At What Age Is Being Single Awkward? by kstadaura: 9:09pm On Oct 21, 2015
There are people when you tell them you are single they will never believe you,they use to say at your age its impossible to be single.

So guys is there age limit of being single?

at age 40 and you are still single...you need to spend 50 days and nights on the montain
Re: At What Age Is Being Single Awkward? by Nobody: 9:17pm On Oct 21, 2015
Actually, there is no definitive age or limit as to when being single becomes awkward.

I would say it all depends on the individual and how his/her ideas about "being single" are influenced by society and cultural environment in which he/she lives in.

Please speak for yourself. This is just your opinion.
Not everyone thinks the way you think.

The fact that someone is over 40 and isn't married doesn't mean that the person is in need of special prayers, except of course the person wants to desperately get married but hasn't.

Just as i stated earlier, everyone has different views and ideologies about life and about relationships and as such can choose to marry at whatever age they like or not to marry at all.

It's just that most of us Nigerians have been heavily influenced by our cultural and societal ideas and due to that have been streamlined to think in one particular pattern.

I don't think it's awkward or even eyebrow raising to be single at any age, because many factors contribute to why someone may choose to be single for the time being. What I find odd are those who monkey jump from one relationship to the next without taking a down time to reflect & just breathe. Some people do feel empty without relationships though & can't even begin to comprehend that there are some people who do just fine without being in a relationship. So maybe the people who think you're too old or whatever to be single, are the relationship co-dependant types. Don't let them make you doubt yourself because you're actually doing it the correct way. If dating just for the sake of being boo'ed up works for them, then that's on them. You do you.

Nothing like sweet pain. That is just delusion.

You can have a happy life if you want.

Parents do not determine how good your life would be. If you work hard in your early days your later would be good. That is what I mean. I know that we do not choose who we are or where we come from. But you can choose how you want to spend your life (good or bad).

But like you said, I won't understand. Make me understand

You surprised me sweerie! Sounding level headed this time, what happened? cheesy

Anyway,let me explain myself like you'd requested wink

My definition of happiness is not limited to having the wealth. Happiness is when you can have and possess the everlasting bliss. When you won't have to worry about wanting for anything. When you won't have to be sad cos no single thing will make you sad. When everything is just as the way you want it to be.... Now, that sounds delusional . Yes or yes? smiley

So, my point was even if you're running away from marriage just cos u fear that your peace and bliss will be stolen from U, then, you're as good as running away from life cos life even if you have the wealth of Mansa Musa and the Power of Queen Elizabeth 1 won't be worry free overtly . You dig me now?
