To reiterate, I communicate with my boyfriend. I do not think that Nigerians are con artist. In fact I find it kind of weird that everyone keeps bringing that up when I never said that. Read my initial post. We are getting very serious and I care about him a lot. I know where he lives, I've slept there many times, I know all of his close friends and we have a great relationship. I'm just trying to understand our differences. I don't want to repeatedly ask him and his friends because I don't want to make a big deal about it but it does concern me. If you're not give an honest constructive opinion then simply don't post on the topic. Thanks |

Ricky_Ross: If you dont trust this guy pls leave him alone. I'm not white I'm a black American. I never said I didn't trust him because he is Nigerian. I wanted to know if Nigerian men were just secretive and if that were the reason it seemed as if he was hiding something from me. He's lived in the US since college and has citizenship so he doesn't need me for a green card lol In fact if he were a con artist he would be a dumb one because he's never tried to use me for anything. He makes way more money than me. We talk everyday and I see him all the time even though we live in two different states. I actually have had a very in depth conversation with his friend about our differences but I think It's crossing the line to talk about this with his friends. So you are wrong wrong wrong and it looks like you are the one that made all of the wrong assumptions! |

miss-sweety86: I'm not saying, nor have I ever stated, that I believe that he is doing something illegally simply because he is Nigerian. That would be a stupid assumption to make. I brought up the cultural difference because I believe that maybe that is the issue. I honestly really just want to understand whether or not he is vague because Nigerian men are just vague and not because he is lying. I don't want to offend him by constantly bringing it up if its just the way he communicates. |

miss-sweety86: Thanks for the well wishes. We seem to be exactly in the same predicament. He's going to Nigeria next month and he invited me but my work schedule won't really allow it with all of the time ill already have off because of the holidays. We've also discussed things I also read from reading about dating Nigerian men. If I went by what I've read it seems like I'm almost a polar opposite to the type of girl he would marry (I'm light skinned, skinny, dont really cook and I'm pretty "Americanized" as he would say). When I brought it up though, he acted as if I completely made the stuff up out of thin air. He told me that he didn't like that his ex girlfriend acted American but its ok for me because I am American. I didn't really know if I should be offended or not but I just let it go. I do not doubt that whether or not he cares about so I guess I'll just trust him. Thanks |

Red-Light: Are you completely open with her if she ask you questions though? Or are you kind of allusive? I trust him for the most part, I just hope he's not lying to me about this one thing. |

miss-sweety86: miss-sweety86: I haven't met any of his immediate family members because they live in Nigeria but I know most of his friends and have traveled with them. Because we live in different states I travel once a month to visit him. I have actually asked him to explain exactly what it is he does and he has no problem telling me, it's just I don't understand how it all works together. For example, he's a consultant but he also exports cars. I don't see why he would need to travel out of the country to say Canada to do that. |

Okay, so basically I'm dating a Nigerian man that lives in a different state than I do. I've known him for almost 2 years now but we have only been in a exclusive committed relationship for the past 2 months. I see him pretty much every month and everything is going well. My problem is that I feel like he is keeping something from me about what he does as a profession. He says he's a business consultant but a few things just aren't adding up. He never seems to really work but he tells me he is at the office sometimes. He leaves to go to random countries for "work" but he never elaborates on the details. Whatever it is that he does he makes a lot of money. I guess I want to know if Nigerian men just don't go into much details about what they do or their whereabouts? Or does it seem like he is involved in something illegal? I'm a black American and I have noticed that we have cultural differences in our upbringings, behavior and beliefs but overall I really care about him and I know he cares about me too. It just feel like he is hiding something. What do you guys think? |
