7 Effective Ways to Reach a Compromise with Your Partner
If you want to have a lasting and healthy relationship, you should know how to reach a compromise with your significant other. As an important part of any relationship, compromise can help you achieve mutual understanding and it can teach you overcome the hardship of living together. Here are a few effective tips on how to reach a compromise with your partner.
Effective Ways to Reach a Compromise with Your Partner
1. Identify the real problem
Don’t give way to emotions, but just try to identify the real problem. If you pull other issues in, it will be impossible to find the compromise. It is necessary to reject all disagreements if you want to figure out the true issue. There is no doubt that real love can surmount many barriers. Stick to the real problem and it will be easier to reach a compromise with your partner.
2. Listen to each other
Let your partner express their point of view. It doesn’t mean that you should always agree with them, but it is important to take into account all opinions. Don’t think only about yourself, because you can also make mistakes. You need to listen to each other and make exceptions if necessary.
3. Be empathetic
When you listen to each other, try to be empathetic. Sometimes it is not enough to understand the situation and listen to each other. Try to be imbued with your partner’s feelings and emotions. Your partner can be wrong, but they might not realize it, that’s why you should handle the situation without conflicts. Try to put yourself in their shoes and it will be easier to reach a compromise.
4. Tweak your compromise
Keep in mind that compromise is a kind of agreement that you can tweak every now and then. The main point is to identify the issue and stick to other points of a compromise. There is no need to focus on a certain agreement, because you can tweak it. Try to be open to your partner and communicate freely. Both of you will eventually feel happy if you use your diplomatic skills in resolving conflicts.
5. Define what you want
It is difficult to come to a common decision if you don’t exactly know what you want to get in some kind of a disagreement. Only you know what can make you feel okay and happy. Don’t forget to take into account your partner’s ideas and desires.
6. Suggest a possible compromise
When you try to understand each other’s feelings and state what you want, it’s important that both of you suggest all possible compromises. If you have a big desire to reach a compromise, both of you should find a suitable outcome with a good grace. This new outcome will satisfy your interests to the maximum. It is necessary to suggest a great number of variants to solve your common problem.
7. Don’t fear to bend a little
Sure, much depends on the nature of your character. Don’t be very proud and fundamental when it comes to your happiness. It is almost impossible for both of you to get what you want at once. That is why someone has to bend a little to reach a compromise. Your partner should also be ready to bend if necessary. You won’t lose much, but you may have a chance to find a common ground and get rid of conflicts and live happily.
All you need is to follow these 7 rules and be reasonable if you want to reach a compromise. Life is full of situations which can ruin your love and relationship. Everything depends on your willingness to stay together against all the odds. Have you ever used the compromise as a tool to solve life problems?

Nigerian Pop singer Skuki have rejected an award nomination for Best New Act at the upcoming Nigeria Entertainment Awards. The brothers won the award for ‘Next Rated’ at The Headies in 2010, and it is exactly four years later and they are nominated for best new act, they are angry that they are still considered rookies.
Yesterday, May 29, organizers of the annual Nigerian Entertainment Awards (NEA) unveiled this year’s nominees list fielding Skuki in the ‘Best New Act’ category alongside newbies Patoranking, Charass, Tekno and Runtown.
Here is what he wrote “Best new act…bawo? Backward never NEA Awards kindly eject my name from that category’, one half of the group Peeshaun tweeted.‘Not moved by social acceptance or crowd mentality. Awards don’t put money in my bank account. Dat nomination had beta been an error.”

How Fela’s "Double Wahala" Has Changed My Life ––Oritsefemi
he secret desire of all Naija musicians is to record one ‘lucky’ hit song that will give him breakthrough. This is what has happened to Oritse Femi with his "Double Wahala for Deady Body" and he is so happy:
“There were times when I had no money to pay studio fees and I would ask my friends for a loan. After paying the studio fee, I would be left without the fare for my transport back home. When I eventually trekked home, there would be no food to eat.
“At that time, the fee was N2, 500. I could remember that August Studio in Apapa charged N5, 000 per session. That was where the Plantashun Boys produced all their albums. But I could not afford to go there. So I used Mighty Mouse studio in Ajegunle where the fee was N2, 500 per session.
“Things have definitely changed. Nowadays, I don’t charge less than N3m to perform at a concert. Sometimes the concerts are funded by multinational companies and we have to tour 20 states. Multiply N3m by 20 states and you will understand what I am saying. The situation has indeed improved.”
Recalling the rough days before he eventually recorded Double Wahala, Oritse Femi told E-Punch:
"I was almost frustrated because my career had over the years failed to generate the desired response from music fans. I prayed to God first for inspiration and basically retraced my steps. It was then it occurred to me that my fans actually want something dynamic for a change. Consequently, because the music we are doing is Afro hip-hop and since Fela was the king of Afro hip hop, I decided to begin by paying homage to him.”

