Woman asks the internet for advice after sleeping with her best friend, the responses were unkind
A 23 year old heartbroken woman who turned to Reddit for advice after sleeping with her best friend of ten years didn't expect the type of responses she got from the social media site. She said her bestfriend fled her house saying 'I can't do this' after they hooked up.
The woman, who did not give her name gave intimate details about her relationship with the said best friend named Paul, also 23. She said:
'Paul and I have been best friends for years. Throughout our friendship, we've flirted, but he's always been in serious relationships with someone else. I've been his shoulder to cry on throughout it all.
'Our friendship has always been strictly platonic with moments of slip-ups.'
She talked about how he had been in several dysfunctional relationships with controlling partners, saying that she had always been there for him after his breakups.
Adding:
'I was his support system. We grew very close over the next few months. We had history of cuddling and holding hands, but nothing progressed beyond that.
One night, he came over to watch a movie and he looked me in the eyes. He leaned in to kiss me when he stopped and basically ran out of my house saying 'I can't do this. It will ruin everything between us.'
He didn't speak to me for a week and got back with his girlfriend thereafter. I told him in person I couldn't do it anymore and I felt used. He responded 'Okay' and went on his marry way.He didn't even care and I was crushed.
She said she managed to rekindle her friendship with Paul but Paul had found another girlfriend who was studying overseas. She said he flirted with her but their relationship remained platonic until another one of Paul's relationship ended again.
She wrote:
'We ended up getting drunk with some of our friends and he came to spend the night at my place.
'When we got into the bed, he grabbed me and we started making out. He told me he had always had feelings for me and he likes me (...) Well, he kept pushing sex and we ended up sleeping together. When I went to fall asleep, he grabbed me and said out of all things, he would miss me in his arms.'
'He called me the next day and acted like nothing happened. He said he was just drunk and horny, but now that the sexual tension was out of the way, we could go back to being just friends. He said he doesn't remember most of the night.'
She said: 'The cats out of the bag. It's going to be very hard to see him just as a friend now that we know there's this between us.'
After reading the story Reddit users weighed in to share their thoughts, and most posters advised the young woman to end her friendship with Paul permanently. Some of the comments:
Others really didn't mince their words. Theborogrove wrote: 'HE IS MIND******** YOU. He is NOT your friend'
Gonzoimperial said: 'You're his safety girl. He's going to keep doing this until he's 35 and then he might settle for you. Please don't do this.'
Others really didn't mince their words.
'You were a booty call,' said Barntobebad, 'Sorry, but his friendship with you isn't as strong as you think, nor is his attraction.'
Damaged Damsel said: 'it's more like he strings you along so that you will always be there when he is single. Move on.'
Another wrote: 'HE IS MIND******** YOU. He is NOT your friend. He is using you to gratify he is ego.'
Some called into question whether Paul really is the poster's friend after all.
User expressed a wish for the poster to avoid being messed around by Paul any longer
One user compared the story to the novel One Day by romance writer David Nicholls
Addywoot said: 'I don't really get the feeling he's even that good of a friend to you.'
Pretendingtobenormal write: 'This is not how I would treat my best friend.'
Isayfiesta encouraged the poster to focus on herself, instead of the state of her friendship with Paul.
'The cycle will repeat as much as you let it. Take the reins back and make an intentional effort to move on with your life, whether that is dating other people or doing something to explore or improve yourself.
'A little boost in self-esteem can go a long, long way,' they advised.
MrsValentine said: 'I don't believe based on his actions that he truly cares about you as a girlfriend OR a friend.
Look, you had sex - it happens, no big deal, and at least you know how things stand now. I'd look at closing this 10 year chapter if I were you. You've got more to look forward to than being messed around by this guy for another decade.
Suckmy**** said: 'This reminds me so much of the movie/book One Day. But much less nuanced.'
Let's just hope this final Reddit user's name isn't an omen.
We’ve human abattoirs and sell human skull for N25,000 - suspect
According to Vanguard, the Oyo State Commissioner of Police, Leye Oyebade, while parading him at the state Police Headquarters in Ibadan, said the breakthrough was made by the special anti-kidnapping squad of the Command after receiving intelligence report on the activities of the suspects.
