This mattress can tell if your spouse is cheating, will you buy it?


I saw this on Nigeriana today and I found it quite hilarious. 


So, Durmet a Spanish company recently created the world's first ever cheater catching mattress that is capable of detecting unusual actions on the bed through installed censors and a contact zone detector.

This means if your husband or wife executed some action while you are away, your bed will tell you when you return. Talk about technological aproko!

I wonder if that thing will work in a place like Nigeria though. I mean, there are so many options to explore if you have cheating in your blood. What are the odds that you will take your cheating partner home to your matrimonial bed? We need some more personal detector that is probably attached to the person's body- a chip or something. A device that can tell you where your spouse is and what s/he is doing right now. Like a mobile CCTV installed on your spouse's body. That kind of thing. 

It was just last week some lady on one of Jerry Springer's 'let-me-help-you-scatter-your-home' shows confessed to installing an app on her baby daddy's phone that allows her see his text messages as he types and receives them. I'm like the hustle is real mehn!

Don't be surprised, this expensive smarttress will have an amazing welcome. Many will buy it because it is now cheaper to spend hard end money monitoring your better half than it is to trust the person you pledged your life to.

Got me wondering, why is trust such an expensive thing to invest in today's world? Why can't we just believe each other and leave it at that? Why do we go to such great lengths to prove that the people that claim to love us actually don't. The first thinking is to suggest that people should not bother to marry people they can not trust. But then again, trust has been broken so many times one has to be careful before offering such advice.

What I have found to be true though, a secret that has worked for those who have gone ahead and will keep working for me. At the moment of truth when you want to make a choice of who to trust with your love and life, don't decide for that man because you are sure he loves you. Nah, decide for him because you are sure he loves God.

I have hurt the people I love timelessly so I know it's possible to love someone and hurt them. I also know you can love someone this minute and hate them the next. Think about all the exes you once thought you could not live without. But I know God's love is inexhaustible such that any one enveloped by it will be consumed so much that to do anything that will reduce the fellowship will be difficult for him. It's such men that can say like Joseph, how can I do this grievous thing and sin against God! 

Then it wont matter whether the spouse is good to him or not or how attractive the offer is or how lonely he is on that business trip, he wont want any bridge between him and the God he loves, It's that love that will keep him.

As it goes, those kind of people naturally partner with people like them. So you want a spouse you can guarantee will never cheat? Fall in love with God, He'll give you one of His sons or daughters and s/he will do you good all  the days of your life.

So, what do you think? Is the smarttress a welcome invention? W
ho's likely to get caught more, wives or husbands? Share your opinion in the comment box.

Toodles!

A WIFE IS LIKE A CAR!!!

I love Nigerians!   We are the definition of the phrase: ‘your brother’s keeper’. We watch out for others so much it is almost too much.   It could be almost annoying at times, at other times it could be the saving grace in certain situations. For instance, in my quest to get to work this morning, I had to wait a few minutes at car-wash bus-stop for the God-sent who was going to help me to work. As I waited, a young woman driving one of those extremely feminine Beetle cars parked and got out of her car.   She hurriedly opened the bonnet and discovered the car was overheating. Leaving the bonnet open, she went to her car to get a bottle of water. She was about to pour the water into the carburetor   when one of the LAWMA officials   who had already crossed the road to go wherever it is he was going hurriedly crossed back screaming: “madam, no pour the water, no pour the water!”. Shocked, she paused to look. In no time, the man was standing by her and exp...

WHAT NO ONE TELLS THE BRIDE

You know how politicians and politically aware people eagerly await a new government’s 100 days in office? Publications highlighting the government’s achievements in the time frame, bearing assurances and fresh promises to silence wailing wailers flood the media. 100 days in office is usually a big deal. Since my husband is so into politics and so not into anniversaries, I decided to ignore our 3 months month-niversary and celebrate 100 days in marriage instead. Well, it didn’t quite work. And that’s perhaps where I should start. There are several things the bride does not hear before she becomes a wife. Many she is outrightly not told, others she is too happy or too busy to understand. Then she gets married and after the long awaited event, her ‘eyes clear’.  Sometimes, the giddy feeling lasts till the honeymoon is over, but when she returns home with her husband, reality hits. Even when the new wife has the most understanding husband and uninterested far-away in-...

YOU SABI WHO IM BE BEFORE???

Call me weird but I enjoy bus rides. Yes, I do not mean comfortable air conditioned buses that belong to my father, brother, company or whoever you imagine I would know who might have a bus. I mean Danfo buses! Ok, I am certain I would like it more if the seats weren’t as many and it didn’t carry so many people at the same time. It would get even better if the windows actually work and the doors don’t fall off in motion. Yes, it would be really great if we didn’t have to almost lap each other all through the ride and the half naked conductor did not have to hang on the bus just next to you with your nose just around his hair ridden abdomen. Can people just stop sleeping in buses? I mean even if you have to sleep, can you do it with some finesse, I don’t even know your name so why should I want your head on my shoulder or the souvenir of your spittle on my shirt? Then, can you be kind enough to keep your baby in check; it’s just not fair for him or her to cry all through the tr...
