It's possible sha. But any woman who wants to do so MUST be sure that the guy has what it takes to make it in life in the not-so-distant future. Or else you are OYO

To all my ladies out there, you can get even better if you do these;
1. Develop yourself: The gospel truth is that the kind of person you are determines the kind of men you attract. If you want to attract correct guys, make yourself appealing to them by doing the ff;
A. acquire some measure of independence. This cannot be over-emphasized. Even if you don't have a job yet, look for small business to do. Any decent business at all.
B. Don't ever ask him for stuffs. If he's the caring type, he will spend on you on his own. Give him like 4 months to start get comfortable enough to start giving you stuff. If he doesn't, watch him closer for signs of stinginess. If he is, then I think you will be better off without him.
C. Work on your self esteem. My dear sisters, a woman without self esteem is as good as dead. Trust me. Don't ever throw yourself at a man till you are sure he's willing to catch you. Love youself.
D. Work on your inter-personal skills. Learn how to relate with people. Learn social etiquettes and graces.
E. Be true to youself. Most correct guys can see right through pretence. If you are angry, show it, if you are sad, show it, if your are hungry, show it, e.t.c the key is just to know how to express yourself in a respectable way. Most ladies really need to get rid of pretence. The reason why most guys date their gfs for 2-3 yrs before proposing is because they ve not seen much of her true self. So they need more time to figure out if they can marry her or not. Showing your true xter (and being consistent) hastens their decision. (I v known my fiance for only 5 months)
F. Be natural. Let him see you sometimes without make-up, artificial nails, hair (even if you think you are not pretty without them) the importance of this is to make him appreciate you the way you are. A man feels more comfy with a woman who is not afraid of showing her true self/looks. It makes him feel safe enough to open up to you.

2. Get a life!:
A. Go out, enjoy yourselves, meet people, all kinds of people.
B. Find a hobby, go gyming, anything relaxing and soothing.
C. If you are student, study hard and make sure you get good grades. If you are a graduate, get a job or start a business. Even if it's only 5K you have, you can do something with it.
D. Be proud. Of your accomplishments.

3. Take good care of yourself!!!!!
Men will forever be physical beings. First impressions will always count and your looks will give it a big boost.
Every woman has something beautiful about her, it could be her eyes, lips, skin, shape, legs, whatever God has blessed you with. look for yours and exploit it to the fullest with the right clothes, hair styles, and make up shades to compliment them.
WATCH YOUR WAIST LINE!

Pls note that these tips should be applied even after you are married. Else you'll have yourself to blame when he starts getting bored.
Cheers!

Eze Promoe: [color=olive]Excuse me, Sweetlemon. How often do you watch AFRICA MAGIC? The bolded is still weird. I thought he just invited you to spend the weekend with his family. How come your sisters, cousins etc, trooping in at a time and all his at a time. Do all of you live in one town? Just asking![/color]
He made me ‘forget’ my phone in his car one day. Been telling him about my family so he called my sister and cousin (because of the names stored in my phone) they got talking and planned the whole thing.
It was supposed to be a surprise.
they came in Sunday evening and spent only a couple of hours or so

Naaa, that will be "showing off". Not necessary. besides, I can always post any picture here remember?
Don't want nobody to call me a gold digger.

RomanceRe: He Invited Me To Spend A Weekend With His Family by Sweetlemon(op): 1:13pm On Jan 14, 2013
Ok. This is how it all went.
I arrived there Friday evening. Was welcomed by grandparents, parents, and siblings with smiling faces but questions dancing in their eyes.
Dinner was served and everyone from grandpa to the last born had questions for me. E remain small I for piss for pant. I answered the questions truthfully and to the best of my knowledge.
By Saturday, his sisters were complimenting my fashion sense and asking for tips!
Had a woman-woman talk with grandma and mama. They said they were relieved they could see that I loved their boy (thanks to those who advised me to show my feelings for him) then had some other private discussions.
Spent the rest of the evening on a couch with him till 2am then we went to our separate bedrooms. (whatever you guys are thinking we did, remove sex from ya minds! But I don’t know how much longer I will keep saying that o!)
Went with the family to church Sunday morning. Then grandma and mama asked me to prepare Afang soup to add to the dishes for the family reunion that evening. Then his cousins, aunties, and uncles started trooping in……….and so did my sister, brother and cousins! Before I knew what was happening, he held my hands and in the presence of all, with the most beautiful piece of jewelry I have ever seen, explained why he wanted to settle with me and asked if he could buy the bed from my dad. I could only nod my head, just regained my speech this morning.
Our parents should be negotiating on the price of the bed and when the bed can be bought soon.