Breaking News: Four more girls escape from Boko Haram camp
Four girls out of the 168 students of Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, that were abducted by Boko Haram in April, have escaped.
The Chairman, Chibok Local Government Area, Mr. Bana Lawan, announced this on Tuesday in Abuja at a one-day stakeholders meeting for validation of draft humanitarian response plan for the abducted girls. The meeting was organised by the National Emergency Management Agency.
Lawan, who was represented by the Director for Personnel and Management, Mr. Musa Elijah, said the number of escapees had risen to 57 as against 53, while 164 girls were still held by the terrorist group.
anxiously waiting for the safe return of their children. Except for the unfortunate situation where two of the parents have passed on. They were known to have BP (blood pressure) issues, although I am not a medical expert, but they will not be opportune to welcome back their daughters.
“Latest report reaching us is that instead of 53, those that have escaped are now 57 and those remaining are 164 and not 168 as before. This is out of the 221 girls that were abducted.”
Lawan explained that it was not all those who registered for the Senior School Certificate Examination in the school that stayed back.
“Those that registered for the SSCE are not all that sat for the exam. Over 500 registered and those who had relatives around decided to move to various places like Kaduna and Maiduguri to write the exams. Those that were left with no relations decided to stay back to take the risk and among them 221 were abducted.”
The chairman said the moral of the girl child in the North-East was low as most of them were discouraged.
“The school in particular has been existing for long and the quality of education in it has been diminishing. So I want to appeal to the Federal Government, through NEMA and the presidential committee, to intervene in rebuilding the school,” he added.

BREAKING NEWS: Jonathan Declares Amnesty For Boko Haram
Minister of Youth Development, Mr. Boni Haruna, on Thursday disclosed that President Goodluck Jonathan has announced amnesty for members of the Boko Haram sect as parts of his administration’s youths-friendly programmes and policies.
Haruna disclosed this while giving an overview of youth’s position in the present administration’s transformation agenda at a special event tagged “A day with young leaders of Nigeria” to mark the nation’s Democracy Day in Abuja.
The minister said series of integration programmes have been lined up for members of the sect who would surrender their arms and embrace peace.
He therefore called on them to embrace the government’s gesture.
The minister said, “President Goodluck Jonathan has also declared amnesty for members of the Boko Haram sect.
“Series of integration programmes have been lined up for the members of the sect who would surrender their arms and embrace peace.
“Let me use this opportunity on behalf of the Federal Government, to call on the members of the Boko Haram sect to embrace the government’s gesture and key to amnesty programme.”
He recalled that in the wake of youth restiveness in the Niger Delta, the government came up with a development programme which provided an opportunity for the youth to express themselves and have a meaningful life.
Haruna said although the amnesty programme was a fallout of a bitter national security, its effect on the youth had been profound.
He disclosed that 30,000 youths have benefitted from the programme which has seen beneficiaries transforming from militants to wealth creators, employers of labour and skilled citizens.
Jonathan, while answering questions from youths who attended the programme, said military alone was incapable of stopping terrorism or any kind of radicalism.
He said terrorism could not succeed in any community without local supports.
He stressed the need for people who are respected by the insurgents to join hands with government to persuade them to desist.
The President said, “Terror succeeds with local support. It will be difficult for terror to thrive where people reject it. It is a major challenge to all of us.
“Military alone cannot stop terror or any radicalism. Terrorists have people they respect, they have community, traditional and opinion leaders they respect. All of us can deradicalise them.
“We will through persuasive activities encourage people to shun violence.”
He said his government was already working out the modalities for reintroducing moral education into school curriculum.
This, he said, would assist in re-orientation the young people in order to distinguish between right and wrong things.
Jonathan promised that his administration would continue to encourage young people because they are no longer leaders of tomorrow but of today.
He said youths are already leading because they decide who rules at all levels of government by virtue of their population which he put at 60 per cent of the electorates.
The President also reiterated his position that the nation’s income distribution was skewed.
While saying that government was working hard to redistribute wealth, he added that one of the emphasis of the government is to encourage self-employment.

