First of all, what do u mean by d word couples? I beleive dat there's no difference btw a married couple and a dating couple. Rather it shuld b maried and dating. i believe dat if both partners are meant 4 each other there shuld'nt b any difficulty or frowng and whateva if they are maried. D truth is dat many of us rush into mariage witout thinking or reasong abt d consequences ahead. |

D truth is dat many of us rush into mariage witout thinking or reasong abt d consequences ahead. There is a great difference between dating and being married. One has seal while the other doesn't. When challenges comes in marriage couple weather the storm together, but in dating its OYO. Marriage is sweeter because you learn a new aspect of life you never experienced, while dating ?? You can leave Bumi today and hookup with Sade tomorrow smiling and graining your teeth. In marriage your investment is safe because your hasband/wife eat your food and grow fat within your home while dating, she licks your ice cream and run to hookup with Emeka that will buy her shawama. The folks that are married that I know are happy and they say sometimes that its all not rosy but its the ultimate. That's Gods plan marriage and not dating. |

All i have to say is that you should get married to your friend and not a stranger,it works out.some do have a short period of courtship,you need enough time to get to know each other.Like i wrote earlier on,it's advisable to get married to someone whom you do play together,share thoughts together even before wooing each other..don't jump into marriage,chikena 1 Like |

It is interesting to see a thread which started six years ago still fanning such interest. This goes to show the importance of the issue in question to everyone. Alluding that dating couples are most times happier than married once is not completely true to me. After all as the saying goes,"as you make your bed so you will lie on it." You will all agree with me that there are clumsy dates as there are clumsy marriages. I'm a guy so I speak as a guy. You can only be happy in your marriage if you can gain the respect of your spouse. Love is good but as the marriage progresses, it is mutual respect that sustain it. So these tips for the guys, (1) Never allow yourself to be seen as an idler or lazy person and (2) Show respect to your spouse - stop flirting, looking at or complementing other ladies in the presence of your wives or even dates. Remember respect is reciprocal. 1 Like |

try69: MARRY A FRIEND IS THE SIMPLE ANSWER TO ALL THE MANY TALK..Same reason I encourage dating over a period{maybe a long period}.You could marry a friend and still have a clumsy marriage. There is a clear difference b/w dating and marriage. One has a responsibility level varying from zero to 80% while marriage on the other hand has a 100% responsibility level. If you are getting less in marriage then you can not be happy and smiling. |

WELL FROM MY POINT OF VIEW, I THINK THEY WERE NOT FUN LOVING AS A COUPLE, THEY WERE JUST FORMING BEFORE MARRIAGE...REALITY DAWNED ON THEM AFTER MARRIAGE AND NOW THEY ARE LIVING THEIR REAL SELVES |

Ovaiegbe:YOU CAN NEVER HAVE A CLUMSY MARRIAGE IF YOU MARRIED YOUR TRUE FRIEND...ITS SO IMPOSSIBLE...EXCEPT YOU ARE DEFINING A FRIEND AS AN AQUINTANCE OR SOMEONE THATS JUST YOUR FRIEND BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY ARE GETTING FROM YOU(not necesarilly money), IF THE FRIENDSHIP IS DELIBERATELY SYMBIOTIC, THEN ITS NOT FRIENDSHIP...TRUE FRIENDSHIP COMES WITH ACCEPTANCE, TOLERANCE, SELFLESSNESS... |

Nothing can be more true than the poster's assertion. I have observed this repeatedly among couples. Only few married couples appear happy to onlookers. On the otherhand, i must make sure that my marriage is envied even by ''Adam and Eve''. |

I think generally married men frown cos they have more responsibilities than b4. They now have little freedom. U can not come late from work nor sleep anywhere u like especially when u have children. I am still single but I realise that most of my married friends & brothers take more responsibilities than I do. Since I lost millions in my biz last 2 yrs, I av not been working. I live in my family house. I don't pay 4 anything. But none of my married friends can pack his wife & children 2 his family house n |

Wow! The responses are completely across the board and honestly, it's only normal for peoples' views to be varied. In my case, I got married in 1999. Before I met my late wife, I was just a disgrace to responsible manhood. Not that I slept with anything or everything in skirts, no, no. I'm very picky and I loved picking the very difficult ones. The challenge was always a rush for me. Thank God for His mercies. I got born again 3 years before I met my late wife and it helped a lot. For the 1st time in my life, I was dating someone and not having sex with her. It really helped our relationship grow and we could focus on the things that would make our marriage flourish in the future. Things like talking about everything and being honest to each other. The fact that we didn't have sex kind of built up her trust in me tremendously. She knew I wanted to have sex (sooo bad too), but she could see the determination that I would wait till marriage. Lo and behold, on our wedding night, I found out that she was a virgin and that scared me a bit. I had done everything under the sun in the past. Now, I was scared that the sex was going to be boring because she didn't have any experience. WRONG!!!. God has a way of rewarding you when you've been obedient. Within 6 months, I was the one trying to play catch-up. I remember her telling me one time that she would do anything to ensure that I was satisfied sexually (and she did). Now, even when sex was not on our minds, we could talk and engage ourselves in almost anything because we had 3 years of courtship (without sex) that prepared us for the times when sex was not on the menu. We were married 6 beautiful years and throughout that period, she would sit in the car the same way she used to sit when we were dating. Even on those times when I had a lot on my mind, she would through a piece of paper in my face while driving and tell me to stop frowning and I'd be smiling like a jackass. For those who think marriage is a curse or prison, I can tell you it's not. It's a wonderful thing when you marry your best friend and do it right. Maybe that's why 8 years after her passing, I'm still un-married. It took me 7 years to find the right one and I'm going to make sure we do it right. We've been dating almost a year now and it's wonderful. First time I haven't had to compare someone with my late wife and that's a blessing on it's own. So, what does this all mean? Marry your best friend that understands you in and out. The one that won't freak out when you do some stupid things every once in a while. The one that gives you the benefit of the doubt (even when you don't deserve it). I wish everyone the very best in their marital adventure. 2 Likes |
