Being Too Independent Makes Men Run Away From Me by Threesha(f): 9:38am On May 30, 2022
From DM

Being too independent or educated isn't a crime nor is it my fault. its painful sometimes when I realise men don't want to have anything to do with me all because of that,

One even said he would feel threatened if ever we get married because I would be bringing more to the table than him,

Another said he won't even stress himself to work because he knows he can't compete with me,

Another said I will become arrogant when we get married because once a woman is too educated she becomes another thing.

Is it a crime to be independent, educated and well to do?

Most independent and educated Nigerian women don't usually have sense. Their independence is their curse.

it's all about your true personality...money doesn't make one bad,it only brings out the true character in you......be humble whether Rich or poor...if you find a good man,he will love and respect you and you in turn will love and respect him too.... IT'S ONLY A MAN THAT WANTS TO MALTREAT HIS WIFE THAT'S AFRAID OF HER WEALTH CUS MOST RICH WOMEN WILL NOT ALLOW A MAN TREAT THEM LIKE TRASH... MOST WOMEN TOLERATE ILL TREATMENT CUS THEY'RE NOT FINANCIALLY STABLE TO MOVE ON... nobody wants and deserves to be treated like trash

This is how some of you misconstrue facts and leave in fool's paradise while expecting miracles to happen.

No man is intimidated by your being independent. It's your attitude towards being independent that drives men away.

The blunt truth is that once a typical Nigerian lady feels she's financially OK i.e independent, she sees any man coming her way as a parasite who wants to leach on her even when such men come with the noblest of intension.

No decent man wants to be seen as dependent on his woman, so most times they perceive your disdain for average men from afar and keep away from you, thus leaving you with the real gamers who are masters in scamming you.

I saw this quote somewhere
men don't like strong women because then they are expected to act like a MAN with women like that

Independent women only intimidate weak men.

It depends though. Why would anyone want that when what really count in life is reality? At the end of the day, no matter where in the world you are, people are people, cities are cities and life is life. Everyone has to make money, eat, sleep and live somewhere.

Re: Being Too Independent Makes Men Run Away From Me by Emmanuel909090: 2:30pm On May 30, 2022
That's true because, you are going to be divorce oriented.

Being independent is good, but most married women who reach such height tend to disrespect their husbands and see no need for a man.

But, if you show the humble and respectful side of you, you will definitely find a man that will stay.

For a real man, a woman who has more resources will make him challenge himself to up his game, and become even more resourceful.
That being said, there's no big deal in a woman being dependent. If a man is strong physically, emotionally stable, intelligent, courageous, loving and spiritually sound, so far he is not financially handicapped, he will gain the woman's respect.

Beautiful women are getting married week in, week out. But here you are deluding yourself because you think you have some coin.

If you like don't humble yourself and look for a dick to suck.

Fucking bastard!

Those men are ass#ole...Me that the only reason I will marry is when I find an independent woman. Having a parasite of a woman in this economy who will still cheat on you is a no no for me.

I say why pay hell a lot for used good when you can get original, brand new for 1/100 of the asking price.
If I'm making 500K+ or 1M+, I'd rather go for a girl that will always cost < 50K than go for a girl that's 500K.
It's basic economics.

Remember: Women always want you:
- to make more money than them
- be stronger and more confident
... the list is endless

Congrats! You've outbid yourself out of the market. You've become the man you want to marry.

Forget all this motivational talk. Let's be real, Nigerian women are materialistic and once most become well off than most men they start thinking they can control whomever they are dating or have more say in any issue. Any man who thinks he can hustle up and compete with her is in for a rude awakening when he's unable to meet up. Moreso you've now turned a home which is supposed to be the man's solace into a game of chess with one partner trying to outdo the other, I doubt such unions last as there's no contentment.

I have a rich auntie in Abuja that always complains about been un married but won't give an average man a chance to date her grin. Most financially buoyant ladies are the caused of their problems.
