Nollywood Actress Blessing Obasi posted on instagram that marrying late wasn't a decision she willingingly took but rather,a process of self discovery,resilience and defying societal expectations.
She made this revelation in reaction to a discussion show about the difficulties and challenges single women in their 30s encounter.She wrote:
"I know,I had to jump on this conversation because, after several years of feeling like an outsider in a world that often equates a woman's worth with her marital status, I've finally stepped into a chapter that I crafted on my own terms.
Getting married at an older age wasn't just a choice;it was a journey of self discovery, resilience, and breaking free from societal norms that tried to dictate my happiness.
The pressure and stigma were like unwelcome shadows, whispering doubts and casting long, lonely nights. But in those moments of solitude, I found strength. I learned that love isn't a race, nor is marriage a trophy for early achievement. It's about finding someone who understands the chapters of your past and wants to write the future ones with you.
So here I am, not a bride of youthful naivety, but a woman adorned in the wisdom of her years, ready to embark on a shared journey of love, respect, and partnership. And to those still walking their path, remember:your life, your pace, your story. Embrace it".

He is just young and mature. I love this his statement I read somewhere, " The first year of their marriage,he will never be the reason they will have quarrel at home and he maintained his word ".
DeleteThat's someone that loves and cares about your feelings .
She’s an inspiration and a testament of faith in God that there’s nothing God cannot do and what you want, God gives to his children. God is never late.
