Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / Reason Why Some Women Cheat Revealed |
on: 30-08-2013 09:15 AM
| First and foremost, the woman must feel that she is under-appreciated, neglected, or ignored. -A Woman who felt more like a housekeeper, financial provider, or nanny than a wife or girlfriend is more susceptible to finding an external situation, which brings attention and appreciation for who she is rather than the functions that she performs. Secondly, the woman must be craving intimacy as women feel valued and connected to their partner through non-segxwal emotional interaction like touching, kissing, cuddling, gift-giving, being remembered, and meaningful communication. -If they are unable to get their intimacy needs fulfilled by a primary partner may look elsewhere and try to meet the needs through segxwal/romantic relationships. Lastly, the woman could be bored or may be lonely. -Women, who find themselves alone at home for long periods of time, can feel that their lives lack meaning, and they could use casual sex or deeper romantic affairs to fill the void inside their lives. As with the case of Women with spouses or partners who are absent for long periods of time for example military service, may also turn to affairs to fill what feels like an emptiness. http://www.worldgist.com/reasons-women-cheat-revealed/ | | |

| “Prison Break” star actor Wentworth Miller (Michael Scofield) has publicly revealed he’s a gay. Pheeew!!! Looks like the ladies have lost another ‘hot dude’ to the guys….lol. Can’t wait to see his boyfriend. He replied a letter the director of the St. Petersburg International Film Festival sent him, he rejected its invitation to Russia for the event. “Thank you for your kind invitation. As someone who has enjoyed visiting Russia in the past and can also claim a degree of Russian ancestry, it would make me happy to say yes. However, as a gay man, I must decline.” “I am deeply troubled by the current attitude toward and treatment of gay men and women by the Russian government.” “The situation is in no way acceptable, and I cannot in good conscience participate in a celebratory occasion hosted by a country where people like myself are being systematically denied their basic right to live and love openly, if circumstances improve, I’ll be free to make a different choice.” http://www.worldgist.com/prison-break-wentworth-miller-michael-scofield-gay/#sthash.28GVB8YQ.dpuf | | |

| A 19-year old fan ran into the pitch during the Real Madrid Vs Chelsea match in the 67th minute to embrace Cristiano Ronaldo, only to be arrested by the police and jailed for trespassing and disorderly conduct. Gjoka spent the night in prison and said “Honestly, first thing was look straight, find Cristiano and don’t look back. Just go.” “I decided to add a little knee slide on it just for a little celebration. I think Ronaldo always does that celebration so I thought that he would find it funny, and he did, he gave it a little laugh. “But after that, I gave him a big hug, told him you’re one of my biggest idols, always followed you and I said, ‘Please, Ronaldo, don’t let the cops take me,’ and that’s when Ronaldo gave me a very big hug. Well, a golden opportunity like this comes but once. http://www.worldgist.com/football-fan-jailed-hugging-cristiano-ronaldo/#sthash.oisOlgZk.dpuf | | |

| Pastor Alao Shobowale aged 42 appeared before Ebute Meta Magistrate, Lagos, for allegedly molesting a 12-year-old girl. The prosecutor, R. Odigie, said that the offences were committed on December 15, 2012 at about 10 p.m. at the defendant’s residence. Mr. Odigie said that the girl lived with her aunty in the same compound as the defendant. The girl’s aunt noticed her absence from her room at about 9:30 p.m. and began searching the compound by calling her name but with no response. “She went to the toilet, which is detached from the building, and discovered the girl and the defendant in it,” Mr. Odigie said. “The accused lured her from the common passage we share in front of our apartment to the toilet while my wife, I and our three children were inside.” Magistrate Oyindamola said the matter would be referred to the family court “in the interest of justice.” http://www.ngnewspapers.com/girl-12years-molestd-42-years-white-garment-pastor/ | | |

on: 5-01-2013 04:39 PM
| N17.6bn Relief Funds were released in 2012 for flood victims. Some victims in Adamawa laid hands on N450 Each. In some states, the N17.6billion flood relief funds released by the federal government to bring succour to the victims, who had been sheltered in camps, has ended up in the private pockets of officials of committees and emergency outfits vested with the responsibility of managing their states’ share of the funds. Some of these victims got between N450 and N3,000 compensation for losing their houses and farmlands to the floods. It is also a shock that collation of the data of the victims of the disaster is still ongoing, three months after the President Goodluck Jonathan administration released the relief funds on October 9, 2012. http://www.ngnewspapers.com/woe-adamawa-flood-victims-n450/ | | |

on: 13-12-2012 10:09 AM
| A young pastor have been admitted in a hospital in Kakamega after he was badly injured by an angry husband who caught him red handed sleeping with his wife. The two had come from an evening service from the church when the woman, who is the youth leader in the church, invited the pastor to her house for a cup of tea. The husband came home on that night raging with fury and ready to devour whomever he found in his house, even if it was his blood brother. He arrived at around 11pm and noted that the front door was locked. Luckily, he had spare keys for the back door. As he was getting into the house, the two sensed danger and the preacher ran out through the front door and sprinted to his house, which is in the neighbourhood, half Nood. The angry man did not give up. He followed the preacher into his house and fished him out with the help of his brothers. “When we caught him, he couldn’t say anything in his defense as even his wife was still crying at the mistreatment and shame he had exposed her to,” one of the brothers said. The pastor, a father of two’s silence made the brothers beat him senseless with kicks, bows and sticks. “This is not the first time he has been caught with someone’s wife. He is used to bedding many who attend his church,” one eyewitness said. The preacher was rushed to Mbale District Hospital, where the doctors referred him to another hospital in Kakamega town where he is still recuperating. http://www.ngnewspapers.com/pastor-caught-bed-female-youth-leader/ | | |
