Why Girls Hardly Confide in Each Other




It's cool to have a girl talk, it gives us a certain kind of sanity. We see it in a lot of romantic comedies, chic flicks and we often forget that they only happen in the movies... Well most of the time.

You see, girl talk can be a problem, especially for girls that have a problem with keeping things to themselves. So they spill the tea during pillow talks, cat fights, social media chats, anonymous comments on blog posts, after a bad end of the so called friendship. Girls tend to employ a defense mechanism before they spill the tea to their friends.

But why spill the tea when you will only chunk out a single drop?

Due to these defense mechanisms, we tend to see a lot of inconsistent gists, stories that never add up, lies, more lies and more lies, because they don't want to be judged or they don't want to hear it from the wrong mouth.

Having girl talk is important when it is with the right and mature kind. It helps you get rid of something that could destroy you, especially if the person has an experience. It helps you relieve yourself from a burden, two good heads are better than one right?

But before you divulge and spill all your dirty little secrets or wash your smelly underpants. Note that there are two types of girl talk circle.

Close knit circle
They are squad goals. Turn up together, slay together, have each other's backs. Hell they could kill you for messing with one of them. They share secrets, gossip a lot ... About other people. You don't mess with them and even when they fight, they have a strong girl code because of the bond they have already formed.

Destruction Circle.
They are lethal, mostly together because they leech off one another. There is always a leader who makes others feel less special, a queen bee that always wants the center of attention. They gossip about others and also to others about their crew.

I have quality girl talk, I mean girl talk has saved me from making a lot of mistakes. It is devoid of judge and jury, devoid of unnecessary hate but we can be petty and savage to ourselves. If you are mad we probably tell you to go and kill yourself.

Girls talk is important, if you are with the right circle. Nothing beats sisters from another mother, talking about almost anything, vulnerable to each other as we trash out our insecurities, soaking up with a bottle of wine or whatever plays into the mood.

The Boys You Want VS The Boys You Need.

(photo credit : Elena Berezina)  Let me tell you a story about the boys you want. They are mysterious, have a dangerous appeal, a spice of melodrama and zest for fantasy. Wonderland du jour and attention je ne sais quoi. They make you feel like you want the world to stop, heck the world stops when you are with them. The calls, damn the calls! Incessant, over the edge, every moment affair. You pour your hearts out on the phone, through texts, chats... It is a drug, you can never get enough of the intoxication. It is highend ecstasy borderline on molly heroine, morphine... The love engulfs you, you love them till your breathing stops, you love them till they call the cops on you... The love breeds madnees, you always want more but you never really get enough. And then... Reality sets in! It is an illusion, there is a sudden awakening, a flash of lightning that jolts you back to consciousness.  It comes fast, it ends faster. And then... Y...

Movie: Lionheart Review

If you want to watch a movie so surreal that it feels like it is just you, watching from a distance, as a certain family goes to through hurdles to retain longevity, then you should see Lionheart. In all hype and noise, Lionheart stands in the rubble, undeterred, whilst it goes ahead to break through clichés, stereotypes and the nerve jerking predictable story lines always churned out with few polishing. So it is safe to say; I did not expect the ending. I expected like a big BOOM where the protagonist Adaeze (Genevieve Nnaji) saves the day, but still the ending was very real life and a great moral lesson particularly for people in business. Also I loved how they movie was able to incorporate how lives were ruined by the 'Change' in government. How people were are forced to make huge gambles just to stay afloat. In all diamonds: the rubies, the topazes, the sapphires, the hyacinths, the crystals, the peridotes, the amethysts, the emeralds.... Lionheart is a Sa...

Poem: The Fairy of Nondally

There lived a fairy in Nondally, but she wasn't always seen. The people who did, said her face was gleam. She made the roses bloom, she guarded the loom. She was dressed in green, a clothing fit for a queen. There lived a fairy in Nondally, she barely spoke. Hair  of brass, eyes like it was teary from smoke. She looked at the splendor with eyes of wonder "O' what a scene that stretched to yonder" There lived a fairy in Nondally, I was told. Who could have known how I would feel if I could behold. A beautiful fairy, immaculate beauty It pleases me to pen down this in a jiffy.
