  • Many young women are increasingly choosing not to marry. Marriage counsellor, Wanjiru Kiama, says that in as much as the choice may seem the best now, at 50, that woman may regret her choices. It's very lonely at 50!

    My question is, what assurance is there for growing old together? Married or single each person will be single at some point in their life unless you die before your partner. Love yourself first, know God personally, be content in life. If a husband comes by let it be an addition to your life not a savior from loneliness.

    Well can we have a proper description of the terms Loneliness!
    Well as for me l strongly believe life begins at 50 years. This is when you get time to expand your horizons after taking care of your kids etc. Most people rediscover themselves much later in life. I personally,as a Christian, God blessed me with the spirit of fulfilment and contentment. To tell the truth,l found myself most of the times alone but not lonely, and am normal a hundred percent. Get me right here and no judgement. We are very different in many great ways as some cannot stay out of marriage or relationships and some love their own space. The good thing is that am ageing gracefully by the grace of God but am not a loner. I just have some kind of peace and independence that is only God given.
    I love my space Soo much that putting together with someone can bring some discomfort to me. Again,get me right. Appreciate your show and wisdom shared.
    You are blessed and am happy of the show.
    The laughter in it is just amazing.
    May the Lord bless both and expand thy horizons.
    Bravoooooo.

    it is no secret that many of the lonely women are married women. Married without any/positive emotional/physical/financial/psychological connection with their spouse! that is loneliness!!

    • @betty541
      @betty541 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I agree. Being married does not at all equate to not being lonely. Also, some people have a full life and they like their own company and do not feel the need for marriage. Also, what happens to widows? Or people that have survived abusive marriages? This is not a one-size-fits-all situation.

    That's quite some nonsense! You could be married AND very lonely! It always surprises me about the kind of non merited information this "counselor" dishes! As a mental health prifessional I think this is unhealthy advise, especially for women! You are supposed to empower, not degrade...🙈. A man should serve a woman just as a woman should! Nothing more, nothing else...gosh metha ya kagoni, there are more balanced marruage counselors out there...just my opinion

    Widows stay alone. Women and aging do it in communities (church groups, Chamas) or female caretakers. Old women are rarely taken care of by their husbands it’s the other way round. I have yet to see many Widows remarrying in their late 50s and 60s. Men who are leaving their families at an alarming rate because they’re feeling strong, are the ones for the first time in History in Africa who are aging alone. This is the reality of old age with the different sexes.

    Wakiama you are speaking the truth eg an independent woman who has everything doesn't need a man in her life but we do feel lonely at times and fear someone coming into our life to control us...also about children resenting their mother after marriage breakdown is true. But later the children comes back to their mother when they mature mentally...l can attest to this...l have a lot to say about this but not now or in this channel. Wakiama you're a God given germ.God bless you and may He continue to bless you in everything you do. Happy to chat with you wakiama at your convenience 🙏
