You playing too much. Get serious or you will constitute your brain to be playful

Go and look for work is valid though.

You're preaching doesn't mean you should become a dependent or a financial nuisance to people around you. Paul was a tent maker and a lawyer, and part of his "pride",if I'll call it that, is though he could demand financial aid from his congregation, he opted not to, lest anyone speak evil of the good work he was doing.

Matthew still worked taxes. Luke was a doctor. James, John, Peter, were fishermen.

If you don't have a full-blown ministry or are not a missionary, then you should most certainly be working.

Not saying you shouldn't preach. Please do. But while waiting for Christ's secondary coming, we don't wait in idleness. Whatsoever your hands find to do, do with all your might. Your hands should find something to do.

So you have been working for years, saving for years and decided to buy a brand new Ferrari, are you not going to test drive it before paying?

You can justify having an unnecessarily large sexual appetite all you want.

Lol. But what goes around comes around. And stays around. As you're "test driving" other people's daughters, it's the same way your daughters, nieces, and grand kids would be test driven by other randy men too.

And let me also inform you, 90% of them would end up not buying the damned car. Just like you didn't "buy" or marry all the girls you test-drove.

As a man, if someone keeps sleeping with your daughter without marrying her, would you like it? It's like having a car dealership. And this young man picks out one of your most expensive rides and starts driving it, says he wants to test it. Does this for three hours, comes and parks it and says he's not buying yet. And he comes in every week, putting milage on the thing, yet not buying.

Won't you get out a shotgun and blast his head off for driving down the value of your car, next time you see him in your shop?

Have a conscience, young man.

Lol. These ones are lost. Fornication is not a sin? Bible said a man will leave his parents and be joined to his wife. And they twain shall become one flesh.

What other joining is more obvious when something came out of you was used to create your partner, whom God himself approved of and brought to you?

That's the highest form of commitment and it's a covenant (as all marriages are covenants) that God himself put his stamp on.

This man is saying they were "dating". People just choose to quote the Bible out of context.

So because Adam said "woman", it means she was not his wife? So as a married man, if you go out and someone asks you, "where's your woman?" that would be politically wrong, or would you assume he was referring to your girlfriend and not your wife?

Omo. People are completely lost.

Hmm. This is a funny case. Well, first of all, sorry about your situation. It's a kind of scar that one carries for life. As much as you can, try to heal and even though it's not on your mind right now, be open to future relationships.

A man shouldn't be alone, especially as you get older. Just keep in mind that you don't punish the next woman for the sins of this one. But shine your eyes well well. Don't repeat your mistakes.

You'll be fine.

As for relocating... well. Go because there's a REAL opportunity available to grab, not because you need it as an escape from your heartbreak. There are other, less expensive ways to deal with the broken heart.

Again. You'll be fine, man. You've seen worse things in your life. You'll see this one through too.

1. Consistency I've been on Upwork since it was odes, it's just recently I started getting traction.
2. Profile optimization, I bought a course from RemoteOliver on Twitter it was like 4 usd, you have to clean up your profile.
3. Portfolio matters alot, the better your portfolio, the higher your chances.
4. Niche skill, no point finding gigs with the only skill you know, you have to upskill
5. Good communication and over delivering, once I take up a project, I usually handle the direction myself without requiring input from the owner


Thanks a lot, man. I appreciate it

I have a question.

You've been successful on Upwork. If you were to summarize it, what are FIVE things you did that helped get you to the point where you have offers coming at you rather than applying?

Thanks.

Romance / Re: I'm So Angry by DkJay: 10:31am On Jan 09
This may sound harsh, but guy, stop it. Just stop it. Stop castigating yourself. Stop pulling yourself down.

I see you being angry at yourself for making one slip, but lemme ask you, what did you use to reward yourself for the 49 days you were disciplined?

Did you congratulate yourself? Did you take yourself out? Did you tell yourself kind, encouraging words? Did you tell yourself, I'm proud of how far you've come?

I'd bet you didn't.

Yet one little mistake, you're ready to beat yourself up. That's no way to grow. If you can't forgive yourself, you can't love yourself. If you don't truly love yourself, you can't truly love another person - not your wife, not your kids.

I used to be a perfectionist, always unsatisfied if I don't get 100%, but I learned to forgive myself when I make mistakes, and more importantly, to celebrate every little win.

If you have celebrated every single day you were able to go without breaking your streak, this tiny mistake won't be an issue. You'll pick yourself up and get back on the horse without feeling "depressed".

Romance / Re: Is It Possible For A Lady To Be Disvirgined Without Bleeding? by DkJay: 7:18am On Jan 04
Yes it's possible. Not everyone bleeds during the first sex. Sometimes, the hymen is just pushed to the side and remains there.

Or the blood would have been so little, it wasn't noticeable and quickly disappeared after the first few thrustings.

The tragic thing about this thread is that the guys don’t realise that the girls they tangled with have given them what they should have reserved for their husbands.

I call it the nectar.

When these guys break the ladies' hearts by misbehaving or ending the relationship (because they are not mature enough to handle the nectar), the girls go round with 'all men are scam' and when they get married, they have no nectar to give their husbands because they have become jaded.

The small boys who couldn't handle the nectar of their girlfriends of their youth would grow up and begin to look for a woman like her. Fortunately, they meet nectarless women and Start crying 'all women are scum'.