kitty kat: Lemonade gurl, u really displayed some maturity but I am sure its as a result of the heavenly feeling grin ( just being naughty). U almost lost me as a fan but I am glad that all went well and u came and still showed d maturity that made bed guy pick interest in u.

If u want to give details do but if u don't shut-up cos I don't see te hating stopping. Also I wld like u to tell some singles ladies how to get and keep him without acting despearate( haterz goner hate but that's what u did) .

Remember ur 1st bed guy series, I predicted rightly, so where's my fees for consulting d oracle? Now send it sharpaerly to my e-banking before I pour some e-charms on u.
LMAO!
Yes o! He proposed yesterday. As in he asked me if he could come buy the bed from my father!

lalaosky: aint nobody ganging up on her...yeah i know some people became harsh with their advices after being too nice initially but that cos they are tired of saying the same advice over and over again.everybody has been screaming be yourself yet the issue keeps prolonging as if the thread was created to seek attention

@sweetlemon, we forgive you too.thanks for forgiving us.nobody is perfect...inivite me when he finally walks you down the aisle..i love wedding rice o.lol
Most people were harsh from the very beginning. And I'm sure you know that. Why don't you just give up trying to paint me black sir, or you just might end up painting yourself black instead.
Thanks

Tashamania: Whatever you say, but I just thought narrating your ordeal with your boyfriend or whatever you think or imagine he was on a public forum from start to finish doesn't just make sense. Shikena.
What have I narrated here? Am I the 1st or last girl to come and talk about her relationship here? Wait a minute, was it not Vivian Chinaza who came here last week or so to talk about how she fell in love with a friend of hers?
Even when I do come back to say what happened, I won't be giving personal details. I definitely won't be telling what his mum and I talked about or any other thing like that. Just the 'koko' of the story.
Thanks again and I wish you all the happiness every woman prays for

From the dept of my heart, I forgive everyone here who insulted or supported insults on me here. I also ask you guys to forgive me for loosing my temper.
From the dept of my heart I also wish everyone here (including those who insulted me) the same happiness I'm experiencing now.
May every lady reading this (including Idowuogbo, Freecocoa, itsmodella, Vivian Chinanza, Tashamania, e.t.c) experience the joy of knowing that a man loves you not for your body (esp if it's hot wink)but for what's inside of you. May you find a man that treats you like an equal even if he makes 1,000 times more money than you do.
And as for those who wished me well, (Eze promoe, Kitty Kat Amya, and the rest of you) God himself will take care your own blessings.
Amen!

AmBeautiful: Seriously before now some clean-up should have been done on this thread. Or better still this thread should have been removed. It only puts the OP in a bad spot and potrays something not too nice. Also I see no reason why seun and sexkillz should act a nollywood movie right here instead of elsewhere and still exposing the thread for the whole Wide World to see ! As far as I know the purpose of the rules and regulations posted by sexkillz recently this year has been defeated and should be ignored! That's what you have just potrayed right here in this thread! No offense intended!
Don't worry. The thread served it's original purpose WELL. Now that I'm back I don't regret it! Not one bit!
As for the thread putting me in a bad light, any reasonable person with a mind of his / her own looking through the thread will see clearly the deliberate attempt to paint me black here.
RomanceRe: He Invited Me To Spend A Weekend With His Family by Sweetlemon(op): 9:49am On Jan 11, 2013
Theben: With this statement, you've lost the respect I had for you. Like seriously, do people still make such threat? Ahn ahn, if you really don't need people to advise you, it would have been better not to open a thread on the ish.

