lol!...you're right...cause most of their men are useless.

Akata women believe that Naija men treat them better and are more responsible then their own men. cheesy

Even the uneductaed ones know we are way different from their men but they are used to the life of their men. Hence, they choose to stick with them.

I'm sure you have heard this over and over during the days of hunting on dating sites "OMG, This is too true to be true".

A remember a friend telling akata when they went for a date " African men pays the bills at a date" the rest was funny but sad.

Yes, I agree.

The career oriented ones do have more patience and sense to deal with in terms of getting married to.

However, it looks like you and Lionlee216 were lucky to get the ones who were able to petition the green card for you without any stress.

A family member that I know has been married to his educated AA for almost 5 years and she has refused to petition the green card for him.

Without stress? Yes but with alot of sacrifice.. Remember the very first time she came to visit, When she was leaving, we went to the gas station together, gave me her card to put fuel in her car but instead used my cash to fill up($45). She was surprised. Me was like "no big deal". If you know how many times i got on greyhound bus to visit Chicago ehn, but it is well.

Your family member made a mistake and no one is above mistake. If I'm dating you and you hiding your DL, your debit/credit card, w2 etc then i know something is wrong. Trust is very important. I remember when i stylishly ask for her debit card to buy something from the store. The way "they" respond determines how you deal with them.. Even before we got married, the paperworks were already filled, post dated and signed. After marriage, got marriage certificate and sent paperworks...

We all learn.

Yea I have met AA women of various of levels and most had nothing good to say about nigerian men . I remember when Tamar Braxton got with her nigerian boyfriend , they’re we’re multiple comments bashing him because he was Nigerian and the reputation that nigerian men have .

Everything is digital nowadays, if cars can be gotten on Carvana, doctors on web videochats, why can't babies be met on dating sites? wink

Hmmm....Some of them still don't care and still will prefer to date and marry a Naija man over their own men...or may be in some cases a Hispanic or white men.

How will you rate the Ghanian Americans here.. ?There is this lady who is one of my pre med students ( I take recitations for a physics course). She calls me often and regards my advice so well. The first time she saw me, she knew I am a Nigerian. Today, I wasn't in class for the recitation, and she called me to know why and told me that she had to quit her mum's call, to call me...I haven't told her nothing yet because I am quite wary and still observing her...

Lol , be deceiving yourself. Just because you meet desperate women does not mean everyone is looking for nigerian man to marry or pursuing nigerian men. I don’t anyone who is looking to marry a nigerian man . It’s only nigerian men that are proclaim that women chase them. But from this thread , it’s look it’s the opposite , look like the men are pursuing women so that they can settle into the country.

please, you guys should not reply her, Thats how she ferments trouble on every travel threads, ignore her now she is starting before she increases the trouble and chase people providing valuable lessons and experiences from this thread, The next thing now she will say Mackynaija is lying and nothing he is saying is True... she say Nigerian men are not desired, agree with her that she is correct.

Why is it a problem when two consenting people get into a relationship?

It happens worldwide, what's special about it when it happens in the US?

Why is 'settling into the country' the sole reason you think people marry?
