And real marriages are miserable unions.

There's no perfect spouse or marriage anywhere. Just make sure you study whoever you're dating very well to see if you will be able to cope with their imperfections. Sadly men are too focused on physical looks and women too desperate to become Mrs to see through any flaws their prospective spouse may have. Las Las, na hide my id go end their matter.

Don't be discouraged by all the tales of gloom and doom you read on social media about marriage. There are a lot of marriages that are doing well.

The point is that most marriages do not do well.

Secondly, are men supposed to marry women they are not attracted to, just to be married?

I told you guys marriage was scam but una nor listen.
Every woman that walks the face of this Earth is a either a LovePeddler/cheat or nagging bitch or a devil or will soon become such so it's better to stay single or adopt/get a baby mama if you need kids never marry i repeat never if you want to enjoy life

When you say every woman, then you are telling the world what you think about your mother and sisters.

You want to review your statement or you stand by it?

Let's be holy here and fear God....


if u want peace of mind in ur life, just find one beautiful lady put dick in her pussy and let her born ur babies for u...

get her a nice apartment outside make she dey enjoy her life, while u are also enjoying the sweetness of life.


that's how u can have everlasting peace of mind away from a woman's headache.


no be everybody this go work for, but perfectly my own fate.




let's be holy, pls.

thanx.

Abi o, and let other men too 'put their dick in her and let her born for them too...'

Let them take turns to enjoy their lives with her in the nice apartment you used your money to rent for her, while she enjoys the sweetness of her life and your sweat.

And let the daughters you have with her grow up to be just like her, so she and her stepbrothers and sister can make you proud and give you everlasting peace of mind.

And at end, let her give you STD from other men that sleeps with her. At least she is not under any contractual agreement to not f**k other men since you 'cared' so much about her 'happiness' and her 'freedom'.

And when you are 70 and you cook and wash for yourself lonely and hopeless, please don't blame anybody for your fate o.

You don't need to develop cold feet towards marriage because its always an inevitable thing in ones life except you want to have babes mama which is a tag for irresponsible men just know that there is no perfect marriage until you make it perfect, I feel men can make home perfect even when the women act foolishly at home

1. Dont you regret being alive sometimes? But it doesnt mean you want to die.
2. Dont you regret being a Nigerian a lot of times? But it doesnt necessarily mean you want to stop being a Nigerian, so same too is marriage. Sometimes, you regret and some other times you feel it is the best thing that has happened to you.
You just have to understand that being married doesnt necessarily mean you have full control of your wife, her parents still have a great influence over her and must respect it and vice versa. She also has some level of freedom too and you must accord it.
Things dont always go as planned or as expected, just take life as it comes and try to make the best out of every situation.

This is the best advice I've ever read on this topic.

More wisdom to you sir.

Icebird.... either isnt very smart, or is smart but just chose to be myopic. I say this because its rather unfortunate that he wants to debate on a very wide topic such as marriage, but limited it to just Duncan mighty's marriage. Is he the only married person in the entire universe?

There are SO MANY PEOPLE out there who are having wonderful marriages. Why dont you also observe such people, instead of channeling your energy and efforts on those who haven't really succeeded in the institution.

Its important to understand that marriage involves both parties putting in effort to make it work; afterall, nothing good comes easy. It's not entirely up to the woman to make the marriage work as your write up makes it seem. You need to remove these sentiments from your mind before you get married, else, your marriage won't be different from the example you gave above.

Correction: So few people .......

Most marriages are miserable and/or fail.

Lol, it can happen. Marriage is honorable and should be worked on and preserved. Regret can be temporary if you make it so. There are people who regretted joining an organization or a school or a course but it later turned out well because they didn't quit or there was no option. Some people even regretted being pregnant or getting pregnant but it's not so when that child succeeds and is making waves 30years later. Don't remain a boy.

What a foolish, low thinking contribution.

The truth is that if you can endure women's repugnant character you won't regret your marriage.

Marriage is all about enduring each other's character.

if you have tough enduring skin you'll have a PERFECT marriage.
Why should you have to endure repugnant character, like why? Whether it's coming from the man or woman. Does repugnant feel like anything anyone would want to return home to every evening? There are some things not to be endured but corrected

Please and please, don't listen to these little children who have all come bellow u to write "marriage is a scam" most of them are not even up-to their mid-twenties.

