There's no right or wrong answer to this sha. I'll speak from the perspective of a man.

Using the tailor analogy, the kind of dress you want to sew will determine the kind of material you'll settle for. Them nor dey use aso oke sew white wedding gown.

For me, the qualities for MY OWN wife material rating includes but not limited to:
1. She has self-worth (Doesn't tolerate rubbish from outsiders including me - I don't mean trouble making mike tyson o, i mean the way she carries herself).

2. Respectful - As a man, I don't want much, but that respect, chai, very important - I don't mean greetings, I mean your tone in talking to me, not belittling my opinions, regard for the things I hold dear... Never raised her voice.

3. She works and knows the value of money - A woman who has worked before or own a business doesn't really get entitled to your money UNLESS YOU BOUGHT THE RELATIONSHIP FROM THE BEGINNING - so she's always grateful no matter how small ehat you give or do to her.

4. She sabi cook a variety of foods - Nor be me fo marry who go use indomie give our children kwashiorkor.

5. She has skills, and is always learning.

6. She has a mind of her own, quite smart and doesn't live her life on brain rot and ragebait contents on IG and TikTok.
I am okay with just 2, 3 and 4. In life, we can not have it all.

You see the 2 and 3, that's the hardest things girls of this generation will ever possess.

They lack respect, and handful of them are jobless.

Omo, to see wife no easy o in this Gen-z generation.

Why am I so uncomfortable with telling a woman what I want in a woman? The moment she hears them, she starts pretending to have one or all of the qualities. The moment you wife her, and you have your first misunderstanding, all caution will be thrown to the wind and you'll start seeing her true qualities

Understood Sir. But to each one his own . I'm everything I listed there, and I also happen to have a girlfriend who's everything I listed.

Them hard to find, just that most people dey find them in the wrong places or wrong body.

You're right with the bolded. We learn every day. Can you share some tips about the right places to find those wife material types?

And if you don't mind, also give a hint on where you met your girlfriend.

If you are an unmarried man, take my advice on this matter.
Marry a woman of peace.
Marry a woman who will still respect you even when she is angry with you.
Marry a woman who does not ever consider divorce or separation as an option because I can assure you that no matter how much money you think you have, dark days will come and your marriage will be tested through hot fire.
I have seen and heard things within two years that I never thought I would see or hear in my lifetime.
If you like, make big nyannsh and sabi knack the criteria for who you marry.
Your eye go clear.

Hehe... I found mine on one social media platform that has gone extinct now. We were friends for a while before Cupid nack me better arrow for my heart. But that was before social media went to the dogs sha.

About where to meet people, think conferences, non-owambe events where people actually come to learn or pay to attend such places. And generally, be a good person - good attract good.

This video is clear evidence that school is not a scam. More guys need to study clinical psychology and then train other guys so the world can be a better place.
