@ guys who have patience THANK YOU

well as a woman its hard finding the right outfit , with the right fitting, for the right ocassion
thats why i can spend 6 hours + at the mall ,
and with all the different stores and different clothes it takes time

@ us ladies that like to spend lots of time shopping
please dont stress ur man out if he says that he doesnt want to come with u to the mall.

dont really like it but hey i gotta do it, bUT as a brother man u gotta realize that u spending 3 hours when a lady tells u 15 minutes , that drives me nuts

don't really like it but hey i gotta do it, bUT as a brother man u gotta realize that u spending 3 hours when a lady tells u 15 minutes , that drives me nuts

why do u have to ?

If there's one thing my boyfriend enjoys,it is shopping, He really loves shopping and no weekend passes by without him visiting BG Mart for his household items,Mandilas,park and shop, He dosen't see it as stress at all.

Why not.Of course I'll go shopping with him.Shebi he's going to foot the bills.

hell yea we give each other style tips lol, cuz we stay fresh like that !!!!!!!!!!

as a chick i dont even like going shopping with girls, i cant imagine why men would want to do the same

Of course! He loves fashion (he's not bisexual) lol. He even gives me fashion tips but he dosent follow them so i have to give him my fashion tips lol. But hey i wouldnt mind going shopping with him and he wouldnt mind going shopping with me - at least he dosent say it out loud.

I don't have problem going shopping with babes! what kills me is why do we have to stop and look/test shoes, look/check out hand bags, belts, glasses while she know very well that she only need a top to go with the skirt, shoe, and bag that she bought the day before?

And honestly I just can't stand a babe telling me I'm inpatient after 6hours+ in tha mall!

most times, she asks me to go with her intentionally becos she knows i'll refuse her and try and make up by giving her more money, i tried a surprise recently by deciding to follow her,i tot she would be angry but she was happy. i really suffered, even in this small lagos where conducive,affordable shopping places are hard to come by, she still decides on doin marathon shopping

don't really like 2 shop with girl friends because most times u find u've spent the whole day shopping.but if my guy says he don't mind coming with me,i'll love it because i get to findout first hand what he thinks with what i choose.
to everyone brother or girlfriend who has had patience,thanks.

i prefer shopping on my own, going with other people even girls can be too judgemental, no this will look better,i think you should add this chain e.t.c to what you bought, ave wasted time goin wit people so on my own most times

I ouldnt go shopping with my Boyfriend because thats a special time i have with my sisters. They dont go Shopping with thier men either, its our time together. went Once with my Ex, he got me so angry, because he could not understand why i was bargaining and the shop owners would hike the price if you are with a man because they think he is footing the bill.
No, No way.

i dont expect guys to like it, so i hardly ask them to come along. i'll prefer to just take the money and run!

I've met 2 guys tho who were a big surprise in the 'go shopping with the g/f dept'. i dated one (of course).

the other was in kano. he's this really cute guy who went to lag; so when he asked my girlfriend and i to cook for him and friends, we thought he wld drop us off at the market and take off. we were shocked when he [/b]insisted[b] on following us. i swear, he was so helpful - carrying our bags, offering suggestions, not appearing tired for one bit even tho we were buying raw food for cooking, u know, tomatoes, meat and stuff! i was so def tripped.

believe me, we pampered him very well after the day's outing

its fun to shop with your partner. you avoid blames arising buying something you think yiur partner will like. when you go together this will be avoided

Am her mirror, I just av to be there.Its always fun

yes! But alot of "please, i'm sorry(s), just one more thing to buy"  

If he's the one taking me out for shopping. . . then we go together.
if am footing ma own bills, i go alone!
if we're shopping together. . . then full of fun!

its great fun.

the only thing i do is watch while she bargains. most times you need to be very patient.

no

i am an extremely difficult person to go shopping with.i often insist on going over the entire market/plaza to be sure that i'm getting the item at the best price. Madam does not have that energy.more importantly, when i go shopping, my mind is usually set on a specific item. once i buy that, i'm out. madam on the other hand, can suddenly decide we should start buying some 'other things' (which incidentally, were not in the original budget). finally, once you're with madam, the sellers have a trump card. they can play all those funny mind games - you mean your wife is not worth N_ ?

that wil be once in a very long while. i mean i don't have d kind of patience 2 wait wen girls have 2 try everythin in d market.

oyb:

no

i am an extremely difficult person to go shopping with.i often insist on going over the entire market/plaza to be sure that i'm getting the item at the best price. Madam does not have that energy. i feel u. doesnt necessarily mean u're difficult. u , just have a different approach to shopping

more importantly, when i go shopping, my mind is usually set on a specific item. once i buy that, i'm out. madam on the other hand, can suddenly decide we should start buying some 'other things' (which incidentally, were not in the original budget). finally, once you're with madam, the sellers have a trump card. they can play all those funny mind games - you mean your wife is not worth N_ ?

sorry dude. that u have to understand. it's our nature. however if u have a financially disciplined girl or she has her own cash to spend on it, it shouldnt cause quarrels. further, if u can spare the money, why not get it so she has one more reason to be extra nice to u that day? it works!  

Neva gone shoppin with ma boyfriend but if my experience with ma brother is anything to go by, no thanks.
My dad'll almost literally point a gun to his head to take me shopping as I wz seen as rather young & cldn't drive and even then he'd so rush me, he cld as well have yanked the clothes off the rack for me.
subsequently, he'd just drop me off (contrary to daddy's instructions) n tell me to buzz him whereva he's at wheneva I'm ready.

yeah, we love shopping all the time together.
Besides, am very good in that aspect of choosing tight stuff.
May be i should start running a shopping consultancy firm( if there's anything like that) because i do that for most of my friends.
To me, shopping is so much fun!

It depends

The only thing that would place us together in terms of shopping is a car or an electronic device, otherwise there would be serious problems.

No way!!!!!!!!

I wuldn't have minded shopping 2geda with her but for the time they take in doing their shopping, i don't think i have so much time to waste.

If he is very patient, why not? I love shopping and usually I am not in a hurry. It just has to fit

cecegorz:

To me, shopping is so much fun!

Yeah, keep shopping till u go broke. Dont worry, i'll lend u garri and sugar

shopping? i hate it!

the few guys i have gone shopping with were real spoil sports. they just seem so irritable and in such an unimaginable rush. the very last time i went buying jewelry with a guy, i had to beg him to give me a little more time cos he kept threatening to leave me at the market. it was a so not pleasant experience. i'd rather go with a girlfriend. she'll almos certainly have a helpful opinion and help my decision-making. she wudnt rush me into buying anything and not ensuring i get the best stuff obtainable.

bottomline: i'd rather go shopping with a girlfriend ONLY except the guy insists on going cos he's going to be paying. but that's really not necessary.

don't mind paying the bill. would rather be in a zoo watching animals. women stay too long looking at one black dress or the other.

thank God the stores come to us now
