SEE Why Nigerian Celebs Are Going unclad

SEE Why Nigerian Celebs Are Going unclad

This trend has gotten many the much-needed attention that they crave to forge ahead in their careers as musicians, actors or models. It starts with a little show of cleavage and then other major body parts begin to follow in the raunchiest of photos.



When asked in an interview why she takes pleasure in posting her unclad photos online, the controversial singer Maheeda stated that, 'It is deliberate. I know what I am doing. The pictures are not targeted at anything. It is all about attention and there is no mistake about it. This business of music is called show business and I am convinced I am on the right track. I owe no apologies. I just realised this way will be a faster hit than any other way. The pictures are working for me'.



While the ladies strut around displaying their b**bs, the guys on the other hand are always eager to show off their six packs and abs, and most times not afraid to strip on stage revealing a crotch. As in several cases that we have witnessed, sometimes, the lady fans are allowed to get a feel of their crotch in some show of se*uality and appeal.



Celebs getting unclad isn't exactly a new phenomenon but the last year saw more of them shedding their clothes in the name of promotion. Celebrity unclad photos inspire instant fascination from a lot of fans, most of who hardly care but even wish for full disclosure.



With phrases like 'indecency and s*x sells' and 'sexy is the new cool', we seem have come to an era where showing some skin seems to be the in thing and sometimes termed the new definition of sexy.



Like many will say in defense of their actions, 'if you have it, flaunt it'.

Wizkid Hints At His Desire To Have S*x With American Rapper, Dej Loaf [PHOTOS]

Wizkid doesn't care if he has a kid and a girlfriend on the side; he has a thing for Dej Loaf and isn't shy to say it.



The Nigerian superstar singer who claimed he was single has come out to declare his s*xual desire for 24-year-old American rapper Dej Loaf.
The 'Try Me' rapper shared a picture today, and Wizkid was so attracted to her sexy petite frame and her baby face that he commented on the picture.



Wizkid didn't mince words as he expressed his s*xual desire when he wrote "U need to come sit on this ting baby gyal!" under Dej Loaf's picture.
For an artiste as big as Wizkid you would think he would be more discreet about hunting for women online especially famous women.
Dej Loaf hasn't responded to Wizkid's thirsty comment yet.



His comment was noticed by several of his fans on Instagram
Skiibii Faked His Death So He Could Trend On Social Media?!?

Skiibii Faked His Death So He Could Trend On Social Media?!?

According to another report, Five Star Music artiste Skiibii, who was reported to be dead earlier today has been revived.

See the new report online from the source: –
So this morning, I received a mail and a text message that Five Star Music artist Skiibii (who I'd never heard of until today) collapsed in his sitting room and died. And they sent me the photo above. The source said he'd dressed up and was going for his media rounds today when he suddenly fell and was unable to be revived. Because I know the guys at Five Star Music, I contacted them for confirmation. I actually called the music label's artist manager, Soso Soberekon, to confirm the news. Soso, who had already posted a candlelight image on his instagram page said he would call me back with confirmation, that they were just hearing about the incident, that he and Kcee were in Europe. He called me back at exactly 10.02am to confirm that Skiibii had passed on. So I carried the news.
But a few minutes ago (hours after I carried the news), Kcee called me to say Skiibii hadn't died. He said he received the news of his collapse this morning but said he wasn't sure what was going on because he was not in Nigeria. He said his brother told him Skiibii had been found with no pulse and wasn't breathing. They rushed him to the hospital and after hours there, he has been revived. Kcee told me he wanted me to be the first to announce he's back to life because I broke the news of his alleged death.

To be honest, I find this all very strange. Skiibii just released music and has been on the road for a week now promoting it. Someone said to me that all this could be a stunt…for him to trend (which he is – he's the number trending topic in Nigeria) and all media houses in Nigeria have carried his supposed demise.

If this is a stunt, then it's quite sad that they would go to this extent to make him known to Nigerians. I know a lot of Nigerian artists put up stunts, but to play with your life is sick! Extremely sick! But if it's not a stunt and he indeed woke from the dead, then I'm very happy for him

REVEALED: Top 5 Nigerian Artists With Street Credibility

REVEALED: Top 5 Nigerian Artists With Street Credibility

The term street credibility was made popular by 9ice and 2face back in the days when 9ice still had it going for him in music. Street credibility in music basically means being accepted wholly as an artist by the streets and its people. In mainstream music in Nigeria today, this is kind of the most difficult acceptance to have. Being super popular has not translated to street cred for most Nigerian artists. Ask an average street boy if he knows Tiwa Savage and you might just get a 'NO' for an answer. But try asking him if he knows Olamide (Badoosneh), and you will most assuredly get a 'YES'.

Olamide: Olamide has managed to appeal to all kinds of music audience there is in Nigeria. The street knows Olamide just as much as he's known by the 'tush' people. This isn't a coincidence at all. You can feel the street vibes in all Olamide's song, you can equally get the feel good dance vibes. Other artists have identified this part of him, hence the reason he's one of the most featured artists in Nigerian presently.

Lil Kesh: Lil Kesh made the 'Shoki' dance and beat popular. You can't mention 'shoki' today and leave his name out. Being an integral part of the YBNL set up, one can easily say Olamide has had a lot of input into why he appeals to the street.

