Get the job and skills from the same place and in the same way you're expecting the husband/boyfriend to get.

Ask for the money from your father and family, your boyfriend didn't ask you for money to eat and learn a skill.

Let the boyfriends breeet!
I would not even mind helping a girlfriend pay to get a job or acquire a skill. That's shows a serious girl with sound values of trying to improve herself. The ones I can't stand are those that believes relationships are poverty alleviation scheme or an MMM investment scheme. The feel they only thing of value they have and can ever have is their canal.

Rise of penìs is not correlated with raising or catering for a family. It rises according to its own according to the dictates of biology. 99% of sexual activities have nothing to do with raising a family.

That girl is the exception not the rule. Where do you think our girls are picking up this entitlement mentality. From US videos. Also, did you hear what the fat idiot was saying in that video. How can someone as fat as that with stinky stretch marks be talking about her standards and specs? This world haff spoil finish
The girl is not the exception to the rule in the US. Maybe exception among black Americans as black Americans girls have the same entitlement mentality as Nigerians girls, but among the whites and other demographics, that's the unspoken rule. Each person on a date pays his or her own fare, except it was agreed in the beginning that only one person will be responsible for the bills.
For you information, the lady in question was half caste - half Nigerian and half white.

I concur with the statement that "How can someone as fat as that with stinky stretch marks be talking about her standards and specs". Did you listen to the specs and standards she listed? Does she think she is Miss Universe to be able to land such a man based solely on her looks? She looks presentable now because of her young age and excessive make up. 10 years from now, given her shape and looks, she will look like spongebob. After dropping 1 or 2 children, she will look like Patrick.
Women are like flowers, they bloom for a relatively short period and fade very fast. It's best to attract bees in the bloom period, because during the fading period, attracting bees for pollination will be very difficult.

My take:
1. A lack of good job will definitely put you out of the dating selection pool

2. Women worldwide knows that he who pays the piper dictate the tunes. if you're or bucks'ed up, forget about chasing the box. grin

3. If as a man for any reason u earn less than ur dating partner, she will start looking for someone who earns more

4. If at the beginning u were earning more and somehow by twist of faith she begins to earn more, same rule applies, u will still loose ur spot in her life.

5. Women these days have equated submissiveness with u having to provide. know this and know peace.

6. Women are the same worldwide! If u think u will leave one because of the above reasons, I can tell u for free that u are a joker
You are still living in the 18th century, where women roles were in the kitchen, Bedroom and laundry room . Even in Conservative Muslim societies, that mentality only applies to the poor helpless masses, the elites empower their daughters with good education and good jobs.

In the 21st century, women have the same opportunities that men have. Women have been presidents/prime ministers of other nations, C.E.Os of multinational cooperations and captains of industries. Its only Nigerian women that have such entitlement mentality, you would think they are physically and mentally disabled.

I dated a US based girl in my youth, I took her to double 4 on Awolowo Road, Ikoyi. When the bill came she offered to pay her own bill, she said that's how it's done in the US. I refused and paid both our bills. She was extremely grateful to me for paying her own part of the bill. A typical ungrateful Nigerian girl would even insult you on top.

All these ladies with specs, See their mouth, " my specs are tall, handsome, rich, has a nice job, Christian, God fearing, etc. How many such men do they think is available in Nigeria and even the whole world? Very soon they will be like Nigerian girls in Europe who are the ones that pay for the guys transport to come to their house, cook for them, nack them well and pay their transport back him.

Watch the lamentations of a nigerian girl in Germany below;

Imagine a girl that her father cannot afford to spend N30k on her and cannot earn N30k will demand a guy spend 300k on a first date.

Many of these girls will enter menopause without having a serious boyfriend not to talk of a husband.

lexylaw40:
I don't want to use bad words but what are you really complaining about, ok fine federal contribution but during those times Nigerian economy is mainly based on wealth we got from exporting cocoa and also palm oil, all from the western region of Nigeria, you have to understand that the western region is from kwara to Benin ( Bendel state) down to Itshekiri ( delta state) is the real southwest so most of the nations resources was coming from the western part of the country before we discovered oil. ...that's just what I'm saying bro
Use bad word? Why? You made a claim that Lagos was built by the Yorubas with the hard earned money from their cocoa farms. You pasted pictures of structures in Lagos Island to support your assertion. I bursted your lie bubble by educating you that Lagos (particularly Lagos Island) was indeed built by the British Colonial Government and all the structures you posted was not built by Awolowo, but by the British, and you started threatening bad words.

Furthermore Apapa Ports was built by the British Colonial Government in 1919 and Tincan Island Ports was was built by the Obasanjo administration in 1977. Awolowo or the Western Nigerian government did not build any sea port in Lagos.

The Lagos Airport later renamed Murtala Mohammed Airport in 1979 was initially built in 1947 during World War II by the British Colonial Government.

I honestly don't know the sea port and airport Awolowo built in Lagos with cocoa money.

Lagos was built by the Yorubas with the hard earned money from their cocoa farms. The airport and the sea port you are using in lagos today was built by Awolowo with money from cocoa. Yorubas never needed oil money to progress. And we still remain the envy of other nations for a lot of good reasons.

O hun ta ni lan gbe laruge
I don’t know who the loudest chest beater us between IPOB and Yoruba tribalists, it would be a very close match. Both are always making stupendous claims of greatness. Lagos Island that was never under the Regional Western government was the one Awolowo built with cocoa money? Lagos Island all the way Akpongbon to Tafawa Balewa Square to Ikoyi and Victoria Island was seat of the colonial government from 1914, when Southern and Northern Nigeria was almalgated till 1991 when the capital was noted to Abuja.

