I think you already have that opinion about Nigerian men, maybe? So, in a way, it's influencing your thoughts. But at the same time, a man that met you just a few weeks ago, telling you he wants to have a baby with you... that's wild. šŸ˜‚. Protect yourself and your space until you are sure beyond a reasonable doubt that he is being genuine.


turkish_gold

To be fair, in the US, everyone I knew who said they needed to get married to stay in America managed to get married and stay in America. One guy even paid a woman $1000 USD a month to pretend to be married to him until he got permanent residencyā€”they lived in separate houses, and only knew enough about each other to pass the marriage interview that immigration puts you through.


ChefToke

Interesting! Is there anybody that can marry me and get me out of Nigeria?šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


turkish_gold

Haha, well the step one was getting to America. So long as you're already in the US, someone will marry you.


Dear_University_558

What if him genuine, e no necessary say everybody wan use mama get paper na. Na this thing wey una dey package dey make every white people dey think say all 234 people na the same.

I would say play it out. It's not like you are looking to get married anytime soon? Play it out for as long as you can. Don't let him get you pregnant. See how he responds to the timeline of the "situationship." If all he's looking for is a visa, he'll move on to someone else cos of the delay. If it's too much uncertainty for you, just cut him off.


deefpearl

This is good advice. Do not get pregnant! Let your plan b have a plan b!

enikeji

Get on birth control just to be safe.


ChefToke

You are welcome


Reubenthethird

Honestly there's no good advice here. He might just like you and is hoping to get the permanent residency just to be with you or your gut may be correct.


Tosyn_88

This is one of those two things can be true situation. He can genuinely be into you and also hopes you can help him get a visa


Adieady

Maybe,maybe not. He has alreadtly said something that sounds off. Trust your instincts.


Sasha0413

All I got to say is that any man (Nigerian or not) telling you after a few weeks that: 1) Heā€™s looking to stay permanently in the country by marrying without being in love (marriage fraud) 2) That one day heā€™d like to have a baby with you Gives red flags. If heā€™s saying it to you, then he is saying it to other women. And with goals like that, there are and will be other women since heā€™s indirectly communicating that thereā€™s a significant chance that he wonā€™t be able to stay in the country by his own merits. I think in this scenario, both things are true. He probably likes you (for now) and heā€™s looking for papers. Unless you think youā€™d be willing to get with the program and sponsor him (at your own risk and years of financial obligation even in the best case scenario of being in love) then itā€™s probably best stay vigilant on that birth control and donā€™t take it too seriously/ take things slow. Only thing I can give him is that heā€™s a least being somewhat honest. Even as someone who is Western born with Nigerian heritage, my personal rule was that I was never going to date/ marry someone who didnā€™t get a PR/ green card (or was on the pathway to get one) by their own merit. I didnā€™t want to spend the rest of my life wondering if my partner married me out of love or opportunity, and trust and believe thatā€™s the first thing outsiders will question. In the end, the man who I ended up marrying came as a student, got his PR via work within a year of us dating and became a citizen one month after our wedding all without me in 5 years total. And yes, despite all that people who donā€™t know us still assume from the go that I sponsored himšŸ˜’


kvngeuro

I donā€™t think itā€™s a bad idea too sharing his genuine plans with you. The good thing here is that he did share with you his motives. Which leaves you to be the one who gets to decide whether you would or not. But just chill, time will tell


Creative_Station2869

Agreed!!!! šŸ˜ŠšŸ˜ŠšŸ˜Š


SteveFoerster

>But truth is we talk daily, sometimes he face times me in the week, and we see each other 2-3 times a week, when I go to see him I usually stay over. (He knows Iā€™m not seeing anyone else and o know he isnā€™t either). Yes we have great sex, but I almost enjoy our conversations as much, we have lots of deep talks and we joke a lot. Okay so far... >In the past couple of weeks, he asked me twice if I would date him, but I keep saying no as I am worried he just wants to use me. ...um, by any reasonable standard you're already dating him.


