Why Our Girls Find It Difficult To Get Husbands These Days by Pilotman(m): 10:51am On Sep 08, 2013
The purpose of this thread is to try to bring to our senses the reasons why our girls are finding it difficult to get husbands. It is not meant to be an abusive thread, but where we can share our honest submissions, perhaps learn from each other & show some understanding.

I will begin by categorising these reasons into 3: economical, cultural, & attitudinal factors.

Economically, our guys are often financially handicapped. Not that a guy wouldn't want to settle down early but our economic system doesn't accomodate him. Things are very difficut now, economically. His 'meager' income can't just support such plan at the moment. he just need more hustling & our girls aren't always ready to wait.

Culturally, our marital process is damn too expensive! From the 'Introduction', to the 'List', to the 'TM', to the 'Wedding'. Some families think that just b/c their daughter is 'educated', they shd reap all the returns in one day. For a young guy(graduate) that is just starting life, where will he get all the money from?

In terms of attitude, I think most of our girls are so materialistic. They want go with the latest fashion, phones, etc. No girl want to struggle or hustle with the guy. She just want a ready-made husband. She wants 'manna' to fall from heaven'. Most of them are always in competition of looking more classic than the other. But they will never be industrous, enterprising & goal oriented - just waiting for 'mr right' to come around. For Christ's sake, you shd have a life goal & pursue it with passion, then along the way you'll get to meet him.

Pls am not attacking our girls: just candid opinions that can help reorientate our mindset.

Feel free to add yours. Over to you...

Pls dear, don't get me wrong here. Am not saying peanut shd be fixed for a bride price. The fact is that some tribes & some families are taking this thing too far. It's pure greed. All fingers are not equall. The mere fact that 'A' paid N5 million for a bride price doesn't mean B must do like wise.

Personally, am a very good cook. I took 5 star meals. But it'll surprise you to know that some of our girls don't even know how to cook! I've seen many of them. All that they know is going round the eatries, but tell them to prepare that same thing in the house, & you'll be ashamed. And I don't support pre-marital sex either.
Our girls, you need to work on yourselves, skill wise. It's not all about polishing & packaging the outside, you must work on the inside too.

When you were supporting him to become what he is, what were you doing with yourself? Did you also try to build yourself up? Did he try to support you to chase your dreams in return?

A man that would make a good husband would encourage to improve your life as his own gets improved. That's how you know a man that won't walk away.

Don't blame the man for your problems, blame yourself.

As long as the deal is not signed yet (even after signing sef) do not completely believe it will be.

That also works in business

That's the same thing that happen to guys that spend their hard earned money to train their girls in sch or even establish them in biz, only to get dumped without any justifiable reason!

Am not trying to justify this height of wickedness. But we shd all use our conscience. Don't do to others what you wouldn't want them to do to you!

Another classic problem of people having personall issues. Must you sponsor someone with the hope that you would end up with them?

If you want to do anything for anyone, do it cos you want to help and don't expect anything in return else you are in for a long and strong thing

Guys always complain no matter what.
Scenario one-A struggling guy marries a stuggling wife,d wife supports him and all,he becomes successful,and he realises he has so much money to chase everytin in skirts,and complains his wife is not successful.
Scenario two. The woman becomes more successful than her husband,den he complains dat she's not submissive anymore,she's too career oriented,bla bla bla.
Even when they are both equally successful,the husband will till say,stay at home and take care of my children,rme. Later they'll say ladies are confused.
