24 Things A Mum Teaches Her Daughter Before Marriage!!
My daughter, don’t
cause a separation
between your man and
his siblings; it could be
dangerous for you
when they finally speak
with one voice.
• My daughter, I know
that some of you girls
don’t wish to marry a
man whose mother is
still alive, don’t ever
think like that, if you do,
well, I think your son’s
wife-to-be should start
wishing you're dead
now.
• My daughter, listen to
me, when I married
your father, he was as
tiny as his salary but I
chose to grow with him
and today, those cars
out there are some of
the results of what we
started so little,
together, and we’re
proud looking at them.
• My daughter, there is
this thing i see
happening in your time,
some of you girls now
get pregnant before the
wedding day, well, it
never happened in our
time because no matter
what, we never opened
our laps before the
wedding.
• My daughter, well,
yes, I once locked up
the cloth of your father
because I got to my
limit of patience and
that was the only thing
I could do, but one thing
I haven’t said was that
we settled the issue
that same day and that
was the last time I
tried that.
• My daughter, look up
there. That’s the
wedding picture of your
father and I, look at him
smiling, I know you've
seen it many times but
what you did not know
is that your father was
angry before taking this
picture, I hope you find
a man whose anger
doesn't last till the next
day.
• My daughter, when
your Father was riding a
bicycle, I was always
happy to hop on it and
ride with him, not
because I didn't see
those men in their little
cars but because my
eyes also saw those
men trekking to their
farms.
• My daughter, if you
and your husband eat a
little food with love, you
both would be satisfied.
Times are not always
the same; support him
in every phase he’s
passing through.
• My daughter, don’t
ever close your laps to
your husband in bed ,
the day he paid your
dowry was the day you
lost your will to do so,
don’t be stiff and try to
satisfy him even if you
were angry with him.
• My daughter, a man
would respect you and
be more proud of you if
you’re learned and not
totally dependent on
him. Strive to make
your own money and
while you're at it, be
humble.
• My daughter, under
the cocoa tree that I did
meet with your Father
was open and good
enough for our
discussions, yes; it was
open and good enough if
you understand what I
mean.
• My daughter, in our
time, we had sexy legs
and firm bosoms to
show our men , in fact,
we had the finest ones,
yet, when we dress,
we cover those parts
of our body, not
because we were not
civilized as you people
would call it, but
because we know that
the eyes of men are
hungry, many of them
would only come, touch
and go their way.
• My daughter, there is
this thing you girls now
practice, they say it’s
feminism. Well, you can
prove to be equal to a
man in the society but
please, not in your
marriage because at my
old age, I don’t want to
start counting your
husbands.
• My daughter, marriage
is not a Rehabilitation
Centre, if he’s not good
enough for you before
marriage, nothing he
does would be good
enough after marriage.
• My daughter, you can
see I still wear my night
gown , yes, because to
my husband; your
father, I still want to
look sexy. So, take good
care of your body, look
good for your man and
don’t look like a
grandma after giving
birth.
• My daughter, I’m your
mother and still, I'm not
interested in you
coming to me always if
anything goes wrong
with your husband.
Though nowadays I see
some mothers
controlling the homes of
their sons and
daughters, I would only
say; shame on them!
• My daughter, for you
to have a peaceful
home and well-trained
children, have one voice
with your husband, join
him to say NO when
he’s saying NO before
the kids but later when
you both are alone, you
can plead with him for a
YES, if not, the
children will see a
loophole to misbehave,
either to you or their
father.
• My daughter, if you
chose to live together
with a man that you’re
yet to be married to ,
and you are complaining
that he hasn't proposed
to you, oh, he already
did. Whatever he said
that made you start
living with him was his
proposal.
• My daughter, your
generation does not see
any pride in been a virgin
before marriage, it’s a
shame! Your father met
me a virgin and he
brought more yams to
my parents and up till
today, he’s still proud of
me when we discuss in
that direction.
• My daughter, I know
that no man out there
is complete, but when
you are looking for your
tall, slim, fair and
handsome, if he’s a
woman-beater, please,
go for the short, fat,
dark and ugly that will
give you the respect
you deserve as a
woman.
• My daughter, know,
learn and respect the
culture and lifestyle of
whoever you chose to
marry . In some part of
Africa, you knee down
to greet your man’s
parents while in some
part outside Africa; you
can even call them by
their first name and ask
for a
handshake. Whatever
they believe in, if you've
chosen him, believe it
with him also.
• My daughter, don’t
ever try to date a
married man, whether
his excuse was that he
doesn't find happiness
with his wife or he
would have married you
if he had met you first,
if you ever try it, I curse
you already.
• My daughter, when I
say over 52 years of
marriage , it wasn't
that I did not see any
reason to leave your
father, I saw a lot of
them but I bear his
faults, i forgave him to
stay married
• My daughter, these
are part of the wisdom
i have gathered over
the years. and If I had
taken my time to tell
you all these, and your
marriage doesn't last
like that of your father
and I, then I had wished
i never gave birth to
you.
