WHY do couples rush to get married based on their age, not based on the quality of their relationship?

You will see someone rushing to get married just because they are 30years old.


As much as I'm not a fan of rushing into marriage, there are a number of factors that require one to try and fasttrack things. Life expectancy in Nigeria is 52 years, meaning that by statistics, the longer it takes to get married the lesser the time one can stay married, enjoy children and grand children, beat wealth, beat inflation etc.

Dating for long does mean the marriage will last. My dad and mum only knew themselves for few days before they got married at a young age. They have being together for over 40 years without any headache.
there was headache but they used panadol extra instead of cutting off the head.but you see this present generation, they would rather cut off the head instead of using panadol extra.lol

I don’t believe age should determine when you get married ,but sometimes in a long run age does matter, I got married at 28 and my wife was 23 and that was after 1 year of friendship turn bestie that later dated for 4 years before marriage ... tie the knot since 2014 and we still goin strong ,thinking of doing it again once we clock 10years

She doesn't owe you the explanation. That she didn't tell you doesn't mean she don't have a reason!

Don't mind him. Asking her the question is even ridiculous.

all are the fault of that sex... females...they live and dream a Cinderella lifestyle, they dont like reality at all...

they dont think a guy shld ever be broke..they create a dream guy in their mind and refuse to marry anyone else untill they find that type of guy believing social media post of there is someone out "....there waiting to discover u created just for u"

they only become sensible when the age start looking very bad...by then they agree to everyone that is ready..foolish girls everywhere...

one dt is a management staff banker just this past Saturday married a broke guy in my compound who drives drives a marketing bus for a wine marketing firm..his pay is 70k ,he smokes weeds like food, chases women up and down..not good looking physically, but ready to marry her..

guess what..? sh is 39.. and probably rejected alot of better guyz at her younger age..only to settle for a far far less guy..

only uninformed unexposed foolish men pity women..

they are the cause of their problem with their myopic mind....

This is one of the reasons why most marriages collapse before they even begin.

What does it mean for a marriage to collapse before it begin?

Like 30 yrs is a kid to you...shouldn't a 20 yr old be married in a normal setting where things are working

Please help me ask them ooo!!!
What else does a 30 year-old has to offer me...you started menstruating at 12 or 13 years and I will now marry you at 30. That means the best part of your reproductive life has been spent without me in the picture(virgin or no virgin, your breast would have sagged, and internal changes would have happened as well)....if not that all these girls less than 24years still "have their eyes outside no",I'd so much loved to marry someone less than 24yrs old

When I look at female doctors and I laugh, they think I'm smiling at them,they don't know I'm actually laughing at them. Most of them have hormonal issues, they will still want to marry late and the number of guys they can get married to is limited. Seriously, sometimes I pity them but most days, I'm just laughing at them!!!

They do it with such a complete mad rush as if people get paid for having children in Nigeria!
MrBrownJay1:
a DESPERATE person thinking about their body clock AND wanting to have a legitimate child (aka while being married) wont use their brain, thus why many women rush for marriage at a certain age, with any donkey whatsoever.

It's based on circumstances and their level of understanding.
Slomgbojo of life has hit some so bad that they settle for anything. Some are victims of waiting for a long time which has activated the desperation each time they remember age.
I reject bad marriage, amen.

The donkey you mentioned are males. Very hilarious the way you described yourself and others with 3 legs. And it's men that marry late the most, not to make fun of you guys cos I won't lie, life no easy.

You have great sense of humor, if I may ask, how old are you?

I got married at 30 based on target I set for myself as a young man. Seven years on, it's working out fine and the best decision ever.

Go and fix your life and stop making excuses.

You can NEVER find the right partner. Once you're old/prepared enough to marry, just look for any available demon and marry and carry your cross afterwards.

There's no right partner anywhere. In every successful marriage, one partner must have sacrificed his/her rights and become an id!ot for things to work

If you're waiting for the quality, right, partners, you'll never marry.

The only solution is to marry your first love especially if you're his/her first love as well. Every relationship after the first love is nothing but transactional relationship

See your thinking...warped!

So, you are finally agreeing that there are many donkeys among Nigerian men.

the problem here is not the donkeys, the real problem are women who are seeking for "creme de la creme" type of men but due to desperation settle for yeye men who aint remotely their spec.... aka sistas who were seeking for a caring/faithful/trustworthy tall, sexy, fit, rich man to marry but ended up (out of esperation) marrying an abusive/disrespectful/unfaithful short pot bellied ugly broke brotha.

Whatever marriage is based on, after a while the aftermath will still be the same.