Small Doctor: Everybody in Nigeria may not know him, but he's very popular on the streets. His usual lines like 'I dey kill mosquito well well' has found its way onto the lips of people on the streets; even women. Street carnivals could not have enough of him last December.

Phyno: Phyno took the whole country by storm just as Da Grin did by being to Igbo speaking people what Da Grin is to Yoruba speaking people. Phyno successfully broke into the western market with a collaboration with Olamide. That turned out to be the collaboration that calved a niche for him as rapper the hood wants to listen to.


Misteer Kenzo: Although not yet fully known all over Nigeria, but his very popular in the streets after he droped "Kolo" track. He did most of his songs in Orange Music as he also hope to become the new C.E.O of Orange Music Production. He has done many tracks which are yet to be realeased officially by Orange Music.
Watch out for him and incase you don't have one of his songs you may download it below.

Why I Waited 3 Years To Get Pregnant, Stephanie Okereke Reveals

Why I Waited 3 Years To Get Pregnant, Stephanie Okereke Reveals

Veteran Nollywood star actress and filmmaker, Stephanie Okereke-Linus, has spoken on why she waited three years before getting married.


Speaking to Genevieve Magazine, the actress said God determines the best for a couple to have a baby. "Waiting this long to have a baby is a personal choice, and God ultimately decides. You have to be ready mentally and physically. I had a film I was shooting and I was traveling a lot to, My movie is out now, and I cannot even promote it across Africa like I wanted to, because am stuck in one place" she told Genvieve Magazine.
"It's also Gods timing, neither my husband nor I were pressurized. I feel this is the right time for it to happen. Right after we got married, I was on set shooting. but this year is different. It's the perfect year for me to get pregnant" she further said.

See 10 Ways You Can Make People Believe You Are Rich

See 10 Ways You Can Make People Believe You Are Rich

With great money comes great responsibility… like how to be as awesome as you can using that money. But the reality is, most of us common folk will never truly know how it must feel to be rich. Some of us may be well-off, and some of us may be struggling, but very few of us can claim we have a Scrooge McDuck money pit in our house, as badass as that may seem.


If one were so inclined, however, one could convince the world they were millionaires, even if their bank accounts are stagnant with only three zeroes. Remember, a big part of tricking people into thinking you are rich is by really selling the cause. This is a performance piece, and if you play it weak, that will be detected.


Have all the swagger of a millionaire and follow these ten simple steps and you just might convince other people that you are rich when really, you are anything but. Remember, lying is never good, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

10. Car Rentals
Listen, there are key moments in everyone's life when you show up somewhere and all eyes are on you. If you pull up in a Pinto pretending it's a Porsche, no one is buying it.


However, before some of these key moments – think high school reunion – if you were to rent a sports car by the hour, it won't empty your bank account but it sure will show the people you went to high school with just how upper class you have become in their absence.

9. Nice Jewelry & Watches
Sometimes a quick way people assess one another and try to figure out if a person is well-to-do is the accoutrements they have on. Be it a nice, brand name watch, or a piece of jewelry that clearly cost a pretty penny, the accompanying accessory can cast that illusion nicely.


keep in mind, people seeing these watches in passing have no way of knowing if you are wearing a high grade knockoff *wink wink*. Remember, it is all about social status, and in this case, you are just projecting yourself a little bit larger than what you really are. No sin there.

8. Act Douchey
The big reality about money is, most people who have it think themselves superior to people who don't. So if you want to seem like you have or come from money, there has to be an heir of "my poop don't stink" hovering around you at all times.


This does not mean being outright rude, but it does mean carrying yourself like you are surrounded by peasants. It is awful and cruel, but when emulating the rich, you gotta do it right or you may as well not do it at all.

7. A Chapeau
Yes, if you want come across like you are rich, you need a big time, stuffy hat. For a man, it can be a bowler or a fedora. Hell, even a top hat screams big money. A man in a top hat strikes us subconsciously as far more powerful than the man in the baseball hat.


A good hat can up your social standings in people's eyes almost immediately. The same can be said for women. Have you ever seen the hats those rich broads wear to the Kentucky Derby? Madness, pure madness.

6. Know Your Food
One thing rich people all love to demonstrate is their knowledge of food and the foodie culture. If you go out with some friends and order a bacon burger, there are no allusions to what's in your account. If you go to some place and order Kobe beef browned in truffle butter, people are going to look at you like you just walked out of a castle. In this case, it is just about basic knowledge of food and what flavors go well and what foods are seen as upper class (hint: duck, lamb and Kobe beef).


So order like a rich man and watch as people just assume it to be true. Just pray that doesn't end with them thinking you are rich enough to pay for the whole meal. Remember, all this is just an illusion meant to up your social standing.

5. Wine Knowledge
Sadly, this is another huge aspect of the bourgeois. Boxed wine is not normally what they engage in. In this case, we're talking about just educating yourself so when the wine gets presented, you can awe those around you by mentioning "hints of oak with an almost cacao finish." That is pretentious, and that is exactly what rich people do.


Also, ask the table what color they prefer and then order for them without asking – super rich person move. They're pretty crappy social skills in real life, but they will convey "rich douche" to whomever you are with at the time.

