Of what use is marriage if it's not designed to make me happy?

If one can't find happiness in marriage, why engaging in it?
same thing I am asking, now I want to marry honestly but whenever she is around I am unhappy I go through stress, I couldn't find. The reason I need her, I am single and unhappy and wanting to get married and that's adds to the problem of unhappiness what should I do

You can see the make-up of his congregants. Hardly will you see someone above fifty.
What he preaches is exactly what the members mainly youth want to hear.
In marketing, get your clients and you are good to go.

I don't think people are actually happy by default. I could be wrong though. Those people that appear happy all the time have just mastered their feelings. They have separate box for everything in their heads grin. If they're alone, they will open the box with their problems, once they step out, they will open fresh box for outsiders.

They're unhappy but it's hidden.

What I have come to understand is that happiness is temporary, we need to keep doing things that make us happy to be happy. Things like solving our problems. There's no stage one will get in life and they will become happy permanently.

And to be happy, we need problems grin. The best happiness comes from solving problems. Once one finds a partner, he or she will be happy because one problem has been solved but in solving that one, they have created others.

They will be happy for a while and that's all, to be happy in marriage, they will need to solve the daily problems that comes in marriage.

Popular Nigerian cleric, Pastor Kingsley Okonkwo has candidly told unmarried people about the complexities of marriage.

In a video he posted on his Instagram page, the pastor explained that marriage was not made to make people happy but was designed to make people better. He said marriage is a place you go to give, not a place to go to receive.

Pastor Kingsley explained that people must take care of things making them feel unhappy and unfulfilled before getting married and not hope that getting married will solve all their problems.

Some of you Cows never listen or digest Information you just rush to Talk the rubbish you have been holding in . Shut up Calm down and listen to the Message Don’t be an Ignorant Fool.

Some of these pastors like making controversial statements just to draw attention.
But what he should have said was Marriage does not guarantee your happiness. Some people find joy & fulfilment in marriage while others experience hell on earth when they get married, especially married to the wrong spouse.

The theme of his message is lost on you. You give more than you receive in marriage.. if not to your spouse, then to your kids. Your kids dont care... they keep receiving until they turn to adult to take care of themselves.

This is why I don't usually reply you Nairaland boys.
The person I quoted made it seem like women are the only bitters ones, that was why I asked him what about the men? You are the one who needs to use his logical part of his brain

I am sorry ohh. He is a pastor. And he is probably called by God but this doctrine is rubbish and unscriptural. The wise preacher, by the HolyGhost, informed us through Ecclesiastes 4: 9-12 about the benefits of marriage and these benefits bring happiness. If one person is cold the partner will provide warmth. If one falls his/her partner will be there to help and if two work together they will get a better reward than when one person works alone. If I have to be fulfilled all by myself and I can be happy all by myself then I don't need a marriage. Instead of getting married I will dedicated my life to serving the LORD and men but if I have a deficit in my life and I need help then it would make sense to get married.

Deficit was the basis for the first marriage. As perfect and good as Adam was God saw that it was not good that man should be alone. Every man has to find out himself the deficit in his life that makes it not good for him to be alone. And every woman has to figure out for themselves the man whose deficit they are equipped to effectively address. Herein lies the idea of a match. Marry your match and support each other. Leave all this motivational talk that are impracticable and out of touch with the realities of marriage!

What he said is the truth.

Happiness is self created.

How can you make your spouse happy when you're not happy with yourself?

You can only give what you have.
No matter how you have self happiness.. staying or living with someone that makes you unhappy can lead to a chronic and unseen depression.
