Celebrity content creator GehGeh has sparked conversations online after issuing advice for women regarding relationships, cautioning them never to endure hardship or suffer with any man under the guise of “it will get better.” According to GehGeh, the popular phrase often used by men to convince women to stay during difficult times in a relationship, may never come to pass, and relying on such promises could lead to disappointment and frustration.
In a viral video circulating on social media platforms, GehGeh elaborated on his point, emphasizing that many women tend to hold onto hope, imagining a brighter future with men who are currently struggling financially or emotionally. He explained that this expectation is often based on imagination rather than reality. “As a lady don’t suffer with man. You know why? That phrase ‘e go better, suffer with me’ don’t do it because if you date man with ‘e go better’, it means you are dating your imagination and the expectation where you dey create for your head might not come to pass,” he stated emphatically.
He further advised women to assess their partners based on their present qualities rather than future potential. “Date a man for who he is now, if you come date am for who you think say he go be tomorrow, that tomorrow might not come to pass,” GehGeh said. He stressed that basing a relationship on an imagined future can only lead to unnecessary worry, confusion, and misunderstandings when the anticipated improvements fail to materialize.
Expanding on his counsel, GehGeh highlighted that women should prioritize their emotional well-being and not allow themselves to endure suffering in the hope of change. He concluded by urging ladies to make relationship decisions grounded in reality, stressing that no woman should feel compelled to suffer for the promise of a better tomorrow that may never come. “Ladies should date a man for who he is now, and never suffer with any man,” he added.
Public Reactions and Opinions
The video has since attracted varied reactions from social media users, with some praising GehGeh’s perspective while others criticized him for offering advice despite not being in a committed relationship himself. Whi_rls commented: “Gehgeh don back slide. He don finally stäb boys for back😖.”
Oghale Osagie added a skeptical view, stating: “A guy who is not in a relationship or married is given advice. He isn’t a psychologist, a therapist or a relationship counsellor and he has no experience, he is just shooting blank bullet.”
Assured homes weighed in, pointing out the unpredictability of life: “As una dey listening to all these advice have it in back of your mind not all the rich today will be rich tomorrow, life pass all this overthinking well una dey ooo. Just fine peace and happy ending, it only in Nigeria that all you all think is money, because of una mentality.”
CTFrank voiced fatigue from the ongoing discussions surrounding GehGeh: “Are you guys not tired of this guy already?”
Despite mixed reactions, the video continues to generate discussions among women and men alike, as many reflect on the advice and its relevance to contemporary relationships in Nigeria. GehGeh’s message resonates with those advocating for self-respect, realistic expectations, and emotional well-being in romantic partnerships.
