Perhaps, you are doing something differently from how you used to before you two hooked up... People tend to lose interest in others when they see they way they reason things they do and say stuffs without giving it much thoughts as to if it's reasonable or not..

It's totally not against the law of she reciprocate my feelings for her but not in a way that suggest that she's cheap.... I fall into this category of men and it's gotta not an ego thing or pride thing.. it's psychology...


In this part of the world, we know lil about love.. We mostly act based on what we see in moves and try the same gimmick in reality like we Livin' in dreams.. lols... The thing that shits me the most is... If a guy is Romantic, the lady won't be and vice versa...

Oh ! I get you now. So you’re saying Nigerian men really want ladies to play the hard to get very hard then. So why are they complaining. Well then I’ll keep playing it hard as usual since they think it was bread and butter they got in a platter of gold
You did nothing wrong by showing interest fast. He probably just didn't believe how quickly it happened. He might be experiencing shock, so give him some space and time to come out of it.

It's psychological, it happens in different ways.
But If he loves you, he will come around.grin

I have noticed men especially African men loose interest when a lady becomes interested in them even just a bit. I really don’t get it.

Do men expect women to hate them even when the men love the women? Cos I don’t understand if it should be mutual or not

Your views please
There is a book I will recommend for you to read "Why men love bitches". I like recommending that book to every young girl aspiring to find love. It helps you understand the psychology of dating as it relates to men. Look for it and read, it gives you all the answers nairaland can't offer you.

You spot on... I don't see no point chasing someone who's not ready to reciprocate her feelings.. But instead building walls as you trying to pull em down...

I just don't wanna be emotionally connected to anyone for now.... Maybe forever..
I know how you feel. Be open minded

There's someone you can share your vulnerabilities with. Trust me, you just haven't met her yet. You should start mingling and not hoarding yourself atm

L grin l, it quite funny because ladies sometimes mistake me for this kind of person.

WHY NOT JUST ASK HIM?. YOU MIGHT BE SURPRISED THAT THE ANSWER CAN BE DIFFERENT FROM WHAT U THINK.

Every1 has his or her own problems which varies in sizes. If u are truely interested in him..then there should be no problem asking him. Besides his answer might be of help to u.

Most guys would rather get into ur pants b4 losing interest in you.

Maybe it is not that he is less interested but rather he is not meeting up with ur expectations. Again there might be some obstacles he is seeing but you on your own do not see.

But on a general note, it is not a bad thing to show a guy interest.. but don't just throw yourselve to guys b/c everyone's maturity and interpretation is different. Some may think that u are too cheap. Some might already have a girlfriend and just like u and want to be friend only and nothing more.

Okay. There’s thing guy I met one time last year. So he came up bold and said he was interested in a relationship. He didn’t even waste time. I was impressed . Normally I was supposed to dish out my “naija shakara girls style” you know, but I didn’t . After some days I agreed to date him.

I found out he’s easy going so I decided to give in and be mutual with the love and attraction etc. as soon as I got interested, he withdrew.

I noticed it . I don’t understand why a man will do this. Was he not interested? And does he expect the woman to hate him.

I see some men complain about ladies being hard to get and now a lady didn’t play that much hard yet the man withdrew a bit. Still don’t get men sometimes sha
This kind of guy is interested in a long lasting relationship. If there is no other girl or woman distracting him from focusing on you at that moment, then he noticed something about you which he probably thinks he can't cope with. For instance, it could be that the girl is often sick, or talks or behaves rudely to other people especially members of her own family, or lives above the means of the guy or something else. He is just getting to know you.

The guy that loses interest in a girl he claimed to love is either but not limited to these two things...
The guy has gotten what he wanted from the girl, or the girl is not what the guy thought she was... Ladies can package for Africa sha.

Absolutely, but I don't wanna jeopardise our friendship cause of my feelings for her... We've come a long way.. We chat everyday since the day we met and she always tell me about how much she loves our unending chat and says "l love you" every night.. I am afraid asking her out would atomatically end our friendship and I can't imagine a life without her in it..
Re: Why Do Guys Lose Interest When A Lady Acts Interested In Them? by cooljoe(m): 10:30pm On May 01, 2020
This thing is sha true o. I feel maybe guys are just hunters, they enjoy the thrill of the chase. Once the woman is won over, the hunt looses a bit of its appeal.

