You can't go out with me for two weeks and know we'll get married
You decide AFTER, not before the relationship starts

What happened to taking one step at a time?

It's not a matter of knowing we'll get married/ throwing marriage at every single discussion, let's not confuse ourselves, the future's not certain, it's about having an idea of what you want in a man and anyone that does not have majority of what I want is a goner to me, no two ways about that.

Hannibal:

Find your church mind ASAP or should we go to Nandos to seal the deal??

Where's Nando's?

I see a girl, she looks nice, she's clean, she doesn't yibon every 5 syllables, no obvious deformities, yea i want to go out with her, and by the second date i realize she's a black blonde, imma lose interest, why? cos i can't spend d rest of my life with a slowpoke. Point is, if mind is made up that we can't have a possible future , no point wasting my time and yours. Doesn't mean i'm thinking of putting a ring on her finger as soon as i see her.

there's quite a diference between going on a date/dates and being in a relationship.

Exactly, know what you want, even if it's just a placeholder . . .
It's only our african women that feel every dude that takes 'em to Mr Biggs three times is Mr Right
I've never seen a country so marriage obsessed . . . my daizzz

I thought relationships always start with 'Let's see where we can go with this' before 'Let's take it to the next level'


oka watever eldee. we are not marriage obsessed. we just don't want to waste our time with some fool who can barely tell the difference from left to right. so just because a lady might think ahead where the relationship might go as in marriage doesn't mean she is obsessed with it.

Question - Why The General Believe That Relationship Should Last Forever?

The Answer you seek my friend, can be found in the pages. . . last pages of these books.

1) Cinderella
2) Sleeping Beauty
3) Rapunzel
4) Beauty and The Beast
5) Snow White
6) The Enchanted Maiden

. . . . . All end with *say it with me* "And they lived happily ever after"

Our Generation is already a lost cause but we can save the future generation from this archaic mentality by BANNING ALL FAIRY TALES WITH THE HAPPILY EVER AFTER endings.

At Bed Time with your kids, substitute

Cinderella with Child Possessed.

Sleeping Beauty with The beast Within - Why Men are Violent.

Rapunzel with Homicide: A Sourcebook of Social Research

Beauty and The Beast with Till Death Do Us Part: Love, Marriage, and the Mind of the Killer Spouse

Snow White with Heart Full of Lies A True Story of Desire and Death

Sure they will be scared to bits, sure they'll have nightmares, will probably never marry and if they do, they'll get their gun license the same day they get their marriage licence, kiss their husbands goodnight and immediately cock their guns but I ask you. . . isn't that better than having their heads filled with bed of roses and believing crap about One True love and Happy Ever after? I dare say it is.

In Nigeria, once u go on a date with a chic, she has seen herself as your girlfriend. No frills, no thrills.
The only way she won't be down for this is if u don't drive a car or there is no loose cash.

Eldee while i agree with some points, you cant exactly blame just the women

Fine not every relationship is gonna end in mariage. Obviously but dont give the girl false HOPE.

You cant deny there are some guys that few days into the relationship they are going around screaming "Iyawo mi" blah blah, if you;re gonna be saying such rubbish so early why be surprised if she too goes around claiming husband after 2 dates?

Also I dont think any guy who doesnt believe the current relationshop is solide/worth it should be asking for the girl to be exclusive with them.

Of course you have to keep in mind that no matter what country you;re in , you're still Nigerians. These girls are Nigerians. Most with Naija parents. Naija mentality. No parent wnats to hear their daughter say "oh im just seeing some dude", they want to hear that it's serious, it's concrete, it's going somewhere

I really depise the fact that because some people have been smuggled aboard they fail to realize what we still have traditions that follow us. It's like you dont even try to put any effort into understanding what these girls have to go thru and why they think the way they do. blah blah the girls in blah blah do blah blah. Who gives a shit? If you have a problem with how they deal with certain situation, talk to them about it insread of just having outright disdain for them on the onset cos of how they were raised

@topic
Exactly my sentiments
If you go into every relationship with the aim of getting married, what happens when you see that u're not made for each other?
This we must marry mentality is the reason why people commit suicides after break-ups

Abso-freaking-lutely!!

And if they don't take the easy way out by commiting suicide, they will talk your ears out, blubbering all over the place about how they'll never love again, how he/she was the one. . . the fact that he/she just got dumped by the one does not register about him/her not being. . . you know the one. And just when you are almost "There, There"-ed out, they meet someone else and the whole freaking process starts all over again.

Jeebus! Shoot me!

How can a one date mean ENGAGEMENT??


Hmnn . . . I agree with totally with the second half of your post
But come to think of it, if we're to fully follow these traditions you upholding, unmarried couples need to be with an 'Alarina'
Yes or No?
The world is advancing, we have to drop some traditions

What the hell is Alarina?

If you as the guy expect the girl to be exclusive to you from day 1, done be surprised if she thinks it's gonna take it to the future.

In other words, both sexes shouldnt be expecting anything until you know it's what you both wnat

as for dropping traditions, tell that to the families of these people.
