To my best of knowledge exposure can make or mar ladies of this generation, issue of environment and family back ground is a strongly influence in the Life of Ladies, making them to end up being Single parent; therefore Single Parent for example could easily make all female children grow up without fatherly love, atmosphere and believing it's interesting, and best to live as a single lady.

More so, it is not common for you to see a single lady at over 30years of age in most good homes where both parent exist. Please how do we correct the insanity of so many overdue (for marriage)single ladies and single parent in this part of the world, I strongly advice young ladies deviate from their mother’s believe( situation and condition) and come out different from the ways they are trained...?

Please what is your take on this topic?

Westernization and especially influence of the media has helped to create this.Also I think that the long years spent in sch also contributes to delayed marriage....But I'LL LIKE TO STATE THAT EVERYONE likes a happy home,nice and caring husband and good children.Nothing on earth replaces this but many dont eventually have it...This singlemess can be curbed by re-orientation and upholding of our culture.

If u are above 30 and u still single pls don't settle for less.I know it is easier said than done but what is the use of getting married and u re unhappy.
Pls don't let society pressurize u into making a wrong choice.
'Why are there high rate of divorcee and single mothers' are threads that people should open on NL.

You all have made good points, but to my best of knowledge, Ladies that fall within these age range deserve no preferential attention and should not be reckon with in their plight because it's weakling that put blames on others for failure. Looking for or waiting for the best? It won't come if you are not make one! Aside from up growing influence from single parent; Greed, Over exposure, pomposity, not God fearing and not following God's will for their life put them in the mess...therefore any lady above 30yrs of age should seek the face of God and change their ways(hypocrisy, pretence and fake life).May God help we men who seriously want and look forward to the better woman to marry.

Peer pressure, family influence, competition,financial consideration, religious background, pastor say so factor.
mostly the main reason is indecision on the part of the lady.

Seriously, u jst gave d world a new meaning of "fantasy"

So u actually tink getting married to a particular guy means u are settling for less.

Until marriage is viewed in d rit direction, d way God designed it originally, we wud keep getting it wrong.

Status, height, standard of living, colour, race, among odas, shd neva be d yardstick for marriage

U jst echoed wat d OP said.

Oops am seeing this late.I said it,most people on NL have been programmed to think one way.So immediately u see less,it means settling for a rich guy.
Fine,money is an important ingredient but is relative as far basic necessities of life is met.
Now,at this stage due to alot of influence,people get marry for the sake of I want to get marry.When I wrote 'less' I mean settling for a guy that is abusive,a wife beater,irresponsible etc.A guy u know u wont settle for if not for the pressure.

I think the meaning of your less is understandable, but won't be acceptable to some many guys...because 'less' connote not being able to handle a relationship via riches, and all other factors without attitude you just mentioned. A man that will beat his wife would not be known mostly from beginning until later in marriage, only God will help ladies...I advice ladies should be more realistic, God fearing and decisive rather waste their expensive time in singles and regret it in sooner future, I don't subscribe to someone being a serious born again at 34yrs of age because of marriage, when you have flexed and flirt all years back thinking a rich guy somewhere is coming for you, and despising the days of little beginning.

Over-priced goods in the shop, while forgetting they are giffen goods.

This leads to frustration, no interest by correct men, wild search for cures(pastor, self-help books,power-enta etc...), then out of severe desperation...dem land on 419 guys lap 4 a swift descent into Wahala-ville.

You are right anywayz... And like someone rightly said, they tend to be more materialistic than realistic... I think that defines why most remain unmarried at such age...
