What major issues? So if a girl figures she doesnt have time for dating but rather concentrate on other stuffs then she's having issues?

u are all getting this wrong.

Its not that she doesnt have time or want to date, she actually wants to date but has never had a real / serious relationship with a guy. deep down she wants to experience the feeling of being in love and a relationship but she has to keep a touch out look, and make it look like she doesnt care.

Teki, I am sure u gone on some dates or had some suitors in the past, may be one u even liked, but it never ended up in a full relationship. what u really want to know if it's okay not to have dated by this age and if there are others like u.

well my answer is yes.

We all are unique and what works for you may not work for me. After all, she may have decided that the best way for her to avoid certain eventualities is by shying away from dating (in the meantime). The Igbo say, "Mgbe onye ji(ri) teta bu ututu ya (whenever one wakes up is one's own morning - provided one does wake up finally. . . lol).

Dunno why I had to explain that proverb to you.

Like Douzy said, what works for one doesnt necessarily work for another. Lets not put me in any shoes because i tend not to do things normally grin tongue

If at all there is really anything like NORMAL(CY). *cogitates*

any lady that is too choosy will miss at the end.choosy means either the guy has to be so handsome, financially stable.with that u shld be able to share him with other girls.nigerian guys that fall into any of the two categories will most likely have more than one girlfriend.

I beg to differ, NOT "Any" lady make choices based on the financial stability or the looks of a man.

@Douzy keep cogitating lol, i guess normal(cy) is the usual or the common. Bahhh where's the fun in that? LMAO
Re: Never Dated Before At 22? by ginababy(f): 4:15pm On Sep 23, 2006
a reasonable guy knows what is good for him if he feels he is on top of the world and will like to messup with his life best known to him.
But i tell you some thing not all that act the way you just said it now.

Yes girls will like to hang around guys of such but not that they cant make it they can because it has been destined by God.
Re: Never Dated Before At 22? by Douzy(m): 4:24pm On Sep 23, 2006
*just came to* NORMAL(CY) = The usual, common? Duh! I'm the Individual (borrowing a leaf from Soren Kierkegaard). I decide what is usual and/or common to me and not to the 'mass man'. Individual uniqueness, despite the demerits, is the spice of this otherwise humdrum existence.

My sentiments exactly!

moreover 22 is not too much some are above that, they have served their NYSC and get married b/4 they get deflour its nothing to shine for.
Re: Never Dated Before At 22? by whitelexi(m): 4:58pm On Sep 23, 2006
I still dont understand why everyone is making this topic a big issue, if this was 1960, i'd understand the shenanigan, but this is 2006 and it will be difficult to find a 14yr old who is not already building castles in her head let alone 22yrs. Its not impossible but u will agree with me that its scarce and peeps like me will look at it as wierd, peeps like u will come out nice with it but in reality, u cant help but wonder. thats the true difference in our opinions, we see it from a realist's point of view, u do it so u sound nice!
Re: Never Dated Before At 22? by Douzy(m): 5:05pm On Sep 23, 2006
There's more to reality than the common.
Re: Never Dated Before At 22? by iice(f): 5:08pm On Sep 23, 2006
Nice has nothing to do with it. If what you have experienced or seen is what you know, then of course you are entitled to your views. Sure the sex/dating/promiscious situations these days are not what they used to be. Example not until a couple of years did i actually believe that grown ass men of 20yrs plus can still be virgins yet there are men like that.
Re: Never Dated Before At 22? by whitelexi(m): 5:19pm On Sep 23, 2006
men will be men, girls? i really don't know

Now, that u've bought me ova, I'll be on your side, just for a tad moment. . . lol (kidding).

Just try to look at the issue a bit more objectively (as in, giving room for some uncommon, but not abnormal peculiarities) rather than from the 'mass man' point of view.

That's just my own.

Daalu so!


BTW, dating must not necessarily include losing one's virginity. I've been dating since I was like 22, yet (now almost a decade after), I'm still a virgin. lipsrsealed

While i agree that on careful arrangement, the devil can indeed go to heaven, i also have to point out that such occasions come only once in a lifetime.

Re: Never Dated Before At 22? by ronkebaby(f): 7:15am On Nov 12, 2006
i also did not date until i was 22 just because i did not want to have flings & just wanted a serious relationship with a guy i would love. my initial vow was even not to date till after university (that would have been, at 24years). unfortunatly for me thou, i got a serious relationdship. but my other wish of waiting for someone i would love was not fulfilled, since i became born-again and had to agree to a brother's proposal when he told me he was led to be engaged to me, hence my reason for even dating as early as 22 years.
