Hook-search in Hallo Africa

So friends, what is it like to date a man of Nigerian origins? Any tips or recommendations? So far, must say that my dear Mr Cosby is clearly and frankly a superman. Kind, energetic, happy, stable, interested, intelligent, responsible, understanding, supportive, super in bed, single (!), well-educated, creative, successful, mature, ready for a steady relationship (so many boxes ticked!). He keeps track of all silly things I think of and talk about, which is a virtue in itself.

He has loads of friends, and friend-girls (as he calls them), that he wants me to meet all the time. He takes a lot of interest in my friends and even copes with them. Highly impressive. His parents are well-educated and seem to be lovely and caring. His mum and he are very close and best pals. He is adored by and adores his daughter who lives nearby with her mum and her new family. They all get along really well. Shiny happy people. A great person all in all. So, what´s the hook? Well, people are telling me that Nigerian men are old fashioned, possessive and don´t let the wife do anything by herself. And that this occurs as soon as he gets married, even if he has been openminded during courting.

Well, ok fans, I know. I am not getting married yet, but being good old me, I need to analyze a bit here behind the scenes.

So, detective Spinster will do some research here:

• How do his siblings live in Nigeria?
• Why did he divorce his wife?
• How does he feel about wifes working when having children?

A lady cannot be careful enough these days. Input welcome.

I will be back.