It apply to both genders, if u show interest in someone that does not like u, it won't change what they feel towards u. But when u show interest in someone who likes u, he will naturally reciprocate. U ladies feel once u show interest in any man, he should reciprocate, because u are a lady, it doesn't work like that. A man also need to feel something for u.
On point

The man with a true future.


" The man on the progressive path/pathway "



How me hard one thing to your life tips. The right man any lady should look out for is what we sages call :


" The man on the progressive path/pathway "


These are guys who at the immediate moment may look unpolished but breaking with ideas, many that seem somewhat unrealistic. These are guys that are constantly looking for how to improve on themselves and better thier lots


Guess what, when you'll meet them, you'll find 70-80% broke. But give them time, five to seven years. This is when to catch them on that upward trajectory so as to cement your grip and position as fruits of their exercises begins to hit maturation season.


A man with a self improvement consciousness will never miss success but maybe delayed, but would make excellent marriage partners as their push to better themselves continues to stir them towards improving everything around them.[/quote]

I remember the chic i got thru wrong call,after some talk we got to meet,she had one of the amazing ass in the world not nigeria only.
I invited her to my school then in another state.
I bleeped this girl that i almost released blood.
Everytime i see her naked ass on the bed my dick would come back,she had to force me to cover my eyes while she wore her clothes.
Another was with the softest lips i even told her lips was like chewing gum grin

I feel sorry if such is the scenario. People lose interest once their person of interest for so many reasons. One of this which I think is the case here is psychological posturing. What this means is some people are used to working extremely hard aka hustling for things. Their entire life rests on a perspective that what they must have, they must work for, unfortunately some of this whole way of thinking affects even not working aspects of their lives.
wow UA right and fall in the category
I can relate
but now the problem is I don't find it anymore funny if a lady I try to woo is giving me too much hard to get... I usually forgo such lady easily and move on quickly
Re: Why Do Guys Lose Interest When A Lady Acts Interested In Them? by Nobody: 10:53pm On May 01, 2020
Personally, I don't like to waste anybody's time and I hate people wasting my time. I like it when guys come out straight up to tell me how they feel about me. if I feel the same way, we can move the ministry forward. If I don't feel the same way, I'll let you know immediately so that everyone can move on quickly.

If I like a guy, I have never told any them how I feel. But I always show them all the signs of someone interested in them. If they don't reciprocate it back, I stop showing those signs, and I move on with my life.

Dont get it twisted....

There is something about you that puts him off.
Fine from afar, far from fine.

1. bad breath
2. poor hygiene ( generally and down below)
3. Poor mentality
4. wack vocabs
5. Demanding
6. clingy
7. Baggage carrier

and a host of others.

This is nothing but fine from afar, far from fine syndrome.

Yours truly swing this lane alot. Ain't got time to waste.

The average Nigerian man suffers from an extremely weak self esteem that needs to stay constantly bloated to stay functional.
That's why they chase after ladies who treat them like shi.t and avoid ladies who show them love. The hunt makes them happy. The thrill of having to constantly woo a woman makes them feel good. Makes them feel she is better than the one who shows love even without being wooed..even if the former is a retired runs girl.
you have no iota about how the minds of men work.

What you listed above are characteristics of play boys and average Joes.

Something definitely happened that he obviously cant tell you. A guy can be asking several girls out and they all start falling in one after the other. He wont be able to manage all at the same time .So he withdraws from one or more based on his own criteria of who is a better catch

.

I didn't say Nigerian men. I simply wrote about some persons, male and female, humans in general. It's psychological immaturity. Don't let their immaturity lead you to form new unhealthy habits. If you like the person, keep them far, and watch them beg for your attention as they outgrow their mental posturing. For now, go for where you're worshipped, not where you're tolerated


As for me, I don't want a lady I have interest in making it hard, at my age, level of maturity, five minutes is what I want to bear chasing anyone. Nothing more. In fact, I rather be chased
You're definitely an alpha male like me...
