One thing I've noticed about the ladies over here is that they are more open-minded wink

If a lady likes you, stepping up and telling you how she feels is no big deal over here, unlike in naija where someone would be dying for you and would be ignoring you undecided

Another thing I noticed is that the baby-mama culture is quite normal here. ladies as young as 17 are dropping babies anyhow, and it's no big deal. One of the ladies at the store where I work is just 19 and she has two kids already shocked
Each time the "do you have a girlfriend?" question pops up, I side-step it, I no wan become baby-daddy biko. Im too young for that grin

Some days back, I witnessed what a robbery feels like.

You see, the BurgerKing location where I work has a large parking lot shared by other stores. One of them is a filling station/grocery store.

One evening, while we were in the Kitchen toiling our butts off, we heard two loud bangs go off, we dismissed it as fireworks. Not until a customer in the lobby (the place you can stay to eat your food after buying), screamed that the filling station right next to us was getting robbed! shocked
You could see the panic in the eyes of everyone present, calls were made to the police, and a squad car responded in less than a minute (no jokes). The robbers abandoned the robbery and their get away car and tried to take off on foot, it was just like an watching an action movie unfold.

The cops, noticing that there were other stores there, decided not to shoot at them, and started chasing them on foot too. By then, other patrol cars had pulled up. In no time, the boys were apprehended and walked back to the patrol car in handcuffs.

Wise decision, please avoid getting involved with such.

Focus on your studies and career and build a family at the right time with the right person.

Not only is this baby daddy business unfair on the children but when they finish you with child support bills.... it can easily derail your future plans and aspirations.

Blacks are more involved in robbery attacks and selling drugs while the whites dominate the serial killing aspect.

Sugar ants


It's when you become successful (or enter yankee and upload some pictures on social media) you'll realize why some ladies are tagged "sugar ants".

Don't get me wrong, some people are indeed honorable , but honestly, this has to be said. Some nigerian ladies have no shame, like I said in my previous post, ladies in nigeria find it hard to approach a guy first, I guess I was wrong. Some of them even go as far as sending you nudes in a bid to start up conversation. I'm thinking of deleting my Facebook account, but no, I won't let them bully me with their nude pictures.

Even the ones that were forming virgin when I was in nigeria, have started promising me pvssy, that I should come back to nigeria to see them. Each time they ask "when are you coming back?" My reply is "to do what?" grin so because you promised me pvssy, I should enter plane and start flying back to nigeria? grin pvssy no dey yankee? grin

Una dey find who una go use pregnancy and juju to tie down. God forbid bad thing. angry

Are you serious?!!

You've barely settled over here, and they are sending you nudes to the extent that your inbox is overflowing with them (some guy's dream of this to happen to them though cheesy)

Truly, success has many friends. But some of our ladies should get some sense of dignity. It's not too much to ask of them. Almost the same thing happened to a friend of mine.

She runs a small-scale NGO that caters for indigent kids and some adults. One day she announced on Facebook that a Lebanese fb friend of hers decided to financially contribute to her efforts. Guess what happened next?
Many of her friends started send him friend requests; some even had the audacity to ask him to send money to them due to one 'need' or the other.

I just shook my head. It's really disgraceful, my brother.

My brother, if someone had told me a nigerian lady would ask me out via sending me nudes to showcase her "wares" and goodies, I'd doubt it. But with what I'm seeing these days, I'm marvelled. Indeed, some people are shameless.

One thing I've also noticed is that being pretty in the USA is no big deal. Unlike in nigeria where the really pretty ladies walk around with a sense of entitlement, that's not the case over here (I guess). The ladies I've come in contact with (via social media apps like tinder) don't give two hoots about ya money. One time I had a cinema date with a black american, she actually insisted on paying for our cinema refreshments. grin i was like shocked

If na our nigerian ladies, they'd expect you to pay for everything, like they're doing you a favor by going on a date with you.

As per the dating game, I'm just testing the waters (with one foot). Here, you'd see ladies that would make you drool. Ladies whose bodies are like works of art, but on a few occassions when I tried to get close, I found out that some of them have "comma". Either they have kids already, or their baby daddy is in jail, or they have an addiction problem, or they're cam girls. grin

I'm not trying to generalize, I'm just saying (based on my experience so far).

=========

Remember, I applied for my transcript since March, my school sent it to wes and it was rejected. Right now, I'm waiting for a more detailed copy to be sent. Honestly, I can't wait to get back to school.

No mind them, they think we pick money on the ground here. That's why I called them sugar ants and not gold diggers. Sugar ants don't mind how small the sugar is. To them, all sugar na sugar.
