Protect your spouse from every external party. Defend him or her and make it clear that you people are one.
The way you treat/carry your spouse is the way others will treat him/her. Dont disrespect them and expect others to respect.
I learnt that from my sister's husband. He puts her up there and she does same. No one not even his family can talk to her anyhow.

Krystaal:
I'll just ask him/her an easy question..."how bad do you want that pussy/dick ??"...

You are obviously not married

Marriage is not easy at all. If you know what married couples are passing through just to keep the marriage, u will better stay on your own. If I'm to advise my child , I will tell him or her never to get married to anybody. You can have all you want without getting married. Freedom is priceless. Money can't buy it.

Maybe you didn't marry someone you are compatible with

VickyRotex:


I think its the other way round.
I'm not married, but I learnt that if you can survive the first 10 years, you can survive the next 25 years and even more.

First 3 years is not easy, yes cos you will miss the clubbing and party.
After 10 years the love will wash away and holding the marriage will become a task.
Marriage is after from 5 years on

marry a man/woman who completes u dnt marry Eze bkuz he iz gud in bed nor kunle bkuz he iz rich or osaro bkuz he iz nice n goodlooking or Shola bkuz he has of al diz qualities But marry a man whose focus iz onli on God n notices u bt bkuz God said LOOK THATZ UR BETA HALF

Ayanfeoluwaoba:
There are 4 (Four) people involved in Marriage

1. The Man you married
2. The Man you thought you married
3. The Woman you married
4. The Woman you thought you married.

Your marriage will be an Haven only if you accept each others imperfections.

Awwwwwnnnn!!!!
It's well!

One of the reasons why I come here is because I desire to learn from people who are already in the 'business' of marriage. This is borne out of a dream to have an exceptional home; a marriage where I will smile all day because I am married; a marriage where the blessings of marriage surround me. I know I am not alone in this as there are a lot of young men like me who have such desires in their heart.

So if you are married and your opinion is being sought, it is because we don't wanna make mistakes. We want to know what works and what doesn't work.

Supposing you have a son or daughter who desires to get married or is about to get married and you want that child's marriage to succeed, what will be your greatest advise to that child of yours?

Please tell stories where applicable.

Thanks!

I m not married though, but if I m to give advice concerning marriage it would be:
1. Look beyond beauty/handsomeness; because the desired character do not always come with the desired vessel.
2. Be patient, don't always be too quick to react.
3. Go into marriage with the mindset and determination to make things work with your spouse.
4. Desist from the habit of inviting a third party (even close relatives) into issues in your marriage.

Don't marry because you are up to the age of marriage.

Don't marry because you think you fell in love.

Don't marry because he/she was recommended for you by a trusted person

Don't marry because you have the cash

Don't marry with high expectations

Don't marry because you need to raise children

MARRY A PERSON YOU HAVE DEVELOPED GREAT FRIENDSHIP WITH. When everything else, including love, fails, friendship will endure.

I can't type all that is in my mind, but let me quickly add that many marriages have problems because people expect too much from their spouses. Instead of magnifying your partner's error, try to discover the effort he/she put in.

Honesty and Sincerity are the most vital attributes you should look out for. know that you all are imperfect and put yourself in his or her situation.

If possible expect nothing. lol

Marry someone who knows how to manage finance

TINALETC3:
Exactly Wat my mum told me
Neva jump to a man bc of money, attitude first.
Kama is unavoidable, treat ur brothers wives d same way u wnt 2 b treated in ur husband home. Neva speak wen ur husband is angry and shouting at u,4 dat wl make hm raise his hand on u, neva argue with hm. Instead, talk 2 hm wen his anger cools
I stop here abeg, it's many , God bless my mum 4 me, she did well
Anytime I hv problem wt my brothers, she keeps reminding me dat am a woman, if I keep reacting violently 2 dem, I wl bhave d same way in my husband's home.

You are well trained .God bless your mom both in age and finance.

It is not about compatibility. My wife loves me and I love my wife certainly no doubts about that. But if u add, multiply, subtract and divide everything, u will find out that marriage is burdensome. Check all the marriages of the world, no one is perfect. People are getting married because d society wants them to get married. 99% of married people are not happy but they cover up. The truth is that freedom is priceless. It is not about love, money and compatibility . You can still achieve everything without getting married. I'm married but when I see people doing wedding, I will just say in my mind that these couples don't know what they are getting themselves into.

Quite simple. You think that's all that is necessary

Oga abeg oo. Me sef don dey dream wedding.

I am just thinking maybe you need to spice up your marriage. I might be wrong tho

my Father told me "Dont Marry a broke woman, ensure she has a job". Very Good advice i say

ashjay001:
Dont get married. Boy or girl, u can live in, have kids but, dont tie any knot joor!

Pull my other leg

My advice is this, to the Man Love your wife the way Jesus love his disciples. To the woman Respect your husband and be in Subjection to him the way Jesus is to his heavenly Father. Both principle have been helping my marriage

When you marry I go c how much spice u go add to your marriage. It's not about spices my brother. When u enter, you go know far. It is not a bed of roses with all d spices, love, money and compatibility. I have said my own, I will advise my son not to get married. That marriage institution is over hyped. Your parents will never tell you the whole truth about marriage cos they want you to fall into the same trap they fell in. i'm married but I will advise my friends to stay clear from marriage. Don't short change your life by living in bondage

As life is not a bed of roses,so is marriage but with patience,perseverance, prayers u will sure ve a headway.

Benita27:
Marriage is an institution. Once you're wedded you're given marriage certificate but there's no graduation. Your syllabus is your spouse, so do well to study him/her very well. Marry your best friend and not out of pity.


This is my advice, and hope to learn from others.

what of those that don't have best friends like ne

Love is not enough to sustain a marriage, it takes a lot of other things like kindness, patience, money,health, patience,determination, fidelity and most importantly God.

prof1990:
My only advice is for them to have kids and make sure the kids play football or basketball.

pls how much is that in naira....my calculator stopped working when i tried calculating

Well, as for me, I am still single and waiting upon the Lord to grant me my heart desire and way beyond that.
If I have a son/daughter, my words would be: marriage as you see is an eternal convenant between you and the person involved. As you see marriage, so as God takes it to the heart. Never you marry an unbeliever cos if you do, the hope to change such person in the process is unpredictible if truly you are a christian/muslim, and you value your spirituality.
Secondly, If in case you have a child out of wedlock and you meet someone you love, be convinced that this person is ready and willing to accept you, your flaws, ready to make sacrifices for you, and ready to show you off to his/her family and be totally accepted by the two families. Single mothers and fathers find it difficult to settle down in this present world. So be wise. Reference a marriage/relationship counselor for your needs, it assists alot.
Lastly, marry for love not infatuation. Courtships that begin with true friendship last longer than meeting around the edge of a corner. Marry someone you feel so comfortable with revealing your secrets of the past and present. Marry someone you call "my soul mate, my companion". Marry someone who completely accept the 'real you'. And again, once a woman/man violates you emotionally, mentally and sexually, physically, please refrain yourself from such individual to avoid untimely death. I hope this piece helps.
