VTJN:
yes you are absolutely right

My dad got married @27 and their marriage today is 37 years still counting forever

I guess something is foundamentally wrong with this generation guys honestly

I never wish or pray to raise my kids in this country

Expecially the female ones

You still think guys are the problem?? your opinion is yours truly

babyfaceafrica:
This depends on a lot of things not just age gap. What's the age gap between joke silver and olu jacob?.. Close to 20... Life no balance. You can be age mates with your wife and still not have peace

There might be odd cases but almost all the marriages with age gap that I have been opportuned to see from the inside, are like that.
Secondly, you don't live with them and know how they act in reality. Social media deceives a lot. You only see what they want you to see.

VTJN:
Yes bro

You are absolutely right

What i mean by an 18years old girl having the prerequisite to build a home is being matured enough to be a wife and a mother

She actually needs to be his companion before moving in or considering him

On the aspects of age gap, you could be right though but differ

Different stroke for different folks

Omotola jolade got married at her young age and her marriage still glows. While someone might marry at her mid 20s and didn't marriage may not work out

It differ

Okay

I understand age is just a number, but all numbers are not equal still. The society tend to fix a standard for everything. Most guys will want to get married on or before they turn 30, but a couple of uncontrollable factors preclude that from happening.

What's your take concerning marrying at 35 for guys. Do you think it's a bit late?

I can marry at 50 and have a child anytime...e no concern anybody how I choose to live and make my life go,Na God get final say,we can only plan....Do you let me do me...I don't live for the society.

GOFRONT:
Na Babymama things now...

Marriage is now a scam.

Best way to go blooda ... The behaviour of most of our nowadays girls is nothing to write home about at all . Most of them aint loyal not to talk about understanding the essence of relationship talkless of marriage. Useless girls everywhere

So by 60, your kids will be entering uni? By that that you will be retired and not capable to support them in university.

You reason with your brain not your Anus.

Ugonna62:
So 60year old cannot support someone in the university? Is that what you mean?

Don't mind them joor.

People who think like these are the stingy ones amongst the Civil servants.

There is a saying amongst the Civil servants that "they would not train their children with pension".

Who said pensioners are broke?

What of people who married early and still decided to have a child in their 40s?

stupidmod3:
stop thinking like a child.

I swear, God bless you for this reply

It's not late or abnormal.

Infact I'm not sure I can marry a man under 35. Men are very slow with sense. That 35 sef, some of them still don't have sense.

Verysmart101:


He is saying the truth bro.This is wat people don't with the way people die during their 40s to 50s it should really be considered

are all ur family member in that range dead? u obviously fail ur classes alot cause ur reasoning is very low.
if u are even educated

dingbang:
So by 60, your kids will be entering uni? By that that you will be retired and not capable to support them in university.

If you marry at 35, at 60yrs your first child should be around 24 or 23yrs, second child 20/21yrs and your first child should have rounded up university and the second about to if not done too.


Nigerian youths of today should make it a mandate not to give birth to more than 3 children, 2 is best, 3 maximum.


The best age range for a Nigerian guy to marry is 32 to 38yrs.


Ladies should be 27 to 36yrs.


So 35yrs is a perfect age for a man to marry

Bros u even try dey think am at 35 we single and balling no time for DAT shit

Preach. From my vast experience, I will advice you to extend the age cutoff to 40. Most below that age lack the needed cognitive development to function optimally as an adult

Not every one is a 9-5 wagecuck

Skyfly007:
Stop wallowing in ignorance with your fake research bro....

It should be you who should stop wallowing in ignorance. A simple search online would have prevented this open show of shame

StPete:


More so, research shows that the best time to give birth to healthy looking kids should be from 18-28 years

For the woman. He’s talking about men

PAWG:



35 is right bros. My dad is 77 and comfortably paid my younger bro’s fees (Bsc-PhD) and refused all form of assistance from us.


It’s better to marry late than bring kids to this world early to suffer, making money could be a competition but starting a family shouldn’t be.

Wow

naijapips02:


Grow with your kids. Don't be a grumpy old man that can't relate to their struggles. The mortality rate for Nigerian men is usually below 60. You want to be alive to see your kids succeed and not suffer for nothing.

Your point don’t make sense, and you know it. It’s a shame for your kids to struggle with you.

You want to be alive to see your kids succeed and not suffer for nothing

What does this even mean? Marrying late means you’ll suffer for nothing?

Oh! You’re training your kids so you’ll enjoy their money right? Fake love


Like you dropped from the sky an old man and never had a youth to understand their struggles right?

StPete:
Do not let anyone deceive you, marrying at 35 is a tard late. Looking at the present state of Nigeria, except you have planned billions down for your unborn children, you will probably have to keep struggling in old age or after retirement to keep them alive and in school.

More so, research shows that the best time to give birth to healthy looking kids should be from 18-28 years

True talk.
Thanks

SenecaTheYonger:

But do you also agree that the older one gets the weaker and less active the semen

frozen70:


Once a guy is getting married at lanything after 35yrs, he must hustle double to meet up so that when the children starts entering secondary school, he must have finished establishing his family by building house

Lmao, you're thinking of it in a backward direction.

Ideally, a serious man's value / career / business worth increases with age, especially when he his not married because he has an advantage of his youth, time and money to save and invest because no kids are involved at this time. He can jump from business to business to see which one benefits him without thinking of children and family.

A serious man at 35 already has his life, finances, education (Msc PhDs) etc figured out before this time, so therefore he makes more money per hour than a younger man which inturn means he doesn't have to work twice as hard. Even as a business man, at 35 your business should have really established that you make more per day.

Again at 35, you don't have to double your hustle really. All you need is just to manage your existing investment or career, that's all.

It takes less time to build a house when you are older than younger because you have more financial resources and connections.

My brother marriage no easy ooo,the day you wear that ring it’s like you have handcuffed yourself for life, e better say make you enjoy small before you handcuff yourself.

Anyone that lives this life based on what people say or think without considering his own convenience will live a life of suffering. That's just it. If you arent confident or sure of who you are going into marriage with or when you're going into it,don't damn do it.else you'll jump out same way u jump in

limcar:
people will talk

Late.

Looking at the situations right now unlike before, if your wife fails to take in, one chance.

By the time you're 60 your child may still be struggling to pass JAMB.

Muhylonaire007:



You still think guys are the problem?? your opinion is yours truly

be sincere with yourself bro

The spike of domestic violence in Nigeria today is mostly perpetrated by men/husband just because of their masculine nature

Though some women might be so provoking and irritating. but nonetheless, physical abuse shouldn't be an option

My mum used to say my dad has never abused her physically nor verbally

Are you telling me my mum is that perfect woman that makes her hubby not to abuse her

Absolutely not..

You needed to see the way and manners guys and married men treat their wife/girlfriend like a piece of shit

Like what a lawless country we live in

These same guys travelled abroad and they behave absolutely well over there

They don't try nonesense with their ladies

I honestly frowned at domestic violence, child abuse and rape no matter the circumstances surrounding it

we wey don dey pursue 40 yet noe girl gree marry us

Shut it. If you an an 80 year old man with an 18 year old kid, how can you relate?

Marry when you are very young. Grow with your kids. Parenting is better when you are still very active.

All you wrote was like thinking in a backwards direction
How many men of these era fits into all you mentioned, including you considering the economic situation since this regime ?
