I'm afraid,im not cut out for this anymore, people are getting the wrong ideas,becos its like here on NL its a crime for a girl to chat continuously with a guy, their mind is so clouded with negativity,hence they feel that when one chats with a guy,one is spoilt.its not as if i can't chat with you,but i don't want some idiots to think it otherwise, they complained to my guy that im flirting with you, my guy is koolchicco. i dont want trouble and becos of that ,im out( no offence).
cheers, smiley

in africa, I think the prob is we men try so hard to make things work. That leave us no room b romantic. Plus events and happenings has helped in hardening our minds that we are left almost emotionless and unromantic. That doesn't mean we dnt kno Hw to get our groove on wen the tym is right.
They are unromantic because they have few positive male role models to emulate. In the media, romance is often portrayed as something only females are intere
sted in
We are also made to believe ego over emotions. Someone like me was brought up never to give in into emotions.
I cud go on and on with reasons but that doesn't mean there arent any romantic men out there.

Just interested to know peoples thoughts on this,


You must have met or seen only the unromantic African men.

Please, see one of my books, The Language of True Love, already sold out in Nigeria.

African men are romantic to women who appreciate romantic life.
But most of our women have put a price tag on love affairs.
They mistake spending on them as being romantic.

Sometimes I take a day off work to spend it with my woman alone in the house.
I pamper her, sing love songs to her as we make love from the living room to the corridor to the bedroom and to the bathroom.
Or we go to the cinemas and end up at the Bar Beach on Victoria Island in the sunset in Lagos, Nigeria

I can't speak for nobody else but, me, I know I'm romantic, maybe to a fault sef! I have a way of treating every woman around me nice and making them feel special. Then again maybe that's just another word for "being nice",
Re: Are african men Romantic or Just "Unaffectionate" by Nobody: 4:34pm On Oct 31, 2010
When it comes to love, African men are like Lions stalking their prey. They observe, position themselves to the right angle and when the time is right? They attack. If they think about it and find it not worthy enough they move on to the next potential target. A lot of American men and some Caribbean men test first and then have an opinion, they are like the lion cubs. They make a move prematurely and send the targets running away. They are more open and it can be a HUGE advantage for a woman who wants to know what she is getting into, but also a HUGE disadvantage as they tend to expose their baggage early on which is when the prey takes off. African men are more secretive because they don't want to get wrapped up with a woman who is not what they are looking for hence the "I refuse to be affectionate" act.

I have had this problem with EVERY single one of the three African men I have dated. I find that this is particularly true when the women are not African. (African women are the Zebras who do not even have to see the Lions and instinct tells them when to react while we Caribbean and American women are frozen still and confused.) Anyway, the reason the first two did not work was because although I find mystery men exciting, when they were ready to show me who they were, I found that we were not compatible. I am currently with an African man. Very BEAUTIFUL person on the inside and GORGEOUS on the outside (very very sexy) but he's secretive like a terrorist being question by the C.I.A! It's AMAZING  angry! Some things I would like to discuss with him results in his derailing the conversation. We had this very talk last night about this topic and he said he cares about me so much that he thinks about me every moment of the day however hes not yet ready to open his heart and be hurt or do the hurting which is fair enough. I am constantly being put through tests though (exciting but annoying) to prove my love for him.

When you are romantic, our women say you are behaving like "Oyinbo" (whiteman).
Re: Are african men Romantic or Just "Unaffectionate" by MsPotato(f): 4:35pm On Oct 31, 2010
My guy is not romantic and Thank God cause I dont go for romantic guys. I heard from Oprah Winfrey that Romantic guys usually end up as serial killers. . . How else do you explain all those Oyinbo guys whom killed their wife on CI? grin tongue

Bear with him and do your best to bring out the best in him.
African men really love their women if their women will be faithful to them.
They will treat them like goddesses.

What does Oprah Winfrey know about being loved?
Have you found out about her history with men since high school.

How many serial killers do we have in the world?

Serial killers are psychos who are only obsessed with their women.

Obsession is not love.

Being a nice guy does not mean you are romantic.

A romantic man must not be a pussy,  insecure or what I call a "love mugu",

A romantic man must be bold and brave and noble.
