[Please Advice] One Year of No Sex With My Wife - Should I Consider Divorce?

Posted: 21 Apr 2014 11:06 AM PDT


I'm a 30 year old man, I've have been together with my wife for about 6 years and 3 years married. No kids, no house. The upcoming July will mark the 1st year anniversary of Not having sex. I can tell you that before that 1 year mark, sex was maybe once every 2 weeks.


Would have liked to have it more often but it satisfied me. And every time i initiated it, adding to it, about 90% of the time i ALWAYS initiated the courting. I remember getting into arguments about who initiates it first (ridiculous).

**A side note to women**- Its a misconception to assume that every man likes to be dominant in sex and to be always initiating it, thats not Entirely true. As a man, it pleased me when my wife desired me and approached me for sex. Its sad that things are not the way it used to be. I've never cheated and nor do i plan on it. And its sad that i know that its almost going to be a year without sex with my wife.

Divorce has been on my mind, and continuous to make an appearance in my thought from time to time. Im glad i found this thread. Let me know what you think. I'll be gladly to answer to any comment or question.

They Met on Twitter and Got Married Soon After - 2Shotz and Wife, Precious on Marriage

Posted: 21 Apr 2014 08:22 AM PDT


Rapper 2Shotz, real names William Orioha and his wife Precious have revealed their love story and marriage so far, how they met on twitter, and how she never knew who he was until they started dating. Enjoy...


How long have you been married?

2shotz: We have been married for a year. We got married April 12, 2013.

How did you meet?

Precious: I met him on Twitter. I can't remember who followed who first, but I remember he put up a picture of his apartment and I commented without knowing who he was. He thanked me and we got talking. We moved the conversation from Twitter to phone, then to Skype. I was in Ireland, came to Nigeria for Christmas and we met in person.

2shotz: I went to see her at a restaurant in Ajao Estate, Lagos. We had been talking on phone for a while before then. We ate, I went to drop her at home. Her family and friends knew who I was. Apparently, she did not know me until they started to hail me. Later, we went to a bar, had drinks there and we just clicked. It was not planned neither did I have it in mind that this was what I wanted to do. At that time, I was not trying to be in a relationship.

What were the qualities that attracted you to him?

Precious: I was eating when he walked in for our first date and I was put off by his bald head and beard. People say guys with such looks are not good and I felt was trouble. Even though I had seen him in pictures, seeing him up close was quite different. But I found him to be very sweet.

2shotz: I like dark-skinned women and like I said earlier, I was not looking for a relationship. She is dark-skinned and her attitude was nothing like that of the average girl. What really got me was when we went to church for the crossover service and there was a prayer point about getting husbands and wives. While the prayer was going on, I was not praying but she held my hand and prayed. Nobody had ever done that to me.

How long did you date?

2shotz: We did not date for too long.

How have you coped with fame?

Precious: When I found out who he was, I was not exactly comfortable with it. First of all, he was not my ideal man. In my line of work as a medical scientist, I was looking for a guy who had a nine-to-five job. But I fell in love. Besides, you don't always get what you want, not because it is not right for you but because God has other plans for you. I was not looking for an artiste because my father is one. He played with Oliver De Coque and my mother used to tell me stories of how he changed women.

At some point we broke up and some of his close relations and manager talked to me on why I should not walk out of the relationship. When we first met, he had so many girls around him and I wondered where my place was in the multitude. As far as coping with his stardom is concerned, I just go with the flow. It's fun and I get to meet a lot of celebrities. I take pictures with them and my friends in Ireland think I am living the life in Nigeria.

Are you musically inclined?

Precious: I was the choir leader of my church and I am into gospel music. Notwithstanding, we discuss his music and from time to time, he likes to get my opinion on songs.

Was there any opposition from your families?

Precious: I would not really describe it as opposition because my father is an artiste. He asked him why he wanted to marry me. In fact, that was the first time my father spoke Pidgin English to him. I just felt he was right for me even though it was not what I had been praying for.

Can you remember the first time you met with his parents?

Precious: His father actually critiqued what I wore. It was during the Christmas season and I wore black. As soon as I came in through the door, his father said I ought not to have worn black and should have gone for white and red.

How would you describe being married?