4. Constant Phone Calls
"Excuse me, this is business and I simply have to take it. So sorry if this seems rude. Business never stops, as they say." That is all you need to know. Memorize that speech now and make it so you do get calls at dinners and parties and ALWAYS take them, but always announce to the entire room how important it is and how sorry you are.


You will run off and the people around you will just assume you must be closing in on some big deal, because who else would act like that much of a butt during a meal out in public? Another key to this one is walking back to the table smiling, saying "crisis averted." If anyone asks what it was, just make some fancy stuff up. They will eat it up.

3. Designer Pets
"Normal people have dogs? Well, we have a Labradoodle, which is a special, extra badass, super pet that most normal people cannot afford. We also have a llama out in the back yard for the kids to mock, and we have a rare, blue, African parrot that can speak three languages."


Keep in mind, all you need is a bird and a normal dog. Just say this stuff, and if all other elements from this list are in order, they'll believe you. Remember, it is all about casting a believable illusion.

2. Fakecations
"Sorry everyone, we will be gone from August 1st to September 21st. We are going to hike part of the Appalachians and then maybe spend the last couple of days flying out to Cozumel to reward ourselves for hiking the Appalachians. So whatever you do, do not try to hit us up in that time because we will not be around."


Thing is, you will be around. But everyone will just assume you aren't so they wont bother you. Take two or three fakecations a year, and everyone will think you are not only living in the lap of luxury, but that you arethe lap of luxury.

1. A.B.S: Always Be Scarf-ing
Seriously, rich, pretentious people never take their scarves off. So just buy one or two decent silk scarves that match well with a few of your outfits, and wear them everywhere. Just think about someone like Johnny Depp if you want an example. Here's a grown man who wears scarves everywhere, and people accept it because he is rich.


If you begin wearing scarves everywhere, everyone's subconscious will just switch and be like, "The dude's gotta be rich. No one else would risk looking that silly."


Yes, it is an act of self sacrifice, but that is part of this process, too. No one ever said pretending to be rich would be easy.

Here Are 9 Smart Ways To Say No To Your Boss Without Losing Your Job.

Here Are 9 Smart Ways To Say No To Your Boss Without Losing Your Job.

Finding smart ways to say no can be difficult especially when it comes to saying no to your boss. Often we find ourselves feeling like we are treading on eggshells when it comes to communicating with your superior in the workplace. While being careful with what you say and do is important, keeping your cool and knowing your limits is also vital. Below are 9 smart ways to say no to your boss without losing your job. Check them out and discover what works best for you and your
situation.

1. Remind Your Boss Of Your Current Workload
Being that we all are human, we can only take on so much responsibility before life becomes a little too hard. Do not let it all stress you out to the point where you put your health and mentality at risk. Remind your boss of your current workload and projects you are working on.


By showing that you are at work on a variety of other important tasks, you show your boss that you have taken on some responsibility already and that you are working on completing them in a timely manner before you begin anything else. Do not be shy to use this technique. Saying no without expletively saying it in this case is a great way to keep everything neutral and as stress free as possible.

2. Say No Without Really Saying No
Have you ever heard of saying no without really saying it as? Certain ways to do so include, using your body language to convey the message and changing tone of voice without being offensive. Use expressions such as "When would you need this done by? I would love to help but…" Make sure you explain yourself clearly in order to convey the message that you cannot but avoid saying no to new projects out right to your boss. Instead think of ways to let your boss know that you would really rather not.

3. Plan On Making Changes To Your Schedule
Sometimes saying no to right now situations when feeling over-burdened is a great tactic. Once again, explain what you are working on when your boss approaches you and see if there are changes that can be made in order for you to complete all that is asked of you.


Perhaps they can suggest having colleagues work on some tasks to help share in the burden. After all, a work environment is supposed to be a team! Plan to make changes to your schedule and ask around the office for help and support if needed. Do not neglect your resources and enjoy working as a unit. Maybe changing your schedule will not have to be done after all.

4. Question Your Boss's Needs
Do not be afraid to question your boss's needs. Ask your boss, calmly of course, about the purpose of certain projects and why it needs to be done at this time. If your plate is full, let them know. If not, reevaluate whether it is worth you questioning to avoid appearing idle in the workplace. Example responses include "How important is this?" or "I have a full schedule of tasks ahead. Why does this project need my attention now?" Use a calm yet confident voice as this may help your boss in reevaluating his own priorities and whether or not this task can be completed by themselves.

5. Pitch An Alternative Solution
If you fear saying no, try offering another solution to fix a project or something that needs to be completed. Examples include offering suggestions on how to make things less stressful in terms of the proposed work or asking for the work to be divided between groups so that it is able to be completed on time. For smaller projects that you may feel over burdened with, ask your boss if perhaps there is someone in administration or an intern that can be of help. Alternative solutions can limit stress and benefit everyone involved.

6. Suggest Colleagues
Suggest colleagues that might be better trained to complete the task than you. Think that something your boss wants you to do is out of your job description? Make suggestions about others who may be more equipped than yourself to handle it. Examples include being asked to write a report about IT management yet your position is in human resources.


