The best marriage is when you are completely enamored by each other, and nothing can come between you. If only this could always be the case! Sadly, this is not always the case. Sometimes, things come up in a relationship that affects the flow. An example is when your husband has a crush on another …
I’ve yet to see a healthy marriage in which both parties are happy without respect being a major part of their lives. Even among friends, the absence of respect can spell doom for that relationship. This is because respect is the bedrock of any thriving relationship. It’s like the thread that holds the fabric of …
I don’t know about you, but I want my husband to always see me as the center of the universe. I don’t want him looking at me and wondering what he was thinking proposing marriage to me. You may think this can only happen when he no longer loves, and you’d be wrong. A man …
“When people cheat, what goes through their minds?” Have you ever wondered this? Every cheating incident comes with its own story, hurt, and consequences. It’s not something that’s ever gotten used to or will be normalized, no matter how much our world tries to make it seem normal. When a man cheats on his wife, …
“Love is not enough, baby. Come to me, molowo.” The lyrics of this Nigerian song just keep playing in my head, and for good reason, which I will establish in this article.

But we all know how important respect is in a relationship. So, how do you ensure …
With the rise in the clamor for equality of both genders, you would think that most women wouldn’t mind having a weak husband. However, this doesn’t seem to be the case. In my conversations with many ladies, even some of the most radical feminists I know, I have noticed a desire for a strong man. …
It is always said that marriage should have the highest form of transparency and vulnerability. And that isn’t wrong. When two people get married, they’re meant to become one, willing to share any and everything with each other. Secrets are not a usual occurrence in a marriage, or at least they shouldn’t be. But that’s …
As a kid, I attended a charismatic Pentecostal church. We had some of the weirdest prayer points that usually involved enemies dying either by fire or whichever way God chose to orchestrate it. Now that I am older, I know better than to involve myself in such prayers. The point is that I saw many …
Marriage is that institution where love and hate can cohabit. Lol! Follow me please… I’ll explain.

I can relate to what this feels like, …
