I hate it. I’m 41, never married, no kids.

I’ve been close…twice. But ended both relationships when they were caught cheating.

I’ve dated several men since then, most older than me, and they seemed to be in no hurry to even be in a committed relationship. Which is crazy to me that these men are mid-40s and still trying to hangout with the guys and party. I met a whole guy group of friends in Houston 2 years ago…all single, all 36–45 years old. They were throwing house parties during the quarantine…parties!! ��

When I was in grade school, I was told to get a degree, don’t get pregnant, just enjoy being single, make friends, keep dating, and the right man will find you.

Now that I have two degrees, traveled the world, developed hobbies, and avoided pregnancy…my doctors are telling me to just be a single mom because I’m running out of eggs as I type this message. �

I beat teenage pregnancy to be considering single motherhood at 41. �

Damn you, parents, counselors, pastors, and everyone who gave me that advice. I can’t get that time (or my eggs) back. I hate being single at this age!! ��

Have a child.. There is nothing special in 90% of marriages.. Its the children that keep them together.

Which is why in old age, mama can go for omugwo and forget the man in the house..

Beleive me, no greater joy than being a mother..

Pls, what will young souls like us now do, cuz me I don't understand again... They tell us to keep ourselves etc, that the right man will come, that men out there are after your pants, once they see it they will leave .. person just confuse here jare cry cry, and I we grew up learning that and reading holy book and culture that a girl that keeps herself is very cherished in her husband sight, don't keep multiple boyfriend etc.. pls sir, do you have any word of wisdom you can give me now, cuz me I am confused o.


They gave you the right advice.. We aren't saying be wayward and find a man.

We are saying be available for a man at a much younger age. So many women weren't available for marriage at a much younger age.

So many people up there quoting me with 'it's a choice to marry' if you cannot be celibate then, kindly find someone to build with early enough.

Re: What Is It Like To Grow Old And Never Be Married? by WoundedLamb: 6:42pm On Oct 24, 2021
I know someone like you. I'll advise you to do what she did; preserve your egg and when you're ready, fertilize it. You obviously would like loved to get married and have kids the traditional way, but we can't always have what we want. Please, do not let anyone's opinion deny you your happiness in life.

How can they be happy when they were raised by parents like yours to believe they need to have a man in their lives to complete them in some way? undecided

Jesus Christ taught us that God Almighty made created some - male and female alike - Eunuchs from birth, some become Eunuchs in life and others chose to become Eunuchs for the sake of the Kingdom of God - Matthew 19 vs 5 - 15 undecided

Sadly, some of those who were created Eunuchs are indoctrinated by ignorant parents into believing they are meant to marry and reproduce, setting their life into confusion from their very beginning. It is not mandatory to marry or have companions. This choice ought to be left to individuals to make on their own and in their own time. undecided

God made marital companionship a choice.... no one needs it to be happy,not even in old age. Those who don't have it can still be happy if they desire to be. And those who have it and are not happy can also choose to be happy regardless. undecided


This is completely not a choice issue, or quoting holy scriptures or subtly insulting my parents.

The reality is, old age isn't fair to single people both men and women. That's the reality in our society today , whether they can live with or without a partner to be happy is not my assertion.

If you have all these so-called 'accomplishments' and you still do not know what to do, then you are very much ignorant.

Tell me what a man would give you now that you can't get by yourself. If it is kids you want, do you need marriage to have kids?

Men that would come into your life and turn it upside down.

If you like, keep wallowing in misery, don't be proactive.

Standards, parents expectations.

There’s nothing wrong in being a single mother, so I’d suggest it. I know an aunt who never got married. When she hit 4th floor, my grandma advised her to have one or two children but she refused. Today she’s about 76, lonely, ashamed, miserable and hardly visits home. So please, have a child or two.

I can equally claim that 85% of married women aren't happy either.

Correct! I am married but the way people carry this thing like a trophy amazes me. Life doesn't end there. There are single ladies that are more happier than the married ones. There are many challenges and responsibilities in this institution that you wonder why u even delved into it. I guess its for personal aggrandizement and societal pressures
