Afraid Of Marriage? by Tabelachizza(f): 12:38pm On Dec 20, 2014
Wondering whether anyone is afraid of Marriage as I am.The fear of leaving my family,my siblings,especially my immediate elder bro which is my small god,who condones all my excesses:Gets me any good stuffs he sees on the way,who is always d first to caution me when am wrong:Will I get married into a peaceful family like mine where all of us are agemates,share things in common,will they accept my Introvert nature?Will they be complaining that I am too quiet?will they get the fact that my bed is my best friend in the whole wide world? When Everyone says"you are too BORING"will they say such too.will they understand that I am not the type that involve in Family discussions?I gain my Energy when I am alone thinking and researching as a Biochemist that I am,will they accept me that way?My Family,My better half,the only people that understands the life pattern of their last child::hmmmm,My future career is my uttermost concern,will they understand that I need a Doctorate Degree? Can they ever treat me the way my family does? God!! Your Grace is all I need.I pray Theyunderstands::

I am scared stiff of marriage but my fear is not borne out of a fear of what I will miss but the fear of getting involved with someone who would make my life hellish.

I don't think you should be scared of losing your present family. I don't see any reason why you should give up your family because of marriage.

My take is that in marriage I am granted the opportunity of expanding my family base. So it's more about what I stand to gain than lose.

The problem only comes when your gain is a negative, such that your positive footing will become compromised by the negative.

OP


You know there's no rule in life that states you MUST MARRY

If you have all these fears and anxieties about marriage.. Ma'm I think it's best you remain single.

There are many people who live through life, happy and die single.

So you may want to consider that option.

Marriage is strictly a choice and from all what's you've said, I think you're too self absorbed to think of marriage.

I think you are still young and childish.

I will also put selfish to it because you want everybody to do this and that for you, you want everybody to understand you flimsy excuses which are mostly plastics, You just know only yourself but that's because you are still single.

If you continue with this mindset and get married then your marriage might crash before it even starts.

Advice: if you ever choose to marry(marriage is a choice not a must), have in mind that many people own you and you owe many people...you might not always have your way.

if you are scared then don't marry. Why do what you are scared of?
