Before our time, we had women of pride. They were reserved with dignity and some sense of responsibility for their husbands only.
Nobody count.

They were well groomed, virgins,respectful, caring, less dramatic, loyal to the core and hard working. They were Mentally, sexually, emotionally, psychologically and morally intact. At most 21 years they are married.

Back in the days you don't need to date them before marrying them. Because they were pure and undiluted it was the responsibility of any fortunate or lucky man that marries them to dilute them. So when they are married they are married.

But today, what we have are boreholes, loose girls, runs girls, sex tools, slay queens, drama queens, sex for money, very irresponsible set of things. No dignity, no value, heavily dependent on you, no respect, disloyal and poorly groomed.. what we have now are morally, psychologically, emotionally and sexually battered women littering everywhere... body count na no go area.

They don't need to be rewarded with marriage. But if you must reward them with marriage, you must date them for a very long time to be able to know them inside and outside. Else you go cry later!

No wonder at 25yr - 30yr they are still I'm their parents houses causing problem[/b]s.

[b]Don't let anybody deceive you to marry a stranger. Na you go regret, no be your pastor or your adviser.


Never make the mistake.

Lol. I share your frustrations bro, but don't forget that life in general has changed, not just the women but men also.

While we like to point fingers and accuse the other gender, we mustn't shy away from mending our own ways too so that when we express our righteous indignation, we can do so with no guilty conscience.

I wrote this thing somewhere before:

As the men folk began to solicit more and more sex from the women folk; enticing them with all sort of "bribes" and gifts,

The women folk also fell for it, saw that it was good, and started to monetize their love and their bodies.

That's how we found ourselves here today.

There are still decent and undefiled women out there.

They exist but they are extremely few.

If you find one, you are a very lucky man indeed.

Remember some people broke up after dating for 7 Years and you can't fully know a woman even if you date her all your life, she fit still shock you.

Date first so you get some life experiencs before going into marriage proper or else you wants to dig your early grave or e go choke or shock you before your eyes go clear

Nothing on earth will make me marry without dating. No matter how she tries to pretend or hide her bad character you must see the handwriting on the wall if you ain't stupid.

Nobody is perfect, but if she didn't meet my passmark I will dump her ASAP. Dating gives you the opportunity to know who you'll be living with. I have dated several girls before and know how women reason.......For you to finally pick one of them means she's the one that will cause less trouble.

To avoid problems u need to know ur wife to be. Dating doesn't mean sex. It's getting to know eachother. So in my opinion u must know the person u desire to get married to.

If you must marry, marry someone who has the fear of God.

When love fails, and times are hard, the fear of God will keep the evil tendecies and human vice away.

All these church goers are worst and promiscuous. I don't trust any lady again.

I can state here categorically that women with the fear of God still exist but the problem is that men do take such good women for granted.

Am a quality wife material 1000 yards but unfortunately Am married and hubby can attest to it. Because he doesn’t just provide money for i and the kids, he also made me a signatory to his account.�

I still prefer dating it gives you guys a chance to understand each other, things you can't cope with, you talk about it and if it won't work out you pull out

Straight marriage doesn't give you time to study each other and once you are stucked into the marriage you may not be happy with the whole thing yet you won't leave because you don't want people to talk about it

In the biblical days, there wasn't anything as dating or even courtship.

People just go ahead and marry.

It's when people began discovering the complexities of marriage, that they started introducing dating and courtship as alternative and preparing for marriage respectively.

Courtship isn't biblical!

If you like someone, go ahead and marry! God doesn't have a specific person for you, He may have His choice though.

Love will solve any problems that emanate after grin

Love is key o. If you don't love, no try marriage

Can you define love?

Even our ancestors that marry without dating have their family do due diligence and investigation on who they want their child to marry.

I don't have a problem with outright marriage but one,and that one problem could cause a serious disaster in your matrimonial home;sexual incompartibity is the problem,a big risk that one could be exposed to should you decide to opt for outright marriage.

Well said.

However, 4 months to 1 year of dating in order to strictly get to know one another through open, strategic convos and healthy arguements is okay by me before any wedding ceremony.

Them still dey ...only God gives a virtuous wife...but before you seek for a God fearing wife u should first be God fearing yourself....
Like attracts like.God loves you and if u open your heart to his saving grace he will be your saviour and order your life....as for marriage,u don't know tomorrow,but God knows,so u should rest in him and trust him....I believe praying, a change of mindset and a renewal of thought pattern will help us in marriage....ROM 12:1&2.. remain blessed

Anything that works for you.

I have seen people to dated for 9 years and their marriage na higihaga.

I have also seen people that got married less than a week of meeting and their marriage is very OK.

I know no marriage is perfect but some na war and some are peaceful.

BTW, I wouldn't mind outright marriage.
So, choose what works for you.

During marriage counseling, they told us how elder men in the church used to do crash sex courses for the groom and importance of lubricants before reception or few days to the wedding.

Do with the above info whatever you will.

Every one is entitled to his or her own opinions, to me I think the thing to do is get a girl you like first then work on the friendship till it blossoms to relationship (dating or courtship) where you know little about her while begging God to lead you. If you feel that she is worth making your better half or the mother of your children, then go ahead. You cannot just see a girl on the street which maybe you like her physical appearance and attributes then immediately tell her you want to marry her. She may not take you serious or see you as the one's who use marriage to deceive girls just to get into their panties. As I said earlier, everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
