August 20, 09:23like Paul, I don’t think I can ever go the whole hog with a man (as in marriage), assuming I could … I just dont think its for me. I can be in a committed relationship long term, but marriage to a man? nah, not for me

August 20, 09:44I am not “marriageable” whether to a man or a woman, I just don’t believe in the institution of marriage. Even if I were a straight man, I would still have the same convictions about marriage, so it’s clearly not for me.
I am also not a fan of kids, I have never seen myself being a parent. So I will be the hot stupendously rich man in his 50s who jogs around in the mornings with his 5 dogs!
Having said that, is it just me or does Lupita exude class? Our Chika Ike and the rest of the mgbeke Nollywood actresses need to take a page out of her book! My Opinion!!!

Money also buys independence. With time family will stop asking questions that they know the answers!
All will be well
