3 ladies share dating lessons gotten from their dads

I hated talking about sex, boys and relationship with my dad when I was younger but today, I think he really helped me get through serious heart breaks.

What's the best father dating advice?

Well, I was.

I hated it but sat there listening to my father dishing out harsh advises about staying off men and focusing on my books! In my mind, I really wanted to tell him, "shut up!" but looking back now, I think I got my first dating lessons from my father.

These three Nigerian ladies are sharing their first dating lessons they learned from their own dads just when the world recently celebrated Father's Day.

1.) Did you like talking boys with your father?

Tolani: "Funny enough, I did! My dad was really cool…. I could say, one of those really cool dads. Lol. He's of late now but he wanted me to tell him everything when I was growing up… including my love life. It was always a shy moment but I loved it."

Amara: "I never had a chance to hang out with my father so much as to have long conversations about men. He left us with my mother when I was really young and I have lived with my mom all my life. When I got to talk with my father, it was just ok."

Yetunde:  "I hated it!!!! It was very embarrassing to the best of my knowledge. But he still sat me down for those chats. Maybe I didn't listen as much as I should have. Lol."

2.) What's the first dating lesson your dad gave you?

Tolani: "Stay away from boys, they are not worth it."

Amara: "Please do not allow a guy get you pregnant before you finish school"

Yetunde: "Men are dangerous! They never want anything good from a young school girl". Lol.

3.) What's the best dating advice you'd give to your son or daughter?

Tolani: "I will hammer on them to focus on school instead of having student boyfriends or girlfriends. I will have to explain to them why educations is way more important than relationships and what you could achieve in life with certificates instead of being a baby mama."

Amara: "Sex, love, relationships are great and part of life but it comes and gets better with age. Every age has its priority and when you are a student, sex or relationships can't be on top".

Yetunde: "I will tell my daughter what my father told me, 'Men are dangerous'. Turst me, I know that. But I will do my best to protect my kids from keeping bad company or even going out and coming late. 4-6pm is enough!"