Suggest a co-worker who does work in IT who is more knowledgeable about the subject and can better answer questions. If your boss prefers for you to write it for whatever reason, try asking if there is a way if perhaps you could partner with a co-worker to get the job done. Do not stress yourself out and use your resources.

7. Communicate Your Limits
Let your boss know what your limits are and when. If things are not going so well for you, let your boss know that you might not be feeling the best you can feel to complete a task with quality.

8. Make Sure Everything Is Clear From The Beginning
Make sure people know your limits from the beginning. By being clear I mean, make sure that your boss knows what you are best at doing, how you can help them and why you are there in the first place. It is all too often that once a job begins, employees often find themselves doing extra projects outside of the job description. If you are not willing to take on this extra work, let your boss know from the beginning that you would rather use your skills elsewhere to benefit the company.

9. Schedule A Meeting
If all else fails, make sure to schedule a meeting with your boss and confront the situation. In the meeting let your boss know your limits and whether you are feeling stressed. Do not let yourself become a doormat, always the person your boss goes to when looking to get anything and everything done. Remind your boss why you choose to work for them in the first place and emphasize your skill set and what you can and would like to focus on.


Focus on staying relaxed and confident as you approach your boss with one of these ways of saying no. Emphasize how important you think all work is to the company but remind them what purpose you are there to serve.


Remember to look on the bright side of things! If you feel unsure about how to approach your boss about something you do not want to do, pay attention to the way others interact with them. These 9 smart ways to say no can definitely get the point across. Use your talent where it is best needed.


Have you ever had to say no to a boss? What helped you get through it?

9 Things Your Husband Is Always Thinking About

9 Things Your Husband Is Always Thinking About

One of the greatest challenges in marriage is navigating the differences between the typical male thought process and the typical female thought process. God (in His wisdom and His sense of humor) gave men and women very different perspectives. When these differences are understood, the husband and wife can harmonize with each other and see the world with more depth and perspective than either could do alone.


To help you ladies understand the mind of your man, I've listed below the main things that seem to dominate our thoughts. I hope these insights spark some rich conversations in your marriage.
If your husband is like most guys, his thought are probably dominated by…
(In no particular order)

1. Concern for your happiness
This one might surprise you, but most husbands can never be happier than they believe their wife is. Your happiness, contentment and joy is of the utmost importance. Sometimes our own selfishness and pride gets in the way, but your happiness is a consistent thought. When you are unhappy (or you seem unhappy), we'll try to figure out how to make it right.

2. s*x
This one probably isn't a shocker, but we actually think about s*x even more than you think we do. It dominates our thoughts. In fact, most of us wish we could dial down our mental s*x drive. We'll often gauge the health of our marriage based on the health of our s*x life.

3. How to achieve more
Most guys are results-driven, and even if your husband has achieved "success" in life, chances are he still feels like he doesn't measure up in certain areas. Men can be (to a fault) driven to achieve. Engage with your husband in conversation about his goals and dreams and remind him that healthy relationships, not trophies or money, are the ultimate measure of success. We guys need to be reminded of this often.

4. Searching for peace
Men tend to crave silence and solitude in a way most women do not. Men tend to mentally recharge through silence and contemplation while women tend to recharge through conversation and engagement. Again, these are generalizations which don't apply to every individual, but I've observed them to be true in a majority of couples.

5. Food
This one might seem carnal and shallow, but we think about food all the time. If you took all the brain space we use up thinking about food and s*x, most of us would have the mental capacity to memorize an encyclopedia! I've been thinking about my next meal the entire time I've been writing this article!

6. Money
Most men are wired with a need to be a provider for their families. We'll often think hard about ways to make ends meet and generate more income to provide. Sometimes this healthy need to provide can consume us and evolve into an unhealthy need to generate wealth motivated by selfish ambition more than family provision.

7. Sports* (but not necessarily for the reasons you're thinking)
We love seeing modern-day gladiators battle it out on the field and we even will sometimes live vicariously through them (since we all have an inner gladiator inside), b*tthis isn't the only reason we like sports. We also like sports because on that field or court, everything makes sense. The lines are clearly drawn, the rules are known by all and scoreboard is always in view. We wish all parts of life were this clear and measurable.


We want "success" but don't always know if we're winning or not in most areas of life.
*Even when a man isn't into sports, he will usually gravitate to one or more hobbies where he can "keep score." (Video games, fishing, car shows, poker, etc.) There seems to be a hard-wired desire for structure and/or measurable success in most men's hobby pursuits.

8. Pain from the past
Just like the "instant replay" in sports, most of us have a few major life regrets or scars inflicted on us that we are tempted to keep replaying in our minds. They haunt us until (or unless) we learn to embrace the richness and depth of God's grace. If a man won't embrace grace, he'll lock himself in a mental prison where he will punish himself (or punish those around him) for the wrongs he's done or the wrongs that have been done to him.

9. Leaving a legacy
Every man wants his life to count. He wants to be respected by his family and he wants to make a lasting contribution to the world that will endure beyond his own lifetime. Most men feel the constant pressure of wanting to leave a legacy, but not knowing where to start or how to do it. We often need to be reminded that being a faithful husband and dad is the best legacy of all (even if there's never a marble statue carved in our honor).

