A 26-year-old lady has stirred massive reactions online after an interview video of her went viral, sparking widespread reactions on social media.
The video, which has since gained thousands of views across different platforms, triggered intense debates around love, marriage, family responsibility, and personal fulfillment in modern society.
I Don’t Believe in Love – Lady says
In the interview, the lady openly stated that she is currently single because she “doesn’t believe in love.”
She explained that her personal experiences and life responsibilities have reshaped how she views romantic relationships and emotional commitments.
According to her, love has lost meaning for her, and she doesn’t see herself building a romantic relationship based on it.
Her statement immediately divided opinions, with some viewers applauding her honesty while others questioned her outlook on relationships.
Rejects the Idea of Marriage
When asked if she would ever consider marriage, she firmly said she wouldn’t.
She revealed that she is the firstborn of her family and has carried responsibilities all her life.
According to her, being the first child meant taking on parental roles early, emotionally and financially supporting siblings and family members for many years.
Because of this, she explained that she wants to spend the rest of her years being “selfish” in a healthy way and finally prioritizing herself.
She emphasized that her decision is not driven by bitterness but by exhaustion from years of giving to others.
Self-Fulfilment Over Motherhood
On motherhood, she stated that she believes she would make a great mother, but insisted she would not have children.
She said she loves her unborn children too much to “bring them into this world,” explaining that parenting is far beyond finances and requires emotional presence and sacrifice she no longer has the strength to give.
She added that raising children demands constant attention, patience, and emotional availability, qualities she feels she has already poured out throughout her life.
Her comments sparked conversations online about mental health, emotional burnout, and the pressures placed on firstborn children, especially women.
Prefers Partnership Over Marriage
The lady further revealed that the only kind of relationship she wants is a partnership, not a traditional marriage setup.
She clarified that such a partnership would be based on mutual understanding, independence, and shared values rather than societal expectations.
In her words;
”I’m not in a relationship because I don’t believe in love. I don’t want to get married. As the firstborn, I’ve spent my whole life taking care of people, and I want to use the rest of my life to be selfish and focus on myself. I’ve given too much of myself already and I don’t have the strength to keep pouring into people anymore. I know I would make a great mother, but I love my unborn children too much to bring them into this world. Motherhood is not just about money; it requires emotional presence, time, sacrifice and constant attention, and I don’t have that to give anymore. I’m only interested in a partnership, not marriage.”
Since the video went viral, social media users have continued to share mixed reactions, with many praising her self-awareness while others argued that love and family can still exist alongside personal boundaries.
