10 Things Women Like to Hear From Their Men

They say women love to hear lies from their men, as long as that is what they want at that point in time. Personally, and some women I know have said the same, I prefer genuineness in a guy. I want to know you're being honest in our interactions and telling me the truth most of the time. I want a guy who will allow me watch my 30mins of E! and still discuss politics when we need to.

However, some men find it hard figuring out how to put their feelings and emotions about their ladies into words that are real and not too flowery. So this one is for the men who love us. Do you sometimes find yourself struggling to find the right things to say to the lady in your life? Whether you are in a committed relationship or wanting to take your relationship to the next level, here are 10 ways to talk and engage with your woman.

1. “You’re very smart.”
I know I want to be appreciated for my intelligence. It could be her book-smarts or street smarts but complimenting your woman on how savvy she is in different situations show that you're paying attention, and seeing the whole package, not just to her body.

Nigerian Prostitutes in Italy - Migration and Prostitution

Some of you may have seen these pictures before, I saw them yesterday and I was terribly disturbed. Now, don't get me wrong, I know Italy has it's fair share of prostitutes, a good number of them Nigerian, but in all the documentaries, news, and books, they worked in brothels or backway alleys at night. Seeing the conditions in which these women in the pictures worked was like a punch in my stomach.

A part of me insisted these had to be editorial images, photographed with models, meant to shock. But even if so, I also knew it could be feasible. Some Nigerian women could actually be living and working in environments like these, for money, for whatever. I wanted to blame the Nigerian goverment, I wanted to blame the Italian government, I wanted to blame the women themselves, after all, wouldn't it be better to live in a mud house in Nigeria than be a sex worker in a condom-strewn bush clearing?

But what if this was some person with a camera wanting to paint a single story? It was all doing my head in, so I had to find the origin of the pictures. And I did. The images are real, the women are real, they were shot by Paolo Patrizi, an Italian documentary photographer who now lives in Japan. I found this out on his website, and when I found his number on there, I decided to call him too. We spoke for a few minutes and he confirmed the pictures are geniune and of real working women.

Setting P 101 - How To Meet and Keep ‘The One’

Meeting people is probably not new of us, I often imagine that no matter how goofy a guy is, he should at least be able to “parole” a lady (albeit a likewise goofy one),but as it turns out many of us truly aren’t bold enough to step up to ladies.

How do you meet good women?

Honestly there are no theoretically good and bad places to meet women while night clubs are not always bad choices as long as one keeps it in mind that a lady you take to your apartment on first meeting doesn’t expect you to call afterwards (google the word one night stand and you'll understand what I mean) . The key to meeting and getting to know a woman is finding a common ground on which to start a conversation. That said, the easiest platform is always the church Aha!!

Sugar Mummy or Daddy Any Where in Nigeria

One guy named Bernard Udoka has been leaving comments all over my blog for the past few months, and I always delete them. But I've decided to put it out there after someone I told said I might be denying some people the opportunity. Well, here's the deal.

Hello good news to all young boys and girls of Nigeria, here is a great chance for you all getting a mature relationship without stress okay? So if you have any interest on getting a sugar mummy or daddy any were in Nigeria, all you need to do is to give me a call on 080****** for more information on how to get one thanks. Mr Bernard Udoka 

I'm totally joking, of course. I used to see these kinds of ads in the classified section of some newspapers while in Nigeria, and sometimes I wonder, are there really sugar mommies in Nigeria? The daddies we know, they are now called Aristos, but the women? And the men who deliberately become gigolos, I would love to talk to one, if I could.

Veteran Justus Esiri who started acting on stage in Germany since the late sixties died yesterday as announced by his son, Dr Sid. Justus Esiri's fame was launched widely from his role in the popular Nigerian TV series, the village headmaster where he played the title role.