When interrogated, Kamoru said
“I am a herbalist and I do fortune charms for people. I am not the one that usually sells human parts. I buy from some people. This is my first time of engaging in this kind of business. I usually buy the human skull for N10,000 and sell it for N25,000 for those that come for fortune charms".When police searched his house, they alleged that one smoked human skull was recovered and that the suspect used coded words for different human parts. The herbalist said the words can only be decoded by their initiates, adding that “a human head that sells for N30,000 is called agbon (coconut).”
He also disclosed that the human abattoirs where the ritualist sell human parts is located at Amuloko and Kuta villages in Oyo and Osun states, respectively.
No Banking Day: Customers To Boycott Banks Today Over Excessive Charges
DO YOU SUPPORT THIS IDEA?
"Since September last year, the district head of Kura came to palace with a young girl of about 15 years, alongside with somebody from the area, whom we were told was married to him after she was converted to Islam.
I ordered for her immediate repatriation to her parents who were said to be in Bayelsa state. I ordered the Kano State Shariah commission to liaise with the assistant inspector general (AIG) zone 1 to assist in taking her back to her parents in Bayelsa, through the AIG who oversees Bayelsa axis, for her safety. In Islam, she has no right to just go ahead and decide things for herself. She is still young. She is not matured enough. And there is nowhere in Islam where such young girls can just make up their mind and give their hands in marriage just like that. It is not permitted in Islam. That is why we said she must be taken back to her parents. To my utter surprise, since from the time we ordered that the girl be taken to her parents in Bayelsa through AIG Zone 1 office, we didn’t hear anything about her. Just for us to now start hearing all kinds of stories that we are keeping her in our custody. This is injustice of the highest order.” Sanusi said when he learned that she came back to Kano after she was repatriated during the first encounter, he insisted that she must be taken back to her parents in Bayelsa. I am therefore giving an order that an investigation should immediately commence with the AIG office to know the position of things since that time we ordered for her repatriation to her parents. We cannot in anyway be more Muslims than the Prophet of Islam Muhammad, Peace Be Upon Him. We must therefore do things according to the set rules and regulations governing our religion.”he said

Wither Nigeria and The Words Of Ayo Fayose - by FFK
This was done in 1984 but it failed. I cannot run away. I am Ayo Fayose. If you hit me, you hit trouble. If I hit you, you will be in trouble. Nigeria is a free nation and this nation will not be taken for an Islamic nation. Today, I decree the return of a PDP government in 2019"- Governor Ayo Fayose, Port Harcourt, 26th February, 2016.
Ayo Fayose's words give cause for concern and I must confess that I share his views. Ever since my TED EX lecture in 2014 which was titled ''the Rise Of Islamic Fundamentalism In Nigeria'' my greatest crime, in the eyes of my detractors, is that I have fearlessly and continuously stood up to and spoken out against the evil of islamic fundamentalism and the cancer of islamist terror in our country.
Whether it be Boko Haram and its numerous facilitators and sponsors, the Fulani militias and herdsmen, the APC hidden agenda of islamisation of Nigeria or elements within the core northern ruling class who have often promoted and, in some cases openly supported and funded, terror and the cold-blooded murder of our compatriots, I have always stood against it.
This does not mean that I am anti-Muslim because I am not. I believe in religious diversity and I consider it to be a privilige to live in a plural, multi-religious and multi-ethnic nation where people of all faiths are respected and are allowed to live their lives freely. As a matter of fact I believe that our diversity is our strength and that there is nothing more beautiful than a true Muslim or a true Christian practicing their faith in accordance with their traditions. We are, after all, all children of Abraham and what binds us together is our faith and belief in one God that created the universe and that rules in the affairs of men.
What I will not accept though is the implementation of a terrorist agenda and the destruction of the lives and way of life of others by a small minority of religious zealots and ethnic bigots. I will not accept the fellowship of those that have been brainwashed and utterly possessed by the Salifist/Wahhabi philosophy which was covertly exported to much of the Sunni Muslim world by sinister and clandestine forces that reside in Saudi Arabia. I cannot abide those that kill in the name of God and that use the great faith of Islam to oppress others and force them to do their will.
