What keeps a man? Ali Baba shares his opinion

Someone posted this on their IG page, ace Comedian shared it on his own page and shared his own opinion on the matter. He wrote;
Much as I agree, because examples abound, many men have left very good women. But a man who wants to be kept, has to see what will keep him. Don't be fooled from what you see outside. There are usually reasons that make people walk away from what may seem to everyone as the best relationships. I know a lady who left a guy who had everything and was buff plus handsome. He however had vowed he would not have kids. The lady had to leave. Bottom line... There is more to what makes a relationship end than we may assume."
I believe you can't take a man who doesn't want to be taken. You can have sex with him, you can even be a part of his life, but you can't take him from who he really wants to be with. Thoughts?

Believe me this is what has been my tot since the Toke issue. Reflected on alotta relationship in which the wan is pretty, godly buh nah the straying dogs still stray. I concluded with "it's better for a woman to keep herself happy "

Unknown said...

I totally agree with him..

Everyone with his own opinion anyway, so I don't expect you to digest all he says or anyone says.. so many things keep a man! And this is put in a short word "FACTORS". 2thess 5:17-32

YES HE IS RIGHT, NOTHING CAN KEEP A MAN, GOOD SEX, PRETTY FACE OR WHAT EVER CANT KEEP A MAN, HE STAYS IF HE WANTS SO WOMEN DONT THINK BEING BEAUTIFUL OR GIVING HIM GOOD SEX CAN KEEP HIM, IT COMES NATURALLY FROM HIS HEART

Being pretty doesn't keep a man. Hell, being a good woman barely keeps a man. The only thing that keeps a man, is a man who want to be kept... #word!

So much love all what I just read. And dats true..the only thing that keeps a man its man who wants to be kept.

And I also believe self sincerity is paramount in a relationship... if u are sincere with yourself I will be when it comes to settling down. for example, "can I marry this man that smokes or drink?" can I put up with the smoking and drinking? Can marry this lady that can cook but not good with sex et al.... if no, desist from such relationship don't deceive the person into a union u know won't work.

Truth. If d man/woman dsnt want to to be taken, U dnt stand a chance. Friends with benefits is d most U'll get.

BONARIO NNAGS said...

I don't get having sex with a man and being part of,his life is enough damage already.
Is it till he packs out of his house, then you have taken him.
To each his own, there is no arithmetic formulae to it, love is sacrifice, true love outweighs every sentiment.
The more we dwell on cultivating love instead of trying too hard to appear artificially pleasing to the other, the better for us.

So damn true. Dont be fooled by wat u see outside. Some relationships look good on camera (in public) bt behind close doors its hell.

The bitter sweet truth...

Unknown said...

Well, it all boils down to what a man wants... Unless I decides to give my all to a woman, I cannot be taken. My GF is gorgeous, educated, from a wealthy home and she has got a good job.. She wants us to get married already, she's 27 and apparently wanna get married before her 28th birthday. She can't hold me to ransom with marriage, ve got issues to settle before taking a wife and babe don't wanna see reasons with me. Bottom line is that she threatens to call it a day if we don't marry this xmas. But I don't care.. Told her "I will find another you in a minute".

Ali Baba on it again.

Unknown said...

Couldn't agree less. People judge by what they see. Little wonder it's said that he who wears the shoe knows where it hurts. A man/woman chooses to stay or to fly based on circumstances

kinda ryt ! fine bobo

ary said...

Truth is a man is like a wild stallion which has to be broken/tamed to be domesticated but like Ali baba said we can't be from outside looking in and decide that a relationship is this way or that! Look at a woman like Amber Rose, rich, beautiful and with a great body but yet she couldn't make men like Kanye and Wiz stay, guess there wasn't enough to keep them with her. The same thing goes for the opposite sex, must women go into relationships with certain things in mind, if a said man doesn't fulfill that, they move. It is that simple.

DaVinci said...

I'm forced to comment on this. There's perhaps no greater truth than this. When we all know some basic truths about relationships, life can be pretty much easier for us all.

Anonymous said...

Somewhat true. On the other hand, a man that doesn't want to have kids with a long time partner may suddenly want kids with a new partner. This buttresses what Ali Baba said. He saw something that made him change. Look at George Clooney who never wanted to get married before Amal.

True, relationships vary and people are diverse. When they say 'keep' is it to just keep him in the relationship/marriage or keep him faithful ? Which is the bigger problem ?

Unknown said...

Yes oooooooooooooooooo

That's d truth, I agree with him
U can't keep a man cos ur pretty, even ur homily nature αи∂ delicious meals can't keep his ass down....
A man will always do what he wants to do, just pray u get a responsible man/woman... Someone that doesn't reason like an unrefined element, sm1 that doesn't reason in a myopic way.....such men exist , buh it takes time to meet them

Same way u can't keep a woman who doesn't want to be kept. Some women still control their lives u know though some claim it's a man's world but some women claim it's their world too ask queen Latifah...

Plain truth

Unknown said...

He's 100% on point. There are reasons why men walk away from seemingly perfect rships. However, most men don't complain, they'd rather find various means to get over the woman in question, which mostly includes getting another woman. Now the jilted embittered woman seeing that the man has found another intimate partner, goes about castigating the man, fooling the general public, drawing attention and sympathy but knowing deep down that she's the architect of her woes. Men don't lament.

You told her you will replace her in a minute? Lol! Please stop lying to us to stroke your ego. If you don't want to do the needful, let go of her. With all her attributes she will replace you in 2 seconds . Mtcheew! You think it's easy to find a good woman right ? Especially one who's gorgeous with all those attributes mentioned above .....You are on a long thing! I hope someone snatches her so she can dump your sorry ass!

That is if she hasn't found another you and isn't planning a wedding already. Idiot. You 9ja men think you are all that. Y'all are nothing but shit. Fucked up, egocentric, no good bunch of nothingness. Its not you people's fault, society is the one placing rubbish expectations on us. But guess what? More women are chasing their happiness now. Good thing too. We don't need you. Pschew!
