There are a whole list/lots of reasons why people marry but I want to mention just seven(7)
1. Some people get married because all their mates are already married.
This is not a good stance for you to get married, because your timing is different from the other persons time. There is time for every thing. If you get married because your "mates" are already married and you're not fully developed or ready for marriage then your might get divorce too because some of your mates are already divorcing. You should not rush into marriage for this reason.
2. Some people also get married because they feel they owe the other person, especially when the other person has assisted them financially. They will now feel the only way they can pay back is to get married to the person. This shouldn't be. Don't get married because feel indebted to this next person, most times the marriage becomes bearable instead of enjoyable.
3. Others also get married because of sex, sex? yes SEX. Some people just cant do without it. They want it at every time "T". I had about the story of a lady who got married, she actually loves the man according to her but unknown to her the man was only marrying her because of sex. This she got to know after she gave birth to her first child. She gave birth through CS and was advised by her doctor not to have sex until after three months so the cut could heal up well. But after two to three weeks her husband started asking her for sex. she had to remind him about the doctors advice. But she got a shocking statement from her husband which I wont want to pen down. But the marriage ended as a result of the fact that the husband could not wait for her to heal up properly and wanted sex at all cost.
4. Some get married because the other person is financially buoyant and they wont have to struggle financially. For some ladies they want a "made man" while the men want ladies that wont have to depend on them financially or they want to milk her off her money. Check your self before you say "I DO", why do you really want to marry this person.
5. Others is as a result of pressures from parent. Some parents can pressurize their wards/child to make the wrong choice. They want to get grand children like their mates already have and feel time is ticking and grey hair is growing. Please don't fall for this. Don't let your parent force you into taking decisions you don't want to take, cos "when the music starts you'll be left to dance alone", I hope you understand what I mean.
6. Some people also get married because they're pregnant or because they have impregnated someone. It is not a MUST to marry someone you are pregnant for or someone you impregnated. Check your self before you say "I DO", why do you really want to marry this person.
7. Others is as a result of age. "At a time no time". They are not getting younger so anybody that comes their way without fully knowing anything about the other person they just rush into it only to rush out of it later. Check your self before you say "I DO", why do you really want to marry this person.
Please add your own reason(s).
