Thanks bro.

My mother even worse pass my wife sef.
You see I have nowhere to go.
Mama sits on the property in 9ja.
Wife claiming the one in EU.

Reason for my everyday cry.No where to go.
How can I trust any woman again when the closest ones have shown me more pepper and salt on my injuries.

Not just you alone. I think majority of the female gender are manipulative, selfish and very sentimental.

As my personality isn't for everyone, so is my response. Go fvck yourself Mr. maturity.

NB: Lemme reply you because you're the OP. I wouldn't wanna get married because asides giving birth and cooking, the lady would virtually have nothing more to offer. So why the stress? Any fertile female can give birth, even mad women give birth grin.
I might even end up adopting Children and continue with my life.

For those tearing me apart, this is it:
Don't get me wrong. I know my view sounds somehow. But if you look carefully, that's what most women do these days. Even those that work don't wanna share responsibilities with their husbands... Is that not the same as just cooking and giving birth?
As for the women in my family, that's a topic for another day, I wasn't raised by one. Not a broken home, but passed away when I was very young. Pops didn't remarry, and I never really felt her absence, maybe because I don't know what it feels like to have one. There's no house chore too big for me to handle, I grew up doing all those, perfectly. So I ask myself, what do I need a woman for? Asides giving birth and cooking, most of them have nothing more to offer. That's the truth. Some are even dirty and very disorganized, I can't stand a dirty environment. Never! But if you're gonna be offering something else asides what I listed above, then let me see. But how many of them have tangible things to offer?
And as for companionship, fvck it! I'm a hardcore introvert.

Same here. But what else should she offer?

Nigerians want to get married because, in Nigeria, MARRIAGE is synonymous with HAPPINESS... and sadly, many will gladly marry any donkey out there, in order to join the "happily married" bandwagon (while being truly miserable in their heart)

also most have been brainwashed into believing that their life purpose is to find a mate, marry that person and becoming "one". thats what your parents tells you you must do, thats what you religious leader tells you you must do, thats what friends and family tell you you must do....so at the end, many do believe (wrongly) that if you DONT get married, you would have failed in life

Have you seen an America, France, British, Russia president without a wife or husband.

Nigerians and foolishness.

It's only irresponsible people that claim marriage is evil.

Adultery in Nigeria is what is killing marriages. Love of money.

People often make jokes about marriage sending relationships down the drain. People supposedly let themselves go and the initial love and happiness fades away. Whilst this is true in some cases, these sorts of jokes give marriage a bad name because there are so many wonderful things that come with being joined in matrimony...

Whilst sheer thoughts like having little angels run around my house shouting: 'Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!' excites me a lot, I wouldn't be a proud father of such children if I don't marry their mother.

Why? Simple. I don't wanna breed bastards. embarassed

Don't waste your data on fools. Nigeria is now a land of the prostitutes because of worldly things.

I see your pain but it is understandable. I am one of you I hate my freedom being taken away. Where a woman, coming into my life, will make me not want to move (travel the way I want).

Now coming to what they can offer, I denounced my friendship with a girl because she asked me, "won't you manage a girl if all she can offer is sex". I was mad. Because I can't stand the scene of seeing my kids suffer because of a lazy woman.

But still, I have seen woman with integrity. The once that have much to offer. Yes, I live in the semi-developed area of the country and it gave me much insight about women and their live. The only thing it requires to get one that meets your standard is just stepping out of your comfort zone.

Mind you I don't chase after women. You know that small life of an introvert, always on my own. But you have to signal to them with your body and eyes, then let them do the dating. And you, you do the shakara.

Bro my bottom line is, step out of your comfort zone, with just words a woman can tell you who she is. Remember this, keep the slay mamas away. They are the once that will alway give you the impression that all a woman can offer is sex. Instead try search for those once that you don't see regularly, those once with self respect. They are a lot of them, only that mechanics has caused us not to know who the mad once are.

Use you introverted character to your advantage. Getting a woman is not hard.

How would you know?
It took decades to see my own mother true colour.
In fact my wife is stupid but with my evaluation still much better than my mother.
But also brainwashed by her own mother.
Man has no say.

maybe that is their own way of loving you, check very well you will find more of the good attributes in these women in your life.
you will discover that they are not entirely bad afterall.
as a matter of fact, those who love are those who talks tough at you. who look you straight in eyes with piousness and want you to get the best.

It all boils down to our societal values, norms and what people would think and say about you if you aren't married, especially if you're a girl, why pop out a baby or two or three for a man without him putting the ring on it and not expecting people to think you're a shameless baby factory who is just cohabiting with an unserious man who loves getting you pregnant?

So beneath all this "I don't care what people think about me" mantra everyone chants, is an insecure and timid person wishing he or she is really about that, lastly marriage gives you a kind of leverage, because in the face of society, you're legal and as a legal partner you kinda have a say when someone is in your turf, and you sometimes get compensation when it hit the rocks, example jeff bezos and his ex wife.
your last line made me laugh. Why use Jeff to analyze your post? Are we in America or Nigeria? Funny people everywhere.

A woman should be helpful financially to her man apart from that she should help in any way she can. Also remember this, build your career it will force people to respect you.

Don't worry. By the time you meet the woman that will arrest your heart, you will change this ringing tone of yours.
OK, bye.


Sis, modern times has exposed all feminine antics.

If a woman is acting all caring and loving these days to me, I already agree it’s probably cause she likes me and why wouldn’t she like me? When she has a lot to benefit from a single hardworking lad.

If a man with this kind of knowledge decides he is not going to get married, how else can you convince him otherwise?

I have impacted to a few with being single. I know if I was with “some women”, her overly selfish nature would have hampered that.


Maybe unwanted pregnancies and emotional fanfare would be the final arrest?

Most people are saying they don't wanna get married. That's just a total self denial of primitive human existence. God himself in his higher wisdom made woman to be a helpmate to the man and for companionship with the understanding of the critical needs and basic desire of the man he created. Yet some on nairaland derives pleasure trying to subvert natural Principe. Anywhere na forming sha. If you have met the wrong person or encountered difficulties in your life don't let is twist your understanding of marriage and why you should get married. As for me i believe in love....( calm down am not naive). I want to love and be loved. Companionship. And to groom healthy children.

You are naive. Not everyone believes in this your god.

Well...marriage isn't love but love is marriage. Getting married is a proof of my commitment, endless love, respect and responsibility towards my husband. I also want our children to have a sense of entitlement towards him. To know they can call him, "Father" at any time of the day, with pride, love and possession.

Last last everyone ranting here will get married. Some of them daydream about their forever with their Prince charming or snow white. They will scatter social media with their pictures when they eventually get married.

There is fulfillment, satisfaction and companionship in marriage. You can't have a good marriage and remain the same. How about kids? I want to have children.Society has made it acceptable to breed bastards, no functional Daddy-mummy-Children family. Sex is free commodity today. .But it can never be compared to a happy family.

Lol...I am in Nigeria. It was what we both wanted. We told the pastors in our church about our idea because we wanted the service at the reception venue.

We have a lot of friends from our different groups so we took it to a not too close location because we planned for 100 family and close friends.

The service was about 45mins in the same venue and the reception followed after. It was suit and bow tie for men and dinner dresses for ladies. It was fun. No bridal train, just maid of honour. No Aso ebi, no second dress wahala, no extra stress.

I didn't even decorate the car cos I stayed in the hotel in the venue of the wedding. it was exactly as I wanted cos I don't like stress.

You can pull it off. It just depends on both of you. If you are from the tribe that likes partying and plenty serenre... sorry cheesy
