She had a Degree but not sense.

Too bad for her.
She is living her life for others.
You can still be happy being single till the right man comes......one that won't batter you to death in an impromptu marriage!

Hope her parents are happy now...

When you ignore people who give you negative vibes, life becomes better and beautiful. She should have ignored and stay away from them. People who got married for a wrong reason are getting burnt daily mtcheeew....

even at 50 a lady can still get married n enjoy. all d benefits of marriage

This is so so sad! Smh
I seriously think dis menace is only prevalent in Africa where people still think ur social worth is enhanced when u gets married besides the fact that We Africans because of the failures of our various national governments to provide Us with the social welfare sees children as an insurance for old age.

Perhaps, people tends to look down on individuals who haven't gotten married as a less serious person. More so, let me shock you guys here that by the time We got our independence from the British in 1960 Nigeria's population was the same with them now looking back you can see that we have tripled our population to theirs in less than a century which clearly indicates the fact that We equates sex and marriage over pursuing the real things that matter in life like self-development,research,etc. Most people shouting go and marry does it out of jealousy and strife because they sometimes/most times always looks for something to de-shine you having seen u radiating happiness. Africa need to learn!

A fool at 40 is a ........

D pressure on d female folks concerning conjugal matters are nerve wrecking. It is further compounded by bad economy (most guys are not financially ready for commitment and most girls dnt hv d time to wait in hope).



If I was a female, I wud hv probably exploded by now...cnt imagine adding marriage pressure to all these issues in my mind.


Finally, I think ladies should begin to stay alone like guys do. Dt cud reduce parental pressure.

Wrong move, It has to be said. You shouldn't live your life to please others..

She is a ...... make i no talk, rubbish

Only cowards commit suicide! That said, marriage is not for everyone. Just like religion, it should be a personal thing.

That you are not married yet, does not make you less of a human being. Marriage is good, but it is not a solve all or be all thing.

False. A lady at 50 can't have children something that is an integral part of marriage.

Marriage is a trap. Don't get snared for life because of 'what will people say'.

Yet women will want us to believe that they can do without us.

What was she doing till she clocked over 40

Small girl with big god?

What's the importance of mentioning she had a degree?

Half story so I can't say anything.

Some parents sha
Am jst 23 nd mum is already hinting on marriage
Me dat still want to enjoy my singlehood till am 28
Who marriage help?

Wonders shall never end, Who do her parents want to marry her ?

some of our problem is dat men who are of age and wealthy instead of marrying women with little age difference. They tends to marry teenagers of eighteen and nineteen with that their stupid notion that women grow old faster than men. Nonsense. Like the fireman man in his thirties marrying someone that is eighteen while there are women in their mid twenties and late twenties

African culture is flawed

This can't happen in the west

is a pity

can you advise your beloved brother to marry a woman of 40 years ?

We are in 2018 not 1818. Women even older than 50 can have children. Though I'm not in support of anyone having children in that scam called marriage.

Foolish woman. I hope she gets an husband in the order side.
