You wont understand the advantages mentioned until you feel it. I am 40, my first son is in the University, wifey is ever young, like 25 years and best friend cos we started early together, even without much money, we trend together with the children, able to run things together and not stone age to computer age, still handled vector and quadratic yesterday, we easily understand each other, with ever fresh ideas, they drill my brain, i drill theirs, she struggle her wears and accessories with the girls, they learn from us (Myself and Wifey), We bring resources together to build a home and invest in their future, Its always fun and we are still much active, abeg, you just wont understand early marriage is the best. Of what joy is it at 55 years still struggling for school fees? Guess i need to count my blessings again. May God protect and spare us all.

See where Nigerian brain reach! Your rat race in life is about making your children graduate and all when you're still "very young". That's your idea of having lived a life? Oh god, this country is a joke. Nigeria will ultimately sink under the enormous weight of the people's stupidity. Foreign countries should bar us from entering their countries. What a people!

Getting married early comes with its share of advantages. Early marriages, which were at a time rare, have started becoming common now. Starting your life early with that one person can be quite a challenge for a lot of young boys and girls. However, when you tie the knot early, there are several advantages that is beneficial to the individuals as well as for the couples.Having a good sexual rapport with your partner, learning a lot of practical things in life and taking time to have kids are some of the advantages of getting married early. When you get married late or at the nick of time, planning a future together happens at a fast pace. But, early marriages aren’t this way, which is why it is better.Modern couples prefer to tie the knot soon after the approval of parents.Here are some advantages og getting married early.



Early getting married advantages are:

1.Easy To Adjust With Partner: Younger people adapt easily to changing environments since it is easier for them to break bad habits as compared to people who are older in age.

2.You Are More Fertile: After the age of 35 years, you become less fertile. Women who get pregnant after this age face numerous pregnancy problems. Therefore, getting married early saves you from this trouble.

3.More Time With Partner: You get to spend more time with your partner when you get married early. Settling for an early marriage also helps you to know your in-laws better.

4.Get To Fulfill Your Dreams: People think that marriage puts a stop to fulfilling one’s dreams. But, if you find the right partner, one who understands your needs and goals, it is better off to get married early.

5.More Time For Lovemaking: There is more time for lovemaking when you marry early. This is one of the main advantages of getting married early. It is at this age where you also get the time and energy to try out new positions to please your partner in the bedroom.

6.Look Younger For Longer: When you get married at an early age, people will soon start to compliment you on your looks. This is one of the advantages of getting married early.

7.Brings Out The Maturity: Getting married young brings out the responsibility and maturity in you. Both the wife and husband become more mature and responsible and settle into their roles easily as life moves on.

8.Be Energetic Parents: Marrying young also has the benefit of having children early, making it easier for the couple to raise them since they themselves will be young and full of energy and will be able to relate to their children more.

These are the advantages of getting married early.

KevinDein:
such an arrogant moorroon you are.
Of what business of yours if someone else sees marrying early as an achievement?
Who made you the authority in defining what a successful life really is?
If you are as civilized as you'll like to pretend to be you'd have at least learnt to respect people with differing opinions rather than hurling insults all over the place.

You are a mumu nau. Anyone with a brain will easily figure out who is defining what a "successful life" is in terms of his own stupidity and who is stating that people and circumstances differ. You are a typical example of all that's wrong with this country because you don't know what should be universal values and what should be left for each man to do as pertains to his own circumstance. You're in good company in failed Nigeria

KevinDein:
shut up. Ignorant morroon. No one gives a fuuuuckkk what a moooron like you thinks.

Early marriage is one of the best decision i had made.

Of course, I didn't expect you to get it. Oh God, I UNDERSTAND Nigeria but they don't believe me. To you, marry, born, have grandkids as the philosophy of life is like moving from pry 1, pry 6, Jss, sss, university etc. So the one in SS3 is senior to one in primary 6 and the latter has to automatically aspire to be in that SS3 and so on and so forth. Now, this is despite my explanation to you. Let me break it to you again, THERE IS NO LAW THAT YOU MUST MARRY AT ALL EVEN AT 100 OR TO HAVE KIDS. Oprah get moni; she never marry one day, no kids and she's over 60 and a dollar billionaire. You know, I've said repeatedly that until we re-examine our understanding of what we value and what matters in life, we will continue to be in the problems we're in. Go and read. Leave what mama, papa, uncle, friend, nairaland and Nollywood says and think with your own brain and look at other peoples of the world and how they live and if you try hard enough, you might just get wiser. Nigeria was bastardised in the last one generation and it affected the youth. Instead of that to reflect on their outlook on life, they're still trying to copy their parent's generation where life was much easier and straightforward and indeed the abuse of over-reproduction then is why we're suffering today as no one is farming again and an ever increasing population is reliant on "oyel moni". Look: many things dey and it's so tragic that instead of grappling with serious issues, Nigerian youths are just preoccupied with music, Nollywood and reality TV glitz. I no fit shout. I only regret I'm trapped in Nigeria

