Sometimes typing can be very boring and stressful, especially when you have a lot to say at once.

Imagine a situation where as a 9-5er working in Lagos, you just returned from work (after beating that Lagos traffic)...and someone important gives you a lengthy chat that can't wait..Omo! Me na VN go solve am o!

Talking is more stressful than typing.

You probably don't know this because you all are talkatives.

That is true. But I think for women, they come after financial stability. Sure, a lady who seeks marriage would choose a younger dude over an older man all things being equal. What I am curious about is how modern-day women are yet to understand that there are fewer men who are financially stable, and those who are yet single have many women at their beck and call YET want monogamy. Na wetin, I tell a female doctor friend who is based in Abuja: there are few men you describe, and if they are single, they have many women in their lives. She even wants the one with less body count.

She should wait a bit. Jesus is coming.

Even tho it's important for a man to be up and doing but not all women are actually after money. It's a shame the ones after money have louder voices that those who care little about such.

My pastor recently shared a story of how his wife was feeding him when he lost his job and his new job wasn't paying enough. It went on for years o until he was back to his feet. This man I'm talking about is in the top ten earners in his local government in Lagos as of today.

Well, at the end of the day, you would still marry a woman who earns less than you. That is the truth, especially for Nigerian men who are antsy about their wives out-earning them. It is hypergamy women always aspire to men higher than they (women). It is evolutionary and
biologically. Heck, it is even economical, if not for gender equality which has reduced the number of jobs available to men.

However, where you come top is when you get women interested in you as you earn well. You would be accused of cheating by your wife or serious girlfriend, but to me, you are merely exercising your options. As long as you provide for the family and don't carry diseases to madam, I say go ahead. You are enjoying your prime, just as she had hers. Life na turn by turn.

P.S. My sister has told me the same and I laughed it off. Women are the same everywhere. In fact, Nigerian women's hypergamy is small. Swiss and Chinese Singaporean women's hypergamy are off the roof.

This hypergamy thing doesn't end with money.

There's good look.
Popularity.
Competency.
Youth.

I believe there should be others too.

Let's talk about these too.

I can relate.

Then they will take a season and split into two DVDs or is it the one that you'll see a new film on a DVD collection not knowing it is cinema-dubbed.

Na because of them I never finish Smallville till today: I buy Season 7 DVD not knowing na still Season 4 them dey for real life.

Almost anyone who bought dvds then can relate. 😂😂😂

Ask your dad with a serious face if he wants to marry you.

Don't mind this foolish boy. I owe you money if you have big nyansh. 😎😊

One thing find really attractive in women is height.

This man is living the dream.

Tall women are never fat nor obese, at least I have not seen one. It's always those short malta guinness that get fat.

Stop calling marriage in Nigeria "settle down".

Congratulations to Bayern Leverkusen.

They should do their best to keep Alonso and there players too to preserve that system.

I hope they can clinch a treble this season.

Xabi Alonso is another Zidane in the making.

This is low-key funny

Do it with math first first then convert it to python.

Play around with the modulus sign to actually understand how it works.

This question is simple, don't cheat.

Hopefully, I get to see this description in action with time. Cos as I dey, I spend on myself first - the best thing money can buy. Looking tacky in the name of "the wealth of a man is seen in his wife" no follow. My Igbo no reach that level. Upon this spending on their wives, their daughters later become active feminists with a touch of lesbianism.

To what end?

I feel like flogging some igbo women sometimes.

Igbo men do the most in the place of love and even family. I heard any child born into an igbo man's family automatically become his by tradition.

A lot of you can't see through this because it's has been baked into tradition. Despite this, you people still have the most ungrateful set of women.

I still wonder how feminism appeal to igbo women so much. Could it be because of Chimamanda?

They will say you have low self esteem. Honestly just stand on a street in Chile and see how handsome the men are then stand on a street in Nigeria and just look. The difference is like day and night.

If you watch football, you would see the clear differences between the level of beauty and handsomeness with africans and the europeans and americans especailly south americans.

Watch AFCON, then watch EUROS and COPA America. Sorry but the black africans cannot compete.

The Truth is bitter. No other countrymen complains about such things. That should tell you something.

I use to doubt this until I did a survey in a viewing center during an important match when the place was crowded.

Truth is, for every average or handsome guy, there was atleast 6 ugly guys/men. I mean very ugly men, from dentition, shape of head, terrible accent and voice, bad form/no muscle, terrible hairstyle to say the least. Many were not just ugly but they were not also putting efforts into looking good, this is where our women are doing better but they also become really unattractive after just a child.

Only set of people that are goodlooking/looking good are young unmarried ladies.

I got married at 27, I will never advise anyone to get married that young, I have two kids now am an low income earner 90k per month after my wedding, everything about my life stop, it's now all about the family, so many opportunities to take risk but looking back and seen I have a wife who depends on me and I have two innocent kids, I have no choice but to remain where I am, achieve all you can achieve before you think of getting married let no body lie to you, my mental health is something else right now, all because I want to be responsible, chase your dreams achieve at least 60 to 70 percent before you settle down, I wish I could turn back the hands of time I would never be married at 27 at least 35.

My brother, God will continue to be with you.

I will be 27 on sunday and I still called out a dude who classified he and I as the set of guys who are preparing for marriage.

Marriage no dey even cross my mind. I guess you yielded to the society pressure of being a responsible man. Such a scam!

Funny thing is, my friends of same age range who are guys are getting married, my cousin of same age recently impregnated a girl that would be his wife, or so I heared.

If you dash me marriage now, I go use am stone you. I swear! I can't just Imagine caring for 4 people on 90K! Men!

This your story really moved me.
