Staying alone is the best option. What you have to do is stay humble, gentle, prayer and not be afraid. Don't be too naive to rush in a relationship with cramps cause der might ruin urlife. Takecare of yourself. 1 Like |

As long as u know what you are doing, please, move on with your plan! Make a huge success out of yourself and show them you are quite fine living alone! And let them know that despite "being alone now, you are not lonely" |

@AmIaYahooGirl you made it this far without much input from random talkers & now that you've earned enough to afford an apartment, you are allowing their thoughts to govern your decision making! 1 Like |

Not a bad idea in your own case, just be faithful and don't trust anyone, why most people will say that is because maybe you want to live a free life to avoid disturbance and do whatever you want to do. 1 Like |

AmIaYahooGirl:you're really a strong person, i so much admire your strength and will to be independent in a humble way. I pray God make a way for you. Regarding staying alone. The problem is you're vulnerable to all these wicked people going around but to a large extent it depends on where you stay. If you stay in a compound that is not isolated and where you are in friendly terms with your neighbors. I mean those kind of neighbors that can look out for you. Then you should be just fine. Regarding what you are doing. Why not consider going back to school or learning a skill? 1 Like |

Nigerians do not like seeing people being independent, not even their own children. You are not a 23 year old girl, you are a 23 year old woman. If you stay alone and are thriving then I don’t see any reason why things should change. The only thing you should worry about is security. If thieves come over they won’t have mercy on you. Try to stay in a place where you are sure of not facing such. Other than that I can suggest you living with parents, but that’s mostly in the case of trying to reduce expenses. You say you are one who doesn’t follow advice or need it. Why are you then seeking advice? Don’t waste my time here. 3 Likes |

Michelle55: The only reason I can discourage a lady.not to stay alone esp.if she is born again is to avoid.undue pressure from.men who see a lady.living alone as a sex object.If.youre living with a grown up person,it provides a shield against such.But if you can handle the situation,no.problem.Another thing is security.There are ladies of your age who live alone and no dare mess up with them.It depends on who you are and what you want.Go back to school.Be closer to God and dedicated.to God's service.Your cousin didnt do well at all.Dont nurse bitterness against her.God wants to bring out something out of it. 1 Like |

My do not listen to what people are saying. If you can afford to stay alone please do. All you need do is to stay focused.you know where you are coming from so continue doing your best to better life. Always put God first in all you do nd he will direct your part. Avoid unnecessary acquaintances that will derail the lord will see you through. Goodluck. 1 Like |

I Started staying on my own from 16, I'm a guy though and matured quite early both physically and mentally so maybe it doesn't count. But there's nothing wrong with doing so, infact it's the appropriate thing to do but our Nigeria countrywide culture strives to keep us home until maybe after marriage. Reason why you see people of 30+ with exposure of 15 yrs old in this country and zero independence-minded. You're on the right track. 2 Likes |

AmIaYahooGirl: I made the decision of staying alone at 25. I am 27 now. And yes, everyone was surprised I left home. They never believed I could take that step, especially when the economic condition of Nigeria is not helping. People will always talk, no matter what. Just do your thing and live your life. If you find love, that's good. Don't show a bad attitude to those who think you should not be living alone. You can learn a lot from whatever they will say to you. I have always tried to mind my own business, and that has been very helpful. Assuming we live close, we would even become friends. You get sense! |

it is not really a bad idea living alone at 23, to guys it isnt a bad thing but to ladies the scociety believes such a lady will be promiscuous. one of the big reason they are asking you twice. |

AmIaYahooGirl: Do Not let anyone talk you out of staying alone because of their own insecurities and the ancient dogma they carry on their heads like gélé. You are on the right track , it'll give you enough privacy and peace of mind to map out the next direction of your life and also enjoy your youth and spinsterhood( responsibly). Do Not tolerate anyone that will misjudge you because of this decision. All the best dear. |

There is nothing wrong in staying alone at your age. You are not too young staying alone at 23. More so what you have gone through has made you to be matured than your age mates. My advice to you is that continue to live a righteous life and be patient enough to wait for the right man to marry you. You will not regret your life in future. I will like to introduce you to an instagram page of Daneil Akpata. When you get there, send a whatsapp message to him that you are interested in self discovery materials. He will send some materials to you that will be of very good help to your life, good luck. |
