I think everything boils down to understanding and love.. because everyone has a red flag. But some red flags are not to be touched example lying,cheating and unforgiving spirit.

Her family. I thought a rose had grown from sh*t. I was wrong. It was a sh*t garden that grew nothing else.
Boy! That escalated quickly cheesy.

But marriage is hardwork, Just thinking that that woman is who you are gonna spend your entire life with scare the shît out of me. And i see people jumping cluelessly into it without any proactive measures despite all red signs forming love. But then there is divorce, But divorce doesn't works well when you already have kids.

Great. thread AND very realistic.

Very potent set of words. Just sit. Or 'Just rest'. This advice you gave is wisdom (or revelation), so simple, yet powerful.

I had same revelation from God. Quite literally. There was a time (quite recently) I was praying to God for a husband. And later, the next day, very early in the morning as I was waking up, though still sub-conscious, I distinctly heard "I will bring him while (and when) you are resting.

When I fully woke up, I knew immediately, that was the audible voice of God (which I have come to hear more often. I asked God for some explanation. And, I got one. Resting, not literal for sleep. But, just means- sit still. Stop striving. Just be. And, what will be will be.

Today my new motto in life is this: whatever has my name on it (love, people, wealth...), will find me. Emphasis on "find me". Amen.

Nice word. So many people r getting married because of children, money n time (especially girls ask linda) not because of love. My believe has always been "let love find yhu". As a young man of 27 I don't have a girlfriend not because I can't but because I am sitting waiting for the my love to come. Yes I am sitting. Of course I do relate with girls, but I am not putting force. If I approach you to be a friend and u r acting reluctant n running away. I move on. I know one day there will be one that I will approach and I will not force myself for attention and I will get it. That girl will be my wife. My advice to young guys is don't waste your time toasting a lady upandan. Sit

Everybody gave red painted all over them here. You just gotta take that step and hope for the best.

my sister ,how can you hope for the best when you see the red flag, let me put it this way
you caught your fiance on fone making a call with an unknown person in a hidden place ,u came asked him whom he was with on the fone, he told you his sister , and u came to be a close pal to the sister , u later called his sister asking him after his brother when last ,she heard from him ,she said quite a while(2weeeks ago) , so you are to go ahead and marry the guy believing that he is to be a truthful person and hoping for the best of truths from him.

else the person is desperate to get married.

But you've publicised some in the past.

Truth is that, @ least one of these red flags show up in every relationship heading to the alter, some survived and are a perfect union while others collapsed. In the end, it is the lord that perfects everything that concerns us. Marriage is a very big risk, u either lose or gain, I gained, bless the lord oh my soul. ...

I don't want a sexually charged wife. All these women who are always hot and ready for action scare me marriage wise. When you have children, flabby body sets in, post baby big stomach that is almost permanent with many women, and overfamiliarity blurs the initial lust and attractiveness. Your desire to have sex with her as a man would drop. And yet she would still expect you to be pumping her regularly with the vigor you would if you meet a new sexy 22 year old girl. Simply not possible.

It doesn't work. I don't want that at all.


and you think her sexual desire wont reduce too? or your body won't age too.... I hope u don't cheat on your wife when she starts having babies cos that seems repulsive to u

cheesy cheesy

If you marry someone you truly love, you will be blind to some things. What of those that had sex all through the pregnancy amidst the throwing up and big belly cheesy wink

Besides, help her to lose the belly fat. Let her know your feelings towards it. Not all women even retain it.

it's almost impossible to forget completely,if someone defrauded you of millions u can forgive the person to forget what happened is almost impossible.. the issue is don't keep malice..

Sorry about your marriage, have you tried to go for marriage counseling.
I have followed you closely ans I have realized that despite being a feminist you are a very unbiased realistic woman with a big heart. You should be a coach people will learn alot from you.
