In an era where marriages seem to be ending way faster than they started, there are still married couples that very many young people out there can use as an inspiration.
Currently, the biggest fear among young people is the fear of committing to one person, choosing them all over and then getting disappointed by this person in the end. Many people, during a split up even when they have not been married usually tend to get about the time they have wasted while investing it in a relationship after it has failed.
We all recall how the way the long term union between musician Jose Chameleone and wife Daniella Atim ended bitterly and currently, they are the worst of enemies as Daniella keeps coming out to attack Jose Chameleone. This is proof that so much hatred could exist between people that have been sharing a bed not so long ago (this is indeed proof of how fast the night changes, don’t you agree?)
And what about the marriage between Media personality Canary Mugume and Sasha Ferguson. It left netizens divided, right? I mean come on. Who never knew the history of Sasha and Canary? Having started out as a young couple, they held each other’s hands through every adversity and won together only for them to reach the top and crumble? (Make that make sense)
Netizens have surely been shaken by the split of many people in the past few weeks and many debates have surfaced online, with people asking whether marriage is still as credible as it was back then, citing that maybe there have been more changes in the marital system than people are actually willing to acknowledge.
This has led young people to question what exactly it is that one needs to do in order to maintain a beautiful, happy and long lasting marriage. Musician Irene Namatovu seems to have the right answer for everyone. According to Irene Namatovu, the secret lies in understanding your partner above everything else.
“You need to understand each other. If you are getting into a commitment with someone, you need to know them well and they also need to get to know you well. It does not just stop there. You need to refrain from things that make your partner angry. It is not just about knowing what makes your partner angry. You also need to stop doing it after you learn your partner does not like it.” Said Irene Namatovu in an interview with Sanyuka TV
Keep in mind that Irene Namatovu has maintained a very healthy marriage with hubby Geoffrey Lutaaya for o long years now and by the end of 2024, they will be making 10 years in marriage.
