So you can stay with the same woman for 50 years even if you don't respect her that much?

Ephesians 5:22-25

The question here,
is it love or respect that keeps marriage?
Mutually exclusive here...
RESPECT KEEPS MARRIAGE QED!

johnrix:


Then it means you don't see a scenario where love and respect coexist separately. What would you say about love for a sibling, but no respect for that sibling based on behavior. You can love them without respecting them due to their actions.

Oluwafhemmi10:
Love is the GREATEST just as God commandeth, so where there's love, respect will surely follow suit...Love covers all

Married men in the house, which do you see keeps your marriage - love for your wife or Respect for her?

On one hand, one lady who is all nice and sweet, puts all her emotions into the rship, but her attitude, intellect needs some work. You are ready to help build her, educate her but you fear you might not respect that much. Her dream is a loving husband.

On the other hand, another lady, is not the loving/romantic type type, a little cold, but she is responsible and smart. You respect her a lot, but it looks, you will both have to grow the love. She'll have the tendency, say any disrespect, I'm packing my bags instead of working things out. Her primary focus is to be respected in her marriage.

Lastly, what do you ladies want? I hear some women say love, some say respect, some say both. It varies based on those who believe strongly in love vs those who don't want disrespect from their husbands. But one thing is sure, most women deep down want one over the other.

Dear Nigerian husbands.
I don’t want either LOVE or RESPECT from y’all.
Reason? You are quite INCAPABLE of such basic emotions. Please, stop deceiving yourselves and acknowledge you are not created to give love or respect.

Please, PAY THE DAMN BILLS and TAKE CARE OF YOUR KIDS. As in 50/50! Simple.

I am fine with that. I can love and respect myself with or without your help.

Thanks!❤️

No long talk!

Both LOVE & RESPECT are needed to sustain a marriage. In addition there're many other factors aside the two aforementioned above like compatibility, truthfulness, compassionate e.t.c
