Everything in life has it's pros and cons. If you can afford to marrying early is good. But not too early as in 23, 24.. . I believe a man should be at least 28 before settling down to marriage.

Dated for 9 years
Married at 28
Divorced at 42.

No regrets but knowing what I know now, I'd have never got married.

I love your response.

It is so insightful.

At the end of the day, it all depends. I'm in my 30s and I'm unmarried.

My grandfather married in 1944 at 32 and his marriage lasted 30 years till his wife died in 1974. Married again in same 1974 and it lasted 12 years till he died in 1986.
My late uncle married at 25 in 1970 to a wife 7 years older than him and he lived with her 42 years (dying in 2012).
His junior brother (my dad) married at 30 and the marriage didn't last 8 years. He married my mother and it didn't last 5 years.
He brought back same wife and he nearly died in the marriage. He kukuma say, "I no do again" and abandoned everyone to live the solitary religious life he always wanted to live (almost became a priest and last minute it went south).
His junior brother, my uncle, who was 12 years and 8 years their junior, married at 36 and his marriage is 30 years this month.
He's 66 and his last child is 18 and in University.

My aunt (father's elder sister) married a man at 42 (in 1967) when she was 19, and the marriage lasted 40 years till he died in 2008.
My aunt again (father's junior sister) married a man at 38/39 in 1980 and their marriage lasted till he died early this year, after 43 years.


At the end of the day, it all depends. Some work, some don't.
I encourage those wanting to marry to always inquire from God in their quest to get married. My own family was destroyed due to bad marriage decisions.
Father, step-mother, mother, siblings; all alive but scattered, with no atom of emotional bonding.

Marriage is not about age but it really depends on money though you don't need all the money in the world but atleast there should be income coming , in which you can build on

Some 24 years already own a house and business, some 50 years own nothing.

It's not something we can run away from I think starting ontime will make it easier before the bones gets weak ,

The pressure that comes from marriage can also push one into success if taken positively

Because I have seen people who become richer in marriage, life it self is faith we must start from somewhere and God take it on.

May God bless all married men financially and also provide for people who wish to but scared because of money .

Nope best decision I have ever made, 4kids n existing the 5th, 3 boys n a girl, business booming n my career is progessing well, the boys are doing very great in school and are each others competition, 2013 till date has been a blessing because that marriage reposition my focus to new goals knowing the responsibilities I got. You are making a mistake as a man if you go being 30 unmarried. Yea my first son is in jss1 and I'm just 35, my wife 30 and trust me that family i created is bonded strongly, you can't oppress anyone cos we re all coming for you including my 2yrs old daughter that believe has teddy monkey can protect us all, don't worry. I grew from the street n now I'm a top accountant where In the organization I work, I know the street well and I'm putting my kids through the rope to learn the street without going into the street. Belive me if u meet that woman and you amhave a job, go for it, no job? No problems, use your brain and work your hands to bleed that money. Marrying young is heaven when the money and trust exist, I never ever regret marrying except for the period I went on training in geneva where I regretted being married cos I was Hot as hell n wife was in Nigeria, my vows couldn't let me believe me even tho the girl that was right there was Ethiopian and was so willing.. that's my only regret so far[/quot

Don't mind him.

Most of them want others to join them in misery, I have a young friend who's getting married soon not because they are in love but because of societal pressure and respect he hopes to get from being married.

regret what?I got married at 24 and now I have two graduates,one still in 300l and another in nursing school unizik,what I may have regretted is if I didn't marry my baby when I did,like my old man use to tell me if the opportunity is there,take it.but it is not easy to transition to bear such responsibility at that age needs disciple and the ability to handle what life will throw at you,I remembered in 2009 when we decided to have our last issue and lo behold it was twins,sometimes life itself can be mischievous and will just decide to test your ability and resolve

You can't really say.

If you ask them if they'd do it over again, going back in time, most of them probably would.

I got married at 27, I will never advise anyone to get married that young, I have two kids now am an low income earner 90k per month after my wedding, everything about my life stop, it's now all about the family, so many opportunities to take risk but looking back and seen I have a wife who depends on me and I have two innocent kids, I have no choice but to remain where I am, achieve all you can achieve before you think of getting married let no body lie to you, my mental health is something else right now, all because I want to be responsible, chase your dreams achieve at least 60 to 70 percent before you settle down, I wish I could turn back the hands of time I would never be married at 27 at least 35.

If he have a good job there's nothing bad at that age to get married,but what i about marriage is all about maturity and God grace nothing else
Re: Men Who Married At 24, 25, 26, 27. Do You Regret It? by Monaboo(m): 12:33am On Nov 30, 2023
Most people that marry at that age marry out of 3 things.

1) Unplanned Pregnancy. It came and they had no choice or were forced to marry the girl. For example Yul Edochie and his ex wife May.

2) They were from rich homes, had money or parents money/connection at their disposal. They were not struggling to find their feet in life like the rest of their age mates at 23.

3) They married becos they did not want to commit the sin of fornication. Atleast, that's what they used to tell us in church.

In all, the magic is not in getting married but in staying married.

Married at 29. I'm very fresh now at 58. I and wife only. No school fees etc. My son married at 28.

Thank God for my salvation I would have been a hotcake for the daughters of Eve. When they see my DP they send messages but the road is closed.

Re: Men Who Married At 24, 25, 26, 27. Do You Regret It? by Carlyboi(m): 4:08am On Nov 30, 2023
To each his own but a dude getting married at age 25 or under would never make sense to me. Even women who get married at their late teens or early 20s struggle and sometimes experience internal conflict and this isn’t necessarily about money.

Ideally the prefrontal cortex isn’t fully developed until you’re in your mid 20s making life altering and life changing decisions at that stage could be seen as foolhardy or ended being disastrous unless you’re lucky.


You should give yourself time to grow and have decent amount of life experiences and be mentally prepared for that big leap lest it’s gonna be your Achilles heel. Some women who get married early to men 5 years or more older than them do harbour resentment for their spouses and see them as robbing them of that young adulthood stage and by confining them in that box of marriage.

At the end of the day do what works for you, I personally believe,marriage just like a lot of significant happenings in the existence of men is largely predestined if it’s for you it’s surely gonna happen at that supposed time. So if it’s not happening don’t force it,enjoy life and go with the flow be happy and explore. Attain success, be productive and lead a meaningful life and be fulfilled. After all there’s no higher goal or sense to life it’s a facade,a mirage, it’s mundane,a vicious cycle we all have to go through the moment we take our first breath till we kick the bucket.


Cheers.
