@kumasi_Ba commented:
"Good for you. You are a strong woman. Keep it up till you start fasting for 40 days just for any man to say hi to you."
@mademanworks reacted:
"That's why am not asking. You can invest your whole life on someone and they dissapoint (sic) you right when you thought you are going to be together forever."
Why are the guys in the comments so bitter?
"The slightest idea that a lady doesn't think much of marriage & they over the edge howling. Could it be that that's where they get relevance from? "Next year you'll be at Shiloh", "you'll soon be 35" So? How's that your problem dumbo?"

"You go tey for your papa house soon you go become chairlady association of saying NO to proposal..."

"I think what I find most irritating about some of you naija men is that you won't be still even in your mediocrity. Nigerian women have chosen desperation over dignity so you have license to be behaving anyhow and no self awareness to control your ego."