So you expected everyone on this forum to congratulate your supposed introduction? Anyway, if you're tired of the comments, you may request the closure of this thread from the moderator. I believe, it will be granted.
I believe you did not go through the thread properly. I'm sure you would have seen why I lost my temper.
When you ask for advice and the person gives you something you don't like, is it a must to take it? How would you feel if they came back not twice, not thrice, not four times, but over and over and over again giving you the same "advice" while calling you all kinds of names under the sun just because you don't want to take their "advice"? Be sincere with yourself, how would you feel?
I'm only human I have a boiling point and I reached it hence the explosion.
Thank you very much

pwettytemmy: babe, d issue is not weather red signifies danger or black means evil, its just a game of chance. Colors and symbols aside, I will go for red. What if I pressed green and I didn't win dat chance since its aa 50% probability. One will spend d remaining part of his or her life lecturing his children, grandchildren about greed and how he would av bin a muliti millionaire. Remember this red also signifies love in some cases. #teamredalltheway
Like I explained earlier, this is not about mere colours. It's about buttons, lights, and signs. Those are buttons over there. Now remember, ANYTIME and EVERYTIME and on ANY equipment or appliance that has both green and red buttons, signs or lights, we all know what the red stands for. It means DANGER! KEEP OFF! Failure to comply could be fatal. While the green button, light, or sign means a go ahead.
Nairaland GeneralRe: Millionaire Works As A Street Cleaner To Set A Good Example For Her Kids by Sweetlemon(f): 9:26pm On Jan 10, 2013
I'm sorry but this does not impress me. You can be humble and rich at the same time.
There are a thousand and one ways she could work with that money AND grow more money. She could invest it. Could start any business of her choice and work to make the money grow. She could teach her kids responsibilty by training them on how to spend wisely and save. She could teach them how to do business in their schools.
She's wasting far too much valueable time cleaning the streets. She could use the time doing more valueable work that will bring her more money and at the end still teach her kids responsibilty.
Being poor or doing humble jobs does not make you honourable. It just means you ve not been able to exploit your potentials.
Nairaland GeneralRe: Which One You Will Press ? by Sweetlemon(f):
nikkyshyne: It amazes me how some of you are deciding based on some superstitious meaning to the word 'colour'. Maybe you shouldn't buy a red car, red dress, red lipstick, red pen, red anything just because you think it signifies Danger. undecided
That's not the case here!
We talking about buttons, lights and signs here. look at the picture carefully. Its's a button. A technical button. When you see both red and green buttons on an appliance or equipment, the red buttons, lights, and signs on ALL of them signifies SERIOUS DANGER Which you are meant to avoid worse than a plague!
Nairaland GeneralRe: Which One You Will Press ? by Sweetlemon(f): 8:27pm On Jan 10, 2013
cyntiathis: Many Nigerians don`t think deep these days, that is why you see things turning upside down. ofcourse in real life many will hit the red button with annoyance lol, ( make money anyhow even at the expense of their life). Have you asked yourself why the OP used RED and GREEN buttons instead of yellow and blue?
So true! People just see things on the surface without looking deeper. I almost chose red. But I looked more carefully and I remembered that RED signifies SERIOUS (and most times) fatal danger. It's possible to get the money but will you still be alive to enjoy it? Or maybe it could come with disability, or mental disorder. If $1m is worth more than your life or health, then feel free to press the red button
Nairaland GeneralRe: Which One You Will Press ? by Sweetlemon(f): 7:34pm On Jan 10, 2013
cyntiathis: Yes sure, u will get 1Milla with red but the question is, will you be alive to enjoy it. red buttons always signifies denger. Am going for Green jorr. If i wan eat frog make i eat the one way get body.
I must say I'm with you here. People don't look before they leap. Red stands for danger! SERIOUS danger. Meaning there's some kind of danger lurking beneath that red button. A type of danger that could make you regret ever hitting that button. A kind of danger that only a dare devil would be able to maneuver.
Green signifies a go ahead. It means you are safe.
So hitting the green button should be the wiser choice.

4real: Funny enough there is nothing wrong in having a buka kind of kitchen, it's an idea I have myself, because its a buka style does not mean it has to be dirty or that you employ foul mouth ladies, it can be a buka style with taste, all them big time restaurant are big men's buka, having said that a mobile food shop will also go places as well, target a few areas and see how well it goes have breakfast lunch and dinner and your good to go once you can make a success out of that you can franchise it as well
Thanks a lot!
