I can bet you that 99% of Nigerian boyfriends have never taken their girlfriends on romantic vacations overseas.
The best they have done is taking their sweethearts to Silverbird Galleria on Victoria Island or The Palms in Lekki.
Only few of them have pampered their babes at the Whispering Palms Resort located in Badagry, Obudu Ranch in Cross River, La Manga Beach Resort on the island of Ilashe in Lagos, La Campagne Tropicana Beach Resort along Lekki/Epe Expressway, Eko Tourist Resort and others in Nigeria.

If I say that any guy that cannot afford even taking his babe to the romantic vacation resorts in Nigeria is not worth dating, the "Jew" guys will get nasty with their attack comments instead of admitting their shortcomings and failures in romance.

Dating a babe is more than going to Mr. Biggs or taking her to night clubs and viewing centers.

Let me just tell the babes to start considering guys based on how they can really pamper you at home and abroad.
Not mere lip service and eye service.

To me it is pathetic for lovers and couples not to go on vacations overseas before and after marriage. And majority of Nigerian lovers and spouses have never gone on such vacations, because THEY ARE NOT ROMANTIC!

The definition of romance to majority of Nigerian guys is having an active sexual life with their lovers and wives. Which is the primitive native definition of romance. Even the animals in the jungle have more romantic lives than majority of Nigerian lovers and couples.

I know couples I have never even seen having a romantic stroll or walk.
The best romantic thing they have done is chasing each other around the sofas and bed in the house.
Sincerely, I feel sorry for many of these couples and their boring lives.

A romantic vacation overseas is a must at least once a year and twice a year for local vacation resorts.
Please, have a break and have a fun trip with your sweetheart and stop whining on Nairaland.
Romance is the spice of life.
Enjoy it as much as you can have it!

You just said it yourself, Boyfriend and Girlfriend, now having a vacation abroad isnt a child's play because before going on such trip it should be well planned. what and what is the girl in question putting on the table for such vacation to occur? Is she worth it? is she a wife-able person? if these questions are not answerable then my guy no waste your cash.
I, my wife and my kid just came back from the UK on a 3weeks vacation and believe me it wasnt just my own money on the table, she assisted in doing some. This christmas we hope to visit dubai and believe me we are already saving towards it.
You dont just waste stupid cash on someone you arent going to spend the rest of your life with. Some girls just deserve MrBiggs or tantalizers or better still beer joint( Am sorry to say)

Romantic trips will boost your love life.

Chairman!.. haba.. maka why! when you are in boy-friend and girl-friend mode.. it is f00l-hardy to engage such expensive ventures when you are not planning on getting hitched

The way you treat her before marriage is enough to show her what to expect later.

Op all fingers are not equal. Love can be expressed in different ways. If what you can afford is Mr Biggs, then do so; if you've got the means to fly her abroad every summer, then do so with all pleasure. The most important thing is to make her happy

So "romantic" trips must embarked on abroad before one knows who is romantic or not?

Statements like this reinforce the materialistic mindset we see nowadays


Getaways in a relationship are encouraged it does not have to be a foreign trip

Example 1: Emeka (fictional name) Loved Ebere (real name), loved her so much he bought her a Golf 2 when he did not have a car, paid a ticket to Italy for her vacation while in his final year when he needed all the money he could lay his hands on. Ebere met Jude in Italy, came back to Lagos and got married after graduation. Lessons learned, never spend money on a girl that you cannot recover in cash or kind.

She doesn't have to be a wifey material to be taken on romantic holidays. The requirement is that she is committed to you. No side shags or sugar daddies.

My alhaji, minister and senators takes me all the time.on holiday. That's not a big deal. Most time I go on holidays with my home girls. Holiday ain't big deal to me. Even right now, am on holiday with one of him.

OP said in Nigeria or overseas.
So, there are several places in Naija for romantic trips.
The attached picture is from a cozy place in Lagos and it is not even a five star hotel.
You can have one at a guest house in Oshodi and then take romantic walks at the nearby Oshodi park.

Some new bus stops in Lagos are not even bad for those whining here.

With less than N100, 000 you can have a good weekend at this resort in Lagos.

Is that a jacuzzi.. this is a p1mp-ride down the river.. N100k is that for a week or a night.
