If you havenât gotten married and youâre about to, this may guide you. Speaking from experience.
You see those first one- two years of marriage are usually the sweetest. It will feel like problems wonât come.
But from the third year up till around the fifth year thatâs the problem stage. For some couples, it even starts earlier, within the first year.
The longer you stay married, the more both of you will understand each other.
When we newly got married and love dey shack us, there were things SGM could do that would make me angry for days. But now? I hardly get angry. Why? Because Iâve been there and grown through it.
Donât get me wrong, I have my own big flaws too. But we have grown past that stage.
There are days you will feel like saying âI no do again,â days youâll want to pack your bags and run to your fatherâs house or your own house.
Both husband and wife have annoying traits. Nobody is perfect. But those annoying traits are what make us human.
As time goes on, you learn to overlook small things. You learn your spouse, and you realize: this person is actually meant for me.
Me and my SGM are simply a product of years of quarrels and a decision to stick together. We talk about our feelings. We make amends when necessary. Thatâs what keeps us going.
Every successful marriage you see today has passed through that stage. And that stage is what helps you truly understand your spouse.
So if youâre new in marriage and your spouse is beginning to irritate you hang in there.
Learn to communicate your feelings it helps you see things from your spouseâs point of view. And work on your ego, so pride doesnât rob you of the beauty in marriage.
At the end of the day, having a true companion in this life is one of the sweetest gifts God gave mankind.
Yagazie.