Why Men Lose Interest

Why Men Lose Interest

It's a painful experience to be deeply connected with a man, only to find him pulling away and losing interest.


Have you ever been with a man who seemed to really like you, only to begin distancing himself and saying he really wasn't ready for a commitment?

Why is it that he ends up marrying the next woman he dates? Was he lying when he said he wasn't ready for a commitment?

The answer comes down to deep emotional attraction.


In all likelihood, he was not lying when he said he wasn't ready for a commitment. In fact, unlike women, a man'sdefaultmode is that he is not ready for (or even looking for) a commitment.
It takes a special kind of deep emotional attraction for a man to feel compelled to keep a woman in his life with a shared promise of committed intentions for the future.

What creates that intense emotional bond for men?


I can tell you one thing for certain. Men experience relationships for what they are here and now,in the present moment.
This is a stereotype, but because there is so much truth in it you would be foolish to ignore its implications for your relationship.


Research with men and women in the early stages of dating relationships has shown that women typically consider themselves to be "in a relationship" by the time the third date rolls around.


In contrast, men do not consider themselves to be "in a relationship" untilseveral months of exclusive dating have occurred.


Even when he's exclusively dating one woman, a man will be surprised when his counterpart suggests the relationship is exclusive. Why is that?
Again, it comes back to the fact that men tend to spend less time plotting and planning the course of their lives in terms of relationships. Men do not define their lives (as much) by where thingsseem to be goingin a relationship.


For your man to reach a point where hedesiresa committed relationship, something very significant must occur first.


He must experience anintenseemotionalattractionthat causes him to feellessalive when he isnotin your presence.
If you would like to learn a method for triggering this special kind of intense attraction, watch the presentation I've prepared for you on What Men Secretly Want below.

Top 5 Reasons To Drink Lemon Water Every Morning

Top 5 Reasons To Drink Lemon Water Every Morning

Smoothies can be packed with protein; pre-workout energizers, hydrators, and post-workout recovery accelerators can deliver performance-enhancing nutrients; herbal teas can soothe or energize — all of these beverages have a functional purpose to meet specific wellness needs. And then there's a less obvious, simple, blender-free drink that serves a mighty wellness-enhancing purpose. Providing more than just hydration, fresh lemon juice and water can deliver surprising benefits.

Starting every morning with a glass of warm lemon water is actually a ritual in Ayurveda or Yogic traditions, used to stimulate digestion for the day and clear the body of any toxins that may have settled in the digestive tract overnight.

While it is tricky to apply the strict burden of evidence expected by Western science to traditional practices (often called "folk medicine") that originated long before modern medical science standards were developed, research on the nutritional elements found in lemons suggests the numerous health benefits traditionally associated with drinking fresh lemon water daily may have merit.


We tend to reach for those warm beverages in the morning like coffee and tea, but try starting your day with some warm lemon water first to kick-start digestion. The water doesn't always have to be warm, but it should be purified. Simply use half a fresh lemon per large glass of water or to taste and sip throughout the day. On a simple level, fresh lemons take plain old water up a notch. Here are 5 health benefits of drinking lemon water that elevate drinking it for reasons beyond just taste:

*.Support immune function: Lemons are high in antioxidant vitamin C, known for its supportive role in healthy immune function1,2 which may reduce the risk of respiratory infection3. Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) found in lemons demonstrates anti-inflammatory effects, and is used as complementary support for asthma and other respiratory symptoms4,5. Lemons also contain saponins6, which show antimicrobial properties that may help keep cold and flu at bay. Last but not least, ascorbic acid enhances iron absorption in the body; iron plays an important role in immune function7.

*.Alkalize the body: Although the tartness of a lemon may make them seem acidic, lemons are actually one of the most alkalizing foods for the body. Lemons contain both citric and ascorbic acid, weak acids easily metabolized from the body allowing the mineral content of lemons to help alkalize the blood.

*.Aid digestion: Citrus flavonols8 are believed responsible for lemon's traditional use as a digestive tonic. Believed to stimulate and purify the liver, lemon juice is traditionally understood to support digestive hydrochloric acid in the stomach further aiding digestion. Vitamin C status has been associated with reduced risk of peptic ulcers caused by the bacteria Helicobacter pylori9.

*.Clear skin: Vitamin C and other antioxidants in lemons combat free radical damage. Free radical damage — especially as caused by UV exposure and environmental toxins — is responsible for many symptoms of aging. Antioxidant intake can help offset this damage, minimizing wrinkles. Further, lemon juice can be applied topically to scars and age spots to help reduce their appearance.

Your 5-Step Guide To Sweeping A Guy Off His Feet

Your 5-Step Guide To Sweeping A Guy Off His Feet

Today I want to share 3 very powerful methods, tactics, and techniques to get a guy like and want you.

1. Know That Guys Are Cats
The first thing to say on the subject of learning how to get a guy to want you is that you need to realize that men are just like cats. Sound a little weird? Hear me out!


Ever see a cat chase after a toy that is just sitting there? I certainly haven't. However, when it's dangled in front of them but still remains slightly out of reach, they literally go crazy for it.mThey jump around, chase, sprint and pretty much will do whatever it needs to do to catch this "just out of reach" toy.


