Okija_juju:


And I still recall telling you that I am not a wife beater.. I don't hit women.. What caused our quarrel was you saying 'Nothing a woman does warrants her being beaten' and I disagreed..

My fiancee knows I will never hit her..

Babzilla: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Ure here again!



YEAH RITE!!!
U AND I BOTH KNOW THAT NO MATTER HOW MUCH A NIGERIAN BABE HAS SHE WILL STILL BE EYEING HER MAN'S LOOT. Gbaaaaaaaam!
BESIDES WHY DO U FEEL THE URGE 2 EXPLAIN YOSELF ON EVERY THREAD MADAM........ OR CAN I CALL U AUNTIE

Shollypopz:
Wife beaters don't go around calling themselves wife beaters, they simly say she did something that warranted beating.
If u don't beleive that a woman should not be beaten by her husband no matter what she does, there's a chance that u'll one day her

Okija_juju: A few reasons why many women are still single at old age;

1. Too Picky: You hear them make silly excuses like 'He isnt tall enough', 'He isnt handsome enough', 'He snores in his sleep', blah! blah!

2. Tribalism: 'I would have married him, but he is from ...', 'My parents will never allow me marry a ........... man'.

3. Bad Character: Yes! Many women have very terrible habits and traits that instead of them working on changing it, they expect a man to put up with it..

4. Money: YES o!! Todays women are not like our mothers who got married to our parents when they didnt even have bicycles. All you see now are girls that want a man who has already made it in life. I recently heard a story where a girl told her boyfriend that they would have to move out of his small 2 bedroom that he managed tto build and rent a more befitting house.. How sad. Sadly, most men like that already have that one girl who has been with them from the beginning and all these other women would ever be to them is a mere booty call.

5. Fast Life: Many girls want to live the glamorous fairytale lifestyle.. You know, first class trips to Dubai, weekend at the spa, shopping in milan, walking all the rad carpet events in town. So in as much as they want to be married, they are conflicted as to which life they really want to live.. In the end, they realize that they cant have it all and they have missed out on marriage which outlasts red carpets.

6. Poor Home Training: I know a girl who is so lazy, she cant cook, clean or even do her own laundry let alone another mans.. When we speak, she says she would employ a cook and househelps. I wished her goodluck as a guy like me can never be married to her.. I love my home cooked meals (like most guys), enjoy my privacy (so no househelps) and would like to know that my wife is capable of running and keeping my home in my absence..

7. Western influence and Women Liberation: Most of our girls in their bid to be Ajebutta have taken it beyond wear Brazilian hair, nails and eyelashes, speaking in western accent to imbibbing western cultures.. I heard a girl say all she wants is a guy who will impregnate her and walk away. She wants to be a single moter.. Something that in all of our various cultures remains a taboo.. Sadly, it almost never happens for them and even when it does, society is a cruel biitch as you will become the gist of town and would be avoided by many. A widoa with kids is better than a 'single mother' in the context I'm putting it.

Guys please add yours..

sashaa:
15-20 men? Dont be too quick to have an opinion based on sheer assumptions. Fact is things dont happen for evryone the same way. Some ladies from their late teens till late 20's may get like just 3 suitors(..or less) while for some, they wouldnt even be able to count.

sashaa:
true,
but what about those that wern't nasty, wern't snobbish, but just found themselves dumped. The years run fast, my friend. Lets take a scenario, a girl met n fell in love with a nice guy at 22, they date for about 3years, with the intention of getting married (..d guy already proposed during that time), dude starts acting up but still assures her of his love when she confronts him abt his attitude. Another year goes by and he outrightly dumps her. She's 26 now n so heartbroken.she starts to lick her wounds hoping to meet someone better. The years are slippn by n so far she has just been meeting unserious dudes who aint ready to settle down but ar just after fun. Next u know, she's clocks thirty still single. And someone says 'single at 30?' what has she been doin all these years when her mates were getting married.smh

legendprac: I personally believe that for every lady out there that is aged and still unmarried, that there are series of mistakes she made with respect to men when she was younger, thinking beauty and age will always be on her side...
Fellow nairalanders, what's your take on that?

Omo Alata:

A woman was desperate to have a child for her husband. It wasn't happening. She went here and there for solution. She was taken to one babalawo who promised that she would have a child. However, there was a condition. She should choose between her having loads of children or her 1st born never having children. The woman chose the former and went on to have 5 children. Her 1st born struggled to get married. A man would come, get far with her, and suddenly disappear. This happened on and off. When the woman was 59 she went to a pastor who told her the above. She asked her aged mother who wept and confirmed it.

How is this the single lady's fault?

Da gr8tosyn: What do you have to say to Old guys with no life direction...Not engage, or in any serius relationship and everything seems to be well in their eyes...Old ladies have there separate challenges like guys also do except the fact that marriage is too expensive for nowadays guys so getting hooked up is a big deal even for those that wish to settle down. Nigeria Economy is directly and indirectly affecting everyone of us, take it or you leave it.

Babzilla:

WOOW CHK THIS OUT
IM SURE THIS IS THE PLOT OF ONE NAIJA MOVIE ( YORUBA PRECISELY) COS WE'VE COME A LONG WAY FROM THIS STONE AGE THINKING. BABALAWO MY NUTS.

Obinoscopy: @OP
Not true! Not all aged unmarried women are to be blamed for their condition.
Some ladies are not lucky with guys. I know of a lady, very nice and beautiful at heart. She's very caring and understanding but she's unlucky with guys. The guys she date either cheats on her or just disappear entirely.
She's a great girl to be with, I'd have married her straight away but she way too old for me (6 yrs older actually)
Her only misgiving is dat she's a sickler. Now tell me, is being anemic a fault of hers?

Shollypopz:
SHUT UP JO!!
To marry na by force.....I don't give a shit about his money, I was just messing wiv him.
Oversabi!

bittyend: Viewing this topic based on the society I was raised in, I think men are to be blamed. Young men (esp. black men) need to start taking education/career seriously. And start thinking about their careers and how to attain a higher/better status in the society. There are many good and successful black women out there who're single - not because they've bad attitude/character but because their 'status' intimidates most men.

You can't blame a woman who's a barrister for wanting to get married to a barrister, or someone who has a higher status. Women have raised the 'bar', men need to do the same, by meeting them there, or strive to get higher than the 'bar'. No one wants to get married to someone who's below them - it's a new world!!

obadiah777: folks castigating those who dont voluntarily surrender themselves to prison sentence. like marriage is this big wonderful awesome thing. the grass is always greener on the other side. those who are married would love to be single and those who are single would love to be married. hence we are all unhappy. no winners. all losers in the game of life.