Precious: It has been good and different because you have this person who is always telling you what to do. It took me time to get used to having to submit wholly. In Ireland, I started making my own money at age 16 and by the time I was 18, I had my own apartment. I had become used to being independent.

You had to relocate to Nigeria…

Precious: It was not an easy decision because my family is in Ireland and I miss them. I am glad I am here for a good reason and learning to be a wife. It's great to be together in one place.

What has marriage taught you?

2shotz: I have learnt a lot of things they just never tell you. There is no interesting thing about being married except for the companionship and it saves you some money. You no longer have to eat out and you don't have to spend money on a couple of girls. Now, it's just your wife. It also prevents you from doing some things that are either promiscuous or unnecessary.

When you quarrel, who is the first to apologise?

2shotz: Anybody apologises.

Precious: It is not anybody. He is stubborn and does not believe he is wrong. He thinks because he is older than I am, he is never wrong. His favourite sentence to me is, 'I am telling you this because I have the experience.'

Is there anything you would like to change about each other?

2shotz: Her mouth. You know how women talk, they are never satisfied.

Precious: That I don't like certain things about him does not mean I can't live with it. But I will like him to be less stubborn. He is an Igbo man who is deeply rooted in the Igbo culture which makes him think in a certain way. At times, he is not willing to bend the rules just to make it happen. I am just learning the values and tradition of my people.

[Poll] Beyonce’s Little Half-Brother Is Homeless - What Would You Do?

Posted: 21 Apr 2014 03:00 AM PDT


Alexsandra Wright made earlier pleas for the public to help save her and her young son, Nixon Alexander Knowles, whom she had for Matthew Knowles, Beyonce's father, from becoming homeless. Now, they have been evicted from their home with their belongings to go into storage as they move to a shelter until further notice.


So what happened was that after paying hefty child support for a couple of years, Matthew Knowles complained that he was broke to a judge, who had the child support payments substantially reduced and backdated. This meant that Knowles was no more obligated to make further payments for the next two years. The former mistress had been living the high life on the higher payments and now cannot meet up.

These photos of her crying and her son on the street while she packs up their belongings seem very sad but one wonders if she did not bring it on herself? But some may ask, Beyonce has more than enough, and the boy is still her brother, surely she could help them out?

What do you think, and what would you do if you were the one? Would you cater to (pay the expenses or take in) a child your married father, brother, husband or other male relative had with a woman not his wife?

A West African King, Mansa Musa of Mali, Listed as the Richest Man in History

Posted: 21 Apr 2014 12:00 AM PDT


Mansa Musa I, a West African King of the 14th century, has been named the richest person in history in a new inflation-adjusted list of the world's 25 wealthiest people (above is a video game representation of the king which shows what he may have looked like in the 1300's). The list spans 1,000 years and shows a combined fortune of $4.317trillion, with only three of the list's 25 being alive today; none of them women and 14 of them American.


Mansa Musa I was named the richest person in history for having had a personal net worth of $400billion at the time of his death in 1331. Born in 1280, he ruled West Africa's Malian Empire which covered modern day Ghana, Timbuktu and Mali. His country's production of more than half the world's supply of salt and gold contributed to Musa's vast wealth, which he used to build large mosques that still stand today.

According to the writings of Arab-Egyptian scholar Al-Umari, Musa inherited his throne through a practice of appointing a deputy after the king goes on his pilgrimage to Mecca; later naming the deputy as heir.
Musa was appointed deputy of the king before him, who had reportedly embarked on an expedition to explore the limits of the Atlantic ocean, and never returned.

Just two generations after his death, however, Musa's world record net worth was diminished after his heirs were not able to fend off civil war and invading Arabian and European conquerors.



The list also includes Andrew Carnegie (top left), John D. Rockefeller (top right), Mayer Amschel Rothschild (bottom left), and Cornelius Vanderbilt (bottom right).

Full list below...

1. MANSA MUSA I – $400 BILLION (BORN 1280)
2. ROTHSCHILD FAMILY – $350 BILLION (BORN 1744)
3. JOHN D ROCKEFELLER – $340 BILLION (BORN 1839)

7. WILLIAM THE CONQUEROR – $229.5 BILLION (BORN 1028)
8. MUAMMAR GADDAFI – $200 BILLION (BORN 1942)
