I v a male friend who is 40 n not thinking of settling down yet, just get d right person, if not u would regret getting married 4 d rest of your life. .

Well your friend no longer feels those youthful "I wish this was mine" sparks in nervous system when he meets a beautiful girl. He's been there, done that.
It will be very hard for any girl to coerce him into marriage at this age.

A lot of people end up feeling dissatisfied with who they married but you never hear them say it in public places like nairaland.

There's a 31 year old bachelor in my office and I'm always teasing him. I'll apologize immediately... I hope he doesn't feel this bad.

How can u say marriage is not a cure for loneliness when the very reason woman was created is because 'It is not good for the man to be alone'. If u are married and still lonely, then you must have married the wrong woman because even though she is present, she is to you like the animals were to Adam.

Lol... My Dear i am talking about reality and practicality and not what is written in the Bible..Don`t get me wrong i value God`s word but i wonder why the world and Nigeria in particular is in a mess when we all read the Bible and the Quran.. The School will teach you the theory and life will teach you the practical, read in between the lines.. Your happiness in life cannot be placed on someone else i.e. your partner.. To be free from been lonely you have to find a life purpose that drives you and makes you jump out of bed in the morning to hit the road and the real life purpose is reaching out to others and putting smiles on people`s face, that is what Jesus Christ did and all the great women and men who found their purpose on earth...

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.

Your acclaimed 37yrs old, is that a kind of 'football age' or true age cos i know young men of that age and above not desperate for marriage at all.?

I can only respect those that claim marriage is not compulsory and don't go around looking for whom to sleep with.

What's the difference btwn the f_vck a marriad person gets and the fvck a person with gf/bf gets.

Secondly: do married people cheat?. If yes. Your assertion is insubstantial and farfetched.

They all face same risk.

See a mental health specialist.

You are having mental health issues stemming from feminine-like insecurities and vulnerabilities.

It has nothing to do with marrying late. Marrying late is a thing of joy and a beautiful privilege for a man.

You should keep waiting for the right person. You go wait tire. There is nothing like the right person... He or she doesn't exist. You only know the right person when you are old together or you loose the person.

I have seen people take the whole time in the world and still end up in divorce court. The point is, do what you think is best for you. The challenges you face as a young bride/ groom is the same challenges an old bride/ groom will face. Women have a larger pool of men to choose from when they are younger not when their youthful hue is already drying up. You choose your man when you are in the position to choose not when you are beginning to appear like the leftover goods after morning market.


If you choose to remain single for a longer period, let it be for the right reasons, the fact the you are yet to find your soul mate based on plausible criteria or the fact that you have no interest at all. If your criteria to choose a partner is out of this world and that is why you are single, then the person is on a really long thing .


There is nothing wrong with early marriage, there is also nothing wrong with late marriage as long as you are in whichever end for the right reasons.

If I said that your mum looks like a leftover goods after morning market, would you feel insulted?sad The ease at which you lots degrade women in the name of making a point is bafflingundecided.

It might interest you to know that men also have the same issues. Yes, they can approach any woman but she has to tick all the essential boxes to be their perfect woman else they will just be getting married for marriage sake!
