 SINGLE LADIES; Are you ready for it??????? Most of us singles don’t know what it takes to be a
good wife. We just want to get married because all our friends are married or we are getting old. Ask Yourself
am I a wife material,,,,,,,,,,, if I get married do I have what it takes? it is not all about changing of status but been happily married.

The following are some of the things we should learn
and prepare ourselves to do

1) Protect your union.- By this I mean protect it from negative outside influences. Your mother, sisters, brothers, girlfriends etc. This is not to say u wil not talk to them at all but be careful of what you say. Many
times when we are airing our grievances to friends/family we tell only one side and paint a picture that is one sided and a bit inaccurate. That can create unnecessary tension between outsiders and your
husband and the truth of the matter is you need to
be working things out with him.

2) Pick your Battles- Every battle is not to be fought
choose them wisely. Some of the trivial things that gets on your nerve, choose to let it go. By no means
am talking of abuse (of any sort) or disrespect but
not every little thing risen to the occasion of
confrontation.

3) Make Time for Intimacy- This does not mean just
sex. When you have a busy hectic life and so does
your mate it is easy to get caught up in putting quality time for each other off until “later”. Life is
short and when things get rough this time is needed
more than when things are going well. It will help to keep you connected and give both of you a chance
to lean on each other.

4) Never forget why you fell in love- remind each
other often. So very simple but, so easy to forget. Just
do it.

5) Take responsibility for making yourself happy- Nobody can make you happy and it is unfair to
expect that of your partner. Do what you need to do
mentally, physically and spiritually to keep yourself
in a good place. Communicate by any means
necessary, the space and time you need to make this happen and return the favor.

6) DO NOT COMPARE YOUR RELATIONSHIP TO ANYONE ELSES- You never know what is going on behind closed doors and it will do nothing to help your relationship. There will always be couples who
appear to be happier, doing better or worse than
you. There is no comparison everyone’s situation is unique.

7) Do not Lose yourself in your marriage & continue to grow. – Never lose your sense of self remember he
chose you for who you are never lose sight of that
and continue to grow and evolve as an individual.
