sexkillz: Loretta, you dey see am so? grin

Your fellow girls prefer food: pastries e.g meatpie, isiewu, fried rice, chicken, peppersoup, nkwobi and ice cream, than flowers. grin

Oh and money. wink

I think you guys are miss understanding the OP. Let me decode it for you guys, before your girl give you dirty slap or leave you go follow Dayo becos you start buying her flowers instead of "things"..

She is simply saying that guys should remember that 9ja girls are not only material and that they also have romantic side as well.

So each time you guys provide meatpie, isiewu, fried rice, chicken, peppersoup, nkwobi and ice cream, money, recharge card, etc you should also include a bouquet of flowers to go...this way they will not pass as materialistic and gold diggers but also as loving and romantic.

In summary, she is not saying you should decrease your budget towards your girl but that, you should increase that budget to include flowers once in a while...as long as the increase that accounts for the occassional flowers does not affect future increases toward "things".

I am waiting for the year or era that Nigerian ladies/ girls will appreciate flower with all their heart the way they appreciated blackberry. I hope to be alive then.

I remembered way back at Uni my friend bought a flower and a wrist watch for his girl friend on her birthday.the guy presented the flower to the girl first. the girl thinking that that was all he bought for her playfully flog the flower on the guy with a question of "wetin be this. abeg drop this oyibo level oo and give me better thing."

she acted as if it was a joke and was full of smile that day but we knew better. flower? Op I guess you have been reading too much mills and boons and oyibo movie. Time never reach wey Nigerian girls go appreciate flower

Nigerian girls and flowers are two different entity. They will rather collect the money for the flower from you.

sexkillz: Why will I buy an expensive bouquet that'll end in the trash? undecided

I'll rather buy fried rice with chicken and ice cream, then buy "Richad cad" with the remaining change. . . grin

Re: Nigerian Men Don't Give Flowers To Us: Why? by Nobody: 12:24pm On Dec 05, 2013
Well you're right
Except for the budget increase thing
They can substitute one or two things for the flowers
E.g if he used to take her on 3 dinner dates a month,he can substitute one for a lovely bouquet of flowers
Or if he wanted to take her shopping for 3 pairs of dresses, he can substitute one dress for flowers. That's if the babe like flowers o
I'm just speaking for myself here. That's what I'd like

sexkillz: Since when did Nigerian girls start accepting flowers? undecided


Left with bobos, we go buy flower tire, because it's cheap and romantic. grin

But then I've seen girls ask "flower for what? Am I a goat?"

Abeg, you people should stop being so discombobulated. . . I'm not generalizing like you did, though.

Baba!! Flower no cheap o!!

I gave my babe (then) flowers and thats when I realized that the useless bouquet that was delivered to me cost 14'k. If I wanted a Bouquet of just a mix of white and red roses then na fro 30'k and above.. grin
