[b]This is a little bigger than me [/b]because it seems she doesn't see anything wrong with her, she prides in the fact that she is matured for her age but now it's ruining her love life.

What can we do to help her?

best advice is to leave and accept her the way she is....cause if she forces herself to change she might not continue to be that loveable girl that you have been talking about. give her time, she will eventually meet someone that she loves and when she sees other babes competing with her she would try to upgrade....

The only problem I see here is her bad posture. Everything else is not a problem in my opinion.

Hello dear! The reality is that any man who is trying to change who you are to please him is not your man. Don't waste your time with someone who is tolerating you, look for a person who will celebrate you. Somebody is out there looking for exactly that outlook, that walking steps, that mode of dressing, that type of utterances. Such men who want to change who you are are only managing you, when the better option comes, he will abandoned you; I don't like the way you dress, then you change your dresses, I don't like the way you walk, then you change your walk, I don't like the way you laugh or talk, then you change the way you laugh and talk. Honey! A man who doesn't like all these things about you; where then is the love? Once against ! Go where you are celebrated not where you are tolerated.

Pls note the use of the pronoun "you"; I'm directly addressing the girl in question. Convey it to her.

Please I need working and realistic advice on how to help this young lady.

She happens to be a relative that confides in me for advises in her general life. She is in ND II at a federal polytechnic. A very respectful full and big hearted girl.

Just yesterday night, she put a call through to me, crying that her boyfriend has not been treating her well. So I decided to talk to the guy directly (we all know the guy at home). The guy told me how much he loved my cousin but he complained that she doesn't behave like a young lady, he said she behaves like a woman, and that he has tried in so many ways to change her but he couldn't.

To be honest, I couldn't argue with this guy because I know very much that he is saying the truth. My cousin does not act like all these trendy girls at all, yes she is beautiful but she dresses like an old woman, talks as if she has been born since 1960. I think because she grew up with our grandma might be the cause but it's getting very weird. She is also very religious unlike the rest of us. She would tie wrapper, even her walking position would suggest a very very old person.

The poor boy mentioned many other weird intimate things that I can't mention here. I just told him not to worry, that we'll do something about it.

This is a little bigger than me because it seems she doesn't see anything wrong with her, she prides in the fact that she is matured for her age but now it's ruining her love life.



She needs someone that will truly love her first,then gradually speak to her.Encourage her to read books and watch movies on various etiquette dressing,speeches,eating,take to function etc.I strongly believe it has to do with environmental (association) factor.She needs a new orientation and integration but it's not going to be magic.I am sure she will change.A behavioural change expert will do d needful.

you will be making the greatest mistake of her life if you change her.

what happens when the so called boyfriend dumps her who will be there to accept her?

if the so called boyfriend will not accept her the way she is then he was not meant for her

he is trying to change her to suit his own selfish gains.

Her husband will accept her the way she is
I don't usually comment on this section, but this topic bothers me.

Let me tell you the hard truth.
Women like this often get married late, or get very fewer choices which could lead to ending up with a substandard fellow.
I have sampled many cases before coming to this conclusion.

Even those brothers in her church prefer women with a modernistic dress sense.

Dressing good doesn't mean wearing rubbish like these wayward girls.

If I were the guy, as a realistic person that I'm, I'd leave her to herself.
I have no time trying to change people.

Women like this are baggage of trouble in future.

Marry her, and she looks like a 50 year old in 10 years.

Abeg joor.

Some girls have strong character which they stick to and afraid to embrace a change, is she that kind of person?

Introduce her to watching documentaries where young women interact and the kind of clothes they wear to keep their man salivating 247.

You could download some British shows on youtube "take me out". It will be quite a challenge as these things are new to her.

Am glad you can relate to this. It's because of the love that the guy is still giving room for growth. I know if he wanted to dump my cousin, he would have done it. I just hope she can change o. Because the two of them are very precious to me.


Wisdom builds her home and understanding establishes it.
When they tend to understand each other they will enjoy their home.

I sincerely know how the guy z feeling because I have similar issues but I will advise him not to allow his feelings to becloud his minds

I guess your sister will be very good in doing the house chores just like mine, and her love language z likely to be quality time, all this sums up to the fact that the guy z not enjoying the conversation because what she says are either too spiritual or not emotional enough so he finds it boring

I will just say your sister z a special breed. Just try speaking to her to adjust little in what her man complains, she should a little bit change too, give room 4 improvement. You will notice that she will start claiming territorial weakness, she will see her self as been OK, don't argue or shout at her because it will cause her to return into her shell because she has been offended.

Teach her the word 'compromise' to compromise doesn't say you are weak, you are just letting something go or drop something for the happiness of your partner, he would do the same one day.

When ever I shout at my gf because of an attitude I don't like, she retreats n prefer to relate her issues with another person.

I believe they can make it work if one of them z ready to PAY THE PRICE ------COMPROMISE

DONT MIND ME AM SPEAKING FROM WHAT AM PASSING THROUGH

So we should leave her that way. What if the same thing happens with next guy she meets.

Is there anything wrong in making her spice up herself. That's not total change.

how are you sure it will happen to the next guy she meets?

if I may ask, what are the qualities of a responsible man?

Bro, am a very realistic person and I don't think the level of hypocrisy we have been living with in Nigeria has helped us in anyway.

Are you trying to tell me you don't mind if your woman has same hair for more than month? Wears oversized cloths? Keeps older women as friends? How many more do you want me to mention. So you don't mind if people refer to your woman as your elder sister or even your mother?

And on top of those things, she still doesn't see anything wrong even after complaining.

You are a man now, let's be sincere. I don't blame the guy at all, he's only been sincere. Who no like better thing? Not that she should walk naked now.

From a core understanding of such a wonderful (but "untwitch" ) girl, let me say that I doubt if that guy is the right man for her. That guy would do well with trendy girls than this your cousin. But, if a loving godly man gets to meet that lady, she'd be changed forever. Not in a bad way, nor in a promiscuous way, but a godly romantic (I hope you all have expunged your understanding of spiritual people, they have some of the greatest potentials of love since they've got self-control).
She doesn't need a boyfriend but a fiancé.

Of course he is trying to build on her uniqueness. The guy is not asking for too much now. He is just asking for her to look good.

Based on your story, I would like to ask, what eventually made your wife to be envied?
Has that so-called boyfriend of hers ever taken her out to shop for decent clothes and to fix her hair and she refused? The guy should do the right thing instead of whinning like a kid. The solution is simple - take her out for shopping and fix her hair regularly.

There is nothing wrong with her. She is a more matured, and reserved person. It's simply a compatibility issue. She needs to date an older guy who will understand and appreciate her and not young boys who are still into trendy clothes etc etc. People are different for a reason otherwise we would all be the same. If he can't handle her personality and Character then he should find someone who he can be more compatible with.

Some people are just old at heart and that is just the way they are. I have a work colleague who is just like that. Very mature, motherly and is not really into the "youth things". She is dating an older guy and he loves those things about her. So it's all about finding the one that appreciates you for you.

If she was more materialistic, clubby, trendy etc i am sure the same person would be complainig that she is too out there. Smh

It Boils Down to the way she was Brought up.
I would Advice her been a young lady to try and Balance it up.
Life is evolving and she has to keep up with the trends but not every trend though, the trends that appeal to her personality.
I had this same issues too growing up but I learnt Life is a beautiful gift that should be held with all seriousness and been uptight.
It is to be Enjoyed and there also has to be a Balance.
Wish her the best.
