Jobless But Busy Girl Syndrome: I'm a Masseur, a Personal chef, Personal shopper, Fashion Designer, Hair Dresser. The Growing Trend Among Young Ladies

Jun 20, 2026

Many young men are beginning to complain about what they call the "Jobless But Busy Girl Syndrome:" — a trend where some ladies intentionally delay replying to messages to make it look like they are very busy and occupied, even when they may not be.

According to one frustrated social media user, some ladies can ignore messages for a whole day and reply the next day, but they respond very fast to men who are giving them money or financial support. He jokingly wondered if his chats had been archived because of how long it takes to get a response.

The commentator argued that many people today are more interested

in looking busy than actually being busy. "Empty barrels make the loudest noise," he said, adding that the people who constantly advertise how busy they are are often the ones with the most free time.

He also claimed that many young ladies no longer want to identify themselves as students. According to him, if you ask some Gen Z girls in school what they do, they are more likely to say they are entrepreneurs than students. In his view, everyone wants to look independent, successful, and busy in order to impress men.

The commentator further alleged that some ladies secretly make a living from relationships with wealthy married men

or rich single men despite having no clear source of income. He claimed that some small businesses and service-based ventures are sometimes used as a cover while maintaining such lifestyles.

Examples he mentioned include home delivery drink businesses such as tiger-nut and zobo, professional Masseur, Personal chef, Personal shopper, Fashion Designer, Hair Stylist, Makeup Artist, Remote jobs like Virtual Assistant. According to him, critics believe some of these businesses are used as a way to meet and connect with wealthy men.

He also argued that many ladies now take great pride in their beauty, skincare, fashion, and online appearance, making social media image a major part of their

identity and advertisement for virtual prostitution. He also argues that most ladies uses Apps like Tinder, Badoo, Ticktok , Facebook Messenger etc to source for wealthy men, leaving professional app like LinkedIn alone.

While some social media users agreed with these observations, others disagreed and argued that delayed replies do not necessarily mean someone is pretending to be busy. They insisted that everyone has the right to manage their time and respond to messages when it is convenient for them.

As the debate continues online, opinions remain divided on whether "Jobless But Busy Girl Syndrome" is a real social trend or simply a misunderstanding of modern communication habits.
