A view on Marriage Pt.2

 


I was having a discussion about marriage with a friend. He told me he is afraid of getting married because of the things that has been happening in our society. 

According to him he does not understand why someone will get married and later get divorced after so many years. He also doesn't understand why someone will pretend in a relationship and when they get married they show their real traits. Hmmm.... disheartening right?

Many ladies today are dating rich men no matter the age just because of money. Some say is love but who are you to argue. Hmmm..

Many men today are now dating sugar mummies just because of money. Hmm...

Marriage is not a money transaction. I remember when I was in the university, I would  hear some of my classmates who were females say I want a rich man who will cater for me so that I can just sit down at home and do nothing. When I heard that I just looked at them and went back to what I was doing. After all the school fees, the job experiences, skills you've acquired and you sit on that at home?aaaahhhhbaahh....where is yourself worth?

Getting married to these rich men is never rosy. They just show what people want to see on social media but in real life that's not what is going on. 

Some of these rich men are always busy and they never get time to be with their wives.

Others are just so controlling and manipulative. You are just a trophy to them nothing else.

Some are women beaters, abusers, womanizers etc. There's no peace in the home and you have no say because you have sold your value to money.

Money is good but be mindful. Hmmm....

The fact that everyone is getting married doesn't mean you should too. Your time will come. 

Seek the face of the Lord and he will give you yours.

Marriage is not an easy journey so before you go into it, work on yourself, prepare yourself physically, mentally, spiritually and psychologically. 

Getting married to someone is not all about beauty or how much money the person has but how best you can love, support, tolerate and grow with each other for that long.

Bare in mind "Marriage is not a bed of roses, it takes time to adjust and live in it.



Always remember "before you get married ask yourself am I ready for this, if not please do not embark on the journey".

RELATIONSHIPS (FUD 4 THOUGHT)

Everyone wants a fairy tale relationship  Where the story line goes like this On one bright Saturday afternoon at the mall I was just checking out some dresses when suddenly my purse fell I reached to pick it when he decided to do that for me I looked at him and it was love at first sight We started talking and it felt like we had known each other forever Shortly after we started dating This guy was just amazing He understood me and accepted my flaws  He was just my kind of man The love was deep and I loved every inch of it Years after, he popped the question   And I gladly accepted And we've lived happily ever after till now These kind of stories doesn't exist in reality Trust me....they don't In the beginning of every relationship is very lovely and sweet but getting to the middle of it, things become very sour And that is where questions start popping up in our  minds "Why is he/she doing this to me?, does he/she...

The form One XpeRienCe (Senior High) Part 2

  I was told the prep was going to be held at the dining hall since we haven't been given classes yet. I joined a batch of girls at the table and I opened a book to read. Some girls were just talking about what they did after they graduated from Junior high school and some were talking about trending things going on. I was just tired to even talk to anyone by the time I realized I was fast asleep. I don't know how fast the time went. After a while, I heard the siren and that immediately told me prep was over. I took my book and headed for the dormitory but first house prayers were made before we were allowed to enter into our dorms. I got in so exhausted. Immediately, I started packing my things because I didn't want to wait for tomorrow.  I didn't like where I was sleeping. My bed was right beside the door but hey there was nothing I could do since I came late.  Fortunately or unfortunately for me I ended up getting two school mothers; one was in form 3 and the other w...

The Form One XpeRienCe part 3

 We got down and stood infront of them. I was told to go to bed since I just came today. The seniors told them to showcase their talents right infront of them. One of them sang a Jordan Sparks song titled 'No Air', another sang a gospel song and one senior said who could sing Brick and lace song 'Love is wicked'. At the time, that song was reigning and was the ish. They were just standing there, no one came forward. I was just lying on my bed and I was singing that song. I didn't know they were listening because I thought I wasn't that loud so when I stopped I realized the place was super quiet. The next thing I heard was 'form one girl get down' . I got up from my bed and stood infront of them then I was asked to sing the song I was singing. I did when I was done, I was asked to go back to bed and that was it. The next day was Saturday and I didn't know what to expect. I got to the bathroom to take my bath and I realized that the bathroom was an ope...