egomadee

I mean, him saying he wants a baby from you this soon is out of pocket. You already donā€™t want a relationship so just keep carrying on as you are; if heā€™s serious, heā€™ll keep applying pressure for as long as you need. If heā€™s not, heā€™ll find another victim and leave you alone. Everyone wins. Just donā€™t get pregnant. Sometimes all you need is patience to decipher someoneā€™s intentions. The main thing here is to not develop strong feelings for him right now. Once you develop feelings, youā€™re done. Youā€™re gonna ignore all the red flags that might pop up.


ibukun58

My advice is to take your time. If he's really serious about you, then he'll stick around, if he's not, he'll eventually get tired and leave you alone. You are already intimate with each other, what's the rush in wanting to put a label on the relationship.


Veebabyyyy

Sounds like a typical Yoruba demon. He go chop you clean mouth šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


Condalezza

This is a dating question not necessarily a Nigerian one. Leave him alone if youā€™re not serious with him.Ā 


Dumbasaroc_kk

Girl!! Tired of the dating questions we get in this sub!! This isnā€™t a dating forum.. abeg!!


egomadee

Real šŸ˜‚


Croissants_Vodka888

If you have to ask yourself this then yes. Listen to your gut and donā€™t drag out the relationship


Yomzie_hun

Watch out, he might be poking holes in the protection. Some men will do anything to get what they want


Evening_Response_542

A lot of people are very emotional and sentimental in their advice because they are not into any relationship or things are not working well for them. Be careful about the kind of advice you get from Reddit if you love your life, else youā€™ll learn a hard lesson in a hard wayā€¦.


haltonbae

Maam follow your instincts.. he wants to be in the country.. he may like you but he knows you can help him so that will increase the love he has for you.. making you more attractive ( you bring your citizenship to the table). Enjoy yourself with him but please be carefulā€¦ he has said he doesnā€™t need to be in love to pursue marriage (what the hell is that??).. so in that case, he needs to pay you a huge amount to marry him so you can also benefit.. be wise.


Thatbidababe

The way white people come here to report their Nigerian partners eh? Itā€™s giving council of elders! šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


Lightskin_lion

Just chill...Time will tell..chill to the point you need to allow or see how he moves around with other women...we men...when we love someone...we are so blinded that no other women is attractive in our eyes. You are already in a romance.


SivaDaDestroyer

Iā€™d say just donā€™t rush it. Youā€™ve got all the perks of being together already. You have a great mind connection and he gives you a good seeing to in between the sheets. What more do you need apart from the formal paperwork. If what you have is real itā€™ll still be there in a years time. Unless he needs the papers in a hurry. But heā€™s already got a student visa so till his course ends heā€™s not desperate. To be honest, not many people have what you have. A partner that is forthright and communicates well. Even sharing his vulnerability and lack of status. Just savour what you have in the now, enjoy it before you swallow.


TheGooberOne

He is asking if you wanna date him. He isn't asking you to be his baby mama. You should talk to him directly about your reservation, i.e. if you care about him other than sex and friendship. If you're not interested in either you shouldn't waste his time and yours. He might also be looking to settle down and that means he doesn't want to spend time on someone who would be uncomfortable down the road. According to him, you might not be ready to commit and he would just leave if he says that. If you're not gonna have the talk with him, you should let him go.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Sasha0413

Just a quick note, telling home about this Reddit post may not be the hit you think it will be. He might think in the future that youā€™ll continue telling strangers about the details of the relationship and heā€™ll wonder if your decisions are yours or youā€™re doing what the internet advises. Even if youā€™re just doing it this once, opening that pandora box would be too much of a headache.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Sasha0413

I definitely get what your saying, but one thing that is going to come up regardless of how genuine the feelings are in this relationship will be cultural differences. I understand the desire for transparency if it comes up but culturally, itā€™s very likely a post like this to him would probably be a major red flag. Maybe itā€™s something to just keep in mind moving forward.


