You would hear things like the way to have a happy family is to make a woman happy So what would make the man happy or his happiness doesnt count? |

dayokanu: You would hear things like the way to have a happy family is to make a woman happy You already gave the answer above. Making the woman happy! On a serious note, which do you hear or see more of in our society? The key to a happy family is for a man to make the woman happy or or for a woman to make the man happy? Or do you just want to pretend not to know the truth? |

chief batiatus: Any relationship where the difference either in looks, wealth, status is too wide often leads to this kind of thing, most guys love to go all the wat to woo and win a beauty quenn far beyond their level, often times you see that guy struggling to keep up. I have a neighbour that thought life would be blissful after marrying his queen of a wife, the guy has been broke since their marriage almost 2 yrs ago, he runs his gen round the clock, plays nice guy with all the ladies relatives, scale-up his lifestyle all in the bid to meet up with this beautiful lady. While I do not have anything against beautiful ladies/guys, I see no reason why anyone should go way out of his league because water always finds its level. 1 000 000 000 likes. |

Baba Oyo: What do you mean by slaving away? Have you ever had a woman crying (I mean literally crying) into your ears all night? Does that make you happy? Do you think when a woman runs up and down for a man in the house is what brings satisfaction and true happiness to a woman? I have witnessed older generation men waiting for their wife to bring their food to the table and be served like lord of the manor, and waiting for the woman to come and clear the plates after they have finished eating. And yet these men pummel or emotionally torture their wives at the slightest provocation! And yet we wonder why women are emotionally selfish. A true relationship is NOT about you. It is about US. Two becoming one. Her emotional feeling becoming yours to understand, love, appreciate and cherish. I had a cultural shock when I visited an elderly couple in Nigeria and I saw the husband sitting like a chief ordering his wife around for food. She was sweating like mad cow, and yet this man could not be bothered. I wonder how such a woman can be happy emotionally and confide in her man when all day she has been running up and down the house like a servant for him! 2 Likes |

loswhite: height of selfishness That is surely your opinion. Even though it does not make any sense to me. But you are entitled to what suits your idiosyncracy. nenergy:You sound naive. You expect a woman to open to you on a platter of gold huh? Every woman has her insecurities. Once you are able to make her feel secured within her insecurities, she opens up. Men are often times never patient with a lady. Once a guy wants a lady, she just immediately has to open up. And when she does bulge to your request, guys automatically think she is forming and being emotionally selfish...bla bla bla. In the real world, it does not work that way! At least, I speak from my experiences. Agency4homes:LOL!!! |

I don't want to believe Baba Oyo thinks a man doing stuff for his woman is slaving. Nah. ...Baba Oyo is too enlightened for that. Right Baba Rere? |
Re: Are Most Women Emotionally Selfish? by dayokanu(m): 11:28pm On Apr 08, 2013 |
Pataki: So what is the solution? Is it for the man to start slaving to please the woman or for both to strive to please the other? |

Re: Are Most Women Emotionally Selfish? by Pataki: 11:35pm On Apr 08, 2013 |
dayokanu: Firstly, the term "slaving" in a relationship is dehumanising to whichever gender it is applied upon. And oh yes, let us not deceive ourselves especially in Nigeria, it is the women who are mostly slaving away!!! To answer your question, it is a give and take process in a relationship. If you don't want an emotionally selfish lady, then start treating her the same way you would treat yourself! |
Re: Are Most Women Emotionally Selfish? by dayokanu(m): 11:39pm On Apr 08, 2013 |
If ones side job is to make the other side happy without consideration for his own happiness then its no way different from slavery. Slaves make masters Happy, Masters dont care about whatever makes slaves happy or it isnt important if Slaves are happy or not as long as masters are happy Pataki: This was your first post it only states that a man needs to be ready to give everything to make a woman happy and never stated that women have any responsibility in making their partner happy So if a mans job is to make a woman happy, Who now makes the man happy? 2 Likes |

Slaves make masters Happy, Masters dont care about whatever makes slaves happy or it isnt important if Slaves are happy or not as long as masters are happy LOL! Does a nagging, crying woman make you happy or sad? The simple truth is that: make her happy and satisfied, and watch her move mountains and hills even to the point of sheer stupidity just to see her man satisfied! |
Re: Are Most Women Emotionally Selfish? by dayokanu(m): 11:53pm On Apr 08, 2013 |
Pataki: LOL! Does a sad man make a woman happy? The same thing can be said about a woman, Women make men happy and he would do anything for you, Empty his account, even take bullet for you like jack did in Titanic. So the key to a man being happy is to make a woman happy. If you dont make a woman happy theres no way you can be happy I think thats as self centered as any opinion can get Isnt that what this thread is about? Being emotionally selfish How about both give to make the other side happy? Thats too much to ask from selfish people i guess 1 Like |

Apparently, my english teacher did not do a good job as I don't understand the meaning of this "emotional selfishness". But to the incidence the op explained, it's simple enough! The lady does not like him that way. Some friendships are not even meant to be mingled with romance aaaaatttt aaaaaallllllll and it's like that friendship is one of them. Pataki, are you double |

Blame the society and media for this rot in relationship division. Unconsciously/consciously, boys/girls mirror the demonstration of male/female xters respectively in stories from tv,movies,music lyrics etc when they attain adulthood. Our nollywood movies for case study are full of same old clichè: He has to ask her out, arrange d dates,proposes, makes all the phonecalls and even in marriage he initiates everything evn as simple as a kiss. Nvr in nollywood would u see admirable female leads, role models for young girls play a more emotionally selfless role by making more of the moves to show her true love for the love interest. This sends a message, telling young girls or women to be more and more passive and not open with their feelings for their guys, be he husband or boyfriend. Evn in hollywood, movies with assertive, emotionally selfless actress in a relationship are as rare as a hen 's tooth. It is no strange therefore why men continue to complain that "she doesnt call me,she always give me a cold shoulder,she nvr hug or kiss me first, nor try to make me laugh,she hates me despite what i do for her"whether am worried or not, she doesnt care". Yet u might be surprised she doesnt want to dissolve the relationship. So long guys, so long a search for affection. We r made to believe women need love/affection and should be loved,pampered and worshipped. While we r made to believe that men need no love/care and are good with rejection and lovelessness simply because they are emotionless or with no feelings. But to hell with these sick beliefs, media,society or culture. Women inspite of all these are aware of this emotional injustice they deliver to men and can do something positive about it, but would rather stick with the current trend since with it, they have everything to their advantage,seem to even enjoy it and find it much easier to let him do all the work than help him out with it. A lot of men (mostly traditional men) are fine with emotionally selfish women but for me i have a different problem. Emotionally selfish women dont work for me,u can name whatever she 's got. Women, not only u need love, oh yeah, some guys do. 1 Like |

Pataki: You just described how my friend's husband treats her. She don suffer no b small. Got to a point I couldn't stand it, I had to stop visiting her. The only thing her husband wants from her is food and sex. No intimate conversation, he believes his wife is a dunce. Infact, I pity her no be small.He can't fill her emotionally cup. He can't support her when she's sick or needs support. |
