Iamgodskid: I'll tell u same thing I always like to tell ppl about relationship. Do not marry just because of love. Marry who you are truly committed to and who you can respect. Be disciplined and marry your type. Below was my advice to a friend in 2018 on this forum "I have discovered that love doesn't guarantee the success of a relationship. Love cannot help you stick to one person all year round, and on the other hand, cheating isn't always a product of not loving your partner. In fact, loving someone doesn't guarantee not falling in love with someone else. Relationships work out mostly because of our heads not our hearts. It works out because of our emotional maturity, empathetic intelligence and self discipline; because, time will come when you'll see more beautiful, handsome, romantic, intelligent, sexy, rich, curvy and God fearing people than the one you're in a relationship with. In those times, love will not help you. Self control will help you. Emotional intelligence will come to your rescue and commitment will keep you going. With those characteristics, no matter how you feel for someone else, the person you're committed to will rank first in your life. You think happily married people don't see better people than the ones they married to? You think they don't feel funny sometimes? You think they don't catch feelings? They do! But understanding that commitment is greater than feelings and it is the great arsenal that destroys those unhelpful impulses. You can fall in love with anyone, but building a relationship takes absolutely more than what attracted you to them and takes more than love. We are too fond of loving when it's convenient and sweet. We are too fond of loving when love is there; but that can only last for just the first 3 - 6 months of the relationship in many cases. After then, you'll realise that the feelings have dropped and it's now your responsibility to make the relationship work, not love's responsibility. Relationships cannot be readymade. You have to build it and it's never always about love, it requires commitment and intelligence. On the long run in marriages, it's not just love that keeps them together forever, it's determination and commitment. Everyone falls in love; it takes little or no effort to do that. But staying in love? Building a relationship? Only the strong and committed ones do that. That's why we must find that one person and commit to that one, discipline yourself and bridle your emotions. Building a relationship is hard work, it's like building a career, It's like pursuing a dream. It's always tough. At some point it will be so bitter but you can make it work by putting your heads together. You can scale through the trying times by staying focused and committed. The kind of love that attracts two people together is not the kind of love that will keep them together. Be emotionally strong, be self disciplined and above all, have the God factor that will give you the grace needed to reign you in. God Bless. 3 Likes 2 Shares

Persephone1: Oya, write this down. Extensively discuss and share individual principles about life. Evaluate and study each other to measure compatibility from day one. Do not take the word 'love' too seriously, focus more on physical relations and watch out for attributes such as respectfulness, fidelity, cleanliness, compassion, empathy, patience, forgiveness, tolerance and pay undivided attention to temperament and rationality. Comot mind for 'sabiness to knack'. E follow o, but with a partner that bears a choking poor character, you'd likely not be thinking of knacks. Overall, with most of the attributes I listed earlier plus controlled expectations, una go surely dey alright. Just no say no be Jesus you marry. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Spot on bro, but it’s usually a one way thing cos , we men, tend to respect women regardless of their status , beauty etc. But how will these daughters of Eve respect we men when we our pockets are not really full. As a man, the most important thing is to have money, your woman, her families will have the course to respect you, even if they do not like you. uncleck: 2 Likes 1 Share |

Moniya4Real:That is not totally correct, bro. No matter how wealthy you are, a disrespectful woman will always disrespect you. We are talking about a woman that started dating sugar daddies way richer than you when they were still teenagers. Respect is a character that has to be cultivated. If both partners are intentional about it right from their dating period, they'll consciously improve on it |

“respectfulness, fidelity, cleanliness, compassion, empathy, patience, forgiveness, tolerance and pay undivided attention to temperament and rationality” And equally important: Controlled expectations and or ‘inordinate ambition’. I can’t agree with you more. CoolAmbience: |

I quite agree with you, but I am a firm believer of the fact that All these can hardly be achieved without having the fear of God in one’s hear just like you rightly mentioned in the last paragraph . Psoul: 1 Like |

You cannot choose a goat as a partner and expect respect cos they only demand it but respect is earned. The purpose of pre-marital counseling. Treat ur, partner, the way you wish to be treated, and also learn ways to enjoy your marital life. and most importantly don't start what you can't finish, that is to say, don't start living like a couple while still in the dating period. 1 Like |

Dear Poster, Some of us are just hanging in there 'cos that was what we signed up for. It takes great wisdom and intelligence to know even ahead of getting married, that there will come a time when all the glitz and glamour would have died-down and the true reality of marriage that comes with lots of responsibilities and commitments vis-à-vis loss of "absolute freedom, will eventually play out. For me, love itself is a "commitment and as such, whatever you are committed to, you will always work at, irrespective of the rosiness or not. Each partner must however from time to time review the state of things and try as much as possible to bring back romance into marriages despite the challenges that naturally comes with the "over familiarities" #Shalom Iamgodskid: |
