Most Indians whether they are based in India or UK face a common phase in life after they reach the marriageable age. Parents, associates, and neighbors who never appear other times suddenly start bothering the eligible bachelors by reminding them repeatedly that they have reached the perfect age to get married. The online marriage bureaus are also taking full advantage of this fact and are campaigning about the idea of finding the perfect partner for life.

What Happens Now
Weddings are a big deal. Even if you're both just wanting a small intimate setting with just a few close friends and family, it can be a significant undertaking. First there's the matter of details. So many details. Wrangling the guest list and bringing it down to a reasonable number of invitations an be tricky, Particularly when both parties have big families. Nobody wants to hurt people's feelings. Decisions are part invitation part obligation, held together by inevitable frustration. Did we invite too many or too few? Can we afford to host this many? Can we afford not to? You know how cranky uncle Felix gets if he thinks he's missing out. (all names, characters, and incidents portrayed in this story are fictitious.

I Dare You To Love Me
Marriage. Most women think about it. Men do too, though may not so readily admit it. Many of us begin entertaining the idea, at quite an early age. We watch our parents and grand parents, aunts, uncles and even our friends take "the plunge". We observe how couples go about choosing their significant other, the person they just can't do without; their soul mate.

His Secret Obsession: Discover His Primal Desire and Make Him Want You.
There are a lot of relationship books out there. Some of them claim to be able to save your marriage, others claim to help you understand your man. For the most part, these books fail to live up to their claims and women who follow advice from such books are no better off.

Work in Marriage
See the picture above, January 16th, 2016 is the day I said I Do to the love of my life, but what I didn't realize what I said I Do to was a lifetime of work. Don't get me wrong, I love my wife and wouldn't want no other way to spend my life with her but no one prepares you for the work in marriage. I didn't have any examples to follow by growing up, my parents had a toxic marriage and divorced when I was 6 or 7 and, watching my mom and the toxic men she continued to be with and living with my womanizing father and step mother in my teen years, never taught me that marriage was ever a good thing if you work at it. My wife didn't have any good examples herself, losing her mother at the age of 11 and her father battle with alcoholism and drugs for years and even in her adulthood, he seems to carry toxic traits as well. We weren't given tools to have a toxic free relationship or marriage, but we knew we wanted love and found it in each other. We carried toxic ways and energy in our relationship of 8 years and in our soon to be 5 years of marriage and didn't know where to start. Yes we've tried therapy twice, honestly I want to say once because the first therapist seem to be bias when it was couples therapy and not individual therapy. So what's next? Well we've decided to take matters in our own hands, we separated, not legally not out of the home, but we have decided to remove things that seem to be our temporary fix and decided to try different methods, we have become less intimate, allow raw feelings to come through where conversations are less complicated to have because we just was cuddling and under each other. We actually don't annoy each other as much. We argue less, we hear each other out more. This was the work that honestly should have been done in the beginning of us but we are saving us. Once we clear the old toxic ways, we will be able to focus on the other things to work on, because we will be empty nesters in the near future and we will learn to adapt to it being just us. So for the engaged couples out there, the newly weds that are out of the honeymoon phase, the been married for a while what's next couples, marriage requires work and if you love each other as much as you say you do, understand that clearly and get to work and continue to figure out your next steps until death do you part!

The Wedding Night
All my life, my virginity was an essential thing for me. It had taken its own identity. It defined me and made me who I was. So when it came to the day that I was no longer a virgin, it was a big deal! I remember the talk of the wedding night being of importance. Culturally it was not to be spoken of until the day before the wedding night. But it was not a secret to me. All of my older married friends had given me a glimpse of what the wedding night was all about.

Twenty-one and Married
Yep, twenty one and married indeed. When I decided I wanted to get married, it seemed as if everyone had an opinion. Like literally. There were some like “finally, girl you getting old,” while others were like,” you have your whole life ahead of you.” It was a never-ending discussion until the day of the wedding.

Marriage On The Back Burner
So when the COVID-19 Pandemic started, my husband and I made the joke about coupl es during this time. Wondering how everyone would hold up under pressure. How many relationships would fail during this time? Little did I know, our relationship struggled a little during the time we've been at home. It just feels different. Almost like dealing with each other was forced. I mean, we've worked from home together for years on end. We are always in each others face, so you would think that having to deal with a stay home order would be a simple thing for us. Turns out, that was a lie.

How Much Salary Should a Man Earn Before Considering Marriage?
10 Nigerians give their thoughts. It's a very big question for people everywhere. When you're Nigerian, it's double the pressure, double the number of people who ask the question, and double the frequency of times people ask it.
