Why Do Nigerians Assume She Is Your Girl? by Nobody: 10:38pm On Sep 08, 2013 |
Nigerians have this very bad amebo habit of assuming that because they see you having lunch or walking with a girl, that she is your babe. - cue them Talking in their gossip - cue church members who see you asking when you will marry her. - cue wannabe-knowitalls putting sand in your garri by telling another girl you're actually interested in that "he already has a girlfriend" when she tries to research you. - cue them thinking you are a dirty player when they see you again hanging with another girl ...seriously people. |

kandiikane: Not just nigerians. Unless you mean africans as a whole? Honestly, whites understand the concept of "going out to hang out" more than nigerians/africans. They are not as quick to jump to dumbass conclusions. If a typical nigerian girl sees you and another girl together hanging out, you might as well just propose marriage to the person because that one just wont shut up about it to her coterie of friends. And thus a rumor is born... |

That's because most tyms when you are having lunch with a girl in Nigeria and outside nigeria, it is assumed there is something between you two. u cant change what people think and why does it even bother u what people r thinking? |

I keep wondering why people make things seem like Nigerians are the most crazy people on planet earth.

Why Do Nigerians Assume She Is Your Girl? Why Do Nigerians Prefer To Marry The Rich? Which Do Nigerians Prefer? People seem to think that Nigerians have a monopoly on certain types of behavior. |

Lord_Reed: I keep wondering why people make things seem like Nigerians are the most crazy people on planet earth. Here is an excerpt from a website that is not Nigerian where the folk know that a simple lunch date can easily be misunderstood. Thanks for the spelling correction. Your Japanese example there does not apply as he even used the word "date". That is a word typically reserved for romance. And what exactly is all this "self hate" nonsense you've been talking about? I don't need to hate myself to have an opinion on an experience. Are you at a point in life where you hate yourself and are trying to reflect that state to anyone who doesn't have the same opinion as you? |
Re: Why Do Nigerians Assume She Is Your Girl? by LordReed(m): 5:16pm On Sep 09, 2013 |
2buff: Constantly coming up with posts that denigrate Nigerians (of whom you are an offspring) indicates you are the one with the crisis, I am only pointing it out to you in case you are not aware of the frequency of your denigrating posts. I am Nigerian and I have no apologies for that; I will do my bit to better myself and my community regardless of the challenges. FYI the excerpt is not Japanese as it is clearly marked Toronto and its purpose is to show you that confusion over social conventions is not a Nigerian phenomenon. People all over the world do all those cues you outlined especially in conservative communities so to make a post that portrays Nigerians as excessive gossips, tattlers and busybodies is not only cringe worthy , it indicates you have an identity crisis. You may want to dissociate yourself from your heritage but c'mon you don't need to give a dog a bad name before you hang it. 1 Like |

Lord_Reed: Toronto, Japan whatever. If you actually read what you posted you will see that Japanese is his native tongue. Not important . Again, all the bloke is doing is asking a question. And he did use the word "date" so that is a conscious giveaway to anyone who hears that and it disqualifies it from the essence of this thread. Second time pointing this out but for some reason you still keep bringing it up. Quit the pointlessness. You living in Nigeria, you do not experience certain things from a multi cultural perspective as I do, so certain things are not really obvious to you. The result of my experiences from different cultural types is the content of this thread. |

daisyella: Truss me you don't have to hang out with her 2 much. If they see you, they will talk... It seems you don't understand the life cycle of rumors or have never been a victim of it. More drama and misconception is introduced the farther down the vine the rumor goes. |

This is a Nigerian forum is it not What better place to air issues or experiences with Nigerians than a Nigerian forum? 2Buffie... don't get your head swole because I ain't done yet. What you need to do is tell them nosey mofos to mind their business and let them know you are single. Stop hanging around nosey mofos. |

Re: Why Do Nigerians Assume She Is Your Girl? by LordReed(m): 6:29pm On Sep 09, 2013 |
2buff: I have explained its point and relevance to this topic, refute my explanation and stop trying to casually wave it aside. The question the man on the website (if you bothered to read it) posed was if a non romantic date could be misconstrued by outsiders. If that does not dit into this discussion then you are clearly looking for something else. So we come to another crux, I don't live in the obodo oyinbo so I am ignorant. LoL! When I say something now you'll say I am projecting. Do I need to live abroad before the lifestyle of its people are clear to me? Are you gonna honestly tell me rumor mongering does not occur in the community where you live? C'mon man that would be a story for the birds. |
Re: Why Do Nigerians Assume She Is Your Girl? by LordReed(m): 6:33pm On Sep 09, 2013 |
Mrs.Chima: This topic is not essentially 'Nigerian'. These traits are visible in almost every nation in this world so I will not agree for it to be made a unique Nigerian problem. I think we are intelligent enough to make such distinctions. |
Re: Why Do Nigerians Assume She Is Your Girl? by Nobody: 6:36pm On Sep 09, 2013 |
Lord_Reed: Perhaps not. But again, this is my experience, and thus, opinion on the matter. News too dey travel within naija community vines. Also, of all the churches I've been to here, it is only the nigerian churches that have these people who feel your marital status is something they always need to bring up. Admit whatever you want, but nigerians are nosey by culture. Period. |
Re: Why Do Nigerians Assume She Is Your Girl? by Nobody: 6:38pm On Sep 09, 2013 |

Just imagine a married man decides to treat a co worker to sm lunch and sm gossip who knw the wife will call her and tell the wife she saw the husband cheating on her. Africans as a whole,it's does not only happen to the men but women as well and the woman's own is even worse she is term as a "prostitute". 1 Like |

Lord_Reed: But he is complaining about his experiences with nosy azz Nigerians so it's all Nigerian. We can't change his experience whether you think it's intelligent or not. The facts remaibs that he is dealing with nosy azz Nigerians and need to change his circle. |
Re: Why Do Nigerians Assume She Is Your Girl? by LordReed(m): 7:01am On Sep 10, 2013 |
Mrs.Chima: His OP doesn't say "I had a nasty rumormongering experience with Nigerians" he speaks in very general terms as though all Nigerians would immediately default to gossiping also he speaks as if it is uniquely Nigerian, cue his post "Nigerians are culturally nosey". That should tell you this is not about his experience this about him trying to be 'not Nigerian'. |
