Being a man isn't just sleeping around with different girls... but going to get a woman traditionally to become your wife .
Go and marry and gettat from here.... So all d married men that are fooling themselves, carrying small girls and spending their hard earned income meant for their families on prostitutes are responsible and mature just because they are married 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Why are you desperately trying to convince yourself that you're not in the wrong? You don't need validation, you just need to be comfortable with your choices, cause in the end, they're yours to bear. Chuky7:

It still doesn't mean that's d reason he isn't married. D instance of Ataga and chidinma that I gave u, was Ataga not a playboy? Are there no married men that are still playboys?

I second this.
Please I am not irresponsible yes I said playboy but that's in the sense that I end up with different girls most times. I use precaution and go for check ups regularly None of these girls have been pregnant. I just don't want an issue that I can not handle like getting married and dipping outside which may actually make me look irresponsible. or worse The problem with responsibility is that the decisions you make today affect tomorrow. So being a playboy now and choosing to settle and have kids far later in your life is an irresponsible decision. This is because having kids at 50 doesn't give the best for your children. Believe me or not, time is part of responsibility. So to be responsible, you have to decide early if you will marry or not. Delaying that decision alone is irresponsibility. Responsibility is also bravery, imagine knowing you like women but you chose to have a stable family against your personal desires. That means you have made a sacrifice. That sacrifice is an act of responsibility to the wife and children you have. If you have decided not to have a wife or children, it means you have chosen not to be responsible for anyone other than yourself. Don't forget that you still have a responsibility towards your old parents and relatives. If you choose to have a wife and children, you are required to be responsible for them. It is always looked at as irresponsibility if you have no responsibility towards a person other than yourself. You have simply avoided any kind of responsibility so you can be said to be irresponsible. Any woman who dates you is dating an irresponsible man because you have no intention of assuming any responsibility in her life. In contrast, you are being responsible for using protection so that you will not become a full blown irresponsible man. The only thing here is that you are still only being responsible to yourself. I would say at this point, you cannot be judged as an irresponsible man, but if you let yourself reach 50 before deciding to have kids, you can be said to have lived an irresponsible life. 3 Likes |

I totally disagree with this. Marriage is not a standard to measure maturity or how responsible a person is. I'm not endorsing the OP play boy behavior, however there's lot of single people who are more responsible than some married folks. There's also a lot of married Playboy's, would you say they are highly responsible on account of them being married? Besides this days we see people just in and out of married, or father children they can't care for, will you call that being matured/responsible? And why most you take responsibility for another person. It's hard enough taking responsibility for your self and your immediate family. You can't shame a person for refusing to take up a leech. Lol. So single men are not men because they aren't married? This uneccessary pressure put on young people is the reason why we have broken homes littered all over. Good point |

michlins: more reason to marry early so as not to leave behind little orphans who can't survive in this jungle You people always take the wrong message/course of action. ![](/faces/huh.png) The logical decision would be to take care of your health, first. Lower stress and desperation levels so that you live longer, invest in your personal well being. Not to start breeding earlier. Breeding earlier only means that they will end up with more children by the time that they die, we all know how much Africans detest contraceptives and family planning. |

You people always want to make arguments when you shouldn't...
What is responsible about a man who is married and still cheats on his wife?
Being single and taking family responsibilities is different from getting married and taking responsibility of your home... The later shows more of manly behaviors...
On the account that people get married to divorce doesn't add up... If a marriage fails, the both parties are to be blame and that could be anybody's fault... And I don't take divorced people serious...
Why shouldn't you take responsibility on your kids and your wife? I grow up to see my father took care of me and my siblings and my mother who was a civil servant and I am going to also have kids and take care of them and my wife ..
If it's hard for you to take care of yourself... then you're still a kid and should go home and let your parents finish taking care of you... When you grow up, you'll be able to take of yourself... You point is not valid. Have you for observed why many marriages are crashing? |
