What Is Wrong About Asking A Girl Her Age? by Stankovic22: 11:30am On Oct 23, 2021
Please pardon my typo...

Good morning ops. Please I am curious to know why Nigerian ladies see it as a big deal to reveal their age.

It happened that I met this melanin princess via a whatsapp group and we clicked. Less than a week after our first chat. We have been chatting, sending voice notes and did video call once. We even talked about our relationships, tribes and what we do but I was curious to know the age of the person I chat with so as to know how to flow with the conversation, what to say and what not to say because we have under aged girls these days in adult body spread across social media... I wouldn't want to be on the wrong side of the law.

So, I asked her to tell me her age and she blanked off. Later she came and told me the age (I didn't really buy the number cos she looks older than it). I was like OK cool but the next statement from her was... "Please never you ask a girl about her age again, it is our pride". I was surprised like what is the big deal about women's age.

Also, I have a lot of female friends who will never reveal their age. Any topic about their age is a no go area.

Why is it so? I have read stories of people getting into trouble because of their relationship with a grown minor whom they thought was an adult. A good example is popular singer Akon.

Ladies what is the big deal about the age?

Its a sensitive question to some and not everyone wants to answer it, some people make fun of age, sometimes u tell a someone ur age and they go ahead to say, ah, u are still a small girlvor Ah, u don old o, it may not be a big deal but little things like that have a lot of negative effect on someone's ego.

It depends on how close u guys are and if she's fond of u, otherwise u can ask her more sensitive question like what plans she has for the future, her type etc

If u don't mind @OP, how old are u?

OP..
The Europeans have a saying 'Women and wine Should never be dated'.. cool

Have you heard of people going to jail because they had affairs with teenage girls they assumed are adults?

You did no wrong. They will always read meanings to a simple and harmless question. Moreover with the way these females balloon up these days, one can never tell. I have seen 14 years old girls already looking 20 in body features. If one is not careful it is becomes a paedophile case. angry

I swear... I once worked in a school... There is this 14yrs old girl all grown up and bigger than my elder sister of 30yrs.

If you see she and her friends ehhh... Without care you will end up in jail.
