This is funny and very lame if you would ask me. If I went to school to be a Dr and I introduce my self as Dr whatever- how would that be an issue. My dear the worst person to lie to is yourself. If you are a Christian ; say it act it. If you are a virgin say it if you choose to- its a free world. Why should you be attacked for saying who you are. If you are not a virgin- say it if you want to..If you are a hoe- say it and be proud of it. We all have been given choices and we all would have to live up to the consequences of our choices.

You are right virgins might not talk about it- because it is not the popular thing to say. However keeping quiet does not make it right.The way people speak up against slavery or corruption as being wrong is the same way people should speak up that being a virgin might not be the order of the day but it is in line with the word of God and certainly the right thing to do. I can't count how many young ladies have found this information beneficial. Let me add there is nothing wrong in telling a guy straight up where you stand- it makes the elimination process easier and also you avoid uncomfortable situations. A guy shouldn't feel comfortable talking trash to a girl who has clearly stated where she stands. If you for whatever reason try to go with a guys flow - then don't feel disrespected if he does or says anything stupid. 5 Likes |

cikadile: I am a professional, earn some money, at least enough for my needs We all have different backgrounds and upbringing . I personally think the reasons stated were not good enough reasons to call off the engagement- but then again what do I know? I agree with emiye- you should have sat him down and spoken to him about your concerns. You just cannot assume things especially when the guy is not talking. It could be that things are a bit tight for him and he understands and is thankful for a girl who understands his current situation. It could also be that he is just not a giving person. We could assume several other things - best case scenario would be to sit him down and see where he is coming from. You sound like you are doing better than him financially and you knew that before delving in to the relationship. I would have said to be a little more patient with him. He is not lazy- he works and he seems to care .All being said, you are the one wearing the shoes and you know exactly where it hurts- If you have peace with your decision then stay with it. But if you are thinking twice- maybe I shouldn't have done that- make things right asap. I wish you the best dear. |

One of the best threads ever on NL! It's about time we stand and be a voice in our generation for the right thing regardless of what the society tries to portray as being "okay". No matter how much we as humans try to twist the word of God to suite us - the word would never change. I sincerely get tired sometimes talking about this- especially when the person is so bent and has so many reasons to back up what is clearly a sin. I result to keeping quiet- as long as it does not change my actions or what I believe in. This thread stresses the importance of speaking up and not being quiet! - you just never know the impact you would be making. The issue of marriage and relationship seems very complicated especially when we try to do things on our own and exclude God. It's like doing the work of the ministry without the help of the Holy Spirit - you would work twice as hard. 1 Like |

I sincerely do not know. It's been one story or the other - and what makes it worse is that his attitude towards me has changed 360 . I miss him so much because he is my best friend and now he wouldn't even see me and limits talking to me. It's been 2 months and I still feel like I'm in a nightmare that I need to wake up from. I also had to write 2 board exams feeling this way- thank God I made it! He wasn't perfect but I loved him and accepted his flaws . I was also at peace that I was in God's will. I have pleaded with him against the wish of my family and friends but at this point I would do anything to get my peace back. Things have not been the same for 2 months now- even though I have numerous things to be thankful for this year- I have not had the opportunity to enjoy them. I don't know how long this would last but one thing I know is I am exhausted. It's easy for you to say move on; its not the end of the world. I would say the same- that's the logical thing to do but the reality is different. I am the girl who is always smiling, playful and happy but I find myself now in deep thoughts and tears rolling down my cheeks .My life seems like its slipping away- and It does not help that I just moved to a new place and started a new job. The worst of all the emotions I feel right now is that of betrayal- he sees the effect this is having on me and does nothing about it. Let me add that its hard but I still trust God . ( Theme song I trust you lord Donnie Mcclurkin) Okay enough of my story- I smile because I can imagine the "smart comments" that would follow this post :-) gotta to love nairaland !!! |

obowunmi: Your question was why would God lead you to someone who would say no. Mko answered by stating the fact that only God knows. In the case of Moses God knew Pharaoh would say no. Also God does not exercise authority over us he gives us a free will- so if a lady or guy you are led to says no you can choose to be persistent or you can be led to another. 1 Like |

goofie: Goofie if courting entails planning for the future together then I have nothing against it. But when it's a trial and error process then it's either the individuals involved have not heard from God or they simply do not trust Gods choice. I totally agree with you there is work to be done in understanding each other, setting goals and all but it shouldn't be a time for sampling. 2 Likes |

I totally agree with mko and goofie your missing his point. If you pray for direction from God and your certain that you have found the one why court?-aka studying the person and all. I also grew up with courting doctrines - I heard that day in day out and to be sincere with you it has no biblical backings and most denominations try to limit it to a year now. When you pray and God shows you the one- you guys can spend time in preparing for your future together- be it through counseling or financial planning and so on. But if you are courting the person 'God' has already shown you to be the one - to see if they change- of what use is that?-even if they change that is Gods choice for you. Or are you doubting God's choice. The key point here is seeking divine direction from above. We are so limited and no amount of studying would be enough. We have to let go and let God. 1 Like |
