ALL FUN AND GAMES TILL YOUR BABY MAMA GETS OTHER KIDS WITH DIFFERENT DADS....THEN YOU'D LEARN SENSE N PEPPER.

In case you die, who'd look after your kids if you're not married to their mother. All your assets would vanish. As a wife has rights over a baby mama

Loving yourself is the beginning of true happiness but marriage, not to the right person under the right conditions will make u hate marriage and hate the day u ever thought to get married. Have u ever stopped to think of the reasons why most accomplished men are not married??
It's because marriage is a distraction and can turn one into an emotional wreck and a zombie. Guy, please listen to your father and save urself because i got married 5yrs ago but i really wish i was still single because men mostly give everything just to ensure the family's happiness at the expense of his happiness, sanity and dignity.BE WISE BRO AND YOU WILL LIVE LONG.

At your age, you should know what you want in life and not be intimidated by the opinions of your father. Yes, if you want a prudent wife start praying about it and God will answer you. Read Proverbs 19:14 and Proverbs 31:10-31. A prudent and a wife of noble character can only come from God. Do not lean on your own understanding when it comes to critical stages of life. Trust in God and he will help you make the right choices in life. Shalom.

In my few years of marriage, there is some truth in what your father is saying. But the fact is that, he got married and so you also have to. It is a requirement of God, our Creator. He instituted marriage and it has been so from ages. Marriage will regulate your life, without marriage, your life and your salvation may be jeopardised. My advice is that, get married traditionally. Forget court wedding. In my opinion, court wedding and ordinance marriages are actually our problems.

Kid bro., it is good to listen to your father but it is better to get married. If you get a virgin lady, get ordinance marriage and bind yourselves together for life and forget other women. But if she is not a virgin, do not go for ordinance marriage; go for traditional marriage. Whatever is the case, bro. get married and build your home and family. May God help you.

You will not understand till you enter. Good luck but don't ever come here to worry us of regrets and wishing of following your father advice should you had known better. Because of marriage, (something my own parent push me into) today, my father is sick and I have no money to go visit him talking of taking him to hospital. Now he appears cursing me without knowing the shit they pushed me into.

My dear ignore your dad and follow your heart and look for a virtoues woman and marry. Marriage is not slavery if you follow the set rules of God. One rule is, one man, one wife and you already have this you so clearly you are on the right path to have a sucessful and happy marriage.

it is only those who want to have a wife and many side chicks who see marriage as slavery and think they are not happy, single parenting is never good for any man because you can't take care of your kids alone so please don't try that. if your father's marriage is that bad you would have known it long time ago and it wouldn't be him to tell you and he would even have left/divorced your mother long time. Your father may be part a certain secret society whose rules frowns on marriage and that is why he sees mariage in that light. When God created Adam he said it is not good for man to live alone so let us create his help meet, that is how come God created Eve for Adam so my friend, it is not good for you to live alone; you need your own help meet, your fresh of fresh and bone of bone so look for yours.

Human as we are, we are not perfect and in marriage, only few women disturb their husbands most of them when they get their mr right, they do their best to make their marriages work so look for your mrs right and with God on your side, everything will be fine, most couples are livig happily with their families so your father may not be right all.

In your vicinity how many couples do you see them having problems in their marriages,i guees few? All those arm robbers you see accross the country are due to proper care they didn't receive at home which led them into these menace so i'm sure you don't want to breed these criminals so please look for your mrs right and get married and with God on your side everything will be fine.

Yes, not so i think but that is what it is, God created marriage with set rules so if you follow the set rules in your marriage, things go right in your marriage. Humans are not angels so you won't get a perfect person to marry you only get a decent person to marry and then you manage yourselfs based on the set rules of God and things go right with you in your marriage. It is as simple as this, no hard feelings.

Bio, in your narration, I read you talking about "decent woman" look! there are no decent women in Ghana. About 99% of them are only thinking about what to achieve in marriage. Marriage has always been a contract that benefits woman. Just take a look at our so called female celebrities, how many of them gets marriage after making money? example is Joyslyn Dumas. Women are so wise that they protect their monies from leaving by not bonding themselves with a man. Just think of it bro. It's only stupid men who throw their fortunes away in the form of marriage.

There is nothing like a wrong woman or a right man. Marriage is iron sharping iron. Freedom in most cases may lead to irresponsibility. If one woman is giving your dad issues, how much will two or more give. Mind you, some families don't tolerate impregnating their girls/sisters and not marrying them. Do you have sisters as siblings? Will your dad be OK if someone does same to his girl child?

You don't know the hell that married men go through. I've seen it with my own eyes & heard different stories from lots of men.
