RomanceRe: Have I Cheated On My Husband? by weslay:
Preciousgirl:
It's hard for me but I will confess here. My colleague of course male colleague playfully held my waist at the workplace and I got aroused. I have never had feelings for him though. I was a little wet. Have I cheated? Should I confess this to my husband? What really happened since I don't have feelings for the guy? Could that me juju at work?
The fact that a male colleague will grope you-a married woman, shows that you have a problem setting boundaries.

I see this happen every day in my office and just feel sad for the husbands. Because most women today don't have self awareness, they accept anything. You see them laughing sheepishly instead of confronting the male colleague.

The driver just added more problems on himself for running away. Your car with registerd number is left on the scene. Its a piece of cake tracing and locating him within 24 hours. Where does he think he will run to without being caught.
He messed up big time.
He is likely in custody already. He would claim he left the scene due to fear of jungle justice

FamilyRe: Help! My Neighbors And Relations Are Taking Undue Advantage Of My Generosity by weslay: 10:41pm On Jul 23, 2025
Leep:
Brethren, I'm lost here. How do I handle this without creating any atom of conflict?

I've been living in this neighborhood for almost five years. As a young man still struggling, I understand what people, especially the married ones with children, go through, when you consider the economy of Nigeria and the poor income.

I'm an introvert. I appear very shy but I'm not, in fact. I don't just believe in talking too much, especially unnecessarily. I'm gentle and seemingly soft. I want to see people happy even if it's at my own detriment. I'm incurably and incredibly Generous to people and it's really affecting me. I'm too softhearted.
In my neighborhood, I have little children I always buy things for. Almost everyday, I'm buying something for a child or children around my vicinity. Coke, biscuits and sometimes clothes. Same goes to their parents who are largely unschooled, I give them money and buy them malt. Thing is, once I do for one person privately, the person goes to tell another, and they keep coming. The cycle just continues like that. There's a particular widow who is a farmer with five children, I assist her with little money almost every week. I do this because my spirit asked me to do so, not because the widow asked me. I have in my own little way assisted almost everyone around here, not because I have, but because that's who I am. I am not doing so to please anyone or get praised.
I'm not married, I don't even have a good job, I live in a room self-con and sometimes struggle to feed.
The issue now is, whenever these children see me, they now see me as their father Christmas. Once they spot me, it's how they can take money off me that they are concerned about. Now let's agree they are children and know nothing much about life. Now how about their parents(Mothers)?. These women can beg for Africa. I've been turned into a fool(according to them). If they come across me in a provision shop trying to buy a sachet of pure water for myself, they will come and meet me to buy something for them. This happens all the time. At first, I used to think they were joking. But no they aren't joking.
I have a woman neighbor who had just put to bed three months ago. She sells pure water and minerals right in her house. When she gave birth, I went to greet her, gave the baby some money. Then after two weeks, I saw her again, I jokingly said I would get the baby Hollandia yoghurt, the next day, I gave her a thousand naira for the baby to buy the Hollandia yoghurt but to my dismay, she collected it and said that the money wasn't enough for the yoghurt and I added a thousand five hundred naira- of course, I know the baby doesn't drink yoghurt. At least not now. This is a woman that I buy her drinks and water everyday, I buy for her children and even give them money. I pay her over three thousand for drinks and water every week. Again, I saw her carrying her baby in the sun 🌞, I met her on the road and asked why she wasn't Carrying an umbrella, but she said she didn't have. She now said, "Abi u get umbrella for house make I come carry am dey use" ?. In my mind, I said, no vex o.. na me find trouble. Just yesterday, while I went to pay her for drinks and water her children and a few other children consumed, immediately I approached her house and asked one of the children about his mum, the woman overhead me even before coming out to attend to me, she now asked if I came with Bread. " Hope u bring bread for us"? I asked her which Bread, with which money?. Once her children hear my voice, the six of them would come outside to wait for me so I can share money to them.
If I go out to buy something in a nylon, they want to know what is in the nylon. If I'm going out, they will tell me not to forget them o. All these are getting me really irritated. I'm someone who can not be predicted. My anger isn't good and if I'm pushed to the wall, I can react in manner that even me would end up regretting why I reacted in such manner.
The troubling part is, these are not people that have ever helped me in any way. They can't even help. There was a day I took a bike to my house and discovered I wasn't having anything in my wallet, and it was very late. I couldn't go out again to use the POS, so I collected three hundred naira from one of the women who benefits from me and paid the bike-man. Do you know that, before I woke up the next morning, same woman had sent her son to knock on my door to get her money back?. There are times I can't even afford pure water to drink, and I can't run to such people for help. I'm really worried because I've been taken advantage of. It's really very embarrassing and insulting to me right now.
We should be able to help one another. That's my philosophy about life, but it seems being nice to some certain persons is now a big problem. The day you stop, you become an enemy. My issue is, I hardly say no to their incessant and unnecessary requests.
Same thing goes to my family, I don't have parents or siblings. But my cousins won't let me rest. Once they try to chat you up on the social media, just know that they are about to make financial demands on you. If they call and you don't pick, they complain too. I'm tired. Should I change my line and social media accounts? I don't think so.

You fear rejection and confrontation. There are unresolved issues in your childhood that is at play here.

Remember that song from Mayokun
"No let dem see you finish
Dem go finish your biscuit
Dem go finish your sweet
Shakara don end oh."

Learn to say No. Sometimes, just for the fun of it.

Instincts will decide. I once had such an experience. One night watching late night movie, My twin baby brothers were sleeping on the in the sitting room floor when I heard some weird sound, turned to check and saw a big black snake, not as big as the one in the photo. Instincts kicked in, I grabbed the twins in both hands to one of the rooms. Informed my brother who was sleeping inside. We came back with any object we could lay our hands on.

Few minutes later, we found it and killed it. It had issues moving on tiles that how we could kill it easily.

Peakdesign23:
When I say that these celebrities are irrelevant to me, their so called fans will start attacking me.

We're just here only for a short while, one day our stories it will be history to another set of generations to come.

These celebrities even make things worse and the younger generation sees them as mentor.

They're all competing amongst themselves and it's quite obvious. If they can all come together and build something tangible like a factory or a company for the less privileged it won't cause any harm.

But it's their money, their life, their choice of lifestyle and E no concern me.
Nigerians are too entitled. Build company how? They are musicians. It's not their job to build companies to employ Nigerians. If they choose to help Nigerians, fine. if they don't, it doesn't make them useless. VDM should chill

SportsRe: Sabinus Visits Osimhen In His Lagos Mansion, Marvels At Footballer’s ₦369M Car by weslay:
thesicilian:
369m for a single car. Even many bullet proof cars are far less expensive than that. If you ask what particular feature about the car makes it that expensive now, no body can say.
The Naira is the issue here. Just divide the price of the car by 4, you will get an idea of the worth of the car before several bad policies happened to the naira.

Nigeria government are just clueless. Always putting the cart before the horse. The policies ain't bad by themselves, but its implementation without proper alignment to a defined objective results in catastrophic economic realities. Just like how PMB banned food importation but refused to address the issues in the local agricultural value chain. The result food prices soared and the policies had to be pushed aside, the import ban relaxed and we were back to where we started.

All the policies by PBAT will fail to achieve the desired effect if we don't take the initial steps to industrialize.
First the issues in the Power generation and supply needs to be addressed. Secondly, address issue in the steel generation value chain. Then address human resources and technical skill development.

After making strides in these areas before such policies can be rolled out. But this things takes time and government changes every four years. So before the policies begins to show the desired results the new government scraps it and introduce their own and the cycle continues...