Lucasbalo:
As a guy who married at 23, you have valid points. The only one I disagree with is that they divorce often. Been on the marital game for over 20 years and the love between us is stronger than when we got married. All the advantages you mentioned are absolutely right. You make your family earlier and enjoy your years together starting in your mid 40s to your old age. I will do it again if I have to.

Pidgin2:


Oga well done but life is not 1+1=2 all the time. God forbid tragedy should meet you where you are. What about the couple who married early and after many years lost all their kids at once to a fire out break or a motor accident? My aunt who sees her two kids as her life insurance just lost one after 20 years. Na so life be, good luck sir

Early marriage is advantageous to women.

opelyem:


I must confess, I admire your philosophy. But I have a reservation. When one is approaching old age, how will such fellow be living his/her life? I mean no child, no spouse, no in-laws. Who is d person living for? I also want to believe sir that you are not eunuch. So how do one satisfy sexual desire in an honourable way in such condition. I am sincerely asking out of curiosity.

blackprowler:


I did not say it's a crime to marry, or even say we shouldn't marry. I am not married because I couldn't find the partner and wherewithal to be so involved. My problem with Nigeria remains the insistence on everyone being the same - no diversity. The person who doesn't have a wife/husband or children of her/his own will live just like those who do; just like someone who had a spouse who has died. My mother had a husband and children, but now in old age, husband is dead and children are grown up and out. She lives alone like those who didn't have. People who didn't marry their whole lives are rare and hence it is most likely they have siblings themselves, nieces, nephews, inlaws - they're all family. Who are they living for? Who is anybody living for? You're just following the normal reasoning here which is not based on anything but repeated inanity over time. Sexx? Sexx is what happens when you penetrate or are penetrated. I've done it quite a couple of times but I've never been married. If you follow what some people from man's ignorant past dictate to you as to how to live your life, not my fault. It's good to marry, but not nearly as the Nigerian society dictates it and harangue you into it and run away when you end up in problem as a result. Childbirth is worse: 2 children per family or anything more, you're a problem to the country (I don't mean it that strongly, lol). Some may have 3 or 4 but those barren or having none, or one shouldn't be demonised as this society does. IT IS NIGERIANS AND THEIR VALUES THAT ARE DESTROYING NIGERIA!

kentochi:
ok but it come with its cost
am an eye wiriness
my wife was just 20 yrs when we got married
and i was also in my mid 20s

lovediehatelive:
please what are some challenges you faced or are facing from your early marriage....

I want to learn

Femsyn:
Like someone opined earlier on. Life isn't 1+1. When i left secondary school, i couldn't gain admission until 4years after. During this period, a couple of my friends had gained admission, infact, as at the time i was gaining admission, some were already rounding off their programmes. Fast forward to 13years later, i can say i have a better job with two master degrees and married. However, for these other guys, some graduated with 3rd class degree, some are still in school for their first degrees(MBBS) as we speak. Some had to dump their first degree to start afresh, some were laid off to start again.

So, my point is, am i better off? are they better off? it doesn't matter. What gives me fulfillment is different from the next person. I would rather give birth to a "Zuriel Oduwole" in my forties, than have a drunk with no future ambition as a son in my early twenties.

For those claiming children as an accomplishment of early marriage; Have you thought you could actually get married early and not be blessed with the fruit of the womb until much later? Even if the children come early and s/he is neither useful to you nor the community? What if (God forbid) s/he dies unexpectedly?

What is important is, when God says its time, do not be found wanting... Early marriage, late marriage is a function of what works for your destiny and God's plan for you.

MsFaith:
True! Finding the right partner is the problem, else I should be married already.
