My greatest regret is that I didn't get married and start having kids earlier. My advice to anyone planning to get married will be do what you have to do and get married before your 30s if your economic situation allows it. There is no fun in waiting for so long once you are convinced you have found the right person.

No fun in having a baby when you are close to 40 or in your 40s

Life is not in Black and White.

What works for A, might not work for B.

Take your risk. Follow your intuition. Leave online opinion for kids.

Which is why I support polygamy. There is strength in having options if no1 is messing up switch to number 2. Never hear polygamists having regrets. Its the fools who chose to spend their life with one partner that always rant.

Do you eat 1 meal for the rest of your life?

One of my biggest regret in life is not having kids in my early 20's (infact even at 19 self grin), and the money dey to train dem. Having kids is different from getting married.

However, the red pill has radicalized me, so marriage and women are not my priority for now till I'm at least 40.

Just wish I had kids earlier. By now I for dey enjoy with my children. cry

Interesting.

Ordinarily, no one should regret marriage.

For the Christians, they ask husbands to love the wives, while wives are asked to respect the husbands. Perhaps, we should also ask women what they regret in marriage.

I can summarize the following that lead to regrets:

(1) Refusing to kill the butterflies that blind people from seeing dangerous flaws.

(2) Accommodating someone who does not see any reason to be a committed spouse.

(3) Lack of understanding.

(4) Infidelity

(5) Finance

(6) Mutual lack of respect.

(7) Lack of transparency.

First Marriage in 2012. Got separated/Divorced in 2018, remarried in 2023 to a Single mother. I must say I am very lucky to get married to her cos Single mother's like her is very rare. Union is blissful and going smoothly. Communication is very strong between us and we are compatible. We both love each other and she's my friend. No regrets whatsoever. We would be one Year old this Month. It takes two to tango. Just get luck to marry a woman that would give u rest. No regrets I walked out of my stupid first marriage. Lastly, she's very hardworking and not a Gen Z. She contibutes immensely to the family.
Congratulationsssss

I can imagine the mugu that sits in his car for 10minutes before going into his house all because of a bad wife, dancing on his wedding day, shinning his brown teeth and asking his unmarried friends the most foolish question in this current earth today "what are you waiting for?". One fool who asked him that question when I attended his wedding, I had to return home with the envelope I came with and never gave him shishi.
Wtf man shocked

Marrying from a single mother is a big big red flag. Marrying someone with alot of inlaws is one of the worse things you can do .
Why do you ladies hate your in-lawshuh Perhaps because you feel that having your inlaws around would prevent you from carrying out your selfish agenda of enslaving the man and making him do all your biddings.

Y'all know that only your husbands' blood relatives like siblings can genuinely and unconditionally love him and protect his interests; including protecting him from your manipulations. That is why you do everything to keep in-laws away. And women have successfully turned the narratives against in-laws and made the society believe that in-laws are the villains and cause of marital problems

those that says don’t marry for beauty, abeg wetin dey fit make pr**k charge? What attracts a man to a woman if it’s not beauty?. Mind you, beauty comprises of many things in a woman e.g voice, smile, curves, boobs, hips, complexion, height etc. na different thing dey make man eye turn for woman. As men concerned, Simply look out for a beautiful woman that possessed other qualities that will favour you. No ugly women, but every man has their taste! Don’t go after a woman in a drunken state… I come in peace!
U got the narrative wrong ,what he was saying is that d voice smile etc u are talking Abt should be only the reason to marry her ..

Look for her best part in terms of finance and kindness and someone that have bussiness prospect Etc that can add value to both of you financially etc or else u will still regret it

Most women don’t know how to handle power. Most of them are opportunists looking for the slightest advantage they can get over you.

If I meet a lady, first thing first, I appear weak and dependent and broken to see how she treat me. Her response will determine my next decision.

It’s the plain truth about most women. Never, ever be at their advantage.


I also have an instinct that demands total commitment from a lady before I ever think of falling for her.
Great wisdom

Somtie24: Pay attention to how your mother-in-law treats her husband-it could be a preview of how your wife might treat you.

Dean: Never marry a woman who doesn't speak good about her Dad.
Chances are high that you won't be able to please her as a man.


single stitch clothing: never marry the woman who doesn't want you to look good.
Agree with sometie24

Marrying for love, marrying for beauty, don't ever marry for any of these reasons if you are a single guy reading this, if not you will regret it.


Marry for:
1.) financial freedom
2.) economic growth
3 ) political expansion
4.) business growth and expansion

It is better to marry an ugly or average looking lady with a great career or business prospect that will help you solidify your finances and guarantee a great financial future for your kids than to marry a broke, jobless, visionless, lazy hot looking beautiful lady. I give you two years after you marry that your hot looking supermodel girlfriend, she will be naked in your front and you wont have an erectiøn shocked


Romantic love and physical beauty are not enough reasons to marry any lady, be warned, romantic love is a fallacy cool
two years is too long sef

Marry a woman who hates sex, Marry a woman who doesnt have a Orgasm. Marry a woman who is educated and who is working. But dont marry a woman you will depend upon.





If you can find all the above in a woman, you are good to go. She will be a Jewel to you.

Enjoy the life of your head. Feeding is part of it, the way to a man's heart is through his mouth, she is feeding you because she doesn't want you to die young and to increase your strength, health and mental wellness. My wife is a pro at that.

Most times, bad news make "breaking news"

People like sensational bad news to feed their bais about a topic

There are many marriages out there working and working well. If marriage was as bad as they say, then why do people get married every Saturday like u rightly pointed out....

Marriage cannot favour everyone, if it favours the person fine, if not then move on.

You would not say because fire can burn one's house , one would refuse to cook his food or because accidents happen, you would trek for lagos to kano

I feel ypu my man. You smart and you know the drill 👍
1stDoggystyle:
If she wants to leave, let her leave.
They believe they can do well as a single parent or as an unmarried woman. Having sex with several men and begging on whatsappp for 2k.

Perhaps that works for them since they have several men to rely on. If they beg 20 men for 2k they can probably rake more that 20,000naira.

At least she's not doing that under my roof. Whatever sooths her. Let's see how long she can do that.

1,Marry a woman that loves to keep a home and be married. You cannot keep who doesn’t want to be kept.

2, Marry someone that values your efforts no matter how little and chooses to be with you regardless . Remember , there will always be someone better than you outside .

3, Marriage is a liability, if you have a dependent wife . Your growth will be slow.

4, MARRY SOMEONE THAT RESPECTS AND ADORE YOU . That way, you will have a reason to be selfless.

5, REPEAT NUMBER 4 .
