Romance / Re: What Must I, A Non Nigerian Do To Woo A Lagos Lady. by Equipper: 4:28pm On Sep 09, 2009
I'll talk to you guys in detail in about 40 minutes; however let me say this for now:  I am not going to Lagos primarily for this woman.  I am one Liberian guy who just love and appreciate Nigeria.  (I must have been in a Nigerian in my previous life  .)  Look, I am not even telling her that I am coming to Nigeria.  I will locate her after I arrive. God has blessed mee with a discerning mind; I think I am also very perceptive.  So if it works out fine, if not there's no big deal.
On the other hand I am not that naive to think that such an intelligent and good looking woman is not involved with a man (come on, give Nigerian men some credit; they appreciate beauty grin grin grin)  There is however this impression that I continue to get on this forum that Lagos girls are only interested in money and sex dadada cry cry cry.   The sad thing is those who paint all Lagos girls this way would not say the same about their sisters or relatives  .  Why so they exclude their sisters?  Probably because the do not fit their stereotype.  Extending this further, I would like to ask this:  If their sisters do not fit the stereotypical mold of the "Lagos girl" isn't it possible that there are also other girls who do not equally fit such a mold?  Yes Yes yes yes.  I am simply pointing out the stupidity of painting everybody with the same color.

Finally not every man who meets a lady for the first time thinks about getting into bed with her.   Men with such a mindset would do well as chief patrons of prostitutes.   I hope that point is obvious by now: I am not that kind of a guy.   Every human being has the capacity to give and receive love.  Love and sex are not synonymous.  Stop protraying all of your Nigerian sisters as sluts; nor should you ever presume that you know every woman in Lagos.  No matter what people say about Nigerians there decent, virtuous Nigerians. You are a Nigerian and it is a shame that I have more faith in your people than some of you. 

There is blood flowing all through your body yet when we spit we do not spit blood, we spit saliva. Figure that out

The negative voices around you can have negative impact upon you in so far as you your affirmations are not grounded in deep seated convictions.  This is the reason dreams are never fulfilled:  the dreamer must have a strong "spine" of convictions because the "haters" will have their say.  If your convictions cannot clearly define and motivate you, the fact is that you will end up becoming a casualty.  It is sad but true.

I still just cannot believe that members of this forum cannot PM each other

AMAKA
NOOOOOOO!!! we are totally not even like this.
its just NL a forum, where we just kid around.
dont take anything like this serious, nigerians aint really like this.
just some online bull, for real.

I do not seE anything negative in what is going on here; all I see is the eagerness to express oneself in a straight forward way.  You may not believe this but there are elements of our true humanity in every joke, false fight etc, the real can be masked in comedy, pretended anger and the likes.  So don't get too defensive; what is happening here is real.  Don't we fool around with our friends outside of the cyberworld?  Its called being human.  There's nothing deragotory happening here, just human beings being human

Appreciate y'all. Getting a little intoduction into the Nigerian psyche

Well, I'm just saying that if you love someone, do what it takes to be with them. Of course it isn't just all about money money money, but it will certainly help. Without it though, you will just have to be really creative in your effort of pursuing the one you love,
Bottom line, you have to be persistent and be willing to go to great lengths to get your woman.
Regardless of what, I am still routing for the poster

You're on target man.  If I'm willing to travel to Lagos for the Christmas holidays that's a big step which is already being described by my friend as "going to great lengths".   I will certainly take her out to dinner,etc etc , You get my drift.  I am prepared to go the extra mile to win her over.

You guys don't get it? If you get her attention on the basis of cash flow, remember there are other guys out there who have more cash to offer her. What happens to you when another guy starts throwing money at her? By the way what ever happened to companionship?

Gosh you men are ridiculous  So why do men want women? is it not for the kitty kat? Acting like you are the innocent victims here.

Here we go again! Some people want a woman for who she is -- another human with whom a man can share loving, caring companionship.  The saying "Behind every successful man stands a woman" says something about the personhood of the woman and not just her gender.  It takes a wise, loving, caring, intelligent and of course virtuous woman to help steer her man to success.  I believe such a woman is precious.  So, guys who only focus on the "kitty kat" now end up missing such a woman.  There are such women all over Nigeria today, even right here on this forum.  Lagos here I come to find this precious woman

well said my guy, and by the way the $$$ was merely a joke, only you know how the gal truly feels about you, she may be the real deal or just another sucker,

There is a Krio proverb which says: "The same rain wey wash bitter leaf wey make e bitter, na de same rain wey wash sugar cane wey make e sweet." Every human being has his or her native qualities peculiar to that person. It is only when you encounter that individual that you get to discover the true essence of character whether good or bad. I plan to spend the Christmas holidays in Lagos. They say "seeing is believing." In every society there are bad as well as good people. The notoriety of the bad ones does not in any way obviate the manifestation of the good.

Boy - to solidify the relationship - let her know the size of your pocket, start sending her gifts, gifts and gifts - but, are you sure she is single? If she is not single and you are falling in love and sending stuff to her, you will become what Lagos girls call Mugun or Maga- and you may be number 100 - so, find out very well if she is single or not, most times, the ladies are not single, Lagos gilrs are usually not without one, two or ten boyfriends. Oops - I mean, twenty boyfriends -

Look, dont waste time, because for all you care, another man is surely screwing her to submission while you are wasting time trying to pluck a flower to show her and all that bla bla bla - say it as u want it, ask her - can we be fu cking ourselves? Usually, she will like you as a bad boy and tell you in return, o yeah, I been dreaming of fu cking you until the cows come home.

First of all no relationship should be built upon the foundation of $$$.  I will not send money over there, nor would I send gifts not because I do not want to be a Mugun or Maga (by way I would like for you to explain the difference between the two terms), but simply as a matter of principle.  Let me ask: Is this how you view all Lagos women?  Are you trying to tell me that there are no women of virtue in Lagos? Man I think we should give our sisters some credit; the bad ones notwithstanding.

Hi everybody! I Met this intelligent, educated, and beautiful lady from Lagos who was visiting Richmond, Virginia. Ten minutes spent with her after we were introduce made me want to see her again. I mean she made an impact upon me. We became close acquaintances over time. When she returned to Nigeria, we continued communicating with each other. Without any exaggeration I must confess that I am fallng in love with her. Yet I must tread cautiously because I do not want to mess up what appears to be a promising relationship by doing the wrong things which could offend her cultural sensitivities given the fact that I am a Liberian. What must I do as a non Yoruba, non Nigerian guy to secure and consolidate this relationship with her. I need your candid suggestions.

Thanks

Hello everybody, I'm a newbie and would like to make friends while learning a lot about Nigeria.  Oh by the way I live in Richmond, Virginia.  Must tell you guys off the bat; I am a Liberian who is passionate about Nigeria.  I am particularly interested in the Yoruba culture (no harm intended for other ethnic groups represented here),  I'm just being real.  So, glad to be here.