Bizarrely, guys are exactly the same. If you're fun, exciting, playful, flirty, just out of reach, then he is more likely to desire and chase after you.

2. Stay Healthy (On All Levels)
Going to the gym in and of itself doesn't make you healthy. Eating right isn't the only important factor for healthiness. Being thin is a goal of many women, but again this may not necessarily make you healthier.


But combining these 3 things — going to the gym, maintaining a healthy weight and eating right — is going to massively contribute to health.


You see, guys aren't really looking for a skinny woman, gym bunny or a nutritious eater. They are naturally attracted to someone who is healthy. Being lean is the result of being healthy.
So ask yourself, "Am I doing everything possible for my health?"

3. Dress Attractively, Not Fashionably
I am absolutely not talking about being fashionable. Being fashionable is certainly fun, but it you are keen to make a guy want you and chase you, then you should think more about dressing attractively to accentuate your good points.


I can honestly tell you this as guy: men just don't care about fashion nearly as much as women do. As a result, we often don't even notice the latest trends or what's hot.


So to reiterate, rather than dressing fashionably, dress attractively. The difference is often subtle, but it's crucial to getting a guy.

4. Don't Be A Debbie Downer
I know "Susie Smiles" sounds a little cheesy, but I hope you get my point.


Are you a fun person, a depressing person, or a boring person? Most guys don't want to hang around a girl that's boring or depressing, no matter how attractive she is. They'd prefer to run a mile, honestly.


When I talk about being a fun person and a positive person, I don't mean some sort of psycho-happy-all-the-time person. I'm saying that you should do your best to see the good in the world and be at least a little bit more positive.

5. Have Your Own Life
The final thing I have to say on getting a guy to like you is that you absolutely need to have your own life when it comes to dating, and even just attracting a guy. Again, this comes down to the fact that guys don't want what they can easily have (remember the cat analogy above?).


So rather than always being available to hang out with a guy, make sure that you have your own life, interests and fun things to do (and invite him to). This will make you seem way, way more valuable in his eyes

Interesting Tips To Make A Girl Fall In Love Without Spending Cash

Interesting Tips To Make A Girl Fall In Love Without Spending Cash

I am about to show you the same step by step secrets players use to get girls swarming to them like magnet.


Apply these same step by step process and you would get a girl interested in you without taking her out on a single date.

Yes, money can attract a girl (no doubt about that). Especially the gold-digging type of girls. But sometimes using money to attract girls can be annoying, we guys want a girl that would like us for who we are and not because of how fat our wallet is or how much we have spent on her.


Sometimes all we want is true love and not a girl who is interested in our money.

If you don't want a gold digger who is just interested in money then this step by step seduction secrets will be really helpful.

#1. MAKE YOUR APPROACH WITH CONCEALED INTENTIONS.
I really want you to get this. Let's assume you meet a girl In a bank, what case will she be more friendly?

CASE 1: when you walk up to her to collect a pen?

CASE 2: when you walk up to her to toast her?
Of course, case one is the answer. A girl you try to toast would naturally try to be hard to get.


When a girl is sure you like her she tends to raise her defence. What players do is to approach a girl without showing signs that they are interested in her and by the time she knows it - bam, she has already fallen. This is simple psychology. They approach her this way so they can get into her head before she starts forming.


So how do you apply this seduction principle in real life?


To understand this try to think about this scenario; have you ever had this happen to you before: A particular girl gives you green light and shows signs she likes you then when you toast her and tell her how much you love her she suddenly starts withdrawing from you.


Ever wondered why this happens?
Answer - because you went against the step one of the players rule-
Players never make the mistake of allowing a girl become too sure of how much he feels about her.


Here is the rule: Never tell a girl how much you love her, make her guess. The best time to tell her is when you are sure she feels twice the way you feel.


Girls would tell you they can never date a guy they are not sure if they love them, but the truth is this - girls don't know what they want. You have to make them fall in love with you.

#2: JONSE HER WHEN YOU COMMUNICATE
Let me give you a picture of a girl's life.
Visit the facebook picture of a girl and you will understand how they think. Their pictures are filled with praises from guys and they receive those praises like it's their right.


No sweet thing you say to her is new to her. Her inbox is filled with all sort of praises. The average ones get at least 5 serious guys toasting them in two weeks.

To get her attention you have to be different.
How?

By Jonsing her.
Shocked?
Well, if you were a player you wouldn't be shocked. This what players do all the time.
Try and watch the way any player you know talks to girls. Notice how they talk to a girl and make fun of her in a playful way - no matter how pretty the girl looks - they don't care, they just talk to her like she is their small sister.

It's simple psychology.
People are naturally attracted to people who don't try to impress them. The more pretty a girl looks the more it works on her.


When other guys are saying sweet things to her and you show up and say things totally different from what she is used to hearing from guys - she starts wondering why and she starts trying to be close to you.


My favourite approach is to playfully tell a very pretty girl that I have friendzoned her and that I don't find her attractive. I say this in a particular way that tricks her into wanting to make me fall for her.

#3: CONFUSE HER WITH ON AND OFF
Have you ever wondered why girls like guys who don't like them while when you shower her with attention she still ignores you.


Infact, the more you show a girl that you love her the more she withdraws from you.

