Prolific producer Wilson Joel known for speaking his mind undauntedly started a topic on the state of singleness this morning and has started a thread of conversation with some who agreed and others who disagreed. Read below:
Wilson Joel: What’s all these “I Am Single and Happy” about? There’s no way a sane man or woman at least above 30 will be single and happy! Prove me wrong! I personally don’t just like all these “new world ideas!”
I simply think people have become selfish and deceitful to themselves in different ways!
I am single and not happy about it! If you are single and happy about it, better deliver yourself from alone! Prove me wrong!
VOX POP
Fonny Michael (Gospel Artiste): I think that it’s important to be happy while still single until God brings your significant other along. My believe is that when one especially lady says She’s single and happy, it doesn’t mean they like being single, it just means they are enjoying being single until God makes a wonderful man find them and of course the happiness continues. However, I dnt think its ok to flaunt it on social media that you are single and happy except you were asked , or except you are just hypocritical abt the subject. My opinion please
Kylie (Gospel Artiste): From my experience of being single actually you go through stages before you even get to the final stage of holding on to the hem of God’s garment and standing in peace with being single, then deciding to carry on pursuing your dreams whilst you wait. Hmmm… even in that you still have moments you ask yourself is everything ok with.

Imah Marcel Otejiri (Gospel Artiste): I just still feel people use that word just to comfort themselves… just the way we say ‘it is well’…
SUBMISSION
There is a need actually to keep yourself sane while single because being frustrated will drive you to your wits end. That does not mean you are satisfied with being single, like Wilson Joel rightly said, no sane person will be alright with that, it just means you have learned how to take decisions, not based on emotion but from a matured individual’s perspective. While you are waiting, prepare yourself to be the kind of person another individual will like to be with.

I do agree with Joel Wilson on this topic , once you are 28 as a girl you look forward to getting hitched , come 30 you get through the stage of wondering if all is well with you, 32 desperation kicks in and this is the crucial and hardest stage if care is not taken a lot of mistakes are and heart broken. But once you get past this stage you get to the stage of finding peace with being single.
You start looking for tings that you enjoy to occupy your self and not worry so much.
Then you start finding your happy again.
When we claim to be single and happy, ( This is the stage where we go into the mode of self denial) this actually takes alot of energy and putting up a wall to convince yourself you are happy with the state of singleness but deep down you know you are not.
This stage is very dangerous because you live a nonchalant attitude life style, every guy becomes a joke and every girl becomes a game. For ladies Ego kicks in ,you take on the character of a man and you begin to loose your femininity.
So unknowingly you start coming of as miss masculine . independent, I’ve got it all under control and I don’t need a man ,I am the boss.
For a guy you start gaming every girl including ones that could be the potential Mrs you.
Very crucial because this stage ! Takes a long time to realise you got it all wrong.
