U cant buy property in your baby mama's name now...but I have purchased property on two occasions with my wife's name without any need to regret it. But u dare not with your baby mama or girl friend

The honest truth is that you married folks are wicked. Most of the times, you guys are in an unhealthy marriage but will sing like bees into the ears of singles pressuring them to get married and suffer like you. You even had to make unverifiable statements to cajole others into evil. It won't work Mr. And the bolded are all lies.

This is the truth. Most of Them are wicked beings, looking for who will become miserable like them

With all this long talk, you still didn't mention one EXCLUSIVE benefit men have to gain from marriage.

All you wrote is a bunch of fallacies, marriage is just a Name,a term and a contract.
It doesn't make one automatically successful as you may think. Being married does not magically make one motivated to reach any goal,it is just a Term and a Contract where you devote your entire life, energy and resources,being committed to a woman who's only Goal is to have a Slave(who sees himself as king,mental slavery if you will) and Continuously milk him dry down till the very last drop.
Ever wonder why most husbands are thinner than their wives, while the wives look like baby elephants? It is because the man has been tirelessly working day and night, to Feed a Parasite whose only value to give is sex. Yes,there are women who offer way more than sex,but the Majority wins the vote right?


Just curious .... were you in a failed marriage? ... or seriously played in a relationship? I just can't imagine what a woman has done to you to make you so be fetching this ehmmm..... unhideable hatred for women.

@ topic.... OP is such a good writer... story teller.... paints such a clear picture. I guess 'he just followed the advice of many.... didn't invest much in really searching for a wife... chose a woman to marry instead of a wife. Again... nice read!

A quick question though
And I hope I get answered.
Why is it that most males are the ones that keep complaining and regretting marriage?


Because it's the man that bears the brunt. The finances

So in bearing the brunt and come still get partner that doesn't give peace of mind, with horrible sex or no sex at All

You're so combative without actually getting any point across, he only asked one question, give one tangible advantage of being married.

In all your rant you were not able to mention one advantage of being married over being unmarried, there are some positives indeed, but you weren't even able to mention any?

How does buying a property in another's name or keeping your life savings in another adult's account amount to an advantage? Did you make the 6.6million because of your wife's involvement/contribution?

The way you kept shouting impregnating and baby mama, how did you conclude that not being married = impregnating baby mama?

The idea of an argument is to make a point for or against, not to nag your way to "victory", I'm afraid you totally didn't make a single point.

Now that I have read the entire story, I have this to say. You blame that other people tricked you into marriage by saying that marriage life was sweet. Your experience was bitter though.

Did you ask those people how they made their marriages sweet? Or did you believe it takes a wedding ceremony for a marriage to be sweet?

You say that your single life was awesome. Did the things you were enjoying before you got married fall from heaven? Or had you worked for them?

Why do you people put so much effort into their careers but believe that a good relationship/marriage must fall from heaven? Why are people willing and ready to go the extra mile for their career goals but not for their marriages/relationships/families?

The truth is: if you want your marriage/relationship to be sweet, be ready to work for it.

I wish those other people would have told you that too.

How do you engage with someone who doesn't want to engage, someone who is set in his/her ways?

You can buy property in your name when you are single &there is no fear of anybody sharing ur property when you are divorced. Not every single have baby mamas. Marriage is not by force; it is by choice, by interest which is usually based on personal &maybe selfish satisfaction. Singles by choice, have peace...

And aged brides....a girl marries these days from 28+ within 5 years she's no longer very attractive but yet u still keep hv to bear that financial brunt which men are now hesitant to do....

But in the olden days they married earlier as mostly virgins and that provided an incentive for men to bear the financial brunt.....

Wow, good write up. Personally I think some men are tricked into that 'union' and they should have their ignorance to blame.

If you must marry, baba marry a virgin, you will grow to trust her. Not a repented harlot, trust me.

But if you want children pls and pls just adopt. Do not bring a child in a shitty arrangement you call 'baby mama, daddy', for the fear of God. Am talking from personal experience now.
Thank you
Do you know that you can't legally adopt a child as a single in Nigeria?

The very beginning:

This is one question I probably know the answer to. I could afford a flat, My cable subscription was on point, I hardly ran out of data, except my smile plug was temporary offline, and I could very well feed myself with all the sort of meals I wanted. I also was far above average for a cook.

I really was not thinking of a wife at all. Ladies came and went. I knew while women can be pleasurable, living with them forever could probably cause a strain. So I avoided them for nearly 30years of my life if not more. I obviously was not a Saint, yet I tried my best to do no harm.

Then the scammers came. I can remember all of them. They saw my good life and wished me suffering. They painted the wrong narrative. "PonziHater, you shouldn't be cooking all this soup yourself and doing the dishes everything. "You need a woman to soften things up", when they found me in the restaurant eating "ogufe", they blurted out loudly that I was just a wasting money when I could have a wife to easen things up. They made vague references men who were supposedly living happier lives because of the women in their life. All these men were disgruntled, but kept a fake smile to sell a false narrative

The truth it was it was all brainwash. I felt good, happy and free. I couldn't afford the best designers, but my shirt were "red tag", and my pants were decent. I could fuel my car, and "afford" any lady on the daily. I truly then did not understand the softening of life that they claimed Marriage will bring, but with their emphasis, I thought of a near heaven, where lovely meals, a lot of sex, children calling me daddy and a wife to walk to in the park. What I found going forward was just like being at the peak of orgasm in a brothel, just at the point when the police were breaking in. It was some pleasure subsequently followed by gross imprisonment. It was going to hell on a 24hours drive, and then returning only to be stopped in the middle of nowhere by robbers. It was the most distasteful experience a man could see.

BRATISLAVA:


You're trying to explain something to single boys from scattered homes, poisoned by the red pill. Beyond their indoctrination they have no idea about life. They have been told they have nothing to benefit from marriage, and they have swallowed it hook line and sinker.

Can't you see they've already determined to fail at relationships and marriage with their selfish reasoning? How can they enter marriage looking for exclusive benefits, why not marry themselves then? How can people be so myopic? Who on Earth that wants to be married goes into marriage with such a mindset? No wonder marriages are crashing. These boys crash them, then say they are crashing without dealing with their attitudes in marriage.



This is an intelligent narration keep it up.
We have a lot to deal with when it comes to people of this generation who think marriage is a place where women should be suppressed and stripped of their freedoms.

Hmmm... I'm sorry you had to go through all that. To put it on record, not all women are like you described your wife. Also, there's a danger of a single story as we cannot get your wives side of the story for a balance.

With all due respect, you sounded so immature especially as regards your expectations of marriage. Also, it takes two to tango. What were your own shortcomings? Furthermore, you wanted to keep living like a bachelor while married.

I do not in anyway condone the alleged behavior of your wife but you were also not ready mentally for marriage. I believe that is because you didn't know what marriage is about. Anything that is not understood this days is called a scam.

I sincerely begin to wonder how your parents lived.

Plss take time to read about marriage. It would be better if you and your wife could read together. Also, go for counseling with your wife so you could live the remaining years of your marriage happy.

I could make recommendations on books and a marriage counselor if needed. Just send a PM.