See Carter Bridge that was built in 1901(first picture). Awolowo must have travelled back in time to build it as Awolowo was born 1906.

Second picture is Victoria Island as of 1929

Third picture is Lagos Island in 1935.

Yea! Sure, it's about humanity. Please, do NOT lie to or deceive yourself! We are NOT comparing ourselves to NO terrorists because we are NOT! NO place on earth has civil disobedience and or self-defense been classified as a CRIMINAL act. I am just saying that you folks need to be more concerned about terrorism in your backyards than worrying about st-at-home. You are the ones making the comparisons and we do NOT care.

It's about our humanity, people naturally feel concern when a people decide to slaughter each other in the name of politics. We have been concerned about Fulani terrorists for over 10 years, we are also concerned about Kanuri terrorists that had terrorised their people for more than 15 years. Naturally we should be concern about igbo terrorists slaughtering women and children in the name of Biafra.

Besides, I don't understand why you guys have now started comparing yourselves to Fulani terrorists. Are you guys now admiting that you are in the same league with them?

The attached image is the major reason why the sit-at-home currently going on in the Southeast geopolitical zone is not impacting the national economy and is only destroying their regional economy.

Here we go again with this addlepated he-goat. This M0R0N needs to be more worried about his own pathetic life than worrying about the Igbo-speaking Biafrans. All the talking heads and their allies in the media have all been pontificating about the sit-at-home and its impact on the economy of the East. If they honestly believe that the sit-at-home has no negative effect on the economy of Nigeria writ large, why are they more concerned and worried? It's NOT as if they care about or love the Igbos. Just recently, we saw a group of Yorubas in Lagos protesting at the Finnish Embassy against Simon Ekpa because of the sit-at-home. What an irony. These are the same people that ordered the Igbos and other Biafrans to leave Lagos and now they just discovered a new affinity and love for them. So, all I am saying is that all these dido-heads should mind their own damn business and let us deal with our issue the best way we see fit. I am sure all the others have more things in their own backyard to worry about than meddling in our own affairs.
Believe me the sit at home has no bearing on the Nigerian economic. If it did, the government would have sent 3 battalions to confront the terrorists. If this was the Niger delta, the government would either have conceded to the demands of the agitators or use brutal force not minding collateral damage.

People care for the igbos killing each other the same way they care for the Rohingya people of Myanmar or the Ukrainians in the on going war. Its part of human sympathy. People with conscience are sad at seeing men, women and children being slaughtered needlessly.

The people that ordered igbos to leave Lagos for political reasons though condemnable is not the same thing as murder. They did not murder women and children as you guys are doing.

False. If there was sit at home in Lagos for one week, the Nigerian economy will crumble. Most imports including petrol comes in through Lagos ports. Most companies including multinational cooperations are headquartered in Lagos.

Remember 1993 when Frank Kokori shut down Lagos and in effect Nigeria with its petroleum distribution through PENGASSAN. The country's economy was completely shut down.

A resounding YES. In 1980 when our population was around 60million, we were producing our own food, clothes, shoes, fuel and even cars. We did not need to import much items from abroad. That was why N1 was equal to $2 then, because no one needed dollars to import anything. But today, we cannot even produce enough food to feed ourselves, we need dollars to import paper, toothpick, rice and petrol.

Tunechi5:
honestly ,dont think population is our problem ,what nigeria needs is a good leader, more population more manpower, US is prime example ,other than population what do they have?
Population is our number one problem. How do you expect the same standard of living as 1980 when our population has quadrupled but with the same (or even less) income - oil revenues. Its like a man with 3 kids on a salary of 100k now trying to raise 12 kids on the same N100k. Obviously, his
family's poverty level will increase.

We will continue getting poorer and poorer until we start controlling our population. And one of the factors against effective population control is religion. The Muslim and Christian religions with accounts for 90% of the population are against birth control, abortion and sex education, which are the most effective tools against population explosion.

The US example is a very poor example. First the US population increase is not due to increased birth rate but to increased immigration. In recent times the US has been putting policies in place to reduce immigration and thus control population.

The US has far more landmass and resources than nigeria. US land mass is over 4 times that of Nigeria and its oil production also more than 4 times, not even talking about its level of industrialisation and development.

Kanu is even lucky, despotic governments are known for simply killing their opponents, most dont bother with the stress of imprisonment and courts. Alexei Navalny has been a political prisoner for about 10 years now, he barely escaped assassination by Putin, he never for once asked his millions of supporters to go on a rampage killing other Russians to force Putin to release him

Nah u won't because u is a hypocrite somebody na abi no be so?
So because Government is not releasing Kanu, that is a justification for killing Igbo Men, Women and Children? So any political prisoner held by Government should instruct his followers to start killing the very people he purports to be fighting for? Any you think killing fellow igbo brothers would move the FG to release Kanu? Maybe Mandela should have adopted such tactics, it would have saved the white apartheid government from wasting bullets.

To me Ifeanyi Uba loves igbos more than Kanu or his IPOB followers. At least he is pained to see fellow igbos being killed or their properties and business destroyed.

They should just cancel the result and allow her to sit for the exams next year. Banning her three years would definitely destroy her academic ambitions. Punishment are ment to reform and not destroy a person. The shame to her and her family is enough punishment. The girl still has a promising future if she has truly leant her lesson.

I am more angry at the usual suspects who use every small incident to denigrate Nigeria and all her institutions and then play the victim. They don't even wait for any investigation before bringing in tribal and ethnic sentiments. It was obvious from the beginning that the results were fake and produced at a cheap cyber cafe.
