Media personality, Toke Makinwa has advised singles not to compromise their standards due to societal pressure when choosing a partner.
The stunning actress asserted that there’s nothing wrong with a woman relying on a man for financial support, adding that men unwilling to take on that role should simply leave such women for those who are.
Speaking in the latest episode of Toke Moments podcast, Toke said
“You don’t need to lower your standard. There are over a billion people in this world. You can go and find somebody who has what you are looking for. Stop letting society dictate for you.
“If you say, ‘Oh, this girl is a money-hungry b!tch. All she wants is a man to pay her bills.’ If you can’t pay her bills, leave. There is another guy who is what he is looking for.
“I feel like we make things harder than they are; fighting online with our opinions. If somebody is not what you are looking for, refuse the urge to start trying to pinpoint what is wrong with them because it is actually a reflection of you and not them.”
In the same podcast, Toke reflected on being single and childless at 40, she admitted that if she had remarried, she might have ended up divorced again.
Making a strong case for her reflection, Toke noted that she has come to realize that life’s lessons never end
