Banks say this all the time: "We will not send you links to log into your account through mail." It's the solution overall.

Post by: Ngor. on TNC

My friends think I’m the least qualified to write this post but I totally disagree… I may not have an imaginary bae, but trust me, I am writing from years of experience. And I’m going to keep it real with you. I admit that a few of the tips are a bit drastic and I can already see one or two comments about how “the right man will love me for me”, but when you think long and hard about it, you will realize that it’s that kind of Dr Phil talk that has kept you single for this long.

Please get out a pen and a piece of paper, let me help your love life flourish…

1. Don’t be yourself, at least not at first.

Look ladies, forget what you heard. This is TNC. Of course the guys are going to say they choose brains over beauty. What do you expect? All the time we hear about how they love genuine, confident, self-assured women…so you walk around with your natural hair and no make-up. You wear 1980’s dungarees and, armed with your strong political views, you hope to land the man of your dreams. Haba! You sef check am; remember your ex-boyfriend’s side chick? The busty air-head with no waist and braids down to her ass… I mean the same one who tweeted that “God should help the people of Siria and their king, Vladimeer Pootin”. Remember how he favourited that tweet and said it was adorable?

My sister, your current affairs knowledge will get you nowhere near that dream guy. For now, keep your comments on the PDP-APC saga to yourself. There’s no hurry… invest in some good quality make-up and game-changing padded bras and at least catch his eye first. Down the line, he will be pleasantly surprised when he realizes that he can stare at your boobs and get updated on the crisis in Syria at the same.

2. Be visible.

Ladies, if you have any taste, this dream guy should be desirable so chances are you are not the only one thirsting after him. He’s got a million other women offering themselves up to him on a platter of gold. In fact most of these women can serve it up in take away packs for all they care, as long as they get noticed. So you are faced with a dilemma: You have to be visible enough to get his attention without coming across as desperate.

What do you do? I suggest you get in front of him… join his book club, attend his church and join the choir, visit his web page, drop comments on his posts. If he sneezes on twitter, you gotta retweet it or favourite it. If he takes a picture of a decaying toenail and posts it on Instagram, you gotta love it then leave a comment about the deeper meaning behind the picture. Do whatever you gotta do to be seen!!

3. Don’t give too much away.

So you’ve finally gotten his attention and you want to keep it because there are sharks still circling him, waiting for blood. You’re thinking that once he gets to know the real you, he will love you and find you irresistible right? Wrong!

Don’t get carried away and bombard him with too much information all at once. Tell him enough about yourself to keep him intrigued but remain small story for the gods. There has to be some mystery and intrigue surrounding you… it’ll keep him guessing and coming back for more, assuming you are indeed an interesting person. You can drop hints and allow him fill in the gaps. If it works out between the both of you, you will have a long time getting to know each other better, but for now, maybe you should wait a while before you whip out a calendar and begin to describe in detail the events of your menstrual cycle.

4. Listen and learn.

Ask him questions about himself and when he answers, ask more questions. You’re not Aisha Sesay… you don’t work for CNN so don’t turn it into a weird overly personal interview but you have to get to know this guy. Also, he has to know you’re genuinely interested in him (abi? You’re interested right? I’m not preaching all this just so that you can get in his wallet shebi?)

Guys like to talk about themselves… they just need a little prodding. The only challenge may be that once they get started, it’s hard to get them to shut the Bleep up about all the great and wonderful things they’ve done. For example, I used to think that Ubuntu was the neighbouring tribe to Zamunda. I checked Google and when I was reading about it, my brain started overheating and I gave up. So whenever my ex started to talk about web programming and Ubuntu tins, I would fight the urge to nod off, listen attentively and just enjoy watching him talk so animatedly about it.

5. Flirt a lil’.

I am a firm believer in flirting… subtle flirting that is. Look him in the eyes when you’re talking to him. Smile. Laugh hard at his jokes even when they are dry… and when you’re laughing, lean closer, just the slightest bit, and place your hand on his arm. Be open to little touches and subtle hints.

Please o, ladies I said little. Don’t gag on a banana during lunch and then act surprised when he starts groping you later.

