Don’t marry someone you have dated — Woman gives shocking marriage advice
A woman has sparked widespread debate online after advising people not to marry the same person they have dated for years, arguing that long-term relationships often remove the excitement and respect needed for a successful marriage.
In a viral video circulating on social media, the woman openly stated that she would not recommend marrying a long-time boyfriend or girlfriend when the time comes to settle down.
“When you’re ready to marry, I would not recommend the person you used to do relationship to be your wife, sincerely speaking, or to be your husband.”
Long-term dating may weaken marriage, she claims
According to the speaker, many couples become too familiar with each other during years of dating and may lose the respect and excitement that could have strengthened their marriage.
She argued that some partners experience too much together before marriage, including arguments, disappointments, and unhealthy behaviours.
“No respect. She spoke to you in any manner. You spoke to her in any manner. You have seen yourself finish,” she said.
The woman also claimed that some couples have already gone through nearly every stage of life together before officially getting married.
“You’ve seen yourselves happy. You’ve seen yourselves sad. Some of you went physical on each other. You’ve done extreme things.”
Questioning what would remain new after years of dating, the woman concluded:
“Finally, you now say, okay, so what is going to be that thing that is going to be exciting in the marriage?”
