Not Tinubu, whose every outing abroad brings us embarrassment and shame!✍️
This is one of the things I am learning. You offered me a service and even if I paid you, I would still say ‘thank you’… this is basic human decency. You didn’t cook it so thank the person that did.
The first shock of my life as a Nigerian while growing up was when I went to some of my friends’ houses and I discovered that they used to thank their parents after eating.
Firstly, she hiding this from him was evil and the fact that she carried that trauma into marriage is alarming. She’s a ticking time bomb. You shouldn’t hide this type of thing from your partner.
Typical Nigerian man. What he did was stupid. You got back on your feet and decided to get back to her by buying the house? Lame ass Nigga😂😂… some folks can’t really act like some people don’t exist. It’s a top tier act if you can master it.
Your brain can't feel relaxed and on guard at the same time. So the second a man makes you laugh, the part of you sizing him up for danger goes quiet. That easy, comfortable feeling is your body deciding he's safe before your mind catches up.
The wiring behind it is older than dating itself. A rat will stop playing the instant it smells a cat nearby. No animal plays when it senses a threat, because play only happens once you feel safe. People run on the same setup. Laughing and goofing around is your body's way of saying the coast is clear.
Goofiness trips that switch faster than almost anything. Two researchers in Colorado pinned down in 2010 what makes something funny: a joke has to catch you off guard while feeling totally harmless. It's the same thing going on with tickling, or someone faking a scary lunge and then grinning. Your body jolts for half a second, sees there's no real danger, and the relief pops out as a laugh. A guy being silly is handing you that little jolt on purpose.
Then your body pays you back for it. When you laugh hard with someone, your brain puts out endorphins, the same feel-good chemicals you get from a good workout. Researchers at Oxford showed this across six separate experiments, and later caught it happening on brain scans. Laughing also drops your cortisol, the chemical that keeps you tense and wound up, and a quick look at eight studies found a solid laugh can cut it by about a third. So a few seconds of laughing together is, quietly, calming her whole body down.
The "on purpose" part is sneakier than it sounds. Choosing to look like a dork when you don't have to takes a bit of nerve, and your brain reads that nerve as confidence. A 2016 study from Harvard and Wharton found that even a joke that bombs still makes someone seem more confident, just for taking the swing.
Men and women split here too. When scientists put it to the test, women leaned toward men who could make them laugh, while men leaned toward women who laughed at their jokes. They first found this in 2006, and it held up again when the test was repeated in 2015. So a man working to make her laugh is aiming right at the thing that tends to win women over.
One rule decides whether any of this lands. The joke has to be on him, or just plain silly, never on her. A review of more than 15,000 people found that poking fun at a partner makes couples less happy, while laughing together pulls them closer, and the laughter has to go both ways. A guy acting goofy to put you at ease is spending a little of his own pride to shut off the alarm in your head. The laugh you give back is the receipt.
A rich man’s wife has a higher chance to cheat on him with someone who is not as rich as her husband and a poor man’s wife as a higher chance to cheat on her husband with a rich man or someone well-to-do than her husband.
If we date, don’t stop being you. Keep having fun, keep seeing your friends, keep chasing your goals, and keep enjoying your life. A relationship should add to your life, not take away from it. Just make sure you save time for us too.
I don’t think people realize how stup!d they appear when defending someone/things..
It’s okay to stan someone/something, to support them, push their works and love them.
But when you find yourself “defending” the person/thing MORE than you ‘support/push’ them, then you’ve started fooling your age.
It’s the same thing with religious people…
- Preach the Gospel, No!
- Act Christ-like so people can look at you and love your creator more, Mba!
- Move in a decent way so people will want to affiliate with your maker, lai lai
- Extend love to your neighbours so they can think to start worshiping where you’re worshiping, iro o!
But when it’s time to DEFEND that God/Pastor/Church, Morons will come out gvns blazing willing to cut heads for their spiritual father
You love this maker so much.. Yet, you dey knowingly go AGAINST him will on a daily ?
You really love this maker, you can’t abide by just 1 or 2 commandments out of the 10 he stated in his book ?
But once Oyedepo or Adeboye goof, na you go first wear shin-guards turn prime Maldini.
Fool!sh souls!
