Former Miss Uganda Stellah Nantumbwe is truly still single and with good reason. Her standards are way above average and she is unapologetic about that. Stella states that she is not under any pressure to get married hence she won’t settle for less so she went ahead to reveal the qualities of her ideal husband.
In her early thirties, Stellah Nantumbwe is still single. She is quite religious and virtuous as well. She believes that marriage is not an easy thing to handle and hence should not be rushed into because there are several things to consider before deciding to settle with someone, after all it is a lifetime commitment.
“Marriage is not something you rush into because it is purposeful. What are you going to do when you get married, and for how long? Most people get married for the wedding…and then what? Did God send you there? Did you even ask Him? So you end up in situations that you don’t necessarily appreciate. For me, marriage is a very big issue. I intend to only marry for a purpose regardless of what people see outside.” She said.
She also noted that as a woman, she definitely possesses specific qualities including maturity, hence she is truly ready for marriage. She then mentioned that some women fail at marriage because they fail to be submissive to their husbands.
“You have to be a certain type of woman to succeed in marriage, truly. You have to be grown, you have to have wisdom, you have to have perseverance, patience and to be okay to submit. Some people haven’t yet found that submission,” she says.
She also went ahead and listed the qualities of the ideal man she would want to get married to and the most important was for him to be her safe space, a space where she can develop and grow. She also mentioned that she desires a biblical marriage where a husband loves his wife and the wife is submissive.
“The person I marry has to be able to create an environment in which I can thrive. The husband will create an environment in which I can thrive. Biblical marriage; “husbands love your wives as you love the church, wives submit.” She said
