Yes, I agree! but the Idea of not Needing a man Entirely is ridiculous, like that fella asserted your mails might be delivered my a man or your coffee made buy a man or your doctor might be a man (I meant in that context)



Men/women Will always need each other not nercerssarily in a Marriage, romantic relationship terms.

I have alot of female friends, I am not in a romantic relationship with them.

Where did you get your statistics of Most divorces been initiated by women? undecided

Jeez, look at the high level of pains displayed by manboys on this thread, a woman is successful and independent, but they are pained cos she's not married, I've come to notice that guys that say rubbish about independent women only hate the fact that they are way above their level, they see women like that as threat to their dwindling manliness, these are the same guys that will insult broke ladies asking for stipends, confused hypocritical lots.

I get your point perfectly. My first thought was: Why do you brag about materialistic things? It is not my style and I don't like it. It's snobbish. I would even say that money can't replace love and affection so I don't see the connection either. However, I knew people would jump on the thread telling everyone how to live their lives acting as if all married ladies are happy and fulfilled when we all know that the reality is very different. Unfortunately! My point is that happiness does not depend on your relationship status. A relationship and single life can make you happy or miserable. And marriage was not invented to make people happy in the first place by the way. This romantic notion of marriages is a modern invention that has led to many disappointments. This is why the divorce rate has been on the rise.
Absolutely!



Brilliant Comment, makes alot of sense. I couldn't Agree more.

one of my gfs told me the same thing about not getting married, after a year she started asking me when I'll propose... lol telling a man you dont want to get married, that is exactly wast 9 out of ten men want to hear.. i wish i find a girl that would be serious about it.. just relationship mo marriage grin






One of your gfs.

So u need more, you will be fucvking without staying committed.

And staying committed, I'm not talking about marriage.
Just be committed and make up your mind. This is whom I want to be with.
Because when marriage is mentioned Nigerian families tend to see it as a way to either oppress the wife coming in or a way of controlling the couples life. That's one aspect of marriage have seen happen most times.

So let's say stay committed to one babe. Choose one gurl, amongst your numerous gfs and just be committed.

At least all the other gfs u have are not clamouring u marry them, nah

lol

She is happy?

cos she is smiling?

So? Are you 100% happy even with your so called married status? And you can't Buy anything you want?

My dear, she's really happy yes! Because some of her age mates that are married with responsibilities that they can't really take care of are dying of bp. So where's the happiness in that.

As for those of you saying menopause, look, our first born is 43 and still looking 35 evencafter 4 children and had to even do family planning after the last child who is 4yrs old now. More still want to come but hubby said no! So she gats to tie womb. Why she never menopause?
Its sick that most people who claim to be learned here keep shouting menopause at any lady in her mid and late 30s, even 40s. Gone are the days. It because you people dont research and update yourselves about the latest happenings that is why you keep saying a woman in her 40s will go into menopause. It doesn't happen like that again these days. So get behind that system of yours and research to update yourselves now!

The woman can get married anytime soon, still have children and live the most fulfilled and happiest life than all of you who rushed into it in your 20s cos shes carved a niche for herself that she and her children will not have to struggle through achieving what they want in life. She can.afford to send them abroad to get the best education and they'll still come out and surpass some that are still struggling to gather money to pay uni fees in Nigeria.

To each his own abeg. As if marriage answereth all things. Even the bible says, money answereth all things and not marriage cos even with marriage, you still need to obtain favor from God to be happy and fulfilled.

women who knoe their roles as a mother in the society are very valuable... but women like you , no so sure.. you cant do anything without a man, but claim you dont need men, what a hypocrite... that water you drank this morning was processed by men, that bed or chair you sit now was made by a man, that clothes you wear now was made by a man... do you see how you survive because of men?... what has women done for you?.. the next time you see a man, bow to his feet... you will always need a man, deceive yourself all you want... you should be happy we give you a role in family building, asides that your usefulness is no where, sorry, i cant see any place a woman is needed asides homemaking....


You're still living in the 1900s. We're in the 21st century now, a lot of women are building empires and making advancements in their careers. Some of them don't need men to even get pregnant and certainly don't care about home making or raising families. It's their choice, respect it. Don't be too pained though, there are thousands of unambitious mgbekes that need men and marriage for survival. Go for them and leave career oriented women alone

You have a very low self esteem, speak only for the yourself, your family, friends and relatives, you do not speak for all women.

How do you know why she is posting this? Are you in her mind or heart? She says she is happy, who are you to say she is not happy? Are you God?

I don't apply make up(not for religious reasons or religious in anyway) and I am very comfortable in my skin and never fake. So you do not speak for all women.
Mother Theresa and reverend sisters do not get married or have children but followed something they are passionate about and I am sure they are fulfilled. The lady says she is happy so don't speak for her. We can't all want the same thing. Not every woman desires marriage and having kids what her friends have should not be her problem as she is not their competition.
Marriage and having kids is a choice and not a must.
Some want both while some will pick one and leave the other.

I don't know why it hurts you men so much when women say marriage is not their ultimate goal. Such women are in the minority, you shouldn't even be bothered about them. Plenty women out there are willing to depend on their husbands for money for salt and Maggi, they outnumber the independent ones by a huge margin

there is nothing in her post to suggest she sacrificed marriage or that she is currently single.

She claims she sacrificed her 20s. Those bribing up the "Marriage vs Career" balancing question have made assumptions about her that are not in her post.

I don’t know what part of the world you are .

I’ve worked 10 hours per week (6 times a week ) plus total 1 hour commute to and from work .

There are times I did 12-13 hours in 6-7 days .
I’ve had situation where I worked back to back in three months no weekend off (took breaks in between work )
And I still pack my bags for business trips
.
A lot people work their arse off .

As for her age and menopause.she has the money she can decide to adopt , Ivf etc
Take a look at the bolded above, then go back to her statement of working 60-80 hrs weekly. How does that correlate? That's if you can read and understand. She is saying she works 60-80 hrs week in, week out and you are here giving an example you working closely related hours sometimes. We are talking about regular work hrs of 60-80hrs weekly.

Did the lady say she doesn't have a family?

Family doesn't start with having a husband. She could even be a lesbian, and thats family to her

I wouldn't want to train my daughters by making them believe marriage gives happiness. That's why so many relationships have issues. People go into it to find happiness.

Happiness comes from doing what you love. Monks and Nuns in Monastries are happy too. It's what they love

Stop defining marriage as happiness

you make a lot if sense... i always tell women that.. your lifes path and choices isn't the same as a man.. for one men dont face menopause.. men can have kids at any age...sperm doesn't wither... if as a woman you wonna go fully on the career path, you must be willing to sacrifice family.. because you just cant have both at once... there's a study that says.. most career women are depressed... they young women here don't really known anything... linda ikeji started like this but now its a different case... no man wants to marry a 41 year old woman when the prime is gone...
