It's hard finding a Nigerian woman abroad. There are millions of Nigerian girls, but seldom can you find a woman. Language? They can't speak. Food? They can't cook. Basic Nigerian values? They don't have. I'm not generalizing. As a woman, I am telling you that there are some Nigerian "women" who embarrass the hell out of me.

However, the same goes for their male counterparts. Some Nigerian boys complain, they're arrogant, and they do try to be controlling (I'm speaking from experience). I still like to believe that people can be in a loving relationship without one party needing to control the other.

It's not just men that go home anyway, although they do it more. A friend of mine, her fiancé is in Nigeria and will be joining her here soon for marriage.

To each his or her own really. They can marry whoever they like. They'll jam many of the same obstacles they jam here at home. grin

Lol @recommendation. It is so true,almost every girl in nigeria that has gotten a proposal from guy abroad was recommended. This brings a lot of problem because these two hardly know each other. In a case whereby the guy actually thinks ths girl is after his money or his abroad life while the girl also fears giving in to him so she wouldn't become the Nigeria wife while he works and sends money to her while he spends time with a white woman and his kids.
You can only meet your type of person. You are abroad and claims that all naija girls abroad are bad,it is just the same way naija girls abroad complain that all naija guys abroad are bad. So who is spoiling who? undecided

look no further, the bolded is the answer.

And if you Loretta look at deeply, you' all understand why its so
"no matter how you are,as long as you were raised in a Nigerian home,you can't be as bad as the girls over here. You need to see what they are doing. None of them is wife material. They can't cook, disrespectful, wild, unsubmissive "

All of the above apply to Nigeria women too
Most of the women I have had meaningful relationship non Nigerians; Do cook, clean the house, park my lunch for work,
make sure there are always the types of sneak I eat available at home
Marriage is luck and blesses

adaobi123: Are we talking about Nigerian men who have moved abroad or Nigerian men who have been brought up abroad ?
I guess both. But we have to admit that those born and raised abroad will have a better disposition towards women born and raised there too. But in some cases they might still be discriminatory
Re: Nigerian Men Abroad Prefer Marrying From Home? - Why? by Nobody: 8:33pm On Dec 02, 2013
Wow
If that's the case,it's damn bad. Smh

"better disposition" Please define
Sorry to let you know that we have evil in all place
It is about values
I know of people their friends felt that his person cannot marry a Nigerian woman
He has adapted to the Culture of the country he lives in
Re: Nigerian Men Abroad Prefer Marrying From Home? - Why? by Nobody: 8:46pm On Dec 02, 2013
I get what you're saying but what I meant by better disposition is that a man who was raised abroad will be used to assertive females as compared to a man who was raised with the belief that women are meant to be pliant and agreeable. Meaning men raised abroad are more likely to chose women raised abroad than men raised at home

Some girls here don't like naija men who moved abroad. They'll be like "ewww his nigerian accent is so strong I don't like it. Hes so fresh (fresh basically means JJC)" Or they'll be like "omg the way he acts is like some villagee" blah blah

Naija girls here have a very high expectations. They want guys that will take them to soho and drink expensive drinks. They'll be looking for an idris elba when they are attracting nkem owoh's. I guess that's why a lot of naija men are looking for their brides elsewhere. But I'm not saying all girls abroad are like this though, some are willing to date anyone.

It's very simple. You are more likely to find a partner you can dominate in a third world country compared to the western world.

Men sometimes get threatened dating successful females so it's necessary for them to get that woman who will make them feel like king kong

Too bad embarassed

Re: Nigerian Men Abroad Prefer Marrying From Home? - Why? by Nobody: 9:12pm On Dec 02, 2013
Probably why the men feel like coming home is the solution. Smh

I now tell young people to look for love in college
or After College give yourself two to three years
Don't look for a Nigeria woman but look for love, happiness and peace of mind
Nigerians use to want to marry Nigerian woman because they can come back home together
Lot of things has change over the last 15 year
Nigerian men need to start thinking different too

How on earth do you expect this woman to behave once she arrives at God's own country since she now understands and is fully aware of her rights as a woman.

Lot of the issue in Nigerian failed marriages are not about right
secretive, lies
Me, me -selfish
Controlling
money
My family - forgiving her first priority is her kids and husband

If the movies represent the black girls in Western society correctly, it's no surprise. No man cares to live under the same roof with a saucy woman or a woman with no care for feminine responsibilities. And whatever else may be said about home-trained African women, they are not known for sauciness or feminine irresponsibility...although times appear to be changing even there.
