Check this out:

One day a long time ago. When I was still a very very good girl wink wink , I was on my back from choir practice with a christain brother and we were talking about how mean our choir master was. I kept ranting cos I was so pissed at him for punishing me( didn't get my cadences right and he made me stay behind to practice after others left) anyway I was just going on and on about how mean he was. Out of the blues,this christain brother picked a sweet-smelling white rose from the church flower hedge and put it in my hair

Ooohh my. I blushed to my feet embarassed
And I shut up immediately. I don't forget that incident even tho I'm sure he has forgotten it.

You see when u love ur baby and she's nagging u about something non-stop, pick a flower put it her hair and kiss her on the fore-head. She'll shut up forever cheesy

Segeggs: stop acting as if you are one of those decent girls that only need love from a man and not material things. Girls like you jump from car to car, taking pics at the passenger's seat and uploading on fb. All you want is MONEY!MONEY!!MONEY!!! Such that when a broke guy with a bright future who can only afford flowers comes your way, you bullsheet him and yet you come here with a cooked up persona.
u ar so on point.

Loretta, i think u've failed on this one. U've been busy opening threads on "why do men this", "why do men that" and it has been hitting fp 4 u, as 4 this one, u are already a failure. U know why, how many guys/ times have u expected a guy to present u a flower without money? Dont act as if u not one of d nigerian ladies we meet on street evryday. Tell me u would be so much in love with me if i come check on u evryday wit flowers without money. What i hate most in life is hypocrisy. Who told u, u deserve d flower in d 1st place when all u believe in a rlatnshp is MONEY?

lorretta u: Well mine is romantic too just that he's not around here. I'm sure he'd give me flowers too if he was around
But before then, I've not seen any other guy giving us flowers

And to expand this ur post, it shows u are dating more than one guy. Is it for d flower sake or for money?

Hope u ready to manage the heat as guys will soon invade here and hit on u real hard and rough.

Flower ko, rose ni.

While this story is very cute, it cant happen in Nigeria. Not because the men are unromantic but because flowers are not readily found in this region. We dont grow flowers in Nigeria and the ones imported from abroad are expensive.
Which guy wont pick the cheap alternative of picking out flowers for a girl especially when compared to spending money on gifts? The guys only make do with what they have. And that is where eateries come to the rescue.

Your fellow girls prefer food: pastries e.g meatpie, isiewu, fried rice, chicken, peppersoup, nkwobi and ice cream, than flowers. grin

Re: Nigerian Men Don't Give Flowers To Us: Why? by Nobody: 9:52am On Dec 05, 2013
Fried rice and ice cream all the time makes us pack too much flesh in the bom bom sad
Then we'll start looking for how to lose the extra flesh accumulated from too much fast food. When I didn't know better,I used to go on fast food dates with wooers. They come and pick u and next thing fast food straight.sad that was during my school days. Now all the fried rice and ice cream packed in my bom bom won't let me walk well cheesy (just kidding)
As I'm now in my twenties and no longer a teenager,I know better. Sweet smelling real flowers are better than food. We are not hungry


quote author=sexkillz]Why will I buy an expensive bouquet that'll end in the trash? undecided

I'll rather buy fried rice with chicken and ice cream, then buy "Richad cad" with the remaining change. . . grin

My two beautiful potted plants were a gift from my dear smiley, he knows I'm in tune with nature, so the question is does your boyfriend know you for loving flowers? He wouldn't like to spend on an item he feels you won't appreciate.

It happened in nigeria
I live in nigeria
Our church had a very wonderful horticulturist. Those roses I've never seen them anywhere else since we moved from that area. It is very true.

About the flowers not readily found,that's true. I admit. But Don't you think that will make it all the more romantic if he goes extra length to get them wink smiley ?

lorretta u: Why are you hurt?
Do you know me?
Or do you know any man that's paying me monthly salary?
PS liking flowers has nothing to do with decency or lack of it. A girl can like flowers and still be bad,while one who doesn't like flowers can still be good

I think you missed your heart-break medicine today tongue
you mean u actually like flowers or you are just trying to form yankee babe? :-|

So guys come calling to their babes with money at hand? Yea they are paying tax undecided (is money a gift? Or u don't think a girl can help the man out with cash sometimes just as the man gives her money too. Both depending on their income) we are talking of gifts you're talking of money

And who says liking other gifts means u can't like flowers or liking flowers means u can't appreciate other gifts?
Let me break it down for u, bb, brazilizn hair,clothes,fastfood etc are good. But if for sometimes the guy just gets real flowers instead,I girl like me would love that.


And how did your fish brain deduce that I have mulitple guys from that my post?

You just wanted me to notice you. Ok I have.

Girls shd stop deceiving themselves. I sent my gf a romantic flower pix, she was like "huh?". I sent her the pix to see her reaction to stuffs like that because we don't stay in thesame city.

The bottomline is giving a girl flower is pure money waste. She won't appreciate it. You better buy handbag, bra, gown and gstring.. You will be the most caring bf ever

I might not be active here to debunk ur hypocrisy cos i got things at hand and considering ur limitless time spent on this forum, it shows joblessness is d disease swindling u. Listen and i quote "my guy is not around and others are not giving me flowers", which sensible folk would not know this involve more than a guy? Why arguing blindly? Ur post clearly stated u date more than a guy and u are trying to rebute the obvious. The multiple dating, is it for the sake of getting flowers from them only?

As for flowers, u didnt answer my question. Would u be ok with a guy if all he does is presenting flowers to u? Smh! Dont act as if u would even appreciate the flower the way it comes if money is not inclusive.

Go ahead and sleep on nairaland! Am out!

Other called me Hollywood lover boy, I left the idea of flowers in FUTO and sincerely majority of Nigerian girls that I have met do not appreciate it!

So the idea of flowers are 4years behind me!
