God blessed me with a very good and supportive wife. Not all marriages are troubled

Even so be prepared for the worst and you may be lucky to get your expected best.

Guess it was modified. He was praying for a trouble-free wife/marriage earlier.

I got married in 2019 and I'm happy with my wife and the two lovely daughters God gave us.

I never knew marriage is not about having sex.

To the married men and women in the house , let's give them some, not on papers experience which you will never be told before marriage...


Some of these I learnt through a friend....


A) If you (husband) have 5k and the woman has 3k , sum it together in marriage arithmetic , total cash available in that house is 5k, thanks.

B) As a man be prepared to enter kitchen, expecially those early morning cooking, or else be ready to visit mama put..

Keep it rolling......

Point A is an immature perspective on marriage, marriage should be run as the institution it is. A strong instruction has a budget, strong institutions don't spend haphazardly or indiscriminately, there is always a plan. The cash available is the cash budgeted, it's ok for individual spouses to have personal allowance.

In marriage, you will struggle to you d*e.
You will most likely not get what you put in unless you are the one not putting in any efforts.

Very draining.

I am trying to get out of one, when I do, u will never get married. Never.

The bottom line is all 9ja girls are ashawo both the ones forming GF or church girl. They are all the same.

The fact that you have never caught your babe doing ashawo, doesn't mean she is not an ashawo

Word on the street is that intimacy will tiya you and when responsibilities start hitting you left, right, front and back the only time you will remember you have D is when you want to pee and that this is when friendship with your spouse will survive the marriage and this is also when you realise that beauty is not everything.


Another word on the street is that 90% of marital problem are problems finance/money can solve and the problem(s) money can't solve more money will solve it. In marital calculation the remaining 10% preponderate the 90% but the 90% are the frequent cause of marital problems.

Another word on the street is that the first 5 to 6 years expecially first 2 years are the years in marriage that have the greatest trial/confrontation/issue it is then that you will likely realise that what you ordered was nor what was delivered to you. You start to see the other spouse true character and behaviour (I don't want to sound gender specific) but you will wonder if you both actually did courtship for 10 years and why you didn't see their true character.
Rich marriage does not have most of these issues. Its broke marriages that suffer like this

Omo

This why I will never fight my woman no matter what she does

All these bad bad things people say about women. I've not experienced it atall

My gf is just too good to be true

I know how much she makes at work. She tells me every amount that enters her account

She buys alot of things in the house

Even when rent expires she offers to split the bill because she almost spends most of her time in my place because its close to her work

I know her phone passwords
She picks calls of guys that try to toast her in my presence and put it on speaker

I'll just be smiling at the guy dropping lines

She washes my clothes sometimes but I must stay with her and rinse it and dry it

She's a good cook

She's very respectful to elders

She is beautiful and hardworking
And always at home by 7pm
No night life

4yrs relationship
We met In my final Yr in OAU

Omo nothing this girl can ever do that can annoy me o

I plan to propose to her next Yr sha

Because we have been living together now for the past 1yr almost like married couple but I never do the right thing

Make I quick put ring for her hand

She's clocking 25 early next year

The author of marriage is God. Know what His manual about marriage says and stop learning the rudiments of marriages in marriage. That is what crashed so many marriages.

You be entitled to your opinion and suggestions...

It is no applicable to all marriage. It is depends on how you nurture your relationship before the marriage.

I built my relationship on managing eachother first, understanding one another, communications became paramount and I give her attentions...

2. That instance of 5k and 3k becomes 13k as for me. I wondered about the used of 5k and 3k which yields results of 13k. Guess what, I do appreciate the mental and physical effort used by her...
My wife knows how to make do with stuffs and very meticulous... She distastes wastage. I will marry her again in my next life.

3. That is the secret... The IDAN

1... A woman's money is her money, but a man's money is the money for the house/family

2... A woman will almost always chose her siblings and her children over you.

3... A woman will always be comfortable with her family members staying around, but will never be all happy if it's the other way round.

4... Never tell your wife about all the money you have, because her demand will increase.

5... As a man, be ready to spend and double your hustle because you must provide ooo, whether nah Tinubu or Obi wey be president.

6... Be ready to always tolerate and forgive, never allow any issue with your spouse to cross 24hrs, irrespective of who was wrong, peace is paramount.

7... You will be considered lucky if the both of you are ready to learn, relearn and take corrections , because in marriage, you will keep seeing new things from both parties.

I think if people should just be behaving the way they were during Dating/courtship, there won't be much issues.


NB: There can be 1% exception.

You seem like a true married man. Trying to engage someone in the next few months. Make wuna pray for us

U will realize that you've been scammed, cos believe it or not, your partner won't show you all her/his bad habits during courtship.... Wait until after wedding

Is this what they mean by:

Love is blind but marriage opens your eyes?

Why do we men allow women to lead us into this trap

Looking back at how my dad and mom of blessed memory fared in marriage,one major lesson I learned was that:"He who finds a good wife has got a direct blessing from heaven"

Marriage of those days!!!
