I Have Two Men Who Want To Marry Me - How Do I Choose? by Norahsthought(f): 11:08am On May 20, 2020
Hey guys, so a little background story. I'm 25, finished school quite early (schooled abroad), and got a good headstart. I am pretty comfortable, I have a good job with a great growth trajectory. So really, I'm focused on my career right now and not particularly interested in starting a family soon.

So here's the real story. I have two male friends who have shown interest in marrying me. They are both doing very well and from equally good backgrounds. I initially wasn't interested in marriage (at least for now) but you know friends and family. I am not in love with any of them or even with anyone at the moment (I am a woman of war lol) but they are both great guys.

So my challenge now that I have decided to be open to marriage is this, how do I choose? Should I even listen to the advice of friends and family to open up to getting married to one of these men or should I just wait till when I feel ready? I need advice and please be nice.

You're not interested in starting a family soon, at the same time you've decided to be open to marriage.
Obviously, you're not just ready. You're just looking for flimsy excuses to satisfy feministic non existing career!

Truth is, it's none of them. If it was any of them, you won't be here seeking for advice. Meanwhile, you need to try more guys, give it time and when you meet the one, you will have no doubt in your heart. Try me�

Don't marry because your clock is ticking o.

Many women are singing songs of lamentation because of this grave mistake.

I believe you're not open to love or marriage for now so don't marry cause your friends and family are pressuring you or because two guys are available.

If you are really friends with these guys, you should be able to tell them how you feel. If they can be patient with you till you know what you really want.

Any one who can't wait will tell you.

Try and be friends with both of them, that you're not particularly ready for marriage doesnt mean you dont have a vision of what you want your forever to be like. Marriage like any other venture is a risk, waiting till forever will not guarantee a happy ending either.
You should go for whoever's fills into that vision, someone that you can absolutely be yourself with. I wish you luck kiss

It is true. People hardly date in the olden days and they stay longer in marriages than we that date for years and yet nothing to show for it.
Some men come really clean. "I want to marry you" maybe because they've been doing some background check without the other persons knowledge, but it is real, tho not common again.

Like you said, you are 25 and have great growth trajectory. Be open to making newer friends and since you didn't school around here, I advise you take your time.

Before they pressure you into anything, remember we will be here to advise you how best to go around a messy divorce.

Re: I Have Two Men Who Want To Marry Me - How Do I Choose? by Norahsthought(f): 11:40am On May 20, 2020
I'm comfortable talking to both of them. I have had one as a friend for about 2 years. He was just a friend and recently talked about getting serious. The other one, I have known for just over a year made his intentions clear almost from start. However, they both did at relatively the same time. They don't know each other though.

Marry me when you feel like you are ready..

Your family and friends will not follow you to your husband's house...

Don't rush in and rush out

Don't marry any of the guy cuz you will end up cheating if you marry any of them. Reason being that you do not love any of the guy. They are simply great you remember? The clause there is that you said you are not in love with any of them but they are great guys. Mark that expression. Not in love but they are great. Being great in your own way might means that they are doing well financially. I think that's what you meant by they are great guys. Not really that you are in love with any of them. That's one red flag.

Don't make the mistake of marrying out of pressure from family and friends. The marriage won't last.

Do you want to marry because you truly want to marry or because you being pressured by family and friends? Are you in love with any of the guy you are aiming at marrying or you simply want to rush into marriage because you think menopause will soon catch up with you?

Be sincere with yourself. Don't go into marriage with someone you have no feelings for. Don't forget the red flag I pointed out to you. You are not in love with any of the guy.

This is the kind of stories we hear every day of how a lady married a guy and within 6 months of the marriage, the lady will be complaining of how she no longer feels anything for her husband. It all started like this.

If you see stories like that just know that it is either the girl rushed into the marriage due to the fear of becoming an evening news paper or her family or friend pressured her into the marriage.

Don't let your story be like that. Marry because you are in love not because your family and friends want you to.

Yes, there's usually a strong family check when people in my circle (these two guys happen to be) want to get married. Serious parent consist is required.
