10 Things guys look for in a girlfriend

 
Number 10
She's Independent
No one wants a girlfriend they have to baby-sit.
Once in a while, like if she's had a rough day, it's great to be her shoulder to cry on, but if she can't seem to function without you and is constantly after you, she will eventually make you feel like you're suffocating, which is a surefire way to get you running out the nearest exit. On the other hand, if she has her very own personality and opinions, can stand on her own two feet, both financially and emotionally, and is able to enjoy time away from you -- while still missing you, of course -- then she must be a great girlfriend.
Number 9
She's Intelligent
I hate to be the one to tell you this, but the bimbo routine gets real old, real fast. A woman who can meet you at an intellectual level is a total turn-on.
Instead of being the one in total control, you'll find yourself trying to figure out what she's really thinking behind those eyes of hers -- or if
she's actually thinking at all.
An intelligent woman will constantly surprise you
and keep you on your toes. She won't let you get
bored of her. Besides, it's nice to have something to
talk about
Number 8
No excess baggage
Yeah! We guys have all come across that girl who catches our eye @ 1st inspection but a closer look reveals trust issues,daddy issues,control issues and the likes. Most guys don't know how to deal with such and would rather leave than swim in unsure waters
Number 7
She's Beautiful
I know, this one is kind of obvious, but important nonetheless. A great girlfriend will not only want to
look good for you, but also for herself. She should always look her best and be well put together. You have to be proud to have her on your arm and enjoy the sight of her in any light. And this doesn't mean that she has to be a Tiwa Savage clone.
Remember that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so if you think her full lips or large ears are beautiful, you're allowed.
Number 6
She Respects You
This is a biggie. Your woman must respect you. This means that she listens to you, even if she doesn't necessarily agree with what you're saying. And, of
course, she never tries to demean or belittle you in any way, shape, or form.
A great girlfriend won't ever cause scenes in public or in front of your friends and will always wait to discuss matters with you in private. If she respects you, chances are that she will
behave in a tactful and diplomatic manner in most situations, which is definitely a good thing.
Number 5
She Lets You Be A Man
Do not -- I repeat -- do not get involved with a woman who tries to get you to go to the salon, watch chic flicks and the likes!! You will end up resenting her more than you can imagine. A good
girlfriend lets you be a guy in all your glory, football night and all. If she's a great girlfriend, she'll even join you and your friends while watching a football match and even maybe cook a lovely meal to go .
She has to understand that men and women are different and should allow you to be yourself. Just like you wouldn't deprive her of going shopping with her best girlfriend, she shouldn't expect you to give up the guys for her.
Number 4
She's Nagless
There is nothing worse than a nag! A great girlfriend knows this and chooses her battles wisely. She knows when to speak-up and when to let it slide. You don't want a girlfriend who will give you
the heights of hell for something that isn't really worth it
Number 3
She Gets Along With Friends & Family
A great girlfriend will not only hang out
with your friends, she will enjoy it. She'll make a real effort to get to know and love the most important people in your life. And she won't try to get you to ditch your best buds. She'll actually empathize with your brother's getting
dumped and suggest that you guys take him out to cheer him up. Not only that, but your friends won't roll their eyes and moan when you mention that she'll be joining you guys. (yes, women like this do exist).
Number 2
She Loves You
If you have found a woman who loves you for who you really are and not who you pretend or try to be sometimes, you should definitely hang on to her. A
woman who doesn't try to change you is hard to find. Of course, everyone has their slightly annoying
habits that their partner has to contend with, but if she really loves you, she will be able to cope with
these. Another way to know if she really loves you is by observing the way she looks at you and treats you on an everyday basis. If the sight of you doesn't seem to faze her either way, and she doesn't really
seem to care about what you have to say, she's either playing very hard to get, or sees you as just some guy. But if a surprise visit or phone call from you makes her light up, there's no denying that she loves you.
Number 1
She Makes You Want To Be A Better Man
(Stop making that face)... Any man who has a great girlfriend or wife will tell you that she makes him want to be a better man. She doesn't have to say or do anything; it just is that way. If you suddenly feel bad about how you treated your sister or an ex or you find
yourself trying to get your self in order, you might want to think about your motivation for doing so. It could be love.
Do You Already Have Her?
So, if this list seems to describe your current girlfriend, you, my friend, are balling!. In fact, you are probably
the envy of all of your friends, even if they tease you for losing your status as «player.» However, if the woman you are dating is more like the polar opposite, then I don't think that getting serious with her would be in your best interest -- but you knew that already, didn't you?

Yoruba names for some animals & birds

This contribution answers the many questions that have always appeared as search terms on this blog for a long time. Unfortunately, I’m not equipped to answer those questions about the names of birds, animals, rodents … Such questions started appearing since the posting of What’s in a name? – A look at Yoruba’s views of some birds’ names by Deleola Daramola in June 2013. The article, a very popular one, had a mere 431 total views during the seven months of that year but would subsequently attract 1,640 views (2014); 2,868 views (2015); 2,822 views (2016) and in 2017 to date, there have been 1,872 views – a grand total of 9,633 views. There have been questions about “Yoruba name for igun”; “… hoopo bird called in Yoruba”; “… aluko and agbe birds in Yoruba culture”; “the English name of eye akalamagbo”; “What is the English of eye kowe”, and many others. At the end of the list, there are a couple of references, and more can be found through Google. PLEASE NOTE: Spellings often dif...

Tiwa Savage Files For Divorce As Husband Tee Billz Relocates To The US

If the report making rounds is anything to go by, then the troubled marriage of music superstar Tiwatope Savage and her husband Tunji Balogun Teebillz  has finally crashed after all efforts to make it work failed. Their battle was first made public in May 2016 when Tiwa Savage washed her husband’s dirty linen in an emotional interview where she talked about his battle with hard drug and other issues affecting their marriage. Though she later reconciled with him, the two seem to have finally called it quit. According to a source, Tiwa Savage has started a divorce proceeding as her husband who’s been missing in action since late last year has secretly moved to the United States. Olatunji Balogun who was previously married to a lady in the UK reportedly left his first marriage to marry Tiwa Savage who was one of the artists he was managing then. Sadly, Tiwa Savage got carried away by love without watching for the red signals. Even though her relationship with Tee Billz was not...
