mastermaestro:
You want to help him heal? Healer! grin Face your marriage, madam! The only healing he needs now is to focus on his family, while you focus on yours.

Wait, how do singles (male and female) even manage to keep married people this intimately close? It's unhealthy!

Madam, leave him alone for his wife to heal him! angry

I'm sure you aren't married, and judging by your nairaland gender symbol, you are most likely male.
Trust me, someday and in some foreseeable future, you'd find out that being married isn't the ideal fantasyland you dreamt it would be.
Both husband and wife go through phases where a little distraction helps deal with domestic stress and trials.
These convenient distractions are not meant to destroy or weaken the fabrics of your marriage, but rather spicen and ensure the spark remains lit.

Men by their very nature are more disposed to episodes of such distractions. It's basically a coping mechanism.
Married men keeping and actively communicating with single ladies isn't necessarily for sexual benefits. Rather, as men grow older and rack up more years in matrimony, there's rekindled desire to revive youthful zest and its indulgences.
It is a perfectly normal reflex which most men will experience at some point in their lives. You inclusive.

I understand the context of this story slightly differs from my opinion piece. But all the same, I believe there's a lot to learn about marriage and external relationships.

Romance / Re: Girls Who Sleep With Married Men by VivJohn: 3:28pm On Apr 22, 2020
As immoral as it is to sleep with a married man or even woman.. I'd bet you 9 out of 10 times that the OP who appears to be a man would most likely have a girlfriend aka sidechic when he gets married. You never truly know a man's capabilities until he's endowed with all the good things of life such as wealth, material acquisitions, a vibrant family and other bells and whistles that go with the terrain.
'Boys' generally act self-righteous while still coming up in life.. absence of cash keeps them devoted to a single lady but that doesn't mean they do not crave sexual relationships with other ladies - just that they are incapacitated financially to pursue multiple affairs. However, there a few young men who are true monogamists and generally remain faithful to their partners, but trust me, its a very tiny percentage of men. Very very small population!

And on the flipside, whats the assurance of marrying a faithful and devout husband even if a lady does not indulge in bed-hopping with married men?
Its as random as the outcome from a Russian Roulette.

I got one of them through Bsquared. Crossbreeding St Bernard and Caucasian is not a bad one. The outcome is a recognized breed known as MWD(Moscow Watch Dog).

Hmmm.. Crossing two breeds (A & B respectively) who are the principal contributors to another breed (C) does not automatically create a puppy conformant to breed C's technical specifications.
This was a topic of much heated debate in a Caucasian whatsapp group I belong to. I think the science of breed creation goes beyond just mating separate breeds in the hopes of creating a new one. There are DNA profiling, genotypic and phenotypic considerations etc.
What gender are your saints?
I just groomed my Caucasian shepherds this weekend, 3 dogs @ a combined price of 9k (3k per dog).
But the groomer does an excellent job though.

They are very sensitive to their environment and they are good at creating awareness of any looming danger. They can be easily trained to acquire other skills.
Another reason I love them is the way they bond with my other dogs. They don't contest the "alpha race". They love to play with other dogs by jumping on them. Smaller breeds always shy away from their rough play though.

Oh! I see.. Thanks for the info. You know what they say "experience is the best teacher".
I'm aware of two breeders in Jos who do St. Bs namely Bsquarekennels and PSK too.
To be candid, I've perpetually held myself back from acquiring this awesome breed owing to my greatest concern i.e. avoiding undesirable crossbreeding between my pack of Caucasian shepherds and the St. B.
Heat periods can be quite tricky and if u aren't on top of your game such "disasters" may occur.
How have u been able to address this phenomenon?
Pets / Re: The Saint Benard's Family by VivJohn: 9:14am On Jul 09, 2017
So beautiful.. The first pic is infinitely adorable. I love St. Bs. But from ur experience, do they make reliable guard dogs when compared to gsds, rotts, Boerboels and Caucasian ovtcharka?

Yeah! I did read the entire write-up and it was masterfully crafted in easy to understand vocabulary. OP writes quite well.
However on second thought, brevity would probably suffice for advert purposes in the future. Readers prefer more graphics and less talk (if u catch my drift).
@OP, what about the parents' pix?

Bros or Babe (which ever you are)... I just want to say.. YOU ARE TOO MUCH!!!.
You've taken pet advertisement/marketing to a whole new realm.
As a matter of policy, i only keep Caucasian Shepherds.. but these Boerboels look so premium that i'm strongly inclined to reconsider my CO only policy.
But do you have equally pedigree black females?
One more thing, Are you a backyard breeder (no pun intended) or do you own and operate a full-fledged dog farm/kennel?
Cause i feel most people do dog breeding as a secondary source of income and probably have other vocations they are into.

