Madness dey some girls body because then think say man keep them for house mean say dey go dey forget their manners anyhow.

A lady really annoyed me this morning.
I had gone to the park to board a taxi back home. The guy who was loading for the driver directed me to the taxi that was loading. An elderly guy sat at the front seat while a lady was seated by the door and she was the only one sitting at the back. Note that the drivers take three passengers at the back.
Immediately I saw how the lady sat at the door- her body language- I decided to enter from the other side but another passenger beat me to it plus I was approaching the taxi from her side to I just decided to enter through there.
The lady rather than shift to the middle came out for me to enter without any form of excuse which I found annoying.
I made my displeasure know to her but she just kept mute as if no be human being dey follow talk. I still repeated myself.this lady just start blowing out like burning charcoal, shouting at the top of her voice that "do I think she is a baby for me to treat her like that".

To make matters worse,the passengers and driver were telling me to not retaliate because na women. Na so we go continue to dey tolerate nonsense. Even na guy, I go still tell am wetin he do no correct.

She is very much right.
You only have a right to a particular seat if the bus or taxi you are boarding has the seat Nos attached to the tickets.
That woman has made a choice of where she think will be comfortable for her in the bus.
You just came around and want her to sacrifice her comfort for you. Why will she do dat?
You have to plead to her and make her see reason for that sacrifice.
It's not enough to relinquish her position to you cos you assumed the status of a man.
So stop that silly belief that women are supposed to be in the middle of a car seat while men sit at the two extremes.

Next time, come to the park on time and chose ur favourite seat first.

Woman don slap me before, i just ignored her and left. I mean tear rubber slap o, but i ignored and left. If u follow those peeps eh u fit go do wetin u no suppose do.

I don't understand. You don't want to sit in the middle and you want any person to sit in the middle because sai na woman. If you know you were right, you should have ask your fellow man to enter middle for you to sit. Bro na public transport, first come first serve. You are wrong here.

If I get your point, you're expecting her to shift inside while you sit right? Who does that? You met her in a public transport and you are expecting her to sold her right for you, oh are you related or like I'm missing something here? Well, the lady has done nothing wrong but only protecting her right.
By the way how old are you as something is telling me you are an underage not to have no when you are wrong or not.

I like how you are being blasted here. Especially from the guys. I don't understand your issue.

Person come down for you say make you sit down, you dey vex. undecided And you're still relating it to her being married.

Is the other passenger a lady? If it was a man, aside the fact that she may love window seats - what if she was uncomfortable sitting between men??
I was expecting him to make it out with the other passenger that beat him to left door. sure that would be a match for him man to man, so the woman remained the soft target to vent his anger.

I did this same thing here in ABK yesterday, the taxi I was in pulled over for a passenger who hailed it for his trip. knowing he was going a couple of a hundred of metres to a thousand metres from my drop off point, I came out of vehicle for him to come in (no objection from him).

he had a carton on him, both legs of his were at my foot rest, na so I enter park myself for one corner (nobi to reach my destination.) why I go tell ham to move, man wey carry carton for hand inside hot sun, the thing get as e be. looking at him I wouldn't want to stress him further.

the op is not serious, he wanted the window seat but failed in securing the left window by losing it to a man rather return to a soft target to vent his aggression.

What were you planning to do when you wanted to go through the other door?

Was it not to sit by the door on the other side?

because someone else beat you to it and probably you couldn't stand up to that person, you chose to attempt to intimidate the lady. Unfortunately, your plan didn't work out and you came here to wail like a kid.

A lady did the same to me few months ago. I happened to be the last person to complete the sienna bus at the middle row, everyone had sat down ,so I'm to enter & close the door but this stupid lady quickly jumped down telling me to enter, I was like how could you get down & tell me to enter when I'm suppose to enter & the car moved,I didn't answer her , after few minutes she started shouting at me,staying aall sort of things, I ignored her. Last last na she enter& I entered after her & the car moved.

That's how I was coming from lectures 2 years ago, when a bike with one passenger on it stopped to carry me. I expected the man
(passenger) to shift so I can sit behind him, but her refused and started shouting like a boar undergoing castration without sedation. He said if I can't sit in the middle, he'll pay for my space and go alone, I said fine they should go. I boarded another bike few minutes later. when we got to one round about, the shouting man and the bike man were already involved in a fatal accident. I was surprised and shocked at the same time.

Op at times ehn, just leave some people with their problems, you never can tell what they just saved you from. Like my pops will say, when you are on the road, believe you are the only one normal.
Nothing will happen to them.

Well, your point register well.
I don’t know what made you think, she owe you an explanation.

You met her there, already sitting by the door/window and you want her to explain to you that is just arriving at the park her reasons for choosing that seat? Just like the lady on the other side ran/walk faster and chanced you into sitting over there, do you know what sacrifices and efforts she have taken to earn that seat?

Maybe she woke up very early, while you are still sleeping, took speed bike and pay extra, chanced someone else to get that seat, and you just want to take it like that, you have self entitlement problems, check yourself

If you are truly objective and look at this fairly, you will conclude that, you are the one that lacks courtesy. If you want someone to give up their seat in a public setting for you a new comer, when everyone is paying the same fair, courtesy demands that, you explain to her, why she should give up her window seat for you.

They usually say, there are two sides to a story and you need all sides in other to reach a fair conclusion, but on this your account alone, the lady is right and you are wrong.

Guy sorry to say this but na you get problem here. It is public transport and first come first serve. She was there before you came, how do you now expect her to give up her space for you? and did you even ask politely? guess not from your writes up. Attitude matters a lot, and from your writes up, you seems to be the type of guy that believes that a man is always right. This is wrong, give respect, not because of gender, religion, sex or age but because it is appropriate.
