    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Exactly!
      I have to say, I passed through, at least, 40, of these signs before I got married.
      Might I add too, I think its all about the "timing" for guys.
      You might be dating a guy who isn't mentally ready to get married.
      He suddenly wakes up one day and thinks, "I need to get married, all my friends are a couple" and suddenly, his green light is on! Its all about timing.
      When I was about 21 - 24, it seemed like guys were all about playing- I had numerous "chykers" who thought they could get you on your back by being outlandish- luxury cars, expensive gifts, taking your friends and yourself out to the best places in town (as a ph babe, most of the chykers ended up bedding the so-called friends).
      In the midst of all this haze and fog that could cause a serious lack of judgement, there still were a few who were "responsible, smart, future-oriented, home-bodie and focused".
      I thought they were "too focused and over mature biko".
      At 25, it all changed. I realised my priorities did a complete turnaround, those players mysteriously either didn't come to me or when the came, I had an uncanny ability to first turn them into friends who eventually wanted to get serious- I was however in a serious relationship so I became more of a pal who they all seemed to be waiting for to break up so they could take over.
      Long and short, its all about the timing.

    1. I concur Nwanne. Why should two unmarried people shower together? Why should they spend the night together? The white man has seriously destroyed family values. It is religiously,morally and ethically wrong to do most of the things listed above as bf and gf. Linda,pls you are now a role model. Many of the chaps here are teenagers looking for guidance,so they may automatically adopt everything preached on this forum.

    1. Lmao! That's so funny.not all girls though,my bf knows my pin and I know his,we don't take advantage of each other.discipline and trust is important.this concept is for the white people,doesn't apply in Nigeria.I once had a bf I met his family friends,slept over @ his place,asin he was acting all committed and shit,but I knew he was a cheat and liar,I just have enough proof to put him away.my dear I was his side chick,I found out later he had a fiancee.thank God for my curiosity.I'm grateful, now! I have the most amazing boyfriend,never seen anyone like him,he's special.lmao! We even fart in front of each other.without the list,trust me you'd know if someone is truly committted to you.enough said!

  37. What r u pple saying? I have my soap and toothbrush in my man's house: he actually buys them when he feels they need to be replaced. All his friends added me on fb, we have holiday plans togeda, I've met all his siblings and mum,I have a key to his house which he gave me himself. I fart where he is and vice versa, I know what he earns and how he spends his money, he knows mine too. We talk about our future plans and how many kids we want to have and much more of the signs on the list.. And by God's grace I believe everything will work out just we want. So pls u guys shuldnt say its happening in Naija, it is just pray for a good man/woman who is willing to love and express love to you. That's all.

  49. Partners can xperience d 50 yet break up. My own rule:1. if a bf can engage a gf 4 like 5 months & observe part or all of d 50, hope dey. 2. If a bf can engage a gf 4 more dan a year 6 months & observe part or all of d 50, na witch craft(gf shine eye).3. If a gf in a case no. 1 travels @ random, no hope 4 bf, gf may hav plan b, (bf shine eye). 4. If d mom of either bf or gf influences d relationship, bf or gf should b a friend 2 such else, wahala go dey 1 day. Na 9ja rule no b jand!

  90. All true but I don't agree with staying over night to know tht u are in a committed relationship. All these don't apply to a typical NIGERIAN MAN. Our Men aren't quarter of tht Romantic and besides all these are done in YANKEE; the FOREIGNERS, not an African man let alone a Nigerian Man. The Westerners do all these a lot and I guess tht is what make most of US (African/Naija) LADIES fantasize about such thereby wasting time. Kama lo pe lo ja. Babe! So true... Here in NAIJA this is a fairy tale relationship and fantasy. Even our Naija men born and bred overseas won't do all these whn they come home to we Ladies here. Mayb there. Aunty Linda...abegm this is d least u could do after u didn't reply my emails.

  99. Well that 50 signs isn't exactly for us, perhaps not all. Here in niaja, you just need one sign; which is "$" sign.

  100. That is why naija will never move foward.....its just a pity!I'm loving this list abeg but why is facebook an important factor?

  121. A list of 50 things and praying together is not on the list. I don't know how researchers came up with this list. I guess the 2000 people are ........ If two people cannot kneel down and crystallize their desires and goals before God, then there is something wrong. I believe that praying together should be the first thing on the list. Seek God first and all else will be given unto you. Prayer is the key

  125. This list is only a guide.. Obviously not all applies. But its a way to know tho especially for ladies. The ultimate is when he proposes... You can be in a committed relationship n the guy doesn't want to get married. Some Nigerians are adopting the Hispanics style which is staying together, doing everything that involves marriage but not willing to walk down the aisle... So ladies, its a guide but still be on the lookout especially if you want to be Mrs someday....

    ReplyDelete
  126. I stongly agree, married couple can tell u d experinced a lot on dis list. Even in Nigeria if u r in a serious relationship where the luv is mutual u will experience a lot on dt list.
