Here are the wise proverbs shared by Pete Edochie during his appearance in Mr. Macaroni’s skit, where he comes to seek Mr. Macaroni’s daughter’s hand in marriage:
1. “The wolf on the hill is not as hungry as the one climbing the hill.”
2. “A man who hangs around a woman for a long time without saying anything ends up fetching water at her wedding.”
3. “No matter how dark a room is, a man can always find his way to a woman’s breast.”
4. “Anybody who complains that the soup is too small for the Eba cannot handle greatness.”
5. “Only a mad dog barks at its owner.”
6. “No matter the intensity of the bushfire, the chameleon will always walk like a king.”
7. “Eat a mad man’s food the moment you see him relax, because if the madness returns, you won’t get access to him anymore.”
While appearing on Mr. Macaroni’s skit, Chief Pete Edochie said that a man who hangs around a woman for long without saying anything to her ends up fetching water at her wedding. This is true, especially for those who think spending on a woman without telling her your intentions will suffice.
If your intention of being around her is romantic, make it clear as early as possible before you start spending money on the romantic ideas you have in your head.
If you tell her your mind and she says both of you need to take things slow while she thinks about it, there is no problem. Hold on to your kind gestures so you won’t say she played you.
“But you are like a brother to me” only happens when a man is unclear about his intentions. You will be paying house rent and receiving only hugs while you wait for her to change her mind. But another man is doing all the things she told you she has stopped doing till marriage.
And if she says no to you, respectfully leave her alone.
