Monotony and boredom lol
Its not totally unnecessary tho
If y'all know what you really want
It teaches you a lot.. It might be unnecessary but it is imperative
Just my opinion anyway— Paul | Unpaulished Media (@MisterAlasiri) June 9, 2019
My exact thought too. I feel you shouldn't commit until you're ready for marriage. Monotony and boredom.

She doesn't understand that it's a learning process as well…all some ladies think of is heartbreaks and guys wants sex

Well it's not totally unnecessary. Dating teaches you alot about life, human behaviour, interaction etc. With enough experience from dating you could then choose a suitable partner

You absolutely right, dating is unnecessary if marriage is not in sight. Platonic/friendship relationship can teach you all you need to know about someone

Many people do not know that the essence of a relationship is MARRIAGE!

😂 it's the title of a book. Read it back then when I was under pressure to get into it. Made me realize it isn't worth it after all.
