Feyinti’s Dilemma

Welcome to Limitless!  The story you are about to read is fiction. Enjoy❤️ I closed my eyes and stood with my hands wrapped around my stomach. The cold shower was doing a good job in keeping my mind engaged. Memories of when I first met him started playing out. I still remember it like yesterday. He was a new student in my secondary school.  I had heard of a new student being in school the day before and how girls were fawning over him but I paid no attention. Seeing him on the assembly ground the next day made all sorts of feelings start running through me. Immediately our eyes met, I felt a very loud thump in my chest. My heart was racing and I could feel my palms getting colder. I had never felt that way towards any guy. He was wearing jean trousers, a white t-shirt and a red jacket because he had not yet collected his uniform. He was so handsome, in fact, the most handsome boy I had ever seen. I had to take my eyes off him when I saw that he caught me staring again.  We were in SSS

The Opposite of Love

Image
Hello guysssssss!!! Welcome back to Limitless! Whoosh! These past two weeks has been a rollercoaster of emotions. I didn’t publish an article last week because I was just too sad and angry at everything that has been happening. It started with a clamor for change. The cry for an end to police brutality transitioning into a call for accountability. It’s so unfortunate that we got bullets and indifference in return.  The Lekki Massacre is still something I think about, and try to reason why some group of individuals would want to harm people. The heart of man indeed is desperately wicked. I mean, you didn’t spray water on them even if you wanted to be mean. Live rounds of bullets! Wickedness. We can never forget! 20th October, 2020! Then, the President came to speak and showed no empathy or acknowledgement for the lives that were lost at the Lekki Toll Gate? A democratic government indeed. Today, let’s talk about the opposite of love. I’m sure you are already wondering what else the oppo

SARS BRUTALITY- 3 men share their experiences

Image
Welcome to Limitless!  This week has been rough as memories of experiences some of us have had with men from the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) keeps coming, forcing us to start protests and trend hashtags.   SARS officers profile youths based on appearance. They harass people who have piercings, dreadlocks, tattoos, or who are using expensive gadgets and cars. They conduct stop and search by the road, even barge into apartments of youths to search without search warrants. These officers are meant to protect us from robbery or concentrate on the robbers. Instead, we see these men killing and being cruel to Nigerian youths for reasons that don’t even sum up. They have been accused of murder, theft, unlawful arrests, unlawful detention, extortion, rape and humiliation.  If you’ve never had a personal experience with SARS, I’m sure you know someone who has. In previous years, the Inspector General of Police had approved the disbandment or reform of this unit. All to no avail, we’ve see

Crazy catcalling and random toasts experiences

Image
Hiiiii! Welcome to Limitless! I hope you are having a lovely weekend!  Catcalling and random toasts! What do guys even gain from catcalling? I mean, can’t you be a gentleman? Must you be razz ? Also, guys that just randomly start wooing  or ‘toasting’ girls along the road. What’s their purpose in this life?๐Ÿ˜‚ Catcalling is that silly thing guys do when ladies are passing and they whistle or start shouting ‘heys fine girl’ ‘look at us now’ ‘we are calling you now’. I’ve had a handful of these and I’m certain other ladies can relate too. I’m sure most guys too know what is going on!   Why do these street guys even do that? I’ve never seen any ‘tush’ guy behave that way to be honest. Okay, maybe in school by the way when guys are in groups and they are catcalling from their hostels. Rascals. I think random toasts are prevalent everywhere but then, how will a guy with  blood-shot eyes just get the morale to approach a prim and proper lady? This life is a pot of beans!๐Ÿ˜‚ 6 ladies share thei

5 ways to get over a breakup

Image
 Hello and welcome to Limitless! I hope your weekend is going well.  A couple of weeks ago, I deemed it fit to throw an open question on how to get over a breakup. Thankfully, some people who have been through it revealed how they got over theirs. Thus, I took bits and pieces from that plus what I’ve seen to be able to deliver this to you. I’m telling you this so you won’t think these tips are far fetched or have never happened.  Meanwhile, everyone is wired differently. What works for me might not work for you. We all have diverse ways we react to handle situations. Nevertheless, I’m very sure at least 3 of these tips will be able to help you get over a breakup.  1. Channel your mind towards something else This simply means taking your mind off them and focusing on something else. You might want to ask me how? It could be starting that business you’ve been saying you’d start but you’ve not. It could be spending more time on your hobbies- writing, drawing, knitting and so on. It could

