1  Forum / Relationships & Romance / Re: Why do Nigerians use the word Love so loosely on: 2-01-2011 05:47 AM
I have read some of the comments on here and I would have to disagree with some of things I have read. The one thing we all must agree on is that all cultures in this world are similar and different at the same time. With that being said, Not all Americans are loose with saying those words "I Love You". I am of American descent and I can honestly say that in my dealings with American men, that is simply not the case. In fact, I would think those words are the hardest 3 words an American man can say to a woman who is not their close family member, Plain and simple. Now have I dealt with a man who told me he loved me and I know he didn't mean it? YES I have! And I can attest that I shut that down right then and there. I think it is a broad generalization to say that all Nigerian men say I love you too easily, I may not have had many dealings with them but I would be hard press to say "all" Nigerian men are like that. Unless you have dated all Nigerian men, it is not something that you can say either.

I wonder if the women will wash their own clothes or expect the men to take it to the cleaners? My thing is, I used to feel the same way in the sense, that I will never take care of a man. But growing up, I watch my mother do it for my father and once I got into my own relationship I realized that I like taking care of my boyfriend, and if we were get married that attitude would not change either and I am well-educated and currently working on my master's degree. I don't care how educated a woman is or how well her job pays, traditionally speaking it is OUR DUTY to take care of the home. If you don't do it he won't, or he will find another woman who will gladly do it for him.

Unfortunately, it looks like she doesn't realize what she has. You seem like a nice guy from what you said. Maybe you should try to talk to her and remind her of how you care for her and how her ex treated her. If she still doesn't see what you are saying then maybe you should find someone who will appreciate you for you.

You should do whatever will make you happiest. On top of that the lord knows our past, present, and future. If he sees fit he will make it happen.

There is nothing wrong with wearing a mini skirt or dress or leggings. Clothes are clothes as long as she is doing to look good for herself and husband then fine. But it is for attention then something is wrong and must be fixed. If I would wear mini skirts and dresses all the time I would. I wear legging and tight pants all the time and my boyfriend doesn't care, unless he just hasn't told me.

I'm in a relationship for love and companionship. No one wants to be alone, and I hope to get married one day. The person I hope to marry is someone I consider my best friend.  The best way to get that and intimacy is through a relationship. The person I'm with is someone who I never thought I would ever meet. I find myself trying to be a better person for him and me. I even feel like he can be the one to spend my life with. But unfortunately he may not feel the same way. Which is ok, because I have learned a lot from him.
