Some excuses for the guy..... ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) 1. Maybe the guy is going through a rough patch 2. Maybe the guy had been so busy he forgot to buy anything else 3. Maybe the guy ordered for a candlelit dinner and it never arrived 4. Maybe the guy borrowed the house, car and all the rest...... ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) For those who think he was wrong. Personally I don't see anything wrong. 1 Like |

I don't know why people keep speculating about date and time of this great event. If God reveals date and time to us we would all probably go drinking and partying hoping to do last monute repentance.
Im not saying its impossible, i just dont believe it. Though lately i go momentarilly insane with imagination of end times.
I see fire in the night skies, sometimes its overwhelming brightness. Sometimes I imagine hearing a trumpet blast to signal the begining of the end. Other times I fight with demons in my dream just the mind of an idle man at work i suppose

Thanks to everyone for the various, varied and variegated responses. The morning I posted this message, my mum who normally goes to bed around 9pm strangely called me about 2.00am to ask how 'am doing. I picked the call but was sobbing profusely, muttering no coherent words. She arranged for a family friend of hers to drive down to mine and they took me in and 'am still with them. I’ll like to leave here at the earliest convenience because I feel like invading their privacy, though are most welcoming and would want me to spend some more time with them. I sent one of their kids to my apartment to fetch me my laptop and a few stuff, hence my inability, before now, to get back to you guys on this forum. I've taken time off work and feel a bit relaxed, and my mum would be here to spend some time with me from the end of next week.
Thanks to those suggesting I take succour/refuge in religion/God/Jesus/church/mosque. This is simply not for me. Apart from the fact that I come from a deeply religious family, I am not a religious person mainly because religious beliefs are, in my view, quintessentially irrational. Albeit, I'll describe myself as someone who believes in fair play and subscribes to universal moral codes (morality, rationality and irrationality being relatives rather than absolutes). So, as far as religion is concerned 'am going nowhere near it.
@ Claremont: Yes, re-defining happiness is one route I'll like to explore and 'am having psychological and counselling sessions looking at this as well as personality types which Idehn was trying to map out.
@ MyJoe: I publish and engage in discourses with colleagues not just locally but globally in my field and actually maintain a lively academic blog (won’t divulge it as anyone could be reading this). But there seems to be a wedge between what I do professionally and my ordinary life.
Anyway guys thanks for your help, you’ve been wonderful. I’m taking each day as it comes. Oh, xxqwisit, I’ll try and get in touch.
Good to know you are okay and hope you get even better as the days go by. @bolded, no problem, will look out for you. Do tell when it's your birthday. Take good care. |

Parrott:
The above literally says it all. I've struggled all my life and academically achieved the best I could. I earned my Bachelors degree with First Class Honours, my Masters degree with Distinction and completed my PhD -- from Russell Group unis in the UK. In hindsight, I can now say that my studies gradually put a wedge between me and everyone else: siblings, parents, friends, you name it! I had no time for them (all comfortable, needed nothing from me, except to keep up with me). My social life and subsequently my social skill monumentally became disastrous. I never realized this when I was hiding away in the ivory towers -- where I participated in nothing except my studies: classmates and professors called me "THE MONK", asking whether I would be going into a monastery after living the uni. Plunged into the real world 4 years ago, after finishing my PhD, I knew I had problems. I have no friends because I can't sustain relationships and I've been tagged a loner both at work and in my neighbourhood. I earn good salary, have my own inner city apartment, and quite comfortable, but these do not tantamount to happiness for me. I have sought help from counselors and psychologists (both clinical and psychiatry), have gone on holidays, but all to no avail. My birthday is drawing nigh and on clocking 40, I think it's high time I threw in the towel.
I hope you are still with us ![sad](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/sad.png) . I can understand the frustation of not having anyone to relate with as we all have the need to relate however throwing in the towel is not the ultimate solution and I think if all you have said about yourself is true then it will truly be a tragic waste. I am sure there is someone out there who can be patient enough to take the time and effort to get to know and understand you as a person. You might meet just the one person and your whole perspective on life takes a drastic turn for the better and that one might just lead to another and another, you never know. I kind of think that when one commits suicide, in those last few minutes just before one takes the last breath regret sets in and one wishes they hadn't, sadly it is then too late. It may not seem like it from where you are right now but you do have a lot to live for and you are still so young. You might not think so but there will be people who will be deeply saddened by your death and whose lives may never remain the same if you take your life. Please don't surrender to the dark side of life, be a fighter. ![smiley](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/smiley.png) |

@op
This kind of situation is not for the majority but the minor minority that can work it out end up having fulfilled marriages.
All I would say is, ponder on this issue well and make your decision bearing in mind that if it goes wrong, the lady has a lot more to lose.
You have to know that you are strong enough to stand up to any issues life may throw at the both of you and that includes family, friends, colleagues and the like. Marriage has its issues (full stop) and where there are circumstances to make it that little bit harder, you have to be ready to face up to any challenges. Its not enough to say "its my life", remember that other lives may eventually become a part of the both of yours (children) so think well and look far ahead before you leap. Weigh the pros and cons of a union such as this and be true to yourself, the best thing you can do for this lady is to walk away now if you are at all unsure (and that is not to say there is something wrong with her) or if you feel you cannot cope with the pressure that is likely to come from within and without.
And might I add that statistics do not always matter. If you have a good heart, you will know the right thing to do and all will work out in the end.
Wish you all the best.
As for those who are quick to label the woman "old cargo" and whatnot without even knowing what circumstances put her in the position she is in, I pray that life does not show anyone of you and you find yourselves in situations you never dreamed you would be in. Amen! |
