The marital clock being against you here means that: men who are the source of your benefits are scarce. They're like a gold dust, the oasis in the desert, a highly valued creatures. Hence, the reason why y'all women scramble around them for marriage.

As it is now, a woman's chances of getting a man are higher at a younger age, not after she has finished whoring around.

Life has made men to bear the burdens of marriages, and we are trying to change the narrative. Y'all women should enjoy while it lasts.



Oga if you no wan marry nobody hold you.

Which one is life has, life has. If marriage no benefit you, no do am! undecided

begoniaa if I miss out anything in my response to The boyMessiah. Kindly help to add .

Let's help a brother who is willing to learn cheesy

kiss kiss Well done.

Be like that one dey ready to learn... grin

Ermm, Messiah Olugbala, Sir T, Persi has said quite a whole lot and I wouldn't want to "overflog" it again... just three things I'll add...

- Don't be obsessed about being a person of value to anyone...actually. As you can see from the mental plagues of our resident NL alfa mails, in trying to be high value, they end up being shitty to everyone, and they are always gulping rules here and there... that's one of the fastest ways to running one's life off track... following rules stipulated by different people here and there... do this, don't do that. This is what you should say to her, this is what you should not say to her...

So, be a person of value by not trying to be a person of value to a lady... completely let go of the idea that you have to be some way for a person... I am not saying it is a bad thing, but that is simply a secondary result/goal.

The point is to be yourself for YOURSELF. For your own betterment, happiness, joy, growth... and that is when you'll see that you'll find yourself attracting the best of people.

- Pay attention to who you listen to and what you always take in... your mentality and outlook on life is priceless and you should protect it as if it is a WHITE GLASS- can easily get tainted, can easily get broken.

- Read self-development and wealth books... smiley This one is my favorite. You have a smartphone. There are thousands you can download online that'll help you begin to understand yourself better.

Books on making money, books on managing your emotions, books on relationships, books on personalities, etc. Just Google it and download them.

Remember too, don't be obsessed, do it all in moderation and pay attention to even the kind of books you'll download to read...

You're well on your way to building yourself and figuring out your values and moral codes.

NB: there are some websites for men and by men that I used to follow, but I can only remember two right now to share with you:

www.markmanson.net
www.askmen.com

These ones are pages I consider a POSITIVE model for masculinity, not reddit incel and redpill pages. So, good luck. cheesy

This is relative, I can not type what every woman as it differs but I will try as much as possible to type out what some sensible women I know look out for in a Man.

The first thing that strikes a woman in a man is his Comportment. When a woman meets you for the first time, she notices how you carry yourself. Your carriage speaks a lot about you. 1) Your maturity: how you deal with people around
2) Your confidence: How you see yourself
3) Your Aura: What you are all about.

This is why in first 5 minutes of meeting you a woman can decide if she wants a long or short term dealings with you.

As you move on with each other, she checks your level of knowledge, intelligence, assertiveness, discipline, self control, your plans, your goals, your conflict resolution ability, your rage level, time management, financial management, communication skills, leadership skills, your resilience, your vulnerability level, how you handle difficult situation, Your playfulness, Your emotional intelligence , ability to play a lover and a teacher etc. If you can beat her in all these areas, i.e be above her in these areas, believe me she will respect you and want to have you. Because not only will she want to enjoy all you have,she would want her children to enjoy these traits and have them too.

There could be more, and some of the listed may not be needed depending on what she wants. But most of those things listed are what women secretly look out for in Men.

As for what can be of value to Man, that will be on you. You only know what you hold dear and what you stand for.

You owe me ooooo cheesy

They'll be there to wife you and you'll gladly accept because at the end that's what you desire most,that's what every woman desire most, TO GET MARRIED. Bt then when you see the guy who's different from the desperate,wailing broke simp you married,you'll cheat with him because you're only loyal to your emotions not to the your desperate broke wailing simp of a hubby,that's y many married women cheats today.

Having the average Nigerian worth billions would be so wonderful to the country's economic growth. And yes! Women won't have to labour through stress and tears to raise their kids and live life.

It's a Win-Win after all!

