Get to know your partner before marriage - John Dumelo

Actor John Dumelo has taken to social media to advise his fans to concentrate on getting to know the people they intend to marry than just hyping their relationship on social media.

He wrote the following on Facebook this morning:

.....focus on what will make the marriage work. The pre wedding shoots, the Social media hype, the big wedding, the cars, the gifts, the expensive food all will mean nothing if you don't focus on the work that will make the marriage last. After that day, it will be left with you and your partner in the room alone...everyone's gone. Just the two of you.

Get to know your partner before marriage, be friends, spend time, make time and always remember to place God first. Also Don't get married because of your in -laws name. "Oh, I'm getting married to the prime ministers son/daughter, "oh my mother-in -law is Africa's richest". Names don't make marriages work! Besides, those with the "names" these days worked hard to get to where they are. You have to work hard with your partner too! Don't focus on the destination....work on the journey. ?#?melomoment? ?#?melotivation?
