A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by Queenisha: 12:30am On Aug 25, 2008 |
I remember back in Naija,on several ocassions,at least I remember 3 vividly[b] while I was with a date[/b],I would have drinks (Maltina) or some plates of orishirishi brought by the waiter and it would have been bought and paid for by another male in the restaurant with no strings attached. Did anyone here have similar experiences ? |

Ha ha!!! Queen!!! I bet you both enjoyed eating that meal. So who supplied the drink? |

nana: It was actually my isiewu joke on another thread that sparked this memory. I was with my now husband then date at an isiewu joint and this man bought me a plate and a bottle of Maltina and my man thought nothing of it. |

I'll like to know if any girls in Nigeria had similar things happen onyinye2: It's different if you were just with a bunch of girls.Nigerian men do that a lot and I appreciate it . Were you with a date? |

That's enough of a test to tell you that your man is normal osisi and not capable of hacking you into suya pieces out of jealousy/possessiveness Good thing you married him |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by SeanT21(f): 12:44am On Aug 25, 2008 |
Queenisha: Yes. Why else will a stranger buy you food. He is trying to send you a message that he finds you attractive and want to get to know you. did his number come with the chicken? |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by onyinye2(f): 12:45am On Aug 25, 2008 |
Queenisha:Yeah i was on a date. I openly accepted the suya. Because it is expensive so i just chopped it up and licked the stick. j/k j/k |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by Queenisha: 12:45am On Aug 25, 2008 |
KarmaMod: Biko may God hear your plea. suya pieces shall not be my portion in this land of soddom and Gomorrah |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by KarmaMod(f): 12:46am On Aug 25, 2008 |
onyinye2: Your date didnt say anything? |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by onyinye2(f): 12:48am On Aug 25, 2008 |
KarmaMod:Of course he said something. He said "My brotha, i meela." and me and him ate that suya up. |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by KarmaMod(f): 12:49am On Aug 25, 2008 |
i meela? |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by Queenisha: 12:49am On Aug 25, 2008 |
SeanT21: No this was in the nineties, before cell phones and the man left without saying a word . onyinye2: I need a man to respond since this act was not unique to me. Was the suya just to say hello or did it mean something else |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by Queenisha: 12:50am On Aug 25, 2008 |
KarmaMod: thank you |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by SeanT21(f): 12:51am On Aug 25, 2008 |
onyinye2: Your boyfriend is different. My man will go straigh ghetto. when we were in high school, He was always mad when I talk with guys even if we were friends. He has not gotten used to it eventhough I have many Guy friends. When they call me, He wants me to talk with them in his presence. Much Ado about Nothing. |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by onyinye2(f): 12:52am On Aug 25, 2008 |
KarmaMod:Oh LMAO it means "thank you" in igbo. Queenisha:i guess it was a kind gesture. He was eyeing me throughout the game but i really didn't pay him no mind. |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by Queenisha: 12:52am On Aug 25, 2008 |
sean,if you say,the man had an ulterior motive,why would he send food to a girl who's obviously on a date with another man? |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by SeanT21(f): 12:53am On Aug 25, 2008 |
Queenisha: Poor Guy. He could have easily slipped the phone number under the chicken platter or leave it with the waitress. |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by onyinye2(f): 12:54am On Aug 25, 2008 |
SeanT21:Naw this guy knew that suya cost ALOT. and to turn it down is pure stupidity. But he was nice enough to buy me, the guy, and himself a drink. So i guess he was cool with it. |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by Queenisha: 12:54am On Aug 25, 2008 |
onyinye2: I was too engrossed in my isiewu to notice his eyes. Besides the joint had very dim lights so all I saw was his head LOL I couldn't even pick the dude out in a line up |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by SeanT21(f): 12:56am On Aug 25, 2008 |
Queenisha: I guess he was DARK AS CHARCOAL!! |

SeanT21: Dont read Nursing. |
Re: A Stranger Buys You Food While You're Out On A Date With Another Man by Queenisha: 12:57am On Aug 25, 2008 |