Humans would always want companionship as they get older but when the chips are down, loneliness hits men more than it hits women. But because true love is scarce, people are now seeking true love in an offspring. This is where the women win the game.

I always said it that the next 10yrs will be interesting.
The first man after being alone for years decided it was better to die with Eve than live alone forever. Some people think they are wiser than Adam and the female gender is only good for hookup or producing babies. Limao.

Isaiah 4:1 isn't a future prophecy. It has already been fulfilled. It is a continuation of Isaiah 3:25-26
Isaiah 3: 25
Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty in the war.
Isaiah 3: 26
And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she being desolate shall sit upon the ground.
Isaiah 4: 1
And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach.
******************************************

Currently, male population vs female population is 52:48 (google is your friend before you start arguing). For Isaiah's prophecy to happen, it should be 14:86 (1 man to 7 women or more even).

Husbands are scarce, men are not scarce. Same way wives are more scarce but women are not scarce.

You never can tell what the future holds. Besides, I don’t need to be as rich as Ned to marry a much younger girl.

My dad isn’t rich, but he married a very young girl, and that almost shattered my family. We had to accept it eventually.

Importance of marriage.
1. Reproduction, marriage helps with continuation, it gives rise to another generation.
But in this era of baby mama!?
With baby mama, the whole idea of having offsprings has been fulfilled.
You just to be so serious with your children, bring them up in a decently way.
You don't necessarily marry your baby mama, the whole idea of having offsprings has been fulfilled sha
2. Marriage creates a lifetime helper for you
Ehen, marriage doesn't guarantee a lifetime helper anymore, that's why you need a genuine circle of friends, no matter how small it is, even if you're just two or three, these people will have your back anytime, anywhere.
If you are of the type that don't have comforters, gistmates, companions and someone to let out your thoughts with, then you probably need to change your circle.
Marriage is necessary, but not compulsory in this era, you can live a sound, interesting and purposeful life without it, just have sense and the right people around you
Anything that rocks everyone's boat, your own happiness is the main deal.
Re: Am I The Only One Finding It Difficult To Have A Relationship by BobbyZrealist(m): 10:24am On Jul 15, 2022
I thought been all nice and good increases your chances of getting better friendships and relationships- Costly assumption.
It only made me appear like a sissy.... trying to be what the society tags ideal.
So I switched back to my Default settings,cocky,brave and a suptle IDGAF in me.
Most times now I feel very good about my self.
NB:Be emotionless when you dealing with Women....as a Man if not,you will develop High BP in no time.
Also never try to understand Women,take them the way they come, beacause you will never understand them,forget what people say by "take your time".
Always feel good about yourself and carry yourself high.
That void cannot be filled by a Woman,it can only be filled by an inner believe in self-worth.

Point of correction... he's still looking for a meaningful relationship at this point. So the fact that he cannot find a suitable woman for the relationship he desires does not mean he can't find a woman? He's meeting women rather, but none want what he wants, so yeah, he *CAN'T* find one...

Men are scarce? But this OP is not; you are looking for a wife; Posty56 is available and plenty other guys on this thread are looking for a relationship.

In my early days I used to have girlfriends, and it was quite a deal, back then in school.
As I got older I switched to being used to hookups and ashawo; and the sorts, because I realized all I wanted was sex.

Years past, I've outgrown this hookup thing, and value creating relationships with women; which obviously includes sex, but is more serious and could lead to something in future.

What worries me is that despite all my attempts online and offline to find a relationship material woman; I realized that almost all the ladies I toasted wanted nothing but hookup. The moment I appear serious; they disappear or try to play mind games.

Please guys is this a normal thing now in our country, or it's just me experiencing this. It's really sad; and hopeless, as a normal relationship will help my morale and prepare for the future.

These days that women are looking for husbands up and down?

Maybe something is missing in your life that you need to fix first. Women no matter the age and level love to marry a man who is comfortable with his life, especially the ones they know can give them and their children good life. If they notice you don't have this,they will leave moment you want to get serious.

Besides,you can go for 25yrs and above women, this group understands life better than younger ones.
