There's nothing more attractive than intelligence and ambition. An individual who has no vision and no set goals is just as aimless as a next lazy person - which is fine if that's what you're about. You can lack the ambition to keep yourself fed and the universe will continue to spin around as usual. We all search for traits important to us in a life partner. It's nothing new. 1 Like |

TV01: ...sup' Nash,I was waiting for someone to use that word - Hypergamy. It is the definitive answer to all things female, and once a man understands this, his life is much easier. Also this issue of revenge, comeuppance e.t.c. is so 60s lol. I learned early that life gives no quarters, and none should be asked. That biotch Karma, she died. |

A man who accept Christ as his personal lord and Savior A man who see problem and take it as challenges A man who family,friend,parent,wife,children will mock on every aspect and tell the the way u are seeing it is different from the way am seeing it. A man who dwell in the house and abide to his commandment. |

ihedinobi2: No need going back and forth on this. Did you read the part where I said, I did most of the calling? See, he/you can spend a lifetime justifying in actions and inactions. Afterall, every human action, good or bad is justifiable. I have helped a lot of friends in the past follow their dreams, set priorities right and all that. The little we stayed together, he could even testify to how much value I was able to add to his life. However, I cannot trust him enough with my future. Of course "falling" is expected in life's venture. I'm not afraid of falling but I'm afraid of anyone who will not rise. I can only be with the someone I trust that if he falls, I am confident he knows what to do to get back to his feet. Otherwise, I'm so sorry. BTW, thanks for your special interest in me. You may sheath your sword now. 1 Like |

YourCoffin: Here in Niaja, how potential a guy is, is closely tied to the number of digits in his bank statement. If a guy has more than ten million written on it, he has an overdose of potential. It doesn't matter what he did or doing or didn't do to get the money or if the money is actually his. I'm sure that if your friend had shown the lady a bank statement with ten million written on it, she would have given birth to their third child by now .LMAO! |

Potential as we all know is relative and it’s almost impossible to arrive at an acceptable baseline to be used when determining if a love prospect is what the effort First and foremost, we need to understand us human beings are diverse with diverse needs. Needs and/or wants are two important aspect of relationships which are relatively dynamic and of course expected to change throughout the development phase. Potential is not always going to transform into expected results so why then should people plan their lives around potentials when there is absolutely no guarantee that the expected result will ever be achieved. Young adults going into relationships ought to be defining and discussing what’s important to them before embarking on such journeys. Potentials being broad should be divided into key manageable attributes such as: Integrity Hardworking Religious Intelligent Supportive Mature that can then be easily measured at any given time Lastly, marriage/relationship is a collective responsibility of the 2 people involved. 2 Likes 1 Share |

flyca:Er, I didn't think we were fighting just now. I just thought your questions were a good opportunity to study some nagging assumptions and suppositions about the whole matter. Anyway, thanks for your time as well. For the record though, offering advice and guidance and opinion are not even remotely the same as putting your faith in a man, that is, in one way of speaking, bending your back to the job at hand. Any spectator can offer good advice. But only your teammate really supports you. Your fans may share some of the embarrassment, some of the glory and whatnot, but your teammates are the ones who did it all with you, who kept you fighting when you grew so weary and hopeless that you would have just laid down your sword and had it over with. They're the ones that really count. Because advice and applause go only so far. And you do have a strong point about the establishment of a track record. History does a lot of good things for people who are dealing with life. But, as with everything else, history also does hold people down. People have failed to recover from their falls because the shock of change was too great. There are also cases where the environment changed so much that starting over requires throwing history away and looking at everything with fresh eyes - which is pretty much what the starter is also doing. All in all, ready-made is a risk like under-construction and sometimes either is a worse risk. It all depends on you and the particular person that you are dealing with. Anyway, thanks for discussing. Have a very good day. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Who Is A Guy With Potential? by Orikinla(m): 10:11am On Sep 03, 2014 |
A guy with focus who knows his priorities for progress and success. He must have proven skills and talents and explore all the opportunities and possibilities of the potentials. He must develop his potentials, because potentials determine the prospects of success in life. He must believe and observe the rule that honesty is the best policy. At 21, a guy with potential must have defined his focus occupationally and professionally. He must be a go–getter : a person who works very hard and who wants very much to succeed. Most girls and women want to marry a go-getter. And not a sponger. |

Acidosis: "If you meet a man or a woman who can’t communicate his/her career goals and/or his/her goals are vague (e.g. “My goal is to be a millionaire in 5 years), he/she may lack potential. I agree with you that a person who cannot communicate his/her goals clearly may lack potentials We should also be cautious of those' talk talk no productivity-mobility but no action' guys, they can spend the whole day telling you how they are going to register ten companies in partnership with their pal in the US and how the technology will revolutionalize things, all na lie. |

pickabeau1: Well Well Maybe Nigerian ladies will stop chasing money or equating potential to money the day Nigerian men have more to offer than money. If a lady believes all men are cheats, etc. she should by all means look for a rich or potentially rich guy to marry. Like a friend of mine (a guy) would say, even if a rich husband hates you, he will buy you a car, his name will give you connection to grow your own business, will get people to do stuffs for you etc. not because he loves you but to maintain his status. It is better to cry in a BMW than to cry in a keke. If one must eat frog, he must eat the one that has egg |

Re: Who Is A Guy With Potential? by adconline(m): 10:52am On Sep 03, 2014 |
Potentiality is that dream, vision and idea without action. Actuality is that dream, vision and idea set in motion by your hustle and determination. There is no actuality without potentiality. To put things in context, Nigeria is potentiality without actuality while Malaysia is potentiality on wheels racing towards actuality. It's not only peculiar to men, a lot of single women out there do not know what to do with their lives if that "husband"doesn't come their way. |
