Having class involves good manners, politeness, pride without showing off, empathy, humility and an abundance of self-control.

It is also about an ingrained and wonderful upbringing which reflects years later in your adulthood. Class is evident in your words and conduct, you either have it in you or you don't. It is more about your carriage and comportment as a person, than the flashy apparel you wear.

You can buy the latest fashion, gadgets and glam up all you want, but the moment you open your mouth to speak and from the way you behave, we will know whether you have class or not.

I know an oil and gas worker with Exxon Mobil, who is very mgbekelicious in the way he carries himself. With all his wealth, nice clothes and fine car I will never describe him as a man with class. I can say he is a man of means, but class.....hell no.



They are just wailing wailers, in real life they relate with these same Naija women they like to bash.
One user who constantly insults women here, said he has 3 kids from 3 different women.
What was he doing with the same Nigerian women he loves to hate/bash on NL?
Abi, the women who are offline are not Naija women again?
Las las dem go quench on top Naija women matter.

OP, what's your definition of classy girls? Is it the pretty social media girls dressed head to toe in designer wears but no proven source of wealth? Is it the rich girls from a rich background that live in the suburbs or is it the working/middle class girls that are big shots in their field of practice? That question needs to be clarified. Once you have clarified that, use the following points to be the ultimate bachelor as far as Nigeria is concerned:

1. You must have a car. (they need to know that your are mobile)
2. You must have a constant stream of income (money)
3. You should have a place of your own (it indicates independence, place of comfort and security)
4. You should be well educated (no matter how much money you have, women can't deal with illiterates)
5. Your diction must be on point. (can't have you embarrassing them in public when you open your mouth).
6. Finally, your dress sense must be on point. (Nigerian women judge men based on their appearance).

Have all these and classy girls will flock to you like bees.


It's funny that all you mentioned goes 50% in the process of toasting a babe in Nigeria, once you have all this things in place. You'll probably get a Yes. Even though they don't really like you, It really doesn't matter.

And this one thinks his comment makes sense, e con add pride and boastfulness join am, lmao I laugh in swahili,

You guys will never ever learn, you think using money and flamboyant things will get you the best of women? You will only attract the money hungry ones that will only be there when the going is good, when it stops flowing she will up and leave, you think life will be rosy all the time or there won't be time of difficulties? Go and ask a man's story on FP not long ago who gives his gf 20k weekly that left him at the slightest setback.

Read to understand, not to respond. Okay? What you said is true, but its like giving me orange when I asked for apple. Are you minimising the importance of money or what?

Even the best of wife material still wants a man doing well financially, which is not a bad thing, so what's your point? Yes men should attract women with something substantial, but money is also part of what is substantial. Its a component of the overall pie. Acting like you don't look for money in a man is like saying you'll be with a transgender man. It is hypocritical, a lie, and suggest that you do not know yourself, or what motivates you. Any self-awareness? Like seriously you no send money? Really ? Really?

A question for you. So you have two guys asking for your hand in marriage. You like both, but one is wealthy scatter, and the other one is an okada man. The only thing different between the two guys is their wealth. Which will you pick ? The wealthy man or the okada man?

Be deceiving yourself.

I am a married woman with kids, when i met my husband he didn't have much, in fact he wasn't in my class or my kind of background, but I saw potential in him, other men with wealth came but all they keep doing was flaunting more and more money as if by doing that, any woman will fall, at the end I married my husband and we are way way above today and still climbing up at a very fast rate

So that money money rant you all keep spewing will not keep a woman that is influenced by it, you will only attract leeches that will only stay if it keeps flowing and leave when it stops, simple.

Good. But does it occur to you that I'm referring to the overwhelming majority? Also, will you in good conscience say that most Nigerian women are like you?

See, if I want to know the qualities men find attractive in women, I'll ask women. Even if I have an idea, it's better to hear from the horses mouth. And the opposite is true. It is men that will tell you what women find attractive in them. And that's exactly what I did. Because you're not like others doesn't invalidate my point.

"I remember when I was nobody, now I got cash and all the girls de rush me" Have you ever seen a female musician use that line before? The answer is no. It is men mostly. Most men pass through the phase of female abundance as soon as they start seeing money. Of course you can argue that they are mostly leeches, and I'll agree with you. But my point still remains, that money attracts women to men.

Now tell me Ned Nwoko will be able to marry girls he is older than with over 40 years, if he is not a billionaire. I mean, you don't live under a rock, or you do? You're not like that, I get it, but the majority of women are like that Come on. I've been broke, and comparing it to now, I can tell you that I attract women easily now compare to before. I don't even have to talk much sef, unlike before that even with my toasting and baggy jeans, na luck if i no end for friendzone grin

Yes there are two solutions to women, it's either you sieve through and find the one that doesn't require you to be flashy or spend a lot of your cash. Which can be a waste of your precious time.

OR

Just focus on your self development and be super financially stable that you attract women of different classes.

One thing you said that cut my attention here is - POTENTIAL.
Even though he wasn’t rich or okay then BUT you saw the potential of him being so in future and assuming he failed on the line due to any factor because a lot failed anyway, you would have loated him, feel disappointed that he failed you. You would have wondered if you took the wrong decision of not picking the richer dudes then and THAT is what makes the difference between a a man and a woman.
Most men just marry because they have to and not because most women have potentials of supporting them in the future.
We can safely say they married out of love and not because of any future expectations aside kids.
In other words, women marry mostly because of wealth OR the potential of it coming in future thereby enduring the present and God bless you, you don’t fulfill the potential, you will regret it as a man and lose a lot of respect.
So ma, all women are the same.

Honestly, most guys should go for the first option no matter how time consuming it is.

If for some reason they can't, then they should delay commitment as much as possible when they become "super financially stable" à la Wizkid and Davido's style. cheesy

Nonetheless, I prefer the first option as only a tiny percentage will attain that financial level.

At 30 you don't have shît, still depending on men for crumbs. Isn't that worthlessness? Don't even talk about intelligence,because most of them are intellectually bankrupt. Initiate a conversation on Geo-politics or international politics, economics, philosophy, and psychology with them and watch them go off.

True, which is why it can be a precious waste of time.

That's another reason why Women saying "they stayed with a man when he had nothing is usually a lie". Most of the times they never had better options, they stayed because there was simply nothing better coming for them.

For example, i don't see myself remaining with Enyimba FC if Manchester United actually poches me as a footballer even if i learnt football originally from Enyimba FC.

At least 50%. It's like applying for a job. A first class graduate with good social skills with get in front of the queue before everybody else. It doesn't mean that he's secured the job. Same thing with Nigerian women, all these things will get you in front of the queue but it doesn't guarantee that they like you or will be loyal to you. The dating market in this country is crazy.

@pansophist

Thank you emmadoet. You made sense, but I'll buttress more on your point, and also address JovialJune point.

A woman can not claim virtue of not being after money just because she went for potential. Because potential in itself is money. Being with a man with a huge potential is like being in an airplane, it is only a matter of time you'll get to your destination. It is only a matter of time, a man's potential with materialise, and viola, money everywhere.

So she actually didn't proved me wrong, but supported my view without realising it. The true test of not liking money is being with a man that no potential, is broke, but have other qualities you want. Nigeria is not in shortage of such men. Them full ground. Why she didn't marry those one? grin

Women keep denying the obvious, that money is not important. I mean, there is nothing wrong with it. If im a woman, I won't be with a broke man either, but I'll be honest about it. Also,a man with money in my view, makes a good partner. Unnecessary fight, insecurities, and weakness would not be a problem in the relationship. So bros, thanks for the addition. I just hope these women can be honest with themselves.
