As I entered the mall to do some grocery shopping, I was amazed when all the guys in the hall started starring at me. I know I'm a fine man but to get the attention of fellow guys was quite something. It was OK until one guy grabbed my butt...

Issa thread #JosiahsThreads
The night before was a battle that I would never forget, our 7 years old marriage was at the verge of collapse and from all indications I am to blame even though I really don't know how all these came to be in the first place.
Ingrid and I were friends for 2years, dated for 2years, courted for 7 months before we tied the knots, and from everything they have told us about best friends being best couples I was sure our marriage was going to be a great success.
This success was well envisaged because all through the first six years of our marriage, we experienced peace beyond measures and success in all we did together as a family until the bizarre happened.
My beloved Ingrid who has never fought with me started picking offenses claiming that I'm not as caring as I was before the marriage and I don't pay attention to her "female side". Although the only truth I could pick out from her complain is the fact that I've been more busy
than I use to be because of the expansion of my business but I was puzzled because the person asking for attention was recently promoted to the position of country manager which makes her less available; as a matter of fact we had to send our son to go stay with her mom
for the time being till he's old enough to cope with our tight schedule. But I was resolute to make things work so I decided to create some family time with my wife to save my marriage, my wife who observed what I did reciprocated the action by taking out some time off work
as well and our love journey started again. We went out like new lovers and it was interesting again but things took a preposterous turn when Ingrid always insisted I go with her to make her hair, do her pedicures and manicures, go shopping for every item she needed.
I tried to talk to her about it and reason things out because my business was suffering greatly buy she refused and insisted I continued with her or she exits the marriage. This is the point where we were the night before when we fought and I decided to go sleep in the other room
I woke up exhausted and since it was a weekend I didn't want to stay home and have to deal with more quarrels from Ingrid so I decided to step out for exercises. I know I am a handsome young looking dude but what happened in the gym that day made me so uncomfortable
that I had to leave without achieving the purpose for which I went there in the first place. At first, all the beautiful ladies were coming close to me (which gave me the impression that I still got it) but it became appalling when all they started discussing with me
their woman issues and because of my experience with ladies while growing up, I was able to advise them and they loved me for it ending our conversations with hugs and warm pecks.
The annoying part was when all the men started looking at me like I was pot of hot Nigerian jollof rice served to a starving prisoner who has not seen food for over a decade. Just when I thought their looking at me was the height,
one young cute stout looking dude came close to me licking his lips and handed me his phone to type in my digits. This young man doesn't look like a business man to me and from my observations he could only be a model, bouncer or just a fine face; I quickly hurried out of the gym
in confusion and drove straight to the golf club to do some golfing (at least my golf buddies are not mad like the kids at the gym). But things were a lot worse at the golf club as I was directed to go play the amateur league
(imagine a pro with a 4years unbeaten run being sent to the amateur league). I felt like there must be a problem so I decided to go to the lawn tennis court and lash out the brewing anger inside of me before I got home. On getting there, all the ladies came to me
and wanted to form groups with me which was strange. I am not very good in lawn tennis and my wife was the pro so I couldn't comprehend why the ladies wanted a piece of the preposterous play I had to offer.
I declined more than six women until my wife's friend (the other lawn tennis champ besides my wife) came to me to be partners with her and I just couldn't refuse. It was a disaster when after the first round she angrily left because I caused her all the point
that was supposed to earn her the championship they were playing but I didn't even know.
My day was off already so I decided to retire home and try to get myself together only for me to meet the house empty.
Ingrid was probably too angry after the previous night and I'm sure this led to her exiting the house; my world was crashing before my eyes so I had to put calls across to all her friends and families but no one seemed to be taking my calls or replying my texts. I decided to take
a nap maybe it was all a dream and by the time I wake up it would all be gone. I woke up at 6pm to the tune of my message alert and by the time I opened the text it was a reminder that a major investor I was meant to have a meeting with was already at the venue waiting for me.
I didn't even bother to dress up because I waited 5 years to make this meeting happen so nothing was going to stop me. I rushed into my car and zoomed off to the venue for the meeting. I got to the venue and sat on the table with the investors
and tried to start pitching my business ideas when two hefty men bundled me out of there. Just when they dropped me off on another table then my phone rang and I discovered it was the investor's call, I picked the call to explain that I was around and he ended the call
at the sound of my voice. The heat and problem was too much at this point I had to go into the restroom to go cool off, as I walked into the restroom all the men were looking at me like they were in "shock".
I decided to look myself in the mirror to see what was making me an interesting state only to discover I was my wife.
Thanks for reading. Hope you enjoyed yourself. Don't ask for any miracle ending I reserved that detail for my book 😋😋😋 #JosiahsThreads

