10 things men hate when

out on a date

Recently, I wrote on the ten things ladies hate when

out on a date to give the men a little expo on what not
to do. This week, I have given the men a chance to
express themselves by talking to different men on
what they dislike when they take a lady out on a date.
I got really interesting feedbacks I must say. Let’s
begin!

1. BRINGING YOUR FRIEND ALONG: This

particular point was always at the tip of men’s lips as
soon as I asked the question on what they dislike on
dates. Most girls are guilty of this. A guy asks you out
on a movie date, dinner date or whatever the case may
be, and some ladies deem it fit to bring their friends
along. Well ladies, the guys hate this; so, don’t do it
again if you are guilty.

2. LOOKING TACKY OR UNKEMPT: We know

we have bad hair days sometimes as ladies. Before you
go on a date, make sure you look nice. Straighten
those edges, keep your nails well-manicured or
painted and wow your date. Guys love their dates
being admired.

3. TALKING TOO MUCH: Some ladies don’t know

when to stop talking. When you are out on a date with
someone you just met, you don’t want to give him
your whole life history. Leave him wondering what is
more to you that makes you awesome. I’m not saying
keep mute or don’t engage in conversations, no one
likes that either. Just try to be comfortable.

4. PRETENDERS: This was another re-occurring

issue for the guys. Nigerian guys call it “forming”. You
go out on a date with this cute guy and because you
want to look like a “big girl,” you say things like “I
don’t eat swallow.” Meanwhile, you had pounded yam
and egusi soup for lunch. I watched a skit on YouTube
where a girl was talking to her friends and said “I
prefer apple to Mac.” If you know you are guilty of
this, all I can say to you is “There is God o!”

5. INCONSIDERATE BABES: Ladies, please, when

out on a date with a guy, order moderately. It’s not
fair when you go out without ordering according to
the man’s pocket. Do unto others what you want them
to do unto you.

6. BAD EATING HABITS: These drives most men

crazy; eating with your mouth open, making sounds
while chewing, talking while eating and so on. Do not
put your date in an uncomfortable position .Try to
always chew with your mouth closed and if you really
need to talk, wait till you swallow the food in your
mouth first. If you don’t know how to chew food,
practice at home in front of the mirror or better still,
ask a good friend who will tell you the truth. This
should help.

7. TALKING ABOUT THE EX: This is not a good

sign for both men and women. Talking about the ex
on a date is a no go area! There is a reason why they
are called “ex,” so move on.

8. CHATTING ON YOUR PHONE OR
LENGTHY PHONE CALLS: This is not a good look
when out on a date. This could be interpreted to mean
you are not interested in your date. Keep your phones
away and have a healthy conversation.

9. BUYING TAKE-AWAY FOR FRIENDS: Your

date is over and you think it’s time to order for your
friends at home or in the hostel. Put one thing in
mind, he is taking “YOU” out on the date and not your
friends. If your friends are hungry, let them get their
own date or buy “Mama Put” if they are hungry. They
would not lose hair on their bodies if you don’t buy for
them.

10. SAY THANK YOU: This is really important

ladies. After a nice day or evening out, a simple thank
you won’t hurt.

The Letterman: Unveiling Obasanjo and His
Nonpareil Roles In History

The Letterman: Inside the "Secret" Letters of

former Nigerian President, Olusegun Obasanjois a
narrative non-fiction curating some of the most
significant and historical letters written by former
President Olusegun Obasanjo, which compellingly
tell the story of his life, as defined by and is
defining of the story of his country, Nigeria and the
larger African continent.

This tour de force of historical writing situates

Musikilu Mojeed as a witness and skillful raconteur
who deftly manages to braid far-flung pieces into a
magisterial whole that unveils the attitudes,
worldview, relationships, emotional complexity
and stewardship of this enigmatic global
statesman, through the correspondences he
exchanged with others.

The Letterman is a product of almost seven years

of assiduous research, whose chronicle unfolds
from the time of Obasanjo as General Officer
Commanding the Third Marine Commando and his
wartime efforts, through his tenure as military
head of state between 1976 and 1979, his
continental liberation struggles and political
activism from the 1970s to 1999, his civilian
presidential term from 1999 to 2007, as well as his
post-presidency era.

These letters essentially tell a story that is as deeply

personal as it is painstakingly national, and global.
This finds no less testament than in the words of
Chief Emeka Anyaoku, a former Secretary-General
of the Commonwealth of Nations, whose Foreword
to the books declares, in part, that, “I believe that
the Olusegun Obasanjo letters will find a
prominent place in the chapters of Nigeria’s
contemporary history as informative insights into
the national affairs of the country when they were
written. I therefore recommend this book, The
Letterman, by Musikilu Mojeed to the reading
public.”
