deeptesting:
Marriage does not cure loneliness, if that is the only reason for getting married then take a chill Pepsi big bottle and relax because many are married and still lonely.. Secondly, what people say or think about you at 37 should not be your business, neither should it force you to get married... Bro i simply want you marry because you understand the purpose of the contract called marriage.. "Solitude is a gift".
This is awesome. Bros abeg wetin u dey drink? cool

People should try to dish out good advice instead of capitalizing on the loneliness point he made. I pray to marry young and have kids while still successful. A man of 34yr is old enough to get married and have kids, except you're dealing with some personal problems unknown to others.

It is imperative to marry at the right time. If u see anyone still single at 37 then such person need to check his life very well cos something is missing. After marriage u ll begin to blame urself when u see how small ur kids re compare to ur age. Many don't know but this is reality.

I am a 37 year old bachelor and I must confess that never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine that someday I would be desperate to get married. When I was in my twenties, I used to hear of desperation amongst ladies to get married but I never clearly understood the feeling. I felt it was a "lady thing" until I got to the age of 34yrs. One day I was in my bedroom suddenly I felt the rush of emotions come upon me so strongly that all of a sudden started making me feel desperate for marriage. By the following year the desperate feeling became like torture and the loneliness was so depressing. I could no longer stand it when I attended weddings to see other young couples getting married. I could no longer stand it when I hear people discussing marriage around me.

I became like an object of fun in the office when they would call me "the oldest bachelor". I'm telling you, the feeling is not funny at all. Even when people innocently ask "Hey, why are you not yet married?" or "what are u waiting for?" It's a question that I just can't take emotionally. Though I'm doing my best to tie the knot soon but I must confess that it is a feeling that I don't even wish my enemies to have.

If me as a guy could be feeling like this, I can just imagine what single ladies of marriageable age are passing through emotionally.
For those of you reading my post, it is my prayer that you all get married at the right time and age so that you don't have to pass through the same emotional trauma of loneliness and desperation to get married.

There is no such thing as late marriage. There are different times and seasons for everyone cry cry cry

The reason you feel that way is that, you have a job that can sustain marriage and you refused to do the needful, and now most of your friends are married with kids and no longer interact on the bachelor level with you as before and the loneliness is killing you. Ask your age mates not married but withouth job or underemployed whether they feel same way.

Re: The Travails Of Marrying Late by FisifunKododada: 9:35pm On Dec 22, 2015
cool Marriage is NOT mandatory. I repeat marriage is NOT mandatory. Its a cultural expectation. Like believing in God or going to church or mosque. There is nothing intrinsically NEEDFUL about it. And if you enter marriage out of desperation, you will be more likely to end up with one of these very numerous one-chance marriages that will cut your lifespan by half. Be a man. Think for yourself and stop worrying too much about people's and cultural expectations. If you die now, none of these people disturbing your life will agree to join you 6 feet under. Wise up bro.
