My Big Brother Told Me I'm Too Flashy... by peachezncream(f): 5:09pm On Dec 19, 2013
Okay, we were discussing at home this morning nd my big broda told my mum about how everyone likes me because I'm humble , smart nd down to earth but he was like "I've got good guys that are interested in a serious relationship with you but they are scared coz you are too flashy".

And I was like what's the definition of flashy? and he said "they are scared of sharing you with some other guys even after putting a ring on it". I really felt bad at his response.

My mum stylishly changed the discussion when she noticed I was getting uncomfortable.

I just got back into the country, I'm in my early twenties, caramel complexion, a graduate, i rarely go out but anytime i go out i always try to look simple with a touch of class.

I've got few friends. 5 of them are married the remaining 4 are in a serious relationship.

80% of my toasters are married men who want me as second wife or mistress. Single guys don't really ask me out probably because they think i'm the flashy type.

Please what's your definition of flashy and kindly advice on how not to look flashy.

Flashy = High maintenance = Expensive = Bright = Over-dressed = Attention grabing = Larger than life = Looking intimidating to niggaz on a budget

To appear less flashy, do the opposite of everything above or tone it down. Simple!

I dunno why we girls overdress or over makeup even if na to go nearby chemist go buy something or to see a nearby friend.
@Op
If you use heels, pls stop! Use only on occasions.

Follow me to yaba so we can buy bend down select(some guys know d estimate of clothes dey see on a woman)

Reduce d makeup if u can.

Try as much as possible not to hold your handbag on ur wrists like most girls do.

Only bring out your phone if u have a call. Dont flash it anyhow.(Costly phones)

Try as much as possible to go out with ur natural hair once in a while.. Not Brazilian hair every time, dem go run.

Avoid using loud colours all over every time except if u are going out out.

really am impressed by this topic....in as much as I don't like commenting on the romance section due to the way people questions and stories that don't naturally bother or affect our self esteem and not to talk of our day to day management of our emotions........
@op firstly your topic is real and it's true that girls tend to be flashy at times due to their personality or love for flashy material things..But I will app predicate if you acknowledge that you are the person in question because if you don't I will assume that you are uneducated and your claim that you studied in America is a shammm..How can you after personalizing yourself in the article where you said that "most off my approaches are matured men"
if I believe you are not the one then that will amount to a blow on my intelligence.....



back to the issue::::
naturally I tend to stay away from girls who I perceive as flashy judging from the easy they dress(always over dressing) unless they approach me first...because I see them as girls who attract only married men.(who wants to share babe with married man?))
front page material please moderators...

Am sure its those kind of braids that will reach the bombom. Its cool but not every time okay. Plsss

As for d heels, I think DAT may be the prob.
Long braids +heels is more than just a touch of class.

Re: My Big Brother Told Me I'm Too Flashy... by Nobody: 9:36pm On Dec 19, 2013
@ohwhy, I disagree with you!
Trying to look classy only becomes a crime when you go beyond your abilities. U know d usual borrow-pose that some ladies do or taking money from guys to look the way their status cannot afford.
If u have the money, pls, go for things that fit in your status.

There are some things I see today and when I ask for the price, i'll waka pass. In the next 4 years, if i'm able to COMFORTABLY afford those things, i'll gladly buy them. You don't expect someone who makes USD3000 yo dress the same way she wld when she was making USD1000, do you? I'm not one to advocate for make-up and brazilian hair but u don't need all those to look classy! When you're classy, you're classy. Your steps are, your voice is, your carriage is, your aura is! Everything about you is!


As per the guyz, there are too many hu gry guys out there and their ego won't let them be, don't lower your standards because of dem, if dey can't upgrade or push their ego aside, it's their loss! There are guys who are confortable with women like you, don't let anybody tell you otherwise!

I have beenmonitoring you for quite some time.......
My observations are......
You are single and badly searching for a man....
2 you always make noise about guys that you know nothing about their psychology...
3 the worst part which most gullible nlanders won't notice is that you are deceptive(deceiver) and I pity those that swallow your advice hook line and sinker...
The op is seeking advice on how to appear less flashy a and you are suggesting she stick to her status....What is that suppose to mean..
