A Nigerian guy who criticised the increasing practice of males asking women out right away after meeting them for the first time has caused a lot of backlash on social media.
In the video, which has now gone viral on social media, the man is shown voicing his intense disdain of some young men’s “rushed and senseless” relationship approaches.
The man in the video questioned the reasoning behind falling in love with someone just hours after meeting them, claiming that this shows a lack of emotional maturity and poor discernment.
“You see the set of boys that will ask you for your number and you give it to them and the same day… they will chat you up and tell you that they like you and that same day… they’ll be asking you to be their girlfriend,” he said.
He went further to describe such actions in harsh terms, saying, “You see the set of boys. They are very very stupid… Those set of boys are so strange.”
The speaker also expressed shock at the speed at which some people try to establish love relationships without adequate communication or understanding.
The man expressed worries about what he perceives as a decline in the development of genuine relationships, emphasising that getting to know someone should take time rather than be hurried.
“How can you tell me that you meet a girl the first time and you’ll be asking the girl out? For what?” he questioned.
He added in a mix of Pidgin and English, “Bro, you know wetin you dey find? You no just get sense at all?”
In addition to condemning men, the speaker questioned women who accept such quick proposals, implying that it shows poor judgement on their part as well.
“And all those girls that will accept that kind of nonsense, I don’t even understand you girls… then we meet on the first day, we chat you and I’ll be asking you out and you accept the guy. That’s wrong,” he stated.
