To be in love is a very nice feeling but kind of scary at the same time. It makes you lose control and it makes you vulnerable. For me, it is a double-edged sword. wink

I will only marry if that is very important to the (future) father of my kids because once I have kids with him, it is like being married for me. We are joint forever and he would have to do something dreadful for me to leave him. So whether I am married or not, does not mean that much to me.

What is the first happiest day in your life? cheesy

Funny enough, I don't usually remember or even feel like it's scary whenever I fall in love, even when it ends, somehow I just don't dwell, I enter the next relationship all brand new(after I've healed from the previous that is), a new relationship always feels like the first one for me, is that weird?

The day I have a baby will be the happiest day of my life, I have always know this even as a kid, I often wonder how it is that I've never gotten pregnant, given my love for kids cheesy.

I disagree.You saw an opportunity and you took it. You won your bride - even if it was after a seemingly short battle.


And here's why ^^; you fought may wars before and were battle hardened.

I love your story. I met and got engaged my wife in 3 months. People are always saying "that was too quick". I always reply, "over 15 years looking for a wife does not suggest haste.


TV
Right on, bro. This is why I was able to tell in about two months that I'd found the right one. Series of relationships eliminated a lot of wrong ideas.

And it'll be shorter if there's a next time.

Aye @ battle hardened. E do the babe like film trick. Hehehehe. Funny thing is I look really unkempt that day, once I saw her, though, I had no fear of approach.

15 years, bruv? Christopher Columbus has got nothing on you. I, also, don't think three months is too quick. I may have thought so at a point in my life, but as I grew older and understood better.

I haven't told the half of it; I literally started from scratch; ground zero - in fact worse than that. I had a very negative impression of marriage. I had only seen it modelled poorly, did not understand it in it's essence, hadn't a clue how to go about it and had all but decide against it.

Then I found my Saviour. Even from there it was still a long journey - although it was the furthest thing from my mind at first, I had eyes only for Him. But gradually and then finally. It's why I'm such a passionate advocate of marriage and especially based on Christian principles.

I've read your subsequent posts and too be honest, I'm not even really sympathetic. I have no doubt you have all it takes and are being led. Stay faithful, remain humble, and you will surely testify.

All you are going through is too strengthen and prepare you. I don't disparage the depth of what you felt for those now past, but when it happens, you will scarce remember them.

Freecocoa...I love that you love love! Don't worry, love will fall in love with you. Btw, I hope you're cocoa in complexion?

Ihe....you better change your stance and forget about that Six and a half year syndrome! If you don't get heartbroken you will never know how it feels bro. Seriously, get a wife bro and blow her with you Engilish!

TV...hmmm. Humans and taste. You never told us what transpired between you and your wife over the internet.

Buky met love and at a tender age. Hmmmm.

Moca...I love your story.

Aisha2, Babymama1 oya come and tell us yours.

I guess not everyday is for fights and quarrels and politics and whatever. Some evenings like this are for love stories!

Just that Seun is not married.

Edwife...your story.

Am not married. Will not be in a short while. But I look forward to it. Every night, I feel like having a baby sleeping beside me and holding me like its all he's got!

Sounds very romantic. cheesy

What happened then? Did you make the first move? What did you say?

Sorry for being so curious.

Oya, lemme complete my story. This is a very warm thread.

Trust me: I made the very first move. Politely. Gentlemanly. Courteous. Appeared simple. She was preparing for her one of her HND 2 exams.

After chatting with her for a while, I politely requested for her digits, which she gave me there and then. I just knew she was going to be my wife. I have been praying for a lifetime since my secondary school days...

Left Kaduna June that year and returned back to PH. I actually went to Kaduna for a professional training organised by my organisation. In the end, I returned with two certificates. .U know what I mean na?

We kept communications going even after my leaving Kaduna. Visafone hear am for our hand. The calls were long, numerous and relentless. I knew she had other suitors, but I was able to make her see reasons why she should spend the rest of our life with me. I knocked off the other suitors. Actually, she had an accident, and was using crutches. I guess that scared the other suitors, while I willingly and happily stepped in. I was there for her throughput that challenging period.

After careful thoughts and deliberations, I felt it was time to make the bold move before water go pass garri. A lady well endowed with such a sumptuous figure? Ridiculously amazing. Factory fitted pointers and spring loaded V-boot? Now couple that with an unassuming, amiable, affable nature! I no fit miss am...... I officially proposed to her November that year; 2008. She instantly accepted and like an Olympic torch, we lit the love candle. It's still burning this morning. She's sleeping beside me as I type.

We were in courtship till October, 2009, when it metamorphosed into the marriage it is today. It's being one of my smartest decisions in my whole life.

Today, we're blessed with two kids: a boy and a girl.

Sophyrocks, where art thou?

C'mon Ihe.

I'm sure you know in your heart of hearts that you can't go through lift tip-toeing on egg shells. So you had one (or a couple) of bad relationships. So what? Life goes on. Infact sometimes we need to be knocked off our horses so we get stronger and wiser. It's not about feeling sorry for yourself when you hit the ground, but about getting up, dusting yourself and moving on.

Life's too short for regrets. Grab it with both hands while you can.

An African man will always be an African man. There's a "particular" way we love our women structured.

See all wetin only you dey chop on a regular basis... I envy you ooooo gringringrin


I love your story man.... Very lovely, I like the part where you said you had been praying for your wife since secondary school. I'm assuming you're of the Christian faith?, as practicing Christians, we can't overemphasize the importance of prayerfully seeking a wife, it really is the best way to search .

I must say again... Very nice experience you got there, on behalf of every other person in this thread- Thank you for sharing.
