Nigerian singer Tems has discussed her approach to dating, indicating that she has become more intentional about the types of romantic situations she is willing to consider.

She reflected on her experiences with men and how her views on relationships have evolved over time.

Tems mentioned that she has little tolerance for situations where a man makes her wait or does not exhibit genuine seriousness. However, she indicated that she has progressed beyond the point where such experiences would have an impact on her.

“I don’t like it when guys waste my time. But for me, never again. I don’t have that problem anymore. I’ve left the streets; I wouldn’t even say I was ever on the streets.”

Her remarks suggest a more deliberate approach to her personal life, as she emphasized that she is no longer interested in situations that do not align with her current direction.

Tems has generally kept her romantic life private, while continuing to focus on her music and global career, occasionally providing fans with insights into her personal views.