Goodluck to both parties.

This is a funny analysis and it made me laugh out loud.

I also low key wonder if the bad things happening to people are as a result of someone's transgressions in the past. Like these boys breaking girls' hearts... Maybe the girls' fathers were 'OGs' in the past?

And I wonder if karma is waiting for some of these people down the road.

Girl fell in love with me after being friends for close to seven years. First time in my life a girl would cry cos of me. I knew I couldn't reciprocate the love and I gave her space for her to heal. One whole year without contact, from someone we talk almost every day.

We're cool now, but I only allow conversations like three times a month or so.

Laslas, everyone will reap the fruit of their actions, one way or another, directly or indirectly.

Bible says, don't let your good be evil spoken of.

You've done so well for him, sacrificed a lot... Just at the tail end now, you made this decision and people are castigating you, ignoring the sacrifices you already made like say you no do good at all.

If you want to be good, be good through and through. He didn't go for the job interview but trust me, if he'd gone and gotten the job, this stress would be off your neck and you'd have put him in a position to be indebted to you for life.

Now, you're the one explaining to strangers online who don't care about you in the first place.

Bro, you did well by helping him get the job. Just don't stop halfway next time.

Romance / Re: Why Do Guys See Nothing Wrong Seeing Their Partners With Male Besties? by DkJay: 9:25am On Aug 18, 2023
It's almost a dare. Sure, my babe has male friends, but I don't get jealous at all. She knows how many girls want me like cray.

I told all my female friends I have someone, and I've also shown my babe numerous chats where the girl said, I wish you were single.

If she gets tempted by some random guy, she knows she's the one who's going to lose, because several girls are more than willing to relieve her of that position.

I don't know who's going to win this clash but one thing I'm sure of is this:

If Madrid should mistakenly win it, Inter should pack their bags and go home.

As a matter of fact, there's no way Inter can stand up to whoever wins this bout.

Romance / Re: Where Did You Meet Your Partner? by DkJay: 3:12pm On Mar 27, 2023

Friend of a friend.

We got to chatting online, and after a while, we agreed to meet.

One day, I met her neighbour (Her neighbour was dating my friend that introduced me to her). This neighbour was a pretty cool chick, even though I was also meeting her for the first time. But we'd both heard about each other.

Okay. Help me send for the girl I came to see. She asked a kid to go while she kept me company.

Would you believe the girl I was waiting for came and stood afar off while looking at me but wouldn't come close to me?

She was jumping up and down, and stopping to look at me at intervals. I guess she was so excited excited I actually came. I couldn't even see her face properly, and she was still in her school uniform. Heck, I was still in mine too. Lol. Secondary school days. I was getting irritated because I was tired after the long day at school and the detour I had to make yet the girl was too shy to come see me, not to mention wasting my time.

Her neighbour volunteered to go drag her for me, and went to meet her but wasn't able to convince her to come closer. I got tired of waiting and walked away.

After I'd walked a distance, I heard them calling me back but I just lockup, put earpiece in my ear.

We still continued chatting afterwards, and I don't remember my actual first meeting with her. But I know I invited her to come work in the same place with me back then and that made us get much more closer and know each other better.

We were very good friends for over seven years before we finally started dating.

The person who did this "Walk of shame" graphic no try at all. The guy is still looking classy. Shoulda used another picture. Imagine walking slowly, comfortably and with swag in a place that looks like the evil forest.

He's still smiling and has his sunshades on with seeming no care at all. This doesn't look very 'shameful' to me.

Anyway. I'll believe Tinubu is the president when he's officially sworn in. Till then, I'm just watching.

The matter funny sha. But I've picked up a thing or two from reading through all the comments from the beginning.

When I think about it, it's not common for my parens' friends to refer to either of them by their names, but it happens.

In my own little experience, my babe is a family friend. She has her own relationship with everyone in my family and they all address her by her name.

I doubt that's gonna change when we get married

I think this name calling matter is dependent on two factors.

1. How your friend wants his wife to be addressed.

2. The closeness between you and your friend's spouse.

But between these two factors, methinks the wishes of the man carries more weight.

Like it or not, marriage is an accomplishment in this side of the world so yeah, people attach a lot of things to it.

It is also true that every man wants to guard his territory, even women. "Your wife", "your husband", "Madam", "Oga" and other similar titles do that for people, i.e., guarding their territories.

And as someone said, with the emotional blindness people develop in the area of marriage, it is not far-fetched for anyone to jump into conclusion that you're sleeping with their wife, that's why you can afford to be so familiar with them.

About the friendship, na man you be.

If you want to cut it off, it's up to you. But I don't think you should hide it.

Straight up tell him that he effed up and tell him your grievances. You guys might be able to come to a better understanding and respect for each other or you reach a compromise.

Even if you don't, at least everyone is clear on where the other person is.

I no dey like any funky business. If you no rate me, tell me to my face. Don't hide about it or beat around the bush.

That said, for the sake of peace, do as he says.

If you can't, let everyone go their separate ways.

Phones / Black Friday Deals, 80k - 90k Budget by DkJay: 5:08am On Nov 28, 2022
A friend wants to get a phone and I told her to take advantage of the Black Friday deals on platforms like Jumia and Konga.

I need suggestions for a phone within the price range of 80k to 90k.

Things I need most:

> Storage
> Camera
> Battery life

In that order.

I'll appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks!
