Your family may be right though but u have ur choice, I have a family friend(girl), she is about 23, she earn good money, she ask me to assist her in her choice of car, though her elder sister(married) was against it and she never wanted me to be involve, becos of dis same reasons, though her bros supported she shud buy d car, so last last I assisted her in getting her Rav4. Then she use to have 1 guy then who is also a worker. To cut d story short, after d car. Few months later, she wit her guy broke up, since then she has been findin it difficult to get a guy, any guy that comes,will just pretend as if dey r for marriage last last after dem don nak tire, dem go discharge.

Kazrem:

If you were her sibling, would you advice her to buy the car?

yes i will

You attract to yourself the type of person you are. If you want to appear broke then you should have an idea the type of men to approach you.

And don't involve family members in your finances. They will demeaning your financial needs for theirs and attempt to augment their lifestyle with your cash.

If getting a car will chase men away, then why are all the single ladies without cars not married yet?

Most of these beliefs being peddled are merely dogmas and fads that are not statistically significant. There are a million broke spinsters as there are successful spinsters.

In fact the number of broke and unmarried spinsters far outnumber those that are successful.

You better go ahead and buy a car if it will make you happy.

What is your own will not pass you by.

Shei na until dem kidnap you inside danfo you go able marray? Buy your car joooooorr nor mind dem. Happy 2016

Why are we so backward in Africa? Cars that are mostly necessity in western world is now likely to be a reason for a lady not to get a suitor in Africa. Even if it's a ferrari what in the world is wrong with that for fhuck sake?
Well, like they say, "a white man make complicated things simple while a black man make simple things complicated"

Sweetheart buy yourself a car. Stay humble. It will get u a better husband. Trust me I'm talking from experience.

Whoever said you should not buy a car will come and ask you to lend him money.When u say no they will be agry that you are selfish.

It totally depends on your kind of person because if you have a good and receptive personality then it wouldn't matter if you get your car.

Truth be told and I'm speaking from experience now, driving in a car will limit the number of guys that will have access to you.

However, it will improve the quality of guys that approach you.

So its quality over quantity. You choose.

This best and most sensible answer on this topic so far. I dash you kiss for this answer.

Buy the car. You need it; don't let sexist thinking cloud your judgement. Any guy that is scared of a single woman owning a car, ain't a real man.

Wats ur definition of quality? because a guy can approach a lady with a car.... d guy must have quality. I beg 2 differ. Unless quality here means guys richer than u re.

It depends on you: if you are ready to marry someone below your social status, I'll advise you NOT to buy the car now so that those men can have access to you. In that case, it means you want to stoop to conquer like the title of a play. However, if you're equally looking for a high class fellow, then go ahead and buy the car. The choice is yours. Good luck!

Getting a car will chase men away from you but without a car you are still single?

I think you know what to do

real men no day for this kind economy my oga

My dear its your life but will tell you to buy things like a land, build a house for rent and avoid things that will bring you out as a high class, high taste lady. honestly when you buy the car the kind of guys that will approach you will mainly be made up of gold diggers who are good at lies. if you doubt me ask LindaIkeji. I have met ladies with mega assets who lived low key till they were married. I also work in a Multinational oil and gas so i know what i am saying. We have a lot of them here. Sow your seed, help the needy, widows and orphans and God will answer you real soon.

dearpreye:


Please, go ahead and buy the car. This is 2015, not 1970!

Live your life to the fullest. Sometimes our greatest enemies are those very close to us. They think they're doing us a favour or that they're protecting us, whereas they're simply keeping us mediocre and average. This, amongst other reasons, is why Africa is still largely underdeveloped; our minds are still pretty underdeveloped.

Any man who's intimidated by a lady's success should go and become successful.

Our society is in so skewed against our women.

Family people wahala too much abeg.

Op I want u to ask yourself why u have worked in a multinational company for 3yrs & yet no husband. Then, check all the advanced single ladies in your organization & try to know why they aren't married. You will agree with me that majority of them own cars.

Let me be frank with u, most ladies who buy car before marriage hardly find suitors. Some ladies buy car with the believe that rich guys will approach them & they later find out that it is not like that most times. You know why? Most guys who own cars use the cars to chase babes who don't have cars because they appreciate them more than girls who own cars.

I know so many beautiful ladies who own cars but no husband. Most of them come to me for prayers in tears. I really pity them. Some of my friends are even begging me to marry one out of several of them working in oil company but the problem is that I don't see love in them. I only see desperation.

Don't do something that will make your friends & family begin to beg men to pls marry u. Pls be wise & patient.

I know of 2 sisters from a wealthy home. Their mum bought them a car each after graduation. The younger one refused to use hers. She parked it at home till she got married & gave it to her husband. The elder sister is prettier but no husband for over 5yrs since she has been riding her big car around.

Op, the choice is yours! Good luck

MissGdope:

yes i will

OK.

Dear girl, I had same issue. My brother advised me not to get one even if I we both worked in multinational companies in the island. I had to save my self the stress of Lagos traffic. Having a car is a necessity and not a luxury in Lagos. U need it

omotohdarajugbogbolo:
Good day fam,

I really need your advice on something.

I am a lady in my late twenties and I work with a multinational company here in Lagos.
This is my third year on the job and I know I need a car now.

Now here's the issue; my siblings think that getting a car is a bad idea. Why? Cos am single.

My beloved brother said it would push men away from me

Please does this not sound myopic? I really don't get it.

House how do you see this cos I feel down right now.

most times ladies seek for advice they already have their take on the issue, my personal thought and observation anyway. But my sincere advice to you is "FOLLOW YOUR HEART"

bettercreature:
You are wrong! it will only increase her MARKET VALUE,if you ever wish to marry a rich,handsome man,buy yourself a car and move to expensive enviroment

so being rich with a bad character is good abi

so she should move to expensive environment abi you re high

Any man that would be intimidated because of your car or your success generally doesn't deserve you.

What is your own opinion about it? I know a lady that sold her car because she wanted to get married, and a few months later she got married to a man who she is a lot richer than. I know another lady that bought a car, a few months later she got married to a man that is richer than her. Never do anything out of fear, buy a car because it will help make things easy for you, a man will come if it is meant to be.

Another thing, it the average or poor men that tell their children no car before a man comes. The rich men will buy cars for their children in school or after uni and these people still get married. If u will get married u will, its not a car that will be the obstacle. Well its your life and ur decision. I got mine sha!. If I know u, I would invite u for my wedding when it's going down. Enjoy