Those of us that are not Muslims are not slaves in this country and neither can we ever be. Those of us that are moderate Muslims in this country and that do not share the abominable views of the Islamic fundamentalists and the islamists cannot be slaves either. Yet that does not mean that a misguided few will not attempt to impose their will on the rest of us. To this extent I wholeheartedly concur with Ayo Fayose's view that there are covert moves by some extremists that are in the corridors of power to quietly and secretly islamise our country and that they are attempting to do so with contempt and impunity. If anyone doubts that this is the case or believes that it cannot happen they should read the history of Turkey and find out how what was once a christian nation was eventually transformed into a full blown Muslim state.
The truth is that Fayose has said nothing new. I have said it many times before. I saw this coming and I warned Nigerians against it but no-one would listen. Now the scales are slowly falling from their eyes. Two events in the last few days, more than any others in recent times, have confirmed this fact. Firstly there was the horrendous massacre of over 300 people in Agatu, Benue state, a christian community, by hundreds of well-armed Muslim Fulani militias and herdsmen. In their usual way when it comes to atrocities committed by the Fulani militias, our government refused to comment on or react to the ugly incident for many days and up until there was a national and international outcry.
Secondly there was the abduction of a 14 year old Christian girl by the name of Esse from her home in Bayelsa state to far away Kano where she was kept from her parents, forced to convert to Islam, married off to an old man against her will and hidden in the Emir of Kano's palace. All efforts by her parents to see and free their daughter have failed and to make matters worse officials of both the state and Federal government have refused to intervene and rescue the little girl from the slavery and torment of her abductors.
I wonder how much more shame, injustice and indignity we have to suffer as a faith and as a people before we react to such wickedness and injustice? We have even been denied the right to protest because when we do so we are accused, quite wrongly, of being anti-Islam. Well I am not anti-Islam but I am anti-injustice. I am not anti-Islam but I am anti-wickedness, anti-ethnic and religious domination, anti-slavery, anti-fascism, anti-religious extremism and bigotry, anti-pedophilia, anti-Boko Haram, anti-Boko Haram sponsors and anti-armed Fulani militias and herdsmen. I am anti-anything that brings blood, sweat and tears to my people and anti-anyone that kills, steals and destroys my nation and my compatriots.
I am anti-the dark forces from hell who have plagued our people with their unadulterated violence and their religious and ethnic intolerance over the years and who erroneously believe that they own Nigeria. The days of remaining silent out of fear of reprisals and insults or in the name of political correctness are long over. If I am the only voice left in Nigeria to do so I will continue to speak out and stand against this evil. I will also speak out against the notoriously indifferent, lukewarm, cowardly and stoic disposition of those amongst us who appear to be happy to be the victims and who are ready to accept this barbarity and live with it.
No matter what I will not bend from this course, I will not flinch and I will not compromise. I will not run away from my calling and doing that which the Living God has called me to do. I would rather we redefine Nigeria than sit by silently as my people and those that share my faith are slowly and systematically turned into slaves by a tiny minority.
The situation in our country today gives cause for concern and raises many questions about precisely where we are heading. The assertion that Fayose has made compels us to ask, whither Nigeria? And there are many other troubling events that give us cause to ask the same question.
Consider the following. Thousands of IPOB members and Biafrans are regularly slaughtered by our security agencies. We must ask, wither Nigeria? Thousands of Shia Muslims are murdered in cold blood and regularly tormented by our Armed Forces. We must ask, whither Nigeria? Thousands of Middle Belters and southerners are regularly raped, abducted and butchered by Fulani militias and herdsmen. We must ask, whither Nigeria? Thousands of ordinary working class northerners are regularly massacred by Boko Haram. We must ask, whither Nigeria?
Yet all hope is not lost and we must not despair. I am glad that President Muhamnadu Buhari has said that our country will not join the military coalition of Islamic nations that Saudi Arabia is putting together. This is a welcome development that has allayed the fears of many but it is clearly not enough and he must go further.
