Not entirely true. Independent women don't respect fuckboys. They respect character and charisma. If you are more intelligent smarter, you will run her world.

Oga Tonye, I least expected this comment from you. I used to hold you in high esteem but what you said up there isn't correct. There's difference between a feminist and an independent lady.
The difference between miss independent and miss feminism is semantics especially in the Nigeria context.

I can date/marry Miss Independent non-Nigerian but virtually all Miss Independent Nigerians I've met are engrained with Naija version of feminism. I can't fit die quick biko

OK.

So you rather marry a woman who solely depends on you even for N500 Always pad shocked.

See Ehn, the truth is that most Nigerian women do not understand the true meaning of Feminism, they're just brainwashed by TheChimamandaMovement. Trust me, there are independent women who aren't feminists. I can bank on that! smiley

Madam, I rather have my wife work (as long as it doesn't affect or threaten running of the family) or run a business that will be fetching her money to support the family.

It isn't her load to take charge of financing the family, it's my job as a Man and head of the house. Hers is to support by engaging in productive venture that wouldn't jeopardize or threaten the smooth running of the family.

You see, Miss Independent Nigeria doesn't fit into this narrative. To her, there is no leader or boss in the home (imagine threatening my office grin), to her if I can't do this then I have no right to "control" her. Abeg make Miss Independent Nigeria carry dia load go biko....


Feminism as a concept is about allowing females enjoy same right as males. To me that has been achieved already but most Naija females misinterpret it as challenging the man in all things including in the home.

Abeg, I can't cope with Naija women that are leeches (I detest lazy girls), Miss Independent or Feminists. I can get semi dependent I think

What happens to 21st century?

There is something called semi-dependent woman. My mother is one! She doesn't disturb my Dad for every money for maggi and pepper yet she isn't a career fixated woman. She engaged in productive venture to support the house and augment whatever my father brought to the table. Yet, her number 1 priority is her role as wife and mother. This is what I seek...

I don't seek someone that will put career ahead of everything in life biko!

Oga na play you de. When a woman is 100% independent and is career oriented, she will never submit under your leadership. If she earns more than you, what you will get is a Tiwa kind of wife. Most Women aren't known to be humbled by wealth, power or fame, especially Naija women. They are usually puffed up!

If you like set rules na Oyo be your case

Women are difficult to approach is almost their replies....

In my own experience, most men are conditioned to be nice to ladies. Sometimes because they are 'gentlemen', other times because they have other 'plans'. Ladies on their part employ all sorts of manipulative techniques, which works better on men.
Try it on a fellow woman and you'll meet a brick wall.

Re: 16 Key Peculiarities Of Dating An Independent Woman by aspiring44: 3:28pm On Jul 08, 2018
its different guides for different strokes.

independent o ,feminist o has to do with character.

if one is married to an independent woman you will definitely be happy ,but it depends on how you have been able to shape her. Character is inbuilt. Though the ego thing gets into them uncontrollably

that is the problem

Kudos. However, your submissions are a bit contradictory, but the reason isn't farfetched; you lump the ones whose self-esteem are rooted in weak self-sufficiency with those whose self-esteem are rooted in strong self-sufficiency. The former are toxicity personifies (the wannabe feminists), while the latter are harmlessness and harmoniousness personifies.

Independent women whose self-esteem are rooted in weak self-sufficiency are akin to beta men. They're perfect definition of small-mindedness. Only men who're subjugable or ready to self-slave can put up with them. Nothing gives them pleasure than when they humiliates their men, especially in public, just to give impression that they're in control. And it's always about them - self and self-interest - conscientiousness isn't in their life dictionary. To them impoliteness in particular and vices in general are signs of power and strength, respectively. They tends to mistake people of goodness for weaklings - their inabilities to differentiate goodness from servility is always their undoing - I don't hold brief for servile men (people).

Meanwhile, independent women whose self-esteem are rooted in strong self-sufficiency are blissfulness and blessings to good men in particular and good people in general. They're perfect definitions of aristocracy and virtuousness. As strong-minded as they're, yet, they're always conscientious, it's not always about them - they aren't usually preoccupied with self and self-interest - but about what's right at any point in time. They knows that politeness in particular and goodness in general aren't signs of weakness but that of dignity and strength, respectively. This class of women, when they chooses to identify with feminism, gives it a pleasurable taste to savour by all sane and sound people irrespective of one's perspective towards the movement.

Nice write up.
EntertainingYou:
Seems like everything’s clear about dating. There are two people who like each other and want to try their luck together. However, the conception of femininity rapidly changes in the modern world. We face an increasing number of strong women today. Their images are cultivated by pop culture, their life circumstances push to accrue power. She loves who she is. When a growing person goes through some difficulties and becomes strong, it is another way of self-realization. She has chosen to be independent and enjoys it now. Thus, you shouldn’t expect she will change her patterns of behavior.

1.Prepare to be a part of her life. Yes, only a part – not the sense of it. Her life is already full: there are career goals to achieve, hobbies to immerse in, her friends and family etc. And, strictly speaking, it is a healthy way of thinking.

2.She will tend to refuse your help. Of course, this doesn’t mean she will never accept it at all. Yet this woman is self-reliant and knows her worth. She might even feel uncomfortable about getting your assistance.

3.Your connection can be very inspiring. Strong people with remarkable accomplishments do give inspiration. Likewise, your girlfriend will seek it in you. In other words, such a woman looks for valuable communication with a man.
4.You will receive a lot of freedom. An independent girl loves to be free so she will likely fall for an independent man. If you are such a man, it is a big plus – you can manage your working tasks or go out with your buddies.

5.She doesn’t want to deal with your jealousy. It is easy to guess that a self-sufficient lady is unready to give up her interests (especially when you pressure on her). By the way, her schedule is often too busy to cheat on you.


6.Yet she still wants to be loved. Her qualities do not make her an alien. Just like any woman, she longs for appreciation, support, advice, and devotion.

7.She needs someone compatible. It’s clear that her relationship with a needy guy won’t last long. Any girl dreams about a partner who would share her life values and views and possess similar traits.

8.She is not afraid of being single. Love is super important in our life but this is not the only treasure we should search for. Besides, there are periods of time when we just want to take a break and focus on some other things.

9.Don’t think she ought to do anything. The mere fact she is your girlfriend doesn’t mean you can put obligations on her against her will. On the other hand, independent people are usually open for discussion. Search for compromises together!

10.She might be (or seem to be) emotionally unavailable. Again, there are many issues outside your relationship that excite or trouble her. Don’t expect her to be overly affectionate even though you definitely know she loves you. Today, young and busy ladies perceive romance differently.

11.She doesn’t like to play stupid games. Like when you take a step forward and two steps back. This may work with dependent girls who don’t know how to entertain themselves. Girls we are talking about in this article are much more determined.
12.Her character is rather peculiar. She may turn out to be stubborn, demanding, bold, aggressive etc. So yeah, this might be scary a little bit. At the same time, these qualities are splendid if people know how to use them right.

13.She is able to take the initiative. Another big perk of dating her is that she can be proactive. Since she doesn’t tend to rely on anyone, she is less afraid of doing deeds. Her self-esteem is adequate enough so even if you think she is a weirdo, this girl won’t really care.

14.She looks for the right person to marry or have a long-term relationship with. Independent girls are usually picky. Keep this in mind and become the bets version of yourself!

15.Her love is pure. You see, a woman if this type can earn money and maintain herself. She is a grown person who is able to manage various problems. If she loves you, it is all because of your rich individuality, not your wealth or social status.
