1. You aren’t married because it’s not your time yet

It’s worth knowing that there’s a time for everything under heaven. A time to be born and a time to die; a time to sow and a time to harvest; a time to love and a time to hate (Ecclesiastes chapter 3). This truth runs in all aspects of life, in the very core of nature. It’s a principle that has nothing to do with color, tongue, gender, or age.

In Ecclesiastes 3:8, it says there’s a time to love. In other words, there’s a time to develop, and nurture relationships. Everything has its time and we must be sensitive to know when it is the right time for something in order to migrate properly into that season. You may be single just because your time hasn’t come yet. Don’t be pushed around or pressured to marry out of season. It might fail you and be painful. Just wait for the right time. For at the right time, says the Bible, God makes everything beautiful (3:11). He makes your marriage a happy one with the right person when you wait for the right time.

2. You aren’t married because it’s not for everyone

Marriage is not for everybody, and also it’s a matter of individual choice. Some people live truly fulfilled lives without marital experience and free from all its woes and responsibilities that come with it. However, it’s not the responsibility or woes that scare them away but a matter of choice. Perhaps they are not destined to get married, like some priests, nuns, and many others. Or they just wanna avoid all the woes of sharing their lives with someone else.

Whatever you choose, make sure that you are happy with your choice. If you don’t like marriage, then you shouldn’t get married. But don’t live the life of the married while you aren’t married. If you are unhappy with marriage, you shouldn’t live like one in private or public.

3. You aren’t married because of your bad attitude

Your attitude can be the ‘WHY’ you are the way you are. Almost everyone hates a bad attitude of the mind which is reflected in the way one behaves towards life and other people as well. Whether you are a man or woman, your behavior can ruin your chances of getting married. Women hate badly behaved men and men also do not like badly behaved women to have a relationship with. Think of your character, your behavior, if it’s respectful of others or not. Are people around you feeling a bad or negative vibe coming from you or not? The Good thing about bad behavior is that it can be remedied by changing the way we behave towards others. It’s as simple as that.

This is what some young single men do nowadays. The men who abuse and insult their ladies aren’t exempt from the category that is clueless of the value of women. Just imagine having such men as husbands. It would be catastrophic.

b) what about the female gender, do they know the value of marriage, of husbands? Yes, I am talking about you ladies in need for husbands, do you know how to treat a husband? Do you know what marriage is all about? No, It’s not about sex. Sex or its ability doesn’t qualify you for marry. It goes deeper than that. It might just be that your inability to understand marriage is what keeps you still single.

Ask yourself if you understand the union called marriage that you desire. Can you sustain a relationship with the opposite sex in marriage free from violence and with mutual respect ? Can you undignify yourself to dignify the love of your life? They call it a sacrifice, and can you? Can you foot the bills to sustain the union even if your partner isn’t working yet ? Are you ready to love your spouse as you love yourself? Are you willing to handle your liberty without infringing upon the liberty of others?
