Of course marriage can be a bed of roses, not undermining the thorns. It takes the two parties involved to make it work.

Happy birthday in advance to your dad, and God bless your wonderful mom.

Amin
Happy birthday in advance to you dad and all the best.

Same with myLate Dad

The most important thing in relationships is to be with someone you both understand each other. More importantly someone who's main aim of being with you is not purely selfish. Someone you both appreciate each other.

You shouldn't compare marriage of their time to now.

It's the same world. You are defeating yourself already by believing it's a different world. You can only have what you believe in. Only when you believe something is possible that you will have the motivation to make the necessary sacrifices to make it possible.

Everything is possible, not because it's easy. Anything is only possible if you are actively working towards making it possible.

It's the same world. And there can still be the same marriage.

They have a happy life doesn't mean 99% of married people at that time are happily married.

Heaven ⭐ on earth 🌍 once you're with the right person, but if you're with the wrong fella ehn, Satan go dey pity you sef

Chances are one of your parents is the silent type and doesn't like any drama, so he or she'd rather stay silent whenever they have differences.

The amount of joy you have is proportional to the sacrifice you've made

lies made up social media and engagements

we know your kind

You must be a very bitter soul,who's alien to good news.


Its a compliment.
Omor you gatz check yourself well,the biles in you Na only God fit redeem you.

This picture was taken few years back and I still wonder why my parents still have same young look.

They've been married for 33 Years and still counting.

Growing up, I always ask myself if my parents never had quarrels.
It's now that I come to the understanding that, yes they might have quarrels but always find a way to settle it peacefully without making us(the kids) aware of it.

I learnt from my parents that marriage can be a bed of roses.
My Dad will be 60 Years Old on the 6th of July.
Happy Birthday Dad and More Years to you!🎂🍾🥂.

I tell people say good marriages no dey come social media. Na bad ones dey disturb us up and down

the likes of Olu Jacob and joke silva marriage should be considered as bed of roses...

If you it is possible, it is fine but don't use the word, "A bed of roses", for marriage. Marriage has never been a bed of roses even beginning from Adam and Eve. Secondly, it is never the same world. Marriages in the past were genuine and the partn

Your message says more about your own mindset than mine. Being quick to label someone “bitter” over their perspective suggests it might be worth reflecting on where that judgment comes from.

exactly, that is just my behavior,
My marriage would be 14years at 43 years of age.

Yes marriage could be true bed of roses if it's built on a sure foundation and that foundation is heavenly given love and how do we get this kind of love,it is through Lord JESUS and Him alone.

As many that are facing turbulent time in their marriage can turn to JESUS and He will turn their marriage to true bed of roses.

Marriage in the past is no different from marriage today. It's always been based on incentives.

No human is genuine. We all need each other and will only gravitate towards what will fulfill our needs.


I never said marriage is a bed of roses. The lady that uses that is only constructing a sentence, it doesn't mean her sentence is true. It's simply a word used for communication.

The lady never said their parents don't quarrel. They are just mature enough to resolve their issues without their children even knowing.


Life will always have its ups and downs. Choose a partner that you can weather the storm together regardless of the situation. If you don't find one, fight your battle alone or be ready to deal with avoidable frustrations.

Commendable. They've learnt what works and what doesn't work with patience and dedication.. A wise saying for married couples is that you jointly fight the challenges associated with marriage not fight one another because of the challenges of marriage.

As in ehn. I don't know who keeps convincing them they didn't check incentives in the past. Everybody get reason why e take marry another. It is not like Dangote came for their mothers and she turned him down.


Congrats to your parents and happy birthday to your dad, OP. They look good!!

Not necessarily so. I also have a peaceful marriage. I and my wife are both simple and easy going people. We both love and respect each other and we don't easily take things to extreme. For instance she frustrated and annoyed me this afternoon. The nice gesture I was trying to make turned into pain for me. I expressed my grievances and she apologized and I let it slide.

In our many years of marriage I think we've only quarrelled twice. The last time is about 5 years ago. We do have little misunderstandings here and there but it doesn't degenerate into quarrel.

That's how I also witnessed my parents live in peace. Never ever heard them quarrel.

Meaning you guys also prefer peace over drama, you're both peaceful.

We both peaceful. Who drama help? Life is easier without unnecessary drama.

Commendable. More of this please. There are many happy couples out there. More positive testimonies.

Enough of the negativity about marriage, it is grossly exaggerated.

This is how it should be. Learn about marriage from your parents, uncles, Aunt and close relative. Not online. Most people tell lies online just to get views, likes and share.

Again, many fake a perfect life online, but offline you go shock.

Lastly, best advise and training is the one you will give yourself in tune with your reality.

Say only for yourself concerning men . Meanwhile it goes both ways when it comes to misbehaving.

SlavaUkraini:
That your mom most be a wonderful woman...

When you see marriages that last long like this, the woman has a major hand in it..

The woman must learn to overlook the shortcomings of the man because we Men misbehave all the time....

They got married when women fall genuinely in love with men and not for their money.
Things have changed now.

DrTee1:
They didn't get married for money. They married on the basis of love, understanding, mutual communication and respect. They have apparently also been careful not to let religious people, friends and relatives to push them apart.

Once people take care of this, and don't marry because a man has money or a girl has big bombom, marriage is indeed lovely.

i like big bombom and I'm looking forward to wifing one

tonididdy:
Marriages of the last 5yrs are all sitting on a thing rope.

It's almost impossible to see a wife who will stick by the husband via thick and thin.

... These days you born better pass marriage

its hookup they are doing now not marriage. This generation is a shame

You're indeed lucky to have such a man. He places significant importance on your peace of mind. Do treat him well.

God bless both of you.

Thank you and also with you,at this stage of my life,peace of mind matters alot to us,

Marriage is not easy. Then again, weaklings can’t survive on earth being single.

This is how you know the age of the average child here. If the parent is sixty years old, the forum member is around twenty-five, thirty years old at most.

You're very right.

My Dad is the quiet one and doesn't like drama.

My mum laughs too much, you wouldn't even know when she's offended.
She laughs 16 hours in the day, except she's asleep or sick

Sincerely speaking, these sets of couples are gradually leaving the earth and what we have left are digital couples running their homes from online counseling....

Allowing others to decide for you both is one wrong move.
