    Men, we need to understand one thing.. Marriage is a place of service for us, it is not a place to just receive. We spend our days sowing into our wives and children, cultivating into their lives and we reap the benefits in the long run. If you marry thinking u will receive something, that's not the right attitude. Marry to serve, to give and to sacrifice. Boss, marriage is not a holiday for men, its a lifelong purposeful project. Having said that, only men who are content in themselves, men who have clear direction and purpose, men who are mature, should marry. A wife will never satisfy you on the inside, that empty space u have on the inside is for your father and God to fill. Don't put it on your wife

    This conversation is proof of concept that things dont always go wrong, they start wrong. I know most single people in their thirties and late twenties have the pressure to get married and fit in but my people, live your life, love yourself, invest in yourself, interrogate why you need to get married, be true to you, committed to you and make conscious decisions or you will end up being a divorce statistic. I am happy Amani chose himself and choose to co parent instead of staying caged for the children.

    People should stop expecting perfection from church members. Once you are there long enough you will realize that they are just humans prone to make many mistakes so don't expect much just because it's church. Don't leave church because you were hurt. The moment you stop expecting much, the more free you will be. That doesn't mean some church people are not saved. Everyone is at a different maturity level and some show more grace than others, others go to church for their own reasons that are not religious related, even those in leadership.

    Marriage is for a God ordained purpose and when you are pursuing purpose it's not happiness all the time that's why you have to stick there even when things are tough.When people marry for selfish reasons they get disappointed when those tough moments. The key to marriage is grow together, work together, stick together and have a forgiving heart because there is a lot to forgive each other,alot.Don't come with unrealistic expectations. Marriage works because of two very imperfect people who refuse to give up on each other coz that's what true love is about.Perfect marriages are only found in one's imagination's. Good marriages are not found,they do not come,they are made by two imperfect people who refuse to give up on each other.

    Marcus seems like he was not emotionally mature for the reality of marriage, that is why he jumped ship - and seems to blame his ex-partner - when troubles rocked his boat. At no stage of the interview does he take responsibility or accountability for his failed marriage. But anyway, this is his side of the story, and a lesson to all. Marriage takes work, and commitment, and communication. You might idealise others who have been married for many years, and think they have their shit together - but the truth is, we all experience challenges. If you marry someone who is coming from a hurting place, allow them to heal first, or walk with them through their healing process. If not, please don't get married.

    I like that you talk about being a catalyst. We should never have gotten married and NEVER had children together. So many red flags I chose to ignore. In my marriage we both were - he who cheated and me who shut down. Do I hate him no? Does he hate me? He continues to share that hatred - in my opinion - not just with me but with our children - in his mind there can only be one right and therefore the other one is wrong! I chose not to fight his thinking. And that has impacted our children. They have been forced to choose - and I chose not to fight their decision because I couldn't afford to financially support my children. He said to them their financial support depended on their loyalty to him. I told my babies to play to that - my relationship with them wouldn't be changed. It has been. i'm their financial failure and yet their emotional and psychological support. Im sorry I failed my babies in that respect, It's more than finance

    k chebet Chebet, first a true believer will not be caught in infidelity or sexual immorality for that matter. Sin is born from carnal desire and something like immorality or even bribing for example takes deliberate thought and decisions. We call ourselves Christians when we're not even trying to live up to the word of God. Secondly, if God forgave you and moved on what would happen to you? Note that both Jesus and Paul said if one does divorce as a believer then they are not to remarry. So are the divorcees believers or not, is the the question. Our definition of forgiveness is horribly corrupted in that regard. Have a lovely week!

But because in the beginning the people I chose to reach out to did not have the best interests for me at heart. And this made the whole process more heart wrenching. Am grateful that I got out of it. But there are people out there dealing with it on their own because they have no where to turn to. So how would you help them out?

    Thank you for this. Gives me a clear perspective on men's emotions. I always encourage people to be honest with themselves. If you want to get married, do it but if you don't make it clear from the start. Marriage isn't for everyone. Do what works for you. As Caroline Mutoko said, "Things don't go wrong, they start wrong."

    Marriage = Man + Woman. Whatever problems that happen in marriage are a consequence of both parties and not just the man. Also, even if the man wants to work on his marriage and the woman isn't ready, it'll fail. Thus I find it unfair that you seem to suggest the marriages fail because the men are not compromising.

    @k chebet I totally understand someone not wanting to work on their problems because sometimes you just don't see the light at the end of the tunnel. I also understand that no one wants to be married to a spouse who cheats. However, I have a problem with her saying men play the victim because that invalidates all the men going through actual problems in their marriages. It also invalidates the psychological turmoil that comes with the break down of the union and the resultant fear that a man experiences when his family life is on the line.

    Our problem is cultural- we have been conditioned to a narrative that 'Masculinity' means being strong. Hence men should not show weakness. Men are human, with feelings! It is about time men are 'given permission' to express themselves and this means being able to go to hospital and expressing mental health issues, sexual issues, discussing financial issues and marital issues openly etc without being made to feel that they should 'man up'. Consequently we will lower suicide epidemics, alcohol abuse, save marriages and also nurture the boy child which then enriches communities and generations.. may God heal our generation.

    Who is this society though? If we take it that society is at least 50% men, and say for arguement's sake that a solid half of it (the women) is not interested in hearing them out, that leaves a good number of people to potentially talk to - fellow men. I still feel it's their responsibility to make safe spaces for each other to talk and air out their issues. Who better to understand a guy's issue than a fellow guy? Who funny enough is also the one most likely to tell a man who's suffering to man up 😂. A large part of the solution is within themselves.

    I have been married for 10 years now, and over the years it has been emotional and physicological torture. I have my flaws so does she, but she doesn't want to help me fix. I have said IT IS OVER more than 4 times but the thought of leaving the kids without their father has kept me home. My wife changed and her weapon is silence. We don't talk, she doesn't respond when i initiate conversations to solve our issues. She says all is ok. But it's not. I want to move on, I want to walk away and start afresh (I don't have a side chick fyi). I dont understand why I have to be with her when she doesn't express her feelings for me. I just feel our marriage is draining me as there is no emotional or physical support that I get. We have been in a sexless relationship for almost six months. I agree with these men, men are hurting in silence. I need help.

    One of these men is clearly threatened by a wife’s right to express displeasure when/how she needs to (excluding violence of course) and with the right to expect her man to try to understand her too. But she needed a grown MAN for that. Funny he talks about “courage“ near the end. Total contradiction. He likely did her a favor by leaving.
