The journey of two people together for
better or worse is never easy.
But with complete dedication, love and
tolerance for each other, the challenges
that may beset the marriage can be
overcome.
Genevieve Nnaji is yet to get married
and explains what her criteria are for
choosing her right partner, She said:
“As for marriage, it’s every woman’s
dream to get married. We can’t lie to
ourselves. I do want to get married but
overtime I have had opportunities to get
married but I realize getting married is
not actually the problem. The problem
is finding someone you are compatible
with because I’m born Catholic, I’m
raised Catholic, I don’t believe in
divorce. If I get married, I really want to
stay married and staying married is not
an easy thing. It means you are
completely in tune with your partner. It
means you’ve found your soul mate
because you’ll have to be able to stand
a lot of disappointments that would
definitely come but then again you have
to learn to forgive.
For me, before I choose a partner I have
to ask myself if this is the kind of
person I would be willing to forgive no
matter what when the time comes. If
the answer is no, then that person is
wrong for me. That person is not the
person you want to get married to. If
you know you can look into someone’s
eyes and say yes, this is the most you
can do to me. If you actually cheat on
me the first time, I can find it in my
heart to forgive you. If you can answer
that question honestly and truthfully to
yourself then you’ll know if that person
is your partner or not. So compatibility
is the word aside from the physical
attributes that have to go with it.
I need to be comfortable because I’m a
woman and I’m used to a certain
lifestyle.”
Even though the person may say they
can forgive even when she cheats, can
that be guaranteed? And will that not
let some partners go ahead and cheat
because they know they can be
forgiven?
