UDUJ:


Okay TheUpsetGirl1 let me give you some inkling as to why most guys are scared of marriage:

Basically it could be the reason of independent decision making which is generally curbed after marriage.
A lot of responsibilities , tension ,anxiety creeps in to your mind as you have to make sure you handle everything efficiently which may lead to several health problems thereby decreasing your life span.

Men love to be carefree , absolutely free to do whatever they love to do , which is not possible after marriage for we become tied to our family and its members.

Also many a times there are chances of arguments, quarrels and domestic violence on account of mismatch of ideas, misunderstanding, clash of opinions, etc which disrupts the smooth running of life.

Life is short with an uncertain duration and no one knows what is going to happen with him in the next birth, so he wants to enjoy everything he wants to in this birth itself and tries to avoid marriage as much as possible.

Most of us view Marriage as a Mirage. Peace of mind goes after few days .You feel bonded ,and fall in a dilemma which you cannot share with anyone .

Your personality is shared , you loose your privacy .If your views are not common you develop contradictions.

If your mother develops contradiction with your wife there is another headache. If your wife has some male friend and you are not open minded you develop another psychological dilemma with what to do or not to do. If u have a female friend and you don’t tell your wife you have a guilty feeling and if your wife gets to know 95% of time her reaction will be negative.

If your wife does not conceive you become worried, if she becomes pregnant you remain worried till delivery. After delivery if your child has some handicap your whole life becomes hell. You worry about the family, the future, societal pressures to meet up etc etc.

The truth is, most of us feel this way when we have doubts about the partnership (who we are bonding for life with). Once there are no doubts we jump headfirst into marriage without thinking. We listen to no one and follow our hearts and the heart never fails. That's how you know you've found the right one. But the possibility of finding the right one these days is getting smaller and smaller sadly undecided

nice write up.
you're very intellectual
Kudos ✌

How about the fact that:

1. Most of them are not well bred. They lack basic responsibilities that a normal human being must be taught like how to respect your elders, how to respect women, how to take care of yourself and environment, how to show courtesy outside the home. Most males are raised to reason and act like animals. How on earth can they cope in marriage?

2. They are not given proper orientation of marriage neither are they raised to look forward to it just like the females. Because of this, they do not value marriage and the vows that comes with it as do the females.

3. They have a misguided sense of self entitlement. This has led many into thinking they are scarce commodities so therefore, they can linger around doing nothing while they have 1-7 women feeding and clothing them.

4. Most males are victims or witnesses of domestic violence. This is one of the reasons why a lot of males do not have a good relationship with their fathers who should have been a good role model to them. little wonder the young men think they would be horrible fathers. And yes, a lot of them end up repeating the virtuous circle.

Look around you, males are everywhere but very few of them are man enough to embrace the responsibilities that comes with marriage.

what responsibilities?

lmao....do u really say this? But remember our mothers were also not forming feminist like the new generation Nigerian ladies.....The only time a Nigerian lady will allow her husband to be the head of the house is when it comes to finances.

immediately you get married, the responsibilities become too much. The worst thing is some women aren't helping matters.
Any lady who can't help with those stuffs you listed isn't fit for marriage.

When it comes to romance, Nigerian men are known to be actively engaging. Apart from their culture of carrying the financial burden of relationship with women, they harness every opportunity to appeal to their lovers, be it on social-network sites, in their respective offices, religious organizations, clubs among others.
Now I'm going to list 6 reasons why Nigerian men run from marriage.....

3. Nigeria weddings are expensive
In a country where a man is expected to marry a woman in three different kinds of wedding- Religious, Traditional and Court, the cost of marriage no doubt is something men find very intimidating. Presently the average Nigeria wedding cost something like N700,000 and the it goes upward from that to more unimaginable cost.

4. In search of a ‘working class’
Today, most Nigerian men are in search of a wife capable of sharing financial responsibilities with them. Gone are the days when men marry ‘full-house-wives’, the increasing cost of living has tilted most men in favor of ladies who have a means of livelihood and willing to share with their man, the burden of building a home.

