I've just got to reply to Bublin as most of your comments about Nigerians seem ill-informed.
Unless you originate from a particular race I don’t see how you can generalise with such authority. If you’re Nigerian speak up and let’s dissect this based on cultural experience and not hearsay or bad b/f experiences.
What happened to ellenicole has nothing to do with the guy being Nigerian. Again, I state, it's a way of life, it's a man thing. It happens all the time, not to put ellenicole down, I still maintain she got off lightly.
Bublin, as for those women who tell you whatever they say about Nigerian men, what you need to ask yourself is why are these men, Nigerian or otherwise, continue to get away with it. And are these women who tell you tales totally blameless themselves. It's simple. The signs are always there. No matter how much you trust, you never let your guard down 100%. Most women will let a man treat her like rubbish. And what's the justification for this - 'LOVE'. A man (opportunist) sees an opening and you expect him not to take advantage. Pleeeeeaaaaasssseee. He most certainly will, Nigerian or not.
There are so many women out there, who think they simply must be with a man no matter how badly he treats them and that’s one of the many reasons why men do this to us. They do the maths, realise there’s way more of us than there are of them and they take liberty’s.
Honey6928215, as for the African men green card thing, it's not just African's, it's anyone looking to legalise their immigration status. You don't have to be of African origin.
On a final note Bumblin, pls don’t generalise Nigerian men based on what you’ve been told or a single experience you’ve had. It’s down to the individual. Some men folk are good whilst others are just downright nasty.
I constantly tell my Nigerian female friends and I'm telling everyone who reads this - 'DON'T TAKE THE CRAP'. If a guy gets to realise that the likelihood of him finding someone is diminished severely if he keeps behaving like a pratt he'll be forced to change.
Again, I re-iterate, as women we need to stand our ground. This is not to say we become nasty but we let it known we’ll accept nothing but utter respect.
Let’s focus on the issue ellenicole raised. It’s about how she was treated by a man and not about Nigerian men.
I know this is long but Bublin’s comments struck a cord.
of women.
If you need to vent we are here!
Now, now, girls. Be nice.
! I had to note how the OP had to mention that he was Nigerian. We are all ambasaddors (sp) of our nations so we need to represent better. It does leave a lasting impression. I TRY to at least
