Why I can’t date, marry fellow actor – Inem Peter

ACTRESS and filmmaker, Inem Peter, has opened up on why she cannot be romantically involved with any of her male colleagues in the entertainment industry.

In a recent interview,  the screen diva shared her candid opinion about relationships, marriage, and the qualities she desires in a man.

When asked about the kind of men that appeal to her, Inem Peter revealed her preference for tall, humble, and generous men, adding that great sexual chemistry is a vital ingredient in any relationship she would consider.

“I like tall guys, humble, he has to be a giver ooo, then sex is very important. A stingy, deceitful, or selfish guy turns me off. A good sense of humour is a turn-on for me, not sarcasm though. I also like a man who is honest; tell me the truth no matter how hard it might seem,” she added.

Despite the abundance of handsome actors in Nollywood, Inem made it clear that she has no interest in dating or marrying a fellow actor

“Ah colleague ke? I beg ooo. I can’t,” she exclaimed.

When probed further on her reasons, the filmmaker explained that her years in the industry have taught her to separate reality from acting.

“Before now, maybe I would have considered that, but coming this far in the industry, I can’t think of settling with a Nollywood actor. It’s a no-no for me. The very handsome actors that I would have considered are too talented that you can’t tell when they are acting or being real.”

On the growing fear of failed marriages in the entertainment industry, Inem admitted to having her reservations but remains optimistic about giving marriage a chance.

“Yes, I am oh, but I am definitely giving marriage a chance soon. Keep your fingers crossed,” she concluded.
