It seems lots of folks in Nigeria are getting married for the wrong reasons, hence the plethora of negative complaints about marriage on frontpage. So I ask again, what are the reasons a man/woman of age should get married?
As a prophet I want to get married so I can shout and order my wife around and threaten to place a curse on her if she misbehaves. But she must have big nyash Sha because I love big nyash it makes me see go gaga and kabash more.

This I have seen.

Synergy, many people underestimate the power of synergy. 2 good heads will always be better than 1.

A good couple will outperform a single parent in all ramifications under same condition. Marriage acts like a team in all aspect of human engagement and a good team outperforms a single player.

Companionship and reproduction.

A girlfriend can give you that. The question is why marry her...and the answer in most cases is to fulfil religious requirements

Marriage is a wonderful thing. The reason why people see it as nonsense is because sexual immorality is as easy as drinking water.

So to your question... reasons why I feel or want to get married are.

1. Companionship. There are times when you would want to talk to someone, just sit, talk and pour out what's bothering you to a listening ear. With the right spouse, you'll always enjoy geninue companionship, enjoy gossips together. Baby Mamas or olosho cannot give you this cos what you have with them is purely transactional.

2. It lowers your risks of contacting STDs. An older cousin of mind told me that for the past 12 years he's been married he has never been treated for any STD. If you're married to a faithful partner, and you're faithful to your partner as well, you would never suffer from STDs.

With Baby Mamas or oloshos your heart would always race wherever you develop any strange feeling or symptom after having sex with them. I've read countless topics here on Nairaland where the guy in question would tell us how the condom bursted and he wasn't aware and how he started seeing some rashes on his manhood. Such a person would never have peace of mind until after a medical test. A marriage to a good spouse eliminates all that.

3. You can plan together . I'll use my parents as an example. When my dad was building his house in the village, my mom contributed a great deal to it. Even the first car he bought which was a Jetta volkswagen, as I grew older I learnt that it was actually my mom who bought the car for him, because he had so much on his hands and didn't want to miss the car, and the funny thing was that my mom never mentioned it not even once, it was my dad who told me.

With the right spouse, you can achieve a lot together, you can build, set up businesses, invest together and support each other. Olosho or baby Mamas cannot give you this cos whatever business you setup for them is theirs and theirs alone. And wouldn't support you with a penny when things go south for you.

4. Raising your kids together . Raising kids alone is very tasking. I have a 4 year old nephew (he'll be 5 this year) who I try to use to see what parenting looks like. There was a time his mom (my cousin) came with him to spend the weekend in my place (Friday to Sunday), that was when I understood that it takes more than depositing your semen into a hole to raise kids.

From waking him up, to bathing the child, to actually spending ample time together with him talking and bonding...this isn't something a baby mama can do. It takes being married to the right person for you to achieve this.

5. Eating good food . This night I just came back from buying beans (elewa) and bread. Most times I feel very lazy to go into the kitchen, there are times I can stay up to 6 months without visiting my kitchen.

As a married man, your wife would spoil you with good food, not the junks you've been struggling with during your bachelor days. The first time I ate Nkwobi in my life, was in my uncle's house, and it was prepared by his wife. Imagine having a wife who can prepare all that, believe me, by 6pm you're home cos you'd be perceiving her food right from your office.
Good Reasons .

1: Enough Money
2: you find a beautiful Virgin (Nigeria/foreigner)
3: the female is not virgin but agree to be sex slave as a 4th wife or 3rd
4: She must not be a Nigerian girl but if she's Nigerian she must accept condition of number 3 as a 3rd wife/sex slave I helped out from whoring in the streets.
5: marriage is important to give more validation to how one gets his children.

Re: What Are The Reasons One Should Get Married? by bluefilm: 11:50am On Jan 09, 2023
As a guy, there is absolutely no reason at all to get married.

This is because marriage will rob you off all your freedom.

Your life will all be automatically reduced to taking care of your wife and your children until you are no longer able to do that.

If that is what you want for yourself, then go for it.

But as a lady...

You get married so that you can level up your status in the society.

People tend to treat married and unmarried ladies differently most especially when it comes to giving them respect, with the married ladies being given more respect than their unmarried counterparts.

well i believe the complaints arise from misconception


most people base marriage on feelings/emotions ......they forget "love is not enough'

to get married you should be self aware of your good and bad side and also be financially ,emotionally, mentally committed to the other person

the 2 of you should be able to agree on your finances ,how u wana raise kids ,how many kids and how u deal with extended family ,and your love language

and you should aleays take note of what stage of life your partner is in si u know how best to support them

this days people marry out of pressure to become mr/mrs or beat loneliness.......its is better to stay lonely than end up with a partner who cant communicate or be sensitive to your needs

being rich is not enough love is not enough .....you might just find yourself in a rich prison

Maybe because of unfettered access to pucci.

Cooking

And procreation.

Maybe.

I wander what makes you think that marriage will usher you into unlimited access to sex.

I guess you are still single.

You will understand better when you tie the knot.
