Popular media personality and chef, Uriel Oputa, has opened up on her evolving perspective on marriage and relationships, sharing a honest take that has stirred conversations online.
In a recent Instagram story posted today, Uriel expressed that while she once had a strong desire to get married, her experiences and observations have since reshaped her mindset.
“If you had asked me 5 years ago, even 3 or 4 years ago, “Do you want to get married?” I’d have said absolutely, 100% yes.
Ask me now? I’d have to think twice. Because the ratio of men we’ve got left feels like: inconsistent, egotistical, narcissistic, manipulative… princesses.
And honestly, I’m not sure I want to spend the rest of my life on high blood pressure medication.
But hey – in God we trust. Mine will be different ” she wrote.
