The 12 O'Clock Man

I attended a company sponsored training today and the passage below was a time management case study which incidentally is a real life event. 

After we’d read the passage, we were all told to draw the process of how we typically spend our time daily. It wasn't surprising to see that most of the men and some women have become '12 O'clock parents' 

The passage was written by Reuben Abati in 1994 and it was quite surprising that as far back as 19 years ago, this syndrome was already sweeping Nigerian Families.

Bittersweet Heart Break. Final Part (True Story)

After a couple of months, I moved from my family house into a beautiful BQ and got myself a lovely car. I don't know whether I was trying to heal by splashing gifts on myself but whatever it was, it worked. I stopped missing him and started enjoying myself and being happy again. I became carefree once more and for a long long time, totally removed my mind from husband things and just concentrated on living and enjoying my life. I joined a society in church, dedicated more time to work and splashed some money on some good clothes and salon. My life was back on track and it was a good life.

Bittersweet Heart Break. Part 2 (True Story)

Shortly after that, I noticed that James had become very cold and unresponsive. He even became mean to me and just wasn't acting the 'nice scattered guy' that I'd come to know and love, so, I started probing and asking him what the matter was. After a lot of talks that wasn't leading to anywhere, I told him that I guess he probably needs a break and he jumped at it. We took a break and agreed to talk again in a couple of weeks and those weeks where the worst time of my life.

Bittersweet Heart Break. Part 1 (True Story)

When I was in secondary school, I dreamt of being a wife and a mother. I desired so much to fulfil this dream that I was practically willing to marry the next guy that asks me out when I turned 30 and there still wasn't a man in sight. I didn't care what he was, I felt I could always make the best of any man that I met if only he'll ask me to marry  him. I was afraid that time was no longer on my side and I might end up never living my dream.

Hi Yimiton, How do I tell my parents I'm pregnant for a man they warned me against?

I don't even know where to start this story from, but I guess I'll have to tell it anyway. 

I met Deji 2 years ago when I was still in Unilag. He was like the most gorgeous man I'd ever seen, tall, well built and extremely handsome. I totally fell for him when we spoke for the first time, I knew I wanted to date him.

I was elated when he eventually asked me out, it was like I was living my dream. I was so in love with this guy and was proud to show him off to all my friends. I also told my parents about him and they were anxious to meet him.

Dear Yimiton, My fiance is extremely stingy. Will he change after marriage?

Hi Yimiton, I've been dating Ben (not real name) for over 3 years and 2 months ago, he proposed. I was really happy but the problem is that my fiance is so stingy, it's beginning to get to me.

Dear Yimiton, My Wife and a one night fling are pregnant and will be due almost at the same time. What do I do?

I know I've always been silly, but seriously, this is the stupidest thing I've ever done in my life and I'm so confused, I don't even know who to turn to. 

Ever since I was in secondary school, I've been known to be a lover of many women. I used to be very proud of my achievements but when I got married and couldn't stop it, I started wondering if there wasn't something wrong with me. I just can't get satisfied with sleeping with one woman at a time.

Dear Yimiton, I am so angry, I could kill my brother for defiling my little girl!

How am I supposed to forgive my 27 year old brother who has been raping my 8 year old daughter! Somebody tell me, how am I supposed to move on, knowing that my little girl has been defiled by my own brother? How am I supposed to forgive myself or my demonic brother with what has been done to my baby?

I returned from work precisely one week ago and was shocked to meet my usually happy wife, holding our little girl and crying her eyes out. She looked so sad and immediately she saw me, she completely broke down and was crying so hard and so deep, it was heart wrecking. It was so scary to see my wife in that state.

Dear Yimiton, should I encourage my sex maniac husband to have affairs?

I’ve been married 2 years with a 1 year old daughter. Life has been great aside from the fact that my husband is a sex maniac. He wants it like every minute of the day and practically cries for it when I’m indispensable to give it to him. I was 28 and inexperienced when we got married while he was 35. 

We dated for over a year without sex and for the life of me, I don’t even know how he managed through the one year because immediately after the first one awkward and painful sex week, it was all he wanted to do. I mean, we do it everywhere and every time. On an aircraft, in the car, over the phone, kitchen, in short, everywhere.

