Abi you no want marry ? in African society there are certain expectations, to be a man you must show yourself as a man. Being a man has nothing to do with biological age but your actions. |

StarboyMichael:thank you!! Thank you very much. Nothing to add. Mind you, those choking others with their marital status re more often than none miserable in their marriage.of course they can't leave because of "society" (whatever that means). Domestic violence is on the all time rise, spousal killing is now a normal thing yet they will rather die with the tag "married" than living to fulfill purpose! Marriage is good, marriage is sweet. It is also worth waiting for. If done wrongly, that person of all men is the most miserable. Some can't afford that. 17 Likes 5 Shares |

Me thinks you protest too much. Life is all about perspective. Me thinks you did not get the pastor's message bro. An analogy for you..... "Two prisoners looked out of the prison bars. One saw mud, the other saw stars." Let's always do our best to pick out the positives in any situation. Let me help the Pastor. You see my brother, IRON SHARPENETH IRON. Move with like-minded people.

Ours isn't a normal society. Nigerians and their needless busybody in other people's matters is so annoying. Whether or not we want to admit it, getting married isn't the most important thing in life. Nigeria is a weird society and if you insist on being great, then you risk being misunderstood. I'm so busy with my life that I hardly have enough time to bother myself with when an adult will get married. It's even worse with the single ladies. Nigerian society has already stereotyped them as irresponsible. Married people are some of the most miserable folks on the earth. Just get on with your life. Let the lousy folks do their talking. 21 Likes 2 Shares |

I will attend 2 weddings later this month and I have prepared my mind for the inevitable questions. No be today. Imagine! Some people will tell me: "oga, get serious and settle down. You are already looking like a daddy" I think they are only looking at my 1- super pack tummy. Nigerians sha. Never bothered me much. Well, I guess it's easier for guys to ignore such comments than you ladies. 12 Likes 1 Share |

I've heard stories of how some parents make their unmarried daughters go through shits. They stigmatise them, ask them not to buy things in the house especially when she stays with them. Although, I've never been asked about marriage or my spouse at home. I still feel the need of fulfilling or doing what is right. Deep down, I have this fear for marriage. Another part of me wants it so bad. I think our society has placed too much importance on marriage. They have made us believe that you have spiritual husband or wife if u cant get married as early as possible. 2 Likes |

The stigmatisation is real at work, married women close early and they don't work on saturday,while the single got no family to care for so you stay back,i don't contest it I just smile,the recent ones was when we needed an apartment 3 landlady denied us claiming they don't want single,the society is one anchor of divorce,my folks don't taunt me with it thou,they know with time I will do the needfull. 2 Likes |

Unionised: Having a ring on your finger has absolutely nothing to do with your quality as a human being. There are married people that sleep around, that are violent and drunk. That whole analogy is moot, n the preacher is very uninformed he is just creating unnecessary division 6 Likes 1 Share |
