Would love to post this in the Religion section but romance traffic is mad so I'd ask your opinion here. Back in 2012 while I was still very religious, I was an undergraduate packed in a room of 9 (not kidding) in a public university. There was one very religious brother who is way older than all of us in the room. Maybe in his early 30s or late 20s. Seems he has NCE or ND, I don't remember which.

When it was about time we write Harmattan semester exams, brother travelled to IB. He came back to campus only to tell us he's married. It was a very low key wedding because his pocket is not...

Okay, so he confided in me personally as brothers na, that he married to avoid sexual sins. He wouldn't have married when he did but he just had to. I really, really, really (Can't seem to stress the "really) congratulated him and approved of this action and still do.

Now, of course, less than 3% of females would marry you on NPower salary but what do you think of what he did? If you are able to get the needle in the haystack, would it be appropriate?

I had to ask this because of another Nairalander's comment: "Rome is not built in a day so the man might not be 'successful' when ready to marry;"

What is your opinion about this?

What I know is that lack of sexual sins won't pay his bills, infact if he's completely broke he won't see the sex regularly from his wife, so many disrespect and nagging is what he will see

But on the other side, if he's not completely broke and the lady is also working considering his age they can manage themselves till things get better

Okay, I get you. Your own opinion is that it's okay to marry on NPower salary since it is being, according to you, "Not completely broke"?

No, it would not. Good point you have made here, to be candid.
However, the sin of fornication can metamorphise into other sins and you could be shut out for one sin too?

Who told you marriage is an antidote to fornication?

Do you know marriage could be a barrel of sins?
