❤️SWEET AND BITTER💖 As people push you to get married, think before you oblige to pressure, take your time. Imagine handcuffing you with a stranger for life, that's exactly how marriage is. So just imagine how you will feel sometimes when she is no more doing the shakara that she used to do. Imagine when she wakes up with a gown that can size 4 people and you're not able to see the part of her body that she was fronting for you before marriage. Imagine seeing her real face without makeup every morning. 💯% of newly married couples one time or the other usually regretted getting married at some point Some people will wish they waited a little while others will start looking for opportunity to get out. There are only a few people who made up their mind to stay married forever. Before getting into married, check if you're mentally ready Check if you're matured in judgement. Check if you're ready to tolerate what you call shit Stop copying what you see on social media they are all edited, not real. Do you want to stay happy in your marriage? If yes, then do this one thing, zero your mind from every marital negativity, just make up your mind that you're in, and you're in for life. How often do you bring in God into your marriage? It should not be an option. As couples, stop buying property in secret. You're already convincing yourself that the marriage will not work, STOP. Especially our wives, stop buying property in your brother's name, sooner or later, you will start feeling independent and uncomfortable to be under the control of a man. My follow husband, forget the popular campaign of gender equality, Our wives can not function without us. They need support, advice, and guidance. Give it to them, and you will enjoy your marriage even when they pretend as if they don't need it. Dear men, your wife is already busy with house chores and taking care of kids. Instead of making things more difficult for her, GET BUSY. Just get busy. They will complain that you're too busy, but the truth is, no woman love her husband to stay with her 24/7. So get busy. If you don't have anything to do, look for one corner, sit down, and read bible. After all, to finish reading genesis to revelation will take time. Even when you finish, start all over. Just get busy. Remember, SWEET AND BITTER in marriage is 50/50. So you're the one to work on the SWEET aspect and make it supercede the BITTER aspect of marriage. Let's make our marriage work. We can do it. My little contribution as I celebrate today with my wife. Happy anniversary to us
