I remember chocomilo and goody goody, even the theme

hmmm, seems I'm getting older

Toks2008:


Very true


All these forming and hypocrisy dey always vex me where you see people always try to paint a superlative picture of themselves.

Igboro o rerin and many ladies you see out there don't know what they want but trust me, if a lady hooks up with you online for a date you can be more certain that she means business especially if she is 30 or above.

You will hardly see decent ladies out there except maybe in theire work place where you cant disturb them and another place is in their homes where you cant barge into.

The other option is online where they can be in their bedroom and hook up with you. It will amaze you the quality of friends i have on nairaland both male and female and i don't think i have ever met such friends offline.Decent and responsible set of ladies that any man will be proud of.

Trust me, it can be frustrating wooing a lady offline because you dont even know the one that is married,engaged or not even searching but online you are most likely to get a decent single and searching lady just at a click.

Look at the creator of this thread and observe her personality and tell me if she does not seem very responsible yet you will hardly even think of walking up to her one on one due to prejudice.

I will talk from experience... Love is over rated and in marriage love isn't the first thing to even consider


The first thing is emotional psychological and social compatibility


When the challenges of life and worries sets it...my dear love will fly away


Our parents those days never dated ...I am talking from Igbo point if view ..they were arranged introduced and they married ...their marraige lasted and we rarely hear of divorce

Today we date and claim love them tomorrow divorce

So I think we should grow in love in marraige and not fall in love


Known my wife for like 10 years now still trip for her

Ours was an early one

Started having kids at 27 then broke ass dude ..she stood by my side


Honey I love you ..your the best



So love isn't the first dear

Oppy4God:

hmmmm

erad:


I beg to differ sir. Too much of anything, love inclusive, can be and is bad.

I'm stating it as a personal opinion and not a fact.

lyntiffany:
what the hell are you doing here?

Hmmmmm sorry was only adulting

Oppy4God:

hmmmm

erad:


I'm my opinion, love isn't a scam but definitely has been overrated. Love most often than not isn't an inexplicable feeling, it's a decision. Love doesn't sustain any marriage, understanding does.

udysweet:
Well said! That's true. Am more of an indoor pesn o,I find It difficulut mignling wit pple,weda na shyness dey cause am,lool! But trust me I've made good friends online more than I've ever made in my life,friends who hav impacted on my life. And yes I've also met terribles ones,who hav no gud intentions abt u(evn on dis forum) so I can be indoors an be able to be in uk,a and d rest of d world,jus wit a click of my phone button.
PS: nice thread,tho I'm on page 4(ran out of steam)lemme go bak and continue,loool. If I faint mak una send e-lucozade or e-glucose for me o

Thanks Bro

I often hear men say they don't want to feel disrespected in their relationships.

Please can the opposite gender (men) tell us sisters very clearly the sort of conduct that constitutes disrespect.

Being disrespectful to me as a woman entails

1. Not answering my calls or returning my calls. Just generally being unresponsive to calls & texts without justification.

2. Giving me money directly hand to hand - gentlemen please you do not give your woman money that way. You either put it in an envelope or leave it by the table, in a drawer and notify her.

Will be right back my battery is about to die out. Looking forward to a male perspective on this ooo.

Love is understanding

You do not hate someone and try to understand him

That sir in my opinion is wrong again. Do you love your enemies? But of course the only way to defeat your enemies/opponents is by first understanding them and then trying to use that understanding to your advantage.
The first step in solving a problem is by first understanding the problem.

So love and understanding are world's apart in definition and application.

Thank you.

kaboninc:


Looking for someone like you.....

Toks2008:


Im just fed up with all these offline wooing things.

Ironically most ladies that wow me are usually seen passing by while ii drive on and i would rather faint rather than park and go after such.

Honestly in my opinion,hooking up with ddecent,responsible and purposeful ladies is quite easier online.

tonychristopher:


Are you Adele

kaboninc:


Sir,

Like I said before, love is not overrated but how we use the word and transcribe its meaning meaning

There's something I think we need to understand here. Talking about emotion and psychology, there are actions you take, decisions you take that ordinarily you won't tolerate but unconsciously because you do love him/her you just allow things to slide.

Talking about our parents and match making, let's be honest, not all homes have fairy tales. Families won't tell you what they are passing through unless you ask them. Also, from my observation, our parents of old who took out time to discover themselves had a fulfilling union compared to those who were match made. Come to think of it, why do our parents today prefer that we 'toast' girls than they match make us?

tonychristopher:


You might not remember chitty chitty bang bang..that movie with flying cars or that soap opera called another life ...I so much hated it then


Oh what about ripples and checkamte


Oh did you watch things fall apart?


You aint seen anything yet



Then we used to write love letters

Then women wear shimmy that thing that is like skirt inside then wear tights and this peteri pants ...hmmmm forget making love to a decent woman then because of these hurdles ..you might be in the proves of removing the to, then the inner singlet, then the bra..it used to be 4 hook bra then the skirt the shimmy,the tight before you have reached the panties..you have realeased as a young side. So it was just pointless then...just try the street girl


Life was fun then ..in 90s when we were in uni women listened and loosened up,we had our ways but you must have sweet mouth with a bit of swag..maybe you as a dude must have Levis Strauss jeans or Lee cooper maybe wrangler jeans with fila boot ..which can be interchanged with timberland boots

Then women will love you in university

But today it is easier ...just exchange bb pin and WhatsApp


Oh my goodness ...why did we get married so fast things are easier today


But that was a beat decision seeing your kid grow and your just 35..thats fun



Maturity comes with experience and mind not age

Gosh

This was a lovely piece men, feeling nostalgic

nice one !!

@Tony Christopher
I have a double mind concerning u, I like some of Ur posts, and then u go and write somethg off.
So...until we can understand u, kindly hold off posting on our thread. After all, Ur married, thus unqualified to be here in the first place.
Some of Ur posts have sexual undertones, hints of escapades, mistresses, etc. abeg our thread isn't for that kind of thing pls.
Thanks and God bless.

siamia:
@tonychristopher
Just in case u didnt get me,....
This thread is for 30plus AND SINGLE.
There are other threads on naira land that cater for all kinds of people.
This one is not for the married.
If Ur married, then Ur visiting, pls respect the house rules.
This lounge is not a place for reminiscing on sexual exploits and escapades, telling stories abt mistresses as a married man.
Its disrespectful to the beautiful people who took time, effort and data, to be on this thread.
Kindly revert back to onlooker status so that the sanity and sense of responsibility on this thread is maintained.
God bless u as u obey....and regards to Ur wifey (who is probably reading this thread from her own phone).

pucci:
You are actually pretty, flaunt it

siamia:
@tonychristopher
I accept Ur apology on behalf of the house.
Pls remain as an observer, and resist every temptation to comment.
Thanks again and God bless.
