Bollinger: I'm saying I agree with you to an extent, but not the nigerian mentality bit. It's just a 'losers' mentality. Not all nigerian men feel intimidated by a girl with a car. Sorry Can't type epistles... Tiny screen brb |

omotohdarajugbogbolo: [size=18pt]Yes my dear. It will scare away the man who thinks that it is a taboo for his wife/girlfriend to own a car and thus will not consider buying you a car when you marry him. So go ahead and buy your car. Infact buy your dream car as long as you can afford it and you are comfortable driving it. A car is a necessity in the 21st century. The worst that can happen is that you will easily scare away the chauvinistic bast.ard who will want to run your life tomorrow like a 17th century landowner. [/size] 3 Likes 1 Share |

You want good advice forget about attracting or not attracting men, do you need the car? is getting to work easy? the reason behind these questions is simple if you have some extra money go and buy land or talk to a bank and buy a property it is far better than buying a car, you r young u r strong and if getting to work is not a problem do something meaniful for your future, my mum brought her first land in her mid 20s now she is a grandma every weekend grand children cousins relatives all go to see becos she has money she has properties cars etc and she did not go school she has olden days standard one or whatever it was called then, the point I am making if you need it buy it if you dont then use yur money for something better 2 Likes 1 Share |

omotohdarajugbogbolo:the problem is not buying a car. The problem is who u become after buying the car. From my observation, women who are independent usually tend to undervalue men because they feel like "I can buy whatever I want for myself, I don't need you in my life" Now it's this egoistic attitude that drives away men, not necessarily the fact that you own a car. So the question is after buying the car, are you still going to be respectful of the man in ur life? P.S. I prefer a girl that won't be nagging me for recharge card money, new hair money.. Preferably one that can buy herself a car, so that our only worries would be next holiday destination 11 Likes 2 Shares |

Jimdonnet:She isn't ur aunty. So don't use ur aunty's misfortune 2 judge her case. Ur aunty's case isn't because she has a car, it is because she elevates herself above men's status. A woman with a humble spirit will marry no matter how many cars she possess. |

Get yourself a good car, remain humble and you will get a good husband. Car is not the cause of late marriages, there are many ladies without car and still without a man. All you need is humility and a sense that your hubby doesn't need to be better financially than you. 1 Like 1 Share |

I think its your choice after considering factors like family(which is important in Nigeria no matter their troubles), the class of car you are buying, how your attitude is and the way our country is as well in terms of employment. How many working class guys are single and are looking for working class lady in her late 20's with a nice ride? Some in this bracket will wonder why you are still single when you have everything, how many successful businessmen are single, the ones that are single, how many will have the time to chase after you(high class), when they are concentrated in their business. So u need a car that's fine, but it reduces ur options, and ur NT getting younger, dat reduces your option... Get a car if u really really need it den pray and have faith!.. Single G-boys are still available too.lolz |

It is not the buying of the car that can send men away, it her attitude after buying the car that can send men away. |

GoodSamaritan: Nonsense talk.. Did you hear the part where she has worked for 3 years without a car and still isn't married, and you think her getting a car is the problem? Nawa for this poor mentality everywhere oo.. Next thing, you'll tell her to resign from the multinational and go work in a nursery school so that she won't appear rich and chase men away! Any man that is chased away by all these tokunbo cars we drive in Nigeria is not a man. He is not worth being married to.. Shikena 5 Likes |

I have seen clean men who blatantly told me the would not marry ladies who are not financially stable and the first prerequisite is that the lady must own a car. If u doubt me, go 2 Abuja and see 4 yourself. 2 Likes |

Cutehector: You let down your standards to get a man who will cheat on you,feed off your salary and abuse you.. Any man who respects you will not be swayed by your success. I have seen men who look for women like you.. they are leeches and they will get you and suck you dry .. be Independent and Ambitious.. you will attract the few who Respect Women.. if you continue on this path.. you will only attract lazy ignorant, traditional, cheating, mommy's boys 1 Like 1 Share |

nkemdi89:It's the same mentality that stops many Naija ladies from renting an apartment or even owning a home. A lady, working in a multinational company and earning N300,000 to N500,000/month would be hesitant to move out of her parents place because of a man's 'ego' |
Re: No To Getting A Car Because Am Single by DavidEsq(m): 6:55pm On Dec 26, 2015 |
What I think? If buying a car would chase men away from you, then I think u should go ahead because the crop of men that would be chased away by such act or status are the ones with an incurable sense of low self esteem who think a man is a man only when his woman eats outta his hand. Is that the type of man u want? Simply saying: buying a car at your age and status would push such lily-livered men away from you and put u among the those who appreciate an achievement oriented woman. I know a certain tribe in Nigeria who form a large chunk of these low ass men and I bet that's where you are from. Go girl! |
