Maybe the question is coming too soon and they want you to just flow with the conversation and not bring that up immediately, don't you think?

But ladies can ask a guy this same question. Anyone that can't answer this question has issues. My Asian partner asked me this question last week, i didnt stop typing for the next 3 minutes, he was shocked. Not been able to answer such a basic question means the person doesn't know him/herself...So, if you think the question is an issue, then prepare before hand

Now I know why they keep saying Nigerian girls are dumb. No offence intended, but that question shouldn't irk a sane human being.

It's a simply question that requires an answer. You'd pick offence if you don't even know yourself.

Jezz!, I can't believe what I'm reading on this thread.

it is a lazy question. A poor attempt by the guy to have your attention.

Lol, the question says how do ladies feel about that question, and some ladies have answered yet there are guys and some ladies are attacking them for their answers, ,

Lol, it says how do we feel, not what you guys or ladies want to hear

Lol, why can't we ever have a mature thread where people share their opinions without getting attacked

if any lady says that question turns them off , they fuvking lying ... everyone lady on earth will always want to talk/tell u about herself .. btw, they won't (ladies) even notice you asked them to talk about theirself if u got her attention from the initial stage . for me I'd continue to use that question on any woman am curious about

Safiaa:
I just think the question is too broad, bland and boring. 3 b's. It gives me interview vibes where i feel like i need to sell myself to you by force. Its not forcefully done, i should willingly want to tell you about myself. They're so many ways to get to know someone, that once you ask me that question, i'm mentally drawn out of the conversation. Men love the chase, the thrill of getting to know a mysterious lady but i personally feel they should be creative about it. Set yourself apart from all the typical and boring questions that every guy asks, you may be more successful. Just saying

Quite true dear

Girls will just come here and be lying, ask them that question in person, you go get to the third Base the same day

See them, awon omo Tikabodi

I'd say 90% of Nigerian girls suck in conversations.. they only talk when you talk. they can't make a conversation lively.

Laveda:


Stupid? Let's start pointing it out to them then, or rather lead the conversation since their brain revolves around that one question.

What if I go on u with everything about me...Won't you be like this guy is too self centered and pays little care about me.

Coming here and be forming I too know.
Simple question they cannot answer.

Nice try

At least you get to ask your chameleon the question everyday. Don't tell me you've eaten d poor thing!

I dont usually answer dumb questions, but i will make an exception this one time.
I dont make lunch out of a pet.

And i believe the sole purpose of this thread is to learn how to better our communication skills with humans but if u think animals can be talked to too, then u need to see ur therapist

CyberGypsy:

You're cracking me up..Lol

Funny how people feel and say Nigerian men can't handle a conversation. I've hardly met ladies that are experienced conversationst..hardly..

Daeylar:




Nice try

no actually u made me laugh .. I like your sense of humour tbh , no games

supersystemsnig:


You're cracking me up..Lol

no intentions to do that though .

I don't get the fuss.
If a dude you don't know meet you and starts a conversation with 'Tell me about yourself', simply say you don't entertain strangers and move on. But when someone you're getting to know says "Tell me about yourself", he's invariably saying he wants to know you more, and if you're interested you introduce yourself. Why would any human being pick offence over a polite request?. These girls make girls sound dumb.

I ask guys to tell me more about themselves, more especially the ones I meet on NL 'cause that's one of the ways to know who you're dealing with aside perception.

SMH.

Laveda:
So I came across this post and I thought I should share here and get the opinion of others.

Ladies are you comfortable with a guy always asking, can I get to know you better? Is it a question you don't like and you think they should stop? What's really wrong with it?

And the guys, don't you think you should come up with a better way of striking conversations?

what! are women some kind of diamond or what.

I ask this kind of question a lot and if you don't give me a better answer I kick you out.

I once ask my bae (white woman) this question and the answer she gave was "awesome! cause I love myself for who I'm am"
the thing with black women especially naija women is that them are too violence and them don't use there sense to think.

them don't use there sense to answer question and that's why them do fall in the hands of ritualist and rapists

fish minded creature there are!

But does that answer she gave cover everything you wanted to hear? Please don't make it a black and white girl thing.

Safiaa:
So when you ask that question, what specifically do you want to hear? And why cant you just go straight to the point. Funny enough ..i gave my number to a guy yesterday. Very attractive physically, and we started talking. The minute he asked me that question, he just instantly became unattractive to me. I don't know why and Im yet to respond to the message. You guys should do better.

Inasmuch as that question is bizzare, i think you have something to hide from the guy.
I dont really like asking girls questions like that.

If you ask me to tell u about myself, I would give you a one sentence reply. "So if you truly want to know me, go with the flow, I am sure that with time you would know everything there is to know.

Them feminists will coe for you soon. Yeye pple

If anyone can't " tell a little about themselves ", then it implies self identity issues. Wonder why this thread is raising dust. could it be that people don't have a healthy view of themselves ?

Laveda:


Don't you think you should just pick a question and ask rather than asking her to tell you about herself like it's an "interview"?

Its more of an interview because the guy want to employ you. You only break up when he can no longer pay your salary.

It's all too cliché. I'd rather a guy asked more specific relevant questions, then subsequently, he'd naturally find out the rest.

But just coming out to say "tell me about yourself" is quite upsetting. Usually for me, that's the point I stop chatting. What does he want, an essay? What's the point, anyway? There's a higher tendency he'll forget all that has been said.

why u quote me?

Florblu:
I always reply with "Ask me anything you wanna know about me"

that is the write thing. ladies also ask me the same question. my answer always goes like this:
"my name is Checked86 and i am single. this is all i know about me for now" in most cases, being single would always deviate the topic and saving me the headache of telling somebody whom i am not. To me, the question is not stupid. the only thing is that the question has become platitude.

My reply to this question is usually
"Name, age, tribe ,educational qualification, relationship status, local government ,height and skin colour ,but if you have anything you will like to know, ask"

so annoying. just be specific. i do reply you with " like what exactly do u want to know "

frenzyduchess:

It's easy, treat it like a massage

Well, like you know, i'm super... I love to " the moment you mention movies or anything ", the conversation ends. Its basically not a question that wants the real answers No. It wants to pick an area of interest that resonates the speaker, so a conversation can branch out, simple. And the more that;s revealed, the more the conversation can be stretched. and just this question alone if both parties are good with communication can stretch into weeks before it is exhausted, because new areas of interests opens up for discussion.
