Reasons Why Men Are Called "Groom" And The Woman "Bride" On Wedding Day. by Opeomoope: 8:09pm On Aug 27, 2017 |
Why is the newly wedded man called groom
and the woman called bride?
A friend of mine got tired of his wife just
about six months after wedding. He
complained bitterly to me about her and told
me that he has concluded to break up with
her; he went on to say that he was sure that
he made a mistake.
I did not respond immediately because I
knew I must tell him that right thing, so I
went home.
And that is what birth this message.
Many men have broken up with their wives
because they end up not being the wife that
they have dreamt of. But they have forgotten
that on their wedding day was when the
man was commissioned for the new task.
Nobody calls the woman wife on her
wedding day but bride, because it is the
man that will groom his bride to become the
wife.
That is why the man is called ‘bridegroom or
groom’ and the word grooming has to do
with patiently nurturing, teaching, tending
and helping someone to become what he or
she should be.
It is therefore believed that a man that takes
a woman to the altar of marriage is matured
enough to patiently groom his bride to
become the wife. The man is not supposed
to just expect the bride to automatically
become the wife, she must be groomed.
It is clear that many of us men have
unnecessary expectations when we were
getting married, we want some magic to
happen to our wives, we want them to
become what we have had in mind about
who we want our wives to be; not
considering the fact that the woman does
not know what is on your mind except you
teach her.
Our expectations are often too unrealistic,
because we don’t remember that change
takes time and we can only expect
something from someone that knows what
we want.
So before you think of breaking up, have
you groomed her? Have you given her time
to understand you? Hope you realize that a
turtle will never become a hawk? God often
brings people that are opposites of each
other together in marriage so that they can
help each other in their place of
weaknesses.
If your wife is weak where you are weak,
then where will you get the strength that is
needed? The problem with many of us is
that we don’t accept people before
attempting to change them. Of course, our
wives are not from our backgrounds, so it
will take time for them to adjust.
Stop trying to change her, accept her, love
her, teach her and be patient with her; that
is what grooming is all about. She is going
to be your wife but she is your bride now,
so groom her. Stop complaining about her,
she may be a turtle and you a hawk, she
cannot fly so be patient with her.
I don’t believe that your marriage can’t
work, be patient and allow God to help you. 3 Likes |

OP I see some sense in what you wrote but it's not balanced. What if the woman refused to be groomed? You seem to put the bulk at the groom's while the bride, according to you virtually does nothing. Grooming in marriage is a responsibility for both parties. The groom must learn to love the wife by all means while the bride makes it easy by submitting to the groom. Marriage becomes hard labour when one of the parties fail to cooperate |

Nice one @op. But I believe dis is something dat should commence from courtship. A guy should start d process of grooming his woman to wat he wants at courtship. But at d same time d woman must be willing to be submissive. Except two agree, dey can't walk together. |