Jilted in a weather for two

Hellooooooo!!! Welcome to Limitless. I’m sooo excited to see you here again! I hope you are having a nice weekend.  Today, I’m gonna be telling you the story of how I got jilted๐Ÿ˜‚. The same heart that had flutters got shattered! Premium tears, guys! Sigh.  In case you don’t know, I’m a hopeless romantic. I love romance movies, romance books, romance stories and all things romance. So, you can imagine how much I would love all what I watch and read become a reality for me.  That’s how on this cool day, I was going through my phone and a message from an unknown number suddenly popped up.  Sweetheart, it’s not all these annoying texts that you get and you block the person instantly๐Ÿ˜‚. Immediately I saw this one ehn I was just like ‘wow, I’ve not even talked to you yet and you are giving me flutters already, okayyy!’ So, we started texting almost everytime. I text or call him any free time I get and he does too. He is not like all these people that just leave you to guess why they are not

 I feel like doing giveaway.๐Ÿ˜‚ Drop your account details if you’ve been reading the posts on Limitless.๐Ÿ˜‘ Na small joke o. Hehe๐Ÿ˜‚.  Hello my highly esteemed friend. How are you doing? How was your week? I hope you had a good one. If yours wasn’t too good. Take time from this weekend to relax! You are doing that already by the way. Welcome to Limitless! Today, we’ll be discussing a very crucial topic that I think is becoming more prevalent. We really need to address this topic on Commitment Issues, diving into the signs, causes and solutions. So, shall we?  Let me start with a little story. I have a friend who was so into this particular girl. He had feelings for her and was beginning to fall head over heels. They do all the romantic stuff, play together, the vibe was flowing. So, it got to a particular time when the girl was starting to think she was just a play thing because the guy wasn’t asking her to be his girlfriend or talking along those lines and they’ve been at it for about 6

A Snake in my room!

Hello my fellow gist lover๐Ÿ˜‚. Welcome back to Limitless How are you doing? I hope you are well and alright.  I still get creeps and goosebumps when I think about this particular day! You guys! I saw a snake in my room!๐Ÿ˜ฑ  This particular day, my mum sent me to put something in the freezer which is in the passage close to my room. Immediately I closed the lid of the freezer, I just saw something moving towards my room with my peripheral vision. To be honest, I can be an alarmist and a dramatic person. This day was no different.๐Ÿ˜‚ I didn’t even wait to be sure if it was a snake or not because the passage was dark. I just started running and shouting my brother and mum’s name. Guy, before I knew it, I was outside already.  My mum and brother were still shouting ‘what happened?’๐Ÿ˜‚ It was from outside I was replying them. I was just shouting ‘snake! snake!!’ I’m sure my brother was already scared. I just shouted “in my room.”๐Ÿ˜‚  I don’t even know what they did, I just know they killed it an

Universe City: D-Day

Hellooooo!!! Welcome to Limitless!  Your girl is now a graduate!๐Ÿ’ƒ BSc. Mass Communication. A Scholar at that๐Ÿ’†‍♀️. Can I have a round of applause?!๐Ÿ˜‚ I’m so ecstatic! We would be seeing a lot of pictures more than words today. I wrote the first part of Universe City unsure of whether or not my set would graduate during this pandemic. Thankfully, we have!  I graduated from Babcock University and it was a virtual convocation. So, shall we start from before the convocation? There were centres for gown collection in about 9 states. Each person had to go to the centre closest to them to pick up their graduation gowns. For me, there was no centre in Ogun state, so, I had to go to school to collect mine. Moving on, the morning of the convocation, the school was saying that we had to sign in to zoom for them to check our dressing and makeup.๐Ÿ˜• If you see the rules, lol, they were normal Babcock rules though, so, it was kind of expected. Well, not everyone was able to gain access into the zoom

Spotting Green Flags

Image
Helloooo!!! Welcome back to Limitless! I hope you had a productive week. I sincerely hope you get to relax and rest well this weekend.  About two weeks ago, I talked about spotting red flags, those warning signs that show why you shouldn’t start that relationship. If you’ve not read it, you should do that. You should know that I am not just a preacher of war, I am a preacher of love๐Ÿ˜‚; therefore, I would be addressing how to spot green flags today.  Green flags are those convincing signs that show why you are ready to be in the relationship. They are the ‘go ahead’ signals you get when you are conflicted about whether to start a relationship or not. I’m here to assure and show you that while you are stalling, there are some things that signify you are ready.  1. It feels right This green flag simply means you are sure about the person. Your doubts are dissipating. You don’t have that instinct that says something is wrong anymore. Their energy matches yours or is even more than. The vib