Could my dirty past be haunting me? Please help before I go crazy

Please, I seriously need advice on this issue. It's been haunting me and tearing my conscience apart since I got married 5 years ago.

After my university education, I did everything possible to ensure I got posted to Abuja and to National Assembly to be precise. I was a very pretty girl with all the right curves in the right places and I didn't want to waste that.

I knew exactly what I wanted to do at the National Assembly  I wanted to make money, lots of money and I knew that the quickest and easiest way was to date Senators. So, as a young, sexy and extremely beautiful 23 year old graduate, I set out on my journey.

Dear Yimiton, my mother hates me with a passion. Should I forget her or reach out to her now that she's old?


Mine is a very strange issue that many people may not be able to associate with.

From an early age of 5, I knew my mother detested me with a passion. She didn’t care for me like my other siblings and always treated me like trash. I used to fear her as a child and hide from her as much as I could whenever she was home. I’ll try to make myself as small as possible and always sat at the corners of the room.

I am treated worse than a maid in my Aunt's house

Dear YB readers, I really need your help on this. I'm practically becoming a shadow of myself and I don't know what to do. I feel trapped in my Aunt's house.

I am a 27 year old Economics graduate from Delta State University, Abraka. I finished service in 2010 and worked for a while in a secondary school in Enugu where I served but in 2011, I decided to relocate to Lagos to look for a better job.

I am almost too sure I'm the father of her child but she's married to another man

Am I supposed to let go and walk away or should I try to claim what I'm almost sure is mine? 

I met Adesuwa at the NYSC camp in Nasarawa state and we hit it off immediately. We became inseparable before we passed out of camp. On the pass out day, we held each other for a long time and she was in tears.

Fortunately, our primary places of assignment were quite close, so we started seeing each other again.

Announcing 'Life Issues' Page

I just launched a new page on my blog, titled 'life issues'

Life issues is a page dedicated to all issues life throws at us. Very serious issues that torch the heart will be discussed and solutions will be proffered there.

My childless Friend's husband is dating an intern in my office with the intention to have a child with her, should I tell my friend?

This is something that has been bothering me for a while. It's sending me crazy and a I need advice quickly before I make the wrong move. This problem is not particularly about me but about my friend, Jane (Not real name).

Jane has been married to Paul for 10 years without a child.  Before she got married, she dated him for over 3 years and I still remember how excited she was when he finally proposed. She couldn't stop looking at the ring and telling me how lucky she felt. She started planning the wedding immediately and it was a very successful wedding.

Confession: "I Am 24 And I Have Aborted 8 Times For The General Manager Of A Popular Radio Station in Victoria Island"

Picture credit: featurepics.com
Story By Iyabo Olaotan

It was one bright Friday morning at Finniky Restaurant, where we were having our jaw-jaw over the many activities of Reality Entertainment, publishers of your darling newspaper, Airwaves Watch.
At first, I did not know if it was the face of the Editor-in-Chief, Kazeem Popoola, or the name, which one of the familiar faces around shouted aloud that caught the attention of this pretty lady, who sat at the far corner of the restaurant.

I've been having sex with my father-in-law and can't seem to stop!

I wish I could turn back the hands of time and I wish I had never met my husband's father. This man has ruined my life because I can't get enough of his "joystick".

I know some of you are starting to think that I'm this evil person who doesn't have a heart. To tell you the truth I love my husband with all my heart but since I started sleeping with his father I can't get enough of him.

At crossroad. He still wouldn't propose after 3 years. What should I do?

Hi Yimiton, 

I read your post on 'Do I marry her or walk away after 4 years of courtship' and decided to share my experience and seek advice. 

I am 28 and had been dating for 3 years. My relationship was quite steady and I expected my guy to propose when I finished service 2 years ago. My birthday, his birthday and our dating anniversary came and went by and he still didn't proposed, I presumed he was going to propose immediately I got a job, but even this didn't happen, I knew I had to do something. So, after yet another birthday, I sat him down and told him we needed to talk.
