Right Age To Get Married As A Guy! by Nobody: 2:01pm On Jun 07, 2015
I'v been pondering what the right age is for a guy to get married. I'm 27 and my parents say I'm getting old lol. I stay alone in a small apartment(1 bedroom), drives a good car and i'm a bit stable financially but anytime I reason the bills that comes with marriage and the numerous responsibility, I go just tire. E.g. Moving out from my 1bed to a 3bed in my area will need I cough out 1.5M for rent. Chei. I can see why many men are not ready. angry. What ur take on this guys?

Also its very difficult to find loyal good girls. Most cute classy girls prefer guys that maybe live on the island or drive range rovers. How many girls can start with a guy in a 1 bed? undecided

Your idea of responsibility is financial. Anyone can decide to be responsible but can u back it up financially? E.g rent hall for wedding, house rent for a 3 bed, marriage rites, having a kid etc. Can you do all that if you earn only 3million per annum? embarassed

There is no right age to get married. But rather, there is a right time to get married.
What you should ask yourself is if this is the right time for you to get married.

In my opinion, the right time for a man to get married is when he is stable in every or most areas of his life.
There are certain criteria that has to be met before any man dabbles into marriage.

Such criteria include:
Financial stability
Emotional stability
Being able to make good decisions and judgments
Being mature enough to be in a relationship.
Being able to understand what marriage and being a husband and a father entails.
Being able to be a father figure to your children. Both financially and other wise
Having the desire to get married.

When these criteria are met, then a man is ready for marriage.

IMHO the most important prerequisite to getting married is finding the right lady, then all the other variables follow. You can have the money, maturity etc but not find the right lady in good time.

@OP. From the little details you've given, once you find the gal you're comfortable with in all ramifications i.e. Love, maturity, personality etc etc & have made up your mind then you're good to go. I don't think you must wait until you match Dangote's net worth

Coping was by the almighty's intervetion.Not that I was in distress.we finished same year,same school with my finance/wife in 2008,and married on boxing day same year.By feb 09,she was amongst the first batch of nysc then i was still in law school.by nov same year i was in the 3rd batch.we had good places for our PPA so there was enough and fused with parental gifts (typical in the north).Things went quiet well for just the two of us..
Our first child was in 2010 after her youth service and as the almighty would have it she got a job when the baby was just a year old. After almost two years of working,i also got mine..up and till this time wer grateful to the almighty.we have a boy as a second child who would be one in a week to come by the grace of the almighty.
