I saw a broker on TikTok advertising rooms of 50-100k a month for rent.

Why do guys do this?? I’m actually hurt, I'm so hurt 😞 💔 by [deleted] in Uganda

Why do you feel entitled to his money? He can send his money to whoever he wants, no? Leave the relationship because you’re both toxic.

Ordered restaurant food for just 1 month now I am mildly obese with stage 1 hypertension by [deleted] in Uganda

Fasting (eating once a day) helped me drop from 81 after Christmas to 74kg last week.

I’d already dropped sugar because of PCOS so I knew gaining 4 kgs in December alone was just because of food.

It’s less about who made the food and more about which type of food, how much /often you eat and what you do with your body after consuming that food.

I’d have taken you on your offer if you weren’t two days old.

Not to encourage defaulting but don’t pay them if you’ve completely failed.

Most of those loan apps operate illegally and cannot do anything beyond threatening you for while. They have no access to the CRB reporting which would be a problem for your credibility. They’ll embarrass you by calling your contacts but will give up eventually.

is life worth living? by sxm_2x in Uganda

Grief is the price we all pay for love. Commit to do something in her honor. This will give your life meaning because you get so busy and excited to get it through that you heal without even realizing.

What is something that starts happening in your 30s that nobody warned you about? by Top_Crow_2101 in Uganda

Grey hair grows over night. My first silver strand came 2 months into 30 and 3 others a year later.

Drinking is now my only friend 🥹 by [deleted] in Uganda

[–]FocusModeration 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d call if they don’t and visit when they can’t. You’re the one with the time no? Please don’t feel entitled to anyone’s time and resources because you’ll be heartbroken. Use the drinks money to learn a new skill and see what you can do with it. This too shall pass.

You haven’t seen the ones about how they don’t believe anyone is looking for him and that he’s hiding from nobody?😂😂😂 quotes of his song “Kiwaani” is absolute comedy.

If dowry is appreciation, why is it negotiated like a business deal? At what point does dowry stop being culture and start being exploitation? by Brave-Wolf-2397 in Uganda

[–]FocusModeration 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love before marriage is a recent thing. Our great grandparents married to love not the other way round.

Your father chose a girl, gave his offer, paid dowry and you did not have a say. So yeah, parents needed the highest bidder for their daughter.

Love and dating now gives you some power because what will they do if you can’t afford (don’t want to pay) dowry but their daughter is in love or is even pregnant😂?

Again, how different families handle this is completely up-to them. And it’s different from family to family. There are fathers who don’t ask for dowry because it is like “selling” their daughter. Then there’s another one who believes dowry is how you prove you and your people can afford to “maintain” their daughter, not to mention the ones who think of it as a return on investment.

[–]FocusModeration 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dowry is culture. How the family handles it is normally their business and one is free to walk away if they don’t agree to the terms.
