Marriage is so sweet,please dont let the sad stories of break ups get to you...tell your own story,make a difference...give someone hope!
MARRIAGE IS SWEET!
Hello Dearest Stella, its an honour to share my chronicle of hope with you and my fellow SDKers.
I met my hubby to be when I was 20 and an undergraduate. We courted for 4yrs and got married 2years ago. Our marriage is blessed with a beautiful daughter.
Before I finally agreed to choose my hubby over all the men who were asking for my hand in marriage, I considered the following attributes which are;
His stand with God
His Temperament
His social life
His relationship with his parents and siblings
His ability to share the much or little he has with me and finally his dentition(lol). These were actually the things I was looking out for and he passed it all. Surprisingly, my mother thought other wise has I had other good loooking suitors who were so tall and handsome, earn good pay and stingy to death.
The ones who were not stingy had questionable characters or did not have the fear of God. My father was behind me because he believed In me. After much talk and prayers, I finally convinced my mother and she gave her blessings. We had a successful wedding ceremony and married life began.
During courtship, my then hubby provides all my needs down to my undies and I felt it was because we were dating but dear Bvs, it got better in marriage. His stand in God was awesome, my in-laws adore me infact I visit them more than my parents. As for being a father, he is the best as he helps me alot and I forget that I dont have a maid. He eats whatever I feed him with, doesn't keep late night and has helped my spiritual life. He is a good man and the most handsome man to me even though my mama say he no fine(lol)I like am like that.
when my mother came for omuguo, she was amazed at the kind of love and affection he has for me and she confessed that I got marriage right. Stella, you might find it hard to believe bu since I got married we have never had cause to quarrel. Its been God in my marriage. What worked for me might not work for everyone but I thought I should share.
Dear single ladies, marriage is sweet and enjoyable dont be discouraged. As for many troubled marriages, I speak peace into your homes in Jesus Name. Warm Regards.
N.B Okija wife, why do I think you are nice person outside this blog. I love you.
Yes!...Marriage is sweet and we should not focus on the storm.
Truly there are some great marriages out there.

Good to read something refreshingly different. Not all marriages are bitter
DeleteGod bless your home.
ReplyDeleteThat's a real man, providing everything even during courtship.
Shame to all stingy men!
And ladies who want to form good girl/ miss independent, stop it!
Demand!
Demand!!

ReplyDeleteThis Richard shud do and marry u biko...this love is too much...
DeleteLol. Does dukeofspades love you back?
DeleteAunty otuocha my thoughts exactly. Richard as of this moment, still writes poetic love messages/poems to his imaginary Caro. I hope he finds her. He runs Escape nite club.
DeleteHe once hit on me, hot guy too! But I was heavily involved with my husby (then bobo) if not....
I even suspect this is Nnadi himself. Lol
Whatever rocks your world girl!!
I love u Afphie Boy! aka Baby Boo aka Sugar love aka The prince of my heart.
Shuga if and when I write our chronicles, Stella's page will be too small.
Thank u for accepting me skin and warts. I couldn't have asked for a better hubby. We quarrel like hell (more like I quarrell u),but then we ALWAYS make up and its so awesome it still leaves me speechless. baby Riri got the best father in the universe and I got the best hubby in all the nine planets combined!
A times in the office in the the middle of a meeting I smile sheepishly to myself cos I remembered one or two sweet things u did to/for me. You've always called me your witch cos I always worry u with everything and yes! I am Darl.
This is not to say u be saint(if I hear!) But Honey ure a good man with a LARGE heart and I thank God for giving me u. Over maturity dey worry u! I can't stop myself. Forget this piece I wrote about Nnadi, he's a fine man yes! But compared to u?? No way men!! Am I crazy??
Pls wives learn to appreciate ur man esp if he tries his possible best to keep u happy no matter what. U don't know what ur fellow counterparts are passing through in their marriages/ relationship.
P.S I saw that piece u left in my breast pocket this morning.. Lol I'm still blushing u silly!
Yours' Grateful Wifey

ReplyDeleteSweet
ReplyDeleteHmmmm! Thank God for ur life...
ReplyDeleteAunty gwegs u sound like ur life's devoid of luv
DeleteIn ya dream
DeleteGive me hope I beg.Happy sunday aunty stella
ReplyDeleteNice!!...
ReplyDeleteThey will soon flood this post with "come back and tell us this story after 5 years"...
I have been married for over 10 years and the only time I quarreled with my husband was the first year after our wedding....and since then,it has been rosy...
My man is very spiritual...he don't miss Wednesday and Sunday service...
Right now he is still in church with the kids and am home alone eating and watching TV...
He do the morning devotion...infact,he is my prayer warrior...
The problem with some girls is that they like those club going,bead gang,ass level dudes...those guys are only good for fun mehn...please when getting married,choose a normal cool headed guy that has the fear of God...
In my next world,I will choose a born again like my husband for marriage...
Characteristics of my hubby 2 be!
DeleteVery spiritual
*shinesteeth
My husband won't even as agree to go to church alone. Said it's wrong. Couples should go to church together. But then how much of God's word which he knows and hears does he practice. I married him cos he's a Christian but the guy got too much bitterness and resentment inside him. Would have been better to know I married an unbeliever. If I get so busy for morning prayers, na so so malice o. He won't even call for prayers the next day .he ll rather wake up very early and pray on his own (while keeping malice with me o).
DeleteSo can I count myself amongst those married to good Christian men?
Wow an happy for u dear....
DeleteIn fact we just ended 1 week fast with quarrel. If it were possible for him, he would have hit me. So what was he fasting and praying throughout the week?
DeleteHmmm,nice one
DeleteMay God bless your home
Why r u contradicting urself, madam linda sorosoro, u hv told us abt ur hubby before na
DeleteU must be a winner member! Heaven on earth ma!
DeleteShe goes to T.B Joshua's church abi synagogue. So is that hell on earth? Lol just kidding.

