Online dating

  Online dating can be fun, I have a name for it *harmless flirting* and just like some of us I have found myself doing it once in a while. Our feelings can be tricky and sometimes for reasons we can't fathom we end up liking the person at the other end of the line. When this happens should we rule out the possibilities of something serious cause it started on the Internet? Can we throw caution to the wind and try it out?
    Online hook ups have as many success stories as it has horrific tales.So we can't completely rule it out as bad or good. Today I am not talking about the downsides of dating someone you met online, I want to give us a little guide to a successful online hook up.
*As we can never be too careful, if you do decide to meet, make it a very public place. Meeting halfway is usually best, it's selfish for one party to travel just to hook up with someone they met online.
*Nigerian babes this is for you. Don't go and meet someone for the first time and plan to spend the night or in some cases the weekend/week. Apart from the fact that it makes you look cheap and desperate it's risky.Please also don't go asking for expensive treats on the first date. Hopefully there's more in the future*winks*.
*Start the whole thing afresh...since you both have decided it is worth it. I am sure it's worth your time too.Online profiles are mostly a bit *spiced* up ,you both need to start from the beginning so as to know the real "yous".
*If you have finally gotten over the kinks try to limit how much you use the social network on which you met your new love. ..at least for a while. The biggest problem such relationships have is suspicion,there's a certain level of insecurity social networks cause for such partners.
*And please one serious online relationship is enough for a lifetime don't make it a habit to go love searching on the Internet.
   Please remember the Internet is a big void, be careful. I hope you enjoy your weekend as I plan on enjoying mine.Comment or send me your views on Facebook www.facebook.com/Yenique9ja.

HEY!!! QUEENS

Personally I'm enjoying this "empowered and liberated"/"I'm more than my body" power tussle women are engaging in. I mean in one breathe we mention how we're empowered, liberated, not bound by traditional norms and cultures so we're free to flaunt our bodies, keyword "our" specifically to remind the men not to advise us on modesty. Then as soon as men start to objectify women and talk about how the ass looks perfect to be tapped, we jump on the train of " I am more than a body". Sis for the life of me I don't get us. What are we on about? First of all if you're a model, Onlyfans star, porn actress (and other similar careers), body activist, artiste, actress I totally understand why your full breast/ass is outside. The others though, WHAT IN THE BEJESUS HELL IS THAT? Queens forget the whole liberation talk let's face it, we have the stage. We can be out here talking about fighting domestic violence among

SELF(The Journey to being truly Altruistic).

  So   one night  last week while trying desperately to keep myself awake, I had a pep talk with myself   (more like a TED talk,  because  I was there acting like  there was a  live audience  in front of me  and being so Zen).   Well i n my usual Pep/TED talk fashion I was mouthing the words ever so peacefully, a skill I wish I have mastered in life , you see  I fancy a Zen outlook, an understanding personality and a calm voice but like most things I fancy  these are all still a work in progress, but you can say I am working .  In like manner my talk focused on something I am  also  working to be,  put  quite simply “A genuinely Altruistic Person”.    Altruistic (simply meaning unselfish ) ,  I am trying my best in all ways to be as unselfish as possible. So a part from trying to stay awake this started from hearing/seeing the phrase “focus on your own happiness” a lot more in the past week and something about that statement rings the wrong alarms in my head.    I truly get distressed

THIS THING CALLED LOVE!!!

Love, love, love...that's all a mother has for her child, what a boy hopes for in his lover, what makes him marry her, what he hopes his child feels for him...on and on and on. But what is love? A feeling of commitment?, an inexplicable joy and peace around a particular person, a tight thorny thread that you spin a circle of gold (according to Sarah Maclachlan). Whatever you feel it is love is mostly a fusion of confusing and sometimes conflicting emotions, you want it, it hurts you, you can't get enough, you wants more, you want less...on and on. Today I want to say the things love are and are not according to me, or at least to a survey I have done from personal experience.                                                    ****Love is**** *Blind: Yes just like that blind statue in all court buildings (ubi societas something something), love doesn't select, doesn't judge, doesn't see the clothes or cars. *Endless: I am not saying you don't fall out of
