DON’T BE A MARRIED ILLITERATE

As I sad down and plan to get Married I vividly remember a number of novels I read some years back and thought of writing this out to my wife to be and the public whom might not be able to read the same novel before and after they are married, so here comes some ideal to help both married and on married men and women.
My inspiration comes from DR. KATHARINE BEMENT DAVIS; general secretary of the bureau of social hygiene, whom once induced a thousand married women to reply very frankly to a set of intimate questions. The result was shocking –an incredibly shocking comment upon the sexual unhappiness of the average American/African adult. So what about you in the world as a whole? According to Dr. Popenoe, failure in married is usually due to four causes, Listed below:

1. Sexual maladjustment.
2. Different of opinion as to the way of spending leisure time.
3. Financial difficulties
4. Mental, Physical, or Emotional abnormalities.

This question keeps puzzling my mind and it goes thus: “Is it true that sex is admittedly the most important subject in life?” It is admittedly the thing which causes the most shipwreck in the happiness of men and women by Dr. Popenoe.


Some rules to make your home life happier

1. Don’t nag.
2. Don’t try to make your partner over.
3. Don’t critical.
4. Give honest appreciation.
5. Pay little attentions.
