I read a post where a lady asked women“what’s your greatest regret in life” and most of the comments said MARRIAGE.
Someone commented on the post, asking why people marry the wrong person, here are some reasons;
1. Pressure; most people just get married because of family pressure.
A family where everyone is directly and indirectly pushing them to marry.
They keep reminding you of your age and making reference to your friends or cousins that are married.
Additionally , some ladies also pressure themselves, they marry because their friends are all married, they are so desperate to get the “Mrs” title and they may settle for just marry anyone.
2. Money; some women from poor backgrounds are often intentional to marry a rich man. This can make them to settle for any man as long as he is rich. They would rather cry in a rich man’s house than to suffer with any man.
3. Pity; There are people who have married men they never love just out of pity: they don’t want to look like a bad person, especially if they have dated for long.
4. Low self esteem; there are women who settle with someone they are aware that he won’t treat them well because they feel they will never find someone better or someone who loves them.
5. Fear of the unknown; the fear of “what if I didn’t get to meet another person”.
Some women might settle for the available person even when they are not happy with their choice, just to avoid the fear of loneliness.
6. Family foundation; some women come from homes where the women rarely experience peaceful marriages. it’s just like a pattern that seems to follow the women.
7. Change; humans are prone to change: some women got married to men who seem amazing only to be faced with an unexpected change in the marriage on the long run.
8. Ignoring red flags; some women are so eager to settle down that they ignore warning signs, believing they can be able to change him.
To mention but a few….
Happy and healthy marriage is achievable, while some people regret their marriages, there are people sincerely enjoying their marriages.
I’m not talking about those who mask their truth online. I am talking about those who are genuinely happy.
A healthy marriage is achievable. know what you want, write it down, and make it bold and clear.
Choose the right person for yourself,( Someone you are compatible with, someone you can tolerate, someone you have same vision with) and involve God in your decision.
Make the right choice, and if things change tomorrow, you will have peace knowing it was not always that way.
My prayer is that God will align you with the right person and make your home peaceful, Amen!