Number 3 - Nigerian weddings don't have to be expensive, if you and your potential spouse can sit down to agree on how to cut costs, prune your wish list and streamline your desires. sad Do a small traditional introduction/engagement in the bride's father's parlour, involving only immediate family members, and not more than 5 people, from the extended family. Remove alcohol or wine & beer, from the drinks list. Serve your guests only rice & chicken. Nothing more. Following day, march into the registry to sign the dotted lines. From there, pack into your husband's house. Wetin remain? shocked

Number 4 - Forget that hype about searching for working class ladies. angry Those working class ladies full banks, telcos and multinationals, but most of them are still 'happily' single, with the Ms. prefix, firmly in front of their names, despite all their efforts to shift it. Many have even joined the senior singles club. So what is the hype about working class ladies? shocked It is just an excuse some guys use to dodge matrimony. Ok, if working class ladies were in such high demand, how come many of them are still single?

There are wife materials in Naija, but the only problem is that my Naija brothers are not looking for them. cheesy Or at least, they are not looking for them in the right places, or with the right mindset that would help them find such materials. They prefer to run after the glamour girls or glam mamas, slay queens, instagram junkies, fashionistas etc. And then turn round to complain there are no wife materials, in sight. angry Do you know how many men have left wife materials in the lurch, only to run after fashionistas and slay queens? shocked

what responsibilities?

In a way I can agree with you in some.points raise, but I wouldn't term it laziness, I would say cowardice.

Some are so scared of the unknown that they try to rationalize and manage everything as they see fit.

For some it's marrying a woman who works to just in case

For some they would rather not marry a lady who has more problems than they do

For some it's marrying someone who has a thriving business

I choose not to believe they are lazy but just scared of the unknown

I followed all your comments, if you look back at the time you spent responding to comments with the aim of insulting certain users whom you termed as broke guys you would be surprised how much time you could have used to pass a positive message that some young ladies might learn from.

I know it's hard but try to resist the urge to be abusive irrespective of how preemptive the comment may be

You are a lady, (that doesn't signify wekaness) and no it doesn't mean men have Monopoly of acting guttery

But we still hope to look to you women to remind is what a prime and proper character should be

Alot of your posts made me smile though (dark humor)

Oddly enough I find you very interesting, your edgy feminist stance makes you wuite appealing and scary at the same time

But I understand feminism is born out of an oppresive system that tries to subjugate women which is very unnatural

We should be friends

1. No wife materials
Common among some men is the reservation that there is scarcity of ‘wife-materials’ in Nigeria.

2. They get sex freely without marriage than in time past
Realizing now that they can get sex more easily than in times past, when ‘virginity’ for women was a pass value to marriage, some men now feel lot of women today have lost it when it comes to keeping themselves whole.

3. Nigeria weddings are expensive

5. Unrealistic Expectations from In-laws
Some parents have set certain standards for anyone who will marry their child, either way be it that such expectations are from the groom parent’s or bride, the regulations sometimes affect relationships.

6. Trust issues
Most times, people fear to get committed into a relationship because of trust issues. Some men have been bruised in their past relationships and therefore they don’t want to put themselves out there.

It's not a deluded statement, blame her not for making such statement because ladies of this generation have being ruined, this generation is fvcked that women marry for money and to ease pressure.

I stand with her with that statement because a woman can only pretend to be a wife material when there's money, disguise yourself and see how they'll flop woefully.

The post below was made by a Nigerian lady for you to understand what I mean.



No! Sex is not free in a marriage, you are indirectly paying for it.




Even if they spend 300k for their wedding, it still doesn't mean it isn't expensive, we'v got different financial worth.

Marriage is expensive in Nigeria both for the rich and the poor, that's the truth.




Go and get married to Dangote's daughter, then I'll believe that inlaws don't give unrealistic expectations.




Trust is the very last thing most partners pay attention to in a relationship.

A woman will channel her concentration in your financial abilities, while a man will channels his concentration in your loyalty and respect.

Even, we are not even suppose to trust anyone.







What can you offer a rich man?

Absolutely nothing!
what can you offer a rich woman,absolutely nothing.
