Webster 23 Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.

We are not to fall to the sinful influence of men because Christ died so we can live for Him.

Sometimes this is what we have to tell people, God does not speak on every topic within scripture but He will give us insight on those not in scripture as He did for Paul.

To marry is a good thing but it is also good to stay single and not have the burden of marriage but be fully devoted to the Lord.

We are to live with everything we have to serve the Lord; Paul is no way promoting divorce or being a bad husband.

1 Corinthians 7:34 King James Version (KJV)
34 There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.
1 Corinthians 7:34 Wycliffe Bible (WYC)
34 And a woman unwedded and [a] maiden thinketh what things be of the Lord, that she be holy in body and spirit. But she that is wedded, thinketh what things be of the world, how she shall please the husband [how she shall please her husband].
Wycliffe Bible (WYC) 2001 by Terence P. Noble
These are my thoughts.
Unmarried women have more time to focus solely on the Lord but married women have a concern for taking care of their family and this could keep them from serving the Lord if they put their husband or family first.
