Men

I am struggling with the words that will help me express my thoughts and feeling adequately in this post. I hope I am able to paint the picture properly and pass my message across like I feel. I wonder, and this is no diss to anybody in particular o, but I wonder if there are sill real men out there. At this point, I pause and go to dictionary.com, just to be sure I know what I am talking about, and discovers that there are over 30 definitions of MAN, so I no go bother to try define wetin man be again. Anyways, I am going to try to describe what I am talking about here. A man is a male, the opposite of a woman, both biologically and otherwise (make sense??!!).

I have issues with men. I have issues with the ones I meet, let me not commit the fallacy if hasty generalization. I don’t understand them or what they want. My greatest desire right now is to be able to read the minds of men, maybe that way I can tell what they are wired of! I mean where do you put a man who is engeged to a woman and they are both preparing for their wedding, suddenly springs up one day and says some other girl is pregnant for him, and it was a mistake it happened in the first place so…So wetin?? Ehn, so make wetin happen?? just like that o, heart don break, supposed happy home in the making don disintegrate. I know at this point some of you would say the (my) problem is where I meet “these” men, but let me be quick to answer you that I meet them in all places o, name it… the office, in the store, at social gatherings, in church, all sorts of places, so I am talking about an average guy on the street now.

I have a number of guy acquaintances in my life right now, and it baffles me to death the way they think. I mean how do you expect a guy asking me out, and trying to win my heart, trying to convince me I am his all in all, ask me if I like kissing and if yes does it turn me on??!! I think that is sick. To the guy now he is being honest abi what?? What message is he trying to pass across to me?! and the funny thing is I was beginning to like the guy o, on that one I rest my case.

The one wey wan kill me die na this guy wey I meet for church o…ok guy, good spoken English, make sense kind of guy from appearances but…make I never judge am yet. We just hit it off cos that day it was an invited guest speaking and she was talking on how to make marriage work. We both are single so we were sharing opinions and all, long and short we turn paddys come dey call each other o. The conversations were really going on well and we were …u kno, nothing o, but make sense conversations… sha 2 weeks into the meeting, na im bros tell me make I come im house on saturday, sleep over make we for go church together on sunday o. I weak. I just bow for the guy, I thought he was joking o, until he started goin on about it, that he is very serious, and can’t he host me??!! Host me??!! Ha,  am asking now o, all you men out there, is that normal?…you meet a girl and two weeks after you met you are asking her to come sleep over already?? Tell me if something no wrong somewhere. Why do men make it difficult for women to trust them?? Why do they make it difficult for ME to trust them? na wa o.

I beg to know what all these is about, I beg to know if there are men that are sincere and don’t have ulterior motives each time they open their mouths to talk to women. Must you sample any woman that comes your way?? believeing that the chick outside is better than the one you are with, truth is, the grass always look greener on the other side but it is not necessarily so. I beg to know if there are guys that want what most women want which is respect, a good home, a dependable spouse, trust, etc??? Are there men that want these things and if yes where are they?? Cos na wetin me I dey find be that, and all the people wey I dey see just dey fall my hand.

  1. lol……
    i was goin to leave a comment with the names i felt were d guys i tot u were talkin about but since u already told me who dey were, i’d just keep my mouth shut….
    nice piece thou, and like dey always say, Gods time is the best…

  2. I discovered that it’s in the nature of a guy who has no genuine fear of God to make all kinds of offer to any lady they meet anywhere, it’s how we ladies handle them that matters most. They see, like and talk rubbish…..lol

    We however need to be sure we’re not sending out the wrong signals or attracting the wrong people all the time, it’s veeery clear these days that ‘where’ doesnt matter anymore, they’re everywhere. There are still correct guys definitely, and you’ll meet them if you stay connected to God.

    HMMM.

    This is a good piece on your thought based on men and i will quite agree on some issues concerning men but not all men are liable to be judged by others behavior.

  4. Nice piece… well constructed. well that is the reality of today for you. There is so much sex in our everyday life so most guys think with their Pe**s rather than their heads, on the other hand women are also a problem they av become so cheap that they now cost a dime a dozen. Well there are still a lot of gentle men out there all you need to do is SHINE YOUR EYES!!!!

  5. Nice Read. Could you please write about women too!!!

  6. True talk about men.
    Dont get discouraged. Stay connected with God and an advice: Dont think, walk, sit, stand and pose as if you need to settle down. It tips guys off!
    Just be straight about it sis

  7. yea well constructed. but u know to know wat a guy is wired of depends on how u guys hit it off. fine u ad the bad side of the coin a couple of times but u know d sweetness in a man’s nature cant be doubted when u get the ryt one dat takes all of ur energy. seen a situation where ladies have done worse tins. so????????????its not the end of the world. but u got a good way of puttin ur tots to pen.

    Thank you all.

    Tunde, thanks again. I am not not in doubt that there are sweet men out there, I just wonder where they are! I am sure also that woman do things just as bad to men, but here I talking about my opinion, experiences, thoughts.

  9. u welcome. its a good composition and its outrightly natural

  10. Topsie ,there is nothing like sending out wrong signals my dear, the only way to get to know someone is by being friendly and cordial.It is very sad that we have lost our values.The church am sorry has lost focus it is only prosperity,prosperity and materialism.The main foundation of Christianity is repentance and salvation, but the church am sorry has now kept mum on that it is now telling people what the want to hear.Young men are not being taught the way of the cross.Fathers and mothers are failing their sons.A female child is told from day one to respect their body and that sex is a sacred thing, only saved for the marriage bed but sons are not taught to respect their body and respect the opposite sex.In a society were men are expected to be adulterous and promiscuous what do you expect.We still have a long way to go.My dear hang in there don’t spend all your time worrying about men you are young,beautiful and full of life enjoy your self as much as possible, I bet you with your solid moral background the good guy will surely find you.
