Nigerian men stupid? No way O! Anything but STUPID.

Well, to be honest I think it is because of the diffefence between men and women "mentality wise". God didn't create men and women to be a like; therefore, men don't don't have the same emotions as women do. Men, basically feed their sexual physical needs and love comes second, where as a woman will fall in love. Men also knows with love comes "Drama" and most men tend to avoid drama.

If you don't want to date them - then don't, continue to wait for the right person and don't settle for less.

Bayoo,

My heart is with you at this time. The Bible says: "Blessed are those that mourn for they shall be comforted." In spite of the pain you feel right now I know it is very hard for you to believe that you are blessed. However, during your mourning GOD will bless you. I too have lost a mother and I know how you feel. My prayers are with you at this time and when in need of comfort that only a mother can give you, go to GOD. He is a MOTHER to the MOTHERLESS.

Okay, now you need to grow some Egusi melons too Broda - we need those seeds.

What is waterleaf my2cents? Haven't had garri yet but I heard it's like grits.

Yes, I know. I am sure you are familiar with the Guardian Newspaper in Nigeria. I have a very close friend that works for the Guardian. He explained to me how well some people live in Nigeria. I would have to get accustomed to NEPA and the "Go Slow" traffic *LOL* I heard that "Go SLow" is something else. My hubby is from Benin City. Naija men are so special. Boring no, Loving yes, Intelligent yes, very intelligent they are. I told those women to get involved with the culture, learn about their husband's tribes and the country. Be a part of the MAN - learn about his country. One thing I have learned "You can take the man out of Nigeria, but you can't take Nigeria out of the man."

Afeni said, "I do not like submissive women. I like my women more on the independent side."

Afeni you want woman to boss you around o!

I shall remain submissive it hasn't hurt me yet.

I am always on the search engine looking for various things concerning Nigeria, and that is how I found Naira land. Actually I think some topic posted influenced me to join. I love the topics here there are no limitations and the discussions allow me to learn more about the Nigerian people.

my2cents,

How bodi? How dey go dey go? The weekend is here. Yes, this acata lady been hanging around Naija people for 5 years now. I am very familiar with Akwa Ibom State - Uyo in particular. It has been a wonderful life I have to admit. I can cook Egusi, akara, and I love that fufu and dodo. When I retire I am going to Nigerian and chill on my palm tree plantation. Sit back on the porch drink palm wine and burn old rags so the area girls don't bite me. *LAUGHING* Have a good weekend my2cents.

my2cents, no am not married to an Ibibio, but I had one as a boyfriend a while back. I Have to be honest, after being married to Black American men and dating them I felt I deserved more. So, I made the decision to never have another relationship unless it was with an AFRICAN MAN. Well, the only African men I met were Nigerians and I think they are awesome men. I was determined to marry a Nigerian man and I did, and he is the CREAM OF THE CROP. He treats me like a queen and I love him. I consider myself blessed and I am grateful. I have many Nigerian friends and they too are awesome.

my2cents, I am sure you can deal with such people. I have never seen an Ibibio loose a case. *LAUGHING*

my2cents, People fear what they don't understand.

Recently I was in a discussion with a few American women and the topic was "Marrying Nigerian Men". The women claimed that Nigerian men wee demanding, boring, had no romantic nature, and only thought of themselves when having sex. They said Nigerian men were very hard to please. They mentioned that their relaionships with the Nigerian men were fine until the men got citizenship. They claimed once the Nigerian men got USA Citizenship their personalities changed completely. I found this very hard to believe since I am married to a Naija man. I was yold 95% of the Nigerian men that marry American women want citizenship/green card status. I find this hard to believe since I am an American woman that marrried a Nigerian man. All men are hard to please if there is a lack of understanding.

okay here I am.    

The Bible has instructed wives to be submissive to their husbands. The scriptures also state the woman as a helpmate to her husband. Also a man and a woman are suppose to cleave together as "one flesh", meaning unity. The husband is the HEAD of the home and the leader. The wife is the helpmate.
