Before You Say I Do

Cohabitation shouldn't be an option for a true believer, it doesn't matter whether or not you guys do anything, it's a box that should never be ticked.On this series we look into the dangers plaguing cohabitation.

The longevity of your relationship/marriage depends on the type of people you surround yourself with and also the type of people you get advice from consistently.

Sometimes the battles you are facing is not one personally of your own making but of the making of your friends or family members you involved in your relationship/marital dispute with your partner.

Instead of 3rd Parties, use authority  figures to settle issues in your relationship/marriage if it cannot be settled by you both because,authority figures can never be as biased  as 3rd parties.

When you allow third parties into your relationship/marriage, you're indirectly delegating your job in the relationship to the person(s), which will see them invading your space at every given opportunity and this can ultimately ruin your relationship.

Third party involvement is the reason most relationship/marriages pack up and in worst case scenario, never enjoy the luxury of reconciliation.On this series we will generally be looking at the effects of third party interference in relationships.

Peace in the relationship/marriage is as important as fuel is to a car. You can't enjoy a relationship without peace and the relationship will never grow if there's no peace.

The way to know a relationship/marriage is working, is the level of peace enjoyed in the relationship.On today's episode we continue to share ways you can keep the peace in your relationship.

The greatest desire of anyone in a relationship or marriage is not to have plenty money, yes money is good and important in a relationship/marriage but it isn't as important as having peace, as enjoying abundance of peace in your relationship.

For any relationship/marriage to be successful, the peace must be consistently kept for that to happen and that will take both partners to achieve, so a peaceful home is very important for a healthy relationship.

Today, we look at other areas to have an honest and sincere conversation about during the talking stage as you get to know your prospective better.

Talking is stage is a stage to find out things about each other,whether they be negative things or positive things,anyone not utilising it, is wasting precious time they would have used in knowing more about themselves.

Discussion during the talking stage is very important, infact it helps to prepare both partners in advance if they begin dating against any eventualities or uncertainties.

Talking stage is for talking and not for touching, the constant problem a lot of people have, I mean the ones who haven't been talking and rather have been touching is that,they realise later on how much time they have lost and regret doesn’t make up for that. So, on today's episode, we explore more topics to discuss during the talking stage.

Majority of people intending to go into dating do not know how to maximise talking stage, they do not know what to discuss and that's why they go into relationships without  fully understanding the person they are falling in love with but with this series,  we'll  help them with information regarding  what to talk about during the talking stage.

So, on this last episode of this series, we'll be discussing even more ways one can differentiate between true love and obsession

Relationship is meant to be about two hearts and not one.When a relationship/marriage starts being about me instead of us, it will begin to show signs of obsession because true love is never about one person but both persons in the relationship.

Everything associated with true love is easy to handle no matter how the situation may seem, no matter how overwhelming the situation may seem but is not so so with obsession. Today, we look at more differences between the both of them.

Obsession is mostly mistaken for true love whereas, it isn't so,on this new series, we'll be dropping several points to shed light on the distinctiveness between love and obsession.

Today, we end a four weeks journey as it concerns godly deal breakers. We would be talking about some more godly deal breakers that every Christian should be aware of.

Dating without any boundaries will promote disorderliness in any relationship. Dealbreakers aren't there to complicate the relationship but are rather there to uncomplicate them.

Relationships is beautiful when it is done rightly, within the confines of godly principles. On today's episode, we explore more godly deal breakers in order to avoid dating wrongly.

As a Christian, you don't date the way the world dates, you don't go into relationships to please your flesh but date in a way that pleases God and this is what will serve as a guide when identifying dealbreakers.

We conclude our 4 weeks journey on Red Flags vs. Green Flags today, by dishing out more ways to identify a person who is interested in you.

Green Light can be so loud and bright but often times always overlooked by some ladies/guys due to some past hurt and negative experiences from previous relationships. On today's episode we'll be talking about how you can identify someone who is interested in you.

