Are you happy? Please be truthful.

Marriage is a journey, and it has its ups and downs. But overall, I'm happy with my marriage and the life we've built together.
It’s not always easy but it’s definitely worth it🥰

Women pls marry men you look up to. Women are drawn to some form of leadership and power. Dear man if you do not possess the one that fascinates the woman you are going for, you will share her eventually.

I totally disagree with this point.

Woman should learn to submit to their men, if she cannot submit to her man, let her go back to the street where different men will be passing her around.

Times have changed. We are no longer in the days of Nebuchadnezzar. Most guys these days just want to go out to hustle, come back home and sleep.

Any woman that is not satisfied with a simple man today, eventually Na Street go dey pass her around

You think marriage or relationship is not more expensive ?

if you calculate the bills you will pay in relationship and marriage you will realize that it's not worth it for what you will get.

My brother, sorry to be honest with you. If you haven't divorce your wife, you didn't learn anything in that marriage.

Women aren't capable of love/marriage. They are manipulators, using love/marriage as a trap. Kindly, get sense and stay away from love/marriage.

If you are married, divorce her immediately. The fact that she hasn't show you pepper/shege now doesn't means she wouldn't show you pepper.

Women are very pretentious in nature. They can pretend for 20, 30 or even 40years. But one thing is certain, that shege they are cooking for you, you must eat it when the time is right.

I want to advise you with all humidity, kindly divorce your wife, no matter how hard it is or how emotional you are. It's for your own good. Later you will understand.

If you aren't married, God is on your side. Never, ever allow any girl or your emotion to deceive you into marriage. If you want children, have baby mama or better still, adopt or use IVF if you can afford it.

Peace!

A word is enough for the wise.


My brother,
Your personal experience(s) in marriage cannot be an evidence that marriage is evil.

It's quite unfortunate that you view marriage with such lens.

One thing I'm sure of is that every marriage go through a season of tests. How you handle the tests have serious influence on the lifespan of the marriage.

Many are not prepared for the season of tests in marriage.

I agree with No. 9. A woman can never respect or love a man she has to provide for. She might for a short period of time, but if it becomes the norm you have lost her.

Most women don't mind having gender roles, what annoys us is when we have to provide financially and still have to play the role of a home maker all the time. Marriage, like life, has to be balanced!

Like I said earlier you are right with your line of reasoning about the issue but then it is beyond your understanding because you are a woman and not a man.

You are talking about who gets more approached here but I am talking about natural instincts, natural phenomenon.


You think it is by women's discipline that even though they get more approached by different men for romance, still more women reject such approaches more than men?

It is by discipline that men chase women more than women chase men all over the world?


You think it's by discipline that a boy of 12 years starts liking girls and getting erection and start looking for a girl to hump while girls of his age are running away from boys?

You think it's by discipline or coincidence that Presidents, kings, Prime Ministers, male billionaires, male CEOs, Bishops, Pastors, Imams, etc spend so much just to entice girls to sleep with them but the female ones control themselves or do theirs in a more limited way?

It is by discipline that Queen Elizabeth remained faithful to her husband but her husband could not despite their status in the world?


It is by discipline that Hillary Clinton remained faithful to Bill Clinton but bill Clinton being US President with so much attention on him couldn't exercise same discipline?


No wahala

This is the way Nigerian men think. They think they were born to flirt and sleep with anything available. But the truth is that, most women think that way too.

But we live in a society where a promiscuous woman is seen as a wh0re and the same kind of man is seen as a virile man. So women restrain because they know the society is less forgiving of their indiscretions.

Have you met a girl / woman who has absolutely nothing to lose? Then you'll know men are women are equally sexually promiscuous.

You marry a woman that is doing well in her career making same as if not more than you and contributing a significant portion of the finances to run the home and you expect her to submit to you? Because you are who? God?

The Nigeria system and culture has relegate women to the kitchen as house wife, procreation object.
Women of old were satisfied with such position but today ladies and men has refuse to understand that things has changed alot.
That is why is easy to hear talk from commodity based ladies like "Can you take care of me?" , "Can you afford me?" .
And [b]all the men thinks of [/b]is the bdsm style he's planning to experiment on her.
Nothing else lol grin

I have zero pity for whoever is in turbulent home.
They all claim to do the right thing but they didn't.
I will rather go for a resourceful toxic lady than going for a "Can you afford me?" Type of lady.

Come which school you go wey dem no teach you say has and have/ refuse and refused no be the same things?

A wise street man doesn't need anyone to tell him Marriage is full of Baggages upon Baggages and it favours the female gender the most.

This doesn't mean marriage isn't cool and it wouldn't still stop most people from getting married.

I usually come across some married poor/rich men i'm older than by five or more years looking like they are my uncle lol. Some have grew gray hair. I will just be smiling in my mind.

Biology, emotions, social conformity are the driving forces behind marriage.

If you examine it from a rational perspective and apply some logical thinking, it makes little sense to get married especially as a man.

Age has nothing to do with it.

If a wife feels she is too big to submit to her husband because she is earning more money or because he cannot provide, then let her go and look for a man earning more than her.

Simple.

Man's life is full of so many things to sort. Woman should not come and add to his problems. If a woman feels she is too big to submit, leave her alone go find another woman who is willing to be submissive,.

This is 60% trash talk.
Don't marry a lady from a single mother, if you should do be careful, they have a crazy ideology about life.

You're the provider doesn't mean you should kill yourself. Number 1 important thing in life is food. Once you can feed yourself, your parent and children and other billing are not compulsory but try attend to some grin

A wife’s role is to support and not to provide. The moment my feeding no longer becomes my husband’s problem, he ceases to be my husband. A man who is fking me must take care of me. He’s not entitled to free sex just because he paid bride price. He can as well collect it back and get the eff out of my life. The way I regarded sex before marriage is the same way I regard sex in marriage. Sex is sacred to me. You can’t be fking me kpa kpa kpa every night in the name of husband and expect not to care for me.

11. Find something doing, don’t relax to answer Oga wife, do something, bring something to the table

12. I learnt to keep quiet during argument because I know if I talk and he talks back, I’ll feel more hurt…
It’s not every fight I should fight.
later on, I walk up to him and present my case, we resolve.

Marriage isn’t work, it’s commitment jare
