Omoh Lust is really a bastard. Wallahi!
This thing can have you begging to be with people that you have nothing in common with.
Later when your eye don clear, you’ll be like “Dem jazz me??”😭😭😭
Before marriage, I mastered the silent treatment. It took nothing for me to shrug off an emotion or confrontation against a wall of silence. I used to think silence worked; at least, we are not arguing, right?
The society is too sexy for healthy relationship. We spend so much time marketing sex and none marketing marriage. Everyone is trying to look like a meal.
You know the perfect perfume, the gown that will give men erection, you know how to lose weight for the summer, how to get perfect abs, you know the best holiday spot for romance.
Men know how to go on dates, how to appear romantic, how to look interested, how to be confident so he can bed you, how to make great conversation and make you laugh. What to take to last 60 mins in bed. Women know how to eradicate wrinkles, how to use filter to always look picture perfect, how to tighten the sag, how to get breast enlargement and BBL, how to get a face lift, how to swallow Okra and whatever is in the market so that their pussy is wet and slimy.
People are less focused on practicality of life. Life is not a movie set. You want to date people for who they are, not whom they appear to be. No matter how young she looks in her picture, a 40 year old is a 40 year old, with 40 year old biological issues, inconveniences, needs, mindset and history. Her body will still ache like a 40 year old. You can't cheat nature.
So yes, they talks with British accent, they look sexy, they hold the fork and knife well, their IG is fire. But that will not show you if she is accountable when she is wrong, if she contributes her share of the finances to the running of the home, if she has the right values to instill in your children, if she understands commitment is for better for worse and she is there with you against all odds.
Yes, from hia profile you can see his libido is fire and his sex game is lit, his muscles are to die for and you guys would look good together on Snap. But it doesn't show if he would treat you with sincere kindnesses, it doesn't show if he is easily enraged and violent, it doesn't show if he is committed to the home you're creating together. It doesn't show if he will be there when age and life begins to show on your body. It doesn't reveal his value system.
We are looking for love but marketing lust. How is that supposed to work? That is why you cry people are fucking and leaving. You can't sell yourself as a meal and not expect people to come and eat. What happens after eating at a diner? YOU LEAVE! This has left a trail of very damaged people walking around the earth with an exaggerated sense of self filled with nothing but brokenness.
I decided to embark on the 21 days fasting because What God cannot do does not exist
So, I told my wife not to walk around naked to avoid temptations and also to not mention food or eat near me for the next 21 days
My wife screamed, ”Honey, you, fast for 21 days?”
I feel depressed, I go off social media.
I am angry, I go off social media.
I feel frustrated, I go off social media.
The media will not deal with your problems, you will. Fix yourself! Pray! Talk to someone! A lot of times we know what to do, but still choose temporary empathy.
FORGOTTEN LOVE LANGUAGES Pt.III 🧵
Once upon a time I stormed out of mama’s house after a heated (but respectful) argument about not pursuing my legal career.
That fateful evening, I called my future wife discovered a love language I call ‘Spaces Of Vulnerability’
You can deduce from people's tweet that men are dating women they can't trust to commit to them or carry the relationship if life happens to them. You're in a relationship but you are living in fear that if something happens to your finances, you'll lose your woman to another man. So you are desperately working to ensure that never happens as if you control the universe.
You know this and you're still with her and will still marry her. Many of you opened eyes to marry nonsense. The peace you don't have now, you'll never have it.
Tomorrow, you'll say you're a victim instead of admitting you were just a fool. We accept the love we think we think we deserve.

FATHERS DO NOT ABANDON THEIR CHILDREN
We got back home after a brief drive into town to pick up some things. When we returned, Olive insisted she was not going inside the house. I walked in and closed the door, thinking she would then be prompted to come in.
I started noticing her when she liked & commented on all my stories from the very first one I posted here from way back.
It was shortly after my girlfriend passed away after a brief illness.
I was grieving & stopped writing yet everyday I woke up to series of notifications
In our office, our admin is the shortest and, unfortunately, the meanest person among us. He is rude and disrespectful to everyone except our boss, why she made him the admin we have no idea.
He constantly talks down on everyone, any little mistake he queries you…
As teenage girls, pedophiles peddled lots of myths in-order to take advantage of our innocence
Other naive girls took this narrative and spread it like virus
- Early sex will reduce menstrual pain
- Early sex will make your bum bum & breast big (teenage girls battled with

As I stood in front of our house some time ago, I noticed that there was an old cutlass close by. It was a very strong one. I told the person with me that "Kindly keep the cutlass away from the entrance". He wanted some explanation and I said to him…

A dear teacher shared the story of a man who got the opportunity to work in the same university and department that he graduated from. He was the best-graduating student in his department and he was offered both a job and an academic scholarship.

DO A FINAL CHECK
We needed a hotel to use for our guests during one of our major meetings. We decided to check out one that we had never used before. We went there some days before the conference to do a random check.
I stood helplessly waiting for the traffic light to turn green so that I could cross the road and end my life. I was mad. Not mentally. Just Mad. I wanted to run far away from home. It was beginning to suffocate me.
My stepmother came into our lives when we lost our mom with
to tell them that her husband was a thief and those hypocrites began to pray. I stood afar and was ashamed to call her a mother. I saw my father cry for the first time in my life. I will never forget and I will never forgive her. So,let me be the first to die
