I was compelled to write about this after I found out that my ex got married yesterday on facebook. It wasn't surprising that she didn't tell me about it, she probably didn't want me there and I understand, the emotions could have been too much. She's Igbo.

I am from RV, PH. And I am sure we all aware of the perception and notion that Igbo women are very materialistic and money conscious, well I am here to disprove that notion or at least limit it. I have dated four (4) Igbo girls and they relatively have the same personality and I love them for it.

My first Igbo date is from Imo, I know what a beautiful woman is and this girl is effortlessly gorgeous. she was schooling at Owerri at the time. I was also schooling outside the country and we dated for three years and only saw ourselves 40% of the time, it was a wonderful experience. She was fun loving, so open minded and never asked me for anything, as a matter of fact the only physical cash I ever gave to her was for her flight ticket. Her only flaws was her temperament, she once smashed my phone. She was bitter that she was giving so much love and I cared less. I regret that till date, called her two months ago and wished I could just see her face again.

THe experience was so beautiful I was determined to date another Igbo girl and I did date two more. I am currently torn to shreds as I am in a committed relationship when I met this Igbo girl recently and she is a replica of the first without the anger issue. None of them were money conscious, the one I met now is even better, not only that she doesn't ask, she spends her own money taking us out countless times and I am just here like where did this whole idea of Igbo girls loving money came from?

OP My guy may your days be elongated

It's funny in nigeria ppl judge a whole tribe from one person's behaviour

In Nigeria many people only grow old but never grow up

Dont mind them when they mess up and the gurl leaves them they turn the story around dat she loves money too much...Igbo gurls all the way.

Every other tribe in Nigeria have this crazy misconception about ibo people. They always accuse ibos of love for money as if they themselves hate money. I have dated lots of ibo girls , both during my school days and now and I can tell u that most of them are not materialistic at all .As a matter of fact, they spend on you if they like you and are ready to wait for you as long as you show signs of marriage.

Even if the igbo girl is not into money, her FAMILY will be.
Unless it's just play you want to be playing, start marriage matter with her and her family first and you will know.

no tribe is ascribed to this


Its not all girls dat like money nah
