terrorist Shekau is dead, and
Terrorist nnamdi kanu is dead.
If they are both alive, I challenge both of them to show face before October 1st. this is the first time the terrorist mother is granting interview and condemning his terrorist son.

But the jobless aggressive lazy idiotic pigs of biafra terrorist parents was supporting their terrorist son to bring down the country in 2mins.
And to bring 2m jobless aggressive lazy idiotic pigs of biafra to Abuja to take over ask rock.

Mine is June 2

Don't come and be hyping nairalanders... Me and you know say na wash I'm 12th may for reference purposes.. If you are dark skinned babe.. Don't mention me

ElsonMorali:
Nah. You just showing the ex that you are weak and can't do without her.

Those aren't manly qualities. Once an ex, always an ex.

Consign the memories into the dustbin of history. That's the only time you'll be able to move on and find love elsewhere.

Unless of course you broke her heart and you're trying to worm your way back into her good graces.

Then letter writing is permitted.

ElsonMorali:
I'm not a "nigga"

And the question was directed at the op and every other person who is contemplating such.

Yo, u mean u ain't a nigga? Oh cool... I'm th OP.... Contemplated and carried out.. It's fun right? Or don't you find it thus?

ElsonMorali:
Why would you wanna write a letter to your ex in the first place? So that she can take pleasure in knowing that you're still thinking about her?

Fvck NO!

ATFmedia:
I miss u, please come back.

FatherJP:
To the "exes", the one that behaved like a dicck, i still want us back but you must change and start behaving well like a humble something. To the ones that got married, well let us always cherish our memories.
