A Nigerian woman, Anthonia Umerah, has said she is finding it difficult to date a man who doesn’t have a car since she bought one.
The businesswoman, who disclosed this in a Facebook post on Wednesday, June 18, said she’s constantly imagining how to navigate through the potential challenges in the relationship, especially if the man is insecure.
“Since I bought a car, I started finding it very hard to date a man who does not have a car. In my head, I am usually imagining how the experience will be like. Will I be parking my car at home while we use taxi to go out on dates or will I carry my car, probably drop him at him place after the date before going home instead of the other way round and being the one driving a man,” she wrote.
Abi I will carry my car key give man? See ehh, is not like there’s anything wrong about a man not having a car at the moment but, it became weird for me to date one. There’s one I met few days ago, from my observation and our conversation, the guy is okay o. His only offense was just that, he does not own a car and I felt like it was affect my steeze.
This was previously not a problem for me at all when I didn’t have a car and I know there are woman who naturally don’t like dating men who do not own a car despite not having and it is still very VALID but my own issues about it started since I bought a car and I don’t know why.
I feel like; being the one to drive a man up and down is a masculine trait and I want to be feminine
One thing that also scare me about this, is that, a lot of Nigerian men have insecurity issues.
Situation like this may bruise the ego of an insecure man and he will start telling you “is it because you have a car in every little misunderstanding.
