ogugua88: ^^^ Hehehe, I love a realist. Life is easier when you lower your standards and take what life throws at you. If you like it, then fine. If not, then move on until the next best thing happens (if it chooses to happen that is).

ayox2003: Og, I believe that humanbeings are made in their essential capacities to act and not to be acted upon. We all have choices and we can choose what we want from our lives. Manyatimes life throw punches at us but we are left to choose how we react to them.
When it comes to choosing a life partner, choose the qualities you would want to see in you partner and position yourself for such a person by working on your own character, too. Pls dont lower your standards for anything.
Do you know I can choose to date you? Lolz.

) Intelligent(Didn't find that in your list, very important because it supersedes everything and a key to everything)

2) Hardworking (encompasses financial independence, a goal getter, well connected because anyone who is hardworking would have all these in mind or aspires to get them so they are all interwoven and interrelated like a maze. Infact a man who acknowledges that you encouraged his hard work would be generous too)

3) Physical look (this is obviously related to being neat as well,your man should be at least presentable. Its the way he is dressed that he would be addressed)

4) Patience (Related to good listener and adviser. You need to be attentive and composed to listen to your partner. Related to respectful as well)

5) Practicing believer not like a staunch christian but must have the fear of God. I am not a fan of spiritual fanatics). Once there is fear of God, every other blessing follows or all the other factors you listed would be added unto thee. If you can't get everything in a man, focus on getting the most important or key things that would shape, mold or establish the rest for you.

Kindly xplain what you mean by the word "NERD"

cus I know nerds to be too unromantic

.

honeric01:

Are you gay?

ogugua88:

I don't believe in envisioning a fairy tale partner. The one quality I ask is for someone to love/respect me for who I am. And that's about it. Simple and to the point. Do you know how many women list characters for men and dump men because they don't possess 100% of the qualities they desire? Those women remain unmarried. Then, area NL boys will run to Nairaland, complaining of spinsters and reminding them that their biological clock is ticking.

The world is not black and white, but gray. You can list qualities from here to jericho. Someone who possesses any one of those qualities is flawed just like everyone else. The question is, can you deal with those flaws?

Yes, life throws punches, but I expect punches, because such is life. Those who are in lala land, awaiting Prince Nnamdi and Princess Omotola are usually blindsided. What fate has in store for you is hardly ever what one wished for. Expect the unexpected.

You cannot choose to date me. You can wish to date me and I can then choose to reject you lol.

On the money.

mercylicious:


ur explanation of hard working is false.
barrow pushers are the highest hard workers but they are nt financially independent. There are also not well connected and most will not be in their life time. So u have to seperate them.

Cuddlemii:

Can you explain what you mean?
