Yes you can’t force a man to propose but u can force him to come to his senses. It’s either we are in a committed relationship to each other as adults or that’s that. Everything and everyone has it’s limits. pic.twitter.com/Wmlnc2eyNg

You can ?. You cannot be wasting someone’s time for nine years.
Imagine if you’ve been working for a company for nine years without promotion and you can’t afford to look for better options outside how will you feel?— Chuks (@Sunshyno) January 9, 2019
Many people described the 9 year relationship as a waste of time, considering women’s biological clock ticks faster than the men.
She’s not forcing him, she has every right to leave… That’s a LONG time to waste.. Women have a biological clock.. If she wants to leave & find someone else who wants the same things in life as she does it shouldn’t be a problem!

He can’t be forced to propose. If he feels satisfied with where their relationship is the he has no reason to take it anywhere further.
If she feels she can’t stay at that level without progress then she is well within her rights to leave. Forced commitments often end badly

While this lady has got her eyes on settling down with the right one who wouldn’t waste her time, a certain Nigerian lady identified as Nonny Blessing on Facebook, seems to have her priorities set on very different things.
She disclosed that she has got a very good man who gives her the sum of N100,000 to buy only ice cream, subtly throwing shade at broke boys who cannot afford to give their girlfriends as much.
