Marriage is sweet when there is money and when you marry a good partner. That's just it. Anything else is out of it. There are more battles in marriage than in singlehood. As for those who are sweet about it in this thread, that's because you married a good partner (for now). We have not put it to the test in more than 5, 10 years because the winds of the earth change. And yes, it may continue to be good if the parties involved know what they are doing. Just don't marry an unfortunate person. However, this is what Apostle Paul says, "But if you do marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. But those who marry will face many troubles in this life, and I want to spare you this." What did a great apostle see to say this? Just choose your poison... I will end this with the words of Socrates: "By all means marry. If you get a good wife, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher." 9 Likes 1 Share |

Short answer is NO. I never have. I have been married for almost a decade and a half and what we have achieved in life as a family is what I never would have dreamed of as a bachelor. I married a woman who looks out for me the way I look out for her. We've built a solid fortress spiritually, physically, financially, etc. I won't have had it this good alone. My life was scattered especially because I was forced to be independent at a young age and I left home at around 17. Sometimes I imagine if I didn't wife her when I did, another man would have cupped this gift that God willingly gave me. TWO GOOD HEADS ARE BETTER THAN ONE. We're not without disagreements sometimes but we've so far maintained a peaceful home. Yes, life gets chaotic but knowing you have a genuine person, no chaos is big enough. Learning and unlearning is constant in our marriage and knowing what God requires of us per time. We have been intentional about our relationship especially when our kids came in the picture. From just date nights enjoying some of our favorite TV shows indoors to trips where we focus on each other and plan the next month, next quarter, etc. We keep a united front before our relatives including our parents, friends, our children, etc. I sometimes re-read my kids' school composition about us as their parents, and I genuinely ball my eyes. God gave me the best gift and I almost lost her wasting time that year. But to God be the glory. No regrets. 22 Likes 5 Shares |

I got married to someone I have been dating since my secondary school days. She is my everything and I see her as my best friend. Marriage is cool, sweet, enjoyable when you are with someone you both love and respect eachother. Most people that says otherwise about marriage are people that has seen shege and banza from their partner hands. 2 Likes 1 Share |

YES! Be very observant. You will know. They also reserve some advice regarding finding a spouse from you unless they really like you. My guy tell me say men don't really need women. He is married with 2 kids. 2 Likes |

DoWhatThouWilt:/ In this day and age, the only difference between unmarried couple and married couple is that the latter has a document of enslavement signed and backed by law. The overall benefits remain same. A live-in girlfriend may be better than most wives because of limited sense of entitlement--separation is usually less painful financially and otherwise for a man. / 5 Likes |

Those who fail to plan usually plan to fail. Go in with the right intentions, to build each other to be the best version of yourself , to work together and both of you against the world and not against each other and don’t take advantage of each other and be truthful one to another. Nothing is more sexy than knowing that someone has your back and you have theirs a partnership in the true sense of the word. Instead Una go dey look for yansh, Bobby, how much the other person get for pocket and how to commandeer it for your self instead of helping to grow it. Often times when they talk of gold digger people look at a woman but a lot of gold digging men looking to marry women to take from plenty for ground even for Nigeria but more so diaspora and even before them land for marriage na unnecessary stress over money and them see that the other person no be Mugu and their selfish plan is not working they are miserable and start to tell story up and down na London wife, she is not submissive etc. On top most are not faithful or trustworthy with their partners. Do unto others as you would have them do to you. DoWhatThouWilt: 2 Likes |

I am happily married and I don't envy bachelors. When I was a bachelor I had my fun, but marriage showed me that we as men typically chase women to validate ourselves or to fill an emotional void. Marriage and having a family has been great for me. I have grown as a man mentally, spiritually and financially. I have a healthy family I come home to and I'm proud to see grow and thrive. Just watching my children eat brings me a lot of joy. There is a time in life that being a bachelor is fun, but after a while i becomes empty, unstable, and loses the 'fun' aspect. Some men don't grow to the next level and will chase women perpetually. If that makes them happy that's cool. Once you realize your dick is not the most important thing about you, marriage will make sense. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Obviously they do because the number of married men denying their status just to get in-between the laps of young girls is enough to verify that claim the competition is so highsamong them in other words competing with the single guys which also shows they are not proud of or even happy about their status so.. yeah, it's safe to say they envy single guys.and wish to be single again so they can mess around freely. 5 Likes |

That bachelorhood enjoyment is fleeting as its immature and deceptive. Get carried away on it and watch your time pass you onto old age with nothing to show for it. And when you look around, you'd find out that those old, fun mates you called girlfriends by then are verily settled longtime in their own homes with grown up kids. Then, you'd realize what's called a phase...and, it passed you by. Grow up. Nobody gets a medal by partying nonstop or how many p.ssy you fk or all that. That's a grand smokescreen meant to deceive you. The greatest blessing onto any man is to discover his love on time, marry her, have kids with her on time and enjoy the fruits of your family in your old age... Because, old age is a certainty. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

mablie:mind what you wish for yourself bro, spoken/written words have great effects/ You will only envy single men when you are not with the right woman. Girlfriend CAN NEVER BE A WIFE, no matter how long and how deep the relationship is. If you become a father as a married man, na there you go begin feel like a king David inside. The Nigerian society also accords more respect to a married man, even if he is in a bad married, than a single ma. Again, as a married man, you are only stuck with one route of spirit transfer (that is if both partners are faithful), but the single promiscuous man will keep exchanging different spirits, and perhaps diseases, with his different sex partners. One of the benefits of being single though is focus, whenever you want/need it. Because for a married man, he will have to battle to be alone. But with understanding he will achieve that, no be where small pickin (his child(ren)) dey sha. If you also realise that many girls who come your way do not have only you as a sex partner, it could be heart-breaking. But a wife is assumed faithful. 1 Like |
