A lot of female visitors who storm Lagos have
romance at the back of their minds as they hope to meet the guy that
would sweep them off their feet during their stay. Unfortunately, while
single men are literally everywhere in the city, meeting quality single
guys can be an arduous task. Everyone seems to be so busy, and the ones
you manage to meet at bars and club may not exactly be what you would
consider “quality”.
Truth
is, finding eligible men in Lagos could be an elusive game if they are
at a loss as to where to meet them. Jovago.com, Africa’s largest online hotel booking
portal comes to the rescue with top 5 ways girls in Lagos who are
serious about taking their destiny can meet quality eligible men.
Get your blood pumping at the gym
If
you have a gym in your hotel or a sport center around you, take
advantage of it. Most of the men in Lagos are fitness conscious and they
like to spend quality time at the gym. Basically, you would be killing
two birds with one stone: you get to exercise your body, get your blood
flowing, and also create opportunities to run into the love of your
life!
Most
of the men you will meet at the gym would be attractive and responsible
as their presence at the gym already shows that they value their
health. And do not forget to go for an attractive sports gear as opposed
to the normal sweat pants and T-shirt.
Attend weddings
Anyone
who lives in Lagos can attest to the fact that wedding are the number
one place to meet single quality guys. Forget the lewd assumption that
single men at weddings just want to get laid, if you keep that in mind,
you will not make progress. Most of the men actually come to wedding to
look out for the girls who rush out for the bouquet when the bride
throws it to the crowd, that way they know they already stand a chance.
Do
not deny any invitation to a wedding, especially when it is a friend or
someone of good reputation. Just ensure you look great, keep a smile
and look approachable, dance like your life depends on it, and of
course, fight for that bouquet when you see it high up in the air.
Go to church
Rather
than sit in your hotel room or place of accommodation on the Sunday
while visiting, why not get up, get dressed and head out to church? You
never know who you would meet and what better way to meet a quality
single guy than coming across him in the presence of the lord? There is
none better than a man who has high regard for God and stays committed
to his religion. There is a higher chance of things working out with
him, as most of the single men in church are in search of opportunities
for serious relationships. The bonus is that you get to meet someone who
shares the same faith and moral grounding as well. Luckily, there are a
number of churches around Lagos that you visit.
Take a stroll at a private beach
Put
meeting the perfect single guy on the side, visiting the private
beaches or resorts in Lagos can be a rewarding experience on its own.
From La Campagne Tropicana to Kampe Ikare, Atican beach or just Oniru
beach, there are boundless opportunities to run into eligible men.
There
are basically three kinds of guys you will see at the beach: those who
are there alone, those with their group of male friend (their behavior
will mark them out as single) and those who visit with their baes,
girlfriends or wives. The first two are your best bet. Do not feel too
shy to approach them and a strike up a conversation…most love stories
begin with a few rods spoken.
Make your location visible online
A
lot of people in Lagos meet their boyfriends and husbands online via
social media apps like Instagram, Facebook or Snapchat Instamessage. In
fact, this is the latest method of meeting single men in the city.
Social media apps give users opportunities to find others with similar
interests close to them. And so, unless your location is visible it
might be difficult for guys in the area to see you and hit you up. Make
your location visible the moment your feet touch the shores of Lagos and
stay online.
If
you do not have accounts on any of the social media platforms, search
for online dating sites, there are some exclusive to Nigeria and even
Lagos. You can check out profiles and photographs and connect with
whoever appeals to you.
