Do you think 22 is too early for marriage? What age do you think is the best for a woman to get married?


Hello beautiful people ..
So I've been thinking of this topic for a while, and luckily for me one of my friends (very close and good friend) got engaged today. Bridesmaid duties #Yipeeeee lol! She is 22 and she is done with both bachelors and Nysc just remaining masters.
I used it as my dp, only for people to message me and say it's too early. 

Hmmmm... Me I don't use to like all those too early marriage o because you don't even have enough time to see the real world sef but some people don't mind. Speaking to her mum, her mum is very happy and ready to start planning the marriage as soon as possible. She says there's no age for marriage, once you've found the right person and you are done with the basic things you are good to go. 
I showed another big Aunty of mine (also a mum) the convo and she said its nonsense. That 22 is still too young to be engaged, that she doesn't really know things yet and she's not as matured as she thinks she is but personally I think maturity is a personal thing. 
I'm sorry BUt I see some of my big aunties and somethings they say amazes me because I would never say that and it's childish, so what you see as maturity might not be how someone else sees it so now I want to know, what age do you think is okay for a woman to get married?

  1. Hmmm for me ,maturity is not by age ooo,it all depends on the people involve,if u think u re ready,then u re ,,,,but I will tell that marriage is an institution for the matured minds....u can never be too old to make mistakes neither are u too young.

  2. What ever one is best for her. Humans always feel obligated to just be shrink their opinions upon your life. But in my case I don't live to please them I live to please God. So if it is 22 that she wants to get married who am I to come in between that and speak negatively of a happy union

  3. Age is not and should not be a determinant here. If those involved are ready and matured enough to get married why not show them all the support. Theres so much going on in the world today and the marriage institution is having its fair share of the evolution so to say or has the older generation forgotten how they got married at 18/19/20? By that i mean our parents. Education came and slowed things down abit..but now that we have got a hold of it and can finish the basics early, why not. Some of us got career to pursue and would want to stall abit but whoever thinks they are ready should be supported fully!

Human beings are different!

The break down of  "Accepting people for who they are".. It's a vice versa thing! Happy December everyone!!! A few more days to new year, God has been amazing this year. Next year would be better IJN.  A little over 20 years of my life, I've learnt that one of the hardest thing to do is "Accepting people for who they are" ..  I've lived with people and I've had different types of friends and many times adjusting to someone's lifestyle would just be hard for you because you either love them but can't cope with their lifestyle or you love them and don't wanna lose them.  I have many people around that just piss me off daily because of how they behave but would I send everyone away? No. You have to help somepeople change too. I've learnt in a very hard way to accept people for who they are but that's only when they accept me for who I am too and that means you wouldn't do things I don't like and I wouldn't ...

Independent woman!

I don't blog on Sunday's but I had to just put up this story and I want it to get to as many people as possible so because of that, there wouldn't be any story up until upper week :).   Every day of my life since have been growing into a woman, I have always imagined myself as a very strong and independent woman. I don't like depending on people at all, I hate it! If you ask my parents am sure they would tell you, i just love to do things on my own because that brings no dissappointment.. Parents dissappoint, friends dissappoint, even partners and siblings dissappoint the only person that doesn't dissappoint is God and I know he has my back. Growing up has shown me so many things and how people can be, it's even the ones that you really love deeply that start showing you that you don't really mean anything to them, some wouldn't even want to talk to you because you probably forgot to message or something and it's even worse because you even ask peopl...

Finally! - Am A Writer & Author

i came back from school (America) December 2014 hoping to go back as soon as possible but my dad had another plan for me. He wanted me to transfer schools. Different things happened. I had the longest holiday from school in 2015, it wasn't easy for me too many things happened at once but then God doesn't just delay you for no reason, this particular holiday am talking about Birthed "ONCE UPON A TIME"..  I was bored, nothing to do, then I picked up my laptop and started typing. I am grateful to God for making this my dream a reality. From the onset my dad supported me and my mum was my backbone, my siblings would read the story over and over again and say "Sister Damilola you tried".. I never knew I would write a book but I always knew I loved to write, and I had intention of writing scripts and probably sell or give out but i never knew I would do this, right now i have about 3 short stories i have written almost like once upon a time. i had a tough...
