A Nigerian lady has gone viral after she explained why many women in their 30s are not married yet.
She said many women today are no longer searching for ordinary men. Instead, they’re looking for something almost impossible to find—like hunting a unicorn.
She added that in the past, it was enough for a man to be decent. But now, women expect one man to play many roles—like a therapist, best friend, romantic partner, money provider, future father of the year, and even someone who can read minds—plus, he must be very good-looking and perfect.
She pointed out that many women grew up watching movies and reading books that showed perfect men. So now, they’re surprised to find out that real men have weaknesses and are not perfect.
In her own words, “We’re surprised—very surprised—to find out that real people have flaws.”
She also said that men seem to understand real life better than women do.
According to her, men are more willing to adjust, accept flaws, and stay in relationships even when things aren’t perfect. But women often have a long list of things they want in a man, and they feel let down when no one matches it.
The post received many different opinions online. Some people agreed with her and said that women expect too much from men today. Others felt that both men and women have been affected by social media and movies that show love in an unrealistic way.
