You are Naa and also Nhyirabea, this is already loss of identity. Most of the women on Joy fm home Affairs think they have achieved a lot and are divorced because they have no respect for their husbands.

You should consider taking up courses on Christian Marriage/Courtship counselling Madam. You have experience to back it up. As a happily married person I can testify that finding and sharing life with a person of the opposite sex who also has deeply held Biblical beliefs has been a fulfilling experience. Contentment in marriage did not happen overnight. It did not happen after 1 year or even after 5 years rather it was a gradual process over many many years and it is still a work in progress. As a young couple from very diverse backgrounds we learned to appreciate each other's strengths and bear with each other's failings. Don't get me wrong,- we still get our "bust ups" and squabbles ( the last one was only a few days ago and we do it quietly so the neighbors don't hear us!) but we have learned to admit when we are wrong and learned to say sorry promptly to each other when we have caused offence. Yes we experienced challenging times especially during the early years when we earned little money and the future sometimes looked rather uncertain. We learned to adjust to each other's personalities, strengths and weaknesses, adjust to each other's cultures, adjust and compromise in our food preferences , we learned to be frugal and disciplined in our spending ( this applied more to me to be honest) and learned to stay out of debt by living within or below our means. Our little 2 seater 12 year old car kept going for another 5 years until we clocked over 90,000 miles and it became cheaper to buy a new car rather than attempt to repair and insure it. We both didn't care what friends, relatives, neighbors or even fellow church members thought of us or what they thought of our "rust bucket car". We learned early on never to allow ANYONE ,even family members, friends or anyone else to come between us.
The more diverse a couple's background the more urgent they need to guard or protect their relationship from potentially toxic inputs from friends or even well-meaning close relatives especially during the early years of marriage. It helped that we lived (not intentionally though) away from a lot of folk we knew which allowed us to safely make those painful early adjustments required in all marriages.
MUTUAL RESPECT
MUTUAL CONSIDERATION
ENCOURAGEING ONE ANOTHER (IN OUR CASE THROUGH REGULAR DAILY SHARED PRAYER TIME AND STUDYING THE HOLY SCRIPTURES TOGETHER- THIS IS DO-ABLE.HOW MUCH TIME DO WE SPEND DAILY ON TV?).THERE IS NOTHING LIKE STARTING THE DAY AND INVITING GOD INTO YOUR DECISIONS AND CHOICES
AND PLANS,INCLUDING THE BAD ONES WE MADE PREVIOUSLY. "COUPLES WHO PRAY TOGETHER TEND TO STAY TOGETHER".PRAYER IS AN INVALUABLE ,VITAL AND POWERFUL RESOURCE GOD GIVES US IN MARRIAGE.
There is nothing more powerful than a spouse who calls you impromptu to come so that you can pray over an issue or a spouse reading to you a portion of scripture because you are feeling low or discouraged. This is part of growing together as a Christian couple over many many years.
Looking back our courtship periods was marked by regular interactions with other Christian friends who shared the same values as ourselves. Prayer featured prominently during the dating and courtship period and has continued to remain a regular feature throughout our marriage. While still single and before we had met we both had read extensively Christian books on Courtship and Marriage and really took to heart the Biblical principles they encouraged. Abstaining from sex before marriage was therefore much easier because we were both already well prepared. We knew how to and were willing to avoid any God-dishonoring entanglements .

I could say a lot lot more but space will not permit this.I posted examples you took umbrage at from my own life experience or what I have observed in the lives of other people I have had interactionns with in my life. These reflections and musings are referenced from the "School of life " spaning many decades. It is our hope that others especially younger folk will glean something useful and be better able to prepare for life's often difficult journey.
Don't you think Ghanaians can also be articulate, write or comment succinctly and clearly? Why do you devalue your race?

As I am hear let me further clarify that my spouse and I come from different races, different cultures yet we have striven to live purposefully for Christ and God has been good to us.
We have experienced adversity and overcome.We have sometimes endured rejection and overcome.We have not only survived being sometimes ostracised,scandilised and marginalised but we have gone on to thrive.As it says in Psalm 23 "he lays a table before me in the presence of our enemies". Some relatives and "friends" predicted a collapse of our marriage within a few years - we are still going strong after a few decades (some of these folk are themselves now divorced).Our detractors enemies and naysayers have had to endure the excruciating experience of watching us feast at the banquet table while they looked on helplessly.
HOW WE HANDLE REJECTION OR ADVERSITY DETERMINES WHETHER WE GO UP OR GO DOWN, WHETHER WE WILL BE SUCCESFUL OR NOT.
Nothing beats a supportive spouse.A couple united in purpose will leverage their God giving strengths to achieve a lot not just for themselves but in order to be a blessing to others.GOD BLESSES US BEST WHEN WE LIVE BEYOND OURSELVES. Over several years we saw our meager income and resources which (we faithfully shared with GENUINELY NEEDY FOLK even though we were ourselves often in want) mushroom several fold. We have never allowed these blessings to get to our head because all that the Lord has given us are nothing but mere RESOURCES but our MOST PRICELESS POSSESSION HAS BEEN AND WILL REMAIN OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD THROUGH CHRIST- THAT IS WHAT NOBODY CAN TAKE AWAY FROM US,EVERYTHING ELSE CAN BE LOST OR STOLEN OR LOSE VALUE.

There is no marriage in heaven, your partner on earth is irrelevant. Stop making religious noises over marriage.
The men the creator used had several wives and concubines. It never stopped them from being called holy.

Lack of experience? How do you get experience in something you haven't done before? Lack of Experience as interpreted by Naa Nhyiraba Armoo is a non-starter. If that was your second marriage, then we could be talking about experience. And let's get this straight: Nothing that the marriage counsellors tell you can adequately prepare you for your own marriage since every marriage is unique so it is obvious this woman has been comparing her marriage to the fairytales that she had been listening to. MARRIAGE IS NOT A UNION OF TWO PERFECT INDIVIDUALS.

Biggest mistake women make is choosing a guy and forcing the guy to choose them back. The man would never respect you if that happens and you will soon find him looking else where the least chance he gets. Women come around but men don’t do allow the man to choose you. If you stick around a bit abd he doesn’t look like he wants you as a wife, move on. He’s never going to marry you. How many times haven’t you seen men date 10 years only to marry another woman they met barely a year into dating.

So would you rather you married your description of a God loving man who would not love you for who you are, value your authenticity, be your companion and friend like your husband is to you now? I'm struggling to understand how your husband can be all of those things that made you choose him in the first place, if he were not God fearing and God loving. You are still very naive. Grow in wisdom and value your husband.

A divorce lawyer not long ago blame high divorce rate on counseling at Churches that paints a perfect picture of how marriage should look like. No one should expect any two marriages to be the same, couples need to figure out what best works for them and adjust accordingly over time.
