Comedian Basketmouth’s estranged wife, Elsie Okpocha, has given her two cent to couples and intending couples what to look out for to keep a happy marriage.
According to mother of three, she said people should ignore the wrong narrative flying about marriage.
In her words:
Hey guys, I just want to remind you that marriage is a beautiful thing. People don’t get it twisted. Ignore the narrative that is constantly being put away that marriage is tough because people aren’t even in marriages. If there are 100 people that are leaving a marriages today. There are 100,000 people who are still happily married. People change. People grow and then marriage change you. Sometimes marriage makes you bring out that part of you that you never knew existed.
That’s what made you do. The thing the one thing that stands out for me is kindness. Whatever you do, make sure you marry a partner that is kind.
It shouldn’t just end with you, marry a partner. That is kind to you, your siblings, your parents, to your loved ones also, everyone who means something to you. Marry partner who sees your parents as his or her parents, and sees your siblings as their own siblings.
When you marry a person that is kind when you fight, because you must fight, maybe not literally but quarrels, arguments, he or she still looks out for you. They’re worried that you haven’t eaten. They want to get your food even though they are not talking to you.
So in all you’re doing while you’re making preparations or your plans, make sure it is with a kind person, because kindness is key. So good luck.
