Former minister of Aviation Femi Fani Kayode has been divorced twice and had kids with his previous wives. Many online termed him not good enough to maintain a stable marriage till Precious Chikwendu a former beauty queen stepped on the scene.
When I read some posts on social media telling single women that when they get to a certain age, they are only left with options of marrying old or much older men who may be deadbeat, I laugh. You see posts like, '' If you are 35 and above, female, no man between the ages of 30-35 will want to marry you''. They make it sound like the persons case is closed and the younger a spouse, the happier your marriage.
So I SAT BACK AND PONDERED. Is it actually a function of age or a function of the individual who treats you well, treats you right and is functional enough to carry out their responsibilities effectively in the marriage? While Femi and Precious have a huge age difference, HE TREATS HER RIGHT AND PERFORMS HIS DUTIES! That to me is what is most important.
A lady or guy could marry earlier but to someone who doesn't treat them right, effectively carry out their responsibilities, neglect them, treat them with disdain etc. Do we then conclude they are happily married?
I'm no marriage expert or counselor , but I can summarize selecting a potential mate as thus
MARRY THAT PERSON WHO IS FUNCTIONAL , RESPONSIBLE AND TREATS YOU RIGHT!
