A woman woke up during the night to find that her husband was not in bed.
She puts on her dressing gown and goes downstairs to look for him.
She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a hot cup of coffee in front of him.
He appears to be in deep thought, just staring
at the wall.
She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip of his coffee...
"What's the matter, dear?", she whispers as she steps into the room.
The husband looks up from his coffee, "I am just remembering when we first met 20 years ago and started dating. Do you remember back then?", he says solemnly.

The wife is touched to tears thinking that her husband is so caring, so sensitive.
Yes, I do", she replies.
The husband pauses.
The words were not coming easily.
"Do you remember when your father caught us in my car?"
'Yes, I remember", says the wife, lowering herself into a chair beside him.
The husband continues.
Do you remember when he shoved the shotgun in my face and said,
"Either you marry my daughter, or I will send you to jail for 20 years?""
'I remember that also", she replies softly.
He wipes another tear from his cheek and says...
"I would have been released today if only I took the right decision!
*And the fight started

TAKE S£X OUT OF THE EQUATION… AND WHAT’S LEFT?

Most men don’t ask themselves this question until it’s too late. They chase a woman, win her over, sleep with her, and suddenly realize she brings nothing else to the table but her body.

Let’s be real: If s£x is the only thing keeping you interested, you’re already losing.

THE HARD TRUTH ABOUT MODERN WOMEN

Most women have been conditioned to believe that their looks are enough. They invest hours in makeup, filters, and gym selfies… but put zero effort into being valuable beyond their physical appearance.

Ask yourself:

Does she inspire you or drain you?

Does she bring peace or problems?

Can she hold a conversation beyond gossip, drama, or trends?

Does she have any skills that benefit your life, or is she just a liability?

Men get blinded by lust, only to wake up stuck with a woman who adds nothing but stress, expectations, and demands.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU STOP CHASING SEX?

The moment you take sex off the table, you’ll see women for who they truly are.

You’ll notice how many lack emotional depth.

You’ll see how many can’t hold a conversation that isn’t about themselves.

You’ll realize how few actually bring value to a man’s life beyond their looks.

This is why high-value men choose carefully.

They don’t get hypnotized by a pretty face. They watch how she moves, listens to what she says, and studies what she brings.

If the only thing she offers is her body… she’s replaceable.

THE MINDSET SHIFT YOU NEED

Stop chasing beauty. Start demanding substance.

Stop being impressed by her looks. Start testing her character.

Stop thinking with your emotions. Start thinking with your standards.

A man who controls his desires controls his future. Choose wisely, or pay the price.

Did you know Brazilian legend Ronaldinho once lost a $750,000 deal with Coca-Cola because he took a sip from a Pepsi.🤔

There was this girl in my class when I was in Junior secondary school.

Her name is Tope.

Tope was fine.

I mean like fine-fine.

She had this smile that could make a pastor forget his sermon.

But there was a problem.

She was Yoruba and I was… let’s just say my Yoruba was on the same level as a toddler who just learned how to say “mama.”

But I wasn’t going to let a little thing like language stop me.

I mean, how hard could it be?

I’d heard Yoruba all my life, especially from my neighbors who loved to gossip in it.

I figured I could just string a few words together and Tope would be so impressed.

So she would forget every other guy in our class existed.

So, I started my journey.

I practiced for days.

I even downloaded a Yoruba dictionary app.

Yes, that’s how serious I was.

My plan was simple:

I’d walk up to her, say something smooth in Yoruba, and she’d fall head over heels for me.

Easy peasy, right?

The day finally came.

I saw Tope sitting alone during lunch break and I thought, “This is my moment.“

I walked up to her as my heart pounding like a talking drum.

I cleared my throat and put on my most confident face.

As soon as I got to her, I said: “Mo fe lo si baluwe.”

The look she gave me was one I’ll never forget.

Her eyes widened and then she burst out laughing.

I stood there confused and thought: “what did I say wrong?”

Until she finally managed to say, “Do you even know what you just said?”

Turns out, instead of saying, “I want to take you out,” which is what I thought I was saying.

I had actually said, “I want to go to the bathroom.”

Yes o!

I had just told my crush that I wanted to go and use the toilet.

I wanted the ground to open and swallow me whole.

Being the kind soul that she was.

She tried to stop laughing long enough to explain my mistake.

She even taught me the correct way to say it: “Mo fe gbe e jade.”

But by then, the damage was done.

The whole class heard about it and for weeks, people would walk up to me and say, “Mo fe lo si baluwe” before bursting into laughter.

That day I learnt not to try to be what I’m not just to impress someone.

If I had just been myself and spoken English.

I would’ve saved myself a lot of embarrassment.

Tope later told me she actually liked my confidence even if my Yoruba was a disaster.

Always be authentic and don’t let fear of looking silly stop you from shooting your shot.

Happy new week!😋😋

Good morning!

THE NIGHT OF BETRAYAL
Episode-1

It was supposed to be a night of celebration, a reunion of five inseparable friends who had been through thick and thin together. They had met in college, bonding over late-night pizza, grueling exams, and endless laughter. After graduation, they had vowed to remain close, no matter where life took them.

The group consisted of Alex, the charismatic leader; Emma, the compassionate listener; Jack, the witty jokester; Sarah, the ambitious go-getter; and Michael, the quiet but loyal friend. They had been each other's rock, supporting and encouraging one another through life's ups and downs.

But on this particular night, something felt off. They had planned to meet at their favorite restaurant to celebrate Alex's new government job. Emma, Jack, and Sarah had also landed government positions, thanks to Alex's connections. Michael, however, was running late, citing traffic as the reason.

As the night wore on, the group's conversation turned from excitement and congratulations to complaints and gossip. They discussed their new jobs, the perks, and the challenges. But as the conversation flowed, it became clear that they had all forgotten about Michael.

"Hey, has anyone heard from Michael?" Emma asked, breaking the silence.

The group exchanged awkward glances. "Oh, yeah, he's just running late," Alex replied, dismissively.

But as the hours ticked by, Michael's absence became more pronounced. The group's laughter and chatter began to feel hollow, and the atmosphere grew tense.

It wasn't until Michael finally arrived, looking exhausted and frustrated, that the group realized their betrayal. They had forgotten about their friend, leaving him to feel unimportant and neglected.

"Hey, guys, sorry I'm late," Michael said, forcing a smile.

The group's response was awkward, with half-hearted apologies and excuses. But Michael saw right through them.

"You guys have changed," Michael said, his voice laced with disappointment. "You've all gotten these great jobs, and you've forgotten about me."

The group fell silent, knowing that Michael was right. They had let their own successes cloud their judgment, and they had betrayed their friend.

As the night drew to a close, the group realized that their friendship was at a crossroads. They could either make amends and work to rebuild their bond or let their relationships fade away.

The night of betrayal had been a wake-up call, a reminder that true friendship requires effort, empathy, and loyalty. As they parted ways, the group knew that they had a long road ahead of them to repair the damage and reclaim their friendship.
