In a healthy and respectful relationship, mutual understanding and cooperation are essential. While disagreements and differences are natural, there are certain behaviors that should not be tolerated....Read More

As a man, it is crucial to set boundaries and communicate openly with your wife. Here are aspects you should never tolerate:

1. Lack of Respect: Mutual respect forms the foundation of a strong relationship. Disparaging comments, insults, or belittling actions should never be tolerated…

2. Dishonesty: Trust is vital in any relationship. Dishonesty, whether about small matters or significant issues, erodes trust and can lead to serious consequences.

3. Abuse: Physical, emotional, or verbal abuse is never acceptable. If your wife resorts to any form of abuse, it’s crucial to seek help and establish a safe environment for both partners.

4. Controlling Behavior: Healthy relationships thrive on individual freedom and personal growth. If your wife exhibits controlling behavior, it’s important to address it and maintain a sense of autonomy.

5. Disregard for Boundaries: Everyone has personal boundaries, and these should be respected. If your wife consistently crosses these lines without regard for your feelings, it can strain the relationship

6. Neglect of Needs: Emotional and physical needs require attention and fulfillment. If your wife consistently neglects your needs or dismisses them, it’s important to communicate and seek resolution.

7. Financial Irresponsibility: Shared financial responsibilities demand accountability. If your wife consistently displays irresponsible financial behavior, it can lead to stress and strain on the relationship.

8. Lack of Support: A supportive partner is crucial in navigating life’s challenges. If your wife consistently fails to provide support or actively undermines your goals, it can hinder personal growth and happiness…

9. Refusal to Communicate: Effective communication is the backbone of a successful relationship. If your wife consistently avoids communication or refuses to discuss important matters, it can lead to misunderstandings and resentment.

10. Infidelity: Infidelity breaches trust and can have severe consequences on a relationship. If your wife engages in unfaithful behavior, it requires open communication and, in some cases, professional intervention to rebuild trust or consider separation.

In summary, a healthy relationship requires open communication, respect, trust, and a willingness to address issues constructively. Establishing clear boundaries and addressing problematic behaviors early on contributes to a strong and enduring connection ...Read More

It is essential to have good friends in life. Nowadays, having true friends is a significant blessing. While making friends can be easy, maintaining a genuine friendship is quite challenging. Often, we only realize the problems in a friendship when they arise. Therefore, it’s important to recognize the true qualities of your friends before Friendship Day. Here are some ways to identify a true friend:...Read More

Understanding Each Other

In a true friendship, your friend will never judge you. They will understand your flaws and weaknesses and offer help and support. On the other hand, a fake friend will judge you over every small thing and might pressure you to spend money. If you have people around you who constantly judge or question everything you say, it’s best not to ignore their habits.

Making Fun of You

Light arguments and jokes are normal in friendship, but if your friend makes fun of you in front of others and puts you down, it’s a big problem. A true friend will never share negative things about you with others. It’s better to stay away from such a friend as they can harm your dignity and self-esteem.

Gossiping Behind Your Back

People who talk badly about you behind your back or share your personal details with others are not true friends. Such individuals can cause more problems and trouble for you. Avoid these kinds of friends and seek out those who respect your privacy and support you.

Not Sharing in Your Joys

A true friend will always share in your happiness and celebrate your success. If your friend feels jealous of your happiness or isn’t pleased with your success, they cannot be your true friend. A genuine friend will stand by you in both happiness and sorrow and will celebrate your joys with you.

By keeping these simple tips in mind, you can identify your true friends and strengthen your friendships. True friendship is built on love, support, and understanding, which are crucial for every relationship. ...Read More

Marriage is a beautiful thing; however, it takes hard work, commitment, and perseverance to love each other unconditionally and to value the relationship. When couples decide to dissolve their marriage, they may find it difficult to manage the impact their decision can have on themselves and their loved ones, especially their children....Read More

In Nigeria, the rate of marital separation is increasing, and divorce has become more prevalent compared to the past when elderly family members acted as voices of reason. Certain mistakes made during the process of separation or divorce can trigger significant emotional turmoil, affecting both the couple and their families.

Threatening Behavior

In many marriages, threatening a spouse with separation is a common mistake, often used to make the other feel vulnerable. While some separations are essential for the health and well-being of a spouse, especially in toxic situations, the decision to separate might not be equally welcomed by both parties. This can lead to feelings of confusion, disappointment, rejection, and vulnerability if one spouse is unprepared for this outcome. It’s crucial for both partners to thoughtfully consider their decision.