Some pains are unnecessary, some quarrels are unnecessary, and even some heartbreaks are unnecessary if only you could have avoided entering into those relationships by not overlooking the red flags.

You don't have to be treated poorly or in a bad way before your realise that you've been dating the wrong person and even worse about to be married to the wrong person, if you can sense the negative signs early enough you will avoid the hurt later on.

Dating doesn't have to be stressful and overly demanding if both partners are fully invested in it to the point that they can already see their future together as a couple.

The moment you start taking dating seriously, that's the moment you'll probably start dating the right persons who are interested in taking the relationship to the permanent site (marriage).

When you date for fun, you almost are certain that the relationship wouldn't end where you both are expecting and that is "in  marriage". On this episode we will be looking at how you can date with the intentio. Of marriage.

Dating is a serious business, just like any other business out there and, as such, should be taken seriously and done intentionally with the purpose of marriage at heart.On today's episode, we'll be seeing how one can practically date to get to the permanent site,which is marriage.

Dating doesn't have to be boring, doesn't have to be filled with so much seriousness but ultimately has to be done purposefully.And on today's series opener and the entire November, we will be teaching on how singles can date purposefully with marriage intentions.

The needs of every human being is endless but for the purpose of this series, we've narrowed it down to a select few that are important to the success of every relationship and marriage.

The needs of men and women are inexhaustible and that is why on today's episode,we will be adding other aspects of the needs of both men and women.The needs of men and women are inexhaustible and that is why on today's episode,we will be adding other aspects of the needs of both men and women.

Everyone has needs in life to function better and it's no different when it comes to relationship, everyone who enter into relationships has his or her needs that they need met, so in today's episodes we'll be looking at some more needs.

Relationship / Marriage will be easily successful when the man/woman prioritises their needs rather than their wants in the relationship.On this series we'll be looking at those needs as it relates to both genders in a relationship.

The fact that they are not clearly spelt out doesn't mean that they aren't there, bounderies are an important part of every relationship and marriage because without bounderies there'll be lack of order and proper behaviour in Relationships and marriages.

Relationships is beautiful when both partners have mutual respect for eachother and also especially when both partners respect the boundaries  in the relationship.

Bounderies in anything are not there  to fully restrict but merely there to serve as a bit of control to the level of acess  one enjoys in a thing and in this aspect, in the relationship.

Everything in life must have a limit/bounderies to it in order to avoid abuse, just like drugs, if you don't have a limit to how you take them, it may harm your organs and in this case your relationship is no different as well.

Forgiveness also shows maturity whenever a person is willing to Forgive an offender despite being severely hurt by them.

Forgiving someone who has hurt you is never easy but choosing to forgive instead of punishing your offender shows true strength even in the face of deep hurt  from your partner/spouse.

Being the first to forgive  everytime isn't  a sign weakness rather it is a sign of commitment, commitment to the wellbeing of the relationship no matter how much hurt you partner has put you through.

Forgiveness is not a request but a command from God, when you begin to view Forgiveness ftom God's lens then you can never go wrong because there's no love without Forgiveness.

Sexual Abuse isn't  something to take lightly and as such those  who have been through it should be given the proper care to be able to heal properly and completely.

Sexual Abuse is one of the most difficult  form of abuse to go through and come out without scars or serious trauma but  with this series we'll  be looking at various ways to deal with sexual abuse from its root.

Sexual abuse happens almost everyday but not everyone involved have the ability or courage to come out but on today's episode we'll seeing ways you can deal with it properly.

Many people are suffering from the effects of sexual abuse and find it really difficult  to navigate certain aspects of their life especially their relationship/marriage  because they've not dealt with the problem from the root and this is what this entire series will help you do if you're  currently in such a situation.

Your behaviour in your relationship is equal to the level of success you will enjoy in it. So today we end our 5 week journey as we look at other areas we can behave well to get the best out of our relationship.

One of the most attractive things in a person is good behaviour and anyone with a good behaviour will generally be a good fit to be in a relationship with.
