Thank you. You are a good man. However, it'll be nice if you don't deceive any women into thinking you are marriage material when you are clearly not.

You can call me anything you like. I don't deceive people and I believe we all have choices. I'm sure you know open relationship exists and if cheating on one's partner will make you less a marriage material, then 95% of guys are not worthy of been called that.

Shanda, Spike no yab you na. Not being marriage material is not an insult. She's just commending you for your honesty.

@topic. The trick is to try to vow only the things you can uphold and not try to uphold the things you vow.

Our parents made thesame vows and by the grace of God they did not disappoint God.
Why is it that nowadays we find it difficult to keep this vows-my answer is this
1.Ladies this days have no regards for womanhood.They dress any how and also nicknamed decent dressing "OUTDATED" what a shame for this generation.That is why they can walk unclothed on the street and it doesnt matter.Ladies nowadays are very SEDUCTIVE-tight fitted dressing,half naked dressing and lots of seductive character.
2.Obidience to GOD and to constituted authority is now barbaric.
3.Westernization has completely destroyed this generation.
4.Parental care and love is no more.


Brothers,dont blame married Men that run after them.The SEDUCTION IS TOO MUCH.
Lets rise up to the reality.
Thanks. sad sad sad

why get married if the seduction is too much?

Well,if the couple puts a great deal of effort into it,I suppose it shoudnt be much of a problem.
Communication,understanding and long-suffering are key tenents without a doubt.
On the hand,eating the same pie everyday requires a lot of sexual discipline and 'burning the flesh' competely.

Pause for a thought,if u are with ur acclaimed Mr/Mrs Right why would wanna break the vows u cherish
I think compatibility is highly essential here thou.

It is clear that we are in the end times. Nobody has respect for God's Laws anymore.
Nobody said it would be easy! Temptations will always be there/. Jesus was tempted in the wilderness but He overcame it.
The Bible says that You would not be given any temptation that you cannot handle. However we are humans and make errors all the time.
People have become too selfish and self absorbed, that is why marriage vows are hard to keep. No self restraint and discipline.
I am unmarried but im not the kind of person that wants to taste every fruit on the tree. When I love someone I want to be exclusively his and him to exclusively mine.

I am beginning to lose hope in society and in this generation. The immorality is just too much and people are not even ashamed.
Sin is now something people are proud of and boast about. Just go to the romance section and you will see how people are flaunting their fornication, infidelity, promiscuity, abortions, and all sorts

May God have mercy on us all o!

I was commending you, not calling you names. Does 'thank you' have a different meaning these days? Nawa o.

Thank you jare, baba agba. Now him, I am calling names. grin grin grin

What are the acceptable vows according to you? I guess you're one of those that think the laws need to be re-visited.

marriage is meant for matured minds and it has a key word which is LOVE. If truly you love your partner from the depth of your mind you should be able to uphold your marriage vows. http:///9dW18q