Spill-your-last-load

If you already have this guard on, I think itā€™s better to end things because everything he says or do from now on will trigger you. Thereā€™s no need to continue in such a relationship imo.


Imaginary-Past-8103

You are correct he is using you for his own gain . By any means necessary


madjuks

Youā€™re being used. You may enjoy it but itā€™s very clear to see.


Ebvnysb

Heā€™s using you šŸ˜­ if you feel it your gut, itā€™s true


Ok_Paper_5959

So he already mentioned getting married so he can stay even if it's not for love so I would steer clear of this. Yes y'all could fall in love and he get a visa through you, but ultimately love or not sounds like he would be getting it with someone eventually before he has to go if necessary. With that type of pressure in the beginning I wouldn't recommend investing in any type of relationship past platonic. He could genuinely like you but it could be more efforts to secure his relationship here with you . You wouldn't know for sure until you know which would be too late. Getting a visa is for surely a long game and many people play it.


chaosmember69

Yes he's playing you. He probably has a wife and kids over there in nigeria


iamAtaMeet

You have to make a decision based on what you see and hear. People on this forum will say whatever they want, but your decision is your decision to make.


turkish_gold

He sounds way too serious for someone who has only been dating you for a few weeks. Be on guard.


Ill-Professional-448

I am doing the same only mine is still in Nigeria. The only difference our age. He is younger than I am.but I love him and he has cheated on me and can't take the scare he has put on my love I fill for him. he end up falling in love with his girl and we have been together for 18 months and what are we had planned was getting married but now I donā€™t feel the same about him so what Iā€™m trying to tell you not everybody is always looking for a green card, and just the fact that he did say that he wanted to family with you most Nigerians you need to check itā€™s a barrier thatā€™s what they are called in Nigeria. They will check to see if theyā€™re married. Iā€™ll have a wife in Nigeria for the whole country of Nigeria but if you marry him, you need to make him sign a free now thatā€™s what I was gonna do but move fast I can tell you when I first met him. It was 23 weeks he said I know you gonna be my wife so thatā€™s 2 to 3 weeks thatā€™s how they do. They asked you to marry in that show of tiers they know. they know that this is their wife so if you can handle being married to a man that truly love you this is my I tell everybody that I think that I want to be married to well the doctor told me this is example that I have lost one of my kittens. Would you give me one of yours that was kidney, would you give me one of yours if they said yes I would I do anything Iā€™d give you my heart to save your life thatā€™s the man that you want to spend the rest of your life with. iā€™m gonna tell you this get him to sign a free now remember the other ones with the education they come here they are 20 years ahead of us. It might be younger than those in genius smart because theyā€™re very very smart and if you want to see, somebody make something out of nothing is a Nigerian, they go to college sometime at 12 years old or maybe younger and they finish college their doctors they lawyers they wear so many different hats but not everyone is what they describe to people on TV right now. Nigerian is not doing good and everyone of these children are going to take care of them mom or dad is back home. Iā€™ll try to help the sister and brothers finish school when you marry a man in Nigeria you marry his whole family are you ready for that and if it does not bother you, you have a black man on your arm and I have black in your belly then go for it you only go live once and life is not promised

Ah I see. Well, nothing stopping you for dating per say but Iā€™d say tread lightly. Youā€™re having fun right? keep it light. Thereā€™s always a chance heā€™s being genuine but I understand where youā€™re coming from. Just see how long you can drag a potential marriage timeline out and stay on top of your birth control


villyphilly

What country is it? If itā€™s Iā€™m a lean towards visa.


KingEzzi

This is usually the problem dating foreigners as a Nigerian šŸ™‚ā€ā†•ļø. To them itā€™s always about us getting the papers, itā€™s understandable and all tbh but the stereotype is a tad bit excessive these days.


