OP that's the Nigerian mentality for you.
Some women would rather die in the marriage than try to save their necks if need be.
Everybody knows marriage is a wonderful thing.
But when it's so bad that there is no respite in sight and maybe it's even bad to the point of one's life being in danger,won't the sensible thing be a divorce?
Kai I said something like that in one of my threads and it wasn't funny grin
See attacks on moi. Dem wan kill me with insult.
Most were of the mindset that even if your husband is punching you to death,stay there and keep [b]PRAYING[/b]for him to change(while waiting for your death) hehehe.

My dear, it is simple. misery loves company. You have no business being divorced and happy whereas they are married and miserable.
Even double whammy, the husbands that insist their subservient wives not to be associated with divorcees. They know they know the wives might just gain some senses and grow wings.

Marriage in itself na journey, every year we make it, We no the kinda thanks We give to God! Will it make sense for us now to be looking down at others! Some put in even more effort and it doesn't work out. I am convinced that if you are truly happy, you want every other person to be happy. Simples.! Just take the looking down as them being envious in disguise jare.

The looking down on others syndrome is not restricted to divorce women alone. You will be looked down on if you do anything regarded as against the norm of cultural or religious practise.

Like you have been told, give no attention to them. Forget what is in the past, look forward to the happiness and fulfillment ahead. Do you plan to remarry?

pslm23: Happy New Year dear NL folks! I have a burning question that I hope a matured person or persons can shed some light on.

why is that Nigeria women tend to look down on other women who are divorced? In other countries, who cares if you are divorced or married? who cares if you get pregnant one month or one year after marriage? The kind of pressure put on women here is unbelievable! But what irks me to no end is how these hoity toity pompous women treat women who are divorced as if they are going straight to hell or like they are lepers!
I know the Bible frowns upon divorce but the Bible also frowns upon hundreds of things that we are all guilty of committing! As far as I'm concerned, any woman who is bold enough to walk out of an abusive relationship or marriage deserves an award in Nigeria not condemnation!
Then there is the other pressure put on women who are yet to get pregnant after marriage, the way they start getting evil and strange snickering looks from the "fertile" peers barely 6 months into their marriage is absolutely sickening. Not only are they getting pressure from their family (in-laws) but when their neighbors, church women etc start making subtle references as to the state of their flat tummy leaves me to wonder why?

A good looking divorced woman might be a bigger threat than a never married woman. The hating might simply be that married woman sees her as a threat. In Nigeria a divorced woman might be more likely to settle into the second wife role than a single woman especially if the man really wants to take care of her and her kids. I can see why the average Nigerian woman would be very hostile to a divorced woman. As for those that are cruel to a woman that is yet to be pregnant.... well a happy woman would not be worried about what is going on in another woman's womb to the point of being mean about it. She has to have some serious unhappiness in her life and to make herself feel better she points to another woman that she imagines has to be unhappy. At the end of the day people who constantly sit in judgement of others tend not to be happy with themselves. Rather than hold their heads down and feel sad I think divorced women or couples dealing with infidelity issues should walk tall and proud. I am sure it will kill those that just want to see them unhappy but that is one way to change the narrative. You can be happy and divorced. You can be happy and childless.

jennykadry:

Actually lets start it cos that rant up there was so uncalled for...was it not the same reason why I started a thread about NIN's being unnecessarily jealous of the NID's? Read Ypepe's post and tell me it's not filled with so much bitterness and hate...How many NID's go ahead criticising a good marriage? how many times have we made fun of people's marriage? if she is so jealous and needs to leave the shores ofNigeria let her say so and be done with it.

The problem NID's have with nigeria is the lack of good government, the government has refused to favour it's citizens, so why blame citizens that choose to stay where they are well represented and cared for?

Just a few days ago I had a chat to a friend of mine in Nigeria who is unable to afford hospital bills and that made me weep, why should I go back to a country with poor health care system when all I have to do here is go to the hospital spend as many days as I like and come out without paying a dime? why should I go back to Nigeria and settle when ASUU just recently called off a 6 month strike?

The above problems are what we in diaspora are complaining about not some nonsense about married couples in the west. I read stories like Subzidi who is a Nigerian married to a nigerian and living in Nigeria and I admire and respect her marriage. I have sisters who choose to live in Nigeria and are happily married there...IF I and my beloved immediate family refuse to live in Nigeria or come celebrate our marriage in Nigeria, why would another woman born of a woman come in here and chat shyt angry That post of Ypepe reeks of jealousy and hate and hypocrisy and envy and and....freaking damnation angry and this is coming from someone who preaches peace on this section? I am so fvking disappointed angry hypocrisy I say bloody hypocrisy
