For a Believer & Male:

1. You can build a prayer and a Word altar that will be consistent and will bring you to the knowledge of God.
2. You can save and adequately plan your life without interruptions.
3. You are able to build and grow your career without any distractions or considerations of "what will she say?". Once you meet, "what will God say"', you are fine.
4. You can make a 2 year, 5 year growth plan.
5. You can build friendships with males and females that will be driven by value and respect not feelings.
6. You can focus on family, etc., so that when you are married you would have done most things you wanted to do for them.
7. You can pray and make excellent choice when you finally decide to be in a relationship/ get married.
8. You can find your God-given purpose and walk and build capacity in it.


There are many, many useful benefits. It is a season that should not be rushed or delayed.

Forget all these. It’s not easy being single don’t let anybody deceive u. A man can’t function well with the loving of a woman. If u like make all the money in the world, if there’s no woman or girl to share beautiful moments with by this I’m not talking about sex. You will realize there’s and emptiness within that only the love of a woman can fill.
Oga speak for yourself please!
You can't function without a woman, not men.
What about the men like saint obi women have sent to their early grave? Does don jazzy not look more happy to u than some men in miserable relationship? Don't generalize pls

■ Very few benefits I must say. For one you are accountable to no one circa less responsibility. I kind of enjoy being alone when I am broke.. One mouth to feed and shii.. Less resources to go round so it's wise I don't involve any other person.
1. Since when did being accountable to no one amount to being less responsible? Most of the responsible folks I know are in fact single whereas a good many of the most irresponsible folks out there happen to be married. undecided

Marriage is perceived as the taking on of additional responsibilities not previously bestowed on one by life itself meaning that you add to your previous load when you get married. So long as you are alike on this planet life bestow you with responsibilities. Adding extra responsibilities on top the burden life already gave to you by your own hands is what relationships help do. Ofcourse in the end, not all those who take on additional responsibilities bear them well in the end as many even go as far as to abandon those responsibilities they signed up for in the end. undecided

Exactly. Everything in this life comes with a price. Solving one problem brings another one.

You see this life, regardless of how you spin it, there will always be 2 sides..

You're dating, you'll pay the price..

You don't have a car, you'll pay the price..

You get married, you'll pay the price..
You don't get married, you'll still pay the price..

You working, you'll pay the price..

I love myself the more. Low Tolerance from the opposite sex. Any slight stress noticed from the opposite sex, I cut off.

I love myself too much to partake in drama.

exactly!

So if you are not going to financially support or help in any way why giving the unsolicited advice.so the bottom line is if you are not going to help the person, don't give unsolicited advice.its disgusting and intrusive.

I remember one of our church members was trying to throw a jab at me and she asked me "why are you not married" and I said why are you not pregnant since your years in marriage.ahe got the message,for offended and I didn't give a fvck

I remember seeing this particular comment on Instagram. It went thus:

When you comot for relationship, e go be like say kidnapper release you.”
That would be when you commot from unhealthy relationships. It seems the author of that piece has only known unhealthy relationships. undecided

There are very many good relationships out there that when you loose them it is almost like you lost a piece of yourself and you only seek for ways you can have what you lost back. undecided

Lol.. Minimal responsibilities also
That is not true at all. There are single people out there who bear way more responsibilities than their married counterparts do. Marriage or relationships allow you add on responsibilities but it does not in anyway ensure you will as an individual become more responsible or bear the added burdens well. undecided

Theama:



Can't function well?

Can you boldly say this holds true vice versa?
undecided

Let's be realistic. Women's love, as well as other kind of things, can fill the emptiness but after a while, there'll be a longing for something more.

If one has close friends and family to share the beautiful moment with, that emptiness won't be felt. After all na even David for Bible talk say him friend( Jonathan) love dey "more wonderful than the love of a woman"



It safe to say one can't function without God's involvement and human(regardless of gender) support. Na only God fit fill the emptiness wey you go dey completely satisfied.

Note: I'm not against Marriage.


We are not talking about God here of cos God is supreme. But one on one, I’ve seen so many violent and aggressive men become calm, I mean extremely calm since the got a significant other.

A time to build yourself, discover yourself, enjoy your independence and achieve something tangible.
A person who isn't happy and fulfilled when alone will never be happy and fulfilled when with a partner. They may likely be worse off and make their partners miserable.
I believe people ought to stay away from intimate relationships until after they have first realized this. undecided

They do bear burdens since life gives us loads to carry. That is why it is very unreasonably to create additional burdens to add to an already overloaded pile for the sake of it. undecided
