There are many eligible men who have no mny to marry. Single women who are doing well should look for one and brush him up, haba. Not every one would be married anyway. Some would marry at an old age, some would force themselves on others and end up divorced. This are sad realities we all must deal with.
No need to fret. What would be would be.

Sometimes, I think our society places too much emphasis on marriage. Marriage is an honourable institution but it's not a do or die affair or the peak of achievement.

charles316: Most people have got no pity for single naija ladies cos most of them spent their prime chasing shadows... Shawarma, Brazilian hair, bold 5. The focused one always get married. If u cant get one man (there are over 3billion men ) to marry u then u ve got a problem.

Thank you. Then I guess by what you said we all have got the problem 'cos at one time or the other we were all single.

One thing that surprised me about how I got engaged is that I had always thought that one must change somethings about oneself to be able to attract a spouse (which might still be true), but I didn't change a thing he just came and proposed and I was so surprised and taken aback. That is not to say that we should not upgrade our character, dressing, career e.t.c if need be but sometimes in the bit to upgrade we change so much that he might not recognize us when he meets us. So my friends sometimes it's better to just be yourself 'cos one man's poison is another man's meat. Did I mention that some people heard about the engagement and went to meet him giving him reasons why he should call it off but he told them that he has made his choice and I know that the God that started it will bring it to pass.

It is not worth it bro

I ain't against brushing a guy up but I have realised he don't appreciate you in the long run

Even if your feeling is true as a lady right at the back of his mind, he will think you are desperate

Life is a risk. Some have done it and it worked for them. Lot's of men want to get married but no resources. If a well to do woman meets a struggling man and they care about each other, let them make it happen.

Bros i am not assuming. I have tried it

I helped him built his CV and sent to different organisations but he thought I because I was earning more and more comfortasble , he wouldnt be able to handle me and left after he got a jb

He didn't even tell me he was attending interviews. When he knew a particular job would click was when he left. He called me later to thank me

Some of them have complex issue.

nwapastor: For some of us, it's not that we are not getting proposals but it's just that they are not coming from the right guys (as per our standard). As for me I'm engaged to be married but I really stayed long on the other side and know how it feels. At a time I closed my face book account 'cos it seemed all I see there are friends and family uploading photos of themselves with their spouses and children. Believe me I may be happy for them but it leaves me depressed. More to come.
Hmmm! You just save me the stress from typing.

It might interest you to know that I've not dropped my panties for any man and by God's grace I have no plan of doing that till I say I do. I'm not desperate to get married even if he leaves (God forbid) no problem I'll continue living my life and serving my God till it pleases him to settle me maritally.

As for 'boys' I've passed that level. I move with 'men'.

Imagine that. Don't mind them jare the day it will happen you'll be so surprised 'cos it might not be by any efforts of yours. I've been in relationships where I did almost everything within my means to make them work yet they didn't. But here I am, not really doing any thing special yet it is working.

Well before you 'encourage' yourselves, let individual single ladies know the context. Single as in self determination to be single or single coming from rejection despite searching. As the case may be, there's what's called Co-Parenting but I doubt our culture will receive it well but as for advanced nations, that's how single ladies go about their business.

Note: Co-parenting isn't the same as just getting pregnant for a guy and 'signing off' the guy.
Re: Single Ladies: Let's Share Our Experiences Here by nwapastor: 4:34pm On Sep 19, 2014
Why is it that when a man likes/loves a woman/lady he often finds a way of communicating it but when he falls out of love he tends to just walk away without any explanation leaving the lady to keep wondering what went wrong? Sometimes the next thing the lady will hear is that he is getting married to someone else leaving the lady speechless (to say the least).

Higher class? On the contrary, i have a lot to learn from you. Why i talked about levels was because i'm single-not married and not dating but i'm not in the about-to-marry class.
