Well, in this age where a woman can kick a man out of his home, a house he must have built before marrying, men have got to be cautious.

Men seem to have got a lot to lose in marriage than women and with some clueless left-wing governments in the West pandering to pseudo feminists agitations who seek for equality but looked the other way on men's plight and in situations that gives women the edge.

An age where after struggling, working extremely hard and build a career for one's self with rewarding financial perquisite, a woman can initiate litigation and get awarded more than half of your asset in alimony settlement then men have got to be careful.

Perhaps, men have also realised that marriage is not as exciting as paraded but rather a union that impede individual freedom and restrict personal development even as its always filled with puerile arguments. It's not a rosy ride and the growing inability of humans to endure, take responsibility and tolerate one another has further entrench the fear of getting married. Interesting times.

If marriage impedes individual freedom and personal growth, then you married the wrong person. Your life partner should want you to be a better person. If you are with the right person, you as couple should grow together, you as an individual should grow as well.

Compromise yes! Restriction No.

Does an ideal partner or the right person ideology exist? How can someone be seen as right to another when they aren't right themselves? Relationship/marriage isn't about finding the right person but becoming the right person to one's self.

How possible is it to find the ideal one when human's innately tend to find faults in others to give ourselves a lift and accentuate our success thereby shadowing our misdemeanor. Thus, it becomes almost impossible to find the ideal one unless they're congruent to us. Even at that, someone that is identical to us but lack our flaws would not be a good match.

I think the ideal partner exist for all of us but how do we meet them when most people are attracted to the unavailable persons. We don't find the ideal ones attractive like we do for the unavailable ones.

In perspective, let's assume a single successful career-driven doctor is searching for an ideal one. His/her cursor would only navigate around an equally career driven individual or an educated fellow and would never look the way of an unskilled, uneducated and pauperise fellow because they're considered as unideal from the set go even without getting to meet and know them.

You'll agree with me that being an ideal one is beyond education, shrewdness, mouth-watery wages, beauty/cuteness, race and general success. In view of this, what are the odds to find an 'ideal one' who'd fit into our predispose choices and standards?

men want to marry but sometimes finance holds them back but mostly the girls of nowadays really ain't nothing to write home about so basically the main problem is the unavailability of good wife features/material.
Men are not scared of marriage rather they're scared of marrying a Jezebel who will turn their sweet life into nightmare and the recent marriages, divorces, and the rate at which young wives now fk around omo hahaha you go fear na..

"Ideal" in my view, doesn't include lists. It doesn't mean perfect list either.

I agree that you have to be the right person after-all, you cannot give what you do not have. It's about finding someone whose faults and quirks you can live with or one you can work with.

To be honest, most of my relationships have been people who were not necessarily doctors or lawyers or some educated professionals. I have actually prefer not to marry another doctor.

I don't mind being married to someone not of same educational/professional caliber, if he doesn't mind. The problem is a lot of men are intimidated by such women.

in this our generation? you are 90 percent correct. You will know the true colors of a babe when you make her believe that you're broke and lost your job bro, some might try to stick with you for a little while before their color surfaces but the ride or die chick will stick with you but will encourage you in different ways and that's when you can truly ascertain who's real to you.
