Why married and unmarried women should not mingle?

Marriage is a spiritual union between a man and woman. It is also a commitment and a promise of love to one another. Even though it comes with its own ups and downs it is a beautiful experience.

A sizeable number of women end up in hot soup mingling with single women. It has been the belief that single women have no positive contribution to any marriage since they have no experience.

Besides, they might end up convincing the married woman to do other worst things. Others have really benefitted from making friends with single people because they make them happy and grab some fun especially when they are sad.

As a married woman, your husband should be the first friend you would ever have since you are together as husband s and wife. There is the need for married people to share the same sentiments.

Married women of late keep battling with the issue that after marriage they no longer see their friends just because they do not have to mingle with single people making them end up loosing their close friends and loved ones.

As a matter of fact, I believe mingling with single ladies does not change anything out of one's marriage life, besides, it is about you and how to manage your private life from the public.

Mingling with single people enlightens the married women of what is going on in the outside world and how to keep their husbands.

For a married woman to be seen in a society like ours mingling with single ladies, It is seen as a wrong thing to do. With all these instances, why should a married woman not mingle with an unmarried woman?
