Hello, do you know why we have failed marriages?
Do you know why divorce is the impetuous act carried at the slightest provocation?
Do you know one spouse tend to be the pampering mate?
That's because principles, likes and dislikes were not defined during courtship. When we talk about courting, we talk about the serious association of two grownups who are full-fledged to define their principles, likes and dislikes.
Period of courtship is the right time to define your principles. So many relationship mates always dance to the tone of their mates because they are always apologizing anytime they are at their right; which is hurtful to their mates. If you are lady, define your likes, dislikes, principles to your mates. Make him have high esteem for your unselfish likes and dislikes. Set the principles on which the relationship should be built. Don't always be at the apologetic side when you are sure you are right in all ramifications. That's the same for males.
Why should this strategy be taken while still courting?
~ it prepares your mate's mind on how to treat you during your marital journey.
~it makes your mates consider your emotions when carrying out an act.
~it makes your mate ditch his\her selfish attitude before the marital journey.
~ Your mate learns to say "am sorry" when he\she errs.
~your marriage life will be peaceful.
But when you fail to define your likes and dislikes, what happens?
~you will continue apologizing in marriage even when you are right.
~He/she will treat you like rag.
~you will be the one to regret
~your marriage might end
So pals, define your likes and dislikes when you are dating, courting. Nobody should be a slave in a relationship. Always make sure your partner accords you maximum respect before settling down with him\her. Don't wallow in that unreasonable notion that he\she will respect you after marriage. You don't learn how to use left hand in old age.
I repeat, DEFINE YOUR PRINCIPLES BEFORE MARRIAGE. A stitch in time saves nine. A person who loves you will stick with you and concur to your right principles.
