What did PoliteActivistewrite about this ?


I would really love to read it.


He writes and debates nicely and wisely.

I Believe This is The Ultimate Reason For Starting Threads like this.

For Debates And Sensitizations.

Thanks.
Here's what I said about it:

Only a single person can be this authoritative about marriage being wonderful. (See quote below).
A married man can only write this if his wife is reading while he writes

Marriage CAN be a good thing (never wonderful) with the right person, but even then it is still dampened by the fact you are trading your freedom and private space for it!

MessiahOfAfrica:
True.


It is a worthy sacrifice that elevates you into more advanced mandated responsibilities.

Many People who want to remain single do so to run away from the surface responsibilities.

It is when you get in that you truly know that you are in for the real deal of redefining yourself to becoming "not just a husband" but a "providing father".

Problem is most people slowly realise they made a mistake - to one extent or another

The5DME:
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?

Procreation, sexual fun, family name and inheritance.

YourHighTension:


Then what are the reasons why one should get married?

The only real reason is to fulfill societal expectations, otherwise, none! See sreenshots below

miqos02:
you can't have a family outside marriage.

Then what do you call this below

PoliteActivist:


But you can have both without being married

It's illegal with it's attendant problems. Wait until someone's daughter dies in your house without marrying her then you will understand you are a thief.

If you stay single and u are sexually active that will be a sin u know! If u can’t do without women marry and stay faithful in other to avoid sexually transmitted disease.

zedegit:


It's illegal with it's attendant problems. Wait until someone's daughter dies in your house without marrying her then you will understand you are a thief.

Illegal how? Explain.
So if you are married someone's daughter can't die in your house, including your wife?

To avoid sleeping around.

sofiscatedmoron:

He's single but has a "perfect" family. Just one famous example

2ndchildhood:
He's single and still has it all

Ronaldo is not single.

PoliteActivist:


He's single but has a "perfect" family. Just one famous example

U are rich and famous like c Ronaldo,no wahala ,and u are a white man

Religion and commitment

Religion: We do so because we fear God and follow his word.

Commitment: No one would want to share a woman he truly loves with another.

Marriage is a beautiful thing only when you meet the right person. Otherwise you'll experience a bit of hell while on Earth.

That is why it always advisable for one to take their time before getting into this union called marriage. True love last forever.

sofiscatedmoron:

U are rich and famous like c Ronaldo,no wahala ,and u are a white man

If you meet someone and you both decide to ignore society and have a family, marriage becomes mute - and rich and famous has nothingbti do with it

Marriage is for continuity, research had it that men are more happier when they are alone.. if you doubt me invite babe make she come stay with you for one week.

Best thread on NL so far

Bearfruit:
the main reason for marriage according to the book of books aka the word of God is to avoid fornication.(to keep your vessel holy as the body is not for fornication)
If you are a eunuch there is no reason for getting married.
As for bearing children,it is not every marriage that is fruitful so that is not a valid reason.
Then companionship is what you have already between friends, family members etc.
Marry for the right reasons!!!!so help you God.

Companionship between friends & family is still different from that u will share with your kids & spouse. The companionship gap between friends & family becomes wider as u age. They will also be dealing with their immediate family & have less time for u when u need them most.

PoliteActivist:


You can have all these without marriage

. Until you are old that’s when you will know the importance of family unit.

Seems you don't know definition of marriage. People have family units without marriage. And why must you live your life based on old age?? Does everyone reach old age?

Lovebliss2:
Love, Companionship, reproduction, raising your own family.