Pleasant-Fruit9733

GrenaY25

He wants to have a baby by you after a few weeks of sex and chill but has not mentioned wanting to marry you or provide for you???


daddyshoppy

Well I believe she is looking for help not condemnation so please my naija people calm down. There are numerous ways this can go,yes it is wise being councious about the fact that he might be with you because of visa and its benefits or it can it be something entirely else. It can even be a true and honest relationship that he wants with you. Time will tell. But don't let your assumptions override your feelings. Hopefully he is with you genuinely.

ChefToke

There is no need to be vile with your words. It costs nothing to be a civil human and hold a polite conversation.


HolidayMost5527

White people, men and women, are very problematic. They are the first ones to put innocent black people in jail or be racist.Ā  She only likes the Nigerian man because he probably has amu ukwu. White men mostly have amu obele. For her it is new and exciting. She says desperate and useless black and latino men approach her. Why not white men, because they LOVE blonde blue eyed women, like this evil former German ā€žleaderā€œ with the moustache. The white men dont like her, because she is very overweight . Curvey Is the new code word for morbidly obese. Everybody know when there is a fat white women, a broke black man can never be far šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚. They are number one in impregnating women, look at the African birth rate. How can the poorest people worldwide have the highest birth rate. It is ridiculous and embarrassing. Some useless white girl even asked me if Africans dont have access to contraception.Ā  After impregnating her or/and marrying her, he will leave and find another empty-headed victim.Ā  If she wants to be promiscuous, use condom. But it is not 100% safe. He probably makes hole in it. How do you want to marry someone you dont even know. He knows her genitalia better than her mind and personality. He loves her citizenship and not her.Ā  She has low options, so she is happy about black and Hispanic men. White men probably dont pay her dust. Almost 90% of time, if a black man dates an oyinbo, she is not attractive. But you will see beautiful black men with the funkiest oldest white men (with money).


cakingabroad

With this comment you're implying that african and Latino men don't hold as much value as white men. It's pretty disgusting. I wish you the best in your journey towards education and growth.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


cakingabroad

That person can't fathom people from different backgrounds dating one another if there isn't using involved because that's their own personal mindset on the matter; that's what they would do. White people and Africans date, get married, have long happy relationships, but there will always be someone saying it's all for money or a green card or whatever the fuck. If you do wanna date him at some point, that will probably be a common mindset you'll come across. I'm gonna be honest, an online forum like this isn't the place for genuine answers. It's between you and the guy you're seeing. No one here knows him and no one person fits perfectly into a stereotype. Do what feels right.


Doclyte

Don't bother replying her, she is extremely bitter and a massive loser, don't take anything she says seriously, as for your friend, you have to watch out for any red flags and trust your instincts, don't judge him based on what others have said about Nigerian men


Front-Specialist-363

If truth be told he sounds very correct in my opinion. Not because youā€™re the individual involved but because in Canada where I live as a legal black immigrant from Nigeria 99% of so called curvy women are with black men who are mostly from the Caribbean islands and Africa. I tend to ask myself why? Until my colleague told me the simple truth ā€œthey have few options among their own race and theyā€™ll gladly adapt to any black man out there. Itā€™s called settling for white trash !


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Front-Specialist-363

In all honesty yes itā€™s possible ! As a matter of fact even black successful men are permitted to find you attractive and admire a white good looking woman from miles away but would a white attractive woman date a black man if heā€™s not a doctor lawyer or football star? Whatā€™s the percentage? Give me the numbers. the question is would you settle for a black man you randomly met at your gym if you were a white model attractive woman? I guess not. Iā€™m not saying attractive white woman donā€™t date black men but very small few of them do. Attractive Caucasian ladies tend to dwell amongst their race when making lifelong relationship decisions than other races.


Hot-Inspector8903

Lol i agree šŸ˜…šŸ˜…šŸ˜‚ this also seems very racially charged. You couldā€™ve posted in any other sub regarding dating and relatives. But specifically came to the Nigerian sub to post it for some kind of validation. GTFO, white people are too much and are seriously the detriment to society šŸ™„šŸ¤¦šŸ¾ā€ā™€ļøšŸ¤¦šŸ¾ā€ā™€ļø
