You better japa

God will perfect it.

Are your parents financially RICH like Otedola?
If yes, marry na, If no, do the opposite Biko.

Irony of life mhen. When my folks dey tell me say make I no marry yet. Me sef no dey reason am at all.

i guess the op is a core-northerner from d look of things.

Listen to yourself, and follow what your right thinking self tells you to do. Non of what they are disturbing you about is an achievement. Stay focused on what you plan to do which I believe is the right thing. No one will bear the challenges that comes with it when you are not prepared for it. So plan your life and stay focused on it.

Tell your parents to get you a job if they're so desperately in need of grandchildren

God bless you much bro! All these African parents no dey think at all, imagine pressurized a 21yrs old to get marry...

Are you the only son?

Rubbish!!!

Good evening my fellow nairalanders i need your strong advices.my parents are forcing me to get married !! I'm just 21.I've tried all possible ways to change their mind. it ended in vain.

I'm not in relationship either. What should i do now? I'm still schooling and unemployed too..

Seriously? You're barely a man (no offence intended) What could be their reason for being eager to get you married? Are you extremely promiscuous? Are you the only child? Do you have a terminal illness? Are your parents extremely wealthy and willing to sponsore the marriage and take care of your new family? Not like all these are valid reasons but I'm just trying to figure out what they could possibly be thinking!

Anyway, I don't think they can force you into marriage. Marriage requires active involvement especially on the man's side. So if you're not willing, there's little they can do. You only have to say no and stick to eat. If they find a woman, they can't do anything without your involvement. Even if they bring a woman home, nobody would tell her to run for her life when she sees how uninterested you are. This is not the time to be a respectful son. This is time to save your life.

In summary, stick to saying "No" and see how far they'd go to make you succumb. That will inform your next step. I feel so bad you're facing this at 21!

Just tell them to clear 3 rooms for u in their house n be ready to feed u n d wife they forced u to marry

TELL YOUR MUM THAT YOU ARE IN LOVE WITH HER AND YOU WANT TO MARRY HER.
ONCE YOU DO THAT, EVERYONE GO TEAR RACE FROM YOUR CORNER LEAVE YOU ALONE.
DEM NO DEY TELLI PERSON NA.
SINCE MARRIAGE NA BY FORCE.

When you marry, it will make you responsible and more focus in life. Before you know it you will be financially fit.

You're the first born. Your kid sister is married with 4 kids already.

I guess you're from the north. I doubt if northerners even force their male children to marry this early. Or maybe there's something you're not telling us

Please don't entangle yourself in that trap called marriage at this young age. Run away if you have to.

They should force you all they want.
If you decide to bow to their pressure, you'll face the music alone.
Discover life for yourself and do not let live your life because you want to please anybody

Ask God for Grace

1beat:
if you are not SS or cultist (Eye, Aye, pirate etc)

clear them you're not ready for marriage.
but if you're one of these above guy listen to them they know what they're saying.

Hmmmmmm. Wise one

Are you the only male child

To be frank i no believe this story am very sure the op is not an igbo man because we can't force our kids at that age

I smell lies here but if its true then... I doubt if any parents will advise their son who's yet to have a bearing to get married. I doubt.

I find this story very difficult to believe.

Mbdovey:
@op, maybe you're their only son and you're behaving inresponsible.

So you believe this story

Why are people quick to judge matters, they didn't even ask the guy why are his parent forcing marriage on him.

There is always a two sides to a story.

inumidun2010:
Better go and ask them why.. Maybe they have been told by all these CONFUSED SPIRITUALISTS that you won't live long...