Contentious Decision

Separating from a loved one can create a significant emotional void. Rushing into a new relationship before fully recovering from the previous one can be a grave mistake. Introducing a new partner during the separation process can make the situation contentious, especially if children are involved. Children may experience emotional turbulence, wondering why their parents separated, and seeing a new partner in their parent’s life can exacerbate their anxieties.

Revengeful and Irrational Behavior

Marital separation can leave couples feeling angry, bitter, and resentful, leading to irrational behavior. Some may disclose confidential information about their spouse to outsiders or act vengefully. This behavior can extend to friends and family members perceived as disloyal, impacting relationships built over the years. Turning their backs on loved ones is a grievous mistake some spouses make.

Falsehood

Children should not bear the responsibility for the failures of the adults in their lives. A common mistake parents make during separation is seeking empathy and support from their children, which can paint one parent as a betrayer. Sharing information about marital challenges with young children and falsifying stories to appear innocent can harm their emotional health and well-being. ...Read More

AN Upper Area Court in Kubwa, Abuja, Federal Capital Territory (FCT), has dissolved a four-year-old marriage between Beshiru Mutairu and his wife, Amina, for lack of love....Read More

According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), the judge, Mohammed Wakili, dissolved their marriage according to Islamic law, following Beshiru’s prayer for divorce on the said ground.

Wakili ordered Amina to observe “Iddah”, which is a waiting period observed for three months before contracting another marriage.

The petitioner had earlier told the court he married the respondent under Islamic law on March 17, 2020, and that the marriage was blessed with two children.

He said he had been having marital issues with his wife for a long time, adding that the situation had not changed despite family interventions.

He, therefore, prayed the court to dissolve the marriage, saying he was no longer in love with her.

“She does not respect me as her husband and does not pray as a Muslim should,” he said.

Amina, however, denied all the allegations against her. ...Read More

First loves often hold a special place in our hearts, marked by intense emotions and unforgettable experiences. However, they rarely stand the test of time....Read More

The innocence and idealism that characterise these early relationships often clash with the realities of personal growth, communication challenges, and life changes.

As we navigate the journey of love for the first time, the lack of experience and understanding can lead to misunderstandings and unmet expectations, ultimately causing these relationships to falter.

1. Inexperience and immaturity

First loves typically occur during adolescence or young adulthood, a time when individuals are still figuring out who they are and what they want in life. The lack of experience in handling relationships, emotions, and communication can lead to misunderstandings and conflicts.

Young couples may also struggle with managing expectations and navigating the complexities of a romantic relationship.

2. Idealisation and unrealistic expectations

First love often comes with a sense of idealisation. Young people may have unrealistic expectations about love and relationships, influenced by media, fairy tales, and romanticised portrayals. This idealisation can lead to disappointment when reality doesn’t match the fantasy, causing strain on the relationship.

3. Personal growth and change

During the formative years of young adulthood, individuals go through significant personal growth and change. As people evolve, their priorities, values, and life goals may shift.

This natural growth can sometimes lead to incompatibility, as partners may find themselves growing in different directions, with differing aspirations and interests.

4. Lack of communication skills

Effective communication is a key component of a healthy relationship. However, young couples may lack the skills to communicate their needs, feelings, and concerns effectively.

Miscommunication and unresolved issues can lead to frustration and resentment, ultimately causing the relationship to falter.

5. External pressures

First loves often face external pressures such as parental disapproval, societal expectations, or the stress of managing school, work, and other responsibilities. These pressures can add strain to the relationship, making it difficult to maintain.

6. Exploration and curiosity

For many, the first love experience is a time of exploration and curiosity. As individuals grow, they may feel the need to explore other relationships and experiences.

This desire to understand oneself and one’s preferences can lead to the end of a first-love relationship as people seek to learn more about themselves and others.

7. Lack of long-term compatibility

First loves may be intense and passionate, but they may not always be based on a solid foundation of long-term compatibility. Without shared values, interests, and life goals, it can be challenging to sustain a relationship over time.

