Three Reasons why pre-marriage counseling is good for you

Write-up by Ayoola Adetayo

Marriage is meant to be forever, and if you are dedicating your life to something, you need maximum information, right?

Considering the rate at which marriages transform to divorces, it will be unwise of anyone not to be prepared enough before going into it.

Every form of advice is needed before venturing into marriage, and this is why pre-marriage counselling is a very important thing for couples preparing for marriage.

Below are three reasons why you should never pass up the chance to get pre-marriage counselling...

1. It’s a form of approval

Most times as Nigerians, we often choose to get marriage counselling from our religious leaders, and it is totally OK, considering how deeply religious most Nigerians are.

Going for marriage counselling sessions with your religious head does not only afford you and your partner the opportunity of getting prepared for the married life ahead of you, it also serves as a form of final approval for your wedding ceremony to go ahead, if, after the counselling sessions, your Imam or Pastor says, you and your partner can go ahead and marry.

In addition, there is a strong likelihood that each meeting with them will include some prayer sessions too. That’s an added advantage, right?

2. Third party intervention

While discussing marriage and reaching compromises, you and your partner might have few unresolved issues.

Discussing these issues with a third party [marriage counsellor] will create a better chance of finding a common ground on them.

3. The experience will surely benefit you

Whether you go meet a professional counsellor or you choose your religious leader, chances are that they are married and they have a lot of experience in what you are yet to begin.

They would be answering your questions from both their experience and the experiences of several other people they have helped over the years.

This can only benefit you and your partner – in more ways than one as a matter of fact.

Their dating story began in December, 2009 and their married life started this January, 2017. Read their journey below alongside their wedding photos taken by Christian Livingstone.

The beginning

Prisca narrated: "We met in February, 2009 at Rivers State University of Science and Technology. I was on my registration/entrance clearance and Oliver was on his final clearance."

They met in University

"When he saw me on that faithful day he immediately walked up to me but I was a bit cold of course I had to do "shakara"and I gave him a wrong name and tried to dismiss him but he insisted and requested for my number and I did give him my number and we spoke a few times on the phone."

They started dating 10 months after they first met.

"Fast forward to October 2009, we met again in the same spot that we did the first time and while shaking hands we couldn't stop staring at each other and smiling; right there I knew he was the one." 

"By December, 2009, we started dating and it's been bliss since then."

The Proposal

time, I was based in Lagos and he was in port Harcourt.

He had it all planned out with my sister and I had zero idea about it. He called me the day before and said he was in Lagos and I laughed in disbelief but then an hour later he surfaced at my doorstep."

"He asked me my plans for my birthday, which I told him and he advised me to go with my friends to Sheraton hotel in Ikeja (unknown to me, he had made reservations already) and I agreed."

Oliver surprised her in Lagos on her birthday, then proposed.

"While we were having fun in Sheraton, he suddenly called for everyone's attention and stood up to make a toast. That was when I realized what was about to happen: he knelt down and asked me to marry him and of course I said YES to my one true love."

Though Prisca and Oliver were in long distance relationship at one point, they found a way to make it work because of love. Now that their life as man and wife has begun, they hope to "build a beautiful life together as a family and make heaven together."

She gushed over he new husband: "I love his kind hearted nature, his smartness and above all the love I see in his eyes when he looks at me." Oliver also made sure to voice out his favourtie qualities in his sweetheart: "I love her calmness and her understanding."

Oliver loves how calm Prsica is, but we love her fashion sense and flawless beauty.

She slayed perfectly in all her outfits.

Prisca concluded her story with the unforgettable marital advice: "Know what you want and know you deserve better. Don't be in a relationship because you are lonely or because of societal pressure so when the right one comes along you would be available."
