pocohantas:If she wants reasonable men she should holla me. I got too much reasonable and cool dudes. But there are actually reasonable men out there, I wonder where women are looking at. Online dating is the worst place to find reasonable men. |

First off, you have done nothing wrong. Your heart, your terms. Time and chance my dear. That, is what i thnk you need. Focus on your NYSC (probably you'll meet him there) and be out to get a good job ( another place you might meet him). All other things will fall in place. All the Best. |

This problem happens to almost every Nigerian female: they have nothing to offer but want the world thrown at their feet. Don’t worry pocohantas, until you start approaching men you will never find the one who meets your set standards. Keep waiting for men to make the first move and you’ll stay disappointed as usual with the ones who do. I also don’t see anything wrong in your situation because the average male faces worse. Stay happy that men come in the first place. There’s also the stupid fear and lack of confidence women always possess which I sense in this write-up. I guess it’s why females normally take pleasure in destroying a man’s God-given pride when the chance raises itself. For all I know this OP is not who I think but one of the older females here forming sisi. I give zero f-ucks. Humans are never satisfied with what comes their way. I don’t see anything wrong in the lifestyle choice you picked. If you feel there’s anything you’re not doing right you’ll loosen up eventually. The search for sex is so strong it makes humans go out of their way once in a while (actually once in many whiles). This account was used also because my main username is very popular. |

Harlequeen:You're still young. Work on yourself. Prepare yourself for the type of man you're looking for because that man might meet you and be just as disappointed as you were with those other guys. |

How come yahoo plus exists and it works.... If you are in Naija and you can still ask how life is spiritual then you may already be a victim |

The OP has standards. But men with those standards don’t think she’s up to their own standards. Life is a pot of beans... and dodo. |

Harlequeen:You’re looking for someone about ten years older than you that is ambitious. Get the facts. You’re by my guessing in your 20s. So whoever you’re looking for is most likely in their 30s. One thing about ambitious men is that they tend to settle down early. Those who can’t settle down early will have one very important reason they haven’t(may be personal). So the probability that that ambitious man would’ve settled down before 30 is very high ruling him out of your age preference. The few once who are yet to decide will be ruled out by the fact that they will most likely appear as unserious cos of their little achievement and advanced age. My advice is to either cut out the age thing cos the zeal of ambition is mostly visible in 20s. In the 30s, the ambition is mostly a personal struggle and won’t be visible in the mans life style. |

[quote author=Lightway post=84568000]Look at this... When I was in the Univeristy i set a high standard for myself.. i didnt look at broke girls twice and I could only date girls with 100k in their account.... I look out for the rich people and associate them. Here is your problem You didnt really specify the specs you want... Define an ambitious man. Should he have a million dollars in his account or 1 million? Should he have a car or cars? Should he be black or white? Will you accept a man with a tattos? You only gave these descriptions He should be well spoken, either with a career or into trade, accomplished, way older by at least 10 yrs There are many men with these features, so you need to be very specific. When you narrow down the characteristics that interest you, ask yourself one question... Where can you find this kind of man? On the street? By the road? In the highbrows of lekki, like you said Or on social media? If you cant find him, then ask yourself... Does this man really exist? Sometimes we watch too many movies, listen to too many social media talks, consume too many relationship books and shows and all that garbage push us to fantasize and create a partner (man) that doesn't exist... Just look at your man, you want him to have all the great features just the same way a lot of people want all the bad in the world to be gone.. In reality, the world is so bad that some people dont want to live in it anymore and they commit suicide. But there are great people out there doing good, with a good heart and a giving spirit. You have seen them and you probably envy them. Unknown to you, many of these people already know the truth, they have studied the bad in this world and learned how to live with it... So while they do good, no one can cheat them or outwit them because they know whats up. So while your man must has good, impressive features he must have bad features too. And while you're fantasizing about the perfect man for you, remember that no one is perfect and there is no perfect man. In fact, you might find out that no man has all the qualities you want. Instead, they have most, a few or none of these attributes. The right thing to do would be to give those with most of these features you want a chance and learn from there. Try to learn lessons while you're younger, because they'll sharpen your decision making skills when you get older. I learned this while chasing after the right partner while I was making 200k per month and hunting only ambitious ladies. So, the feeling is mutual Harlequeen Well written |

GrabHisBalls:Of course everyone should have standards, but what the op mentioned is too much, she should reevaluate her standards to things more reasonable and she even said when she meets men with her standard she doesn't like them. What else does the op wants, make she kuku use clay build her own man. |

What do you have to offer? I didn't see anything special in what you listed as selling points. You are not even a virgin. And you are average looking too. And you also don't have a well established career from what you said. What do you have to offer for all those high standards? The man that fits your criteria is a hot cake. You are not the only woman that wants him. So what do you have to offer that others don't. |

adanny01:sex is high risk and low reward for women and not pleasant for all women. That is why faking it is almost second nature to so.e women. I am not saying i don't like sex, i don't regret being sexually active. I am not in a relationship, and do not see the point sleeping around. |

Harlequeen:Man (human being) has many variations. That is , it is very difficult to predict a man. What he will be or not. Life is not about what is, it is about what will be. The best plans in life don't always work and sometimes, a "no plan" eventually get the job done. Don't categorise people only by what you heard them say, sometimes they could do exactly opposite. when I was in service, I had a female friend (...still friends). She knows me as a womanizer and a proud person. She was wondering how she was coping with me. But somehow, I made it clear to her from beginning that our contact cannot go beyond friendship. She thought I was bluffing...that I had ulterior motive to get under her pant. Since she known me for that. Hence she was always very cautious. And I will be there laughing at her caution. One day someone joked about her marrying me. She was offended. She said I am never serious about life ( not in an annoying way though). I always laugh at her assumptions. She thought she knew me. But she didn't. As time passes, She began to develop feelings. I reminded her again about what I told her earlier. Because I don't want anybody to be crying on my neck. I made it clear to everyone I was rolling with that it was just for fun. She knew about that. That further heightened her assumption that I was just for the puna. After service, her feelings has become full blown. Cry and tears I now order of the day. That was what i was avoiding. She is a pure soul. I don't have money yet. So she wasn't crying because I have money. She later discovered my DEEP SEATED ambitions. And she discovered that they tally TOTALLY with what she wanted in a man. It is those ambitions that are preventing me from going for her even now. Because they are not fulfilled yet. and she wants to brake her own rules with the hope that they will be fulfilled in the future. But I am not ready to break mine. the moral of my boring story is that just live. Answers will locate you in human form when you least expected. And I would advise that setting standard for people doesn't always work. |

Harlequeen:The first question you should ask yourself is: Do I myself possess all these wonderful qualities and qualifications I desire in a marriage partner? If you really do, the right person will soon discover you or be discovered by you. But if not.... seriously, you're on a long thing! Blessings. |
| Re: I Don't Know What My Problem Is With Men And Dating by uscofield: 11:43am On Dec 03, 2019 |

Harlequeen:Unfortunately, Nigerian women MUST choose between lazy but faithful. Many men out there have no plans for their lives, which is why there are more successful women than men. |
| Re: I Don't Know What My Problem Is With Men And Dating by skinnyinc(m): 11:44am On Dec 03, 2019 |
Harlequeen:I think you should just be open minded and dont expect too much. Believe me there are a lot of great people out there. And then lastly friendship should be the basis of whatever it is you intend going into. There is still time hun so steady steady ok. All the best hun |