ReplyDeleteYes ooo,@poster, I LOVE YOU TOO!
DeleteAnd your marriage shall last till,dear do you path,in JESUS NAME!!!

Like I said some days back,my hubby has the biggest shop in Alaba international,oh yes!!! Shop worth millions of naira and he doesn't joke with me and the kids despite his money......though there are ups and down especially when It comes to his mama matter,but he knows am a very crazy person,so him dey maintain.....
To most women,please always have a back up plan incase of necessity and don't ever settle for less!!!
Ha this married hoe is talking where responsible married women are talking...wonders shall never end.

DeleteThank God for you poster. Of course your marriage should turn out right because your husband knows God. God makes all things perfect. May he continue to keep yout home, Amen.
ReplyDeleteLucky you! My dear Enjoy your marriage well. I likme the God factor, you can never go wrong when you put God 1st, it's not like we don't know but some of us just like the "whatsup guys"
ReplyDeleteLol
Finally one person admits marriage is sweet after all. Haba. Cheat snoop all I get to hear ds days. #hugerelief#
ReplyDeleteI support
ReplyDeleteI have a very wonderful marriage as well. We've been married for 9 years and blessed with 2 kids. A boy and a girl. My hubby is everything this poster described and more. In my own case he is extremely good looking. One thing the 2 men seem to have in common- sincere love for God.
ReplyDeleteTo my single sisters...the bad boy or heaviest spender is not always the best choice. Please seek a man who has a "genuine" heart for God. Peace and Love!
Actually tot my husband had sincere love for God. My husband prays more when we are keeping malice can you imagine.
DeleteBut my Aunty married a Pastor. This guy used to spend all his days in church, used his last money to buy band for the church. Seemed as genuine sa daylight. After marriage, started beating her up, talking down, became so lazy and despondent, all the while still being a "Pastor".
DeleteTell dem ooo
DeleteSome men are church goer and not God fearing.
DeleteVery good... it can only get better. May God give us the right partner that would make our union worthwhile
ReplyDeleteAmen that's the most important thing
DeleteAwesome
ReplyDeleteIt's well wt ur home
ReplyDeleteI love the write up yea I believe marriage is sweet but some are extremely bitter bad but in all we single ladies pray for a good man to love adore us and a blessed marriage
ReplyDeleteWhat is this one saying?
ReplyDeleteOf course, more likely than not, marriage is sweet na. If not, people. Won't be getting into it na. It's like the argument of if technology has done more harm than good. If it has done more harm, then no one would be using such technology. So while I am happy that your marriage has been good so far, I must tell you that I am amazed that you said it has been God, as if God is absent in marriages going through the storm.
I hope you will share when he starts sleeping with young fresher girls sha.
Hehehe
Lol this man.
DeleteCan't you just believe there are still me who won't go outside ???
DeleteYes ! There are ! Not because theit wife's are the most beautiful or freshest but because they want to please God
Don't be a doubting Thomas. Come on
Im sorry but u make no sense.. u sound really confused. .did u read the chronicle? I bet not

