She was Asked;"How do Nigerian men differ to UK men?
She responded;"I feel the difference is because in all honesty I've made friends with some like Guinea-Bissau guys, I've made friends with them like two days or three days ago. And then I've also made friends, I made friends with a Moroccan guy, and I feel like those types of men wouldn't necessarily have approached me in Nigeria.
I don't know if it's a confidence thing or if it's a... well then again Nigeria is quite classist. So if a man feels that he's not necessarily on a level that he can speak to you,he probably even speak to you at all. But over here, it doesn't even matter like.. you can be an Uber driver, I don't know you can be working at McDonald's or something and the guy would still come up and talk to you even though you can see that you're.... you know carrying a Gucci bag or Whatever.
But over in Nigeria, if a guy does that he's like a nuisance, while over here it's more like oh okay, he's got some confidence. Like I feel like, seeing men here is a little bit like like... you actually get to know who these men are. And while in Nigeria, most times it kinda seems like what you know about them is what they have to offer or what they show, like how much money they have,how successful they are,what car they drive. You get what I mean, while out here all those things don't matter. It's more about the conversation, it's more about the connection, It's more about the energy that they give the first time."

See this mumu babe. If a guy that works in Sweet sensation approach you, will she give him audience? Who is she deceiving?
ReplyDeletePlease read again. She meant Nigeria its all about how big your pocket is while in UK its about who you are. I think she is right.
DeleteHmmmnnn, it’s true but complicated; in the West, the difference between people’s incomes is not very high unlike in Nigeria. In the same company in the West, a Manager might be making 65k a year and a cleaner will be making 38k, meanwhile in Nigeria, a Manager might be making 500k and a cleaner, 25k so the difference is HUGE. That being said, it was only after I moved to the West that I became what I earned. The first question a guy will ask you after what is your name is “what do you do for work” your answer will determine if the conversation continues or not. You are only as important as your income…
Delete@anon 13:28- comprehension with tears
DeleteWetin she mean be say Nigerian men know their level. Them no dey do pass their self to follow woman wey them no fit afford
DeleteRead & comprehend pls. U just rushed to comment without understanding, probably bcoz u don’t like her.
DeleteIs that why your nails look like that, how do you even clean your yansh?
ReplyDeleteIs she trying to say that UK guys have confidence than Nigerian guys?
ReplyDeleteShe is saying thar if she transplants Nigerian dating values to the UK she will remain single for a darn long time. People worship materialistic values in Nigeria.
Delete@Kelahini, not really, she is trying to say that in the UK, you are an individual first, and what you have or do not have materially, does not define who you are! I think it is a cultural thing.
ReplyDeleteShe is absolutely right about this. The only reason for this is as a result of how Nigerian women have already rate their men and see them finish.

Hello iya Boys

ReplyDeletein Nigeria, relationship is transactional...in the west, it is not...
ReplyDeleteHmmm
DeleteLol, Western relationships are more transactional than Nigerian relationships. Good luck finding true love in the West, lol!!!
DeleteWestern relationship are not transactional at all ,it is the connection and love that matters. Doctors do date security or cleaners.
DeleteNigerians lives are centered around money bc poverty too much.
