ijustdey: the woman could not fit into others not having problems with using ''my dear'' for just about anyone, but she wants others to force themselves into her standards. the said woman doesn't have a place in multicultural society like ours |

Why should another Man's wife be Dear to you? Worse case is that She is not Dear as a Friend in the office, but as a neighbour. The Man was looking for trouble 3 Likes |

So the woman in the OP resorted to going physical on the man because of "my dear"? It wasn't enough that she already berated him, she had to lay her hands on him? |

Nbote: You have made relevant deductions. On the other hand: May be there were people around when the man responded with "my Dear" and it became shameful for the woman to keep mute to a "my Dear" from an outsider who's not her husband. I am of the view that if not to save face, a woman who voluntarily greeted a Man will not be offended simply because the man responded with ”my Dear" 2 Likes |

With all our individual "complexes", we still remain underdeveloped... If you greet, problem; If you don't greet, problem; If you don't respond to greeting, problem; If you respond; problem with the manner of response; na wa oooo... Can't we just keep things simple for Pete's sake? Kids address their parents by their first names in some countries, and the sky doesn't fall. We claim to be so cultural yet produce some of the dregs of the modern world. 1 Like |

You responded my dear, she objected and said take it back. You simply say "I'm sorry madam". Thereafter you can choose never to respond to her greeting again. She be trouble maker and the guy na trouble finder. 2 Likes |

olajide8: Girls want to feel that way, it's there nature so it means something more personal to them. A girl using it here and there definitely derives sone form of pleasure of intimacy in it. |
