This could be true because most married couples miss it through lack of trust, understanding, love, family, communication. Let's stay focus. Fake life is worst you know....

It depends on whom you're married to. If you marry your friend, I think marriage will be fun than single hood. But if you marry a sadist, hmm... You would wish to be single again. So

Marry your friend.
thank you ma

if u value freedom single life is more enjoyable

But if u value companionship then married life will be more enjoyable if and only if u marry ur friend.

I think marriage is more enjoyable when you marry the right person.

Exactly! But how do people marry the right person if they are always in a hurry?

Married life is more enjoyable only if you are with the right spouse.

In my honest opinion, being single is more enjoyable except that you'll miss the sex part (for those of us that are born again) but talk about freedom and the will to do what you want and when you want it, single life is bae unlike when you're married that you must do certain things whether convenient or not.

Now one aspect marriage life can freak you out is home front where you have to manage and keep it and also have to combine it with your job.
I do visit some of my married friends and sometimes don't admire them cos we may get back from work same thread time, and right from the road while I'm relaxed and not hurrying to anything, she's rushing to pick the kids from school, stopping at the market to buy a few stuffs to make evening meals. She get home, attend to the kids then races to the kitchen to prepare meals by what time I would have rested and prolly taken something light for the day. And I begin to wonder, is this what I'm going to be someday? Mannn its not enjoyable at all.

That is just one aspect of it. Talking about emotional aspect where you have to deal with spouses short comings and all that. Its a whole lot.
Families and others.
Marriage is over hyped especially in Nigeria where you believed to lose yourself just so you can be seen as submissive.

Let me still enjoy my single life while it last biko.
You are sounding like an evening newspaper who's chances re very slim and is on the verge of discouraging other young ladies.

While right, Your points assumes that nothing happens to your partner at "Old age" and that your Children are forthcoming in assisting you (morally & financially) then too (a phenomenon that's gradually disappearing).

To be fair though, with Money, All the challenges you've raised can be eased.

Nobody has ever died of being single, but many, I mean countless of many has died for marrying a wrong woman and the death rate is still increasing.

What now is the solution? Is being single more enjoyable than married life?

People shud always remember this. It is 100times better to be single than marry the wrong person. Also it’s 100times better marrying the right person than being single. The key is to marry correctly I guess.

Not everyone u love or fall inlove with is the right person. U can love sm1 and they might not be the best for u because ur love was based on the wrong judgement or a one sided one. U can date almost anyone bt can’t marry just anyone. U have to consider many factors. Genuine factors not selfish ones I need to state.

It depends on the individual. Some people do better in a partnership such as marriage while others do better going life solo. An elderly gentleman once told me that there are pros and cons being married and there are pros and cons of being single. So figure out what you think is best for you.

says who? Several men/women have been killed by their (ex)lovers. The percentage is even higher that those murdered by their spouse. i agree that many have died for that reason but you're exaggerating. Single folks get killed as well.

solution to what? The best is isolating yourself. Why? Cause people are quack.
to be honest, yes. Being single is freedom. To do as you like, not bother yourself with the many worries of marriage and having a partner, you can afford to be self_centered and dedicate you life to fvck anything that moves.
But married life is maturity. After the bliss of youth, you settle that with that special someone to make memories that actually count.
I respect the vows.

I agree with most of this write-up except for the bolded in your last paragraph. Being married is no yard stick to measure maturity.

There are many married men and even women out there who are not mature, who are not responsible, who are not providers, who are married yet live apart from their spouses and are cheating on them. There is a reason why so many marriages, especially Nigerian marriages have folded up or are plagued by domestic violence and infidelity amongst others.

Likewise, I have seen single men and women who are responsible. They are taking care of their elderly parents, they are raising the children or child of extended family members who can't afford to raise the children they bore. You have single adults giving back to the community or to the society at large.

Oprah Winfrey for example is not married yet she built a school for orphaned girls in South Africa. She has granted numerous scholarships to her fellow black Americans to attend college/university. She owns several successful businesses. So because she does not have a "Mrs" title before her name and no children, you want to tell me Oprah is not mature?

So is it Nigerian married men and women who mostly raise kids who grow up to be internet fraudsters, kidnappers, cultists, organ harvesters, drug traffickers, runz girls, corrupt politicians, rapists and pedophiles that are mature?

Let's start telling ourselves the truth. Exchanging marital vows, vows which by the way most Nigerian married folks don't honor anyway, and giving birth to children who grow up to be criminally minded like Hushpuppi does not a mature person make.

There is a reason why despite all the marrying that Nigerians do, Nigerians still don't have a good reputation as a people and many folks from around the world sadly don't trust Nigerians. Ponder on that.

Single life is bae ooo

But having babe over the weekend for one month consecutively has shown me the other side of life. Sometimes u come home and an empty house is quite discouraging. No one to talk to. All chores are done by me. Sometimes I run back to the family house on weekends. But having my babe over has been exhilarating. Someone to gist with, laugh with. Someone who helps you out in the kitchen. My fridge is stocked up with food prepared by her. The nights are more pleasurable. The cuddling and everything is on point.
It's actually making me think of marriage right now sef.
Lol

@czarchris, come and state your own opinion
For people like me, coming back to that empty, quiet house after having a long day dealing with people, is nothing but a huge relief cool Gives me the chance to recharge and get back myself because people are stressful cheesy

Why saying all on a public forum, you know we could have communicated via mail... Things like this, I always prefer it just like Gold n Simi, apart from being one of my favorites Celebrities, we share the same ideology of life together..

We love things been secret but not too secret... We don't really boast or want too much publicity. I hope u understand MI Sha, I will be glad if u do
