Parents who think their children are the greatest!
By Bunmi Sofola RECENTLY, Frieda, the head of a leading private school, lamented that modern parents are praising their children to the hilt and bringing up their daughters as if they can do no wrong.

Your friend needs not find out what you did with her man!
COPING with the break up of a relationship you thought would last for ever, especially if you’re the one dumped, could be a living nightmare.
I caught my husband cheating, I can’t forgive him and I won’t leave!
A few months ago, I found a business card with a girl’s name and phone number in my man’s wallet. It was someone in his office and I suspected instantly what was going on. The next time he went away on his numerous business trips, I rang his usual hotel the day I knew he would leave for home.
Randy wedding ring wearers
Have you often taken time to look at married men and women around you? Check. How many are wearing their wedding rings? You would notice that in about 20 married men, only about two or three are wearing wedding rings. If you are a single lady often being ‘toasted’ by guys, you might have noticed that the ones who wear their wedding rings appear to womanise the more. Or could it be that women prefer men who are wearing wedding rings?
When the only reason you stay with a drunk is the money
Ola, Dupe’s husband, now rich – beyond their wildest dreams, has alcohol as his albatross. She doesn’t always know what type of rabbit he’ll pull out of his full magic hat of embarrassments when he’s drunk. The last I witnessed was early this year when the family had a belated New Year party. As the guests left, well fed and merrily tipsy, Ola asked his house guests and a couple of us to finish things off at a night club near the house. I would rather have preferred to go home and sleep off a throbbing headache, but Dupe’s pleading eyes made me shrug and I left with the group. Ola was a bit tanked up by now. His speech was slurred but the problem with him is that he doesn’t know when he’s had enough booze.
Relationships: I have lived with him for 19 years, will he ever propose?
My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 20 years and we have two children whom he takes full responsibility for. We’ve discussed marriage but he says with the high rate of divorce and the experience he’s had living in a polygamous home, he doesn’t want the hassle of a divorce if we ever split up. Everyone around me is married, but my man simply refuses. I feel so rejected, we don’t live together. Do you think he’s using me?
