Hmmmm...it is well.

I think a good marriage is a Union of two who perfectly understand the importance of respect, team spirit , peace, family, fairness and the little things that make the other happy. This is tough but quite simple...just get a good person that shares almost the same views about everything with you.

I think couples should learn to respect, be fair and be each other' peace.

Now who made me a marriage expert? I just want peace in my life biko

Chubhie:

Iam an old man. I agree that tradition and religion were tools used by men to keep our women down. Religion and tradition are currently imploding as the feminine awakes to her true powers.

LordKO:
[s]It's obvious that you don't know the factual meaning of submissiveness. The inestimable value of a woman lies in three attributes, meekness (which submissiveness is its attitudinal manifestation), sweetness and selflessness. Submissiveness isn't the same thing as feeble-mindedness - it doesn't mean absence of self-dominion and outspokenness[/s].

Elder0001:


Old men don't refer to themselves as old men.

Their actions portray them as "old men"

LordKO:



It's obvious that you're mentally unstable. Vamoose and look for your ilk elsewhere.

MilitaryInvade:


Hmmm.
Well explained.

I particularly stuck with this simple but helpful expression

"Just get a good person that shares almost the same views about everything with you."

Thanks but can you define your view of who a good person is?

Kindly explain what you mean by a good person?

sisisioge:


A good person is fair in his/her dealings. A good person respects humanity/God and everything held dear. A good person his guided not by religion but a clear conscience. A good person would not deliberately cause sorrows unto others. A good person understands that the best worlds are shared worlds.


Biko no ask me another question. What's your old moniker?

Elder0001:
Nobody is forcing women to stay in such marriages !
Blame it on your fellow women who refuse to be financially independent for their own good before going into marriage . Women stay in abusive marriages not because of any societal norms or stereotype but because of their financial status , they're afraid of leaving because they can't fend for themselves.

I've said it before that the reason most men marry poor women isn't because of love but because they know they can cheat ,abuse and do all shîts to a poor woman and she'll be afraid to leave because of her financial status.

generationz:
I doubt that

Most women wouldn't dare stab the man for the same reason they choose to stay in such abusive relationship - the fear of being a single (maybe jobless) mom.


They are also scared of what society will say and how they will be judged. So, they continue to endure torment instead of working away.

sisisioge:
I will tell you this...the thing called marriage has tired me no be small

I hope you're alright OP. It is well.
