Nowadays many people will come out shouting that 'my marriage is this my
marriage is that' shortly after their marriage and you keep wondering
what happened. I think I have some of the reasons.
Handsomeness or Beauty
This
is the problem of some Nigeria girls but the guys are not also
exempted. They are like, 'if I want to get marry, I will a tall guy,
slim, fresh guy, dark, light, eloquent english, pink lips, big breast (
for guys),. Its good to have the image of want you for your life but I
must tell you, few years after wedding, all this beauty will fade away.
Its not as if the partner will loose the beauty or handsomeness but
then, you will focus your mind on important issues like feeding, taking
care of children and so on than facial look.
Faulty Courting
Courting
should be like a training ground or should I say where what you really
want for your family life is decided before marriage but unfortunately
Nigerians see it as merry time. Moving from Kfc to Shoprite. If you see
something wrong in your spouse to be, correct him or her then if he/she
refuses, cancel the relationship so as to avoid 'you know me like this
ooo before we get marry issue'
Two parallel lines
I
know of some families where the husband will be a gentle going man while
the wife is really tough then you keep wondering how it happened.
Issues like this also break marriages. If you are the kind of guy that
does not like trouble, please don't date a troublesome lady and thinking
that you can bear it now. What you can bear now my not be so years
later after marriage. Love may be blind but marriage is the tool that
will open it. Choose carefully my brothers and sisters.
Respect
Respect
is equivalent to love. You can't tell me you love a guy you want to get
married to and you can't give him the respect he deserves even if you
are age mates. This is where most Nigerians ladies are missing it. Some
ladies don't want to marry men older than them by few years because they
don't want to be controlled by any man. A lady who does not respect you
as her boyfriend will surely not respect your family and that's it.
Don't let your parent or church choose your future husband for you
I
have heard of some cases where some churches will tell you to marry
your church member. For what reason my fellow nairalanders? Don't ever
do that because when you finally face challenges in that marriage, all
they can do is advise both of you. Finally, don't let your parent
dictate the tribe to marry to you. You owe your life and not your
parent's life.
