Racism where. I have never experienced anything like that. Maybe it’s another chile in another universe.
How does it feel though being the only black person around? I would feel quite uncomfortable. I haven't seen any black person in your photos. Do they stare at you funny?

Honestly, I hardly notice I am black but yes theres always hardly any black people anywhere. Theres haitians in Chile but they never attend any programs or anything. I only see them selling things on the street but when I go anywhere I am always the only black person there. School, church, government buildings, work, restaurant, supermarket. I am always the only black person.

I totally understand why so many men become red-pilled. Back in university, I was practically invisible to women, it was as if I didn’t exist. I remember mustering the courage to tell a Gabonese girl I liked her, and she hit me with, “What’s your like or love going to do for me?” I was so ashamed of myself.

I studied marine engineering at a maritime university, and if you know anything about that field, you know how tough it is to get a job without solid connections. Some companies would visit our school to recruit, but out of a class of 70, they’d hire maybe eight students. And, of course, those eight were the ones all the girls wanted to date because their futures seemed secure.

Then came life after university, and it was even more brutal. I barely had clothes to wear. Most of my trousers were torn at the back, and I just had to manage. I tried starting a business, but it failed miserably. At that point, it felt like all hope was lost.

That’s when I decided to learn coding, not because I had high expectations, but because I kept seeing ads during COVID: “Learn to code and work from home.” I figured I had nothing to lose. Little did I know that single decision would change my life completely.

I started struggling my way through, hustling on Upwork, then moving to Reddit, applying for jobs anywhere I could find an opening, and learning interview skills. Back then, people laughed at me, but little by little, things started improving. I began making decent money by Nigerian standards, but I refused to upgrade my life because my focus was on leaving Nigeria. Every month, I saved as much as I could while researching my best options. That’s how I discovered Chile, and once I had enough money, I left.

The beginning was tough, but looking back now, I’m so glad I made the move. The version of me that was once invisible to women now has them smiling at me and trying to talk to me all the time. But none of that matters because I only love one woman, and she’s the only one I want to be with.

But Zara and H&M aren’t designers. They’re not even mid range.

Why are sellers in Nigeria calling them designers and ripping people off?

Even Coach, Michael kors, Kate Spade etc that sell for around $300-$500 are not designers either.

I think they’re just misusing terms probably due to not understanding the fashion market. Then add greed and it becomes a clusterfk.

Your story is not uncommon.
It is similar to what is happening to billions of guys out there.
I had my own fair share of women snubbing too during my early days with nothing to show.....broke.
That is why i find it hard being faithful now that everywhere done stew.........if you rubbish me during my struggling days, why should i follow love during my hay days?
Have come to realize it is not just a woman thing rather a Human thing.
When you are nobody - family, church, pastor, girls etc all ignore you and you are invincible but when you start earning fine, they all start singing your praises.
I hope the woman you Love is your mum and not one yeye girlfriend....because bro, na owo epo oooooo
As you are growing, as i am growing and other men growing, please never ignore to wisely invest because if you go broke again, believe me, that coldness and invincibility, insults from women would come back again.
Your money is your shield.
If you go broke, it is as good as you being NAKED

I've been called ugly twice by two girls during my school days (secondary school and university). One is now based in Canada, the other is in Nigeria. Their responses towards me these days differ significantly from when I was in Nigeria, especially for the one in Canada. Interestingly, I wasn't doing badly in Nigeria by all standards. The change of responses is one major reason I don't fancy relationships.

You are punishing your virtuous wife for the sins of other women that ignored you.
Later you and pansophist will be demanding virtue from women.

With the way it is,you will have HIV soon

Surprising how nobody seems to acknowledge that trauma affects men,but Believe it only affect women wheras it's worse for men because women trauma only makes them feel unworthy while for men,they must pass it on.

Tomorrow we will have dunces like pansophist talk about going for younger lady so that you don't inherit a problem you didn't cause. But we have you, emmaodet giving a woman a problem she didn't cause.

From an active member of a church donating tithes to calling out immorality in women while ignoring yours to rolling on the sand with juvenile boys. Lol. I pray you find peace.
And you will be 40 soon...Chai

At least gerrard59 is better. He doesn't trouble or harass women under the guise of holding accountable,he lets women be, because he knows men hands are dirty

Just pray you remain rich and you don't lose your money. Because this is the only reason people obviously respect you.

Oh the artists themselves (not coach) are fashion designers obviously. They didn’t just launch their brands without credentials and got so much clout for nothing. Coach is a heritage label and reputation is built of their longevity.

But when people say designers (at least here) they mean luxury items. You’re the one getting caught up in semantics.

It’s the upside down logic for me.

They get money and go cheat with those who used to snub them. Is that punishment? That’s what the girls wanted in the first place. The girls said “oga come back when you have money” and they did grin.

And now they’re perpetuating the narrative that if you suffer with a man he’ll leave you or cheat on you when he makes it. Further causing more girls act in the way they claimed they don’t like.

Honestly that comment gave me chills. So being virtuous is not enough. You can do everything right and your darling husband would put his ego and personal vendetta against baddies above his commitment to you.