Jonathan orders “total war” on Boko Haram
The president said his government remains open to unconditional renouncing of terrorism President Goodluck Jonathan on Thursday vowed “total war” against extremist sect, Boko Haram, ordering a full-scale operation to rid Nigeria of terrorists and end the reign of impunity. In a speech Thursday, marking Democracy Day, the president said Nigeria’s unity and stability as well as the protection of lives and property are non-negotiable. “I am determined to protect our democracy, our national unity and our political stability, by waging a total war against terrorism,” the president said. “The unity and stability of our country, and the protection of lives and property are non-negotiable. I have instructed our security forces to launch a full-scale operation to put an end to the impunity of terrorists on our soil.” The president’s speech came seven weeks after Boko Haram militants abducted more than 250 girls from a secondary school in Chibok, Borno State. The girls remain in captivity despite an international support to help free them. Boko Haram has threatened to sell or marry the girls off if the government fails to release its fighters, detained in across the country. The group has killed 12,000 people since 2009, and has continued in its reign of terror despite emergency rule in Borno, Adamawa and Yobe States. The group stepped up its attacks after the kidnapping of the girls drew international attention, killing hundreds in multiple car bombs in Kano and Jos, Plateau State. “With the support of Nigerians, our neighbours and the international community, we will reinforce our defence, free our girls and rid Nigeria of terrorists,” Mr Jonathan said. The president said his administration has run out of patience and was ready to unleash “total war” against terrorism and the perpetrators. He said the activities of terror groups in the country have caused the citizenry and the nation debilitating pains and horror, particularly the abduction of schoolgirls in Chibok, Borno. “It is now 45 days since the horrifying abduction of the college girls of Chibok. I share the deep pain and anxiety of their parents and guardians. I assure them once again that government will continue to do everything possible to bring our daughters home,” the he said. Mr. Jonathan, however, said that government would be open to dialogue and reconciliation with any one or group willing to genuinely renounce terror. “My government, while pursuing security measures, will explore all options, including readiness to accept unconditional renunciation of violence by insurgents,” he said. “Government will also ensure their de- radicalization, rehabilitation and re-integration into the broader society.” The president underscored the need for all Nigerians to remain united to win the war against terrorism, adding that Nigerians from all sections of the country, including Christians, Muslims, farmers, fishermen, herdsmen, teachers, lawyers, clergy or clerics, the rich and the poor must work together to fight a common enemy. “The war against terror may be difficult, but the days of peace will come again. Terror is evil; nowhere in history has evil endured forever. “The menace of Boko Haram will surely come to an end. I believe that because of your prayers, your courage, hard work, faith and sacrifice, we will ultimately prevail over the terrorists and all other evil forces.” He commended the Armed Forces for the supreme price they have paid so far in confronting insecurity, urging Nigerians to always appreciate them, rather than castigate them. He urged Nigerians to continue to show confidence in the military’s ability win the war against terror, pointing out that there was no doubt that, with the support of Nigerians, the country’s neighbours and the international community, the country would reinforce her defence, free the girls and rid Nigeria of terrorists.