Have you ever noticed that?
Well, players have found a way to put a stop to this. This is called the ON and OFF strategy.

How is it used?
Simple; by acting like you like her this moment and then the next moment you start acting a bit cold.


You must have seen a girl who has fallen for this particular trick from a player. They cry that he doesn't call, he is unpredictable, that they are not sure if he likes him, sometimes he quarrels with them for no just reason.


A popular celebrity player is Chris brown. Notice how he treats Karrauche and she still always keep going back to him.


This is the players' little secret. They never make a girl become too sure...

7 Warning Signs You’re Not Getting Enough Protein

7 Warning Signs You’re Not Getting Enough Protein

Protein is an essential component of the body. The organs, muscle, brain, nerves, and immune system are all, to some degree, comprised of protein. You name the body structure, and it probably has some protein in it. Since protein is one of the fundamental building blocks for the body, you need to ensure that you get enough in your diet.


Lack of Protein has signs and symptoms depicted in the body changes.

7 Adverse Effects of Protein Deficiency

Thinning Hair
While genetics can be an important factor in thinning hair, protein deficiency can also be a cause. When we are not getting enough protein the body goes into "conservation mode" and stops sending valuable protein to nourish hair and nails. That is why hair and nail health are important indicators when it comes to checking whether or not you are protein deficient.

Swollen Eyes
Protein deficiency can lower the amount of plasma protein you have in blood which can lead to a condition called Oedema. This decrease in plasma protein can be caused by the liver not storing enough iron. If Iron is not available to help the production of haemoglobin, Anemia can be the result and swelling begins.

Fatigue
Deficiency of protein might affect your state as well. This is due to low energy. Proteins help in stabilizing the sugar levels present in our body and lack of enough proteins can reduce your mental alertness thereby hindering the ability to respond. Hence, you feel tired, low and weak.

Muscle Loss
Protein deficiency leads to muscle loss. The size of your muscle starts decreasing with protein deficiency. If your body doesn't get adequate protein from your diet, it starts cannibalizing its own tissue to meet its requirements.

Constant food cravings
You might assume a protein shortage would create a hankering for a hamburger or T-bone steak. Experts, however, have found that without the protein necessary to steady your blood sugar, your body instead looks for a more immediate solution. Translation: Candy and other junk food to fill the gaps.

Frequent illnesses
Are you otherwise in good health but find yourself using all your sick days every year? More protein could be your best prescription. Protein is key to a strong immune system. It's the foundation of red blood cells, white blood cells, and antibodies, all of which work together to fend off bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens in your body.

Diarrhea
Chronic diarrhea can be a sign of malabsorption, which means nutrients are not being fully absorbed by your body. Malabsorption can be triggered by infection, surgery, certain drugs, heavy alcohol use, and digestive disorders such as celiac sprue and Crohn's disease.

Foods that are high in protein
Legumes such as beans are rich source of vegetable protein but can be a little hard to digest, so prepare them with vegetables and make sure you chew them well.


Eggs, again for non-vegans, contain some protein but more importantly all eight essential amino acids, which helps address deficiencies.


Grains contain more protein than most people realise, especially quinoa and amaranth, and when combined with another grain can deliver more protein than a serving of meat.

Scientists Have Discovered The Cause Of Asthma — And Possibly The Cure

Scientists Have Discovered The Cause Of Asthma — And Possibly The Cure

Drop your inhaler — you may not need it anymore. Scientists at Cardiff University in Wales say they have found the root cause of asthma, The Telegraph reports. And the discovery could lead to a new treatment for the condition within the next five years.



Using mice and human airway tissue from asthmatic and non-asthmatic people, the team was able to prove that the calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) is the cause of the condition. In asthma patients, the CaSR is overactive and causes the airways to become inflamed and narrow. When this happens, the tell-tale symptoms of asthma occur: coughing, wheezing, the feeling of a tight chest and loss of breath.
After uncovering the cells that are triggering the problem, researchers also realized that drugs already exist that can deactivate these cells and put a stop to all the symptoms. Calcilytics, a calcium receptor antagonist used to treat bone deficiency, could be the answer to asthmatics' prayers everywhere.



"If we can prove that calcilytics are safe when administered directly to the lung in people, then in five years we could be in a position to treat patients and potentially stop asthma from happening in the first place," said professor Daniela Riccardi, lead investigator of the study.
If this continued research proves successful, this could be the best news for asthma sufferers yet.

8 Biggest Brain Damaging Habits You Should Be Aware Of

8 Biggest Brain Damaging Habits You Should Be Aware Of

We all know how important the brain is to the body. Without a properly functioning brain, we would not be able to perform the daily tasks that we do day in and day out. Avoid Brain Damaging Habits which actually harm you. There are a few routines that actually trivial, but often we do not realize the impact on our brains. If passed, this habit can make your brain decrease in productivity. So subtract these habits that can cause damage to your brain.

Everyday things we do and use and how they can lead to brain injury, or worse, brain damage. This is a very serious topic that should be read seriously. If you find that you or someone you know is hurting him/herself in any of the following ways, consult with a family physician right away.
We should be training our brain as much as we can. The brain is made up of 90% water and scientist are still researching into its complexity and marvel.