While first love can be a beautiful and formative experience, it often doesn’t last due to a combination of inexperience, idealisation, personal growth, and other factors. However, the lessons learned from first love can be invaluable, helping individuals grow and prepare for future, more mature relationships. ...Read More

When the person you obviously love asks you why you love them, it can understandably reduce even the most self-assured among us into deer in the headlights as you watch the entire life of your relationship pass before your eyes....Read More

No matter how many cute, sweet and romantic things you find to say to the person you love on a regular basis, when you’re hit with one of these humdingers out of the blue, knowing what to say and how to say it can be absolutely mind-boggling.

Before you get too overwhelmed, take a deep breath and collect yourself.

There’s a reason the person you love is asking you why you love them. It’s likely they are feeling insecure about your relationship, and, even more likely, that they are feeling deeply insecure about themselves. They may be finding it hard to love themselves, in general or in the moment, and they’re looking to you — the person they trust, love and value above all others — for validation they are worthy of love and they are, indeed, lovable.

Look the person you love in the eye and, if possible, hold them in one of those close hugs that tells a fellow human being they are not alone, that they can count on you, and that you’ve got their back. Then, tell them all the wonderful things you know and feel are lovable about them.

Be honest. You do love this person, so there are bound to be plenty of reasons that naturally come to mind.

You could talk about the emotional connection you share with them, the way they make you feel, and what they are doing when they make you feel it.
You could talk about the specific traits, qualities or characteristics they possess that you admire, such as kindness, confidence, strength, resilience, humor, beauty, loyalty, and intelligence.
You could talk about what your relationship with them adds to your life: fun, passion, happiness, support, comfort, and growth.

After spending years working with couples and individuals who have been through a breakup or divorce, it seems that there are problems that keep coming up over and over again....Read More

Wouldn’t it be nice to know the signs of divorce, so we can figure out where to really concentrate our efforts and can give our marriages the best chance at survival?

Here are 6 marriage mistakes that lead to divorce, and what you can do to prevent them from happening.

1. You talk to friends about what you think your husband did to you.

Friends are often more upset when they think their bestie is being mistreated than when they’re experiencing the same mistreatment themselves.

Besides, most of us don’t really understand how our conditioning and wiring as women differs from our husbands’ conditioning and wiring as men. That’s why conversations about men with female friends often lead to husband-bashing that helps nobody.

The solution: Limit talking about your marital problems to just two people (like a trusted friend along with a coach or therapist).

2. You think that talking about these problems with your husband is the answer.

All too often, women think that talking to our husbands is the way to make them see how their behavior affects us. If the behavior doesn’t change when we first bring it up, we want to talk more, longer, or louder, because we think maybe they didn’t get it the first time.

One of the biggest pet peeves for men is that feeling of being nagged, especially if they don’t know what the problem really is.

Also, the rules of polite, kind, nice conversation that women try to follow often come off as indirect, manipulative and mysterious to men. Women often conclude that their husbands don’t care, because they haven’t changed after a particular conversation.

The solution: Learn communication skills designed specifically to talk with men and spend more time doing fun activities.

3. You believe that your happiness depends on your husband changing.

Research has shown that happiness does increase when your husband changes for the better, but that change originates with you. On the other hand, the women who focus on becoming the person they want to be, rather than on how to get their husband to change, are happier down the road.

The solution: Focus on being the best you.

4. You and your husband live parallel lives.

Living parallel lives with your husband is the slippery slope to disconnecting completely. The bonds of marriage thrive on having an interest in one another, working toward common goals and spending time with one another.

Couples who are trying to reconnect after their children have left home often come to realize that they don’t know each other anymore.

The solution: Take the time to know what’s important to your husband and let him know what’s important to you.

5. You negatively focus on what’s wrong.

One of the most difficult scenarios is a couple in which one or both people are stuck viewing each other through a negative lens, expecting the worst.

Our brains do a wonderful job of seeing what we expect to see, and we are much more likely to view our husbands as doing everything wrong when we have developed a negative view of them.

The solution: Balance your concerns with a positive view.

6. You say these deadly words: “I deserve…”

These words need to be banned from your vocabulary. The mentality that goes along with using these words includes a form of entitlement that kills the softness needed for a couple to cherish one another.

Saying “I deserve” is inherently a demand. It’s very different from knowing internally that you are worth more and having the communication skills necessary to ask for more. Knowing what you’re worth helps you inspire your husband to cherish you.

The solution: Focus on knowing your own worth — understand what’s important to you in a relationship, and learn how to ask for it. ...Read More
