Have you ever wondered why there are a lot of single moms in the Philippines? Have you known someone who is one? Did you ask her how she became one? Well, I'm going to tell you about the "STUPID" things to do to become one.
1. Fall in love with someone who is very immature and doesn't have any sense of responsibility, a person who has many faces. Choose that man who only gives more importance to five-minute instant release of carnal happiness. An irresponsible man doesn't have word of honor. He can't keep his words to love but only his wife. He has a very high regard to himself. He has a narcissistic personality, he acts like a single hunk in front of girls. Once he has being caught red-handed, he would eventually deny everything to death.
2. Choose a guy who doesn't have any career in life or even the guy who doesn't have any plan to be financial independent and lacks of motivation for self-improvement. Financial problem is a major contributor of divorce. According to several studies and divorce statistics, a “final straw” reason for divorce is a lack of financial compatibility and money mistakes in marriage.
Everything from different spending habits and financial goals to one spouse making considerably more money than the other, causing a power struggle can strain a marriage to the breaking point. So, if you choose a frugal partner with no sense of financial independence, you will likely live a single motherhood journey in life.
3. Choose a man who is good at inflicting abuses may it be emotional or physical. That man is a very good manipulator.. He doesn't know how to handle a woman gently. You can tell right away if a man is not gentle by the way he treats his mother or sisters. Another thing to consider is if he doesn't care much to animals. When you live together, he always questions your sanity to the extent that you will think you are crazy. He resort to yelling, shows anger right away, can't hold his temper and tactless when it comes to giving his opinions about you.
4. Date a man who has a short tongue. He is the type of man who is not sensitive to your needs or in short who can't communicate with you. Some men are only good in the beginning, but as the marriage progress to the next level, they tend to be negligent to your feelings and needs by showing lack of intimacy because of their inability to express what they want and need. They just only communicate with you when its their comfort.
5. Be in a relationship with a man who is an addict. Addiction comes in many forms. May it be alcohol, drugs, cigarette, gambling or women. Addiction is a sign of lack of self-control. It's easy to spot a person who doesn't have discipline in life. You can spot him through his uncontrolled impulse and addiction. Marrying a man who needs a discipline is a an act of suicide. Good luck if you found one!
6. Marry a man who hides under his mom's shirt. This kind of man is emotionally dependent to his mom that he can't make reasonable decision within the relationship without her support. He has difficulty in decision-making like renting or buying a separate house, celebrating anniversaries, travel goals, business and more. You will end up arguing with him because he can't make a decision right away. He becomes emotionally dependent on you and worst is that he's green monster grows when you intend to improve yourself. He envies you for your achievement in career instead of being supportive. There's also a big tendency that your will live a controlled marriage life. You will be exposed to numerous amount of insult and abuses not only from your partner but from his family.
7. If you came from a broken family with dysfunctional parents, there's a big tendency that you will resort to early marriage which another contributor of single parenthood. Early marriage means lack of preparedness and maturity being in a relationship and to raise a happy family.
To sum up why there are many single moms in the Philippines, the simple reason is, there are a lot of assholes. There are actually tons of reasons why there are many single moms.
You might wonder why I tell you the opposite way. I was once a former single mom. I did those "STUPID'' things I mentioned above. It's difficult to find my way out.
There are tons of good men as bad ones.. Don't rush to find the right person for you. He will come at the right time and in the right place. Love yourself first by upgrading your skills and extending your social outlets and career. That's the best investment you can ever have.
Take care.