8 Biggest Brain Damaging Habits You Must Aware
High Sugar consumption
Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients causing malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.

Air Pollution
The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain efficiency.

No Breakfast
Be it for diet or to save time, many people choose to skip breakfast, and in the process they damage their brain. After your sleep, your brain requires nutrients. Skipping breakfast deprives the brain of these much-needed nutrients. Not eating breakfast will also lead to low blood sugar, which is also bad for your health.

Head covered while sleeping
Sleeping with the head covered decreases the concentration of oxygen and increases the concentration of carbon dioxide,thus leading to brain damaging effects.

Multitasking
Recent research reported by the Daily Mail, said that the habit of multitasking can make the brain to shrink. It is better you train schedule habits and organize something that is not often do a lot of activities together in one time. Know your limits.

Not Engaging In Stimulating Thoughts
Your brain is like a muscle, and if you don't exercise it – it will shrink. The deeper the thoughts – the better the exercise your brain gets, and the healthier it will be in the long-term. So read a book, watch a documentary or play some puzzle games, just keep that thinker working.

Enough Sleep
Sleep is essential for your physical and mental health. A good night's sleep (8 hours) is vital for your brain, as well as your internal organs. It has been recently discovered that the brain cleanses itself of toxins only during the deep sleep cycle. Sleep deprivation also accelerates the death of brain cells, which can lead to impaired memory and reduced faculties.

Smoking
To help stop damaging the brain, an individual that smokes should stop smoking. Besides being bad for the entire body, smoking causes the brain to shrink and can lead to Alzheimer's.

10 Things Only Women With Big B00bs Can Understand

10 Things Only Women With Big B00bs Can Understand

If you've got C-cup or larger-sized bréasts, chances that it feels like you permanently have a toddler attached to your body, and like most demanding children, they dominate your whole life.

Top 10 Big Bóob Problems:

1. Under-bóob sweat

2. Your brás being mistaken for áss-holders and/or hats

3. Budgeting to afford a brá that actually fits

4. Finding the right specialty brá shop with a correctly-trained fitter you actually trust, or at the very least, just finding a store that actually carries your size

5. Packing a larger suitcase just to fit your brás into

6. Figuring out ways to get your insurance to pay for a bréast reduction

7. Demi-cup overspill

8. Shopping for clothes based on whether or not you can wear a brá with them

9. Wondering if a guy is actually looking at you or only interested in your chest

10. How not to look crazy while holding your boóbs to avoid black eyes during a run
Growing Up With Big Boóbs
Oh yeah, you can fill out a sweater like it's nobody's business, and you certainly get male eyes on you, but with your giant ta-tas comes a life of watching your boóbs pop out of brás, shirts and dresses like they're rampaging bulls on the streets of Pamplona.

And if you think bréasts don't have a mind of their own, well, honey, we really have to beg to differ. Remember when you were 12 and growing mosquito bites for the first time and were so absurdly proud of yourself?

While guys were having shin splints from growing too tall, too fast, the big-títty-committeé éxploded stretch marks over bean-bag boóbs that hurt if you even looked at them.

I went from a training brá to a C-cup at the age of 12 and a D by my 13th birthday. It's no wonder I was mistaken for an 18-year-old, since no one was bothering to look at my face.

Fast forward through middle school and high school, where many of the less-endowed girls were all glaring daggers at you, and often not-so-quietly calling you slutty and dumb behind your back.

It often seemed everyone else was using complex algorithms dictating that the bigger our cup size, the more likely we were to spread our legs, and the lower our intelligence must be.

Meanwhile, while others were busying judging us, we were left trying to figure out how to find prom dresses that didn't make us look like pórn stars, b*tton-downs that didn't póp b*ttóns so fast they take an eye out and attempting to get guys to look above our chin when they talked to us.

As girls with huge bóobs, we are often told by friends and family to "Stop complaining. I only wish I had bóobs like yours." Jokes aside, there are a lot of drawbacks.

Amidst the obvious clothing issues and drooling stares, there is also back pain, posture issues, hindrancés when it comes to running and working out and postpartum inflation/stretching that we've heard only makes the situation worse.
Feeling séxy with boóbs so heavy they really don't look great without a brá is a feat. I know what you're thinking — all men love boóbs, right? Well, maybe.

But with a naturally large chest, it can be hard to feel good nakéd, since your comfort in cléavage is strippéd away when the brá comes off. Celebrities and pórn stars post-plastic surgery have created the illusion that big boóbs are perfectly round and stand up on their own.

Wearing a backless dress is not a problem, because gravity doesn't exist and nipplés are perfectly even. Not true. Even at a young age, the giant girls sag from the sheer weight and flip-flop about in pretty much the least séxy way possible.

Not a great visual, right? We can only fear for how Left and Right will look 20 years from now.
So, the next time you think us ladies who have been blessed (or cursed) with G-cup bréasts need to realize how lucky we are, remember that we are just as insecure with ourselves as women who only need a camisole.

We carry our own (very heavy) insecurities every day, too. Like everyone else, we learn how to cope with our own body image issues.

You either hide behind giant clothing and pretend your bréasts aren't the first thing anyone sees, or you learn to break the ice, make the first joke and just acknowledge the elephant(s) in the room. Because if you don't, someone else will.