ReplyDeleteThank you Poster, we need happy marriage tales! xoxo
Be ready to hear things like; come back in 10 years time lol. A good man is a good man no matter the number of years n vice versa. Happy for u poster. Some will see signs but will stay put like the chronicle I just read before reading this one.
ReplyDeleteMarriage is indeed sweet ooh, poster I thank God for u ooh, ave bn married for 5 years with 3 adorable kids, my husband worships the ground I walk on, he's very handsome like the looks of cebrities, very comfortable but not rich.I met him a play boy but I refused to give in cos of that, he changed for good cos of me.He's my first love and I dated him 4 year with no single reason to doubt his sincerity, else girfriends threatened me, friends cant belief a woman can change him that much, I got married to him and he totally surrendered to God and even drew me closer to God cos I was just a normal pretty good girl that have the fear of God not a core born again christian. Huby taught me everthing about love making, he's once bad boy roles is stll very much demostrated in love making, he' s so caring in all angle that since we got married ave always bn the one cruising the more expensive of our two cars, dnt keep late nights, loves my food, adores my kids, gives me everything he can afford cos I stayed at home 4 years of the marriage. Always proud to show me off cos am a beautifl woman ooh, we' ve never quarrelled but we argue alot after which I wll carry face, but he wll always apologise even when am wrong before I wll bring myself down to apologise too, expresses his love to me everywhere.the mum transfered the love she has for him to me, the siblings dnt ave option, people wll jokingly say that I jazzed him lol.The list is endless that most times I dnt know what to pray for I wll start thanking God for blessing me and to keep him alive and healthy for me, I know he might read this cos we relax after night prayers to read sdk blog ( we dnt lock our phones ooh), I wll love you forever my soul mate. The best part of my life has been knowing him, I weep bittertly when I read all this marriage wahalal, and just pray More couple will know and serve God in truth and spirit cos thatz the only solution to marriage probles, I didnt mention that he, s 35 and am 30, we stll look like boyfriend and girlfiend when we are in outing mood ooh, marriage is indeed a thing of joy.
ReplyDelete3 kids in 5 years?!
DeleteYou strong well well.
I tap into this ijn,Lord please make my home a great and perfect home.May God continue to keep ur family great ijn.much love
DeleteBecause i also want a happy home i will pardon your typos
DeleteMy dear Poster, and I pray sincerely that yours will be sweeter and sweeter everyday. Some of us were not as lucky/blessed as you but even after leaving a horrible marriage, I preach to whoever will hear that marriage is great. I thank God I do not have to deal with a crazy husband and after leaving, I started to see truly that marriage is not like the bondage I was in. More CoH for the young ladies and men who might be surrounded by bad marriages and not know any better. Let them know there is better out there please.
ReplyDeleteIf you do not pick well, you will suffer...that is just the truth. Pick well with the Holy Spirit's leading and your marriage (even with challenges) will be alright. I love this!
Thank you for posting this. I am 29 and still searching. No serious boyfriend or even prospects but I believe that God will perfect all that concerns me in due time. Aunties , family members are always telling me not to believe in love that all men are the same -cheats, nasty etc and there's nothing sweet in marriage, I should just accept he will disappoint me later in life no matter how good it starts. I know every marriage will certainly have a rough time but to be constantly bombarded with 'don't believe in love' is not easy as a single person. Thanks again for posting this. As you sought to encourage others, you will never lack favour from God.
ReplyDeleteMy friends thunk I should just manage any guy as 30 is approaching but I'm seriously holding unto Christ for a good man. I didn't grow up with lovey dovey parents, popsi was at work 90% of the time, even Sundays he always has a 'church meeting', we never went to church as a family, I can actually count on one hand how many times we've been to a function as a family. But all the same I am hopeful. I refuse to adopt other people's fears, disappointments etc. I know I will marry well and have a sweet marriage in Jesus name.
Thanks again for posting
God wil grant u ur heart desire darling *hug*
Delete😘
Oh yeah...I love this!
ReplyDeleteFinally *wide grin*
ReplyDeleteReadin dz has givn soooo much hope
God will help us all as ladies... I have been through worst experience in life but its quite unfortunate the guy is unbeliever. And I suffered it
ReplyDeleteMarriage is sweet ooo.
ReplyDeleteMarriage is sweet.
ReplyDeleteThe first two years,i believe,are the most crucial years of marriage. I thank God i married someone who complements me. I am careless,he is not. Both of us dont talk much. We are not into friends or going out a lot. We have been together for a while,having kids early and now just chilling.
We disagree over issues sometimes and during that time,i go dumb. That is my show of anger. Then,he will be coming very close to me,asking me questions so that i will talk,then he will do something silly and i will laugh and that is the end of my dumbness.
Continuu⬇
The key to a good relationship lies in understanding each other. No one is perfect.
Knowing your partner means knowing where his mumu buttons lies. Locate it n press it always. Know what makes your man's heart melt: your tears,special dishes,blowing,anything. Use it to your advantage.
Above all,know it that Sex IS FOOD.
God created it for you n your spouse.
As u climb into bed forget speaking in tongues,FUCK YOUR SPOUSE. BANG AM CORRECT,NACK AM,LAAJAA YA.It was ordained by God for us.
Good night
Poster, you must be a nice woman. Thats every man 's prayer.
ReplyDeleteJust like the women, some men have married the wrong woman.
It is always beautiful when 2 nice and lovely people get married .
Please, Note that it is not always about being spiritual and going to church..Some "prayer warriors and born agains" are more wicked than some ordinary people .
Marriage Is so sweet...
ReplyDeleteMarriage is sweet. The challenges are there to strengthen and draw us closer to God. Its all about prayer and having faith in God. I told God that I want my marriage to be transparent even if my hubby do anything stupid he shld let me know and if it involves any lady na laugh I go laugh the lady because I can't walk out for her to enter but she'll run mad. kpom-kwem!
ReplyDelete@poster God will continue to bless your union. And those aspiring to get married one day forget about the outward looks (his pocket, generousity, etc), know what you really want in marriage and pray to God about it.
