Star actress, Foluke Daramola, has said that a major way a woman can understand her husband is to see him as her son or brother.
Daramola notes this as the 10th anniversary of her marriage to Salako approaches.
It is her second marriage which, she says, she is resolute on guarding jealously in spite of some negative rumours about it.
She is not happy that some people recently said her marriage was in trouble, saying it is a pity that such folks delighted in telling lies against others.
In an interview with ‘Saturday Punch’, she says on what sustains marriages:
”
“It’s been a journey, not minding the fact that this is my second marriage. I have learnt a lot, most importantly tolerance and love, and (to) believe in the best of your partner. I can say categorically that I’m a fulfilled woman, and I think I am more mature now. Marriage is a progressive journey; one doesn’t sit back and expect everything to be all rosy. Wedding is just paparazzi, marriage is hard work and there must be determination for it to succeed.
“I’m an advocate against all forms of abuse at any level, be it in marriage, parenting, or elsewhere. In marriage, there are bound to be differences between individuals, but if a couple understands the principles for which they are married then they will surmount whatever challenges come their way. Love conquers all, according to the holy book. A woman has to see her husband as her son or brother and understand him. At least our parents sustained theirs (marriage). I believe that tolerance is the bedrock of a marriage.”
