Have y'all ever spoke to your parents about marriage/relationships?

If so, what was their advice? Did they have any regrets or interesting stories?

Looking on TV nowadays it seems like damn near every man is unhappy about his relationship for some reason or running away from marriage. And even at home, sometimes I look at my dad and I think to myself, "This nikka doesnt seem as fulfilled as he should be."


He has a:

PhD
6 figure job.
House with a value thats appreciated to 7 figures
A daughter that is an angel and more successful than he is
Three handsome sons to be proud of
Well respected in his community (Almost became an Ambassador but rejected it :ld:)
Is on a first name basis with Ghana's former president

etc etc.

Many accolades. But for some reason, it seems like his soul is lost sometimes. If he isn't with his friends and is at home he is often on some :what: or :snoop: shyt. Maybe work is annoying I dunno...but something just isnt right. I wouldnt be surprised if he cheated/cheats on my mom either. Don't really care to be honest. But one day I'm thinking of asking him what regrets he has in life especially with regards to women. I'm curious to see his answer.

So did you make this thread to brag about your dad or what?

Parents give good advice but most times you dont want to hear what they're talking about. Parents often suggest in some way that you submit to your mate and treat them good, friends. :sitdown:

I talk with my mom about it all the time. My parents marriage was and to this day is a complete disaster so I learned a lot from them that they didn't tell me explicitly. So many lessons

I have yet to meet a man who is happily married...Especially one who has been married for 10 plus years...

At best, a dude can be content with his condition, and go on with his life in blissful denial...

But a married dude who is happy and excited to drive back home (on a regular day), and be with his wife and children is RARE...

Only happily married dudes are the ones with low sex drives...

My dad always told me just wait, and be as sure as possible before marriage. He was on his 3rd.

Ghanaian marriages are something I wonder about breh. When I used to go to church, everything seemed great looking at other couples of course, but since I've grown up and heard stories or just thought things through, you can kind of tell they're all shams.

I've heard stories of men/families from my church molesting their daughters, cheating, selling dope. It's crazy looking back. My friend even told me about finding his dad texting an escort one day. That shyt mustve crushed his soul :wow:.
