Maybe it is not just about meeting the right partner but also about making the sacrifices one should make in a marriage. Tolerance, compromise, patience , Respect and so many other things involved. I guess the system in the UK makes it easier for women to just work out on the marriage with little effort. I have actually heard some women say that they are better off as single parents. Also there is no extended family there, parents ands in laws to help out with advise when the marriage goes through hard times. Many Nigerians go to the UK and try to adapt to the way of life there. This also has negative aspects, like the attitude towards marriage. as Chaircover mentioned too the jet age and the stress it brings with it. I guess even in Nigeria more marriages are collapsing than some years back. In Nigeria women tend to let the partner get away with allot more than in the UK. The emphasis on emansipation, laws and infrastructures has made it easier for couple to regard marriage as a contract that can. be dissolved easily in a court of law when the parties are no longer compatible. Finally in the UK a woman has a higher chance of getting custody of the kids than in Nigeria. |
