"Extended family gives an Ultimatum "Get Married or Else..."


"An Igbo lady studied law at the University and was lucky 2 graduate at an early age, so she went on to get her masters, did her Bar exams and was just planning 2 get in for her PhD when her Extended family screamed with an Ultimatum "Get Married or Else or else...". No woman should be unmarried at your age (at this time she was just under 31). She didn't pay them much attention until they started putting pressure on her parents and holding meetings behind her parents back.....
They kept asking what she was getting all the education for and that too much book was not good 4 a woman. Anyway, its really bad 4 her now because they have managed 2 incite her immediate family against her saying its evil spirit and now she is being threatened 2 choose between going 4 her PhD or getting married."
HIAN this is not a joking matter ooo.. WAT THE HELL .. Y WOULD they be forcing me and pressuring me to get married..
reallly noo reallyy.. infact let me calm down.. ..*using finger to remove sweat"
 ehen back to my story...

i think its wrong to pressure someone into getting married or wat not... infact it is HARSH because the people who are forcing her to get married wouldnt be there when the couple  starts having issues, and start fighting...
like i always say to myself  MARRIAGE isnt an easy something ..
sometimes i ask myself if i really want to get married.....
