Why Aren't Guys Marrying Divorces And Widowed Women? by Southernigbo: 9:51am On Aug 17, 2021
I understand that there are so many beautiful young ladies who have never been married before, but then not all divorces and widowed ladies are bad, too old or whatever negativity any person might want to associate with them. In fact, many of them are far better in all ramifications than these slayqueens parading as young girls. In essence my advise to young n old guys out there is that, just as you consider young girls for marriage, don't exclude these divorces n widowed women. Don't see them as women who are sex-deprived who should be taken as lovers n temporary sex mates.

Doors it bother you?? grin grin grin
I think everyone has a different taste and needs..
Single mums and divorcés are increasing at an alarming rate, and its quite logical though.. When a Man divorce his wife or vice versa the man tends remarry a young girl with no children at all, and start his own new family and apparently it supported by the society.. And still the same society don't allow guys to marry single mums and divorcé..

But yes Guys are getting married to divorcé and single mums

Lots of stereotype about those sets of women especially in our Nigerian society,but every preconceived negativities they might have about those sets of women fly out of the window once a woman in USA,Canada, Australia,England etc is in the picture .
Family members that do kick against such union will give it a go ahead and call it "true love" cheesy

There are very real challenges involved.

- Everyone especially a man's parents and relatives will be wondering why their son decided to overlook the countless single ladies around to want to marry a divorcee.

- Many parents will not give their blessing to the union
- If the said divorcee has a child, the man who is single and wants to marry the lady will have to decide whether he is ready to becone an immediate father figure
- The divorced partner is a constant 3rd wheel in ur relationship esp if they hav a child/ children
- Deciding how to raise a step child and juggling visitation rights/ custody fights
- Religious factors eg. A lot of people will tell you that you are committing adultery if u marry a divorcee whose former spouse is still alive

The list goes on...

Too many challenges undecided

There are so many reasons.

1. Whatever a divorcee or widow can offer, a girl who hasn't married before can do same. Nothing beats starting with someone who doesn't have that ex husband or step child wahala.

2. Like someone already said, what people will say is another thing.

3. Marrying a divorced woman is double wahala. If she was the problem in her first marriage, you're in deep shit. If the ex husband was the problem then you have to work to prove you're not an asshole like him.

4. Not many can raise another man's child in this hardship. Many of the women don't have enough, so marrying them means inheriting extra financial burden and a lot of us are not doing that okay.

If marriage is a responsibility then marrying a divorcee or widow is responsibility pro max prime. grin

why relationship and not marriage? Many men are in this bad habit of treating divorces n windowed as ladies who shd be treated as concubines. abeg no concubine these poor women, not to talk of giving them extra problem by impregnating them while still unmarried

Abeg single men should leave them alone, leave them for widowers or divorcee like themselves or baby daddies..As a single guy, find a single girl, they are so many and of different categories, pick your evil and marry one...

Going for a divorced woman, in this days of social media could bring alot of dramas you can't handle.

You may fling but don't keep it...inshort connect them to baby daddies if u have .

Why would you buys a used car when you can buy a brand new car?

Women in that category have been used. That's another man's property.

Women who are divorced will always try to bring up her last marriage that didn't work. She will always try to compare you with her ex. She will lie about what happened in that marriage. How she did everything for the guy, etc. It's not a good idea for a young guy to consider a divorce women. I am not saying they are all bad. But why would you get yourself involved at all.

If you get a widow as a wife, she's always in pain and sorrow for the death of her husband. She will always think about what life could have been with him. What and what they could have achieved together. How he died, what killed. How she loved him more than the current husband. Even though none of that might be a reality had it been the guy is alive. But that's just how human brains work. We think about something that we don't have and what we have we think it's not good enough. Then if there's a child or children from the previous marriage, it's very complicated. How can you raise another man's children.

It's a very complicated situation for both divorced and widowed women out there. Plus a lot of women out there are looking for husbands!!

The truth is, divorced people come with baggages and most single men or even single women are not ready for that kinda relationship. The best thing in my opinion is for them to also go for other divorced people. I'm sure they can work something out.
