I suppose, for you, he should keep the temptation of knowledge away from his wife least she be led astray? Go on, ubunja, tell him to get her a niqaab.

This is a buda thread. Use your brain or fuq off!
Romance novels are a bad idea. Why not books on her hobbies? Maybe she loves cooking. Then cookery books. Maybe she loves traveling. Then traveling books.

She has the romance already. No need daydreaming of it.

Don’t date a man who reads. He will be interesting. Your romantic dates will be like Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Your late night conversation will take hours to end. He will throw ideas and expect you to bounce something back. Brain exercises are not for the lazies.

Don’t date a man who reads. He is fine spending time on his own. He can entertain himself for hours with or without you. A Brief History of Time might be your worst enemy. You might wonder if he is having an affair with Emma or Jane Eyre. You will always have to share his time with books. And, when you work late, he won’t get upset; books will keep him company.

Is this supposed to be a problem? Having a partner who likes to read and is knowledgeable?

Are you kidding?

So you think dating a dumb, unintelligent fellow is the best. Sisters, please if you are a dating a man, make sure he knows things you don't know, it's super cool. A well read man is an exposed man.

Nobody wants a dumbo

Introducing Nairaland 10 Days Book Challenge

budaatum:
Thank you op! This is wonderful. I'll try really hard not to let indiscipline get in the way and take up the challenge.

After my father told me about this book I spent years trolling book sellers on Lagos streets till I found it one day and bought it with money dad sent me weekly shopping with to his delight though we had no food that week!

Book Title: Basket of Flowers

Author: Christoph von Schmid

First encounter: 1975

Little is known about the origin of The Basket of Flowers, except that it is translated from the French by someone known only as J.H. St. A. The value of this excellent volume lies in its content, which is thoroughly God-honoring and scriptural. The story centers on a gardener named James and his young daughter Mary. Their simple, joyful life is interrupted when Mary is accused of theft. During the trial, Mary maintains her innocence and tells the truth, in spite of great pressure. But Mary and her father are convicted as thief and accomplice and begin their sentence for their crime. Throughout their sentence, James encourages Mary with lessons from nature about the gospel of Jesus Christ and continues to prepare her for what is to come. A well-written book and an encouraging tale for all readers.

It is guttenberg downloadable for those who desire to read it.

A two paragraph advice is a four minute read? People actually find reading difficult.

All! From History to Politics to Prose to Biographies to Articles.

As long as it's written in a book, I'm reading it.

But I love History books a lot, love going back to time. Especially using the print media.

Just the story of my life right now.
I wish I waited till now to get married.
My wife hates books and sees nothing in them. I am her opposite.
My marital life is so boring and unattractive to me at the moment. I just can't undo this, but most times I wish.
Yes you can undo. It is called divorce.

I'm not sure I'll like to marry someone that's allergic to intelligent convo. Or someone that so watches Yoruba movies to the extent she now believes in a talking stone because it was portrayed in a movie. It's not necessarily that my wife reads and reads and reads. No. Rather I'll like someone, who, whenever I make mention of a particular notion or start a conversation on a particular topic, she'll be at least a bit conversant with the topic and not like she'll start looking like a lost sheep while I do all the talkings alone.

I definitely don't want boring kids. angry

This is "reverse psychology" people..

OP is in essence saying, 'date a man who reads'. Let's learn to read people's real messages

Why would she use reverse psychology on us when she knows quite well that we are Nigerians?? She no know say na small thing dey make us quick vex?

Next time, if she wan do the reverse psychology again, she should inform us 3 market days prior so we can prepare our minds well for the psychology!

Inugo!?
