Marriage is not a bed of roses madam, I will suggest you confide in an elderly person, most preferably your mom.

I read a thread here sometimes ago where Men were advised to marry and learn to love those who love them and only use and dump those they love.I asked how does one learn to love but my question was left unanswered, the ones who tried to answer only danced around it. No procedure or How to was provided and I laughed. How men bask judiciously in so much ignorance amuse me! They believe women learn to love so they can do it too.But only the wise one would ask how women easily divert this so called love on their children as soon as they are born neglecting the fathers. Was the love ever there?


The truth is you can never learn to love, you can only learn to appreciate.Love is not something you can create but Gratitude, you can. The misconception comes when people mix up love and gratitude. Contrary to what we see movies like a man learning to love the woman he was force to marry, No! he only learned to appreciate and live with the woman after his brain has been reconfigured by a terrible situation that might have caused him to lose the Good woman.

Op, you can't learn to love. You can only learn to appreciate, learn to be with and learn to accept your Man. In this case, look at the positive sides of things, compare his good qualities to what others do not have and accept him. I wish you luck.

Breaststroke:


For some inexplicable reason this made me laugh.

I think unselfish reasons would be ones closely aligned with what heaven originally intended, namely

1. Companionship
2. Sex/intimacy within God's blueprint.

@ OP, sorry I don't know what might help.
Pls what kind of sex is God's blueprint

I got married as a young virgin...probably didnt understand what love was all about then....

I've never really felt love or being loved in my marriage..coupled with some other marriage issues..

I wear the shoes and I know where it hurts...all I need is advices on how to build my love life and not yabs pls...it's very hurtful cry

I checked your profile and noticed that your most visited forum is the Dating forum. Visiting such a forum will breed wrong romantic feelings in your heart. It is as if you're still searching for Prince Romeo. You're waiting for that shining knight who will sweep you off your feet.

Be pragmatic. You're already married. Only single people should visit such places. Stop hurting and putting yourself in danger by visiting such places. Stop wishing for a fantasy

When you said young virgin, how old were you? I feel the minimum age a lady should marry is 25 while for a man is 26years. There may be a lot of immaturity if you marry below that age.

Nonsense talk.






To the OP,

Either you or your husband or both of you married for selfish reasons. Love is permanent when two people marry for unselfish reasons.


Nothing is permanent, not even love. Marriage sustenance transcends just love. Love ends and can be reignited.

Ignore them all. They will only cause disaster in your life. Simply face ur life and marriage. Read up books about marriage and passion.

sweetmelanin:
OP I understand how you are feeling... and trust me, as you get older, it will affect your sex life in devastating ways.
I know the love isn't there anymore but do you at least like him as a person? If so, you guys can still live together in friendship. There are marriages out there like that (mine inclusive)... sometimes it's hard to walk away from a marriage when there isn't a " tangible " reason like domestic violence, cheating etc... society can be so judgemental and it really sucks. I totally get you dear.

To me, the most important thing in a relationship/marriage should be true companionship. Once that is not there or lost, then things may not be as they used to.

In true companionship, you learn to understand, appreciate, love and respect each other. Add other things such as good sexual life and financial stability, hence, a solid union is built.
Re: I'm Struggling With Love In My Marriage by jclassiq(m): 5:29pm On Nov 07, 2019
What do you mean by "never felt love or being loved in marriage"? You mean he doesn't take you to romantic date nights, surprises you with gifts, serves you breakfast in bed? Abi?

Or does he treat you badly? Neglects you?

Madam, I have an advice for you: IF IT'S NOT BROKEN, PLS DON'T FIX IT.


Na so e dey start, before long now you don begin dey run around dey sleep around in the name of " experiencing love". Nonsense.

Abeg u better park well for your husband house.
Re: I'm Struggling With Love In My Marriage by Mike008(m): 5:30pm On Nov 07, 2019
Seek the advice of a professional counsellor.
Responses here won't help much.
With a counselor you get to communicate face to face, heart to heart. If possible your husband will be invited too.
Don't allow (especially unmarried) folks like us relate your situation with what we see in movies, hear from others but never really experienced and advice you therefrom.
Relationships are far distinct from marriages.
Not every situation applies to marriage.
If you can't find a counselor, look up book on marriage written by experts.
I loved my GF so much but was never ever able to give a convincing answer about marriage.
