Red flags to look out for in a relationship

When a relationship is doing more harm to you than good, it’s time to quit it. Jumia Travel shares 4 signs to help you determine when a relationship is doing more harm to you than good.
 
Abuse
Be it physical or emotional abuse, any type of abuse is a glaring sign that you should quit the relationship. Please don’t be lenient with abuse or make excuses for it; simply let go and move on because abuse is one of the clearest ways to communicate a lack of care, love and respect for someone. Abuse does not go hand in hand with love, if anything they are polar opposites. Although, one thing to note here is that emotional abuse is more relative than physical abuse. For instance, there is arguably a degree of emotional abuse in every relationship. When you try to control your partner or influence them emotionally to act or behave in a certain way, by ignoring them (ignoring their calls, messages etc), refusing to talk to them (the silent treatment), being provocative with the other sex (trying to make them jealous) and so on, to a degree that’s emotional abuse. These are all elements of emotional abuse that are born from the very fair fact that we are human. But when emotional abuse becomes dangerous, is when you begin to lose your confidence and live in fear of what your partner is going to do to you next emotionally.

Woman begs court to dissolve her marriage over husband’s “withdrawal method” during sex

 Lagos – A 36-year-old seamstress, Sherifat Adetunji,  pleaded at a Lagos Island Customary Court that her marriage should be dissolved on ground that her husband was longer ejaculating inside her during sex. The mother of two said that her 10-year-old marriage was blissful until five years ago when things started changing.

She lamented that her husband could go a year or more without making love to her and that when he did he would not ejaculate inside her. “My husband has been starving me sexually, sometimes he will not touch me for a whole year and when he did, he would not release inside me. “I have complained severally about my dissatisfaction over his attitude towards our sexual life, but has refused to change,” she said.

What do you think?

If you marry a jealous spouse, your marriage is bound to be in trouble

A  marriage counsellor, Mrs Ola Madari has advised youngsters who are due for marriage not to marry jealous spouses. Madari, the coordinator of the Family Victory Marriage Counselling Home, said that a partner who possesses the said attribute may later become an abuser.

She said in an interview that eliminating the feelings of jealousy may be difficult after marriage. “Jealousy is one of the greatest destroyer of relationships and marriages, and the reason is that it creates feelings of anger and frustration in the one who is being accused of infidelity. “Jealousy is like poison and it already dwells in the blood; if one of the partners possesses it, there won’t be trust. “In case you are in a relationship and the man doesn’t trust you or he does not believe in whatever you tell him, please flee from such a man. “If you marry a jealous spouse, your marriage is bound to be in trouble because there will be feelings of frustration and worry. “Maintaining a healthy marital relationship is like tending to a garden; it needs lots of attention, but a jealous spouse will not raise a healthy and happy crop,” she said. Madari also advised that marriage should be based on trust, not on fear, frustration or worry. She, however, advised those who are married to jealous spouses to seek marriage therapists, who will counsel them on how to handle the issues.

kisses and their meaning

Why make so much noise during sex?!

Have you ever woken up the morning after some mind-blowing sex and think: “Why did I tell him all that stuff while we were cuddling last night?” Apparently, you’re not unique. Recent research shows that women who had an orgasm disclosed more of their positive thoughts and feeling about their partner afterward than those who didn’t climax—and they don’t feel as if they’re taking a risk by doing that. Blame it on your brain chemicals making you feel trusting.

 According to experts, an orgasm triggers the release of oxytocin, the feel-good neuro- chemical that also makes spooning (lying front to back with your partners) feet amazing. “People get loose-lipped after an orgasm because the oxytocin makes them think it’s the right time to say gooey things,” explains author Amanda Denes.

Housewife Allegedly kills Husband Over Christmas Rice in Bayelsa

A housewife, identified as Mrs. Favour Parker, has allegedly clubbed her husband, Leo Parker, to death at Ekeki, a suburb of Yenagoa, Bayelsa State capital, following an argument over last Christmas rice. The woman, who has since been arrested by the men of the Anti-Vice Squad of the Bayelsa State Police Command, according to sources, was accused by her husband of collecting N27,000 to buy a bag of ‘foreign’ rice for the family ahead of the Christmas celebration, but bought local rice at N10,000. According to a family source, though the argument over the purchase of rice and the alleged diversion of N17,000 started on December 23, 2016, the angry wife allegedly killed her husband last Saturday, following a heated argument in their room.


Though the late husband was the one responsible for buying the rice and other food items for the Yuletide celebration in line with the family tradition, it was gathered that the wife insisted on buying the commodity and other food stuff.

5 tips for couples that constantly break up and get back together

How to avoid the vicious cycle—and what to do if you get stuck in it

Some couples love to travel together, others enjoy fusion restaurants.

And then there are those couples that like to fight viciously, break up, hook up two weeks later, and then decide to get back together—until they inevitably break up again.

You probably know a couple like that. And when you’re watching the destruction from a safe distance, it’s easy to cast judgment.

But being part of a couple that can’t cut the cord can be a frustrating, alienating experience—albeit an increasingly common one.

Woman beats her fiancé with wooden plank over engagement ring.Lol

A Florida woman was recently arrested after whacking her fiancé with a wooden plank with 1-inch nails on the end, according to a report from CBS 47 in Jacksonville. It may sound like the kind of run-of-the-mill, wooden-plank-with-nails fight that two angry lovers conceivably have in Florida on a typical Tuesday, but this smackdown had an extra wrinkle: Enrevie Bendejo, 25, walloped her man after arguing with him over her engagement ring.

The report doesn’t specify exactly how the day-long dispute started, so Bendejo could’ve been pissed about the size of her rock, or the type of the stone, or even how it fit on her fingers—all important factors when deciding what kind of ring to buy your boo. We don’t know. But Nassau County cops showed up to break up a fight between the newly engaged couple, and arrested Bendejo, pictured above, after they saw her walking away from her 36-year-old fiancé with plank in hand.

We are Working to Legislate Against Early Marriages says Emir Muhammadu Sanusi II

Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II has said that the Kano Emirate Council and the government of Kano state are working towards enacting a law that will stop early marriage in Northern Nigeria. The monarch who is an ardent advocate against the practice of early marriage, said this at his investiture ceremony as the Grand Patron for Women and Children Healthcare by the United Nation’s Population Fund in Kano yesterday January 9th.

According to the Emir, the practice of early marriage has made many girls lose their lives as most of them die while giving birth at such young age.

    “Women are married in Northern Nigeria at a tender age thereby leading her to lose her life, the child and the indices are there for each state. Some people attribute the death and challenges to God but we know that God does not dislike us. Why is it that the indices are worst in the north? I call on our imams to address this. It is a shame that the UN had to come and tell us how to look after our children. We are the ones to do it and we should not wait for the UN’’ he said
