Hmm but how come most of them r blaming their parents?
I personally blame our culture of elaborate celebration dats difficult for most men to afford. Also, d attitude of ladies jumping about from one man to another, or this reckless attitude of thinking ur still young.

So u saying men don't get married at 28-35 because they can get married to a sisi @ 70? The old man must be wealthy to pull such a feat then cuz a poor man can't.

[bAnyways, what I meant was, the reason why women get married or don't has been overflogged but I can't say same for the men.[/b]

You shouldn't say the same for men dearie.

It is just a man's world.

That's why a man at 50 years can marry a lady of 25 years, money or no money.

You just can't really say so for a woman.

Re: Alarming Number Of Unmarried Ladies (28 - 39 Yrs) by Ch1z0(m): 9:25pm On Apr 23, 2015
I think that the problem is that more and more women are setting very high standards for themselves especially in their career. As such, they'll want to marry a patner who they can place above that standard...

Now, I'm not saying that ladies should limit themselves. But when they set those standards, they should understand that grace differs and some people can't meet their expectations...

I think instead of looking for dudes with big professions and all that, ladies should look for men with good morals, standards, vision and most importantly - a man they can love and are willing to spend their life with.

Thanks...

the major problem here is family setting unreasonable standards for the man their daughter wants to marry. Though I am not against setting standards but there should be a limit to the standards family set and there should be limits to the type of man a woman dreams to marry.


Some women have what we call checklist for the type of man they want to marry but they are so quick to forget that God also has a checklist for the type of husband he has destine for them to marry. In God's plan, your husband is short, in the woman's plan, her husband is tall. In God's plan, your husband is a farmer, in the woman's plan, her husband is an Engineer. So when your plan doesn't meet with God's plan for the kind of man they want to marry, how will the marriage be possible?

There is nothing God cannot do for you so far you stick to his plans for you, no father or mother can stop you from getting married so far the man/woman is God's choice.

Lastly, some women are the architect of their own marital woes. They are too high to maintain, nothing pleases them, it is never enough for them, they have this proud look, their taste is too high, they are very wasteful, they cannot endure circumstances, they complain & nag at the same time, they are very disrespectful, they dress like harlots etc
Thumbs Up..You Nailed It

And why would it be more informative researching on the opposite sex? And don't tell me u fall into the category of women discussed? Cuz I'll so love to hand u a questionaire.

You can read my response to kaboninc, it answered ur question.

And to ur other question, as long as you are a woman, you don't have to be 50 years to be bothered about this thread.

Exactlty,i really don't get when people frown each time they see such topic.It has been there for ages,unless we change it which I doubt.

Even I that was raised with 6 elder brothers were not that controlled,but they tried cheesygrin,thank God for my Dad.


Lmao. grin
Seriously,those ladies are not ready to get married. Imagine financially independent women allowing their parents make decisions for them in 2015.

A cousin of mine who was still residing in Nigeria got married in Sweden and didnt deem it fit to inform her parents until after the wedding. She only just did the traditional wedding in 2013. lol.

It seems 90% of them were deterred by their parents.

Since they desire marriage, I hope they get married.

I like the fact the Bayelsa babe went to meet a matchmaker.

Having irresponsible sons is the more reason to desire a responsible son-in-law. And even if that is their mistake that their sons are irresponsible, why should their daughters pay for their mistakes?



If that is true, then the problem is with men and nobody else. You have just painted a bleak picture of the male gender and perfectly justified why a woman may not choose to get married at all.

One of the reasons why they haven't found any even though they were seeking, is that love is hard to find. This reason must be mentioned. Some people are lucky and find it easy to find the person they love and who loves them back but for most people it is not easy. That's why many people find themselves in unhappy marriages. They marry someone just for the sake of being married, especially in the Nigerian setting where marriage is a do or die affair. Therefore, people marry someone who they do not truly love or someone they love but who does not love them back. This is the reality. Therefore, I admire everyone who is brave enough to say no to marriage until s/he finds the right person even if it takes a lot of time. Too many people mare out of fear and not for love.

i disagree with you on the issue that love is hard to find as i believe it is VERY easy to find love, so long as you are an open minded, social, friendly, outgoing, down to earth person without an unrealistic view of what/how love should be. you meet someone with some of the qualities that you desire/require and if you guys are compatible and spend enough quality time together, love would naturally flow.
