How Long Should Engagement Be? #Gettingmarried #Courtship





 
Flirty & Feisty Romance Novels are available on Amazon
 
 

Last week, after we heard of another couple whose marriage had hit the rocks, my husband asked me a question: "How long should the courtship be to achieve a forever marriage?"


I paused to consider. My engagement period was about eleven months or less. Although, my husband asked me to marry him the first time we sat down together in January 1999, we got married in December the same year.

Within our eleven month courtship period, my husband visited my flat almost daily. He came at 5am in the morning on his way to work and after work.

While I thought he was very charming and attentive at the time, he told me after we got married he dashed in and out of my flat at will to CHECK if I was a party girl and to find out the kind of woman I was - first thing in the morning and after work.

I had no idea I was on a 'test' of some sort. I enjoyed seeing him so frequently, I did not query his intentions.

So now, can you help me answer the question:

In your opinion, how long should a courtship period last to help couples understand themselves enough to settle well into marriage forever?

If you have an opinion or answer, please share it. I'm desperate to find out what you think.

How Did He Propose? #WeddingProposal #Marriage

After watching several movies, TV programs and reading countless romance novels, I want to find out how many ways a man can ask a woman to marry him in reality.

If you're married, do you recall how your husband asked you the most important question - will you marry me? How did you react? 

Hopefully, the memory brings back colourful butterflies into your belly.

And if you're single, what's your dream wedding proposal? What's the ideal way for Mr. Right to
propose? Will the sight of your fiance going on one knee, holding a glittering gemstone in his open palm sweep you off your feet?

Better still, if you're engaged, how did your sweetheart ask you the all important question that's going to change your life? Did you burst into tears of joy or did you laugh in surprise?




In my case, my husband's proposal was totally unexpected. It was our first date. We only just met! We sat on the carpeted (with linoleum!) floor in my flat in Lagos. After a three hour getting-to-know-each-other-chat, he paused.

My husband popped the shocking question - 'Will you marry me?' There was no ring at the time of proposing, only the life changing question.

Did I cry? No. Did I laugh? No. I was too stunned to react. So, I remained silent for a few minutes, quietly asking myself if he was the one.

The answer I received was unusual - absolute peace in my heart. Then, I said a cool, 'YES'

Afterwards, the lovely chaos of engagement began. That was almost fifteen years ago. He's the best lover and husband ever! Thank God.

Yours may be more dramatic or different. 

It is your turn to indulge us.

Please share and thank you for reading.

Are You Single and Searching? What If she isn’t Beautiful?


Are you single and searching for a wife? If so what are you looking for? What’s more important to you? An extremely attractive woman? Or a woman you can trust? A
woman who can turn heads wherever you go or one that you can laugh, argue and relax with?

What’s more important in choosing someone to spend the rest of your life with?

Check: Is she industrious, hardworking and seeking to make profit from her business? Is she able and willing to reach out to the needy? Or is she wrapped up in fine cloth of selfishness and self centeredness?

Does she take time to dress up in fine and graceful outer clothing? But her heart is as cold as ice! Is she honourable or will her attitude bring you disgrace? Does she speak with kindness and wisdom? Does she care about everyone in the family or she has eyes just for you? Above all, does she fear the LORD?

There are too many marriages splitting in two...

A sour relationship eats away at your bones. Remember, fleeting and fading beauty wrapped in deceitful charm will bring you abundant sorrow.

My advice: 

Go and find a woman who will complement you, laugh with you, cry with you, encourage you when you are down, celebrate with you when you’re up...and above all, a woman you will love, cherish, be faithful to and pray with all these days of your life.
