People have principles or they don't. There are many people who fall under 'God-fearing' that are non-religious or atheist. It takes a special person to use religion to be a better person, it still goes back to who you are or who choose to be despite religion.

The kind of person you are will definitely define the kind of partner you'll ultimately hook up with. You can be looking for a Godfearing man/woman, when you don't even want to hear about God. You'll only get your type because birds of a feather flock together.

When it comes to relationships or picking a partner for marriage, most Nigerians have a long list of preferences and what they want their spouses to possess in order to make a perfect partner.

Men have want their women to be respectful, beautiful, caring, bold and hard-working before they can consider them as "wife materials". This ideology often make some men to be too selective and usually end up being single even in their forties.

What about the women? Nigerian girls are very complicated people and their idea of an "ideal" husband might depend on age.

A teenage girl or one in her early twenties would want a fun guy, the party type that would take her places to have fun on weekends. Any guy that behaves like a husband to a girl of these age bracket will surely be disappointed as her lifestyle and mentality might be too over-whelming for him. These kinds of ladies prefer play boys and fun lovers at the moment.

Since we're talking about ladies who are choosing the kind of men they want to spend the rest of their lives with, let's get down to the point.

What do ladies mean when they say they want a "God-fearing" man?

First let's describe who a God-fearing man is. A person who is God-fearing is an overly religious person who sees nothing more important than his relationship with God. These people are try to live as holy as they can and often times, treats all people with love and respect equally. These kind of people don't lay much emphasis on romance or being a "great husband" and treat their spouses equally with the way they treat other people outside.

Now, with the above description is there any Nigerian woman that would want that kind of man? Many would cringe at the mere idea of marrying a pastor so as not to appear wearing gowns that they wouldn't normally wear.

No Nigerian woman would want to share her husband's love and affection with anyone and clearly, intimacy is a vital ingredient in marriage that must be shown as often as possible so as to keep the bond strong.

Some Nigerian women would likely cheat or even loath on her "God-fearing" husband because well, that isn't what she had hoped for.

So in summary, what people actually mean when they tell you that they want a "God-fearing man" is actually "I want a Good man''.

"I don't want someone who's too religious".

So the question is, why do we say one thing and mean another?.

WHATS THE MEANING OF 404

Cutehector:
if that is the case, nigerian women will date demons because bad men also do good too.

That's the point.

The average Nigerian woman don't want a God fearing man.

A fornicator that sleeps with only you, buys you gifts and take cares of you is not a God fearing man.

They mistake the above for God fearing men.

Lol...you sef be the difference na ..no dey follow these wayward naija girls o

Exmilitant:
Your definition of a 'god fearing' man totally describe me. You write well.

Awesome! Thank you.

1Sharon:


You can be an atheist man and still do those things

An atheist can do some, not all.

An atheist does not fear God because infact, he does not believe their is anything like "God". He does not believe in the existence of deities.

I let my wife know that I'm unpredictable. I give back what she gives me. I don't womanize but I made her believe anything can happen. I always remind her of how imperfect I was made. Never expect too much from your spouse if you really need a good home. 7years gone we are still living in love and living in peace.

if not SEX,it will be FEMALE or YAHOO topic all days.

1Sharon:


How god fearing are you my brother?

I stand for humanity ...

SmartyPants:


How did you arrive at this definition?

Why can't you people approach arguments with logical structure?

That definition reeked so much of ignorance.

They actually mean they want a man who they will be fornicating with, who wouldnt fornicate with others and who will be, at least materially and emotionally, their own.
Once a proper God-fearing man comes to them, they will say, "dont you think this God thing is too serious?"

Because you dey go church no mean say you be God fearing. Ashawo self they go church Sunday morning continue with their hustle for evening time.

That's because Nigerian girls are use......
Let me don't say it. You ladies don't want to do something meaningful with your life. Some of you wants the easy way out of poverty by going into relationship with rich dudes especially yahoo guys and sugar daddies. When you people stop embarrassing us, we'll stop making post about you people.

I also dont want a girl that is too religious
I can't marry a church girl, base on experience from my dad n brother have been advice not to marry a church girl, 90% of them pretend alot

It's named Facebook cos you are supposed to put a picture containing your face on the profile pic space and you are supposed to give out your personal info on your bio for people to access.

Change could be positive or negative, we weren't told the kind of change to expect and so far there's change.. Their promise was fulfilled.

It's named nairaland cos it's a forum where News that concerning Nigerians are discussed.

doubleZ88:
when a Nigerian lady says she wants a god-fearing man its simply; she wants a man who will not cheat on her, not say a word if she cheats likewise.
a man who can accept her d way she is.
a man who can provide all her unending needs.

infact in summery, a woman needs a man she can easily punish.

A God-fearing man is not an overly-religious man! That makes it sound like something negative. You're the one who has got the meaning all skewed up! Either you don't know what it means to be God-fearing or you decided to exaggerate.

I can't speak for everyone. But I want a God-fearing man. When I say I want a God-fearing man, I want a man who's a Christian at heart and in deeds, not a mere church-goer.

- Someone who has healthy boundaries because he has a Godly conscience. There are some things people of the world will do, but a person who fears God will never do them.

- A God-fearing man is not necessarily perfect... far from it, but he consciously tries to be better. He has not resigned himself to bad habits or character traits, with no intention of changing.

- A God-fearing man has a high sense of responsibility. Even on the days when he may want to fall short, he calls himself back to order because he alludes to a higher authority.

- A God-fearing man is not necessarily coy. He is conscious of his sexuality... he can be sexy and naughty and romantic, too.

- A God-fearing man is firm, commands respect and admiration from his immediate family, friends and others.

- A God-fearing man will lead his family with love... he will love his wife as Christ loves the church... and he'll help in raising Godly children.

The idea of a "good" man is very subjective... anyone can claim to be good by whatsoever standards they believe to be good. The idea of a God-fearing man is less subjective and can be more easily metered.

And let me say this for free, a person cannot sustainably be good by themselves. To rely on their own ability for goodness is a ruse! They will fail/hurt you way too many times. It is the working of the Holy Spirit in a man that makes the difference.

This post should be the topic....very well said.

Keep kwayet!

1. When she says she wants a God fearing man she is indirectly talking about a man she can control. A first class simp.




2. If a man tells you he wanna get married to a God fearing lady just know deep down in his heart he is referring to a virgin. Not this borehole.

Your description of a god-fearing man is very shallow. The fact that a man loves God doesn't mean that he's not romantic or he's got no game. We get many levels brothers in my church with styles and class that actually love God. The fact say person love God and chooses to live for God no mean say d person no sabi catch fun or do shits because your definition of fun and mine no fit be the same but that one no mean say you dey get more grove than me. Just saying!

Wat she means by God fearing man is a man who doesn't know his value as a man and a man who still has onetitis and believes in the soulmate bullshit.
Especially if this is coming out from a nonvirgin's mouth after she had hoe herself around
