There Are Still 12 Top Reasons Why Igbos And Yorubas Should Not Marry

Couples who are NOT the people I'm talking about (but who look good on my blog)

A year ago, I put up a post about the top 12 reasons why Igbos and Yorubas should not marry. One year later, the post is still getting comments from all kinds of people. Some people get the sarcasm, some people laugh, some other get angry, and some people just give me whatever insult they think is appropriate. Read and enjoy. Original post (and entertaining comments) here. ____________________________________________________________________________________   Whether you are aware of it or not, many inter-tribal relationships {Read More}

How To Know He’s A Player – Part 2

Player vs Non Player

I first told you about a sure, no-fail way of how to know he’s a player. By the way, that post sparked a debate at home as one of my beereeful readers commented and said that by virtue of Igwe putting his phone down, he’s definitely a player. Igwe in turn accused me of being a player, too because I also (allegedly) put my phone down (when it’s not night). I still have no idea what he was talking about. {Read More}

Dear Vera, My Fiancee Doesn’t Love Me

Dear Vera

Ideally, love shouldn’t be this difficult and complicated. There should be two people who are in love and marry each other to live happily ever after. But then, sometimes, this is the reality. I’ve given my opinion at the end of this post. When you are done reading, please give the reader your opinion, too. “Dear Vera. I don’t know what exactly I want but I believe your advice will work. Am in a relationship recently turned sour. We had {Read More}

For The Woman Who Is Still Waiting For Her Man

Janette ...ikz

I watched this video for the first time about two years ago. I had forgotten about it until I came across it again. It’s about a woman who is still waiting for her man. I’m sure some of you have watched it. If you have, that’s okay. But for those who haven’t watched it, or who have watched it and forgotten the message, please enjoy it again. It’s a poem by Janette …ikz, and it’s called, I will wait … {Read More}

How To Know He’s A Player

Face Up or Face Down Phone

I stumbled upon an article the other day, and I now cannot remember where. But the article listed a bunch of ways that you know he’s a player. Some of them were pretty cut and dry, but there was one that stood out to me. It’s definitely how to know he’s a player. It’s all in the phone. One way – according to this article – to know that he’s a player is by watching the way he keeps his {Read More}

Dear Vera, Where Are The Nigerian Men In Maryland?

Dear Vera

This one is a short and simple question. Though the reader is asking specifically about Nigerian men in Maryland, please answer the question generally (if you live outside Maryland) because I think Nigerian men are the same anyway for the most part. As usual, my response is below the question. “Dear Vera, I would like to ask you this – I am single and looking, so where are the Nigerian men in Maryland?” Dear Reader, Your question is neither new nor {Read More}

Dear Vera: Should I File For Him?

Dear Vera

I tweeted yesterday that I received a Dear-Vera kind of letter, which I think is my first one on this blog – kind of. She’s a reader of this blog, so I’m hoping we can help her by telling her what we genuinely think. My thoughts are below the mail. Hi Vera, first of all, I love your blog and I have been following you from your days on NVS. Although I have never called in, I have never missed {Read More}

Hol’ Up! Ryan Seacrest & Julianne Hough Are No Longer Together?

Ryan Seacrest and girlfriend, Julianne Hough

No way!! I know what you must be thinking: Oh, Vera, I didn’t know you liked them that much. Well, I don’t. I mean, I do. More like, I’m indifferent. I’m happy when I see them together because celebrity relationships are shorter than Keek videos. But these two, they’ve been together for over three years. That’s good. They cited hectic schedules as their reason for break up (sure). But there are other reports of why they broke up. Some say {Read More}

Group of men

Usually, when a relationship is over, that’s when you look back objectively and face reality. But most times, we can know these things before the relationship even starts. I culled this from Huffington Post, and I think it’s spot on! It’s a list of 10 men who will NOT marry you (and who, in my opinion, you we should not want to marry anyway). It was written by Samantha Daniels, a professional match maker and relationship expert. _______________________________________________________________________ 1.  Mr. {Read More}

Elin Woods

Elin Nordegren (formerly Elin Woods), Tiger Woods’ ex is dating again, and I’m happy to hear this – not that she cares. She’s dating her neighbor, Chris Cline who is worth only like 1.2 billion dollars. Pssshhht. Small change. And Tiger Woods is worth half a billion, just in case you’re wondering, so this is a major upgrade. She has more than doubled her potential. Chris Cline is a billionaire, a CEO, a philanthropist, a father (formerly married), and much more. {Read More}