Must Read: Reasons to Stop Using Divorce as a Problem Solving Tool
So let me make this crystal clear to everyone…if you’re going through problems in your marriage like the ones mentioned above; or if your spouse won’t listen to you, is too controlling, isn’t freaky enough, or won’t communicate with you, let me tell you like I told all of them:
1. STOP Using divorce as a Problem Solving Tool!
Divorce is not a problem solving tool. It is a marriage ending tool. And you don’t solve problems within your marriage by ending your marriage. That’s like getting a cut on your leg and amputating it to treat the wound.
Do couples get divorced? Of course they do. Is divorce sometimes necessary? Yes indeed. Even Jesus gave just cause for divorce under certain circumstances (I’m not discussing that topic now, but if you want some references, see Matthew 19:1-12 and Mark 10:1-12).
2. STOP Using the Threat of Divorce as Leverage to Extract Compliance!
If you want to stay married and not end it; or if you want to solve the problems within your marriage and not escape from them…then you must STOP considering divorce as the solution to your problem. Especially those of you in your second marriage…because you have precedent. You must STOP using the threat of divorce as leverage to extract compliance. You are being manipulative and using coercion to get what you want. And that’s evil.
3. STOP Using Divorce as an Excuse Not to Mature as a Man or Woman!
Grow up! Become a loving husband and loving wife. Be more understanding an empathetic of your spouse’s thoughts and preferences. You don’t always have to have your way. That’s selfish and you’re devaluing your spouse.
4. STOP Using Divorce as an Excuse to Quit When Marriage is Harder Than You Think it Should Be!
It’s only harder than you think it should be because you have a pre-defined level of effort you planned on exerting. And now that the demands of marriage require you to learn more and grow more…you want to quit. STOP using divorce as an excuse to quit! Use the fact that you’re married as an excuse to find a resolution!
Yes…it’s hard. Yes…she makes you mad. Yes…he hurt you. Yes…her children are coming between you and your wife. Yes he violated your trust.
If you want to fix it…and not end it, then take divorce out of the equation and get some help.
Fa-real tho…the reason why some of you married couples can’t fix these problems is because you don’t know how. I mean…really…who taught you how to solve marital problems. Your mother? Your father? Some workbook you read in premarital counseling? There are a host of professionals, relationship coaches, ministries, etc… that are dedicated to helping couples work through their problems and keep their marriage together. Do this for me…use them! Set aside your pride and use them! What do you have to lose…but your marriage.
So for those who are going through some ‘issuzzz’…but want their marriage to work, cut out the divorce talk. It’s not a problem solving tool. It’s a marriage ending tool.

1. STOP Using divorce as a Problem Solving Tool!
Divorce is not a problem solving tool. It is a marriage ending tool. And you don’t solve problems within your marriage by ending your marriage. That’s like getting a cut on your leg and amputating it to treat the wound.
Do couples get divorced? Of course they do. Is divorce sometimes necessary? Yes indeed. Even Jesus gave just cause for divorce under certain circumstances (I’m not discussing that topic now, but if you want some references, see Matthew 19:1-12 and Mark 10:1-12).
2. STOP Using the Threat of Divorce as Leverage to Extract Compliance!
If you want to stay married and not end it; or if you want to solve the problems within your marriage and not escape from them…then you must STOP considering divorce as the solution to your problem. Especially those of you in your second marriage…because you have precedent. You must STOP using the threat of divorce as leverage to extract compliance. You are being manipulative and using coercion to get what you want. And that’s evil.

