Sorry o @op i know your question is for Men only but i hope you dont mind my doing small amebo on your thread since i be woman. I think most Men within that age bracket are unmarried because of fear and not having enough money to take care of responsibilities that comes with marriage. Some ladies are also scared of marriage too e.g moi. 4 Likes |

gentleheart1:oooh Men and women share responsibilities in most marriages. So they shouldn't be scared. My acquaintance told me that he had better savings when he got married. Not just because the wife was also working but because he had a different lifestyle that really changed his spendthrift attitude....thanks for sharing your idea..."guys only" |

MRBrownJ:I don't joke with opinions, I jot them down. This piece of paper will make a difference in my life. I can compare opinions and then try to see where I am missing it. Everyone those not have the luxury of thinking about some issues. Opinions from others can go a long way |

obiak4:wow, dude you need to think carefully about what you wish for. She takes care of you while dating doesn't mean it will be so while married. I won't approve of a man dating or getting married to an older lady. Unless she is the one marrying you. Well it's choice. But ensure you work well make a reasonable amount of money and then see if you still have the urge of an older lady. Most people (especially africans) marry older ladies because of financial benefits don't follow that path. |

Marxxx: ehen, what kind of books? Hope it's not the 'getting more out of the day' kind? Sis Dyt say I should tell you how to have fun. I garner you're an intense person; a strong MelChlor. Cheeeeiiiiii, where does one start with such a high handed personality. But despair not, there's hope. Do you have sociable friends? That's the 1st step. Hang out with good friends. Not the kind that will take you to bar ooo and finish your destiny. But the kind that have good clean fun, like mine . (shout out to my friends). Movies, beach, games, gists, travel and tours.... |

Re: Why Are You Not Married (28+ Men Only)? by MRBrownJ: 12:23pm On Mar 25, 2016 |
gentleheart1: what are the marriage responsibilities that you are talking about? - if a single man lives in a 1 bedroom apt, cant he get married and STILL live there with his spouse, until their finances are better and they can get a bigger place and possibly have kids? - if a man has just enough money for 3 square meals a day, and so does his future bride, cant they get married and continue living on 3 square meals, until their finances get better and they can start having kids that they can feed? we can clearly see that the MEANING of marriage is different for some... as if anyone needs money to get married, lol! money is needed in order to have a LIFE (home/food/clothing etc), and if anyone, whether man or woman, cant take care of their basic LIFE's needs, then they have no business seeking to get married, as their PRIORITY would be to get a LIFE. sadly, lazy women of today believe that this is men's duty, while any man should know that anyone without their "life" in order, shouldnt be valued as a possible partner, as they will be a LIABILITY to any union. so women (and men), get your LIVES in order before seeking for a mate. 3 Likes |

MRBrownJ: Dont get me wrong please, i am sorry i dont fall into the categories of ladies you are reffering. Aside my job i have a very little business which is not yielding money yet but i am very proud of it. And again what do you mean by a man who lives in a room getting married? Dont get it twisted yes the woman has to contribute to running of the home but a huge percentage of it has to come from the man. And yes a man living in a room shouldnt think of marriage until he is ready. |

MRBrownJ: I couldn't help but appreciate this post. Not only do men and women should get their lives in order but also be contented with that life. Many go into marriage expecting things to improve enormously without putting in work. If you desire a better life, you need to work for it and not demand it. Marriage is partnership. 8 Likes 1 Share |
Re: Why Are You Not Married (28+ Men Only)? by MRBrownJ: 1:15pm On Mar 25, 2016 |
gentleheart1: so what you are saying is that, if a man lives in a 1 room apt, where there is a bedroom with king size bed, sitting room, kitchen and bathroom, this man CANNOT get married because this house isnt big enough for 2 people?! |
Re: Why Are You Not Married (28+ Men Only)? by gentleheart1(f): 1:22pm On Mar 25, 2016 |
MRBrownJ: Oh well the decison should be between the man and the wife,its ok if they dont want their relatives and friends visiting. What if their parents wants to come spend some days and there is no extra room for them to stay? 2 Likes |
Re: Why Are You Not Married (28+ Men Only)? by MRBrownJ: 1:34pm On Mar 25, 2016 |
gentleheart1: marriage is about the union of a man and a woman, and their priorities should be about them, and only them. if they have enough to satisfy THEMSELVES then so be it. family and friends can sleep on the sofa bed in the sitting room (or better yet, stay at a hotel nearby), UNTIL this married couple get their finances together and get a bigger place... but if you believe that such flimsy excuse (such as space for friend/family visiting), is a reason why 2 loving and caring people SHOULDNT get married, then i am sorry to say that your idea/reason for marriage are clouded. but as you said, to each their own. 3 Likes |

For those that can afford to, for many its the fear of commitment And its more difficult for guys who have everything because they don't really know if the lady they are dating is with them for who they are or just for the money. |

obikirinoni: Pele dear. The world may not be friendly, but in an unfriendly world, know that God's love is sure and constant. True, you may not feel it or His presence, but His comfort is readily available to all who ask. Jesus never promised us a smooth ride on this side of life what He promised is the strength and grace to make it through the hurdles of life coming out strong. Extra Mega Hug. |
