What Are Your Unspoken Sentiments And Aspirations As Regards Marriage? by Nobody: 12:25am On Oct 02, 2015
By societal dictates,most if not all of us are expected to get married,and someway somehow it unconsciously creeps in and settles in our psyche right from the infantile yrs that once we're grown up,we should start making plans for marriage.....At the age of thirteen, it's common to hear a mother telling her daughter.."is this what u'll do in ur husband's house?"..."You need to learn how to cook if u want to be a good wife" stuffs like that..The guys are taught early enough that they are to be d head and breadwinner of the family...And so,7 out of 10 children grow up planning to get married as a matter of necessity...When girls graduate from school,they assume the next step is marriage....
But I do believe that a good number of us have some unspoken sentiments about marriage. For me,there was a time in my life when I thought getting married is pointless coz I thought of it as a boring union...I didn't see why d society should frown at an unmarried 40yr old woman...Some others simply feel they are just not cut out for marriage....
Over to u,Naira landers,what are ur unspoken sentiments and aspirations in marriage....Feel free to air ur views..All the Mr nd Mrs Anonymous,air ur views.
For me,though,I've gotten over those sentiments.... When I think of marriage,I think of building a happy nd loving home..think of myself as the woman that's solidly going 2 be behind her husband on his way to the top..friend and confidant to my spouse nd kids,being able to raise intelligent,beautiful, smart nd obedient kids...Lol,I've got lots n lots of fantasies..
Whatchya gotta say?
Must everybody get married?
Must every couple produce kids of their own?
Must u indulge ur in laws at all times?..Views needed.

Don't believe in marriage either, I think its over rated.

A broke a.ss dude who can't fend for himself is pushed by society 2 get his life savings and start living a mediocre life.

He's all tied up psychologically becos he is now "a family man"

I wana be a lot of things,successful,rich,happy,young.. But not too sure marriage is gonna give me all that.

There's nothing complicated about your man smashing broads. Just a jealousy gene that used to be dormant and which Hollywood has made to come alive.

Hollywood will make romantic comedies and Disney princess flicks that make women think monogamy and romance are the Holy grail off relationships, and at the same time be the leading cause of divorce in the world.

Some people don't even bother to get married. They get divorced from the idea of marriage itself first. Which is a great disservice to yourself because marriage brings a kind of companionship every one should enjoy.

Easier said than done,when the op hits her late 30's & not yet married,her overrated would turn to underrated.

No matter whom you are & what ever you've achieved in life,you still would wish you married to a man.

Even the likes of Oprah Gail Winfrey would say;in her next life to come,she wouldn't do such a mistake again... Meanwhile she is forming Odeshi,while she is regretting & crying in silent.

If i hear say Genevieve Nnaji no dey pray for husband to come

Marriage is beautiful if and only if you find the one you truly love, cherish, respect and adore. He or she has to share in your life visions and aspirations too. Your heart can never lie to you when you see that person.

There might be trials or disagreements but the above will keep you going.

Time to get my day started.

Cheers and nice topic @OP

Everyone "should" enjoy...U're implicitly setting an objective standard...These are subjective matters, I bliv. Perhaps d companionship doesn't make up 4 a host of other things certain individuals can't put up with in marriage.

I think for a lot of people, the scariest thing about marriage is the 'forever' of it. The finality in the vows we often hear on TV that read "Will you...for long as you both shall live?" are almost sinister in undertone - its scary. I wonder how people feel comfortable uttering such lofty, irrational 'promises' to each other in the supposed presence of a deity. I mean, the words themselves seem less from a God and more from the ink of a bleeding heart romantic nursing gut-wrenching feelings of unrequited love with an alternate imagination of reality the likes of which only hard liquor (the usual culprit of "to infinity!"/"would that it were" idealist thinking) could inspire.

Marriage is bliss when you're with the right person. Although there will be challenges, it's only a test of love which makes you stronger.

Well I like the union of marriage and all that comes with it.

Asides that I need an offspring to continuity while i'm gone. Don't tell me that I can still get children even without getting married. That,to me is a stùpid act.

I'd rather get married to a woman and have kids with her legally.

That's my own sentiment.
