What Is The Brutal Truth About Life After Marriage? by akinsmail51: 11:32am On Apr 01
Meeting someone and marrying them is a lot like pursuing your dream job.

There is an opening. You get excited. You write up a flashy resume, and you apply. You follow up, pass a series of interviews, and you get the job!

Congratulations.

But, that’s not the end of it; it’s just the beginning. Because now you actually have a job to do. Daily. Repeatedly. Indefinitely.

At this new workplace, you will spend years, deciphering, manoeuvring, managing, riding a rollercoaster, compromising, learning, laughing, growing, dedicating, working overtime, placating, understanding, failing and succeeding.

The outcomes of this job will vary. You might get sacked or be made redundant. You might quit. You might last decades and retire with a fantastic pension. There are no guarantees.

The one thing everyone will tell you is that you’ll get out of it what you put into it. Mostly anyway.

That’s marriage, in a nutshell.

1. Sex plummets.

2. Familiarity abounds and contempt follows.

3. Rebellion to prove you are not the boss of her is not unheard of.

4. You could end up raising the bastards of her boss, coworker or ex.

5. More responsibility, FEWER appreciation.

6. Unlimited entitlement.

7. Her family problem is yours to bear and your family should DISAPPEAR.

8. You will NEVER win another argument.

9. You are ALWAYS wrong.

10. You slave and slave and slave for her pleasure.

Had a similar conversation with a married friend of mine two days ago.. I was complaining about how difficult it has become to find a good woman to marry.... He laughed and said to me --"life after marriage isn't easy at all bro....Most times you just have to accept each other's demon and live to manage dem together"

Omoh,na once I asked myself codedly--"Is marriage really meant for me"? grin

That's just the truth. You hardly see people who have being married displaying affections for each other publicly.but in the beginning it was all love and butterflies in the tummy.na so e be.what matters is that despite all the issue.you prefer to be with this one person.

Absolute nothing, judging by the constant thread on nairaland: carry her go oyibo land, she go chase you out of the house and even deport you, train her for school, she go use am as opportunity to find someone better, start business for her and e go be like say you just kickstart competition for house and helping your inlaws, na you go begin ask yourself where’s the multiplication but then give her just one bulsh!t and she’ll give you back in large quantity as a lucky man you are else it’ll be a lifetime retaliation

Life after marriage??
Does that mean at the end of marriage?
Life after wedding (ceremony) would have been the correct title!

The truth is, many men don't really know the implications of what they are getting into at the start.

When I see married men, I always pity them.

If you want a good marriage, put in the work before the marriage. Screen, screen and screen. If you eventually marry the right person for you, it will be much easier.

The major cause of marital problems is a mismatch of people. Desperation and marrying for the wrong reasons is why people eventually have problems in marriage.
