LilMissFavvy:It doesn't make sense to me . That's how people end up roping themselves into trouble . Some in serious relationships end up having one night stands with exes in a moment of weakness all because of this issue of keeping in touch. Poeple just automatically assume you are holding a grudge when you don't want to socialize with exes on the internet. 4 Likes |

Smile4mee01: Was in a similar situation recently and I just realised how selfish ladies can be. Once they want to get married, any guy that comes their way they will try to put him under pressure and if you don't do their bidding you become an enemy, automatically. My advise to you is to lock up and free the babe. Forget about her and learn to be a bit colder towards women until you are ready to settle down, that's what I have also decided to do. I cannot abandon my dream just because I want to please a selfish lady. I cannot solve every woman's problem... I'd rather have guy friends than talk to ladies nowadays. 2 Likes 1 Share |

LilMissFavvy: Well I must admit this is quite true. But on the other hand, ladies could be very selfish once they want to settle down! Nowadays any lady above 25 just wants to jump on the next guy that says hi to them regardless of whether the guy is on the same frequency with them or not... Either ways I don't blame the lady for cutting off. I think your point was totally valid. But the effect on the other person too is negative. Women should take it easy. If a guy has been clear on his intentions from day 1 respect it and accept him for who he is. There are a lot of wonderful people that won't marry you cos their plans for their own life is different. Ladies should stop being selfish. 2 Likes 1 Share |

eduman365:No you are the selfish one here. At 35 she should keep entertaining time wasters and directionless relationships? So you will come and scream evening newspaper and near menopause in her ear tomorrow. Any lady above 25 should never date any guy that is still in the "let's see how it goes " phase. If you as a man wants to be taking your first son to kindergarten with a bent back and walking stick ,women don't have that luxury. Even with IVF, the older a woman the less likely the success. So Mr Man that finger of women being selfish is pointing right back at you.E get wetin person dey grow pass, all this time wasters,no conscience at all ,see the way you are claiming victim already,very self centered. Nobody held your clothe not to travel abroad,so why nag about it and accuse women of being selfish because they decide to move on instead of waiting endlessly? . The op attested that she is a good lady , resourceful and well travelled, yet he didn't make proper commitment before leaving and still wants to hang around and mess up her head with subtle flirts ,that's demonic 8 Likes 1 Share |

truthsayer009:They don't know how to handle rejection because they are wired to believe they are very special and will be a catch for any man...even the ones with faces like Smeagol or with flat bums/boóbs. Most Nigerian ladies don't understand that just because men are swarming around them does not mean these same men want to spend the rest of their lives stuck with them. 98% of the time, na just where to pour cvm those niggas dey find. I'm pretty sure if the lady in the OP had just played along and told the guy she too was not interested in anything serious but just wanted to have fun, that guy-man will collect free punî without giving that speech about his future. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Smile4mee01:[color=#006600][/color] You did the right thing bro. I salute your goal orientation and strength. As for her, she is only trying to handle rejection and it's just normal. Trust me, when you are done and back she will check up on you. I believe strongly she has her ways of hearing about you, either from mutual friends or evesdrops on your public profile and pictures. Don't mind the nay Sayers here. One of the attributes of greatness is to honor yourself.. 1 Like |

crackkhaus:why will a 35 years old lady play along with a time waster like the op? . By the way ,if you want to talk about looking like smeagol I know alot of male nairalanders that look like that but Nigerian women dey manage una like that. Also let's not forget we are talking about the same Nigerian men that impregnate mad women roaming on the streets . Stop hyping yourselves ,y'all are not all that either 6 Likes |

Ladycewhy: And you concluded the reason for keeping up was to flirt? What is wrong keeping up with an ex-colleague (male or female)? Remember, he never gave her that impression even as a colleague going by what he has written. It's okay if blocking him is her own way of dealing with rejection, but do not misjudge his intentions. I'm almost in d same situation as d OP. I'm beginning to keep my distance now, before my intentions are misconstrued. 1 Like 1 Share |

For her,you've gone with the wind. She's erased every memory and memento about you. Women are emotionally vulnerable by nature. She wanted you,but since you declined, she shut that door behind her.You're a lost memory. 5 Likes |

Ladycewhy: Hey, hey, hey, Wait a minute! What did I just read? Aunty, what happened? Is something else involved ni? Flirt, travel out, time waster, IVF... What's all that?! The guy wanted to be friends!!! Friends!!! Is that a crime? Everybody must marry you because you are ready and time is running out? Please what happened when you guys were selecting guys and some were dating sugar daddies in your early 20s? So it's the innocent guy that should now change his plans from friendship to marriage, just like that!!! That's a very callous way of thinking... 3 Likes |

eduman365:and the lady said she doesn't want then why call her selfish? And rant about it? . Or is friendship now by force?. He even said guys should do the dumping first that's what is paining the op. Nobody asked him to change his plans,if they had dated it would have been a different case but they never dated as far as she is concerned he is " the one who got away" . There is no point staying in touch wondering "what would have been" . The op is likened to "water under the bridge". 6 Likes |

Chi59:Wow...He can't eat his cake and have it? So rejecting ones advances is now a crime? When a woman rejects a male friends advances and he reacts this way, I'm very sure your type will call him childish. Just admit that the most bitter experience a woman will ever have is rejection from a man. You women will kill the guy if you see the opportunity. Little wonder you guys die in silence when you see a guy you admire so much because of fear of rejection. What the OP did is best. And thats exactly what I would have done. Though in my case, I usually start avoiding the lady..because I already know how bitter she will be when she sees me. 1 Like 1 Share |

Re: Is It Emotionally Healthy Being Just Friends With A Mature Lady ? by Nobody: 6:50am On Feb 26, 2020 |
Ladycewhy: No, friendship is not by force and I totally understand the lady's position. Stop being emotional over this please... But you lots are selfish sha, just accept it. Once something isn't tilting towards your area of satisfaction, na wahala! I fear women ooo. |
Re: Is It Emotionally Healthy Being Just Friends With A Mature Lady ? by Emaprince: 6:50am On Feb 26, 2020 |
Ladycewhy:She is very childish. Anyway. Thats how all of you behaves. You all think you are so special that any guy you come close to must be interested in you, hence the bitter attitude you give when a man just want to keep it platonic. Na SIMPs dey cause am sha...too much attention and validation is the reason a lady can't deal with rejection. |