6. Pretend to have a life.

If this guy realized that you spend your Saturday evenings stalking his Instagram page and watching re-runs of Friends, he’s not going to think you’re a “good, homely girl”. He’s going to think that you are a freak who doesn’t have a life. Once he comes to that conclusion, he’s going to run far away because no guy wants to be saddled with the responsibility of being the centre of your life…

What you do is, you lie. Tell him about fake trips or outings with your friends. Once in a while, when/if he calls you, rush to the nearest stereo or speaker before you answer. Put the music on and raise the volume. Make sure you loud eeet… then raise your voice and talk above the sound of the music. Tell him that your crazy friends just made impromptu plans and you guys are going on a field trip to Sambisacos, ya know, your friends are mad fun like that…

You know it’s a lie, but he doesn’t need to know that. The result is that he understands that if you guys were to ever date, you would have a great life outside him, with cool Sambisa friends.

7. Baptize your laptop to get quality time.

This is mostly for ladies who are crushing on a guy at work. My crush used to be in the IT department and he was always very busy, so the only way I could get to spend any time with him was by going on an Un-installation spree on my laptop… the idea was to get him to keep coming back to re-install or fix one thing or the other. And it worked for a bit. In fact, if I wasn’t so sure that my company would make me pay, I would’ve dunked my laptop in a bathtub full of water. Imagine how much time we would’ve spent together repairing it!

I don’t know what your dream guy does, but I suggest you spoil it so that he will have to help you fix it ;-)

*************

That’s it ladies! You guys let me know if I left anything out.

ocelot2006:


GEJ wasn't progressing the country?! Total hogwash!! GEJ OUTPERFORMED his predecessors and is SOLELY responsible for the massive growth of our economy. Yet miracles were expected of him by clowns like now. Now it's GMB ' S turn. He had better shape up to deliver those lofty promises of his, OR bug out of the presidency come 2019.

I don't know what numbers you're looking at but from where I stand GEJ and OUTPERFORMED can only co-exist in a sentence that contains CORRUPTION in it. And massive growth of our economy Yea, right! *rme*

I re-iterate, we (you can see the definition in a previous comment) did not expect miracles like people like you want everyone to believe. It's the simple things, really. Not the 'massive numbers without impact' they keep churning out to make people like think there is a 'massive growth in the economy'.

Themandator:



Don't oversimplify Buhari's removal...he will go in 2019 irrespective of his performance.

Well, maybe so. But his performance is crucial to APC remaining at the Federal level.

BraniacX:


Who's we

Speak for yourself alone though I wouldn't totally disagree with your argument, i'll only add to it with my theory that most people who voted for him who were not of the hausa/fulani extraction did it because the then opposition made arguments to the belief that GEJ could not perform miracles because he was inept and his administration was corrupt. Now that GMB's incoming government will be allegedly astute and incorrupt, it is logical for Nigerians to expect him to deliver those miracles that GEJ could not deliver because of his shortcomings

'We' refers to the people that voted him out and are happy they did. And really most of the people I know personally who voted against him are like me. They needed no convincing about GEJ and were already speaking against him before the opposition even started putting anything forward. I know there are those who are actually in total support of GMB but I also know a lot of people like me who care less about who replaces GEJ as long he is gone.

hamilton62:

God forgive me for saying this but I couldn't stand here and let your stupidity reign as a champion. You are more stupid than a chicken God knows this... GEJ did his best and achieved a lot but we said the he didn't and needed change because the money isn't in our pocket... Though he government never fought corruption but he achieved in employment(1.4million annually though he promised 2M while 1.8 is realistic for us), Agriculture... SME and youths empowerment...
He failed us because corruption was draining us not that he didn't do well so get it in you fish brain...
Nigerians are wiser now and all thanks to GEJ for his electoral reforms and freedom of speech and others... He is a Hero but we needed more stiffer hand who can leave up to his and still fight corruption otherwise, we will change him

Naturally, I find it hard to respond to people like you who just jump on other people's comments raining abuses. I let the people who read judge you for who you are. People like you are the kind any sane person would not want on his side in an argument because you simply prove the other person is more sensible by your lack of simple manners. And then you asked God to forgive you?

I leave you to let your stupidity reign as champion...whatever that means.

Women are known to be the more talkative gender and seem to become very open once they get into relationships, but still, women like to enjoy a certain kind of mystery for their man to solve. However, it’s rather unfortunate that very few do. Although it is not that complicated to understand women, many men have great difficulties. Not to worry, that is why I am here today. Sit back, relax and learn.

1. Women Need Space:

If a woman tells you that she needs space, it does not mean that she is cheating or that she doesn’t want to see you so you should disappear as well. She might just want to do women things or allow her mood swings happen without snapping at you and getting the relationship messy.

