Dont mind onyinye, what do you expect from an inexperienced girl?

Here we go again!

TOH:

Oprah isnt always right. It's good to be rich though. lol

Had to step back and laugh at this one. i give up with the guys. they don't want a wife but a second mother.

@david

davidylan:

shhh i think i've seen her, don't scare her away.

she wont need me to scare her away. all she has to do is read your posts and watch her fly like eagle.

Thanks for finally smiling in your pic, alagolo

His posts have been better than alot of tripe I've read on this board, onyinye.

i think it always happens the other way round.

marriage is not for self-discovery.  It is for growth of what was already discovered in self pre-marriage.

there is probably a full moon out. just wait until another day and see a complete 180

Lol david if someone were to read that incorrectly they would actually think I am 35 and alone with just cats as my companions

E jo ooo

I am just 18 like every other girl on NL

onyinye2:

no because yal want a wife to treat you like your mother did. how when she doesnt love you in that way. a mom treats you in that way because she loves you like that. so how can you expect your wife to do the same??

Gibberish!!!
Your statement was pointless
That's what Toyin said just now, but in a polite way

i dont preach in one and two sentenses, i write a book when i preach

TOH:

Negro_Ntns:

I am like so lost here. .plz dnt pull me into y'all attractions!

sweet 18s

@eldee

if they are so pointless why do you comment on them?? yeah whatever bro, this is a never ending arguement. it will continue to go on.

I don't think its hard to find someone to marry. It's more difficult to find the right one though.
So if you're really desperate to marry, just marry the next guy who will propose to you. don't worry if you might divorce him 2 yrs later. At least you got married.

banned were we?

Dakore, thats living the social expectations.  Thats a default!  Good is not acceptable when you dream to be the Best.  I believe, going by the responses on the thread, that the cultural expectations is a burden on all of us but moreso on women.

the culture dictates whatage bracket is ideal for marriage
you have the exhorbitance that go with the rituals itself
young couples with limited resources
then in some cultures - the man is expected to sponsor his brothers and sisters or some relative through school - denying his wife and children the best opportunity at quality of living that his earnings can afford

so many things wrong,

the silence was a time-out lmao

Negro_Ntns
yeah I agree with you and that's what I was trying to point out.
one shouldn't do things just for the sake of doing it or because everybody else expect them to do it.

Wish I had something better to contribute to this thread,

The men are there but the truth is that girls sometimes could allow their pride get the better of them and so, before they realise it, it's getting late.

seconded

and i will like to add that the rate of bad grls out there with an alien mentality is just too alarming.
women have turned this world upside down. commitmnt to men now look like a death warrant.

This same article has been posted again. Make una nor go break una head because of marriage ooo.

As for me I go talk wetin I don already talk.

If you are a man or a woman who knows that one day you'll like to be married then start preparing for it as soon as you can. Don't date for dating sake but always date with purposes for the future. Sometimes when we are young we want to experiment, well that's game for players. Don't waste time unnecessarily. I am sure if you are ready to date, you are also capable of knowing what love, infatuation, lust and crush are. Differentiate between them and always go for LOVE! This way, there is a guarantee that that person might become your future spouse.

Remember people meet their life partners at a tender age.

Scarcely true

Na you know. It's not my fault if you spent your adolescence jumping from a girl to the other instead of focusing on true love!

I have never said I did. I just said some are lucky to meet their life partners at a very young age. People date for 8-10 years before tying the knot! It's just a matter of focusing on your main purpose.

If you wan marry, don't play around and plan to cool down in your middle 20s because then you'll have to start afresh and this is something you are meant to do earlier. With no epxperience of what a true relationship is, how can you think of managing something so hard like marriage?

Just know that the longer the dating period, the higher the likelihood of one person dumping the other
