Ok kiki, now calm down and go ahead the way u like. I'm not feeling for useless arguments. U have your opinion, I have mine. U don't have to agree with everyone, neither do I. Anyway, if you can remember, I was just quotin David and telling him that I liked his words, I wasn't offending you, you just felt offended and started to hit back on me. But whatever!

it's like you no fit understand when people try to give you good advise. Just calm down and take a good advise when you get it. but anyway u are right, cause u and ur talk are really not my business. Thanks God for that!!

@Kiki

Your words are so so true. Really, I'm also talking from experience.

@Mubowa
I'm graduating from something like college. You know I'm living in Germany and they don't have college and stuff like that, they do an apprentice ship after high school be4 they start to work and my apprentice ship is at a foreign language school. After graduation I'm going to be a foreign language correspondent. I think that's the best explanation. So, and when it comes to my relationship, I can really say that no matter which problems me and my man have or had, that we have always been able to handle it up til now, so there was never real drama and also never affected my school in a negative way. As I said it before, my man is even one reason why I'm doing so well in school again because of his loving support and motivation. But ok everybody has his own view about these things,

I'm definitely addicted. Maybe I've not posted so much yet but I love going through the threads and see so many opinions. Ever since I've registered, I am here almost every day. And now I'm going to stay at my mom's house for 2 weeks and she ain't got no internet. I'm already afraid of the withdrawal symptoms o

@ mo money
No we're not married yet. You know, for now we consider each other as boyfriend and girlfriend, best friends and also like sista and brother. I think it's too early to think about marrying, although we love each other but we have to see first what the future brings and whether in future we are also still able to handle the problems that our age difference causes. As you said, I have to consider it also in the next thirty years. The step to the altar is a very important step and that's why we don't want to rush things. For now we are very happy that we have each other and I doubt that this will change in future.

I totally agree with you Seun.

@TaniCarr
And of course it depends on the situation and on my child. I remember I used to get a dirrty slap from my mom when I was badly naughty and I know that she had talked to me about that a few times before but I never listened, so I'm not angry for those slaps and they don't hurt my anymore (I mean emotionally) but I have also seen people who beat their wife or children for no justified reason, only because they are impatient or frustrated. So,those people am I talking about when I say that they are intellectually weak and primitive. Not about a mother who wants to give her child a little shock by a harmless slap, and it's important that you have tried to talk to your child before you use that method and that you later explain why you had to use physical power on him or her.

I think that anybody who hits another person no matter if wife, child, friend or whatever, is proving in that moment that he or she is not able to argue with his mind but only with physical power and thats a big sign of intellectual weakness and primitivity.

@ Q.T.

Look, I can partly agree with some people here who say that he must be a sick and nasty man when he is dating a 18-year-old girl, cause there are really so many men of this kind who are just lookin for young, fresh meat in order to feel young themselves. But on the other hand I also have to tell you that TRUE love don't give a f*** about age. Like in my case, my man and me have almost the same age difference like you and that man but we've been together now for 1 and half years and we are very happy in this relationship. I can see that he's not together with me because of my young age but because of my character and my personality and believe me, it took some time for me before I found that out. To make a long story short: U have to find out what kind of guy he really is. I know it's not easy because a lot of men are really good actors but I think with your 18 years you are already able to do your best in order to find out what his intentions are. And just stay away from him if you see that he is really only a sick man looking for much younger girls. But in case you feel that he's interested in you because of you as a person then take your time to make sure that it's really like that. Don't rush anything! I wish you the best!!!
And for those who claim that your studies might be disturbed by that, I have to say that before I met my man, I was really not doing well with my studies cause I just had a bad time but when I met him he motivated me so much everyday, and now I'm proud to say that I'm about to graduate as one of the best among my schoolmates.

@ MUBOWA

Thanx Mubowa for explaining me so well, now I know more. As I said before, I`m not an Nigerian. I`m learning a lot about Nigeria but yet I don`t know everything. Anyway, the most things I learn is about Edo, cause my man is from Edo State. But thanks again for the clear explanation of the different grammar rules.

[/quote]ibk what's up with the stress sign on your name[quote]

Well Mubowa, I checked up an online Yoruba dictionary for the word "blessing" and that was what I saw. I think the stress signs belong to the Yoruba alphabet. They tell you how to stress the word cause sometimes a word can be the same but has a different meaning if the stress signs are placed on other letters. At least that`s what I heard. Hope I could answer your question

Thanx soooo much for your warm welcomes Yes, I chose the name because I always pray to GOD to bless me, my friends and family. And I have to say that although I`m neither Nigerian nor African but I do really feel so good whenever I´m on this site, especially because of some very interesting and wise discussions. Since friends of Nigeria are also welcomed to register I decided to do it. My man is from Naija and so I am learning quite a lot about its culture, customs and so on and I really like it.

Hi people, I am so happy to have found this site and I do really enjoy visiting it and I hope that I will be joining lots of interesting discussions. I already look forward to doing it.