2. We Notice And Understand Body Language:

Women are known to have sixth sense, especially when it concerns relationships. We always notice and analyze every small detail so we are usually aware of the inflection of his tone when he is talking about someone. This allows us to know what or who strikes a certain emotion with him. Like the way he might talk about a certain colleague…and the follow up late nights at the office.

3. We Want Men To Take Initiative:

It can be a little irritating when a man asks you out on a date…then doesn’t know what to do at the date or to win your affections. I mean, its not like you can’t just be decisive and surprise us with some big deal creative date, is it? Anyway, we do not like to take care and make plans all by ourselves even if some of us might never tell you. When a man takes initiative, it makes us feel like he is involved, interested and definitely deserves to be cared for too.

4. We Are Afraid He May Find Other Women In His Life More Attractive:

This is a very hidden fear among most women that other women in their man’s life might be more attractive to him than the woman herself. The reason is actually quite simple. Men are visual creatures who enjoy a challenge. Plus we all want something we cant have. So except the woman is Rihanna and you are absolutely sure that he is not going to Barbados, every woman is afraid that a man’s desires could be stolen from her lap and he could start fantasising about the other lady. There is almost nothing worse!

5. We Actually Agree With Guy Time:

This is a very deep secret but women actually believe that a man should spend some time with his guys. (well, except she’s very insecure or a man has used guy time as his excuse to misbehave before). We understand perfectly that guys need some space for themselves, pool, beers, cigars and football matches. The only problem that could arise is if the man focuses all his time on his friends and leaves the woman all by herself. She doesn’t want to have to compete for your attention.

6. We Want His Friends To Like Us:

No woman likes to say this out loud but we know that a man’s friends are very important to him, so we want them to like us. This means that we want to show that we love our man and respect him very much. First of all, this helps to avoid unnecessary conflict and arguments. Also it helps when they have such nice things to say about us to him. It will make him feel like he made a good decision, that we are cool, and we can definitely work it to our advantage.

********

Well, I don’t wanna say much more before I get attacked by the Nigerian women association and they put my head on a spike as an example to other snitches…lol. But I hope I helped you guys out a little bit?

Please tell me what you think!

MaximusMeridius:
Obas should not be involved in politics, when 2 of your children fight you don't take sides. He did it in the primaries with Ambode against better APC candidates and got away with it. The problem is Ambode on his own merit does not appeal to many, both ibo and Yorubas. The guy comes across rather dull, unimaginative and rather like a Jonathan mkII...a puppet,a goofball. Ambode cannot win on his own merit, if the Oba hadn't interfered with the APC primaries, a credible candidate that the people can get behind like Sasore, Pitan etc would have emerged, now he is facing the prospect of a clearly more intelligent candidate in Agbaje and they are scared. Not that Agbaje is that great I should add just that next to Ambode he comes across as Einstein.



if he really wants to soil himself by getting involved in politics, then the Oba should first try to convince his yoruba kinsmen why they should vote for Ambode. Threatening people is unbecoming, apologise for the imposition and tell Ambode to up his game, all we see from Ambode's campaigns are studio portraits and musicians dancing, idea, manifesto none! All we hear is continuity, continuity of what, Lekki-express way Scam and the likes? He is trying to imply Ambode is the candidate because they've "consulted", if so then there is no need to fear except they don't really beleive in their "consultations" :lol: The reason why Ambode has a problem (apart from the fact that he is dull) is the people don't like the way he was imposed. if they had allowed the best candidates to emerge, they won't be worried about April 11 because APC started in Lagos and APC has momentum, if you are worried about APC in Lagos they, you know you really bleeped up!!!. People are eager to vote for candidates they beleive in, we are also eager to see federal and state presence in Lagos but it's hard to get the inspiration to spend a whole day to vote for an establishment puppet who cannot even articulate his own vision.


Jk is clearly the better candidate but I'm definitely not voting for him because I don't like the company he keeps. APC are no saints especially Lagos APC but PDP is a party of thugs, criminals and people of dubious characters. Orubebe, 'koro and Foyose and the kind of people in left in PDP and as such i won't vote for JK. I am Yoruba and I can't see why I should vote for Ambode and that's my dilema should I stay at home or vote for APC, because if I do vote it won't be for Ambode but for APC.


Ambode: wrong candidate, right party
JK: Right candidate, wrong party
Oba of Lagos: No comment: because as a yoruba son, I must respect my elders and the institution.

This is sooo on point! Good head on you bro!

