I think you should still marry her.

Her experience could come in good use.
If her blood test and STD tests come back clean, why not?
Travel / Re: How Can I Stay Safe When I Arrive In Nigeria? by Oats: 4:53pm On Dec 19, 2009
Okay  grin

as a girl born and breed in England that only visits Nigeria once a year every year (i have done since i was 10, i am a naija girl wink)my top top top tips are

1. Do not be too flash, especially if you know you cant afford it, so the car you drive around in, the amount you tip the driver, the food you eat, hotel you stay in etc, should be average when you travel

2. When travelling, travel at around 7am when there are plenty of cars on the road and stop when it gets dark, so around 8/9 latest.

3. Pray and give to beggars they pray well.

4. If you dont speak the native language and you have a heavy accent that shows where you are from i.e the UK keep your mouth shut! i beg, a diffrent accent automatically means you have money and if worse comes to the worse practise your pidgin.

5. Always keep your tank on half when it gets to lower than half always refil.

6. Check your car for work that needs to be done, change the water, oil and check for tires etc.

7. If you dont trouble bad people, they dont trouble you.

8. HAVE FUN smiley

ive only traveled to Abuja, Ibadan, Osun, Ogun and Ife by road but would loooooove to go to Kano and Jos

carmelily:

So totally not true.

to have it match weave? they but chemicals init, i think not.
chemically alter it to make it CURLY yes
carmelily:

He said NO WEAVE, ok?
OKAY, !

carmelily:


Easier than you think. I did it.
my hair is natural too, and in my experience it hasnt been easy at all


carmelily:
huh?
subconsciously poor spelling smiley my bad, we relax out hair without thinking twice, or even questioning why we do it

carmelily:
It's still Asian hair you're buying!! cheesy
its manufactured in korea cheesy, most of the hair in the UK is european.

carmelily:
you're right about the complimenting part. But going natural is not as hard as you say at all!
individual  diffrences, to ME hair is psychological and my mother and friends think its discusting and if you have all these negative things around you talking about the natural you, it is as difficult as i stated  wink

i think the point of this thread was totally missed

white women dont chemically alter there hair to have it match weave. it just does

he wouldnt have ANYTHING to say if your hair was in its natural state with a KINKY weave

and thread starter can i just say : MOST of us have has our hair relaexd from a young age (i was FIVE) WE KNOW NO BETTER
and its hard to transition back to natural, especially if you know nothing about it. You also lose your hair length
get stares from other BLACK people and if your afro hair is short in the begining its not versitalie

i dont mess with skin bleach, i cant even be bothered to cream my body self grin
i do use wigs as i just shaved off all my hair to go natural- my wigs are striaght and as long as hell 23"

and for some people wigs and weaves are used for a change like - long hair down to your bum for 4 weeks, short rhianna style for another 4 weeks
it does add verity to some of our lives

SOME OF US DO THE RELAXER THING SUBCONSIOUSLY


AND i dont frequent those asian shops, if someone is going to get rich off of me, trust me that person will be black, & black women dont be fooled just becuase they have a black girl working for them, or behind the counter that the shop is owneed by blacks! its not and asians hate you

now men if you do see a woman with her natural hair, tell her out looks nice, the bravery, strength and courage it takes to wear it out, not putting a weave or wig ober it, you would not believe
Romance / Re: Do Men Prefer Skinny Women Or Curvacious Women? by Oats: 4:19pm On Dec 17, 2008
this will sound a bit weird but maybe hes all over you now becuase its like a new relationship?
as your body shape has changed drastically whilst together, he could see you as a new person, new excitment, new pussy

just new, new and thats what everyone wants right? something new?

and i think men like curvy women but no-one ever draws the line from curves to fat

Fashion / Re: How To Acheive A Black Afro Hairstyle by Oats: 3:47pm On Dec 17, 2008
my hair is afro right now too

and i dont think you should put an of the dyes suggested into it
as it makes your hair dry and thin

i recommend using henna- in indigo colour

search other hair boards too, im new and i would post a link but id dint read the rules embarassed
