MrSamsung: I dislike it when people do not take the time to read for comprehension. I said AGE is the only verifiable and agreeable means to test for Maturity. Do you have any verifiable measuring scale for this? What does cheating mean to you? I will presume you are a man based on your moniker, because your comment has feminine tendencies all over. May I remind you, because it seems you have forgotten. It is the biological nature of men to be with more than one woman just as it is the biological nature of women to be protected and cared for. Don't allow liberal views and feminists movement devoid you of your biological nature. If you want to argue with me based on your little experience of life and time on earth, please take a good look at all the male mammals and your answer is there. Male species of mammals don't stick to one female specie. If you also want to bring in religion as most of you do - there are plenty of evidences in all the widely practiced religions of the world today. Hence, how do you judge maturity based on this flawed reasoning of yours. Are you more matured, wise, financial buoyant than the Ooni of Ife, Sultan of Sokoto, Emir of Kano, Olusegun Obasanjo, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates etc. These are powerful men and leaders who have enormous influence. Excuse my bluntness, how old are you? I asked because I'm taken aback at your reasoning and opinions. 1 Like |

Boss13: 1st Bolded: who and who makes age the metric for measuring maturity especially when we are talking about people who have likely crossed set age of 18? Or is it your own skewed reasoning? Permit me to ask, even your father or elderly ones in your life have you heard them make such stupid statement? 2nd Bolded: Can you tell me the teacher, university, any school of thought, books or scientific journals that taught you that biological lesson? Or you are making an immature excuse or an excuse informed by ego? Or you just want to talk And your last sentence, I should even be the one to ask you how old you are even though I realized that you are yet a kid to know that being a community dog is not an age thing because chewing gum boys, young, old, poor and rich men can be one. 1 Like |

Maybe the women you met there are Africans. The default abroad is everyone contributing to bills whether you're the husband or wife except if the person is married to an African lady who will sit down and want the husband to provide all her needs and still help her babysit whenever he is off work. You're right to say that if you're not meeting up with bills , a foreign lady will kick you out but you'll need to qualify it- If you're not meeting up with your part of the bills. Boss13: |

MrSamsung: This will be my last response to you. I can tell from your previous comments that you are not well read. I would love to suggest a few research papers and books on the evolution of man, but I doubt you would read it and even if you do your opinion would still be skewed. Hence no need. Better still do the research yourself. As per Age being a verifiable metric for Maturity measurement, I am surprised you still don't get it. On this, you can believe whatever you want to. Finally, you are less of a man in comparison to those l listed. To disparage them in order to justify your opinion depicts how unreasonable you are when it comes to putting forth a counter argument. I questioned your age because your opinions are devoid of practical sound judgement. You Sir I don't know how old you are but certainly you know little about life. I can tell from reading your exchanges with me. Continue on your path. Shalom! 2 Likes |

cfree14: There is no specific answer to this... Age has little to do with connection. But it is always advised that you marry someone in the same generation with hug and a generation is 25years. |

smeag0l: Smile. Very typical. For you to qualify to be a matching mate to a western woman, you must be able to provide. I hope you read that part on my previous comment to this remark. Your financial plan with your wife/partner is now dependent on the agreement you have with her. For some 50:50, others 60:40, 70:30 etc. I'm glad you agree that if a man is unable to meet up with the financial obligations, the western woman will kick him out. Now back to Africa, or more in particular Nigeria. How is this any different? In many Nigerian homes, the man and the wife contribute financially to the upkeep of the home. The sharing formula is also dependent on the agreement between the husband and wife. However, in situations where the man can no longer provide, only on rare occasions, do the man lose the privilege of being in the house. This illustration does not deviate from the biological nature of women to be cater for. However, this illustration fits the middle/low income earners in both the west and in Africa, Nigeria in particular. For the rich and upper class, the man pays for everything even in Nigeria. When you say the default in the west is shared financial obligation, you are wrong. |

Boss13: My Dad is older than my mum by six years, his younger brother a Prof is older than his wife around two years. I have secondary school mates that married each other, I have university mates that married each other. Prophet Mohammed's wife was eleven years his senior and he did not marry again until he was well over fifty, I think after the first wife's death. A marriage opportunity that passed me by was to a university mate but my plan was to go after people younger by like five years, most women prefer men in their age bracket as first choice, maybe a year older or two. I wanted to make money before marriage, so my plan was someone like five years younger who will be in 100 level or so when I graduated but what works for one person may not be the path of another. I ended up with the best woman in the world who I am one year nine months older than. For one, you can only marry who you meet and there are billions of marriageable ladies you will never meet. So what is meant for you is what you will get no matter your personal plans. |
