Why Do Most Women Prefer Abroad Based Husbands To Nigerian Based Ones? by lalasticlala(m): 1:26pm On Sep 26, 2014
It's a common knowledge that most women prefer abroad based guys/husbands to Nigerian based ones.

Babes trip so much for guys that returned from the UK, US, etc.

I knew of a lady that swore that she would never marry a Nigerian based husband. She was a banker. Fortunately for her, a customer saw her, liked her and sent her pics to the brother living in the US. The abroad based guy later married her and took her abroad.

There are several other cases where some babes had to dump their serious suitors based here in Nigeria because of another guy that returned from abroad.
A times , the abroad based guys may disappoint them even after promising them marriage.

When I was in year one in ABSU, my uncle's daughter was doing her NYSC already. Two suitors were already coming for her hand in marriage. One was working in a federal ministry in Abuja, the other had just finished his NYSC and was retained by the bank where he had served.

She was showing more interest in the one with a federal ministry until she met the son of the MD of the company where she was posted to. Everything changed. The MD's son was resident in London. They fell in love as she dumped the Abuja guy.

The MD's son promised her marriage. She was so excited. She flaunted him for all to see. He later went back to London with a promise to come back for her or send for her. After the service year, she came back.

To cut the long story short, I graduated, finished service, yet she's yet to marry. The Abuja based guy now has 2 kids. He married another lady. I heard the Banker one that also came to marry her then is now in Canada.

She's now so desperate for marriage as her 2 younger sisters are all married with kids.

What is so special about abroad based husbands that make women long for them?

ΐτ̅'s a lady's thing to brag & be pompous about having a hubby abroad. The prestige that comes with having her child(ren) in the states, being a citizen & enjoying all the benefits that comes with ΐτ̅. Unfortunately, the grass is not usually green on the other side..

There is this societal perception that abroad guys are rich. Women do not want broke men for marriage, so, its easy for an abroad guy to catch many girls in Nigeria even if he's washing plate in the UK.

Another reason why some of them fall for abroad guys is also because they want to be there.
They want to see snow and sleep in the white man's land. They want to eat Mac Donalds.
They want to see plenty "oyibo" men.
They want to go to beach with "oyibo" men.
They want to touch dallars, pands ati hiro.
They want to brag to their friends that they're in europe, america, etc.

But to their greatest surprise, its either the abroad brother just came to Nigeria to sleep with them or take them there to add to the "plate washing company".

Many reasons.

Abroad base men are perceived to be more richer, civilized and a golden platform to a better life abroad. Elevated social status among peers too.

A lady that I dated did that to me. She became close to one guy on Facebook. The guy was working in a company in dubai. They exchanged contacts and I didn't know what happened again until I saw her dp on whatsapp. I called her to know what was going and she told me that the guy wants to marry her bla bla bla.

I parked well.

The guy later dumped her and married the lady that got the dubai job for him

That reminds me. There was a thread some days ago about a Rich young man based abroad who was complaining about naija babes and their fake love. I was surprised that none of the NL chics took offence.
They didn't even challenge the veracity of his claims. Why? Because he's based abroad and he claims to have money. See as all of them dey form understanding, caring chics.

My sister, naija babes like imported sontin. Why? Because of the illusion of money. grin

I know a lady (20yrs) who just got married to a (43yr) old guy based abroad. The mum claims he is wealthy and doing well abroad but since he married her she hasn't been able to get her papers so she can join him. She now has a child for him but hasn't seen him for two years now.
Some girls are lucky while some are just unlucky with them "awana awana"boys.

I have to admit the writer assertion is correct. I for one has been getting a slightly more attention from ladies I knew while in Nigeria before my sujourn to the Queen's land. I think its about social security, when a guy/lady abroad marry someone in naija it gives them an automatic right to legal status abroad and maybe the pride that comes with it. But I would advise people should look beyond where one lives but the individual and his potential to succeed. Yea life in western world is far better than what we have home but its not all that rosy; the bills, the boredom etc is way out of normal.

It's even funny when u hear it in Church testimonies. Something like: "my sister dated one guy through out the university, suffered with him and all that only for him to jilt her. As God would have it, a man coming to spend Xmas in Nigeria met her and they are now married and BASED in the UK". The word in upper case being the only major reason for the testimony and not that she eventually married. They are said with more emphasis amidst shouting for joy