Pets / Re: Advise For Someone Who Wish To Go Into Dog Breeding Business. by VivJohn: 6:21am On Jun 07, 2017
Yes @princetobi kindly shed more light on the nonprofitability bit. I honestly feel the economy has forced pet enthusiasts to repriotize wants and needs. There's a high supply of pups/dogs and the pricing is just not as attractive as it once was. Only established breeders e.g Tox kennel jos still manage to sell at very decent prices and this is purely due to their vast network of clients. My top 4 ingredients for success:
1. Passion and love
2. Quality Breeding stock and the right ethics too
3. Get yourself into the right Whatsapp dog breeders groups (trust me.. U really need this for networking and education)
4. Doggedness and a never-give-up spirit. Sales & marketing isn't as easy as u think.
Pets / Re: How To Differentiate Between A Breeder And Marketer by VivJohn: 3:35am On Jun 03, 2017
In the context of this discussion one notable breeder marketer comes to mind angry .
He has succeeded in putting up a resounding deceit campaign over the years posing as a breeder of a broad spectrum of dog breeds.
Churning out puppy/dog adverts with frenzied momentum and always ascribing them to his kennel making me wonder how a solitary kennel can be that productive.
For a regrettable moment, even I fell victim to this individual's antics and true to the OP's assertions a day came when I sought the truth of my puppy's parentage but all I got was a barrage of false information which spurred me to conduct personal investigation until I unveiled the actual truth. Trust me.. The truth was distasteful to say the least. However the deal had been sealed already so yours faithfully is now being compelled to make the best of the situation after doling out a substantial amount for a pedigree pup. But as the saying goes no need crying over spilt milk... just have to man up and move on.

Lies from the pit of hell. God designed marriage to be beautiful and people have been enjoying beautiful marriages devoid of unfaithfulness. Stop coming here to tell us what you have planned to do in your own marriage OP. I will not cheat on my wife and every cheat is hell bound.
Just shut up if you don't have worthy examples of marriage to give us.

Go and find a real godly marriage where Christ is at the center and bring for case study.

My parents are 35years in marriage and not one day of scandal or suspicion.

Go and find the Bible model and follow.

There is no excuse for unfaithfulness in marriage.

There are guys who stay faithful to themselves eyt have no girlfriend nor married. So this OP is talking from the point that probably she is heart broken and accepted her faith and a truth that men will always cheat. But that's a fat lie from the pit of hell. Every rlship has their challenges and every challenge is meant to be overcome and conquered.
For the guys out there, if you ever want to be faithful, do not stay faithful because you have a wife or a gf out there, stay faithful because you are a good person and cheating is not in your personality.
There are a lot to say, but lemme pause here...

You must be a good boy. Thumbs up bro!

I know what I m talking about. It has nothing to do with money. Infact ladies tagged them boring. You don't normally see ladies around them. They have few or no female friends
So the obvious question that begs.. Would a lady prefer being with a faithfully "boring" social misfit or be with a socially balanced guy regardless of whether he would cheat on her or not? Go figure.
I won't answer on behalf of the ladies. But I guess u do get the general consensus on this one.

From ur moniker it shows ur still single (miss) cool cool
Life is funny. I believe I'm older and more experienced. Have seen some pretty bizarre things in my time. Ur right. It's quite lethal for a lady to enter marriage with the mindset that her spouse would cheat on her somewhere down the line. I think u should desist from reading such posts and articles cause u may develop a very sour taste for matrimony going at ur pace.

Ol' boy!!! This post is full of hypocrites and self righteous people (especially those males running there mouths that they would/cannot cheat on their present or future spouses). Most don't even have experience concerning regular boyfriend-girlfriend relationship not to talk of marriage. Boys and girls.. Hear this and listen with rapt attention. Marriage isn't all about the lovey-dovey butterfly-in-your-stomach type feeling u get when u think ur in love. It's a practical school with no real tangible graduation date.
OP knows what she's talking about.. And it shouldn't be misconstrued as a sign of weakness or stupidity. It's just plain fact. Men do a bunch of stuff and get away with it.. Women try same things and get a battering from society. We didn't make things this way, we all just met it and have to deal with. For those women (girls) who can't deal with a cheating man.. 2 possible way out. 1st, cheat back but make sure to do it codedly cause if caught u know what's up. 2ndly, just take a walk if u can't deal with it.
Don't mind these men (or boys) running their mouth that they can't or won't cheat on their present or future spouses. All na lie. No mind them jare.
