Yvonne Nelson describes Nigerian men as liars


Yvonne Nelson is not holding her tongue when it comes to her past relationships which have largely been with Nigerian men whom she says can


 “LIE FOR AFRICA” The Ghanaian actress
who graces the cover of the latest issue of Genevieve Magazine let it all out in an
interview with the mag where she talked about her relationship with Iyanya, Ice Prince and being in love.
Let’s start with what she had to say about Ice Prince who reportedly had dated the actress, I wasn’t in a relationship with Ice Prince; he
was just a friend to me. I don’t understand the kind of attention he was trying to draw to himself by claiming we had a relationship. If he wanted to say the truth, why didn’t he just
say it from the beginning? All along he’d been saying that we’re friends and all of a sudden he turns around to claim that it was more than a friendship. C’mon! Read more after the jump Iyanya with whom she had a messy & public
breakup We did have a relationship. I loved him at a point. It just didn’t work out.
Would she date him again?
Never! It’s like eating your vomit. No way! It’s not happening ever. As a matter of fact I’m not interested in anybody in the arts, because it is not the right place to invest time and emotions. A lot of entertainers have so much on their table, so they would not give the
real thing. I know my values; I am loyal and straightforward, but a lot of entertainers are not like that. They would just lie to you and waste your time. That is because, like pilots,
entertainers go around a lot. In every country a pilot goes to, he can decide to have a wife or
girlfriend.
So they can actually lead like a hundred
different lives and none of these women will
know.
Her experience with Naija men & who she will
date next
I don’t know yet. I can’t say I want a
Nigerian, or a Gambian or a Cameroonian. When
it happens, it happens. But Nigerian men can
lie. Nigerian guys can lie for the whole of
Africa. They will come with all the lies because
they know that women respond to the things
they hear. The lies are just so crazy. And I’m
not some 19 year-old who just wants to have
fun. I’m not in that place anymore. So I’m
taking my time to get it right.
She really misses being in love
I miss the late night phone calls, and the
never-ending text messages. I miss that
strong sense of desire that exists between
two people who can’t get enough of each
other. I miss that rush of adrenaline, the
weakness at the knees and that joy that makes
you laugh even when there’s nothing funny. I
just miss loving someone and being loved in
return.
What she’s learnt from her previous
relationships
Don’t believe the hype. Don’t believe all the
things men say. A man who is all-se-xual from
the very beginning is a no go area; he just
wants to jump into bed into you. If a man truly
loves you, and is ready to be with you, he will
be there for you. Relationships are much more
beautiful when it starts as a friendship. So you
are able to goof around with the person. I love
goofing around. I love to be myself and do
funny videos. That’s why people think that
John Dumelo and I have a thing, because John
is such a perfect friend.