Obinoscopy:
Four years is enough to do what they promised. They will face the wrath of Nigerians if they don't fulfill their promise.

Nigerians on their part have to support the incoming government. They have to be ready to internalise this change. Be the change you want to see.

Two things:

1. 4 years is never going to be enough to fix a lot of the issues wrong with this country. But the thing is, all what we can ask for is to see progress in all aspects. Then they won't need to spend billions on campaign because we will want them to continue with the progress.

2. Most of the people who will react negatively to these statements are the sore losers who followed GEJ to his political grave. If you want to be objective enough, you'd know that no miracle is expected of any single government no matter what they said before entering. We didn't chase GEJ out because he didn't perform miracles as his supporters always want to believe. We sent him packing because he wasn't progressing the country in any way that impacts the people's lives and he was both inept and corrupt at the same time. None of those who voted him out will regret it because if GMB fails, we'll just as well send him packing again. So stop the taunts about what they promised and what we are going to see. GEJ had 6 years, 4 years isn't too much to give someone else.

Written by Kunmi Omisore

I have an insatiable interest in relationships. It never ceases to amaze me the issues that arise in an attempt to somewhat peacefully co-exist with a Significant Other. The issues and debates are endless, which perhaps, in itself, fuels my interest in the subject.

I read widely on dating, marriage and their challenges. And I must say that I’ve learnt a lot. But true to the saying, the biggest lessons you learn are usually from experience. Here are four important things I believe everyone in a relationship – or planning to be – should take into consideration.

1. Don’t betray yourself

Anything or anyone that requires you to betray your values, your peace, your dreams or your identity is not at all worth it. This is not to be confused with compromise, which I believe is a very key part of any healthy relationship. Betraying oneself in a relationship can often be mistaken as being ‘the necessary price to pay’ to have a successful one, however someone who is the right fit for you will never require you to be disloyal to your own self, for their personal gain.

2. Love despite how you feel

This is a hard lesson, but it’s an absolutely vital one. Most of us don’t always wake up feeling loving and caring and compassionate; it’s an active decision – to put your partner’s needs above your own, to support and encourage, to understand and be patient. This is even harder when you feel unloved or uncared for, but love is a choice. Genuinely loving someone means loving them especially when you don’t ‘feel’ like it. We need to learn not to give feelings so much power over us.

3. Expectations can be a hindrance to your relationship’s development

No one is born with expectations in their genes; it’s something we learn to have. You don’t naturally expect a comfortable life, love, acknowledgment; it’s what life teaches you to do. From the moment you take your first breath, you want warmth and food and security. In the first stages, that’s all it is: a want. And when those needs are continuously met, you start to expect it, and increasing expect more. And more.

Of course, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with having expectations; if we didn’t, it would be a grand opportunity for people to take advantage of us. However, it does come with what I would consider disadvantages. Because oftentimes, with relationships, we create these ‘ideals’ and when inevitably our realities somehow fall short, we become disappointed and disgruntled.

Here’s the lesson: Stop looking for happiness, contentment, perfection, satisfaction or purpose in another human being. It’s setting yourself – and your relationship – up for failure, because they will never be able to fully provide these things for you. No person on earth is designed to satisfy these needs.

Oftentimes, we’re looking for a whirlwind, catch-a-grenade-for-you, feeling-some-typeawayyy love. While that does happen for some, they are arguably in the minority. Love should not be disappointing because it doesn’t have your heart doing backflips; it’s a lot more.

I believe in God, and I believe in His ability to fully supply me with everything I will ever need, so I have chosen to focus on Him, and quit placing the burden on any other person and putting undue pressure on a relationship. It’s frankly unfair.

4. There’s no ‘One’

Many people might disagree with this, understandably so. Let me explain this: I don’t buy into the La La Land idea of The Chosen One. It encourages people to look for that perfect partner, who they won’t find because that person does not exist. It builds false ideas and hopes about relationships. Relationships will always be challenging because two completely different people – with different temperaments, needs and ideas – have chosen to be together, and that is bound to present a level of difficulty. However great they are as a person does not displace this fact.

I believe that you find someone who is a good fit and constantly work at building something you will both enjoy. If you’re privileged enough to find someone who you’re comfortable with, whose company you enjoy, who likes you as you actually are (not as they hope you to be), who shares your key values and principles, and who you can co-exist reasonably well with… That might very well just be your One.

What’s your opinion? What do you believe everyone in a relationship should know/learn?
