Hello steemians,
It's a pleasure to be part of those participating in this contest today which we title "Difficult to Get Married! Why?"
There is going to be alot to learn from this contest and i look forward to reading from others too.
Marriage is a union between a man and a woman.
Gen 2:18 "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him.”
From the beginning of creation, God has made marriage to exist.
Adam and Eve were evidence of the marriage that God made.
I'm going to be writing about marriage in the subheading given.
I will be stating some points that cause a man or woman to be reluctant to marry.
Point 1: Finance: in the part of the world where we find ourselves (Nigeria) marriage is not a joke and not also for the weak.
To be able to marry you need to be financially buoyant.
Point 2: Several heart breaks
A lot of people have gone through a series of heartbreaks and they tend to be reluctant about marriage because they find it hard to trust any man or woman.
Imagine training a lady through school and in the end she doesn't find you good for marriage.
It's heartbreaking.
Point 3: some men or women feel reluctant about marriage because they are not emotionally ready for that responsibility.
As a man or woman, there are lots of things that come with getting married.
The things you don't do before you begin to do them.
Things begin to change and you find yourself living a different life.
Some people are not ready for that and they tend to be reluctant about marriage.
One of the importance of marriage is companionship.
Then for bearing fruits (children)
For oneness.
For parenting.
Another importance of marriage is purity.
We face temptation nearly every minute and from all directions. The bond of marriage gives us the support to defeat temptation by engaging in deep, satisfying love with our partners.
Singleness shouldn't be regarded as anything to be pitied.
There are numerous mental and physical benefits of being alone and on your own
Which I also consider healthy.
Regardless God is the biggest, he said it is not good for a man to stay alone.
So one of the risks of not getting married is disobedient to God.
Loneliness.
Any sexual activity is a sin to Gods and your body and to avoid that you should get married.

The 5 C's that everyone needs to decide if they want a marriage or not are closeness, communication, commitment, and constructive conflict resolution.
If any of this is missing, then staying single would be the option
