Why are Women anxious that they are not Married?

Yemi Olakitan
A Nigerian woman had been single for years and she was becoming anxious. She soon met a man online who promised her heaven on earth. If she could relocate to Brazil to marry him. She did and he turned out to be a drug baron and a violent man.
 In the news lately, A man was said to have locked his dying wife in her room seized her phone so she could not call and went out with their two children. On arrival he met his wife foaming in the mouth. She demanded to be taken to a hospital, but her husband declined, and gave her palm oil instead. He then videoed her for about 40 minutes before she gave up the ghost. Prior to the incident, the husband had subjected the deceased to inhuman treatment for the four years of their marriage in South Africa. 

  This is one of the problems of marrying people based abroad without knowing them. Most times u hear people say my husband to-be husband is abroad and then the guy comes marries her, takes her away and the main issues start up. Courtship is very important, it enables you know who you are getting involved with.


Another problem is many women are anxious to get married to the extent that they enter marriage with their eyes closed. Don't be anxious that you aren't married; rather, pray and watch that you fall not into the hands of devils. Why are some women anxious that they are now married?

Many women are anxious that they are not married because in Nigerian culture, marriage is the almighty in a woman's life. To the extent that they married the wrong man or continue to stay in a marriage even when the marriage is toxic. No! This is wrong. it is better to be alive and single than to be married to a demon. Women should never let someone get comfortable  abusing and disrespecting them. Women must run from such relationships before they lose their lives.
The woman saw all the warning signs that this man was no more her man and husband. she received all the beatings but stayed endured all the abuses coming to her in the name of having a husband and staying married. What is it about marriage that will make a woman put her life on the line to be with a man who clearly has shown disdain towards her, almost all similar cases of this nature ends in the death of the women.
