Life and Marriage

 


Life is full of ups and downs same with marriages. Let me take you  down memory lane, ask yourself all through your life have things moved smoothly just the way you want it?, how many obstacles have you experience till date and how many more do you think you will experience in future. This is to say life itself is not easy.

Look, marriage is a formal union, social and legal contract between two individuals that unites lives legally, economically and emotionally. This automatically makes you both ‘ONE’. Will there be obstacles?  Capital YES, will it go smoothly? Capital NO.

For marriage to be enjoyed and last you need to carry each other along,

  •  Forgive when being wronged.
  •  Communicate often.
  •   Give room for change.
  • Make sure your marriage is your first priority.
  • Teach your partner how to love you if you’re not loved the way you want.
  • There shouldn’t be rules regarding how and when to have sex.
  • Always be transparent to your partner.

There are no rules regarding how to achieve a successful marriage but this can stand as a guideline. There are also so many guidelines but believe me the best guideline anyone can use is knowing what works for your marriage and partner and flow with it.

For the women, they told me how it was a normal routines for Ladies to make their list of what they want in a man and relationship/marriage from the age of 18 or even below and that's how they will keep on praying with it until they find the right person. For the men, they did not do much, first for them was looks follo...
  Have you heard some married couples complain after marriage, that their spouse hardly gift them or give them money? Have you also wondered why such thing is happening and why are wives complaining more? This happens to be what most women are currently experiencing in their marriages. A survey was carried out and some of this women complaining about this issue confirmed that it wasn’t like that during their days of dating/courting. Then what changed?   How can a man be comfortable giving outsiders, friends money while your wife has a pressing need for weeks yet to be sorted out. Some even go to the extent of not allowing them to work, cutting off every channel/means they can make money. Before you give your wife money, you ask her to explain, give you details on what they need the money for while others get more from you even without explaining what the money is meant for. What of gifts… in fact that’s gist for another day. Some don’t get to receive gifts even on special,...
