Cooking, doing his laundry and cleaning his house are not going to buy a ring for me if he doesn't like me, he is going to dump me anyways, so what is the point?

True2myself24: I wouldnt do it. There's nothing wrong with helping out on the weekends with cooking, but the rest really? Playing wife is not the same as being a wife. Why buy the cow if the milk is free.

I will never buy garri without testing to know if it is Ijebu garri or Bendel garri or Ibo garri. If you cant show me your domestic skills why will I ever think of taking you home to mama becos mama too will test you. Remember girl's parents too test and investigate the guy directly or indirectly
No morally upright parents want someone like Olebode George, Tinubu, Rasheed Maina, Tony Aneni as in-law. I may not be sure of other parents but I am sure my parents dont want pen or gun robbers like Bamanga Tukur, resurrected Inpatience Jonathan, James Ibori, Gbenga Daniel as in-law. No parent will also want naked Tiwa Savage or Tonto Dick as their son's wife.

Summary: show me your skills and I will tell you who you are.

now we know why enough naija girls of marriage-able age are not yet married. . .
you no fit do house chores, simple house chores ( one that always serves as an avenue of highway to a right thinking guys heart ), but you are good at bis, brazilian hair, and club chores.... your time for cry of heartbreak na coming soon.
you know what a typical regular guy checks in serious girls. . .
neat
friendly
courteous
respectful
comtempted
good cook
house keeper ( home maker )
one who does the right things without been told ( it shows proper home training and up bringing )...

if you like no do am, when time to choose 1 out of the many he get for him hand....... you have played yourself out of the equation.
dont be fooled, guys appreciate a helpful girlfriend that does house chores, especially without been told, tho not an obligation.......................that might just be the yard stick he is looking out for.
come to think of it, you have nothing to lose here, its part of your training and personal development.....

and if it still continues after marriage, i no wan hear you cry say ekaette get belle for your husband oooooooooo.

My dear, God bless you. You don't enjoy a relationship through principle. There should be a place of you shifting ground and that is called love.

If you have this guy who can stake his life for you. Defends you. You know how unsafe you feel without him being around. there is a problem, all you need is just for your baby to say , "It is well." Tell me what is too much ?

Please don't follow all this anonymous users that scream God Forbid. I know their type. The last girl that claimed she will never play with a guy with her penny confessed to me that her ex-boyfriend is oweing her 1.9million after they broke up.

Follow your heart. If he is worth it, u know.
My dear, only a foolish person would read something on Nl and would want to practice it in Real Land when what you have is working for you. No two relationships is the same and we must both be ready to sacrifice to make it work. I remember when I was in 300L, a friend told me I was behaving like a married woman following my guy about. She said I don't have freedom to do what I like or go about. i don't accept dates from other guys etc. I just looked at her and smiled. I know where I am going to, the kind of guy I want etc and don't need to be distracted. I don't subscribe to her idea of fun : wearing mini skirts to parties, jumping from man to man etc. and I rather behave like a married woman to a humble man who pampers, honors and respects me than be a 'big' girl hopping about.

Freecocoa bought up a good point.

For all the desperate girls playing slave for their boffy,Mehta makes you think he's going to put a wrong on it? grin lmao.

If a man really wants to determine if you're wifey material, let him spend some time at your home. Let him see how you manage YOUR home. Going to his house to "perform" is unnecessary if all he wants to determine if your ability; if you're able.

Don't let these lazy azz Nigerian men, who are spoilt by gender expectations, to determine your value based on how much work you do n his home. Lol

bukatyne: @OP: Dammytosh made a very worthy point: The question is not if it's right or wrong; The question is 'Is he worth it?' Before I met my fiancee, I don't do house chores for guys as a principle. However, when we started, there was nothing he couldn't do for me domestically and in every way. I was open to change and I did everything worth doing for him to. Naturally, we do all chores together because it's so much fun. When I wanted to relocate b'cos of my job, he looked for the house, cleaned it and we scrubed it together. He would soon get his apartment and I would be more than glad to do those chores. While we
were serving, he always cooked elaborately when I was coming and reciprocated the gesture. Love is about sharing and putting each other's needs above ours. So the question really is: 'Is your guy worth it?'

My dear,u hv made more point dan evryone here put togeda. Most of dis babes claiming to do heaven n earth in d name of doing house chores,how sure are we dt u really do dem abi ur just claiming superwoman.

Na wa o. Firstly it is not a girlfriends job to cook and clean after a man. If he can't do it himself then he should get a maid to do that for him or in fact marry her then he can get a personal cook/cleaner 24/7. I think it is ok helping your man out as it is something that is nice to do but he should not expect that just because i am his gf i have to wash his clothes etc. Personally, I don't mind cooking whenever am with my bf because i enjoy cooking but am lucky that i don't have a lazy man. He does not expect me to clean after himself( am not his mom) as he does it himself and even when cooking he helps with dishes. If you want your girlfriend to act like a wife then make her your wife.

ALL THOSE GUYS GOING ABOUT SPENDING AND DOING HUSBANDLY THINGS FOR THEIR BABES, i sorry for una.
IF YOU THINK IT WILL STOP THEM FROM BED HOPPING AND LEAVING YOUR BROKE AZZ IT WON'T.
If a girl wants to know how GENEROUS and CAPABLE YOU ARE AS A MAN, let her watch how you spend for your mum and siblings and how your home is equipped with modern gadgets and how baffed up you are.

I really love meeting Agarachas and show casing just how selfish I can be.

Yet not doing the chores at his home has a negative impact on my wifey material. So think about it.
If its not much of an issue, threads like this wont sprint up.


The question that no one has yet to answer is what does man do to reciprocate the so called wifey material.

Can you imagine, me that should be doing my own laundry at home, is expected to be washing one boys dirty laundry. Mtchewwww cool

I came to his house to spend quality time together, not to do no wifey material nonsense that like many societal construct, defines womanhood.

If I have that grown azz puzziii, I no be woman again? Let me hear word.

If he cooks for me, we can do the dishes together nauuuuuu. Na who go stay with a lazyyy man with no wifey material sef.

My boffy must have the wifey material because no one wants to marry a lazy, dirty, resourceless man.
