Surprise Him: By surprise I’m talking pleasant
surprises, not the “I can’t find my period “ surprise, you better look for where you kept it. Do something unexpected and sweet.
Those impromptu things are very nice, imagine how he will feel if you surpised
him with lunch at work and a beautiful note… his friends will be talking about it! Surprise him by making his favourite food
without him requesting it. Surprise him with a massage.

Since we heard that Angelina Jolie bought a heart shaped Island
for darling bobo’s Brad Pitt, men no allow us hear word again. I’ve been
observing on twitter, any small thing they will remind you say “nor be your
mate dey buy Island for her guy?”…well, I can think of a very smart retort but
I shall not sweat it.
Nigerian girls are romantic too! Na lie? I have seen
examples left, right, center, but today I’m going to focus on the romaticness of
my colleagues girlfriend….that babe too much! I tatafo’d to his desk the other day and
I saw a box of very yummylicious looking cupcakes, with a note on it: signed,
sealed delivered by his babe.
When I mentioned how nice she was he proceeded to tell me some more romantic things she does for him, so if you’re one of those
unromantic Naija babes and you want to learn, take notes! How to be a romantic
girl friend 101!Tweet
Buy Him Gifts: Not because it's his birthday, I
know some girls na aka gum, nothing dey fit comot their pocket. They have money
oh but can never never never buy something good for their guy. Why not buy him
a lovely scented perfume, just because. Or buy him a tie, a belt, pair of shoes, packet
of handkerchief just because... Give and it shall be given unto you. It’s not
everyday you will be collecting recharge card. As a matter
of fact, buy him recharge card! The shirt my colleague was wearing that day, who buy am? The babe. Osahon, you are enjoying.
Take Him Out: Yes, he cannot be the one taking
you out every day, kilode?! You can google what movies are showing and hand him
tickets to the cinema, for the both of you! You know he loves Hunger Games,
Hunger Games 2 is out now oh, go and buy ticket for ya man! Take him out to
lunch, take him out to events. Plan a weekend getaway for you both, that’s if
your pepper rest well. Give him a treat, don't take him to a restaurant, pay for food and tell him to pay for drinks oh. Pay for everything. Be his maga occasionally.
Write/Text Him: BBM don spoil market, I feel
special when I receive a text instead of these annoying PING! PING!! PING!!! In
fact, GLO texts me more than my family and friends. Try texting
your Bobo instead, write him a letter with sweet words, men have very imaginative minds, play with his mind. Write little notes and hide them in the
pocket of his suits, shirts and shoes e. t. c. Men like to pretend they don't like those small things but they do :p
Talk To Him: Romance is not all about money,
talk to that your guy! What are his interests? What are his dreams? Let him
tell you about why he prefers Arsenal to Man United. Let him tell you things he
would like to do, have “deep conversations”, it bonds couples and that’s a
romantic thing you can do that won’t cost shi-shi.
Dear Naija babes, I know you’re more romantic
than this, tell me more ways to be romantic to a guy! How romantic are you? Don’t fall my hand, prove
the guys wrong!

You've outlined all the major ones, I'll add a couple: Gettin his measurements and making a nice custom made shirt or ankara shirt is also a nice idea...without his knowledge of course and ummm, playin hide and seek hehehe...leaving little notes round the house for him to find u, and when he does...a bigger surprise awaits *insert desired surprise here* lol
ReplyDeletelol.. if me sef get money i go buy am country nau.. i will be rich in Jesus Name
ReplyDeleteHahahahah!
DeleteThis is very apt but unpopular. A complete departure from the norm among present-day ladies who think romance is primarily the guy's work and they have no part to play. Kudos Sisiyemmie
ReplyDeletePlease don't let mine read things like this....she has my card and PIN Ooooh .
ReplyDeleteLMAO!!! Oga you are in for some serious special treatments on your own account o>>>
DeleteA friend of mine customized a set of Tees for her boyfriend and herself. I think that's sweet, they look really cool whenever they wear the t-shirts together.
ReplyDeleteDo guys like roses? of course I am not talking about a bouquet, I mean the single red roses. I think you can just send that with a very nice card to your guy on a normal day, just because..
