Marriage... What's The Worst Thing That Could Happen?

Google Images
"I, ***, take you, ***, to be my lawfully wedded husband/wife.
To have and to hold for:
Better or worse, Richer or poorer.
In sickness and in health...'Til death do us part"

 Scary those few words are... 'til death??? I mean that's a binding life long commitment that scares the heck out of me.
What if things don't go as planned? What if this your lifetime partner happened to be the wrong one? What then? I know you can't just quit but then again you don't stay just because it's what is expected of you.... or do you? And with kids involved? oh my goodness don't get me started. 

 So, simply based on my past experiences which by the way weren't so great, I have been left unsure and afraid because well... here is a guy, he appears to be everything I'm looking for so I let my guard down and allow him into my heart/life. Few months in and it's all good. 1 year in and still going good. 1.5 years in and boom... jerk boyfriend unleashed. The lies, cheating, disrespect. I swear it's like when you don't care about a guy and give him little to no attention, he is all over you. Fall senselessly in love with him and he does a full 360° on you and treats you like dirt. Why? I will never know. 
Not that that's how all guys are. I just seem to have the worst ex boyfriend record, and it has affected me so much so that when i get a really good guy I just think something's up and my suspicions get the best of me and I end up pushing the good ones away.

So because of this I'm just really afraid of marriage because one can't just walk away and end it as simply as one can in a mere boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. I don't know what to expect. I don’t know if it'll be good or bad. If he'll be a serial cheater or not. If he'll love and respect me or not. If he'll be the best father he can be or not. If he'll treat my family well or not. If he'll be supportive and understanding or not. If he'll be one of those over controlling husbands or not.

I don't know if when I do get married it will be a happy and fulfilling union with two people so in love and willing to do whatever it takes to make it work

I just don't know. And that uncertainty kills me.

    Wow , you've covered everything. Unfaithfulness seems to be a necessity that most men cant do without. Attracted to the body, in love with the moments , and not scared to move on seems to be the way forward for most men, but all thst can be changed provided You're hopeful that the right guy is out there. #nevergiveuphope #evenwhentheydo

Hey! It's been a minute.... yes, a really long minute 🙈 I know. But I'm back!! Woop woop. The festive season is upon us and we all want to look good because why not?? So I'm here to help y'all look good on a budget so you can have enough money left over to go out and celebrate.... you're welcome, you know I gatchu *insert high five here*. So, last year I had written an article on thrifting, or salaula if you may, on the Trendition-Z page, follow the link >  HERE  < . I gave a few tips on how to go about it so you will definitely find it useful. (Read it!!) A while ago, I happened to find myself in DAPP because they had clothes going at K8... K8!!! How could I walk past that?? So I got the vest and knit sweater in the thumbnail picture above for K8 each and felt pretty good about my purchase. Problem is, the vest was way too long as you see above. Ended up looking like a really short dress so it was idly sitting in the closet until I got a light bulb m

He Can Get it Two

Thought it was time for an update on the He Can Get It post... and so here goes: I had talked about the repulsion effect in that post... and had been thinking heavily about it. About how we tend to love the people that hate and hurt us or the ones we would never have a chance with. You know, the guys that make plans with you and you go all out to get ready. The perfect outfit, face beat, hair did and smelling good and then *ring-ring* he can't make it, all or most times but because you're so into him you keep putting up with it. Or the guys we're willing to lay it all for because we think we've found "the one" but he cheats and betrays your trust more than you know but when you find out, you forgive him because you love him. Then there's the guy that has you feeling all kinds of good. The almost perfect guy that knows just what to say to get you hooked and high on him. He's fun and exciting.... and in a relationship. You know you shouldn't

Death's Selective Mourners

Hey y'all.... so yesterday the 4th of April there was a bus accident in which it is reported about 6 people died. Tragic. Especially for the families of the deceased. But... all over social media I only kept seeing condolences to one family. The one whose daughter was a bride to be. Of course absolutely nothing wrong with issuing out condolences. Only problem is this tendency to only feel remorse for and talk about the "celebrity". I'll explain. If there are 2 or 3 people in a vehicle and of those people one of them happens to be a famous person and then an accident occurs, the only person or person's family that will receive tons of love, remorse and have posts of condolences sent their way is that of the famous person. And this really bothers me because do the lives of the other victims not matter and go unnoticed because they were unknowns? No. Every life matters and cannot be measured or valued by one's level of popularity or wealth. So back to yes
