She is what the Lagos based tabloids call a SOCIETY WOMAN, the type that clichés like ‘most society shindigs are incomplete without her in attendance, rumoured to have dated WHO IS WHO IN NIGERIA’.

So this particular caption of her gist (on the front page of a tabloid) screamed ALL MY MARRIED FRIENDS WISH THEY WERE ME or something of that nature. I didn’t doubt that claim for one minute because I have since realised that a lot of the problems that arise in some marriages is as a result of people WISHING TO BE SOMEBODY ELSE …rather than making efforts to work on their REALITY.

I am not comfortable when the EQUAL RIGHTS sermon is brought into a relationship/marriage. The old fashioned girl in me sees such as a sermon for the WORK PLACE AND OTHER SOCIAL INTERACTIONS. Marriage is NOT ‘benefits’ to be divided into two equal parts but a COMMITMENT (by two individuals) to become ONE-in every sense of the word. Be careful how you use words that end up entrenching SELFISHNESS in your relationship/marriage.

I will rather preach FAIRNESS when it comes to RELATIONSHIPS/MARRIAGE. Personally, I would desire nothing more from one who sees me as he sees himself, treats me like he would treat himself, sees mine as his’ and his’ as mine. When ‘fairness’ is the bedrock of a marriage/relationship…’rights’ don’t matter. Who drags ‘rights’ with him/herself-anyway?
