Former presidential aide Reno Omokri has condemned men who cry over women.
Reno revealed via Twitter that when a man cries over a woman who leaves him it is interpreted as a sign of weakness.
He wrote: “When a man cries over the death of loved ones, he gains respect. But if he cries because a woman left him, or rejected his proposal, he projects weakness. How can you cry because of a girl? Yes, Christ wept. But where was He was when He wept? At Lazarus’s funeral”
However, a follower who did not agree with Reno stated that when a good woman leaves a man it is difficult not to cry, stressing that men are also humans.
Replying to the follower Reno advised that when a good woman leaves, a man simply needs to find a better woman.
He wrote: “Dear @Darlington_blog, If a good woman leaves you, that is not enough reason to cry. Think of it this way: If you have $3.5 billion, and you lose $1 dollar, would you cry? There are 3.5 billions other women on Earth. Many of them will also be good. Instead of crying, go and find another one! In fact, don’t go and find another one. Rather, go and find a better one.
“Develop yourself to the extent that it is women that should cry at the thought of losing you. Stop chasing them. Go and chase success. By the time you have a good command of business, coupled with self control, and have made money your servant instead of your master, no good woman will leave you!
“But when you are so clingy and needy, and always kowtowing to her, and professing love, and writing poems, and following her around like a puppy, you will make it impossible for her to respect you, and she will pack her kaya and look for a real man who knows that he is the head in the relationship.’’
