Almost every married woman is in love, but not with their husbands

For some women, marriage is their greatest support system

In some cases, only support system

If every other thing fails, marriage is the last resort

I have a friend, she is engaged, and the date for her marriage has already been fixed

Her fiance lives abroad

They just got engaged because according to her, his mum wants him to marry an Imo state girl, and she is from Imo state.

That's his reason

Hers is... You will find out soon, keep reading...

Oga lives in Germany and my friend lives in Nigeria

She is so happy, in fact, the day he proposed, she almost fainted

Not out of love, even though she claimed it is

But out of relief

Finally, she gets to leave poverty and Nigeria

Get this... She was in a relationship with a Nigerian guy

She was in love with him before German brother came into the picture and she realized it was a situationship

It took weeks to jump ship

Switched to new guy even without meaning to

Circumstances just happened

Her parents are poor and can't support her

Her ex couldn't do enough because he is a minimum wage earner

She is unemployed despite being a graduate

She is unemployed because all the places she worked, the men wanted to sleep with her

She started a business, but every entrepreneur and start-up living in Nigeria knows business is hard for a Nigerian in Nigeria under this evil administration

She was at her wits end when this new guy showed up

Now she is in love, or so she thinks

The point is

Love is self-interest not unconditional

Once a total stranger or even your enemy starts giving you all you need every time you are in need, feelings will definitely grow

Need is the seed that grows into feelings

Most people aren't getting married out of love but need necessity and survival

I don't blame them

It's survival

They don't make the decision out of free will but a need to survive and stop suffering

When they see a ring, they don't see love, they see support

Almost every married woman is in love, but not with their husbands

That's why married women are the most unhappy, forget the social media clout

A large percentage of awon married women didn't marry the man they love, they married the man who married them.

In my friend's words...

Hunger can make you think you have feelings for the person who bought you food

I hate my Job

Warning: Strong adult content 18+ I hate my job My boss, Miss Patricia, is a tyrant 40+, beautiful angelic face and even more perfect body, with a lovely smile, that she hardly uses, single mom of two beautiful teenage girls, whose pictures are hung everywhere in our offices. While her exterior is sweet and beautiful, her interior is dark and evil. Always barking orders at the rest of us, like children, her voice is so loud you wonder where she has the energy to scream in such a high note all the damn time She is so feared, her car horn is enough to immediately drown whatever noise or laughter is coming from the entire building The popular saying among us, her staff members, is that the fear of Patricia's horn is the beginning of wisdom I spent years searching for a job in the streets of Lagos, begging even, embarrassed by security men and spat at by lousy and saucy receptionists, to quit this one just like that. We die here! I was prepared to eat shit for as long as I could, so I

 Warning..... 18+ You have been warned!!! I looked at the phone in my hand for some minutes as I turned on my bed, planning my next move  The excitement of getting a new phone was eclipsed by what I was about to do So, putting on my latest expensive transparent black gown carelessly on my thin, fit and light skin body, I waltzed out of the bedroom like a woman with a goal and went straight to the house next to mine I knocked twice and listened  In minutes, I heard a voice call out... "Coming..." Then a lazy slap of feet on tiles followed, you could tell from the sound and vibration approaching the door that it was not an ordinary feet but two strong legs hitting the ground with power The door opens in slow motion and an average height, chocolate skin young man just getting past his mid 30's but still looking prime and delicious, zero beards, strong jawline and broad shoulders, sitting on a rather large chest, stood in the doorway, surprised to see a beautiful young lady i

While the torch Is lit, run with it

It’s hard to change your routine when you are a creature of habit. Habits formed from years of doing the same things over and over and over and over again. We get so comfortable with repeating schedules, we forget the magic of spontaneity and risk. The fun in chasing deals, pursuing forbidden love, romances unpersuaded or words left unsaid. Your dreams won't chase themselves. They need legs. How long are your legs. A wise man once said... Seeming is being. Stop being your own worst critic. Be your number one fan, first and your worst critic, last. You must have heard this a whole lot, life is short. Sounds like a cliché, right? You might laugh or think it's untrue, after all the world have been in existence for over 2000 years. You have also been hearing the same words since you were a child, now you are old and you are still hearing it. But think for a second, how old are you now? Was it not just a while ago you were a baby and still in your f
