"HE CHEATED AND SO WHAT!?!?!"

Hello Fabulous ones, just wanted to share with you a little dairy excerpt from a friend written in first person...

OK so I and my girlfriend were having a discussion about love and marriage, and she goes on to say that she does not believe in love. It was only fair for me to ask her in return...how she intended to settle down with a man if she did not believe in love.

Her response was quite startling...” I’ll marry for friendship, companionship and understanding”

Ok while i believe that all these things she listed are highly important and crucial in a relationship, I also believe that the person one chooses to settle with must offer something more...e.g ‘Love’

     

        BUT WHAT IS THE DEFINITION OF LOVE? To be honest, I always tell people who care to listen to me ramble, that there is no ideal definition for love. The white man has created the make-belief nonsense-whereby love is perfect and knows no wrong and sees no flaws and would never hurt you. As far as I’m concerned that a good load of crap and complete rubbish.  When did we start to think that the person who loves us will not see our flaws...do u honestly believe that the guy that loves us so dearly won’t notice when you get fat and have a few skin crisis?

Do you honestly believe that he loves you so much that he would never see an attractive woman and admit to himself that yes she is indeed attractive? 

Do you have that crazy presumption that he will still love you every single second when you piss him off and pick a fight with him? All these questions go for the guys as well not just my ladies.

Call me old fashioned but Love is not perfect and it will never be perfect, so face it! the sooner the better.  

       GUYS ARE THE WEAKER SEX and that’s been proven over time.  A guy is more likely to have sex outside his own personal relationship than a woman would. They are more likely to be tempted and fall so yea, I guess it’s safe to say...’men are weak’. But that does not mean we should not give them a chance and show them love and care.

I will never accept the statement that says..."If he loves me, then he will not look at other women. He will see only me and no one else”, If you are one of those women who have this naive ideology on relationship, you need to wake up and smell the bacon cause you are on a trip.

I am not saying that it’s OK for a guy to cheat, because believe me it’s wrong and painful but I don’t believe that when a man cheats means he does not love you.  Ok let me even use another example...For goodness sakes we commit sinful acts against God or when we disobey our parents or upset siblings... does it mean you don’t love them? Of course not!

      I know a guy, he’s married with children with a gorgeous wife whom he adores. Let me tell you, HE CHEATS ON HER (unfortunately but inevitable) but his thefirst person that would take a gun for his wife. He does not believe that there is any other woman that could have been his partner or a better mother for his children. He is even open to anyone who cares to listen that he loves his wife and no other woman can come close. To him that is love, he does not see any other person worthy of being his wife even though he cheats. Men are just weak animals but they are the best actors when it comes to appearing tough and in control.

So maybe that’s his own way of loving. Look at Hollywood and the rate of divorce in that industry alone, not to think of the whole country, it’s because they have have acquired a fairytale like definition of that word ‘love’ and when they are not getting it, they run out of the relationship searching for what they might never find.

So please lets not say love does not exist, because it does. Maybe the definition you have is ‘out of this world’. You love God and yet you don’t live your life in perfect accordance with the Bible. You love your parents and yet you disobey them so many times and fight them.

So please maybe we should check ourselves and realise that no one is perfect. At the same time, if your partner is not treating you right and yet he still cheats...Abeg! jump out of that kind nonsense relationship. LOL

"I AM SLEEPING WITH MY SISTER'S HUSBAND"

Good morning folks,
Its that time again when we deliver your weekly relationship stories that we get from our loyal NYF readers. I have been getting a lot of emails from you all and I appreciate the support, thanks! This week I bring to you another story that I believe we all can relate to because lets face it, we have all heard of the 'best friend from hell' and this situation is not different. Read on for deets...

Dear NYF,

Hi nenny, I have been reading your blog and stories and I like your relationship column the most. I decided to write you with my own personal story because I feel it is only here I can share my secret with the world.

I have had a 3month relationship with my sister’s husband and I think I might be in love with him.  The relationship started when my sister travelled abroad to have her first baby. I was the one taking care of Henry (my sister’s husband) when his wife was absent for so many months. My little sister (Val) asked me to make sure that her husband was well taken care of in terms of cooking for him and making sure the house and everything else was organised.

While she was gone, I was the one supervising the house chores because I  don’t leave too far from them, so every day before and after work, I would visit the house to bring food for him and make sure all was well.

One night after I had prepared dinner for him, Henry asked me to keep him company while he watched the soccer games.  I decided to stay because over time we had become such good friends and I was comfortable around him. I was never attracted to him because I knew he was married to my sister, he was like a brother to me.

But on that faithful night, we got talking for hours about many things including his marriage to Val, and he told me that Val’s pregnancy was so hard on her because she was cranky all the time and refused to allow him touch her. Suddenly Henry jumped on me and started professing his love for me, telling me he wanted me so bad and that I would have made a better wife than Val.

One thing led to another and we were having sex on the couch, I felt so bad but I could not resist his pleas, he was like a helpless man begging for attention that he wasn’t getting from his wife. I know I am wrong but I felt he needed love and care.

His wife is still abroad and I have almost moved into the house under the guise that I am cooking and cleaning for him. I and Henry now have sex constantly every night, sometimes he stays over at my place .  My parents don’t suspect anything because they believe I am only helping him out in the absence of my sister. But if they knew the truth I would die!

I am in love with Henry and he says he loves me too but he is married to my baby sister. I don’t know what to do because I don’t want to lose my sister who is my best friend or my Henry who I love so dearly.

Please what should I do...

Hmm I have no comment. This is a bit funny and silly...your opinions...

HOT SPOTS: SUYA n MEAT LOVERS

It's that time again when I tell y'all where to go for the best dishes...and this time is no different.
A couple of my friends were arguing on where to get the best suya in town and believe me, we could not come to a conclusion because there is quite a long list of places to go for great tasting suya.
So for all my meat lovers scroll down to get details on where next to go when your craving everyone's best snack.

Glover Court (Ikoyi): As long as you stay on the island, I advice you to visit this place, they make the best chicken suya and the price is actually decent.

Polo Club Suya (Ikoyi): I have only had this suya twice and everyday I still think of the yummy-ness that ensued when their beef suya met my mouth *licking lips*. All I can say is...if you ever get the chance to try their suya, do NOT hesitate.

University of Suya (Ikeja): The name pretty much says it all, they have some of the best suya chefs in Naija and can create an assortment of suya from beef, chicken gizzard and shaki. They have it all. Try it!

Bims (Ajah): I have never actually tried their suya but I have received great reviews from friends, it doesn't hurt to try it.

All this talk of food just got me hungry...*ordering for suya now* lol