I have had the worse experiences of my life relationship wise and I was resolute to let relationship be. As a matter of fact, I decided I would never have anything to do with any woman again.

Betty was so pushy that I was scared but...

Issa thread #JosiahsThreads
After 4 failed relationships with all my partners cheating on me and leaving me because I was a gentle man, I eventually met Derinsola during a vacation visit to the Bahamas. Being that I love them thick , the click was sleek. Somehow she feel for me aswell
Derin was the woman of my dreams beyond her gorgeous body, she was caring and super sweet. I was certain we're the dream couple bcos even the devil could see we were inseparable. I thought after the vacation we would break off but we only got stronger & better together.

"If you have faith, nothing can move you, no power wether physical or spiritual can scare you" were the last words that came out of Pst Tunde's mouth when heard "poh poh poh kpa kpa kpu kpu" sound of guns in the terbernacle...

Issa thread #JosiahsThreads
Everybody just went down even before being instructed to do so; the shocking part was that Pst Tunde within this few seconds had emptied his pockets, lying face down & begging that his life be spared.
Pst Tunde is famous for his teachings on faith as a dogged preacher. We've heard so much about him that we even heard he's been shot several times but the bullet didn't penetrate his skin. We even heard he used faith to driver a car with empty tank from Abuja to calabar

The job offer came with a fat 6 digits salary, official house, official car & a paid house help service. I didn't even bother giving it a second thought before I boarded the bus from Calabar to Abuja... I was frustrated when John Said he's traveled

Issa thread #JosiahsThreads
Having been jobless for 6 years, the mouth watering offer that came with the job took away my sense of reasoning. I didn't even bother to call John & inform him I would be staying at his place for the period of the job interview process.
I guess my subconscious mind calculated that since John has never gotten a leave time from work since he started 8 years ago he wasn't going to be getting one now that I was coming.

I sat in the examination halls with my eyes pacing about & my heart praying. I looked at my watch & discovered the 7hrs I calculated in my head was just 13mins.

I concluded it was over for me & I'm getting an extra year until...

Well I attended an expensive private scho close to the house from my kindergarten days up to my primary school. So far amongst the 8 students I always came first undisputed & everyone was sure I was intelligent except my cousin sister who called me local champion.
She always told my dad that I'm just enjoying the privilege of no competition that if I was sent to a public school I would be beaten hands down 😂😂😂😂

It always sounded funny & unbelievable until one day I got angry & made my dad consider her appeal.

Janet was a thorn in my life throughout my secondary school days. She was big, ugly & strong. I always imagined how I would deal with her but it all ended in imaginations until I saw her 10 years later looking like freshly baked pie👅👅

Issa thread #JosiahsThreads
I transferred to the school from my other school bcos of the same bullying issue. The girl at my other school was bullying me bcos I asked her friend out & didn't ask her out. I had hoped this transfer would be my redemption bcos the lies I told for my dad to transfer me was deep
So when I arrived at this new school, I decided to keep away from girls & mind my business. But being intelligent was the only thing wrong I did. All the girls were attracted to me while I was just doing my thing. Anytime I tried to get my freak on with any of them

I've always thought my choices were wrong but this time it felt too good not to be right. She was against my choice of being a Masseur but I was hell bent on doing that which brings me joy & income.

As I entered, she shut the door behind me & said...

Randa and I have been dating for 2years & everyone around us have been expecting us to consolidate things in marriage. She was ready, her family was ready, my family was ready, I was ready but my account balance didn't seem ready.
As a graduate teaching in a private secondary school with a 25k monthly salary, marriage was way out of my budget. Randa is the first daughter of her family from Akwa Ibom & her bride price isn't something you pray about (rara oh). You must have money even if you have faith.