ReplyDeleteWhat i do for my baby is that i always remind him how much I love him. Most nites i send him romantic msgs... He wakes up to dem n smiles.
ReplyDeleteOoo howbet wen u hv neva goten any of dose 4rm him; wah do u do in dis situation @ sisiyemmie
ReplyDeleteMen also like being pampered and treated like a baby especially when he's sick. You could also plan a surprise birthday party for him on his birthday. Always remind him and emphasize how handsome and cute he is
ReplyDeleteWat if he's nt handsome, should I tell lies to make him feel good....lol
DeleteIt nyc when u treat ur man it doesn't ve to be him doing it always. I suprised mu hubby with 1hr body massage and 30mins facial and he said we should this more often. Relationship involves two people and both have to contribute in2 it 2 be effective.
ReplyDeleteI always talk to my man and buy him recharge card too once in a while...I dey try too.
ReplyDeleteRecharge card bawo? Soon you will buy Etisalat sim card.
DeleteI talk to my man always...and buy recharge too once in while.
ReplyDeleteOsaretin abokoku...i taught you well.
ReplyDeletehey!!!!!!!! O & O!!!!!!!!!! my people!!!!!!!!!!! totally awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteAnother idea - a basket of his favorite things or turn your living room into your own picnic or go classy and restaurant themed. Just the two of you, dim lights et all. Always blows any man away :).
xx
My people!!!!!! O & O!!!!!!!! Too much love mehn!
ReplyDeleteOther ideas - a basket of his favorite things. You could also consider turning your living room into a picnic for two or go classy - restaurant themed - Just the two of you.
Really nice, out of the 5 points listed, I passed 3. My man & i pamper each other but for some months now, since ASUU strike & no salary for lecturers .
ReplyDeleteHave made him realize I love him for him.... I take him out for lunch, send him recharge cards & fuel his car. And he appreciates so much
Na small, small naija babes will give angelina jolie a run for her money........
it takes a lot of effort though, but its worth it in the end!
ReplyDeleteThe points you listed are all well and good, but let me add one more: "Don't smother him" ..if you overdo (yes, you can) any of the romantic things, he might very well begin to take them for granted
ReplyDeleteOsaretin=Ruth!!!
ReplyDeleteMy hubby and l go on date nights to spice things up. It takes our minds off everyday things like work, bills etc.
ReplyDeletePls share your endometriosis stories @ endochallenges.wordpress.com. Let's beat endo together!
All a woman needs to do to show appreciation to a man is to be loyal, show belief and commitment to his dreams and not to act like she knows it all. These things are more fundamental than these your ideas. Swallowing sugar does not create happiness. Men marry because they think they have found a partner who believes in them. The issue mostly is that after escaping their mothers they find a young woman trying to recreate the very attitudes they resented in their mothers.
ReplyDeleteShow him appreciation very often, treat him like a king but make sure you take of yourself because you have to be a Queen for your King. P.S. if your guy is a die hard gamer like mine, buy him PS4 or xbox1. JUST LOVE HIM!!!
ReplyDeleteSurprise him with something he has been craving for a long time and treat him like a King, ps you have to be a queen for your king so always look good and smell nice!!!
ReplyDeleteTreat him like a king and make sure you make yourself a queen fit for a king. Surprise him with something he has been craving or set aside a day to cater to him
ReplyDeletelol I Love these relationship posts you do. very nice, I think I'll nick a few pointers from here for me nd my bf.....
ReplyDeleteIf giving gifts and surprising the man with nice lunches at work are the yardstick for determining if a lady is romantic, then I am definitely the most romantic of all. :) Otherwise, I do not consider myself romantic and I do these things. It gives me such joy to do nice things for him so I do them... I have to anyway, to make up for the days when I am being a tyrannical fiend :)
ReplyDeleteNonsense if u get nagin babe were be say u go de pray to run liv her 4aus,dat type go play horror romance with u were go mak u b first class citizen for ward one or landlord for motuary.some 9ja gels ned dow n ntn more all dey wnt is giv me dis n dat n probly lil sex