The next step that he must take is to properly address the agitation for Biafra and attempt to make life a little easier and better for the people of the east. He must acknowledge the fact that self-determination is an inalienable right and that the only way to forge national unity is by consensus and the enthronement of equity and justice and not by state-sponsored tyranny and the spilling of blood.
He must accept the fact that when you beat a child for long enough one day he will stand up, say ‘’enough is enough’’, rise up in his own defense and beat you back. It is time for us to stop beating those that call themselves Biafrans and to stop regarding Biafra as a dirty word. It is time for us to enter into a meaningful dialogue with them rather than subject them to insults and opprobrium.
It takes nothing from Nigeria if and when we make these concessions. As a matter of fact the contrary is the case: it would simply confirm our humanity and reaffirm our sense of justice and decency. Whether those that hold the levers of power in our pathologically conservative and obsessive ruling class wish to acknowledge and accept it or not, today's reality is that Mr. Nnamdi Kanu, rightly or wrongly, has become a hero to millions of young Igbos all over the world. His name is etched in their hearts and memories.
Like Che Guevera and Fidel Castro of old he brings the hope of a new and better life to an aggrieved and abused people and a new generation. He is viewed by the majority of his kinsmen as the emancipator of an oppressed region and the champion of their collective aspirations and dreams. Simply put he has been transformed and elevated into the status of a living symbol: a symbol of the their deep yearning for liberty and freedom.
We can be rest assured that the seed that he has planted in the psyche of the Igbo youth is here to stay. As each day passes it grows bigger and stronger and it becomes more and more irresistible. The appropriate response to the agitation for Biafra is not the forceful establishment and implementation of an insidious and relentless religious and ethnic agenda which is designed to hold Nigeria together by force because this will not work. Instead it is a display of maturity, understanding, moderation, equity and fair play in all matters touching and concerning governance and the running of the Nigerian state. A better understanding and appreciation of this most basic of all principles will bring more stability to our country and more joy to our people. Indeed it is the only way to guarantee our peace and it may well buy a united and indivisible Nigeria many more years.
Permit me to end this contribution with an insighful and timely word from Mr. Babatunde O. Gbadamosi who is an.outstanding public commentator from an illustrious and distinguished lineage. On 28th February he wrote the following on his Facebook wall:
Photos: Knife-wielding man slashes at children outside a primary school in China before killing himself
Ten children were seriously wounded when a knife-wielding assailant hacked at them in a Chinese school on Monday, February 29, before killing himself. The incident took place in Haikou, in the southern island province of Hainan, as school pupils were lining up to go home at the end of the morning session.
According to China News Service, the man struck, slashed at several children before fleeing. A woman passerby saw several children with their faces covered in blood, apparently from head injuries, being bandaged up.
The victims were six boys and four girls, the report said. They were severely wounded but not in life-threatening condition.
"I thought my child would be safe at school; I didn’t think something like this would happen," the mother of Liu Qiang, told the Nanhai Online news portal at the hospital where her 7-year-old son was being treated.
Barcelona vice-president slams Ronaldo comments
Barcelona vice-president Jordi Mestre has criticised Cristiano Ronaldo for blaming Real Madrid's La Liga woes on his team-mates, claiming none of the Catalan club's players would ever do the same.
Madrid slipped to a 1-0 defeat to city rivals Atletico on Saturday thanks to a second-half strike from Antoine Griezmann.
That result, combined with Barca's 2-1 win over Sevilla on Sunday, leaves Madrid in third place, 12 points adrift of Luis Enrique's leaders.
And Ronaldo was quick to point the finger at his colleagues following their loss at the Santiago Bernabeu, saying "if everyone was at my level, perhaps we would be first".
Ronaldo has since attempted to clarify his comments, insisting he was referring to the club's injury situation and not performances.
However, Mestre told Movistar : "Our team's players would never say what Cristiano said. The club monitors a lot of things before signing players.
"Honestly, I could not imagine one of our players saying what Cristiano said."
Asked about Barca's commanding eight-point lead over Atletico at the top, Mestre added: "La Liga is not won at the end of February. That's not a cliche, it's true because we could slip up and I'm sure Real Madrid will bounce back. There are no free meals here."