#EndASUPStrike: Federal Polytechnic Bida ASUP Chapter Suspends Strike
ASUP strike has been suspended by the ASUP chapter of the Federal Polytechnic, Bida. This was contained in a memo issued by the leadership of the Union. We reported to you earlier that the Federal Polytechnic, Jigawa, ASUP Chaper called off the 10-month old strike.
Bida Polytechnic Pulls out of ASUP Strike
1.0 Sequel to the series of appellate meetings held by the Management of the Polytechnic with the Leadership of the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP), Bida Chapter, including the interactive meeting held with the same group by the Chairman of the Polytechnic Governing Council (His Excellency, Col. Theophilus O. Bamigboye) on May 7, 2014, for the Union to at least suspend the lingering National strike (like many others had done) to enable the Polytechnic commence and complete the Second Semester of year 2012/2013 Academic session. Management met on Friday May 16, 2014 to review the non-response by the Union to all the pleas and to critically look at the impact of the strike as it affects all facet of life in the Federal Polytechnic, Bida, most especially the students and staff of the Institution.
Consequently, Management has resolved that to avoid total collapse of this Institution, all staff on strike should suspend their actions immediately and resume work to enable the Polytechnic, at least, commence and conclude the year 2012/2013 Second Semester as it had been confirmed that this Polytechnic is lagging behind all the other 22 Federal Polytechnics in the country in all spheres of Academic activities.
2.0 The action by the management is premised on the following:
a) It has been observed that the National strike has been lingering on for more than necessary despite genuine intervention by well-meaning individuals and groups such as the Committee of Chairmen of Federal Polytechnic Governing Councils, COHEADS, students, Emirate Council and others. While the Management shares the sentiments of the Unions for fighting a just cause, the impact of the strike could no longer be borne by the Federal Polytechnic, Bida and God forbids, if action is not taken now, it may lead to the total collapse of the system here.
b) It has been confirmed that currently, some of the Federal Polytechnics did not join or had suspended their participation in the on-going strike, to attend to their peculiar challenges (similar to what is obtainable in Bida) – such Polytechnics include Auchi, Bali, Damaturu, Offa, Kebbi, Ede, Ilaro, Ado-Ekiti, to mention just eight. Also about twenty of the Federal Polytechnics had concluded their 2012/2013 Academic sessions before joining the strike, unlike the situation in this Polytechnic.
c) Management notes that admissions of candidates for the 2013/2014 for ND and HND had been done and almost all the admitted candidates had paid the Acceptance fees. JAMB had even released the results of year 2014/2015 UTME. This is a dilemma for the system.
d) All the scholarship proposals made available to the students of this institution by the Telecommunication companies such as MTN for 2013/2014 session would now be missed by our brilliant students as we shall have no result to present.
3.0 In order to ameliorate the effect of the recently suspended allowances on our staff, the Chairman on behalf of the Governing Council had on May 7, 2014 graciously directed that the allowances be reviewed and reinstated immediately. This, the Management had done in conjunction with the leadership of ASUP and a copy of the reviewed allowances made available as appropriate.
4.0 Management Directive
In arriving at its directives therefore, Management considered the plight of the innocent students who have suffered greatly from the ongoing strike (in addition to the set-back to their future career), coupled with the fact that this Polytechnic (which has standard) has not even commenced the second semester of 2012/2013 Academic session.
Also Management resolved to take all actions and steps to ensure the survival of this Great Institution from impending collapse bearing in mind that the corporate existence of this institution is the responsibility of all.
Management therefore directs that ALL STAFF ON STRIKE IN THIS POLYTECHNIC should their actions and resume work immediately. Such staff are to submit all relevant information required in the Template with their Heads of Department or School Officer between Monday May 26, and Wednesday May 28, 2014.
On behalf of the Rector, I wish to thank all staff for their show of concern at this trying time.

Three Things That Can Destroy Your Relationship/Marriage
There are many factors you
need to avoid if you are to
preserve your relationship/
marriage. Below, we'll talk
about three but important
things to take into
consideration.
LACK OF TRUST:
Trust is the key to every
successful relationship. You
should be able to trust your
partner in every situation. Once
you both can share the same
trust, happiness, peace and love
flows and you both have little to
fear for. Without trust, anger
and quarrel steps in and these
are factors that kills a
relationship/marriage fast.
One thing you should also know
is that trust is earned, not
commanded. Do the right things
which will assure your partner
that you can stay faithful to
him/her and also capable of
evaluating and handling
complex situations.
BRIDGE IN COMMUNICATION:
Communication in this context
does not mean phone calls or
text messages. Communication
here refers to how you relate
with your partner. This matters
a lot because communication is
the key to understanding.
Body language, romantic
interest and sexual mood should
also be well communicated.
Your wife needs to know when
you're in the mood for sex. She's
your wife, not your sex slave so
proper communication in this
aspect will preserve mutual
respect.
How do you communicate with
your partner when he/she is
depressed? How do you
communicate with him/her
when you're in a sour or
devastated mood? Examine this
and amend where necessary.
INFIDELITY:
This is simply the act of being
unfaithful to your partner. You
might be successfully cheating
but then, have you asked
yourself what your partner's
reaction would be if he/she
finds out? Is he/she the type
that would give you another
chance? I'm sure you haven't
asked yourself these questions.
There is no joy in infidelity.
Staying faithful is the surest way
of maintaining a forever
relationship/marriage. Be
advised!
