A businesswoman has said that doing everything to please your partner isn’t the key to a Excited marriage. She added that submission is also not the key. She went on to share what she believes makes a marriage Excited. Using her marriage as an example, she wrote: ‘The key to a Excited marriage isnt doing everything to please your spouse or submitting like sugar dissolving in water. The real key is for kind, properly brought-up, and mentally sound individuals to find each other and marry. ‘Youll never have to try too hard. Ive done things that, if it were with koromoto men, the marriage would have ended long ago. So Im not married today because Im perfect or do everything rightIm married because I chose someone mentally sound and, may I add, properly brought up. ‘The mindset of an individual is the most important aspect. Once the mind is broken, nothing you do will be enough. Youll keep working yourself to please the other until you break down. And this isnt even a gender thing, both men and women sometimes overstress themselves just to make marriage work. Its not supposed to be that way. ‘There are things that sound normal for a man to do for his wife in marriage, but I stop my husband from doing them. Ill just say, Babe, dont worry. I remember when I had my boy in the hospital. We were supposed to go home, and my husband knew it was right for him to come get me, he had planned to. ‘But an urgent meeting at work came up, so he called his sister, who is also a serious career woman, to pick me up. She called, and I told her, Madam, dont worry. Before she will even make the plans, I got our office driver to take me home. My husband came back feeling weird, like, I should have I told him, Nonsense, you didnt need to. No drama, no scenes. ‘There was also a time I noticed he wasnt eating well. I decided I would make food for him to carry no matter what. One evening I prepared everything and told him, Please wake me up when youre about to start getting ready so I can quickly mix the food. ‘I woke up to see him knotting his tie, about to leave. I said, Babe, I told you to call me. He didnt say a word. I raised my voice again, But I told you to call me so I could quickly boil rice and mix the sauce. ‘He said, Roberta, you know Ill never wake you up too early to make me a meal. Why should I wake you up? Any day you wake up on your own, thats the day you should make it. Any day you cant wake up, it means your body isnt ready for that stress, and I dont want to eat from such stress. It dawned on me that were just the type who dont like to stress each other. If youre putting in too much effort just to be loved, youll eventually wear out. And when you cant keep it up anymore, the union will naturally give way.
