“Avoid Female Friends In Marriage” — Lady Recounts Painful Experience by EmmyMaestro(op): 12:47pm On Aug 07
“Avoid female friends in marriage” — Lady recounts painful experience

A lady has gone viral after sharing what she described as a painful lesson she learnt about friendship and marriage, claiming some of her female friends secretly hoped her relationship would fail.

Her account, shared on social media, has attracted widespread attention, with many users weighing in on the influence friends can have on marital decisions during difficult moments.

According to the woman, the incident began after she had a minor disagreement with her husband and temporarily left their home to stay with friends, expecting comfort and support.

Lady reveals what happened behind her back

The lady said, “I had a small misunderstanding with my husband and left home for a few days to stay with my friends.”

She added, “They told me not to go back and behind my back, they made a bet that I wouldn’t last two years in my marriage.”

Reflecting on the experience, she concluded, “Avoid female friends in marriage.”

Story sparks debate over friendships and marriage

Her remarks have generated mixed reactions across social media. While some users agreed that couples should be careful about whose advice they seek during marital disagreements, others argued that the issue is not gender but choosing trustworthy friends who genuinely want the relationship to succeed.

The story has continued to fuel conversations online about healthy boundaries in marriage, the role of friendships during conflicts and the importance of resolving disagreements directly with one’s spouse rather than relying solely on outside opinions.

A married woman should not keep single female friends. They will poison your mind amd make you leave your marriage. A lot of them are not happy seeing you married.

Imagine being married and having a single female friend like kobo.junkie, that means your marriage don finish be that. Be warned.
Re: “Avoid Female Friends In Marriage” — Lady Recounts Painful Experience by givedemwotowoto:
As a married woman (or prospecting to be), NEVER seek relationship advice from:

1. Single or divorced women (they will lead you back to singlehood).
2. Feminists (they will teach you selfishness and low quality effort in marriage, which leads you back to singlehood).
3. Male friends (They know the truth, but they will lie to your face because they don't want you to hate them, they don't want to tell you the uncomfortable truth, they know you're not ready for the truth).

Avoid seeking advice from fellow woman (married or single). Sometimes women hide what is going on in their marriages for posturing sake so they will advise you wrongly. Sometimes your complaints bother them so they advise you to take the easy way out just to save their ears and mental health from you. Sometimes they're plain malicious and want to see you fail.

Seek relationship advice only from your married parents, parent-in-laws, or MARRIED professional counselors

The greatest enemies of that gender na still themselves
Re: “Avoid Female Friends In Marriage” — Lady Recounts Painful Experience by Nobody:
The problem with Nigerians is that they misuse the term FRIEND.

Majority of the people they called friends are just acquaintances.

Well, I learnt a new phrase: "SIDE PANADOL" grin grin grin grin grin grin


Edit:
I discovered another new thing grin

She said Panado not Panadol
"Panadol is owned by Haleon (a global consumer healthcare company spun off from GlaxoSmithKline).
Panado is owned by Adcock Ingram (a major South African pharmaceutical company).
The names sound almost identical because both brands base their names on the generic drug group "paracetamol.""

Anyone who is incapable of forming their own opinions and deciding on next steps on their own is a child, and should not be allowed into the marital union in the first place.

This goes both ways even with men and women as friends.

Re: “Avoid Female Friends In Marriage” — Lady Recounts Painful Experience by DickenClarq(f):
This is so sad

The advice your female friends gave you is DUMB and you accepting such advise from them, you are DUMBER

Anyways; An advice is a choice. You either chose to accept or neglect it. That is why it is call 'ADD' - 'VICE' which means ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE. So it your choice to accept or reject any form of additional help someone is giving to you in any situation you find yourself.

Of course you can give listening ears, but the decision is always yours to make at the end. So when I hear people blame others because they got wrong advice from them and foolishly followed it, I SMH IN DISGUST. Even mosquitoes have a mind of their own, even the most fool animal know when to Fight, Flight or Freeze.

I have never seen police arresting the advisers of Bandits, A Rapist, Murders etc. No one have ever rebuked or send fire on the Adviser of Satan before, We don't even know or care who his advisers are.

FINALLY, YOU ARE THE OWNER OF YOUR DECISION

May God help us

But that’s impossible. It’s like a guy not having any friend. Rather, choose your friends wisely.

Maybe her friends just want her to continue with their hangouts and party lifestyle.

No problem as long as they don't seek assistance from their single friends when in need.

How about choosing wise friends instead undecided

1 Corinthians 15:33(NIV)
"Do not be misled: “Bad company corrupts good character"

"Walk with the wise and become wise,
for a companion of fools suffers harm."
-Prov 13:20 NIV
