Kobojunkie:Well, it goes both ways. There's nothing silly about those reasons and my brain is fully engaged. If you run because of these, what if you end up needing them yourself. Good healthcare or none, no one wants to experience what it means to be alone in old age. Even in developed worlds, hospice is the last place anyone wants to be. |

Re: Marriage Is Gradually Losing Its Relevance by Kobojunkie: 8:56pm On Apr 15 |
Olorilolo:First of all, let's stop lying abeg! Hospice is not the last place anymore as more and more people make plans ahead of time so that they can get the best care in their last days in many of these places. ![]() Second, most people are more than aware these days that chances are slim to none that another human being would go out of their way to show them that level of kindness even in marriage. Go ask the many who were abandoned by the so-called love of their life in marriage after falling ill. So, again, it makes better sense to argue for improving the healthcare system than suggest people are bound to find this level of marriage support. ![]() 1 Like |

Kobojunkie:I don't know what you perceived as "lies"... The fact that any of the spouses can fall sick? What plan are people making at the end of life? What plans could be more than being surrounded by your family and slipping away peacefully in their arms. Nothing beats that for me. You are right when you say marriage is not bound to give you these but that is when you're in a bad marriage. There are good marriages out there, not one without it's challenges but there are good marriages nonetheless. It's a beautiful thing. |

The worst things to ever happen to humanity in the last 50 years? Number 1, cell phones, number 2, the internet, and number 3, social media. If you're wondering why marriages are now a struggle, it's because everything is now out in the open. 3 Likes 1 Share |

With entitlement you see exhibited by women these towards, marriage may indeed be losing its essence. Nobody wants a burden but a partner who will complement and add value to them. 2 Likes |

Olorilolo:Look, the fact of life is this, people will almost always prefer to buy products that will be of more benefit to them than to others. Marriage needs to be of great benefit to both men and women before they choose to commit. ![]() In the days of our ancestors, the benefits were outlined in the traditional marriage laws of the time. Those laws no longer hold weight in the society we live in today. People are less inclined to follow along with the old ways just because it is that. They now understand that the choices they make directly impact their particular quality of life and so many are less likely to make sacrifices for the good of others. This means the marriage laws or rules needed, including the guaranteed benefits list, ought to be updated to keep people interested. ![]() 2. Marriage can only be beautiful if what it offers is better than the competition. ![]() 1 Like |

Re: Marriage Is Gradually Losing Its Relevance by Olorilolo(f): 9:21pm On Apr 15 |
Kobojunkie:Well, I'm not aware of this list you speak of. If there's a link or a book you can refer me to, I'll be glad to go take a look. Marriage I know isn't perfect, but it's mostly beautiful if the members complement each other and If the competition is "Money"... I don't see a competition to begin with. |
Re: Marriage Is Gradually Losing Its Relevance by integrity16(m): 9:22pm On Apr 15 |
donbenie: Have you been everywhere to conclude that it's loosing relevance?? Just go Ikoyi Registry and see for yourself that people are getting married everyday. We have not even taken statistics of arranged marriage, village marriages we don't see in churches as people no longer value church weddings anymore. |