I got married at age twenty eight and today I am 33 and still strong in my marriage. If to say ur mama and Papa fear, by now u for no exist. Be a man by taking decisions ursef, u don't need anybody's opinion about this institution called marriage. We learn everyday. I never ready, I never ready naim make some people wey de 60years get children of 1year, 3years and 7years. Which strength dem wan use train the children? Most of them go begin take Viagra to satisfy their young wives sef.

My brother, until u take that bold step, u re not yet a man....
"be a man, you're not yet a man" this irritates me to no end (apologies for the strong phrase). Marriage doesn't make you a man!

Your advice is a logical fallacy called 'cherry picking', you are trying to use one or two examples to complete a whole puzzle, just like saying two good bricks can build you a house. The marriage instituition is collapsing and there is nothing your book can do about it. We are in a new age; the aquarius age, the age of revealing. The woman are realising themselves, that they onced governed this earth as gods. The man can only whinge and complain but the woman has risen.

Don't get scared over what's going on in the social media these days, I'm not married but like someone once told me "Your Marriage depends on how you want it to be" look at compatibility, level of communication, how you can handle each other flaws that it won't seem as an issue later also look at the level of openness and honesty if u can't deal with your partner smoking drinking or partying then don't marry such person thinking you can change the person because the change might not happen and u start getting irritated along the way.. Love is never enough in marriage because what happens when the love fades you just have to look for other things in your spouse that will keep the marriage going. If people see Love more as a decision rather than feelings I think their mentality will change about some things..

I keep seeing childish kids like you making comments about 'alpha' males.

This is popular shaming tactic used to quench the effects of the redpill philosophy which is spreading like wildfire... cheesy

Comments like yours makes it obvious that women are starting to panic #justsaying

The reality is that more men losing interest in marriage is like 'bad news' for a majority of females.

That will reduce their already small and diminishing pool of eligible men. So, of course, some will panic and express it in different ways or by promoting marriage at all illogical cost.

Missssii:
1. Marry a good hearted person.
2. Be a good husband. Don’t do to her what you wouldn’t want her to do to you.
3. Have some savings that can sufficiently take care of a family. Financial issues can ruin the best of people.
4. Do not have children for at least, the first year of marriage. Use that time to understand your partner and form a bond.
5. Do not have relatives or friends live with you for the first year of marriage. Visits shouldn’t be more than 3 days. Nosy family and friends are the number one cause of issues in young marriages.
6. Let God lead in all you do. As the head of the home, it is important you have a direct bond with God because even the Bible says the husband is the head of the home and the blessings flow from the husband to the wife. That’s why he opens his head in prayers while she covers her own. If the head is weak, the body is open to all sorts of attacks.
7. Do not start things you cannot finish. If you’re the type that doesn’t believe in cooking or cleaning, let her know during courtship so you both can plan your responsibilities. You cannot be Tony Umez in courtship then turn into Pete Edochie during marriage. It is a sure way to kill whatever love may exist between the two of you.
8. Avoid unnecessary interference from family, friends and most especially, religious people. Do what works for you both no matter how unconventional it may seem to others.
9. Be patient and honest but do not enable misbehavior in any form. In a calm and firm manner, let your partner know what they did to offend you and sort out all issues to avoid any form of lingering resentment.
10. Enjoy yourselves. Go on dates, knack in the sitting room, kitchen etc. You both are now one before God and should explore your bodies and minds to the fullest.

That’s all I know.

Your list is weak as it missed out one of the most important requirements:

1. Marry a woman who supports polygamy or will allow you sleep with any other females you find attractive as long as you don't leave her for that female.

Let more women be like that and you will see how much the rate of failed marriages will fall and men will live a more fulfilled life while being married.

Now will most women allow that? NO!

So we all see why majority of marriages are inevitably doomed?

I'm a single guy ( 32 years ) who's aspiring to get married maybe in 2 to 3 years time , but news about failed relationships and my experiences gives me cold feet , I can't handle being cheated on as I just got out of one toxic relationship . So I ask people already in marriages if they have for once regretted being married to their current partners , if yes kindly give your reasons and share how you are coping with them , and if no also share your formula towards keeping a happy home , so we learn . Thanks in anticipation .
yes the thoughts may come as usual maybe after a fight but the love always out ways the fault, so there is nothing to fear or worry about, for your marriage to work you should master the skill of deception. What I mean is don’t be too hot and not too cold be a man of few words and don’t take decisions based on emotions. Thanks

There is no option not to be alive or not to be a Nigerian from the start.
