Popular Nollywood actress, Bayray McNwizu, has said that taking the first step in a romantic relationship is totally acceptable for women.

In an interview with Saturday Beats, the movie star said so while urging more women to show interest in the men they love without despairing.

The film Diva stressed that women need to be open about their goals as there are situations where a man may not notice the clues a woman gives about her intentions.

She said;

“There are pros and cons when it comes to women ‘shooting their shots.’ If one does not want to waste one’s time, just find out what is working. It is always about knowing where to apply the gauge, knowing when to proceed, how fast to move, and when to stop. These things are so important. If one likes somebody as a woman, knows how to proceed, and knows how fast one can take action.

Also, know when to stop because one cannot afford to look desperate. A woman needs to have a healthy self-concept about herself and know that she is a queen. If a woman wants to be in a man’s life, that woman has to bring a lot of value to the table. If the man cannot see that, then the woman should help him. If the man is interested, he will chase the woman. If he is not, then both the man and the woman can settle for friendship. It’s even more valuable to have friendships that can blossom into other things as opposed to immediate romantic relationships.”
